The DVD works by just pushing it in far enough till you get resistance, then the drive pulls the DVD in by itself. If after it pulls the DVD in, it just ejects it, The DVD drive thinks you are using an incompatible disk.
You can also try resetting the SMC.
This is how to reset SMC on most modern Mac laptops:
Shutdown your MacBook Air / MacBook Pro
Connect the power adapter to your Mac
On the MacBook/Pro's keyboard, hold down the Shift+Control+Option keys and the Power button at the same time
Release all keys and the power button at the same time
Boot your Mac as usual
Here's the key sequence to hold down:
Reset the SMC of a MacBook Air or Retina MacBook Pro
Do keep in mind that by resetting the SMC you will lose power specific settings, like the time it takes to sleep a Mac and other customizations to power settings. No big deal, but if you have made many changes to your hardware behavior you will want to adjust stuff like sleep behavior again.
Reset SMC of an iMac, Mac Pro, Mac Mini
Resetting SMC is different for non-portable Macs:
Shut down your Mac
Disconnect the power cord
Press and hold the Mac's power button for 5 seconds
Release the button
Reattach the power cables and boot the Mac as usual

Ejecting a DVD on an external iMac drive
Might be a simple fix... have you tried holding down the mouse when you startup your computer? That is the "Eject Disc on Startup" function.
If so and it didn't work, let me know.
Is there a phone number I can call ?
you'll have to provide proof of ownership/purchase with apple. It requires a boot disk or knowledge of command line for a third-party individual.
I want it to log me into
What is wrong? Did you forget your password? Or the login name? or did you have a crash? Did you reinstall something? Or did a "funny" guy just change your password and forgot to tell you?
Don't panic, Apple should be able to help you if you have an apple account, and you have that password.
Macbook won't accept CD's/DVD's in Disk Drive
do you usually lean or put any pressure on the area above the slot-load optical drive? If you have anything flat and plastic around 1/4" (about 1/2 the width as a USB plug) stick it in the optical drive until you just feel it going past the door, and rotate 90 degrees so it opens it a little. See attached photos if you aren't sure what I am talking about
LAPTOP DONT POWER UP
Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a working outlet, that the prong section is connected with a clean contact to the brick, that the magsafe connector and port are both clean. Remove the battery. Now power on the laptop with the power button.If this does not work, attempt to reset the NVRAM (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379). If this is still not working, you can disassemble the machine and remove the upper part of the bottom case (lifting the keyboard section, and try to reseat the keyboard connection to the logic board. This cable is what allows the power button to turn on the machine. If this fails to fix it, then you have either a bad i/o board, or a bad system board, or a bad power cord.
Left side display not clear
If you're getting blocking, you might want to try SMC fan controller to get your machine cooled down. If you're just missing a section of the screen displaying, it might be a faulty LCD screen or a loose connection. Check that the ribbon is fitted correctly. After re-seating the cable, if it is still a problem, then the LCD is probably bad.

My apple laptop will not boot up all the way. it
Check ATI graphics chip heat sink, remove the soft pad that is over the chip and contacts the metal heatsink and replace with a penny prior to 1983 for good copper content. The penny will transmit heat more effectively than pad to the heatsink and will also put tension ontop of the chip to make better contact into its own solder and it will hopefully reseat itself. the problem seems to be that the chip heats up so much that it actually lifts itself out of its surface mount solder connections and becomes disconnected and that means no video. Look up "Mac ATI reflow"
