5. Getting The Disk Out Physically

If the disk is being read again and again in an infinite loop, preventing the MacBook from ejecting it, then to get it out of loop, take a piece of thin cardboard, credit card or any material of that sort. Insert it carefully into the opening of the optical drive until it touches the disk for a few seconds and stops the CD/DVD from reading it. Then press the eject button continuously. If that doesn’t work, tilt the MacBook to a 45 degree angel in a way that the opening of optical drive faces downwards, and then press the eject button continuously.
