Problem with my USB drive

My MacbookPro (mid 2010) is not recognising any USBs that I'm inserting into it. I'm not sure what/ how it happened, but is there some way I can restart my MBP to the previous session when there weren't any issues with it? If that isn't the way to do it, please advice on how I can resolve this issue. Thanks heaps!

Take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.  It's possible you have a hardware issue. 
If you are still under warranty or have Apple Care, call them first and get a case number.

  • [SOLVED] Problem with external USB drive started yesterday

    My system freezes for about 65 seconds at the login screen. After 65 seconds, I can login and everything is normal afterwards.
    I discovered that I can eliminate the freeze by disconnecting the external USB drive from the PC. Here are the error messages from kernel.log when the drive is connected:
    Oct 15 23:10:14 localhost kernel: [ 17.035091] usb 1-1.3: device descriptor read/64, error -110
    Oct 15 23:10:29 localhost kernel: [ 32.155955] usb 1-1.3: device descriptor read/64, error -110
    Oct 15 23:10:29 localhost kernel: [ 32.325394] usb 1-1.3: new high speed USB device number 4 using ehci_hcd
    Oct 15 23:10:31 localhost kernel: [ 34.045126] MediaState is connected
    There is supposed to be a kernel boot option (irqpoll) to prevent this from occurring. However, that option seems to no longer work for kernels after 2.6.39. If I try using it with Arch, the system will not boot, saying all the CPU's failed.
    I also don't understand why this just started happening yesterday, as the USB drive has been connected to the PC longer than I've been using Arch. Also, my kernel has not been updated since I installed Arch on Oct 8.
    Does anyone know another fix or workaround for this problem?
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Problem solved
    I feel stupid, but I also feel better. I turned off the PC, disconnected the power from the USB drive for about 15 seconds, reconnected the power, rebooted, removed the irqpoll kernel option, and Ubuntu started, perfectly. I need to learn that the USB drive just goes freaky sometimes and remember to do this. But, this is only the second time I've had to do this in months of use.

  • Problem with the usb drives

    After re-instal of the Lion my Macbook pro does not see any of the external hard drives, usb, phones etc. What can be the problem?

    Several thoughts ... when you're having interface problems, do an SMC reset instead of a PRAM reset, as often USB/Firewire operations issues are power-related:
    1. From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
    2. Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
    3. Wait at least 15 seconds.
    4. Plug the power cord back in, making sure the power button is not being pressed at the time. Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
    5. Press the power button on the back to start up your computer.
    Are there any driver or firmware upgrades for either of the drives? If you haven't, you might check on the manufacturers web site.
    Also, does the firewire drive also support USB? Have you tired it on USB, for comparison?

  • [SOLVED] Problem with second SATA drive

    My laptop has two hard drive bays, and just recently I added a second SATA drive (moved it from my old laptop) to the extra bay.
    Now, anytime the second hard drive /dev/sdb has any heavy disk activity, it appears to cause a shutdown of the SATA port for the first drive (/dev/sda)!  Though the second drive is still fine, and I can still write to it until the system crashes from the root drive (on /dev/sda) being shutdown.
    If I don't mount and use the second drive, the first drive works just fine, and I can pound it with traffic without issue.
    I can reproduce this problem by copying large amounts of data to drive 2.
    This is when I get in my dmesg when the first SATA drive shuts down:

    I have experimented, and found that if I turn off NCQ on the kernel command line in my bootloader (libata.force=noncq), that it takes longer before the problem occurs.  Though, if I write enough to the second drive, it does still happen after a while, just greatly reduced its chances of happening.
    Is it possible that the old drive (sdb) is causing the problem?  I noticed that it is much noisier than I remember when the drive head moves around.
    Another curiosity while I was trying to duplicate the problem:
      - I start a large file copy from sda -> sdb
      - At the same time in another terminal, I do "find / -print"
      - When I hear the drive 2 head moving, it pauses the output of the "find" command.
    Every time I hear the head move, I see the find output pause.  Its almost like the drive seek on drive 2 causes the whole Sata controller to pause while the head moves.  Very odd!
    Anyone have any ideas?   I think the next thing I will try is borrow a drive from another machine, and do the big write to it to see if I get the same results.
    If it is of any help, here is some more info on the laptop:

    It appears my drive one really is failing.  It was the first drive and not the second making the loud head seek sound.  I borrowed another drive from a friend, and copied my drive one to it.   No problems with the new drive in place.

  • Problem with i915 Intel driver panic..

