Does the iBook bong, boot, and function properly other wise?

If it is a slot loader and not a tray then yes these were a problem on yours I'm sure. I have a G4 Titanium PowerBook that had the same issue so I replaced it with a super drive and now I can burn anything up to a Dual Layer DVD. If you are not doing any kind of burning you can pick one up fairly cheap. I paid around $56 w/shipping on ebay for mine around 2 yrs ago.-Original Message- From: rumble <rum...@metrocast.net> Sent: Aug 2, 2012 10:55 AM To: g3-5-list@googlegroups.com Subject: g3 ibook cd drive ejects someone gave me a g6 600mhz ibook recently and i was going to try to spruce it up, but every time i put a cd in the drive it pops it back out.was this a common or easy problem to fix or is the drive just hosed?thanks -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
