Using Your DVD Drive
You can install or run software from CD and DVD discs using the DVD drive. You can also
use your DVD drive to play DVD movies, multimedia on CD-ROM discs, and music from
audio CDs.
Note: If you have older software that comes on floppy disks, contact the software
manufacturer to see if the software is available on a CD-ROM disc or purchase an external
USB or FireWire floppy disk drive (such as an LS120/SuperDisk) for your computer from your
Apple dealer or the Apple Store (www.apple.com/store).

m Place a disc in the slot, with the label of the disc facing you, and push gently until the
drive draws the disc in.
