Had a power surge that caused the CD player to not go to any discs. I was playing single disc at the time & message say remove disc one, but that doesn't solve the problem....suggestions?
If you have had a power surge in the computer you could have serious motherboard problems. The problems that follow from a power surge are usually intemittent problems. Small things at first then major stuff starts to happen. Other componentes such as modems and graphic cards start to go funny as well. Buy a surge protector or a small UPS. This won't solve your problem now but for future reference. Take the computer to a repair store and ask them to sheck out the PC.

Mine did the same thing. My player was primarily used in the garage and the cold weather may have caused my player to do the same thing. I just fixed my player. I removed the top cover and looked at the CD in the play position. In the upper right corner from the CD, you will see a spindle motor with a belt on it. Gently spin the motor back and forth carefully with your finger. I rotated it a half-spin in either direction, careful not to dislodge the belt. When I turned the player back on, the mechanism operated as it normally would and began playing the disc. I was able to eject and reinsert the magazine without any issues, solving the problem. Hopefully that will work for you.
I looked at the users manual. I'm assuming single play slot zero is empty, if not unload it. Do you have your manual, if not, google your model number and select the search result 'manualslib.com', it can be found there. Recheck how your discs are programmed to play, sequential, block, etc. What you're seeing could be normal for how the unit is programmed. The disc was seen as being played, even when powered down, so the unit automatically selects the next disc. Some players attempt to read every slot , empty or not. Again, this may be programming. If a disc was loaded into the laser play position, was another disc placed in that tray position? Your unit has a wide range of programming/ listening functions, over time is could accidentally be programmed to other than what you are used to. Last resort is profession service. Good luck.
Hello If a disc has been put in the slot of the disc in play, Remove the disc, whose number is displayed, and press stop button. Because of light or noise, the changer has detected a disc in the lot of the disc being played, even though it is empty. Check whether there is a disc in the displayed slot. With front panel closed, hold down "STOP " button for atl least four seconds or more.

The
Wave® music system is designed to play commercial CDs, CD-Rs,
MP3-encoded CDS and CD-RWs. If your system has trouble playing MP3 CDs,
make sure the discs were recorded with compatible formats. See Cannot play MP3 CDs
The system may not be able to play certain CD-RW discs. Playability
is dependant on how the disc was recorded, including the format it was
recorded in and the actual disc used for recording. Note: iTunes
defaults to AAC as the encoding format. In order to use iTunes to make
CDs that will play on the Wave® music system, you’ll need to change the
format to MP3 How to Choose Import Options
Different brands of CD-Rs and CD-RWs use different materials which
may affect the ability of a player to read them. If you are burning
your own CD-Rs or CD-RWs, experiment with different brands of discs
If a commercial disc won’t play, check for scratches, fingerprints
or other physical damage. Try the CD in another player. If it still
won’t play, there may be a problem with the disc

you should be cautious of what you do. every time you put a cd/dvd make sure your disc is clean, no scratches, no damage, no dirt, and no STICKERS sticking at the disc.
well if the problem just occurred inside your cd/dvd player, all you can do is to clean the optical eye with cloth and water and rub it at the eye(don't put to much water, just soak the cloth a little bit and don't put too much pressure against the optical eye)
if does it again adjusting the sensitivity of the optical eye would help, if still, you have to order a new optical eye though or buy a new cd/dvd player.
just be carefull of what you put inside your thing.ok?
