Q: Can't insert disk!
I'm trying to insert a disk and it's like I hit a block wall. I can can only insert it many 2". Thought maybe another disk was in the slot but nothing's showing on the screen and the eject button isn't ejecting anything. It's an iBook G4 running 10.5.8. Thanks.

My problem is solved but no by any of the suggestions found here. I googled my problem and that took me to ,I think, Mac Fix It. I didn't have a disk in there after all. It was sluggish drive. They suggested I put a credit card in the slot to get the springs loosened up. I did that several times and was able to insert the disk. My guess is that the drive wasn't used very much, which in turn, caused the problem.
I still don't have an answer about the external drive not showing up but it's not needed now. So I'm good to go. Thanks to everyone for your help.
