The same eject button works on windows too if you are using boot camp or some
sort of virtual machine, if the disc does not eject just hold the mouse button
down as you turn the mac on, this will force all drives to eject.

Hello Donna,
F12 has two functions, one is hardware and the other is software. It all
depends on how you have your FN key set.
So, if F12 controls the volume, then FN-F12 opens the Dashboard.
