HVR M15 deck when switched off causes 800 fire wire drive to un-mount

Hi
I know this was a previous posting but I couldn't see a solution to it and it has now been archived. When I'm using FCP or even when I'm not, when I switch off the HVR M15 deck it causes the Lacie drive connected via Firewire 800 to un-mount. If FCP is open the media automatically goes offline. Does anyone know a reason for this or even better a solution.
Many thanks in advance.

Use an internal dedicated drive for media.
Purchase a PCI FW card and create a second FW bus.

I can't startup to an external 800 fire wire drive loaded with 10.5?

I have a Power Mac G5 with dual 1.8 GHz cpu's, 2.5 gigabytes of ram. Boot rom version 5.1.5f0 running OSX 4.11. And a Power PC G4
Laptop with one 1,67 Ghz cpu, with 1.5 GB of ram. Boot rom version 4.9.1f1, running OSX 10.5.7. My problem is that I can't get my new 1TB Western Digital external hard drive seen when you hold down the option key on either system?
I formatted it with a fresh OSX 10.5 I bought the family pack for the operating system so I'm legal and this was the 2nd computer to be loaded. The installation was complete but on reboot it went to my internal drive so I never was able to set up the internet settings and such to this startup drive. It will show up in finder and also under the system pref, under startup drive. So when you select it under that it still will just reboot to the internal drive?
And the option button on startup still just see's the internal drive? I've spent many days and nights trying to figure out what I've done wrong? So I ended up at a Mac store with the external hard drive and it booted up perfect! So what's up? The one thing that I noticed was a different graphic. On the option thing my computer shows up with a small drive icon and a watch looking thing that takes about 30 seconds to turn into a curser and at the mac store "bam" all drives showed up and it was larger graphic and just the curser.
So what's my problem on my other 2 systems? Possibly firmware? I tried that also and everything above the ones that I currently have says that the upgrades don't apply to my machines in some form or another? Also I assume that a 1TB drive was a pipe dream back then sooo? But the OS X updates should have taken care of that?
I have a new Imac 24 inch in a box, but I won't even open it until I can get this problem figured out! I want to condense my G4 and G5 info on a boot-able external hard drive. And I want to have my new Imac clean of all the clutter. Thanks' in advance for anyone that can help me! Even the Mac guy was baffled as-to why it wouldn't work on my other systems?

That's all correct.
However (and I've just found this), not all Western Digital drives are fully boot-compatible across both Intel and PowerPC Macs. Check out this table - you may find your drive just isn't supported:

I plugged my iphone in to my laptop to update it and the computer shut down right at the end. My phone now has the itunes symbol and an arrow asking me to plug my phone into itunes (I assume the laptop). It's frozen like that even when switched off

No click when switching off

Since upgrading to IOS7 my wife's iPad Mini no longer clicks when switching off or closing the cover. Her sound settings are the same as my 3rd Gen iPad which still clicks, any ideas how to recover the sound please?

Settings>General>USE SIDE SWITCH TO>Lock Rotation.
Make sure sound is not muted in Control Center (little bell)

Why is my ipad still using battery power when switched off & locked away with no one using it?

Why is my IPad still discharging battery when switched off and locked away - with no one using it? Charged it to 100% on holiday and locked in safe. 2 days later it was at 76%!

How is it "switched off"? Are you pressing the button on the top so the screen goes black? If so, that isn't shut off, but put to sleep. I will still be doing things in the background and using battery power.
To shut it fully off, press and hold the button on top, you will get a notification on the screen that says "Slide to power off". Slide the button and it will turn completly off.
If this is how you switched it off, let us know and we will see what else we can figure out.

Zen Micro lose Power when Switched OFF??

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same problem as me. I fully charged my Zen Micro last night and then left it and just switch it on for the first time now (8 hours later), and the battery indicator shows 2 bars left?
Seems like the Zen Micro loses power even when switched off!?!
Can anyone confirm that this is the case and whether I can do anything to stop it from happening? Is this normal with Hard Dri've MP3 player or only with the Zen Micro?
Thanks.

<EDIT: (April st, 2005):<<FONT color=#330000>JazzMC has taken the initiati've and written a sort of FAQ and put together a website with all the information to date gathered in one place regarding this power drain of the Zen Micro while off (in standby). It's a great read for those who want more information about the subject and probably easier than wading through this thread.<FONT color=#330000>You can view the document by clicking here: <Zen Micro Power Loss<. <FONT color=#330000>Thanks JazzMC!
Ditto here. I did do a disk cleanup last week and the micro seems to be holding it's charge longer now. It's still draining the battery while sitting idle though according to the bar indicator, but slower (go figure?). This is my only real issue with the Zen Micro as I love it otherwise!
One wierd thing I noticed was I charged it full then left it sit for about 3 days (checking it off and on) then on day 3 it was at one bar. So I plugged it into my home sterio and turned it on to see how long it would play for. I was really surprised to see it last a few minutes shy of 9 hours...
Could this be a battery calibration thing instead of it just loosing charge? Like the meter misreads the batteries actual charge over time instead of it loosing power?
Donno it's wacky, please fix Creative!

