  • I have upgraded to Lion Os but my Network storage (Iomega Home Media Network hard drive) does not work with Time Machine.  Are there any solution available?

    I have upgraded to Lion  OS only to find that my NAS (Iomega Home Media Network hard drive) does not work.  It tells me that it is not configured.  Are there any solutions .  Have Iomega sorted out the problem?

    Same issue here.  Based on what I can tell, iomega still has not developed a solution to the problem.  See below:

  • External hard drive does not work

    I bought an external USB hard drive. At first, it worked. I could see an icon on my desktop and could load some stuff onto it.
    Then I unplugged it (probably the wrong way, I just unplugged it) and when I replugged it, I could not see the icon anymore and when I go into the system specification/USB specs, I cannot see anything plugged in the port.
    When I plug the drive in my old iMac, it work. I can see the icon AND the stuff that was previously loaded on the drive.
    What should I do?
    Thanks

    The case's chipset(s) probably limit the size of drive/partition it can use.
    If you need a larger drive than the case originally held, you probably need
    to get a newer external drive enclosure that supports a newer/larger drive
    of the type and kind you need.
    As to the other issue ahead of this; if the hard drive in use is not discon-
    nected properly, damages can result and you may need to use disk repair
    tools or utilities to see if they can find the drive or fault behind this issue
    and repair it. Maybe diskwarrior; or perhaps even the disk utility in the OSX
    version the problem happened to occur. If there is a bad sector or startup
    section in the suspect drive, it may be possible to find the drive using a
    utility and see if it can be fixed; or it may need to be reformatted.
    Pulling the plug on an attached drive is a bad idea; you need to drag the
    icon of the external drive to the Trash, or use the finder's eject feature
    to unmount these drives. They are not randomly hot swappable.

  • External USB HD does not work with HAL:

    External USB HD does not work with HAL:
    From the last 10 days the HAL auto-mount with ntfs-3g file system of my external hard drive  does not woks.
    But the manual mount procedure with the command mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb* /mnt/XYZ works.
    I've followed the instructions in the wiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HAL and the system has worked up to the last kernel or HAL update.

    I have done the following:
    Downloaded the patched hal version.
    used makepkg in /abs/local/trunk/ to create a pkg for pacman
    used sudo pacman -U pkgname to install it.
    used sudo nano /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi to create the fdi file with the following content:
    saved the file and removed my ntfs entryes from fstab and rebooted. and still there is no automount off ntfs partitions.
    have i done something wrong?
    br fjodork
    WARNING: what follows is a guide of what did work for me, I'm still in an early stage of learning linux, so please correct me if anything of what follows is wrong/dangerous/stupid. As I said, this worked for me, it's not pretty, since I was learning each step on the fly and I'm sure there are better ways to do this.
    So fjodork, you seem to have done the the necessary steps, though i couldn't get it to work until i first removed hal without dependencies
    pacman -Rd hal
    it will give you some warning about the dependencies, ignore  it since we are reinstalling hal in a few steps.
    First i tried to follow Raymano's link, obviously it showed me nothing in the browser so I thought it might be a broken link.
    So I downloaded the source tarball from here http://hal.freedesktop.org/releases/hal-0.5.10.tar.gz
    unpacked it changed the /tools/hal-storage-mount.c as per Milfadoodle's instructions.
    at first I tried to compile directly from source, the process would finish without a glitch though after reboot nothing changed, as if hal weren't
    installed, i guess there were issues with paths. anyway read on
    Then repacked the source in tarball, copied it to /var/abs/extra/system/hal and modified the PKGBUILD as follows
    makedepends=('pkgconfig' 'gperf')
    options=('!libtool')
    install=hal.install
    source=(${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz #removed url so makepkg looks in the current directory for the tarball
        hal
        hal-policy.patch
        cryptsetup_location.patch
        hal-0.5.9-hide-diagnostic.patch
        ntfs3g-valid-options.patch)
    md5sums=('6641c30a27c00485c6accac5110ff911' # replace with md5sum of your package's sourceball (run md5sum filename)
             '882f67668cb14a0a9e4a27ef22278027'
             '5ba8b610aa9763a5f42b9f7cbd7a86ad'
    then makepkg (i had to add --asroot, don't ask why
    and finally pacman -U hal-0.5.10-1-i686.pkg
    another reboot and everything worked without a glitch!:D (yeah i know i still haven't got rid of the reboot mentality )
    I have also put the policy files as per the wiki instructions.
    PS: I know this is a dirty way to getting things done but as i said, I'm just starting
    If anyone could comment/correct/explain this post I'd be more than happy, the automount issue was bothering me for about a month now (you'll say why do I need ntfs in the first place? well, I only recently switched for Linux as my primary OS, these are some relics of the M$ era

  • External hard drive is not working on airport time capsule even after 7.7.2 firmware update.

