Hello,
Always something, I guess:
When I bought my iMac a few months ago, I also bought
their DVD reader, called a Superdrive.
Used it once or twice, a few months ago, and then it has just bee
sitting on my desk.
Can't get it to show up anywhere on any screens, or to work.
Have it plugged directly into a USB Port on back of iMac, so a USB cable isn't in play.
I did get a disc into it, but I don't think it grabbed it.
I think it is just in it due to my pushing it in.
Previously, I think, if you put your hand on the case, you
could discern a very light vibration. Not now.
In the Finder, "Remote Disc" nothing shows.
Does not show on the desktop or Dock either.
Tried the Apple DVD Player program that came with Mac.
It also won't do anything.
Any thoughts on how to get the Mac to actually
recognize the SuperDrive, and/or what to try would be appreciated.
Sure is hard to believe it is a bum unit after only
one or two usages, which went fine.
Thanks,
Bob
