jcm4 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 My Dell XPS M1530's optical drive refuses to function with my iDeneb installation. When I insert a CD, it spins and whirs, but never actually registers in iTunes or the Finder. Help? It doesn't show up in the system profiler either. It does show up in Windows, and works, however.

cruckajuck Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I'm having this issue as well, also with iDeneb. The DVD drive doesn't appear in System Profiler, so as of right now it's not usable. Still looking for a cause/solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcm4 Posted June 16, 2009 Author Share Posted June 16, 2009 ... OK! I figured it out! All that you have to do is install the kext from this thread, and BOOM!, you have a working optical drive. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=88335 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
