ejecting a cd

I'm unable to eject a cd from my Mac because the cd is not showing on the desktop, so I'm unable to drag it to the trash. Also, I do not see an ejection button. In the Finder sidebar, the CD is not listed.

Restart you Mac:

Once restarted, see if it then shows up, and if you can eject it.

On some Macs, holding down the trackpad while the laptop boots up will force the disc to eject.
