Q: USB Superdrive connected to Macbook will not read DVD that is inserted.

Apple USB Superdrive connected to the New Macbook will not read DVD that is inserted.

 

  • The device intially did not show up in Finder
  • Msg came on Macbook screen after device seemed to be trying to read it, telling me to remove USB device as it was taking up too much power.
  • Disconnected the USB Superdrive.
  • After reconnecting, device shows up in Finder, but says cannot open because original item cannot be found.
  • Cannot eject DVD from that is in USB Superdrive

 

How can I eject the DVD that is in the USB Superdrive?

MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)
