The only other thing I can think for you to try after Kappy's advice would be to hold the MacBook upside down while pressing the eject button.....it might help postion the offending CD to be ejected........
Response to mikokatsun post about shaking it.
This worked for us. A PC requires paper clip, Mac requires a good shake.
Option 1 worked right away! Thanks for the help!
"/usr/bin/drutil tray eject" worked for me, where other options failed. (including "/usr/bin/drutil eject")
Yes!! Holding the machine sideways with the disc slot facing down and shaking the **** out of it while clicking eject worked great for a workaround. Now to see about a permanent fix.
This works for me. Thanks!
Result! Thank you....
No. 5 did it!
Thanks
This is the best solution of all!
Option 1 helped me. Now trying to find an option that will work for a lost password
It worked! ✅
