Problem, Meet Solution

Other Problems

For a problem with software from a manufacturer other than Apple, contact the

manufacturer. Software manufacturers often provide software updates on their

website.

You can check for and install the latest Apple software using the Software Update pane

of System Preferences. Your iMac is set to check automatically once a week but you can

set it to check daily or monthly. You can also check for updates manually. For more

information, choose Help > Mac Help and search for “software update.”

Note: Classic (or Mac OS 9) applications are not compatible with your computer and

do not open.

If you have trouble inserting a disc
 Using a continuous motion, push the disc into the drive until your fingers touch the

side of your iMac.

 Use only a standard-size disc.

If you have trouble ejecting a disc
 Quit any applications that may be using the disc, and then press the Media

Eject (C) key on your keyboard.

 Open a Finder window and click the eject icon next to the disc icon in the

sidebar, or drag the disc icon from the desktop to the Trash.

 Log out from your user account by choosing Apple menu > Log Out “User”

(your account name appears in the menu), and then press the Media Eject (C) key

on your keyboard.

 Restart your iMac while holding down the mouse button.
