Cd wont eject from cd slot - Dell Studio 15 Notebook

There is a manual eject slot on the side of the CD changer. You will need a small flat head screwdriver or a pry tool to insert into the slot.

Take a Paper Clip (Gem Clip) and straighten it out. Look on the side of the CD Drawer and you will see a tiny hole. Insert the Paper Clip into the hole to force the drawer open. That's why the hole is there.

Try to maunal eject is from "My Computer". Right click on the drive and click eject. If that doesn't work, then you need to replace the drive.

i had this problem and i just used a normal kitchen knife to lever the cd up or down to get it facing the slot and then eject, it just seems to stick on the fascia, if it wont take a cd in there is probably already a cd stuck in it.

Here is my trick. Get a credit card and insert it in the cd slot, work it arround, not too hard or any thing, just enough to trigger the release mechanisim. the cd should eject. not a fool proof method but has worked a couple of times for me.

This works for sure...

Things you'll need:
1. Old plastic card (an old credit card should do just fine I used a grocery discount card)
2. Timing

Start:
1. Hold the small side of the card like you're going to put it in a bank machine slot (not the sliding type)

2. Push the eject button

3. Immediately insert the card on the left side of the CD slot.. you may have to insert it rather far as it seems there's a switch in there. By my estimation, it feels like the card is ABOVE the disc.... try sliding in/out/left/right (sounds vulgar I know...but this works every time)

There is a point whereby if you don't get the CD to eject, it will display an error... watch your timing and how you move the card and try again....I swear this works.

Hi,
From the tape library console, on the menu, select the slot view option, find out the slot of the tape you want to eject. Then move the tape in that slot to the male slot using the 'media move' option menu. The tape will be now ejected to the male slot.
Please come back and post your ratings if this solution helps you in anyway. Thnx

hold the eject button on your keyboard (upper right corner), while shutting down your mac.

If that doesnt work, hold the mouse button down while shutting down your mac.

IF THE CD WONT EJECT THAN THE CD SLOT IS LOCKED AND THERES NO WAY TO FIX IT, YOU JUST NEED TO BUY A NEW ONE

you might try and look inside the CD slot with a flashlight and if you can see a CD try to remove it with tweezers,you do have power to the player right? if no power it wont eject,
