Tecra 8200 doesn't recognize RAM in Slot B

Since a few days my Tecra doesn't recognize the RAM Module in Slot B. Before all was fine. I have 2x256MB Modules. I was wondering why my Tecra becomes more slow the last days and then i saw that i have now just 256MB RAM. I change the Modules from Slot A to B. I checked also both RAM moduls with MEMCheck. Both are ok! Just when i put one RAM to Slot B and none to Slot A my Tecra doesn't boot up! If i insert both moduls my Tecra boots up but just with 256MB RAM.
Is there an other solution then to buy a new Notebook? Is my Mainbord demaged?
I was so contently with my Tecra until now ;-)

Hi
Like Joao said, probably the memory slot B is defective and therefore the memory module cannot be recognized.
The notebook supports max 512MB (2x256MB) but I dont know if the single 512MB module can be used in one slot.
I presume its not possible.

Mac mini doesn't recognize RAM

I recently upgraded my mac mini (1.83 Ghz proccessor) to 2 GB of ram (1 GB to each place).
Unfortunately, it doesn't recognize the one of the two slots. The ram was purchased from a local iStore.

Recheck the RAM spec's, Mac's are picky and many times that will happen with multiple speed or the incorrect RAM. Additionally if the RAM is the correct spec, then you may either one that is not fully seated in the slot or one module that is bad.

Tecra S3 - problems with new ram in slot B

Hello,
I have a new 2 GB ram. When I put it in Slot A (Slot B is empty) it works perfect. When I put my old ram (1GB) in Slot B now and try to powerup, I hear Beeps: 1x long, and 4x short. The Screen stays black. Do you know what this is?
Thanks for your help!!

Hi
The beeps mean that the POST (power on self test) could not be passed properly.
Either your B slot malfunctions or the notebook needs 2 memory modules installed in two slots in order to use the also the second memory slot.
But my assumption is that your second slot might be faulty.

Tecra M4 - Doesn't recognize my printer anymore

I recently started to experience problems recognizing my Canon IP4500 printer.
Reinstalling printer driver worked once, not anymore. When I checked Device Manger I could not see any lpt ports, only a number of "Toshiba BT Ports".
Could this maybe indicate a hardware problem?
Chris

Hi!
I have checked the specifications of the Canon Pixma IP4500 and it does only have an USB port so I think you dont need any LPT ports in device manager. I think you can forget this.
In your case I would try to reinstall the printer again. Remove the old printer software/driver, restart the notebook. Then use CCleaner to clean the system and restart again. Now download the newest drivers on the Canon website. Follow the screen instructions!! Few days ago I installed a Canon printer too and you should only connect the printer if the drivers are installed. So connect the printer if the installation says you should connect it to the computer!
Good luck!
Bye

Windows Vista doesn't recognize Mac Pro RAM

I have installed Windows Vista Business on my Mac Pro using Boot Camp, and have found some anomalies that seem strange. It is basically working well (for Windows....).
1. I installed this on a 500Gb HD on my Mac Pro. This machine is a fully configured box doing video editing, with extensive AV files. It has all four drive bays filled, 3 of them with 1Tb drives, the thrid with a single 500Gb drive. I was a bit surprised to find that Boot Camp won't allow partitioning of its OSX installed boot HD beyond a Mac Partition and the Boot Camp paritition, or a secondary entire HD dedicated to Windows. This is not very practical with these large drives, since even though HD storage is fairly cheap, I don't want to give Microsoft more than maybe 100gb on a drive. All of the other HDs are partitioned for multiple parititions, which I need to preserve. The OSX boot drive has 3 OSX partitions already installed. Any ideas on how to do this better? Yes, I know I can use Parallels or VMWare, and do, but find that native Boot Camp Windows is better.
2. Windows Vista is running on a dedicated HD in Boot Camp on this machine (to all appearances running fine), but doesn't recognize more than 2Gb of RAM on my machine which is configured with 10Gb of RAM which is recognized appropriately in OSX. What am I missing?
I would appreciate any help on a partitioning scheme that works to support multiple partitions on these large drives, and a reason that only 2Gb out of 10Gb of RAM is recognized by Windows Vista Business in Boot Camp.
Thanks!!!