    External hard drive is not working on airport time capsule even after 7.7.2 firmware update.
    I have the latest Airpor Time capsule 2gb. I specifically bought it so that I could have an external hardrive set up to wirelessly house my itunes library and movies. When i connect the drive, all i get is that the disk needs to be repaired.
    the drive can works fine when connected to the macbook pro and I have run the verify and repair features in disk utility. I have also reset the airport timecapsule as well following these changes and still no change.
    The 7.7.2 update says that it addressed the usb issue of not showing the drives but there are still problems as I cannot get it to appear.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    How is the hard drive formatted?
    Have you tried using a powered USB hub with the drive when it is connected to the Time Capsule?
    (The USB port on the Time Capsule is borderline as far as power is concerned....you may need to use a powered hub.....even if the hard drive has its own power supply)
    If the drive is formatted correctly....and....it has ample power, it will "show up" when you open AirPort Utility, click Edit, then click the Disks tab at the top of the next window.
    In the example below, my Time Capsule drive is named "Backups" and another drive named "WD Drive" is connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule.
    You should see the name of your Time Capsule drive (named "Data" unless you have changed the name) and the name of the USB drive if you perform the same check.
    What do you see?

  • My external hard drive does not show up on my desktop

    My external hard drive does not show up on my dest top but, does shows in my Windows (vmware fusion) end although I can't see it ob my desktop but, I can eject it properly like any external drive. I have connected it to my windows and ejected properly (per the suggestion of someone on this forum) but, it still doesn't show on my Mac. I see the blue light and hear it running though. I have looked for it in disk utility but, still can find it. I have changed the cable and it still did not show on my Mac. I connected another external drive  and that showed up on my desktop.Any help????

    if it is NTFS then you need Paragon Software NTFS for Mac.
    NTFS volumes are suppose to be read only but in practice external drives don't always mount or work.
    If it is not NTFS then you need more details. Need more anyway.
    PS: this is not a MacBook area, it is Mac 65lbs tower related forum.

  • External hard drive does not shut down

    Hello, When my mini mac goes to sleep my samsung external hard drive does not shut down or dismount properly. when i wake computer i have a error message stating improperly ejected hard drive. It also does not reconize HD until I disconnect and reconnet??? PLEASE HELP Thank you

    My Mini was doing the same thing until I reset the PRAM. With four external drives. They would stop inadvertently with an "improperly ejected" error. Granted two of the drives went bad (6 and 7 years old) but a brand spanking new Seagate and a 3 year old Hitachi drive doing the same. Haven't seen the error since resetting the PRAM.
    If you don't know how to do that, Reboot while holding the Cmd+Opt+P+R keys until your hear the startup chime three times and then release the keys.

  • External Hard Drive does not mount

    My 2TB external hard drive does not mount and I cannot get it to.  Have tried turning the hard drive off and then back on.  No response.  Any thoughts as to how I can get it to be recognized?

    You can try doing a SMC reset, if it doesn't work the first time it's totally OK to reset the SMC several times.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • HT3275 Time Machine says my external hard drive does not have enough

    Time Machine says my external hard drive does not have enough space for the current backup.  It needs 34 G out of a 250G hard drive.  All that is on the drive is earlier backups.  I recently added memory, which may confuse Time Machine into thinking it is a new computer.  How can I erase old backups and complete this one?

    See #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting. 
    If that doesn't clear it up, how much data is on your Mac?  If TM is only trying to back-up 34 GB, it should be able to delete old backups to do that (assuming you're running Lion).
    It sounds like your backups may be corrupted.  Try to repair them, per #A5 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
    I recently added memory, which may confuse Time Machine into thinking it is a new computer.
    If that's all you did, no.

    Just erase the drive per #1 or #2 of Using Disk Utility.

    Either it's incompatible or it's a PPC-only application. PPC applications are no longer supported in Lion because there is no longer a Rosetta emulator. Contact Corel for support.

  • How can I go back to snow leopard my epson stylus Photo TX810FW does not work with Lion

    My Epson Stylus Photo TX810FW printer does not work with Lion how do I go back to Snow Leopard?

    Did you try removing the printer from the queue and then reinstalling it?
    I attempted to print this morning for the first time after upgrading to Lion and discovered that while everything appeared normal on my Epson printer, it would never print.
    I opened System Preference > Print & Scan and deleted the printer.
    I then added the printer back and it now working again. Worth a shoot first I should think.
    Much easier the a downgrade.
