Hi All,

Please do help me with the problem I got on my Macbook Pro.

I tried installing Windows OS on my mac using Boot camp assistant, while installing I noticed that I lost the installation key so couldn’t progress. On cancelling the installation, my mac doesn’t give me option to boot back to mac. Also, on trying to boot using the SHIFT key doesn’t work, the CD inside tries to isntall the windows which I lost the key.

Please suggest me how can I remove the Windows CD out of my mac.

Thanks.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I panicked so much last night I tried to unscrew everything on my Macbook Pro to see if I can remove it!
After trying all other tips and no hope, double-sided tape on a credit card worked first time! FAN-frikin-TASTIC!

This also worked for me. Thanks! Saved me $100 plus labor to get a new drive installed. 9 inches of clear tape, a Costco card and several business cards later I have two kid’s DVDs extracted from a white macbook.