Thanks for your response.
I am running in Boot Camp, which runs in native mode without emulation. The advantage is that if you are going to run Windows, which is my goal, it doesn't have the overhead of OSX. Indeed, most Mac machines are among the fastest Windows machines available for equivalent hardware when running Windows in native mode. There are a few more arcane advantages to running natively, particularly in terms of connecting to external devices. There is no background RAM overhead when run natively.
Thanks....

Pcmcia usb controller doesn't work with Tecra 8200

Hi,
I have an old TECRA 8200 notebook (Intel Pentium III, 847 MHz, 512 MB RAM) OS: WIN XP with latest patches. For it has no USB 2.0 I have bought a PCMCIA USB Controller (Chip NEC). The controller has been recognised but XP is asking for a driver. The controller hasn't been delivered with a driver.
Does any one has an idea how I could get the controller up and running.
thanks
regards
Fred

I mean, independet from the fact that this is not really a toshiba related problem, could you please post the name of the USB PCMCIA device?
I mean the manufacturer or something because if XP asks for a driver then there should be one available, or?
Please, give a feedback and what you could do additionally is to google for the PCMCIA device. The best way is often to search for the chip (in your case NEC).
Regards

Tecra M4 - DVD drive doesn't recognize any disk under Vista

Hi,
after the installation of Vista my dvd drive doesn't recognize any disks !
No upgrade from XP! It was a clean Vista installation.
I found several links about the registry entries upper and lower filter this entries doesn't exist in my registry under the class CDROM.
I tested the drive under XP it works fine and recognizes everything.
Drivers are correctly installed no problems in the device manager is prompted.
So i have no idea how to get it working, seems to be a Vista problem
Could any one help me ? I'm really frustrated about this
Thanks for your help

Maybe this helps:
- Remove the CD/DVD drive from the device manager.
- Then access the registry and remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
- Then reboot the notebook
But what happens exactly? What disks are not recognized?

Mac pro 2006 won't recognize ram

Hey Everyone.....I'm not a giant techie, but now my way around a computer more than most I guess...here's my question...
I have a Mac Pro 2006 running 2ghz dual core xeon processors and with 2gbs Ram (2GB x 4).....I just finally upgraded my ram and purchased 8gb's (4GB x 2)!
I installed the new ram in Riser A in slots 1 & 2, and moved the old ram all to Riser B in slots 1-4 but I think I screwed something up. I booted up my machine and it recognizes the 8gb modules (whew!) but doesn't recognize the old 2gb's. I don't know what configuration I should use.
Should I have Riser A full with slots 1-4 occupied by my new 8gb's and a pair of the 512's, putting 9gb's on Riser A?? Then I would put the second 512's on Riser B?? 9 on Riser A and 1 on B??
8GB Ram is making such a great performance upgrade, but 10GB's of Ram would be pretty sweet too!! :)
Thanks for any and all help.

Assuming that the new RAM is for Mac Pro and "look the same"
Sometimes two brands or different sets from the same make don't get along.
Where you installed is fine.
I didn't understand what it was, and what it is now.
You have:
4 x 512MB for 2GB
4 x 2GB
2 x 4GB
Ideal would be
Riser A: 2 x 4GB
Riser B: 2 x 2GB
See if that works first.
Run Apple Hardware Test
The math and figures you posted don't add up for me.

I can't connect my camera to my Mac tower - final cut doesn't recognize the connection.

I have a Canon AH X1 video camera which uses the older 6 pin firewire - I have a 6 pin to 9 pin adapter, but when I connect the camera and go to Capture and Log, it doesn't recognize the camera is connected. Even when I click NOW, it does nothing. My camera output settings have been set by the manual for this type of connection, HD and downgrade OFF, or something like that (don't have the camera in front of me this moment). Any ideas?
Thank you!

