I ejected a disk from my iMac (fall 2010) this evening, and now I can't put it back in. Discs just sit in the slot - it has stopped pulling them in.
Any advice would be appreciated.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
I had the same problem, and I have either just fixed it or the magic superdrive fairies helped me out...
I reset the SMC, then I entered terminal and typed the drutil eject command... didn't seem to help, then I put a dvd in as far as it would go (about 1/2 way) and then did drutil eject and out it popped. Now accepting Disks fine.
Maybe that will help. Had been driving me nuts for weeks...
This worked for me too! I tried the reset, pressing eject, credit card, and the drutil eject method alone. Took 4 tries but finally got it to work 🙂
My 2009 MBP will not take discs. Push the disc in and nothing happens. If I look under my mac it says the drive is powered down? Any thoughts?
HI! In my case, de disc hits something solid... It doesn't go further. Do you know what shoul I do?
Thanks!
Hi my superdrive keeps spitting out any disk i insert almost instantly I've only used it once before now in the begging of the year I'm not sure what the problem is
Thanks for your posting. After following all the previous answers (reset NVRAM, SMC, etc), your solution worked for me.
Reading your comment made me realize to insert it as far as I could and try it that way. It worked for me and saved me quite the headache!! Thanks yo!
superdrive won't draw discs in
