Need Help Asap With Cd Rom!!!!

Hey guys!!!!


ok so I was given a CD for my presentation. Its one of those mini CD's. So I stuck it into my CD slot, and it didnt do anyhting..... it didnt make the sound like a normal cd does when it goes into a MBP.

I need to get it out!!! Any tips?!?!

bad news - the mini cd's are not compatible with slot loading drives.

eject key ? if not try apple support.

give these a shot.. it may or may not work.. seeing as these tips are meant to eject a DVD/CD and not a mini cd..

well thanks guys

but AppleCare said to take it in to the store.

OMG GUYS.....


WOW total luck.

I picked up my MBP, and tipped it- just for the heck of it, and the CD stuck out a little, so I tipped it a little more, and presto! Out came the CD!!!!


So if that ever happens, tip your MBP

Thanks for the suggestions though!

YOu guys are always wonderful, and helpful!

I take it none of the links I posted helped? I thought some of the suggestions may help.

Well it didnt help, because the CD never caught..... it was pretty much just "floating" in there

on one of the links I posted some guy suggested to take the mac tip it and tap it. i guess you missed it.

oh- then I did miss it... I'm sorry.

But thank you so much responding so fast with the tips.........
