Apple Power Macintosh 4400 - Manual (Page 66)

Ejecting a CD-ROM disc
Follow these instructions to open the CD-ROM drive tray and eject a
CD-ROM disc from your computer.
IMPORTANT You may not be able to eject a disc if it is shared (available to
other computers). To turn off file sharing, use the Sharing Setup control panel
in the Control Panels folder, which is available in the Apple (
K) menu.
1 Open the tray.
There are several ways to open the tray of your CD-ROM drive.
If a CD-ROM disc icon appears on your screen, use one of these methods:
m Select the disc icon on your screen and drag the icon to the Trash. (You won’t
lose information on the CD-ROM disc by dragging its icon to the Trash.)
m Click the disc icon and choose the Put Away command in the File menu.
IMPORTANT Don’t click the disc icon and choose Eject Disk from the
Special menu. If you do this, the computer still holds the CD-ROM disc in
its memory and keeps asking you to reinsert it.
m If the AppleCD Audio Player window is active, choose Eject CD from the
File menu, or simultaneously press the x and E keys. (AppleCD Audio
Player, a program that allows you to play audio CDs and to control your
CD-ROM player, is available in the Apple [K] menu.)
If no CD-ROM disc icon appears on your screen, do this:
m Press the Open/Close button for your CD-ROM drive.
2 Take the CD-ROM disc out of the tray.
Store your disc in a safe place, away from heat, dust, and moisture.
3 Push the tray in, or press the Open/Close button, to close the tray.
To avoid possible damage to the tray and the CD-ROM drive, keep the tray
closed when you are not using it.
