Does anyone know how to get a 'stuck' DVD out of a Macbook? The Mac will not eject the DVD and is not reading the DVD, it is not showing on the Desktop or in Applications. On a PC laptop you can just poke a paper clip in the little hole on the disc drive and it will open, is there something similar on a Macbook??

thanks Chris.

Try holding down the mouse (one click and hold), during start-up. This should eject and unmount any attached volumes.
