  • "Memory Overview" not listed in Apple System Profiler

    I have a beige G3 minitower running OS 10.2.6 that currently has 192 MB RAM. I am set to get more RAM for this machine, but I noticed that my Apple System Profiler doesn't even have a Memory Overview category showing what RAM is presently in which slot. (I'm used to seeing that in OS 9.2) In other words, I see the software, hardware, network, and production information overviews in the System Profile tab but not the Memory overview. (I get the 192 MB when I choose About This Mac from the Apple menu.) Did Apple discontinue the Memory Overview feature with Jaguar? Or is there some Preference or View I need to set? (The Preferences command is greyed out on the Apple System Profiler menu)It just seems strange to me that I can't get specific info on the currently installed RAM

    Patroklus,
    That is what is showing on the right hand side of the page, correct?
    What I listed, is what is in the left column of System Profiler, when all of the Disclosure Triangles are clicked, and pointing down.
    I then click on Memory, to highlight it, and on the right side of the Profiler,
    my Memory Slots are displayed.

  • ISight not showing up in System Profiler

    I have tried SMC reset, safeboot, and many other things to try to get iSight to work with my Macbook Pro. It does not show up in the System Profiler. Any ideas?

    Then you most likely have a hardware problem. See your Apple Service Technician for help.
    As suggested in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 :
    If your built-in iSight camera is still not behaving correctly after trying all these steps, you may need to contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.

  • Applications not showing up in System Profiler?

    Anyone know why? All it says is "no information found" and hitting "refresh" makes no difference.
    Could it be somehow it uses spotlight to find the applications?
    It shows up the same blank page whether I boot into 64 or 32 bit.
    Thanks!

    Applications still not showing up. I also tried a safe boot; no go. The safe boot did solve another issue I was having; my security panel in system preferences would not open. After it did in safe boot, it opens in my main administrator account.
    But no go on the applications in sys profiler. However, I did install the same 10.6.5 on another internal drive with all updates, and THAT boot WILL show me all my applications, including all the ones on two parallels windows versions (XP and 7) and my bootcamp windows drive, so if I need a list, I'll do that.
    I'm guessing probably a symbolic link to the applications folder is amiss or possibly system profiler preferences.
    But don't know how to futz with those.
    Thanks.
    P.S. OK, I do know how to futz with the sysprofiler plist. Not the problem. Did the usual... dragged it to the trash, opened up system profiler, it created a new plist, STILL no applications showing up.
    I haven't moved my applications nor anything in my home folder nor changed my name or anything. Just really strange.

  • Upgrading RAM cards not showing up in system profiler... is this normal?

    Just replaced both 1GB RAM cards in my macbook pro with two 2GB RAM cards, but when I go into "about my mac" it is still saying that I only have 2GB of memory, and when I go into system profiler and click "memory" it is still showing/giving details on two 1GB cards, is this normal or did I not install the new RAM cards properly? I assumed it would update the info to show the additional memory?

    This is not normal
    Open up the Mac and reseat the RAM modules. This may help.
    If this doesn't resolve the issue, return the modules to the supplier and get the proper modules.
    Best.

  • Serial number not showing up in system profiler

    hi,
    i recently had a problem with my speakers in macbook.
    i sent it for service and the service center replaced my main board
    now the system profiler is not showing my serial number.
    do any one know how to fix this problem.

    You would need to send it back to have the serial number burned in to the board. This seems to be a common occurrence when the board is replaced. There should be a number you can call on the paperwork from the repair and discuss it with them.

  • CPU not showing up in System Profiler

    Hi,
    I have a 4 year old Dual 2.5 GHz G5 which I think has had a CPU failure (B CPU). The system profiler states that I only have one, not two CPU's.
    Is it a case of using a repair CD to reset the lost CPU or is it dead?
    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards
    Dean

    Hi Dean,
    Ouch... Well I've gathered up a few alternative solutions, though you might want to give an Apple Authorized Repairer a call for an estimate: http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/
    Here are some links to wade through if you'd like to get a replacement. The first is way over priced, that store always is, but it does show the part is out there:
    http://www.welovemacs.com/appomacg5du255.html
    I had a good experience with this place once awhile back:

    And this link provides even more links:

    Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

  • LaCie flash drive not recognized as a drive, but shows up in system profiler. Please help!!

    I recently got a LaCie RuggedKey 16 gb flash drive. The problem is that recently I plugged in the drive and I can't access the files, however, it shows up in system profiler. There are still files on the drive, and I really need them. Can you please help me recover them?

    If you're connecting the drive through a hub, connect it directly to a built-in port on the Mac.
    If you're connecting it directly, try a different port.
    Disconnect all other devices on the bus, or as many as possible.
    Test the drive with another Mac. Test another drive with this Mac.
    Boot into Recovery and launch Disk Utility. Is the drive recognized?
    Start up in Safe Mode and test.
    Reset the NVRAM.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If the drive doesn't work under any of the above conditions, and if another drive does work with the same Mac, then the drive has failed.

  • New Hard disk is not appearing in the System Profiler

    I am doing a fresh install using my ligitimate Snow Leopard DVD  on my USB disk.
    My SSD is not appearing in the System Profiler under Hardware>ATA
    or under Hardware>Serial-ATA
    It is a PATA device as was the original disk I've replaced.
    So I have NO disk to install onto.
    Any ideas what the problem could be?
    ===
    History
    My hard disk died, and I am replacing it with an SSD.
    I bought a Mach Xtreme Technology Pata 1.8" SSD (Part no MXSSD1MNANOZ-120G)
    (I can send this back if I have to)
    The SSD is unusual in that it has to be a 1.8" size with a ZIF PATA connector.
    The SSD is preformatted (but not necessarily to Apple formatting).
    With the SSD the same way around to the original 80GB HDD, Pin 1 of the new SSD is towards the back of the computer.
    I cannot find any information as to which Pin on the original HDD is Pin 1.
    I used this tutorial to dismantle and reassemble: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnV7mHS7Qi8
    I've double checked the connections inside.

