Eject disk

Hello,

No need to post twice and be impatient!!!

Ejecting a disc when everything has failed?? If you have tried all the usual methods of ejecting a CD or DVD from your computer's optical drive without success, there are a few manual methods. ??First, quit all applications that are using files on the disc. Then try one of these alternative methods: ???Choose the Apple menu > Restart and hold down the button or trackpad until the disc ejects. ??If your drive has an emergency eject hole, put the computer to sleep and insert a straightened paperclip into this small hole (its location varies by drive). Press firmly until the disc ejects. ??Use Open Firmware to eject the disc if all other methods fail (this may not work on all computers). To use this method, you need to boot and briefly use the computer using Open Firmware, not the standard Mac OS X desktop. ??To eject a disc via Open Firmware: ?Restart the computer. ?When you hear the startup sound, press and hold the Command + Option + O + F keys. (There is an Apple on the Command key.) ?Release the keys when you see a white screen that says "Welcome to Open Firmware". ?At the prompt, type: ?eject cd ??Press the Return key, then wait a few seconds. The disc drive should eject the disc, and "OK" will appear on the screen when the action is complete. ?Type: ?mac-boot ??Press the Return key. ??Your computer will start normally, and you will return to your Mac OS X desktop.

So you need to turn off the computer, then restart it and immediately press the keys "option + command + O (as in Olivier) + F "
You will enter Open Firmware, and there you type "eject cd" and then press return.

At this point, the CD should come out. You enter "exit" and return, and normally you will be back on your desktop.
There is a method via the Terminal which involves typing the following command:
drutil tray eject
and validating this command by pressing the "Return" key

Another solution/ Restart by holding down the F12 key.

Or, by opening Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities) and selecting the CD/DVD and clicking on "eject" from the menu bar.

If all this does not work and the drive is one of those "disk-eating" types (iMac), you'll need to resort to drastic measures. Take a rigid support (a wooden popsicle stick is the best) and insert it into the slot of your iMac in such a way that the disc cannot spin, and turn on your iMac...
You should feel resistance (the disc wants to spin) and at some point, nothing more; that will be the moment to remove the stick, as the CD will be ejected (kind of an automatic protection of the drive to avoid damage).
