Eject a stuck CD/DVD from a MacBook Pro SuperDrive
I just had a customer with the same issue - couldn't even get to the bootpicker with the disc in the drive. The 10 minute wait paid off and the machine did boot and ejected the disc. Fortunately, he had called AppleCare previously and gotten a case number for the issue; they were unable to help and so recommended he take it to an Apple Specialist. Because of this I was able to get a CS code to cover the labor after referring Apple to this article!
Since there's obviously some fairly consistent issue here, hopefully it'll make it to the engineers. In this case the stuck disc was an obvious mis-burn; it's almost as if when EFI gets ahold of a disc with a damaged or unkown format, it scours the disc for any info it can find before proceeding with the boot sequence. Very annoying.

"Read other people's messages before posting your own to avoid simply duplicating what has already been said." So I have, and it is obvious that lots of folks are suffering from the same glitch, not just on MacBooks, but here on a G4 Powerbook w OSX; I report this in hopes that Apple picks up on it, as AppleCare Mike has suggested. |
