Hi Peter,

Have you tried opening Terminal app and typing "drutil eject" (without the quotes).?

See if that will eject the CD.

Cheers,

Hi Daniel
No, it's still stuck in the laptop. I left the computer off all night to perhaps cool off and tried again this morning. I can hear the mechanism trying to eject the disk a couple of times but it doesn't appear, it then stops trying to eject it. Anybody any other suggestions to try? It's going to be interesting telling the library they'll have to wait for their CD's, and why.
Regards
Peter
