Hi Brett:

Did you have a problem with all CD.'s or ones that were burned with something 
other than ITunes?  Just curious as to whether to take mine in or not?  I've 
got some CD's that were copied from old record albums I have.

I experienced the same symptoms with my Mini last week.  I took it to the Apple 
Store and they determined the optical drive was bad and replaced it.

HI:

I've got a Mini that has a problem with some CD.'s too, particularly ones that 
have been burned without using ITunes.  I don't know if they are in a strange 
format or what.  My drive makes a horrible noise and then the action you 
describe.  It's hard to get the disk out.  It might spit it out if I left it 
long enough.  My husband's Mini does it too with the same CD.'s.

dvd player refusing to play dvd's?

2010-02-12 Thread Jessi and Goldina
hey guys
the cd/dvd drive on my macbook has been doing some weird things lately. it'll 
play most cds and dvd's, but it's iffy on my glee road to sectionals box set. 
there are four dvd's in the set, the first 13 episodes of the show. sometimes 
they'll work, but most of the time they just spin and stop and spin and stop 
and finally the dvd player spits them out. they're not mounted to the finder 
and the mac doesn't seem to have any recognission that they're inserted except 
for the spinning and stopping before spitting out.

I've tried cleaning the dvd's and it doesn't make a difference. does anyone 
know why it might be doing this? I hope there's nothing wrong with the drive! 
but I don't think so, cuz it works with other cd's! and sometimes with the glee 
ones too, just not all the time! it seems to have a mind of its own about when 
it wants to work!
