Hi guys,
I got a problem with my macbook pro disc drive. I accidentally changed the Dvd Region Code five times and now I only can play American Dvd's anymore and no European ones. And I was told that the only way to correct this problem would be by replacing the disc drive. Does anyone know how much that averagely costs?
Thanks
MacBook Pro
First try playing DVDs with VLC
With some optical drives, it can play DVDs even if the drive is set to the wrong region.
You might also try a Yahoo/Google search as there may be a "hack" you might be able to use, otherwise an Apple Super Drive is around $75 (US) or you can get a 3rd party one for around $35 (US).
Just do a search for the best reviews and compatibilities of the drive you purchase.
Depending on what year/model you have there may be another issue of accessing it to remove/replace it.
By the way the MacBookPro forums are here.🙂
