Ok Number of things you can do
1. Turn the mac on and hold the mouse button down
2. Turn the mac on and hold the "option" key down so it loads the boot loader screen when the drives appear press the eject button on the keyboard.
3. If the disk will not come out like the mac is trying to read it, wait for a while. if the mac can not read it it normally gives up and will eject it for you.

my imac has done it to me a few times not wanting to eject the media or tries to read it then keeps trying until eventually it spits it out.
