Apple Power Macintosh 4400 - Manual (Page 108)

Problems using CD-ROM discs
You insert a CD-ROM disc, but its icon doesn’t appear on the Macintosh desktop.
m Make sure that the disc label is facing up and the disc is centered in the
tray. If you’re using a small (8 cm) disc, make sure it is within the tray’s
inner ring.
m Make sure the tray is closed all the way.
m Try restarting your computer.
m The disc may use a format that the Macintosh cannot recognize.
m While holding the C key down, try starting your computer from the
CD-ROM disc that contains system software. If only the hard disk icon
appears on the desktop, then there may be a hardware problem with your
CD-ROM drive. If the CD-ROM icon appears above the hard disk icon, try
reinstalling your CD-ROM software following the instructions in
“Installing or Reinstalling CD-ROM Software” later in this chapter.
CD-ROM software is already installed on Macintosh computers that come
with CD-ROM drives. You can reinstall it by following the procedure in
“Installing or Reinstalling CD-ROM Software” later in this chapter.
Your computer displays the message “This is not a Macintosh disk: Do you want to
initialize it?” when you insert a CD-ROM disc in the CD-ROM drive.
m Make sure that the Foreign File Access and Audio CD Access CD-ROM
extensions are installed in your Extensions Folder and are turned on. (If
they are not turned on, use the Extensions Manager control panel to turn
them on and then restart your computer.)
m Make sure the CD-ROM software is installed. (The CD-ROM software
is already installed on Macintosh computers that come with
CD-ROM drives.)
m The disc may use a format that the Macintosh cannot recognize.
