Solution For Ejecting Mini CD Stuck in MacBook Drive
It was very stupid of me for not thinking before doing this. I put a Blackberry Curve Mini CD in my MacBook drive. And it got stuck there. It was neither getting detected nor coming out.
For a naive macbook user who is not aware that mini CDs are not compatible with the Mac CD Drive mechanism, this mistake is bound to happen.
I read about force ejecting on the net i.e. Open terminal and type:
drutil tray eject but that didn't work for me.
So, I just what we did is, put a business card inside the slot and pull up the cd and drag it out.
It took 5-6 tries with different angles and then it worked! 😁
I hope you never get stuck this way, but if you do; this might help. 😎
