Almost always, your described problem could be caused by:

• stuck disc;
• fault in the load/eject mechanism.

It it were a stuck disc, the correct fix would be to open the unit and manually extract the erring disc. However, there may be possible workarounds:

• unplug the unit for an hour or so;
• press and hold the eject button while plugging in; or
• unplug the unit for an hour or so;
• invert the unit (bottom side up);
• plug back the Apex and quickly unplug soon as you hear the mechanical noise start;
• revert to normal position and try ejecting; or
• while still in the inverted position, press and hold the eject button while plugging in but must unplug quickly even before the tray starts to move out.

Take the top off. See if you can get the disc out,sometimes that easy and sometimes not. The tray's usually is a rack and gear drive. Sometimes the rack and gear get out of sync. Try turning the gears gently to see if you can get it lined back up. Also you can sometimes unplug the dvd for about 30 to 45 sec. and plug back in and that reset the processor. You might want to try that first. Hope this is helpful.
