How do you open a CD-ROM when the computer is off?
Computers equipped with modern "slot" drives usually do not have the emergency eject mechanism using a paperclip stuck in a hole. On these machines turning the computer off then back on is supposed to force the drive to eject (if it is already off, just turn it on).
If you leave a CD in your drive and your computer is powered off how can you get the Cd out without turning the power back on?
Most CD / DVD drives have a small hole on the front panel. This is an "emergency eject button." Insert a needle or bent paperclip carefully into the hole. You should feel it push against something, and then see the tray eject slightly. Note that this can wear out the tray mechanism, so use sparingly.
What should you do if a disc gets stuck in the place where you put discs in on your computer?
If your CD/DVD drive tray won't open then you may be able to open it using a safety pin or paper clip, this will be done by poking the paperclip or other long thin object into the emergency eject hole - NOT the audio jack!!

How do you take out the CD playing in a 2004 Chevy Avalanche?
AnswerI assume you cannot get it to eject. Look for a tiny hole near the place you insert the CD. With a straight pin, push inside that hole to eject the CD. If you see no hole, I have no idea how to get it out, but maybe someone else can help.I have the same Problem. I have to use a CD and wrap tape sticky side out around the Cd. I press the eject button and insert the taped Cd and it grabs the other Cd and pull it out. Good luck..
