New MacBook Pro Keeps Ejecting CD/DVD's

[brendanlim]

Received my new Penryn-based Macbook Pro the other day, and when I loaded the install discs to install X-Code, I noticed that my Macbook would just spin for a couple seconds then spit it right out.

No matter what CD or DVD I try, it just spits it out. I've read there was an issue with an old firmware update that 'killed' SuperDrive's. The SuperDrive I have in my MBP is as follows.

MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-867:

Firmware Revision: HA13
Interconnect: ATAPI
Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)
Cache: 2048 KB
Reads DVD: Yes
CD-Write: -R, -RW
DVD-Write: -R, -R DL, -RW, +R, +R DL, +RW
Write Strategies: CD-TAO, CD-SAO, DVD-DAO
Media: Insert media and refresh to show available burn speeds

If I have no other option but to bring back to Apple, should I put back in my old RAM, which I upgraded myself after I got the machine?

I have the same problem with a 2.0 Macbook of the new line.

Macbook just keeps ejecting dvds/cds

Hi I wondered whether you resolved your issue. Yesterday my Macbook pro ejected a cd whilst burning from itunes. Since then it just spits out any discs out after about 15 secs - really infuriating.

I've picked up a few threads that say it may be linked to itunes8?, but I assume your problem started before 8 was available?

Can anyone help before I have to rob a bank ang go to the apple store

Hmm

I've been having the same problem, and now i think about it, may well be connected with itunes 8.

my computer will play DVDs, and OS x install discs, it will burn music discs but when I put it back in, it just spits it back out after making noises. Burn dvds work also. the only thing that it wont do is play music CDs. I dont know wtf is going on, I am no computer wiz so I dont want to get into something and mess even more stuff up. Please help
