TICKET ARCHIVE -> Superdrive Continually Ejects Disk

jediofthethirdage - May 28, 2005 - 10:00 am

I have a 17" pwr bk titanium w/mashushita superdrive. however, it will eject all cds & dvds. I am wondering if the drive is bad, or possible my kid put something INTO the drive that will make it not accept any disk. If so, I would like to know how I can go about and find a tutorial on how to open up the drive to see if something got lodged into the drive. Thanks for you help. I will patiently await your answer (especially on where I can go to find tutorial to fix it).

I haven;t delt with that particular model of Powerbook myself, but this place might be able to help you:

If the drive has been damaged they can sell you a replacement that you can install yourself.

Of course have you tried choosing restart from the Apple menu, and holding down the trackpad button? This will eject anything that is ejectable. Of course that may not be true in your case.
