> Slot loading drive stuck disc?
Bookmark topic
Well basically my Tibook wont let me take out my Tiger install CD, unlike a tray-drive I have no fail-safe to open up the tray and retrive the disc which I now need.
Anyone got any ideas?
Cheers

If I remember correctly, hold down the trackpad whilst switching the Mac on and, if the drive isn't broke, it should spit the disk out.
Failing that, you either send it off for repair, or use something like a credit card to lift the disk off the spindle, followed by a very thin pair of tweezers to grab it and fish it out. Slot drives are a nightmare...
Good luck!

^^^ That is correct, same applies to all Macs. Hold the mouse or trackpad button.
