[QUOTE="michaellamere, post: 888748, member: 47059"] I have a Macbook Pro 2.2Ghz Core 2 Duo and for some reason my DVD drive suddenly won't read DVD's. One thing I noticed from all of my other macs when I go into the system profiler I see this. MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-857E: Firmware Revision: ZA0E Interconnect: ATAPI Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipped/Supported) Cache: 2048 KB Reads DVD: Yes CD-Write: -R, -RW DVD-Write: -R, -R DL, -RW, +R, +RW, +R DL Burn Underrun Protection CD: Yes Burn Underrun Protection DVD: Yes Write Strategies: CD-TAO, CD-SAO, DVD-DAO Media: [COLOR="DarkRed"]No[/COLOR] Now on all of my other 3 Macs I get basically the same stuff, except for the different drives and stuff, but at the bottom where is says Media, on all my other Macs, I get this message instead. Media: [COLOR="DarkRed"]Insert media and refresh to show available burn speeds [/COLOR] Why does my Macbook Pro say no? Is there something wrong with my settings? Is there something wrong with the DVD drive and the Macbook knows it? I am really stumped here. If anyone has an idea at all, please let me know. Michael [/QUOTE]
