After a recent OS X update (I can’t remember which one it was exactly, sorry) I would get a prompt like the one below telling me that the SuperDrive 2.1 Update could not find any “updatable” devices. This one was driving me nuts each time I booted up my Macbook.

The solution was simple and obvious in hindsight. To make this message go away enter your “System Preferences” and head to your “Accounts” window. There is a tab there called “Login Items” that will have a list of all of the applications that run immediately when your Mac boots up.

On that list will be an item called “SuperDrive Update 2.1.” Click on it and then hit the small minus button under the list of items. Do not hide the application. You want to disable it completely so hit the minus button instead of checking the “Hide” box.

Follow those steps and the next time you start up your Mac the SuperDrive box won’t be the first thing you’re greeted with.
