If you're on a Mac hit the top right button. Looks like a triangle.

Have you tried pressing the button that looks like this

Maybe it is an empty CD/DVD?

Does it look burned to you?

A Burned Disc

You can see the "burned" part of this CD-R disc by noticing the slight change in reflectivity on the recording side. In this example, the arrow points to the end of the small recorded area, which is less than 6% of the 700MB capacity of the disc.​

It's possible that it's not showing on the Desktop or in the Finder sidebar because that option is unchecked.

• To have CD/DVDs show on the Desktop, go to your Desktop, select Preferences... from the Finder menu, under the General tab select (put a check mark next to) items you want to appear on the Desktop. Close Preferences.
  
  
• To have CD/DVDs show in the Finder's Sidebar, go to your Desktop, select Preferences... from the Finder menu, under the Sidebar tab select (put a check mark next to) items you want to appear on in the Finder's Sidebar. Close Preferences.