Thanks for the quick response! I have a smokin' Mac Tower - 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core, 10GB RAM, Mac OS 10.6.7.
I am running 6 pin firewire using a 9 pin adapter. I have one internal hard drive - 999GB, formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) - 914G are free.
Camera Settings - Playback STD - Comp out 1080i/480i
HD Down Conversion - OFF
When I start up Final Cut Pro, it says
External A/V Unable to locate the following external devices:
Apple FireWire NTSC (720 x 480)
Your system configuration may have changed, or your deck/camera may be disconnected or turned off.
Please check your connections and click "Check Again" , or click "Continue" to set external device detection to None.
Then, when I go to Log and Capture, I get:
Unable to initialize video deck. You may still log offline clips or use Capture Now.
Beneath that, "Initializing Device Control..." stays up and frozen.
THEN, if I click OK and Capture NOW, I get a quick flash of a screen that disappears, and nothing happens.
Thanks in advance...

HP Laptop doesn't recognize Hard Drive

Hi,
I have a HP 620 (Pentium D 2,3GHz 1GB Ram) and it doesn't recognize the Hard Drive. The battery doesn't seem to work too.
If i try to install Windows, it says that there are no hard drives found. The diagnostic test in the BIOS says the same.
The DVD player is also lousy as **bleep**.
Do you guys have some tips about cause of this problem.
System information screenshot below
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Have you entered the UEFI PC Diagnostics to see if the component tests show the hard disk?
Had you considered removing the original hard disk, then reseating it and trying again to see if it is recognized as beong installed?
You can also put another hard disk in its place to see if it is recognized.

Macbook pro doesn't recognize camera on image capture

My MacBook Pro doesn't recognize the built-in camera for a lot of my applications, including Image Capture. It doesn't show up anywhere in my system preferences. Any idea why this is so?

(1) Mac's built-in camera does not work with Image Capture.
Image Capture works with external devices like scanners, some iOS devices, some cameras and RAM cards, etc. Click this link for more info about Image capture and some of the apps that can work with your inbuilt camera.
Click here for info about how to use Image Capture to transfer images from a connected external camera.
For more info about Image Capture functions, see Image Capture > Help on your Mac or the Apple pages in this link.
(2) To test for application-specific problems mentioned in the "How to Troubleshoot iSight " article, use apps like Photo Booth, QuickTime Player, iChat, FaceTime, or others intended to work with your Mac's inbuilt camera.
(3) To test for user-specific problems mentioned in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 the "How to Troubleshoot iSight " article, you must have more than one user account. Do NOT use the "Guest" account. Click this link if you need help creating new accounts for testing.

Have old files on new computer; doesn't recognize iPod

Hi all,
Last month a PC that had been solid for five years gave up the will to live (may it rest in peace). Through the grace of all that is good in the universe, I had a backup of all my files. My iPod (30GB iPod photo) is in great shape (as it apparently saw no need to follow the suicidal activities of the PC - another blessing).
So now I have a new PC which seems to be quite the nice machine, and on it I have installed iTunes. I tried hooking up the iPod, but the USB connection didn't seem to recognize it. I have the new software (7.0.2.16), a good iPod, and a happy computer with the hopefully temporary character flaw that it doesn't recognize the iPod.
1) What is the best way to get the computer to recognize the iPod?
2) Should I just add the several thousand songs I have in the folders now on the new drive on the new computer to the new software, or should I try to do this backwards from the iPod?
3) I also haven't authorized the new machine yet. Following a computer that's gone on to tech-heaven, is there a preferred way to do this? (and...)
4) Is the order of these activities important?
I did search the archives to try to find the advice before, and found plenty that were similar but not quite the same. I probably went right by what I needed. Big thanks and a humble bow to anyone willing to take time to answer this.

1. Your library with all you music on it is on your old laptop's hard drive. Remove the drive, put it in an external USB enclosure and import your music to the new computer.
2. Try this to get your computer to recognize the iPod.
