Apple drives in MacBooks do not support mini DVDs. They cannot be injected or ejected properly. Some of them work in tray-loaders like on the Mac Pro.
Yes, make an appointment and take it to the Genius Bar.

  • HT201249 I would like to sync my iPhone 4S to my MacBook Pro, so that I can restore to the iPhone 6, I just bought. When I plug the 4s into the Mac Book Pro, Itunes doesn't recognize it and says that I need to upgrade my phone to Itunes 11.1.

    WHat do I do if my iPhone 4S won't sync to my macbook pro, and my phone doesn't seem to upgrade to itunes11.1? The upgrade should be on the iTunes upgrade page, but there's no icon.

    There must be something wrong. You should update the iTunes on your Macbook pro to make iTunes recognize your iPhone. For more details, check out:iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X - Apple Support

    Hi micjhal,
    Call them up! If you look on your receipt it'll indicate you have 14-days to return it (if bought at a retail store) and 30-days if bought through the online store.

  • Can I put a mini DVD into my Mac?

    I am trying to transfer my home movies onto my Mac from mini dvds.is it ok to put these mini dvds into the Mac slot??

    Do not do that!!!!!!!!!! The user's manual expressly warns you not to insert anything but standard sized CDs and DVDs. Mini discs will get stuck and not eject.

  • Wanting to access iTunes library on our iMac from our Mac Book Pro

    Hello - Can anyone help?
    Wanting to access iTunes library on our iMac from our Mac Book Pro - home sharing is switched on and can play both via Apple TV but how do I copy a playlist from the IMAC library to my library on the Mac book pro.

    Hi Michael and thanks for your help.
    I had worked out how to play the itunes library as I did find that page but I can't copy anything.
    As soon as I click on Music (from the shared library on the Library-pop-up-menu) I get my husbands library which is good and we can play it. But we cant figure out how to copy and cant  do step 2 (as per below) as we can't find the "Show menu at the bottom of the iTunes window, choose “Items not in my library.” Any further advice?
    Many thanks...Elaine
    Import items from other libraries using Home Sharing
    Choose a computer on your Home Sharing network from the Library pop-up menu.The library loads and a list of categories appears.
    Choose a category (Music, for example).
    In the Show menu at the bottom of the iTunes window, choose “Items not in my library.”
    Select the items you want to import, and click Import.

  • Putting a CD & DVD in the Drive? am i'm doing it The Right Way?

    i'm little bit new to this iMac cause i just bought a iMac 24 inch Computer in July of 2009 & i needed to know this, when i put a CD or DVD in My iMac Computer am i'm soppose to push The CD & DVD into The iMac Computer? or is there soppose to be another way? cause when i want to play a CD or DVD I been pushing them in there & i'm not really sure if i'm doing the right thing, so i was just taking pre-caution that if i'm doing it the right way?

    Hi Apple4Ever556: The CD/DVD needs to be pushed gently, approx 75% - 80% into the slot before the mechanism will engage and pull it into the drive.

  • How far do you have to sticka CD or DVD into the slot drive?

    I literally have to stick the entire CD or DVD into the slot before it picks it up. Even if I just stick it in after 85% of the disk is in the slot, it'll take it and get stuck with some of the disk outside. Is this normal? Should I take it to a genius bar?
    White MacBook Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I don't have a Macbook, but in both of my iMac's and iBooks I have to put it in almost all the way to get it to take the disc. If I try to insert the disc too slow, they tend to not get read and just spin until I eject and re-insert them a little quicker.
    Interestingly my G3 iMac was not this finicky. It would take the disc after about 50% insertion, and as far as I know ws the last slot load Mac that could safely accept mini disc,... I wish they would re-add that capability.

  • I have an SD card that my husband uses for a trail camera. The camera does not have a delete function for the pics, so I put the SD card in our MAC and we can view the pics but when I go to delete them it says that the files cant be deleted. What can i do

    My husband has an SD card he  uses for his trail camera. We put it in our mac book pro and can look at the pictures but when I go to move them to the trash it tells me that the files can't be moved to the trash because they cant be deleted. I have Nikon camera software on my mac and it pics up and asks if you want to import the pics and if you want them deleted from the devices afterwards. I tried that but I get a message afterwards that says that some files were not able to be deleted. When I go to check, none of them were deleted. How can I clean of the SD Card? I do have a camera I could stick it in, it would just be nice to know how to do it from my mac. Also, the files are jpg. if that matters.