New 27" has only 1 800 Fire Wire

I am considering buying a new iMac 27". I see that it has only 1, 800 Fire Wire port and no 400 FW port. I use my computer for editing video via FCS3. One of the cameras I have is a Canon XHA1 it's output is Fire Wire 400. I import footage to a external drive which is a Lacie 1.5 tb with a 400-800 Fire Wire port.
Is the connector and cord for 400 & 800 Fire Wire the same or are they physically different?
What is the best way for me to solve this problem? The best work flow? Could I capture from the camera 400 FW into the iMac 800 FW port and then transfer the data to the Lacie?
Of the new iMac 27" models how much faster would the Quad i5 or i7 be over the duo 3.06 model? Let's assume that we were transcoding a 1 gb project? My current computer has a duo 2.16 how would it compare? Is it correct to assume that because 3.06 is almost 50% more than 2.16 that there would be a 50% increase in speed or in other words the 3.06 would do the job in half the time?
Thanks
Kent

Having a FW 800 port is no problem, the port will also support FW 400 so connecting to your camera is no issue. The cable connectors are physically different however you should only need an adapter like this
As far as your work flow that's up to you, you can daisy chain your Lacie to the Canon so the iMac will see both devices. That means when you want to import video you can have it go directly from the camera to the Lacie HD if you want.
As far as how much faster the Quad core machines will be is anyones guess at this point because they haven't begun shipping so bench tests have been done. As you probably know they're expected to ship sometime this month, I'm sure that soon after they ship different bench tests will be done and then your can get some real data. When will that be, my guess is within within several weeks of their ship date. Until then everything is speculation and people quoting numbers are guessing, it's just that simple.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Roger

HT4425 I was told by apple support the thunderbolt connection could be used to connect an 800 fire wire. Is that correct?

Only if you are able to find a Thunderbolt to Firewire adaptor.

5800 unusual behaviour when switching off

Recently I have noticed my 5800 appearing to cycle through different apps when I switch it off. For example, when I press the power button and select switch off it goes to the Vodafone welcome screen as normal but then it jumps back to the main home screen followed by a rapid cycle through contacts, messaging, calendar and even the alarm screen where it will stay for about 5 seconds and then switch itself off as normal.
More recently, and more of a concern was the phone attempting to connect to the internet without me wanting it to. I followed instructions on here about setting the packet data connection to "when needed" but this made no difference. So then I decided to reformat the software as suggested on here also. So I did the *#7370# trick and reformatted the software. This seems to have cured the connecting to the internet problem but the switch off problem still persists.
I should add that my Firmware version was up-to-date at version 21.0.025 according to PC Suite.
Any ideas what's up?

i dont know if it is unusual, but my n97 actually does the same thing. itsjust shutting down the apps as it is shutting down the phone. i would not be too alarmed with this issue if i were you.

Not recording when switch off "camera sounds" option

Hi,
When i switch off the option in french "Désactiver le
bruit de l'appareil photo" (switch off camera sounds ?) so the
"clictch" camera sound each time a new picture is take, .. then
Captivate don't captivate anything.. i just have the first image
and that's all... !
Using this "clitch" sounds is absolutly not professional for
the purpose we should do !!
with the export problem, we are not really happy of this new
version of Captivate for now !!

Hi cyborgjeff
Unless you are recording your narration at the same time as
your main movie (which is not best practice, but to each his/her
own) you won't hear the shutter sound in your resulting movie. Did
you double-check to ensure you have the "Enable auto-recording"
check box selected?
Cheers... Rick

I have also restartet and restored my ipod yet, but also this don't work. I also do not press pause befor switching off my ipod, but all this does not help. do you have any other solutions?

My new iPhone 4S loses battery life even when switched off?

Purchased a new iPhone just last week.
I drained the battery completely and then full cycle charged it. Disabled Siri, location, apps, notifications etc.
So far I have been very conservative with my iPhone making phone calls and texts only.
Just started to notice these past 3 days that i lose 2-3% of battery life even when my iPhone is switched off..
How is this even possible?
Any help or advice on how i can solve this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Latest Nvidia drivers freeze when switch off or standby monitor

Hi,
I have a problem with latest drivers nvidia x86_64 on my Geforce 9500, when my monitor off or standby all, system freeze and kernel panic.
I search on internet and i found this threat on nv forum with same problem. http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthr … f&t=169158 and attach log it's same that my problem
I partial fix this problems remove the driver from pacman and install a downgrade version 285.05 from nv website. http://www.nvidia.es/object/linux-displ … er-es.html
anyone with same problem?

bharath1097 wrote:Also kernel panic occurs only when i manually switch off the monitor and try to turn it on again. It does not occur when it turns off due to power management.
yes, it's same like me. Only i can work with a 285.05 version from scratch. I have investigated and i think that there is a problem with lastest drivers with Geforce 9xxx series. Also i see other problems, slow scroll on websites navigation and other problems with compiz.

Why do screen of Satellite A100 flashes when switched off?

Hi,
I have a toshiba A100,Go 7600 Gpu, just bought it two weeks ago, and im very satisfied with the quality and performance so far :), just noticed one thing today, the room light was off and the laptop switched off with the screen in open position, i leave it open normally when at home, i noticed that the screen flashes like every 1 min in what seems like fixed interval of time, with or without AC plugged in, not a very bright flash though not easily noticed, but im sure it does flash, so my question is should i be worried about that? thanks in advance :)

> Now that Im not getting any feedback on this should I be worried?
Maybe nobody has noticed something similar on the A100.
Im an A100 owner and I have not noticed anything like this issue.
You write above:
>not a very bright flash though not easily noticed
I think nobody stare at the display and wait till something will flash while the OS shuts down
So please dont be mad at me because I think either you have some kind of hallucinations ;) and you are little bit paranoid or there is really something wrong and you need a help from the ASP.
So if you think this is an display fault then try to contact the ASP in your country and explain the guys this problem.
Good luck
