Force Eject Usb Mac
- On your Mac, choose Apple menu Log Out, then log in again. Try to eject the disc again. If you still can't eject the CD or DVD, choose Apple menu Restart. While your computer restarts, press and hold the mouse or trackpad button until the disc is ejected.
- Hold down your trackpad button (or your left mouse button) and restart your Mac. Hold the button down until the desktop appears. This will trigger the system to eject your disc before OS X begins loading. Shut down the Mac and restart it, then let it sit for 15 minutes. After a short amount of time, the disc may eject itself.

l am trying to Eject my USB HD safely by clicking on the the Eject icon on 'Finder' window every time l finish using it. Since l am now using it to update my podcasts on iTunes, l can't eject if iTunes is open. So l close iTunes, but it seems like the only way to get it disconnected is to 'Force Eject', or l could just shutdown the whole computer and detach. But are either of these steps 100% safe? I don't quite understand it won't allow me to eject as all programs are closed, and only one Finder window remains. please see attachments.
how should l eject it safely?
cheers
