DrSupachicken Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Hello, Is there anyway to get the eject button in the top of the finder bar to work? Here is my spec 10.4.8 JaS SSE2 SSE3 Pentium D 915 | Intel D945GTP | GMA950 | 1GB DDR2 | 80GB SATA 2 | Sony DRU DVD-RW | Lite-on CD-RW Both drives function well and the eject key on the keyboard works, but I can't use the button in the top of the finder. Cheers. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/56135-eject-button-doesnt-work/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers. i have your set up and i don't have an eject button in the finder bar...if you can't eject your media by dragging it to the trash can, which turns in to eject button...try holding down the F12 key for two seconds and you should be fine...

guilliamo Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 In my experience, the OSX PPC menu bar eject button is OK with multiple optical drives...you get a drop down menu asking which drive to eject. However, the OSX Intel menu bar eject button seems to choke/play dead (at least on hackintoshes) with multiple optical drives. You might try temporarily disconnected one of your optical drives and see if that is your issue too. If so, don't know of a fix...maybe Leopard ???

DrSupachicken Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 Hi Guillamo, I might try and find a way to remove it, but doesn't matter. Everything functions perfectly bar onboard sound and that button. Ciao.

Tophicles Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Hey there! The easiest way to nuke that null "eject" button is to drag it off the top menubar. Just like the dock, it'll *poof* it's way out. It's a script for ejecting, but my guess is that it has something to do with floppy drives being recognized as removeable media. I had that button on my home desktop (with a floppy) but not my Compaq notebook (no floppy). Just my $.02, but I dragged that little guy and poofed it into the netherworld Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/56135-eject-button-doesnt-work/#findComment-401331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrSupachicken Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 Heya, I'll try unplug the power from the floppy tomorrow, but I honestly don't think it would have anything to do with as, floppy isnt recongized unless it is external usb which it is not.