    Hello,
    I just recently reinstalled Arch on my laptop.  I have a problem with my laptop. When I went to install the Nvidia Optimus stuff and configure my Xorg.conf I was met with problems with the Intel Driver timing out.  When I boot up I get the normal post screen, then grub, I then go to see the GDM login and instead of getting it I just get a black screen.  When I remove the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-monitor.conf I can boot into Gnome Shell, else I have to switch run levels and login that way.  I have every package up-to-date.  And I haven't seen an /var/log/Xorg.0.log either else I would have posted it.  One other thing is I have added my user account to the Bumblebee account.  One other thing is when I move my web browser around my video flickers..  Any help I can receive with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi
    I assume you have installed the graphic card driver from the Intel website and you use NOT a Toshiba graphic driver which was designed especially for the notebook usage.
    Well, Toshiba recommend using the Toshiba drivers. In this case you should try to use the recommended graphic driver which you can download from the Toshiba driver page.

  • Problems with the USB Ports

    Hi there,
    I writing this because I'm having some really big problems with my USB ports.
    A few days ago I plugged in an USB-Hub that was quite cheap. Suddenly a window popped up saying that a USB device was deactivated because it "needed" to much power. Since this happening, two of those windows keep popping up everytime I boot the MacBook. I called Apple and got some help: I had to delete some .plist files and clear some caches. The man who helped was able to find the error and deactivate the notification, he also told me to make a PRAM- and a SMC-reset. The man said that it's just a software problem and that I have to reinstall the system if we don't find a solution. So, one day later I reinstalled the system (Lion) and not only didn't it help, the two notification windows were popping up again...everytime I booted the Mac. So I decided to formate the whole hard drive and install Snow Leopard -> still the problem with the USB ports. After that I installed Lion  -> still the problem with the USB ports. I even tried to extract the .kext files that are important for the USB functionality from an earlier Combo Update, but it didn't help either. The point is, that the Mac doesn't recognize my external hard drive or any of my iDevices. Sometimes it recognizes USB sticks, but only after 20 seconds. The data transfer on both USB ports is also very slow. If I'm lucky and Mac recognizes one of my USB sticks, it takes like an hour for 1GB to be transfered on the USB stick or from the USB sticks to the Mac.
    I really don't know what to do and need help, especially because my backup data is on my external hard drive which I can't access because of this problem.
    I really hope that someone can help me, I'm very thankful for every answer that could help me!
    PS: Sorry for my bad English, I hope that everyone understands what I mean, please tell me if you don't get what I'm trying to explain in the text above.
    Sincerely,
    iLoud
    [UPDATE] I downloaded "USB Prober" and copied the Output file, maybe it helps:

  • Problem with SB1240 USB sound card

    I'm pulling hair here! I've just bought a SB240. Windows (XP Pro, SP3) detected it and I can select it fine for listening. But when I open Sound and Audio Device Properties and select Sound Recording/Volume, I see the Capture panel with the three inputs, but all the controls are greyed out and immovable. I also use the application "Total Recorder" by High Criteria, in which I can select the SB240 device but the only input line it sees is SPDIF Interface.
    I'm stumped. Can anyone help?
    John?

    &Re: Problem with SB240 USB sound card
    Thank you. I did a complete uninstall, including the device itself (from Device Manager) as well as all drivers and any SB related software. As recommended by Creative, I had previously installed the driver software from the supplied CD and that seems to have been the problem.
    I let Windows re-detect the SB, but? got a "problem ... device may not work correctly.." during the detection, so I was not hopeful (this had not happened the first time I installed the device).
    Nevertheless it now does work fully and is properly configured in "Total Recorder" too.
    So I would suggest not using the supplied drivers and software - at least not in WinXP. But it's not very confidence inspiring.

  • Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver

    I rummaged around in here looking at opengl topics and others associated with the above error, but I'm not seeing what I'm encountering (or I am and I don't recognize it!).....
    I bought CS4 a week or so ago, and installed it on a system running XP32 with service pack 3, 4GB of ram withe the /3GB switch set, nVidia 8600 GT card (which according to the list is supported), and multiple spindles for images, scratch, applications, and so on. I found other topics earlier so I downloaded the most recent drivers for my video card.
    I'm not crashing and burning, but I'm getting some messages...
    I opened an image, and while working on it I wanted to do a transform/warp. I got the message that Photoshop couldn't perform the operation because there wasn't enough memory. It didn't crash but I had to shut down CS4 and restart it to do the warp.
    Most recently I opened a couple images for a panorama, and while doing the merge I got the message that "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled gpu enhancements." It tells me to check for the latest drivers - I've ALREADY got the lastest drivers. Again, no crash, just the warning. It completed the panorama.
    There have been a couple other occurrences of messages of this type, so I'm curious if there's some set of preferences or system settting I need to adjust to optimize things? I've alrady adjusted the nVidia settings because I also run Lightroom and they're having problems too.
    I've read the tech notes for the video and such and didn't find any set of optimizations there so is there a set of adjustments beyond the preferences that needs to be adjusted to improve memory and video performance? And if so, can someone point me to them.

