| Dont think it needs a cleaning
I was originally attempting to rip a dvd from disk utility and then burn it. It rips the dvd, i think, ok; into .cdr. I click "burn", tells me it is waiting for me to insert a blank dvd. I insert a dvd-r, blank, and the drive trys to take it for a minute or so and then just spits it back.
Thinking it was a burner issue, I went into i-tunes to try to burn some random songs onto a cd-r. PIcked about 18 songs at 520MB. Put in a 700MB cd-r. I-tunes said there was not enough space on the disc inserted, I would need multiple discs. I clicked ok anyway and it burned almost all the songs to the disc. So the burner is working, to some extent.
I am going to go back and get different dvd-r discs. But I still dont see why that would be the issue. This is a superdrive, should have no issues. Also, before, was working no problem, so easy.
Thanks for your help.
