A conventional optical disk apparatus detects the amount of shift of an objective lens with a tracking error signal and an RF signal, and controls, when an optical pickup is moved, the shift amount for performing high-speed seek and high-speed access. The problem here is that this apparatus cannot be applied to an optical disk having an area where no RF signal is recorded, and requires higher costs. In view of this, an optical disk apparatus of the present invention has a shift signal detecting portion that detects a shift signal based on a push-pull signal generated during generation of a tracking error signal based on the reflected light resulting from a beam reflected from an optical disk, and a shift amount control portion that drives, when an optical pickup is moved, an objective lens actuator based on the shift signal detected by the shift signal detecting portion.
