Chapter 3 Using Your Computer 49
Inserting a CD or DVD Disc
To install or use programs from a CD or DVD disc:
1With the computer turned on, insert the disc (with the label facing up) into the drive
slot until you feel the drive catch the disc and take it the rest of the way in.
The disc may need to be inserted nearly all the way in before the drive takes it in the
rest of the way. This is normal.
Note: Some DVD discs are two-sided. To use the second side, you need to flip the
disk over.
2When the icon for the disc appears on the desktop, the disc is ready to use.
Ejecting a Disc
To eject a disc, do one of the following:
ÂDrag the disc icon to the Trash.
ÂPress and hold the Media Eject (C) key on the keyboard until the disc ejects.
Allow the disc to fully eject before removing or reinserting it.
If you can’t eject the disc, quit any applications that may be using the disc and try
again. If that doesn’t work, restart the computer while holding down the trackpad
button.
