[QUOTE="jonnyd, post: 396470, member: 31029"] Fixing what? If OSX thinks the disk is in use, it won't open the drive regardless of what you try. It's also quite possible for OSX to think it has already ejected the disk, so there's nothing to eject. If you've never had the problem, you're lucky. It is common though, and on any other machine the answer is to push the button on the drive. In fact, the drives Macs use (at least all the ones I have had) all have the button - they're just standard IDE cd-rom / DVD-rom drives. But the button is considerd redundant and hidden under beautifully designed cases. [/QUOTE]
