YureZzZ Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 1. put not-blank DVD-RW 2. erase it (i did with Disco) 3. when dialog box "open with what" appears - use "Open with Finder" (not a quotation, just same meaning) 4. wait some time 5. try to eject disc. it cause Finder to freeze. How to fix that? I've experienced that with PatchBurn4 and without it in system (fresh install).

YureZzZ Posted May 18, 2007 Author Share Posted May 18, 2007 Few friends reported same problem on NEC and TEAC drives (which are same inside). And problem is not related to just DVD or something as I thought. It appears anytime with any disk. Anyone know how to solve this problem?

Dellius Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 I am currently trying to solve this problem too. I am currently looking to replace Apple's default image mounter with another program from MacUpdate.

YureZzZ Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 Alright! Solution found! Works well for me, try it on your machine. Turn OFF the thing that put hard discs into sleep. Cheers!

anemometer Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Don't know if this belongs here, but, if you are having a similar problem on Leopard the fix that YureZzZ suggested works.
