i left a dvd in my macbook pro for a while and now my computer wont recognize that there is even a disk in there, nor will it eject it. how do i get the dvd out?
Hold down the mouse button or trackpad clicker as you start up.
If no joy, restart and hold the Option key. This brings up the Startup Manager, which will draw an Icon for each bootable Volume. When all are drawn, the Eject key is "live". -

Disk wont recognize and wont eject
When playing DVD's, the player (VCL and Front Row) will pause at a damaged area on the disk. After pressing eject, the disk icon dissapears but the disk wont come out.
The disk dosnt show up in Itunes or anything else including disk utility.
Ive tried "drutil tray eject" and "disktool -e disk1" in applescript editor and nothing happens.
At this point the computer has to be force shut down. When it restarts ive tried holding the mouse button, and ive tired holding down the eject, as well as command and eject. This sometimes works but usually not. Sometimes the computer will just start normally and sometimes it will go to a grey screen and nothing will happen and I have to force shut down again.
Any ideas?Another help source (if you haven't already done so).

Why does my quicktime player version 10.2 sometimes read AVI video and other times it will not recognize that same file. I have a video card that sometimes it will read then the next time it recognizes the card but will not open the video. Message says "quicktime does not recognize this file.
Whats up with that ??? Any help will be most appreciated!AVI is a container just like MKV, WMV, MOV, and MPEG. It is possible to use many different compression formats aka. codecs in an AVI container.
Think of the container - AVI as being an envelope, and the compressed video in it as a letter. The letter may be in a language you cannot read even though you know how to open the envelope.
Historically QuickTime did have some built-in ability to use AVI files and some formats in those files, this used to be further improved by installing the free Perian (for Mac only). However with Mavericks Apple have removed the ability for QuickTime X aka. QuickTime Player 10 to use AVI files, it now really only accepts MPEG4 or H.264.
It is still possible to install QuickTime 7.6.6 in Mavericks and if you use it and Perian rather than QuickTime X you can still use various AVI files.
Note: Mavericks also now no longer shows previews or thumbnails for AVI files for the same reason. -

Help with Verizon Router and Setting Up a Second Wireless Router
I had my network set up until I had intermittent loss of the internet. So I received a new Verizon router and I cannot figure out how to use the second wireless router which I used to have working just fine.
The new Verizon router is the Actiontec MI424WR and it is installed in my basement and the signal is weak. However there is a cat5 wire snaked up from the Actiontec router to my home office. Currently that is plugged into the back of my computer for internet acess. My second router is the Trendnet 300Mbps Wireless N Home router. ANd this is the router that I would like to use (and used to use) to trasmit the internet connection throughout the house as well as use for a wired connection to my home security system.
I attempted to plug the cat5 wire from the Actiontec into the back of the Nextrend router (1,2,3,4 and not the WAN) but then would lose the internet signal whether I attempted to log on via wired or wireless. Must be some kind of settings I need to change.
Can anyone help me to understand how to add the second router? I am relatively computer literate but cannot understand the instructions from Verizon. Thanks in advance.

Can someone help me the people i call cant do anything and dont help me. they just take me in circles and when i get to the detection step of their so called easy set up it fails HELP!
Hmmmm, 1st define your network for us. "Help me" does not exactly suffice. Anyway, who is your internet service provider? How many computers overall do you have? How many are supposed to be wired and how many are supposed to be wireless through the router.

Having problems installing Canon MG3170. Anyone have any solutions? Here is what I have tried:-
-Installed from provided Canon disk, firstly with wireless connection, then using USB connection. Printer could not be added because the Macbook returns that the software is not available from Apple for both types of connections.
-Uninstalled software from the Canon disk, checked for software updates, then downloaded drivers (printer and scanner) from Canon Website. Again tried to install using wireless connection then USB connecton. Printer could not be added because Macbook returns that the software is not available from Apple
-Uninstalled drivers downloaded direct from Canon Website and plugged printer into Macbook using USB, Macbook recognised the printer and searched for the software, again Macbook returns that hte software is not available from Apple.
Help!nrg adjusta,
Sorry it took me a while to repsond, Ive been pretty busy with school and work. But for my hard drive problem, I did hours and hours of more research and trying countless ways of installing and tweaking things in my laptop and absolutely nothing worked that I could do. It was very irritating because I felt like I was so close to fixing it and I was just missing a step somewhere. Though It still boggles me why the disk utility shows a different capacity for the HD's. One thing I'm going to try next is replacing the hard drive cable that goes from the internal HD to the macbook. I read somewhere that sometimes those can go bad over time, and also if you get a new, modern hard drive, sometimes the old cable (for some odd reason) might not be compatible with the new HD. So i want to test it out for myself to see it that is the actual culprit.
http://www.ifixit.com/MacBook-Parts/MacBook-Hard-Drive-Cable/IF186-018
Once I get the cable and install it I'll let you know the results and if it helped at all.
Have you made any progress on your hard drive at all? If worst comes worst for you, you can probably get a SATA to USB cable and try to reformat it that way (this is the way that worked for me, but the only problem was it wouldn't be recognized when I installed it internally. Thats why i want to try getting the new cable), and if it still wont recognize it after that, you can just leave it outside of your mac, and just boot from that. The only thing that ***** about that is you have this big hard drive handing off the side of your mac when ever you need to use it.
Heres a link for a SATA to USB. this one is good because is compact and protects the HD from damage and most static electricity.

