CD not ejecting

Post by TehillahMusic »

Hi Dave,

Started importing my library today with kJams Pro 1.0d50r6. After importing maybe 8 CDGs... I noticed that I could no longer eject the CDGs from the drive.

I also noticed that second mounted drive shows up labeled "Untitled" in Finder. I cannot eject either from Finder or Disk Utility when this occurs. I have to force a reboot, and hold "click" down the touchpad during restart to force the CD to eject. The files that are ripped, work fine. However forcing a hard reboot after each CDG rip is an issue.
[...]
It's like something is using the mounted CD, and not releasing it.

It's not tied to ripping, I tried just inserting the CDG, and if the "Untitled" shows up mounted, I can't eject the CDG.

Any suggestions?

This is an issue with Mac OS X, and has nothing to do with kJams. Please file a bug with Apple. I have done so many times, it seems they do not care. There is nothing that I can do.

you *MAY* be able to work around the problem with a Sharpie magic marker, YMMV:

ps: do not post more than one issue per thread. if you have more than one issue, please make multiple threads. I imagine your 2nd issue was due to your 1st.

Dave, from my POV I was trying to give you a complete view of what is going on.

I see, yes i understand, thanks for that. Because I've seen it before not related to this, my first thought was that it stands as it's own bug :)
