My Macbook won't accept DVDs/CDs

Before I would be able to put a DVD in and the Mac would accept it, but it would just spit it back out without reading it. Now when I put a DVD in the Mac won't accept it at all. The DVD will go in but not all the way. I've tried the utilities but it didn't work. Any suggestions??

I think your mac's CD/DVD writer is damaged that is why it's not working. get to your nearest customer care. Only they can help you out.

Kim,  I'm glad you asked this.  I have had problems with my superdrive as well.  What I found out through persistent research is this:     The new Superdrives can take CD+R and DVD+R.  (I am assuming you are asking about recording?   However, the older models of Superdrives ---usually found in Powerbook G4s, can take CD-R and DVD-R.  These are different from the first ones ini that they are slower to burn, and just a few gb short of space than the +.  this should help solve the problem with taking new cds and dvds for burning.  The superdrive tends to just spit these right back out.  If you are referring to playing them, then have you tried cleaning the dirty ones?  Check the help section at www.apple.com.  they have wonderful solutions.  Try to put in a couple new cds or dvds to play.  Open up itunes or the dvd player before you put the disks in.  If you're still having trouble, make use of that warranty and go to your nearest apple store to fix it right up! Hope this helps!

SOURCE: Macbook DVD drive

I wonder if the DVD is a faster disc than the Mac can handle. I know that when I use a 40x CD disc on a G5 optical drive, it's no go. But if I use a 4x disc, it's a happy camper. I bought an external drive to handle the faster discs.

MacBook pro 08 idvd will not burn to blank -R dvd

Go click on the apple logo at the top left of the screen. Then click on About this mac. Then click on More info. Then click on Disc Burning.

It will tell you what DVDs the optical drive will burn. If no info shows up, then you got a bad connection or need to clean the optical drive laser lens or your optical drive is about dead so you may have to buy a new optical drive.

My dvd rom on my mac g4 powerbook won't read my disks, I insert it then it spits it back out.

Try different DVDs and then try different CDs. If it spits out all of them, then its time for a new optical drive.

CD/DVD optical drive malfunctioning. Invariable performance with reading and ripping CDs. Cannot read DVDs.

upgrade your CD/DVD firmware from MAC website and install it.
if it does same even upgrading driver then most could be problem in optical lens so better taking back in the same place where you bought it from if its still under warranty.

or if its out of warranty then you need to take to Tech so they can fix it for you.

please post back if anything changes and rate all answers.

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 about7804560.jpg
