Why isn't the icon on the desktop when I insert a CD?

Is there a place where I can "pull up" the CD? There isn't anything on the desktop like there normally is. It's a fairly new CD. TIA

I ran into a problem like this a while back - there's a quirk in the default setting of the "CDs and DVDs" preference panel for a blank disk. If this is a blank disk, open the preference panel and check that the settings are useful. Blank disks work much better for with with "Open Finder"; check the setting of the other choices there too.
Good luck!

  • How do I stop my MacBook clearing the icons off the desktop when I switch off

    How do I stop my MacBook clearing the icons off the desktop when I switch off the machine?

    Hi Matt
    After I create say a word document, file it on my desktop and then shut down my machine. The next time I open up the MacBook the file icon has been removed from the desktop. I can still retrieve the file in a folder labeled with the month I created it. But why has the OS removed it from the desktop and how can I stop it happening?
    It happens to alias icons as well!

  • Why isn't the edit button not showing in my ESX24 sampler?

    why isn't the edit button not showing in my ESX24 sampler?

    Is that during installation when you see the two icons.. the one on the left looking like a Garageband guitar icon, the one on the right like the Logic Pro platimum record icon?
    Yes.. that one.. with the choice to click on which option you want/are coming from...
    p.s. I'll probably aquire a Mac Mini this fall then upgrade.... I mean repurchase!
    I think I managed to grab one of the last of the 2011 refurb'ed MMS's.... at that super low price Apple were selling them for... before they bumped it up and now, they seem to have none left at all at any price
    However, just in case, I have found this site really useful at keeping track of Apple's refurb stock... and pricing

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why isn't the plugin checker working anymore?

    I check for updates to my plugins very often. The Plugin Check page has been saying that all my plugins are up to date. However, twice now I've clicked the button to check anyway, and found that a plugin was not up to date after all. Why isn't the Plugin Check page detecting when my plugins need updating?

    I don't know what you guys have been doing at Mozilla but you've ruined a decent product!

    I think that the Spam Detector runs before your custom filters, and custom filters only work on the inbox folder. If Spam Detector moved it from the inbox before the filters were run, then the filter wouldn't delete it.

  • Why isn't the iMessage working on my phone? Up until 1:45pm today it was fine, but now it isn't working.

    Why isn't the iMessage on my iPhone 4s working? Up until about 1:45PM today it was working just fine but now it sends it as a text message. I have tried everything in the setting but it still is not working. Any tips would be great! Thanks!

    It should be back up now, they had a system outage. Reset your iPhone.

  • Why isn't the Apple store working?

    Why isn't the Apple store working? I wanted to buy a iPad but I can't because the store isn't working. When will the store start working?

    Apple is in the midst of announcing new products and they normally take the Apple Store offline while a keynote is in progress. The Apple Store will be back up when the keynote is over. Try back in about a half an hour or so.

  • I have deleted all emails from my ICloud email account but my manage storage still shows that the mail is using 9.7GB.  Why isn't the number decreasing if all emails have been deleted?

    I have deleted all emails from my ICloud email account but my manage storage still shows that the mail is using 9.7GB.  Why isn't the number decreasing if all emails have been deleted?

    It might be caused by storage "buffering".  If so, the space will adjust automatically when another iCloud feature uses the space previously allocated to your deleted email.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4873.

  • Why isn't the Youtube app on my iPod?

    Why isn't the Youtube app on my iPod?

    I also think that it was a mistake for them to take away the Built in YouTube Application but you could always try to download it from the App Store because their is now an YouTube app i have tried it and it works fine but it is just not the same as the Built in one
    Hope this solves your issue
    Hope they bring back the Built in YouTube App on the next IOS Update.
    Best of Luck

  • Why isn't the App Store and iTunes a choice for an app on my mini?

    Why isn't the App Store and iTunes a choice for an app on my mini?

    Either they've been moved to another home screen or dropped in a folder, in which case doing a search or resetting the Home Screen layout (Settings/General/Reset) should bring them up, or they've been turned off in General/Restrictions.

  • Why isn't the App Store letting me install and update apps to my iPod Touch 3 Gen.?

    Why isn't the app store letting me update or install Apps?

    Because like a computer, you always need more space that the download size takes up.  One reason is that the app needs to be expanded to be installed.

  • Why isn't the first generation iPad not supported by iOS 6?

    I am totally confused. Why isn't the first iPad supported in iOS 6?
    iPad 1: Apple A4 1GHz processor and 256 mb RAM
    iPod Touch 3G: 800 MHz processor (same as iPhone 3GS) and 256 mb RAM
    iPhone 3GS: 800 MHz processor (underclocked to 600 i believe)

    3GS is still sold officially and new. iPad first generation isn't. Android is even worse about things like this.
    PLEASE don't branch this into twenty different threads, and keep it in the two that already exist.
