what program do you use to burn/toast?

restart and hold down the mouse button. update firmware.

throw it at the wall :)
then keep hitting the eject disc key

^ getting there.....
i usually just burn through finder, but not much ever. maybe an exhaustion of "the wire", but now i have on of the discs stuck in there. i've tried the restart/mouse button and restart/eject button.
how do i go about updating firmware?

you can look on apple support site for firmware update, but if the mouse won't even eject your disc i don't think that's your problem

if i'm using something other than a mac mouse, does it count? or should i plug in mighty mouse to try? i have a wacom with a center scrolling wheel

acescence, thanks mate. updating firmware through utilities did the trick. i appreciate it.
