24" iMac AlSiO does not boot with iPod video on USB dock

Hello all,
I have already reported this as an issue with Apple.
I noticed that when I turn on my new iMac with the video iPod on the dock connected via USB, I only see the gray screen and the OS does not start. However, once I remove the iPod from the dock, then the Apple logo will show up, and the circular moving tiny line counters will ensue before the login screen appears.
Just wondering if anyone else is running into this problem.

Thanks for the suggestions den.thed and elmac.
I have done the following:
- Selected the Mac OS X on the MacHD as the startup disk and locked that from further changes. Restarting the iMac did not work.
- Verified and repaired permissions. Restarted the iMac and it did not work either.
In addition, I also tried:
- Restoring the video iPod and leaving it without contents. Rebooting the iMac worked.
- Syncing iTunes with the iPod after the restore. The rebooting problem appears again.
It seems like some synced items on the iPod are causing the issue as odd as that sounds.
I did not have this problem with my G5 iMac.
Since there is a workaround, I'll just live with that for now.
Thanks again.

  • PC does not boot with Ipod Nano

    My configuration:
    Shuttle SK83G, Athlon64 3000, Windows XP Pro, Logitech DiNovo wireless desktop.
    My problem:
    If my Ipod Nano is connected the PC will not boot. The bios screen shows up and then nothing happens. I even can not access the bios. If I remove the ipod the PC will eventually start windows. But in absolute slow motion (I can see how the Windows startup screen fades in step by step).
    If I connect my Nano after booting, everything is perfectly fine. Also with my Ipod Mini connected, the PC boots up without a problem.

    it's not just a Nano problem, but a USB port problem
    That's correct. USB is famous for this. Something in the BIOS (probably) is telling it to try and boot from the nano, but of course it can't find a valid OS there. And the solution is just what you suggested. Don't boot with the nano connected.

  • Itunes playlist does not match with ipod playlist.

    when I copy all my songs from itunes library to ipod playlist always a couple songs are missing. I have 5.000 songs in library but only 4700 on ipod.
    please help. thank you

    I'm not certain I understand the problem: have you re-installed iTunes 6 and now are unable to purchase iTunes Store music?
    I have an iPod Mini and have used it flawlessly with iTunes 7 on both a G5 iMac and a G4 Cube under 10.4.7, so "incompatibility" is not the issue here.
    iTunes 6.0.5 indeed does continue to allow iTunes Store music purchases...if your problem persists, get back to us here with more info!

    Thanks for the reply.  I tried playing with detaching the audio in iMovie, but with 20+ hours of video to correct, it would take too long.  After 28 hours, Corel/Roxio tech support replied that it is a known bitrate mismatch problem and they have no real fix.  I strongly suggest not to buy this product.

  • K9AGM3-F does not boot with PCIe 4x device in PCIe 16x slot

    K9AGM3-F motherboard does not boot with PCIe 4x Intel PRO/1000 PT dual port network interface card installed into PCIe 16x slot on motherboard. The boot process stops in BIOS screens. The motherboard works flawlessly without this NIC. K9VGM-V + Intel PRO/1000 PT boot successfully. I tried three K9AGM3-F motherboards and two Intel PRO/1000 PT NICs in different combinations, the results are always the same. It appears to be some kind of BIOS problem.

    Minor point, probably irrelevant: I said you install the driver f i r s t. Then you put the physical card in. 
    The driver is completely irrelevant because the driver is a part of operating system, but as I already wrote before the boot process stops long before the OS start.
    Quote from: Fredrik Åsenius on 09-April-08, 22:52:27
    No stability issues otherwise?
    PSU is always good to know.
    The PSU is irrelevant too because the same NICs work in the PCIe 1x slot of the same motherboard with the same PSU.

  • T60 does not boot with Intel T7600G CPU

    I replaced my Intel Core Duo T2400 with Intel Core 2 Duo T7600G CPU in ThinkPad T60(1951-CTO) laptop. However, laptop does not boot with Intel Core 2 Duo T7600G CPU. It doesn't even complete the POST: https://db.tt/8UL8FlE0 As seen in the video, I plugged in the power adapter at 0:02 and pressed the power button at 0:06. One can hear a little click made by optical device. If I press the power button again at 0:16, this click does not happen. BIOS version is 2.27. I have reset the BIOS settings by disconnecting the CMOS battery, but this didn't help. Once I replace the T7600G with my old T2400 then I'm able to boot the laptop.
    Any ideas what might cause such behavior? Shouldn't there be beep codes in case of CPU issues? What else to try?

    I don't claim to be the top authority on T60 motherboards, but I believe any will use a Core 2 T7600, 7400, 7200 if the firmware is updated.
    My own experience mirrors what TuuS has stated. I have yet to see a T60/p from any walk of life with a recent BIOS that will bark at a proper Core 2 Duo CPU.