    Thanks, this was the answer.
    The connector on the SSD I used was indeed arranged reverse to the original Apple Drive. So it looked different to all the tutorials.
    I knew where Pin 1 was on the new SSD but could not see it on the old drive.
    The original 80GB hard disk had Pin 1 is towards the middle of the computer.
    Flipping the SSD over meant it was about 3mm closer to the back, which made the zif ribbon buckle. So I had to cut away some of the rubber shock absorber to the back, and use tape. The SSD should not need the shock absorber as it is not mechanical/vibrating.
    It is now working well.
    (Although I now have a different problem restoring from the Time Machine.   )

  • Why does Windows 7 not show up in System Preference's "Startup Disk"

    Why does Windows 7, installed via Boot Camp, show up when you hold down the option key when booting but the drive does not show up in System Preferences under the Startup Disk icon.
    As an aside Windows 7 runs perfectly on my MacBook.
    - Mike

    Now I found I'm not alone. My situation is similar but not exactly the same.
    I recently switched from the white MacBook to latest mac mini, tried installing XP Pro not successful for some reasons then tried Win7 (build 7000). On my old macbook this worked perfectly.
    Got win7 updated and picked win7 as startup disk in windows, used that for few days without going back to leopard. On just one occasion I booted with 'alt' key pressed (using a PC keyboard) I have choices of drives so I thought everything was fine. As soon as I booted into leopard I found no win7 partition in system>preference>startup disk, OMG I couldn't boot back to win7 since then. From that point onwards the 'alt' key didn't work for me. Every time only leopard can be booted.
    What can I do now?
    Why it was OK in macbook but didn't work on mini? Is it worth investing on a mac external keyboard just to get the 'option' key?

  • New Superdrive doesn't show up in System Profiler

    My old superdrive died on me, so I ordered a new one from powerbookmedic.com.
    After installing, it doesn't show up in System Profiler. I've quadruple-checked the connection and I can hear it make regular healthy sounds when booting up so I know it's getting power but once I'm inside OSX; nothing.
    I tried resetting the PRAM and SCM as recommended on this forum for various superdrive trouble. Although it didn't change anything and I'm guessing don't apply here.
    Any tips for getting OSX to recognize my drive?

    It's equipped with a SATA drive - that's why.

  • Hard Drive Shows Up In System Profile, But Not On Desktop

    I took the old hard drive out of my intel mac mini (60gb fuji) and installed it on my power mac g5 (1.8 single); it worked long enough for me to copy all my old files over before it randomly froze and i had to restart. after that the new drive only shows up in the system profiler and not on the desktop. in the system profiler it states its capacity but not how much is available, like the main drive. any ideas on how to get the old drive working again?

    figured it out, thanks!

  • IPod shows up in system profiler but not in /dev and disk utility

    Hi,
    I have a Problem with my iPod. It works perfectly when I connect it to other macs.
    Though on my mac it appears only in the system profiler, but not in itunes, /dev or diskutilities. Other USB devices are working correctly.
    I already reseted my ipod but this doesn't solve the problem. Neither did the update of the iPod firmware.
    Does somebody know this Problem? What can I try to solve it?
    Thanks.
    About my iPod:
    It's an iPod Touch, system Profiler is telling:
    Version:          0.01
      Bus Power (mA):          500
      Speed:          Up to 480 Mb/sec
      Manufacturer:          Apple Inc.
      Product ID:          0x1293
      Serial Number:
      Vendor ID:          0x05ac  (Apple Computer, Inc.)
    iTunes says:
    serial number: 910952nua75j
    Running the system 4.2.1
    About my Mac:
    It's a MacBook Pro, 2,16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, running 10.4.11

    I'm pretty upset. It seems that the only solution to this problem is to buy some new mac products!
    I have Applications on my computer that will not work on a new system and I don't want to update my system + all expensive apps just because my ipod refuse to downgrade.
    I used to be a mac fan and I still like it, but this kind of "tricks" are unacceptable. I bought an ipod because I didn't want to spend time on fixing some stupid problems and now I already spent weeks trying to make my expensive ipod work on my mac (and all this because of a stupid firmware problem). I am now really disapointed.
    So if anyone should have an idea on if it's possible to downgrade my ipod (or other solution?) in order to make it work again with my system, please post it here. Thanks.

  • Device shows up on System Profiler but not Disk Utility or Finder

    I have a Samsung P3 which up until now has worked perfectly; I plug it in, move files onto it, and then eject it.
    But a few days ago I was charging it on the mac and in the morning unplugged it in a hurry without ejecting. I don't know but this might be the cause of the problem.
    Basically I can't find the P3. The device itself says that it is connected, and it registers on System Profiler, but it is not on Finder or Disk Utility, and I can't move anything onto it or get to it at all.
    How do I solve this?
    I don't really want to download any software if that's ok.
    Thank you!

    NO such thing as a Buffalo HD, contains a Seagate HD inside the box.
    verify on another Mac if same, likely this very common issue, read about same here:
    SATA card failure:
    Your dead external hard drive is likely fine! Great hope for your 'faulty' external HD
