Please note: for me my cd is /dev/disk4, for you it could be something else. Short version: open terminal sudo mkdir /Volumes/CDROM sudo mount -r -t cd9660 /dev/disk4 /Volumes/CDROM sudo umount /Volumes/CDROM press eject button. Really Short version: Mount the CD manually, unmount the CD manually, press eject button. ![]() Apple dvd player not ejecting driver#Hopefully, the driver architectute in Leopard cleans up all the crazy anomolies like this - ie incomplete enmeration of use-cases (of course these ever-gowing loose threads represent the price appple pays for not using UML for design and SDL for testing!). Or more precisely, a user-level command to OVER-RIDE the 'protection' apple (forcibly) offers to users from 'accidently' making hardware 'errors'. This is a weird example of where 'pc' media will work on a pc harware connected to a mac without a driver! (patchburn doesnt really work on tiger anymore) but will NOT work on mac hardware! (apple oem drives).Īnyways, the sleep/wake seems to decouple the i/o arbitration framework in osx - which underscores the magnitude of apple's oversight viz not having created any user-based (but low-level) system command to disconnect a device. But strangely the H10N *can* burn +RW eraseables but not -RW eraseables (firmware JL10). In this case, the external dvd drive is an LG GSA-H10N (which otherwise is a totally USELESS drive on a mac becuase it cant burn S/L or D/L ±R. ![]() Yet the same (PC burned) disc caused NO such problem when plyaed back from an *external* dvd drive that was _not_ ASAS! (apple shipped/supported). My circumstance: a D/L disc burned on a pc had a couple of files (when launched) that would cause the dvd drive to grind (endlessly) - any & all access to machine it would be impossible! This disc failed on the internal (apple oem) dvd drive drive of TWO different macs - on both a powerpc mini as well as a intel C2D macbook! Another approach: * put the laptop to sleep * let the drive STOP all access to the disc (listen for whirring sounds) * wake-up the laptop the eject key should now work. It will eventually boot up and the CD/DVD will automatically eject (make sure your power cable is plugged in, though!). You tried that, but still fails? Another possible fix is the credit card/knife trick that sometimes works, but it just sounds not right? OK, now there is an easy way to do it: Just power up your MBP and leave it alone for about 10 minutes. Apple dvd player not ejecting pro#It spins for some time with a noise and then ejects it out.Įver have a problem with a CD/DVD stuck in your offline MacBook Pro and it doesn't allow you to boot up OS X? Apple mentioned the solution is to press and hold the trackpad button when booting your MBP. Apple dvd player not ejecting movie#The SuperDrive on my MBP has stopped recognizing/reading any blank DVD media (and many recorded DVDs, including movie discs). To check to see if yours does, look near the face of the CD/DVD drive and you should see a small hole. Not all drives and burners have this feature. I also see that the DVD settings are Dolby Digital: Bitstream (opposed to PCM), DTS: Bitstream (opposed to Off), and MPEG: PCM (opposed to Bitstream).Next, you can try to to force eject the CD/DVD tray. When I pushed the button, the player didn't freeze, but it says there were no files to read. I tried formatting my flash drive to "exfat" (the other options are osx formats). I had previously been able to view pictures. The player still freezes when I push the button. I deleted all the movies and put a few jpeg's on the flash drive.inside a "pictures" folder. It's hard to tell what the problem is, because it won't even look at the files on the flash drive anymore as soon as I push the button, it freezes up. ![]() Also, like I said, it played a small digital camera movie momentarily, but now won't do so. The player says "USB Plus" on a big shiny sticker on top. Apple dvd player not ejecting manual#I can't check the documentation for my player because I bought it in Korea and don't read Korean I've tried to find a manual online, but wasn't able to. Apple dvd player not ejecting how to#I don't know how to do this for my player though. I've read that players might need to be 'reset' after trying to watch a bad file. I've tried a couple different movies, as well as some TV shows.must of which I DL'ed. I used MediaInfo, because it has a Mac version:Ģ) Use of GMC (Global Motion Compensation).ĥ) Video bit rates higher than 2000 Kbps.Ħ) If you use AC3, LPCM or DTS audio, the video bit rate may have to be a lot lower than 2000, perhaps as low as 1200 for successful playback.ħ) Packed bit stream ( MPEG4Modifier can remove this). ![]()
