DVD RW won't eject
I have an iMac, and I put a rewritable dvd in to see what was on it, and I can't get it to eject, no matter how many methods or attempts. Any ideas?
I tried ejecting thru finder, by dragging icon to the trash, by right-clicking and choosing eject, by pushing the eject button on the K/B, and I've restarted the computer. Help!!!

Nevermind, I restarted the iMac in Windows and ejected it that way.

Man I am glad it worked out for you, I faced the same thing before but the CD didn't want to eject neither in Windows nor Macintosh OS X. There was a little trick that I didn't know about but as they always say "Google is your friend".
I had to get a sharp tool and force push that little black thing (which I thought was the infrared port but ehhh)  But I also had to cut those "flaps" or whatever they are called  Long journey. lol
