Wrong size CD

[cpainter]

I accidentally put a smaller than normal size cd in the DVD/CD slot. I have since learned that this is a big no-no. But how do I get it out? The doesn’t even register that it is there. Anybody have any ideas?

Close your laptop, tilt, then shake.

Paper clip on front drive bezel.
Hold down the left mouse button at boot until the drive ejects.
If this is for a laptop post in the correct forum please.

Since you obviously don't have a Mac Pro (this is the Mac Pro sub-forum), what Mac do you have?