    AFAIK cameras offer their own built-in format utility for inserted SD cards.  You should use that.  Otherwise, refer to the manual that came with your camera to determine precisely how your SD cards need to be formatted to work properly.  Personally, I'd suggest Partition Scheme: MBR, and Filesystem: FAT32.
    Try to limit the number of formats you perform on the SD cards, though, as you're reducing their lifespan.  I believe formatting causes re-writes to a portion of the SD card that has fewer read/write cycles than the rest of the card as a whole.

  • Can't insert a CD/DVD into the disc drive.  Recently installed a new harddrive, and the CD/DVD drive hardware is no longer recognized. Also, with new harddrive,  OS was updated from Snow Leopard to Mt. Lion 10.8.5 on late 2007 MBP.

    The disc drive worked fine prior to the HD upgrade and OS update to Mt. Lion.

  • My hard drive crashed and everything on my laptop was lost... is there anyway to transfer the music that I had put onto my phone into the itunes on my computer ?

    My hard drive crashed and everything on my laptop was lost... is there anyway to transfer the music that I had put onto my phone into the itunes on my computer ?

    I have a similar issue. My hard drive crashed, so I had a new one installed and I'm basically starting from scratch on my computer.  My iPhone has a lot of my stuff on it (photos and music in particular).  When I plugged into iTunes I did a "back up" of my phone to the computer....this transferred the photos in my camera roll, and music purchased through iTunes.
    So....I still have a ton of photos (saved in folders, not my camera roll), and music (older stuff not purchased through iTunes) that I want to get to my computer.  I am scared to "sync" my phone in iTunes for the first time.....if I do this, will it make my phone match my computer (effectively erasing the stuff on the phone?).  What I want is for my computer to match my phone (thus transferring the additional photos and music).  Is the third party software the only way??  Does it really work well/is it worth the money?  Thanks very much for the help.

  • How to put two mono tracks into the usual stereo view in Edit view of Audition 3 ?

    Hi guys,
    Previously I have had no issues simply using Adobe Audition 3 for simple stereo recording and editing of a stereo feed taken from a mixer... well nearly no issues....  :-)
    Today, I'm having a bad day or else it's because I'm getting used to being retired.. :-)  ......
    Query :    How do I put two mono tracks into the usual stereo view in Edit view so they both display correctly there?
    Put simply I have two mono wav files. Let's call them Left_wav and Right_wav.
    I cannot seem to get them imported into a new clean Edit view (Normal stereo track layout) so that Left_wav is on the top half and Right_wav is on the bottom half.
    Whenever I try, I just get either Left_wav or Right_wav taking up the whole of the edit view. i.e. it just shows one track.
    Can anyone familiar with Audition 3 kindly help? I'd appreciate a simple step by step... I just can't see where I've been going wrong, and it's driving me bananas :-).
    Thanks

    There are various ways to do this in Audition 3. here's one.
    Open both mono files separately in Edit view. Then convert Left_wav to Stereo by going to Edit/Convert Sample Type and under Channels select Stereo with Left Mix at 100% and Right Mix at 0%. This will give you a new stereo file with Left_wav on the top channel. Next go to the Right_wav and copy to the clipboard using Edit/Copy. Return to your new stereo file and enable Edit Right channel only in Edit/Edit Channel/Edit Right Channel. Then make sure that the cursor is at start of the stereo file and Paste Right_wav into the bottom channel of the new stereo file. Finally Save As.

  • When i insert the DVD into the optical drive, the mac book hanged....

    when i insert the DVD into the optical drive or press the eject button , the mac book hanged....
    i need to turn off the mac book by pressing the turn off button directly.

    Well there is Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck witch includes step by step instructions to run disk repair without the install disk.
    But before doing that, it's a good idea to backup. You may want to troubleshooting your superdrive / disk before hand. if I disk repair fails you may need the disk working to re-install the OS.
    Dose the computer read any DVDs? if no, you may want to use Troubleshooting the slot load optical disc drive.
