Just realised it was a MacBook Pro, in which case you want to be
doubly sure you don't scrath the metal! Also, Apple are investigating
a lot of DVD drive failures in older MacBook Pros, you might want to
report it to them just in case they start a repair program.

Sam,
Restart/track pad didn't work and it's not a non-standard disc or
one with a label. Looking closely at the laptop, I think it might
have been trodden on by a six year old (there's a lesson there about
not leaving a laptop on the floor). There's a definite bow to the
case in the area of the CD drive and I think that's jamming the
eject. Hmmmmm.
How easy/difficult is it to disassemble so I can get the CD out and
then tweak the case straight?

Hi Phil
Restart holding down the trackpad button, if that doesn't pop it
out then there's a problem either with the drive or the disc. Is
the disc non-standard? Does it have a label stuck on it?
Regards
Sam

Morning all,
My MacBook Pro has a CD stuck in its drive. It makes the usual
whirring noise when I try and eject, then makes a more painful
sounding whirring noise, and then mounts the CD again. A restart
didn't help. Any ideas (what was wrong with the old paper-clip
eject hole eh?).
