Hi, I have an iMac and the disk won't eject. It tries to, but then goes back in without coming out at all, if that makes any sense. The drive still reads the disk though. Can anyone help?
Ok, I assume you have hit the eject button on the keyboard. Try dragging the CD icon on the desktop to the trash can. If that doesn't work, Shut down the computer and start up while holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared. Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism. Another option is to open Disk Utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button. Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder. Another option is to Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray. Lastly if your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button. One of these should work.
you most certainly have a damaged dvd drive... you should change it. http://www.pc-mob.com/images/dvdrw.jpg
the cost here in greece is 40 - 50 euros for a laptop dvd-rw depending of the connection (sata or ide).
take the laptop with you when you go to a hardware shop and they will change it for you right away with no extra cost.

When I click on the ''new'' icon to compose an email, or when I go to reply to an email, it does not let me. It continually says ''loading'' longer than I have been able to wait (several minutes).
If anyone knows what I can do to be able to send an email again, I would really appreciate the help.
Thank you!