    As I understand it (suspect at best) XP32 can address 4 gig of memory. the /3gb switch lets the applications get at 3 gig of that. If my video card takes the first 256MB, and XP is guaranteed the other 750 of the 1st gig, and in the CS4 performance preferences I should be giving it from 1462 - 1895 MB (I've given it around 1890), that leaves me with another gig or so... Is that limited to applications or can XP use it? In any case, I'm not crashing, I just get the message every so often about being out of memory. I don't recall ever seeing this with CS3, but new version, new oddities...

    GPU enhancements can be enable in the Performance panel of Preferences."
    Then windows shuts the program down.  The details of the problem are:
    "Files that help describe the problem:

    I'm on a custom Asus
    I'm using Win7 Home Premium 64-bit
    16GB RAM
    Nvidia Geforce GTX 560 2GB video card
    Intel i7 core 2.2 GHz
    12 GB of memory
    The error happens so quickly that I don't have time to do anything.  Please help.  >.<  I've been on hold for *checks phone* 2 hours exactly.  Wow.  It is a legit copy and was working last month with no trouble.  I've updated the drivers and tried a few solutions that have worked for other people that I found on Google (such as disabling CUDA and setting my "power management mode" to "prefer maximum performance" on my video card) but so far nothing has worked.
    Thanks in advance!

    It has stopped crashing because somehow it turned off "Enable GL Drawing" on its own because I could never even get a menu open.  Not sure how it did that but I am grateful.  I still get the error when I open Photoshop up but at least it hasn't crashed yet.  At the time when it was crashing I never would have been able to get you the system info due to the speed that it was crashing upon just opening the program.  In case you still need it:

  • Problem with the Display Driver

    Hi.
    I just got this message when I started Adobe Photoshop today, that's the CS4 edition, about that there was a problem with the Display driver: "Photoshop have encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the Performance panel of Preferences"
    My problem is not what to do but how to do it. I went to System profiler and found something "ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro, and: Chipset Model: ATI,RadeonHD2600".
    And so I want to ATI's website but can't find what I'm looking for.
    Any help?

    "After Effects" works for some minutes and then it stucks and give the massege above
    "Display driver NVIDIA Windows kernel Mode Driveer, Version 334.89 stopped, responding and has succesfully recovered."
    and preimer works and suddenly the computer crashes not before giving the massege :
    "The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver due to exceeding the Windows Time-Out limit and is unable to continue.
    The aaplication must close.  error code: 7"
    I have new computer :
    proccesor   :Intel Core i7-4700MQ Haswell 2.4GHz

  • I am getting an error encountered problem with the display driver for my Photoshop CS5 extended

    I have Windows 7 and have used CS5 extended with no problems for quite a while now.
    Last week I started up CS5 and received the error:
    "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturers website for the latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the Performance panel of Preferences."
    "Please close program and uninstall and re-install if problem persists"
    I was able to edit, however when I went to save my work it would not do so. The following error came up.
    "Could not complete the command because the extension could not be loaded"
    "Could not save a copy as .....because of a program error"
    I checked to make sure I have the latest driver, I also uninstalled and re-installed the program and I am still getting the errors.
    Can anyone help with this?

  • Beginner Has Problem With Loading JDBC Driver Using MySQL

    Hi, I am having problem with loading JDBC driver, and need your diagnotic help.
    1. I have installed MySQL (C:\mysql), created a databse (soup), and created a littel table (VIDEOS). I am able to see the table in the console:
    sql> select * from videos
    2. I have downloaded the latest version of Connector/J (mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha.zip), and unzip the zip file into my C:\ directory.
    3. I copied the mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha-bin.jar to the C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\jre\lib\ext folder and it is in my CLASSPATH
    4. MySQL server is running
    C:\> C:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --standalone
    5. open another DOS window and use the database
    mysql>USE SOUP
    6. succesfully compiled a Java program (javac Test.java):
    import java.sql.* ;
    public class Test
    public static void main( String[] args )
    try
    Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
    try
    Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/soup" );
    try
    Statement statement = con.createStatement();
    ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery("SELECT TITLE FROM VIDEOS");
    while ( rs.next() )
    System.out.println( rs.getString( "TITLE" ) );
    rs.close();
    statement.close();
    catch ( SQLException e )
    System.out.println( "JDBC error: " + e );
    finally
    con.close();
    catch( SQLException e )
    System.out.println( "could not get JDBC connection: " + e );
    catch( Exception e )
    System.out.println( "could not load JDBC driver: " + e );
    7. when I run the Java program (java Test), I got
    the message:
    could not load JDBC driver: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver
    What am I missing?

