TS2839 disc drive makes unusual noise when dvd is inserted

When i insert a dvd, my macbook makes strange sounds.. it doesnt stop until i eject the dvd

In general you normally will hear a whirling sound coming from the cd drive while a cd is spinning. If the cd has any labels on it might make the cd unbalanced then you might hear an even louder vibration coming from the drive. Otherwise as long as the cd is working in the drive and mounting it should be normal. Was the cd not showing up for you?

  • Disc drive makes strange noises

    I just got my macbook and from the very start whenever I insert a disc it makes a noise like its popping and breaking internally. the disc will play fine, but the sound is SO wrong that its worrying me. Has anyone else had this problem? Was it just something wrong with the disc drive?

    I think what your hearing is the drive sorting itself out, mine makes quite a racket when you first put a disc in but its fine, i think it is standard across the range. To make sure it would be worth comparing to a friends or listen to one in a shop.
    Cheers.

  • Optical drive makes weird noise when CD/DVD is inserted, won't play

    OK so...When I put a CD or a DVD into the optical drive, it makes this weird consistant sound that, while i feel like an idiot typing it out, sounds something like: eee ooh ooh eee ooh ohh eee ooh ooh.
    It does this for a couple minutes until it responds to me pushing the eject button.
    Anyone know what this is?

    I would guess a hardware failure.

  • Ipod HD makes cracking noises when turning..

    My HD makes cracking noises when I try to search a song, or photo..
    I have him for 3 weeks now, and he didn't do it before. It just sounds like normal hard-drive sounds my old computer makes, but in my opinion it's not normal.
    anyone experience with this?

    I had that problem too before.
    I waited for 2 days and it stopped.
    My friends banged it on the floor and it was perfect (exepet for a small dent.)

    Go to Settings>Notifications and turn alerts/sounds on for the app(s) in question.  Not all apps have all options.

  • Is there a way to set up a dial tone or a way for someone who is hard of hearing to have the phone set up to make a noise when I hold it up to my ear?

    Is there a way to set up an dial tone or set the phone up to make a noise when I hold it up to my ear when i use it

    I'm also not sure what you want to accomplish by this. Until you hit the "call" button, the phone is not 'off hook' like a traditional landline would be. There is no such thing as a dial tone on any cell phone. The dial tone was simply a carrier signal from the central office that prepared that end to listen for the pulses (later tones) generated when you dialed.

  • My thunderbolt display makes a noise when plugged into my macbook pro laptop

    my thunderbolt display makes a noise when plugged into my macbook pro laptop. It sounds like an electronic noise which doesn't come through the speakers. Any advice how to eliminate this?

    Could be a poor ground.  Try plugging the monitor directly into the wall (no power strip) and see what happens.

    It may very well be a RAM issue but possibly something else.  Look over this extensive troubleshooting document for a possible solution:

    Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

  • My ipods screan is black and it wont turn on but it still makes a noise when i plug it in to the charger. can anyone help?

    my ipod isnt turning on but it still makes a noise when i plug it into the charger can anyone help me?

    Hey there cameronw99,
    It sounds like you are unable to see your iPod Touch screen, as it stays black but it makes the connection tone when you plug in the USB cable. Use these steps to resolve the issue with the iPod from the following article:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    chttp://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • HP 15-d041TU DVD-ROM HP UJ8FBA makes a noise when not using

    Hi everyone, here comes another problem from my newly bought HP, i sorted out nearly every issue that came along (packed) with this driver less laptop, now i have a issue that dvd rom makes a noise as if pick up is moving every once in 5 minutes, there is no disc in the drive, and i am not using it at all. I opened it and closed it doesn't seem to help. So after numerous searches i did this!
    1. ) Disabled Autorun of Windows 8
    2. ) Did a hard reset, i don't know if it's correct. "Hold the power button for 15 seconds" when computer is swtiched off
    3. ) Updated the bios again, it was updated i think but i did update again i don't know no messages about same bios etc.
    Now so far problem didn't arise, PHEW!
    What could have caused this? has anyone had the same problem? What was the solution worked for you?

    Here's the solution, it's not the drive that makes the sound. it is the hard drive, lol hardrive is located in the right bottom of the machine which i thought it's in the left. Even when i have the drive ejected it still makes the noise so it can't be the drive right?.
