To eject a CD you can press the Eject button (top right corner of the keyboard), or right click on the CDs icon and select Eject from the menu, or drag the CDs icon into the Trash icon on the dock, or open a Finder window and click on the eject symbol next to the CDs listed in the left hand pane, or open iTunes and click on the eject symbol next to the CDs name.
If the eject button isn't working, you can try ejecting the disk through your computer's operating system. On Windows, open "This PC," right-click on the drive, and select "Eject." On a Mac, you can drag the disk icon to the Trash or right-click and choose "Eject." If that doesn’t work, you can use a paperclip to manually eject the disk by inserting it into the small hole near the drive's tray.
This is most likely because there is already a disk stuck in the drive. If hitting the eject key doesn't work, go into disk utility and eject the disk from there, or in Terminal type "drutil tray eject" and hit return. There are many ways to try here (http://guides.macrumors.com/Force_Eject_a_Stuck_CD_or_DVD) but if none of them work on ejecting a stuck disk, bring it in to the local Apple Store.
The eject button on the keyboard above the Delete key, that is if you're using an Apple or Apple compatible keyboard. You can also eject a disk by pressing the [command ⌘] or [Apple ] key, located next to the space bar and simultaneously pressing the E key. You can also eject a disk by selecting File-> Eject from within in the Finder. Clicking anywhere on the empty desktop will activate the Finder and you can then select Eject (File->Eject) from the File menu that is located on the top left of your screen next to the Apple  icon.
Drag the CD icon to the trash, this will eject the CD, On a non-Apple Keyboard, you can hold down the F12 key (if i remember correctly) or you can simply drag the disk from your desktop to the trash can. You could also use the Disk Utility (Applications\Utilities\). Simply select the disk from the side bar and click on eject at the top.
When dragging the icon for a disc to the Trash icon in the Dock the Trash icon changes to an Eject icon. Placing the disc icon over the eject icon will eject the disc.
If the downloaded item is showing as a mounted disk right click on its icon and select Eject "The Disk's Name" from the menu. Downloaded items can be dragged to the Trash icon in the Dock and when the Trash is emptied the download will be removed from the computer.
The drive is probably being used by something and won't release it to eject the disk. Close all the applications and try again. If you only have the Finder open, then it might be trying to read a file or is busy with the disk, for example indexing it in order to find files easier. You might have to log out or relaunch the Finder. Try to eject after each step. If it still won't eject, restart and hold the mouse button down and eject button down during the startup. It should eject automatically. As a next resort, restart your computer in 'Safe' mode by restarting...wait for the startup sound...quickly hold down the SHIFT key and hold down the mouse button. After the startup finishes, if the disk did not eject automatically, try to eject the disk normally. If nothing works, shut down the Mac. Try to eject manually... With the Mac turned off... There should be a small hole somewhere by the drawer - probably next to the button. Straighten out a paper clip and push it into the hole to release the drawer. Don't force it. If the disk has jammed in the drive, you can ruin the drive by forcing it open. If it won't eject with a gentle but steady push, you will have to take out the drive and carefully open it up and get the disk out. If you are not capable of that, then take it in to the service center. There is a free application that adds an eject button to the top menu of OSX. It may open the drive drawer for you.