    Hi,
    I missed to specify test in my last post.
    Try running your program by explicitly setting the classspath when
    running your program . java -classpath c:\mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha-bin.jar test
    Make sure your jar file contains org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver class

  • Apple new macbook pro dosent have a disk drive. Does the older model have a problem with the disc drive and so is removed in the new model?

    apple new macbook pro dosent have a disk drive. Does the older model have a problem with the disc drive and so is removed in the new model?

    No. Apple replaced the disk drive with a solid state drive (SSD) instead. The SSD is faster the old disk drive.

  • Problem with GX630 optical drive

    Note: I have owned the GX630 for about 4-5 weeks give or take
    Overall I really like the GX630 I purchased. It has ran and performed exceptionally well. With that said, I have a slight problem with the optical drive of my 630. I have noticed this problem since day 1, when I reformatted the default Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 RC 64bit. (note: I do want to go back to my 32bit XP, was just trying out Win7)
    Anyway, on to the problem. Basically it seems like the drive has a problem reading dvds/cds that I put in. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. When I reformatted from Vista to the Win7 RC, right at the beginning where the screen is black and there is a gray bar while Windows is "setting up/copying files" it stopped midway. I came back like an hour later and to no avail it was stuck there. I did a hard reboot and tried again. Worked flawlessly - was able to reformat just fine. It makes trying to install some of my games a hassle. I hardly can as a matter of fact. I'll get like 50% through a game installation and it just "freezes" up - I look at the drive and the light stops and everything, as if it just shuts down. Like I said though sometimes it works! I was able to get through my Pirates! installation no problem! (only cd-based game I was able to install however - I mostly use steam)
    Also, I don't know if this is how the drive is meant to be, but it seems unusually hard to get the thing to close/stay in the computer. When I pop the tray out and try to close it I either have to slam it in or find some miracle way of getting it in because most of the time, just pushing it in with normal force as any other person would do, it will just quickly pop right back out - doesn't stay. I am mainly wondering if I just need to replace the drive? If so how do I go about doing that - or rather, which drives are compatible for installation with the gx630? (I would like to do it myself)
    I hope this explains enough for someone to understand my problem or give me some insight. If not tell me anything more you would like to know.
    Thanks!

    I have had this in Xp, Vista, and Win 7 RC
    In most cases a PROJRAM screwed with the LowerFilters or UpperFilters regestry seettings.
    My latest was changed by installing DVDFAB
    How do I know?  Because Lowerfilters changed from =     to = DVDFAB
    Delete that data and reboot. Should be ok then
    Last month on vacation I could read a CD and DVD but inserting any blank media the drive would stop working.
    Nothing resolved that but uninstalling every single burning and video editing application I had installed.

  • Mac Pro Early 2008 problems with firewire 400 drives

    I am having some sporadic problems with firewire 400 drives and am trying to figure out my best options going forward. System 10.5.2 has hung on me twice in the first week of use, and each time I noticed from console there were some problems accessing one or more of these drives (even though I wasn't doing any reads/writes to/from them). Just before one of the crashes, Disk Utility also had problems "seeing" these drives. My external firewire drives are:
    Maxtor OneTouch III 750GB
    Acomdata enclosure/Seagate 400GB
    LaCie d2/160GB
    LaCie w/Lightscribe DVD
    I have this "cobbled" arrangement because I just upgraded from an eMac and needed these drives to manage video files, audio files, photos, etc. While I'd love to go out and buy new internals to install in my spare bays, and migrate the data to them, I will have to do that in stages as my budget is tapped out at the moment. My MacPro is the base version of the early 2008 units, with 300GB internal.
    In the interim, is it worth troubleshooting firmware updates for these externals, or am I destined to continue to have firewire problems? Is there a straight-forward/inexpensive way to remove these drives from enclosures/install in drive bays with an adaptor? I believe the external hard drives are all ATA type drives.
    Thanks in advance for any counsel.

    I would assume that the Maxtor may be SATA. Does it have an eSATA port? Also, there were a lot of threads (in OS X Leopard forum) about those OneTouch units. Same can be said for LaCie problems.
    Yes, check for firmware and configuration. In some cases, and what I do with any new OS, is to reformat all drives - gradually. Given the age of the eMac I'd guess firmware is out of date, and that the drives are formatted some time ago. While you don't have to use GUID, it is a good idea eventually, or just reformat a drive.
    Don't forget to test your drives with Disk Warrior (4.1) also.
    750GB WD Caviar is $139 SATA.

    Are you using daisy chains? you have one FW bus shared by front and back ports. Do you have any on FW800 or using FW400 to FW800 adapter cable? PCI Express FW400 card might even help a little.
