I hope someone out there can help. I'm freaking out and I'm sure someone here can help me.
I have an older powerpc g5 dual 2.0 mac. It has a superdrive that started to get a bit crazy and wouldn't recognize some store bought cds and then didn't recognize or play store bought dvds and now for some reason, since I did the latest and greatest security update from apple when I go into my apple/more info - system profiler/disc burning, my computer says I have no disc burning device. Well, I do and it spins and make all kinds of noises and it holding a copy of LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE hostage. How's that for a freakish story.
I tried to install some software thing to flash the firmware but since there's no disc burning device, the install said I didn't have a pioneer drive. I'm confused. Maybe I don't have a pioneer drive spinning LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE. Maybe I don't even exist. Maybe apple screwed up my mac. Maybe it's just a firmware problem acting up as a software problem. Maybe I'm carrying on too long.
Thanks for reading and for any future help.
