126 Appendix D Top Ten Questions
I put a disc in my optical drive, but nothing happened. How do I know if the disc is
compatible with my optical drive?
Press the Media Eject (C) key to eject the disc. Apple slot-loading optical drives support
only round 12 cm discs. Nonstandard discs and discs with noncircular shapes do not
work in the optical drive. For more information about nonstandard discs, go to the
Apple Service & Support website at www.apple.com/support and search for
“nonstandard discs.”
How do I connect an external display, TV, or projector with a DVI connection to my
MacBook Pro?
1 Turn on the external display or projector.
2 Make sure the display cable is connected to the external projector or display.
3 Connect the display cable to your MacBook Pro. Your MacBook Pro automatically
detects the external display.
4 Adjust the resolution on the external display by using the Displays pane of System
Preferences or the Displays status menu in the menu bar.
Note: Use the Apple DVI to Video Adapter, available separately, to display content on
your TV.
Warning: Inserting a nonstandard disc into the optical drive can damage the drive.
