Ejecting a Disc

To eject a disc, do one of the following:

Â Drag the disc icon to the Trash.

Â Press 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.

Playing DVD Discs

To play a DVD-Video disc on your PowerBook, insert the DVD disc. DVD Player opens

automatically. You’ll find DVD Player provides easy-to-use controls for starting,

stopping, and viewing DVDs.

If your PowerBook is connected to a TV so that you can watch a DVD-Video on the TV

screen, select 720 x 480 NTSC (in the United States) or 720 x 576 PAL (in Europe and

other regions) in the Displays pane of System Preferences.

You can easily connect your PowerBook to your stereo system. Use a miniplug-to-RCA

cable (not included) to connect the headphone (f) port on your PowerBook to the

audio input ports on your stereo.

Recording CD-R and CD-RW Discs

You can record data on CD-R and CD-RW discs.

To record data on a CD recordable disc:

1 Insert a blank disc into the optical drive.

2 In the dialog that appears, enter a name for the disc. An icon for the disc appears on

the desktop.

3 Drag files and folders to the disc icon.

4 Click the Burn Disc icon beside the disc name in the Finder Sidebar.

You can also record music on CD-R or CD-RW discs right from your iTunes library.
