[QUOTE="Don K, post: 1898770, member: 409998"] Solution to missing CDs & DVDs icon: I realize that this is an old question. But some of us have older Macs. In my case a 2013 - 27 inch iMac which I'm not about to trade up for, because this baby works great! This model computer DOES NOT have a side disc slot. So when I open System Preferences, there is no "CDs & DVDs" icon. But when I connect my external Apple brand super drive, the "CDs & DVDs" icon DOES APPEAR. I believe this only works with an Apple brand super drive, not other 3rd party drives. Hope this solution helps some folks out. [/QUOTE]
