how do i open the optical drive , dvd player ,,so i can insert a disk and watch a movie..the f12 just brings up dashboard....does not open the drive....

Did you hold F12 Vs. tapping?

Are you using a recent Apple Keyboard?

 

[ronss]

one of the later keyboard,,,white platic ones....the f12 will not open it...i thought there might be another way

 

[Eidorian]

If it's a white keyboard then there should be an eject key on the upper right side.

the pro keyboards also have the eject button on the top right of the num pad

 

[ronss]

If the keyboard does have an eject key then F12 will only bring down Dashboard.
