verry urgent
I'd be damn careful about sticking anything in there and especially a knife.
There is more likely a chance you'll end up damaging the drive itself then
trying to snag the disc with a pair of tweazers. Really in the end it is best
to either see what Apple would charge to get the disc out or try ejecting the
disc with the slot-side facing toward a table and it may take some tilting back
and forth to see if the disc will slip out. Sounds like maybe a label or
something has gotten hung on the drive's mechanism.
Yeah, this is a problem for slot-load drives, but I've only had a few
occasions where this happen in my wife's iMac and I just found tilting it back
was sufficient to free the disc.

Try holding the power & eject buttons @ the same time & see if that does

hello
I have a cd that is jamed in my drive
when I eject it wants to spit it out it can't so it sucks it back in
it also can't get it to the point where I can get at the disk itself
I tried putting a tool in there from my computer case it has 2 middle
tongs to try to grab the disk but I can't get at it
felt the cd spinning but no go
I also don't have the funds to take it in to a mac store to have them
remove the disk
as soon as the disk drive sees it can't spit the disk it sucks it write
back in.
help guys other wise I won't have a mac.

please folks give me a hand
this is urgent urgent urgent urgent urgent