My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason. If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done. Ideas??
Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

WRT160N wont' recognize modem and other issues
To prevent a wall of text from being even taller, here are the three topographies presented in some crude visuals:
Default, Option "A"
Better, Option "B"
Optimal, Option "C"
On second thought those images are pretty tall. That totally backfired. Enjoy the art.
Option A is the default as the installation disk would have me do. I will not work. All connection indicator lights are green (or blue in the 160N's case) for the internet connection's path. The 160N will not recognize the modem and the DHCP will not work. Yes, I went into the 192.168.1.1 control panel stuff. It's set to have the internet picked up by DHCP, and under the info tab I kept trying the drop ip and renew ip buttons. Always at 0.0.0.0. During the autosetup installation, it told me it could not detect my internet and all the connection lights showed a working connection. Using the EasyLink GUI, it could not autoresolve the issue or recognize my Westell 2110 modem it was trying to talk to. I reset the power (waiting 15 seconds before plugging it back in) on each device in every order and combination possible. I've tried different cables. Nothing works. It just won't talk with my Westell 2110.
Option B I would prefer over A as I could set up better protection from the internet. It would also solve the problem of my router and modem hating each other. It will not work. My computer refuses to find which connection is the internet when I have more than one active. The windows network wizard utility does not resolve this (yes, I set it to "this computer is a gateway" and selected the modem connection as the internet and the 160N as the connection to the rest of the LAN. Still doesn't work right). I can't seem to find anything for a setting to designate a connection as THE internet connection for Windows XP, and activating connections in different orders or reorganizing them on the CP list does nothing. It sill tries to use the 160N which has no net connection or there's some kind of address conflict when I'm 95% certain both of them are set to different addresses, as I trust what the CP connection status panel says. I've never had this problem at wired LANs. It's never happend with Adhoc either.
Option C is the optimal setup. It will not work. My Xbox 360 suffered severe hardware failure when I booted it up before even connecting anything. It was working perfectly just an hour before. I'm kind of ticked off at the universe right now. Ignoring that setback, I bought the 160N on a gamble. Either it was the V1, DD-WRT supported, or V2, DD-WRT WIP. It's a V2 which means I'll have to wait. I know that the DD-WRT frimware supports using a wireless router essentially as a wireless dongle that's cheaper than the official Xbox 360 dongle and was told it could simultaniously serve as a range extending router for the rest of my home network too. Two birds in one stone, saving me about 80$. Is it possible with the official 160N firmware to do this? Would I suffer any severe network preformance issues streaming the net across an extra dongle as compared to the default topography that goes directly to/from the 160N? All wireless adaptors in my network are 802.11N compatible.
I am uncertain on the SSID settings. I shut SSID broadcast off in the 160N control panel, but I can still pick it up on my wireless adaptors. I was told I could just shutoff the broadcast, and then someone would have to know the network was there and know the SSID to find it rather than it automatically pop up in the availible networks list. It still comes up automatically, just without a name. How do I make it "invisible"? Or was my friend who told me this just messing with me?
All my attempts to resolve issues were done at first on the revision 11 firmware, and then on the revision 8. Neither work. I have already read I should use OpenDNS with revision 8. Should I just return this router and pick up a classic WRT54G off craigslist for like 30$?
Thanks to anyone who can help.

HELP HELPTo confirm, your existing mail client isn't communicating with your existing and remote mail services at Dreamhost? Which mail client are you using (Apple mail?), and how is mail on the client set up?
It would initially seem that your client is still referencing the server, either for its inbound or outbound mail. (And I'm not sure how unplugging the server helps here, unless there's some sort of a configuration issue, or a duplicate network address or such.) This would usually be something within the configuration of the mail client.
The Mac OS X Server is significantly easier than the many other servers and server operating systems I've dealt with over the years, but it requires reading the manuals and/or some knowledge of networking and of server environments.
Small shops and home folks without the time or inclination to "spin up" on these server areas can be well-served with some help initially configuring the server. Servers are different from clients. Stuff that you're implicitly used to using when you're running a client -- the DHCP server, for instance -- are what the servers provide you with.
As for Mac OS X Server and particularly if you head outside of the default settings and sequences and off into the customizations, which is what has happened here, you might want to engage some assistance. Not just for the direct and obvious initial set-up sequence, but also for getting you set-up and started with backups and other such tasks. Before you get too deep in here and get too much underway and too much saved on your disks, do seriously consider getting somebody in to help set this box up for you.
Mac OS X Server is not "no IT", but it is rather closer to "less IT" than most. Particularly once you get it configured and running. -
Ipad wont recognize wireless network

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netwhttp://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
