Amazingly, is there a CD player in MacBook Pro? Apple has discontinued its non-Retina legacy MacBook Pro, the last Mac it sold with a built-in CD/DVD drive. The 13-inch notebook had not been updated since June 2012, but it remained available for purchase on Apple’s website for $1,099 until today.
Moreover, why is my Mac not reading my CD player? Make sure the disc is correctly placed in the drive. See if the disc is dirty or damaged. The easiest way to do this is to try it in another computer with a compatible drive. If it’s an audio CD or a video DVD, you might also try it in a CD or DVD player.
Subsequently, how do you watch a CD on a Mac? Playing a DVD on a Mac is extremely simple. Just insert the DVD into your Super DVD drive (Super DVD drive is Apple’s optical disc reading and writing technology). The DVD player will open automatically and start playing the disc. You can open it using the Menu and click Play to run the movie.
Likewise, how do I play a CD on my Mac without a CD drive? An external optical drive will allow you to access discs on your Mac. To do this, you’ll need to buy an external disc reader that plugs into your Mac via a USB cable. Such an external drive could read CDs and DVDs, play Blu-Rays, and even burn discs — if that’s what you want.
