Unfortunately, this type of treatment seems “standard” from Apple in this instance. I can give you other examples of fantastic customer service from Apple, but anything involving these Matshita drives is a tale of woe.

I’m glad to hear that this fix worked for you! You’ve very welcome. We’re all in this together.

May MacBook Pro 2.33 (Late 2007) for the last 8 months or so has become more and more fussy with recognizing Blank CD’s and DVD’s to the point wrer it spits out every 99 CDs out of 100.. I can’t tell you the date that it started getting fussy but I knew that it once was not fussy and the next it was.

I took it to a Mac Shop and they replaced the hard drive but as soon as I got home the problem was there! After visiting the Mac shop and trying to convince them time and time again that something was wrong they sent me away as if I was crazy!

After coming across this site and following the instructions above (I’m no Genius) my superdrive (MATSHITADVD-R UJ-857D) now recognize any CD or DVD I put into it! Thanks so so so so much for your help!

Thank you!

I love you.
I love Dover Plains for Obama

Register for Change was awesome, I’m so glad we got it to run so smoothly and we got so much support.

Sadly it was also able to showcase what obvious racism still lies in this town. It shows that we still have a lot of work to do in his country. But, gladly, our group can say that we are doing our part.

Btw, Jeremiah Wright? BOOK? GRRR

Hilliary as VP: I’d be happy; I wouldn’t be ecstatic but it’d be pleased. I want Grovel, Dodd, Webb, but Clinton will do. Of Course, I wanted Edwards, but that’s out of the deck of cards now isn’t it! Haha

Clinton can secure Penn and help with Iowa, Ohio, Indiana, Florida even Virginia too. Also she can help with those pesky working class white voters.

But then again, as I would prefer, Dodd, Grovel, Webb could do that as well and could add the experience level; plus, they’re white guys which will make white people feel nice and safe and cozy again.

Furhermore, Webb, whom I love, is a crossover to the Democrats- he was Sec. of Navy under Reagan. I think Webb could definitely help balance the ticket in race, age, “patriotism” (he’s ex-Marines [Vietnam War Vet] and was Sec. of Navy under Reagan). But, he can’t give Obama the balance in experience. Plus, I don’t if it is likely that Webb would see eye to eye with Obama. Webb’s son served in Iraq and was nearly killed. Also, Webb has been against Bush since the beginning of his campaign and through his term. He even refused to shake Bush’s hand when he was elected to the Senate.

On the Colbert Report, Webb said he didn’t want to be the Vice-Presidential nominee, but that was July 21st, 2008.

Also, You should read the Obama-Race articles in the current issue of New York Magazine. They’re really good.

I’m glad my site was somewhat helpful with your MacBook’s Matshita problem, but regret that you were unable to solve it. Apple’s handling of that fiasco is disgraceful. The k2 theme is fantastic, and you’ve done some great work with it.

I really appreciate the nice feedback, that you enjoy reading my posts. Have a great day!

@Jimi: I’d never trust another Matshita drive, ever. I hate this situation and I wish you luck as well.
