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".

Ibook g4 has died with a dvd inside. How can I get the dvd out?

Have an ibook G4 at work. The computer will no longer turn on. Seems like the hard drive has died because the battery is still lighting up. I have a dvd in the computer, though. How can I get it out when the computer won't boot up?

HI,
Even though the iBook won't boot, try the suggestions here just in case.

How can I get a dvd out of a mini?

My Mac Mini will not start. I need to get the system DVD out of the drive. How can I do that?

If the unit can not be powered up it will have to be taken apart.
The good thing is the cd/dvd rom is right on the top of the unit so you do not have to really dig into it.
The cdrom has 4-5 very small screws that once out the top cover of the cdrom comes off revealing the cd that you need.
Take a look at this.

How do I get the dvd blank tape out of the computer

I have successfully copied onto a dvd from my camera using Idvd08 One step. I did about four dvd's ok. Then, when I opened the idvd and chose "one step" and put in the blank dvd, it would keep showing on the screen the directions , when I chose "ok" it then went back to the opening icon where I would choose "one step". repeatedly. and the blank dvd is stuck in the computer. I tried holding down F!2 but that didn't work to eject the dvd. I have about 10 more movies to put onto a dvd from my camera. They are short about 10 minutes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I did get the dvd out of the computer. I finally found a direction that worked. I still cannot get the idvd to record from the camera using 'one step'. thanks for any suggestions.

How can I get my data out of a crashed drive?

I need help. Crashed hard drive. How can I get the data out?

First have to define what a 'crashed drive' is, so we'll know how to respond.
If you boot to an installer DVD does Disk Utility see the drive? What does it tell you about the drive?
If the drive is showing up but not mounting it may be possible to repair it and get the data off yourself -
But if it isn't even showing up then you may need to take it to a recovery specialist to get the data off it. This is costly and not guaranteed to always work.
Did you replace the drive in the MBP and install a new OS on a new drive?
Or is it still in the MBP and you are trying to recover it from there?
One type of 'crash' is a head crash, usually caused by a impact or jarring to the drive while it is spinning which bounces the heads off the platters. This removes some of the magnetic media off the platters typically rendering it unrecoverable.
So first priority is tell us precisely where you are with this drive, what you see, what you have tried, what the symptoms are, and what you need to accomplish.

Keep the (left) mouse key down while booting.
Use Disk Utility to eject the drive.
Try eject key on your keyboard.
There should also be a little hole in the front of the DVD player where you could insert a paper clip (last resort).

I can't get the DVD out of my mac

I'm trying to get the DVD out of the machine . I tried to restart the machine and hold down the mouse, but that still does not work. Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thank you

Force eject a stuck cd/dvd
First try the normal methods to remove the disc. Drag its icon to the Trash can in the Dock or select 'Eject' from the File menu.
If you are running a virtual machine, e.g. VMFusion, ensure that the CD is disconnected from the virtual machine. This will sometimes allow the CD to now show up in Mac OS X.
Shut down the computer and start up whilst holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared.
If you have Toast Titanium installed on your computer, choose EJECT DISC from the menubar.
Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder
Open Disc utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button.
Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism.
Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray.
If your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button.

How do i get a dvd on to my iphone

how do i get a dvd on to my iphone

What media was it recorded on? If it's a VHS tape, look into a "capture card" like the Dazzle series. If you recorded on DVD, use Handbrake or a similar program to compress it into an mpeg4 or other video file compatible with iTunes.

HT3413 How can I get composite video out of the 13" early/mid 2009 MacBook?

OK, the Mini-DVI - DVI Adapter "works with" the 13-inch, Early and Mid 2009 MacBooks.
But can it combine with a DVI to S-video and composite adapter so I can play video from my MacBook (one of the above) to my TV (composite input)?
It is stated in many places that the Mini-DVI to S-video and composite adapter doesn't "work with" these models, and I've proven that's the case.
But I can't find anywhere that explains why, or says more than "works with," or just tells me how I could get any external video from my MacBook other than VGA which is useless to me as far as I can tell.
Thanks for any help!
