I was cleaning up the other day and found the music CD that was in our goodie bag from the WCC2. So I throw it in the car and go for a drive, pop in the CD, listen to the tunes. the next day I'm out again and go to hit eject and nothing. So I hit it again and the power goes off. I power it back up and it goes to the radio but now it I hit the cd button it just stays on radio and the eject does nothing.
Anybody know how to get a stuck CD out of the player? mayby needle nose or tweezers? I didn't want to just start jaming more stuff in there... TIA, Mike D. |

Actually that is probably just what you should do!
Usually there is a little hole about the size of a paperclip (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) on the front somewhere. Take a look at the CD drive on the computer you are using. For sure there is one there. Push a paperclip in there and it will manually operate the eject mechanism. Don't worry you might have to push a little harder than you would expect. |

Does the player have a removeable faceplate?

If you take the faceplate off, you can access the CD with a long, thin pair of needlenose . BTDT. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

If your player has a removeable faceplate, see if there is a reset button in there somewhere, it will reset the computer in the player and tuner. I have an Alpine unit and it has this feature, not sure if yours will but worth a look.

Probably a dislocated label on the CD. Anybody know anybody that can print CDs on the cheap? (thinking of next year's WCC).
Also, I'm interested in the track selection from the Melba CD. |

My daughters new lap top has a DVD recorder with LightScribe technology. Burns a laser imprint right on the face so there is no paper label. Grey scale only but it still looks pretty cool.