  • 2960X-48FPS-L does not boot with IOS 15.2-2E

    Hello,
    i got a bunch of 2960X switches. But some of them do not boot with the new IOS Version. The older 15.0-2 EX do boot.
    Does anybody have a clue why this happens? During the Bootprocess it just stops to load:
    File "flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E.bin" uncompressed and installed, entry poin0x3000
    executing...
    Loading "flash:/c2960x-universalk9-m
    Thank you for your help.

    On the ones that cannot boot 15.2(2)E, can you break the boot cycle using the "Mode" button?
    If the answer is "yes", then try the following: 
    1.  Copy the IOS BIN file from a working switch to a USB flash drive; 
    2.  In ROMmon, force the switch to boot the IOS from your USB flash drive; 
    3.  If it does not work, try a different IOS, like the EX3 for instance.  Try the same process, boot the BIN from your USB flash drive. 
    4.  If it works, try a different IOS, like EX3, for instance.  Downgrade the IOS from 15.2(2)E to EX3 and see if the switch can boot normally. 
    This exercise will determine where the fault is coming from:  IOS bug or a hardware batch problem.  
    To determine if you'e got a hardware batch problem, you may need to look at the serial number of the switches working and not working.  From left to right, look at the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th numerals.  This will determine the year and month your appliances were made. 

  • Why when I play a video on my HP G2-34OUs Notebook the sound does not go with the video?

    When I play a video from a CD, the sound does not go with the pictures/film.  Sometimes the video just stops and will not move forward.  This happens on a number of players that I have enstalled.

    Hi henryjd,
    Sorry to hear about the videos issues, I know that can be frustrating. I will be happy to help. It sounds like you are having an issue with either your video and/or audio drivers. What version of operating system are you running?

  • IMac will not boot with iPod connected

    Hello everyone
    I have a new iMac Core 2 Duo 17 inch 2.0 ghz and it seems to have a problem starting up when a 5th generation iPod is connected to the computer. When the computer is turned on with the iPod connected, the blank grey screen comes on, yet the apple logo or the spinning startup wheel does not appear. However, if the iPod is unplugged, it will startup as usual. Otherwise, there are no other problems with the computer or iPod.
    I have attempted the following to resolve the issue, yet none of the aforementioned troubleshooting ideas have worked
    - Reset the PRAM and the SMU
    - Run Apple Hardware Test with no probems
    - Reinstalled Mac OS Tiger and applications
    - Reset the iPod and reimported songs onto iPod
    - Enabled and disabled hard disk mode for iPod
    I know that I can simply let the iPod be disconnected at startup; however, I feel like this should not have to be done with a new Apple product. Please let me know any other advice or if anyone has experienced the same issue.
    Thanks!
    Dave
    iMac Core 2 Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Have you reset your Startup Disk preference? If not, do so to see if that resolves your issue. It sounds as if your iMac is looking to try and boot from the iPod's disk.

    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.

  • P67A-GD65 does not boot with LSI 9240-8i HBA

    Hi All,
    When I installed my LSI 9240-8i I was able to boot to the ICH10 Raid as long as the Marvell Raid controller was disabled.  Once I updated the LSI card to the latest version of the firmware I cant boot at all.  I've cleared the CMOS, I've disabled everything in the BIOS (raid controllers, 1394, NIC, etc).  All not no avail. 
    Thus Far I've tried:
    -Booting to OS on the ICH10 RAID gets me into Windows 7 (x64): Resulted in the LSI controller showing, "This device could not start. (Code 10)" under Device Manager.
    -Updating Firmware: Resulted in the mobo hanging on POST at code "92".
    -Upating BIOS from 1.B to 1.C5 Beta: Resulted in mobo hanging on POST at code "92".
    -When I move the card to my Dell Prescision workstation, the LSI RAID controller works like a charm!
    Observations:
    MSI P67A-GD65 BIOS v. 1.B
    -LSI Firmware
    20.10.1-0037 (APP-2.120.54-1235)   15-APR-11   - BROKEN
    20.10.1-0029 (APP-2.120.24-1181)   - 04-MAR-11 - BROKEN

    Thanks!

    Looks to me that it is the LSI firmware issue as the card works fine until you updated its firmware.
    Do card with the card's vendor.
    Hi NovJoe,
    Thats just it.  It looks like its an MSI BIOS compatability issue all along.  Before I upgrade the firmware, the card works in my Dell Precision Workstation, but does not work on the MSI mobo; shows Device could not start (Code 10) error.  After I upgrade the Firmware, the MSI mobo will not POST, but the Dell still boots up with the card perfectly.
    Its definitely NOT the card.  If both the 9240 and 9260 cards work perfectly in other computers then there is something wrong with the MSI mobo or BIOS.
    Please help. 
    Thanks!

  • Securing old 10.4 xserve with hot spare - new xserve does not boot with 10.

    dear you,
    I am in the murky situation of having to secure a single, non redundant productive scenario which is running on one xserve (model identifier 1,1; dual core 3GHz; boot-rom XS11.0080.B00). due to several reasons the server needs to be cloned, so that a separate xserve with a daily cloned boot-device can take over if things go south with the productive one.
    unfortunately the newly bought xserve quadcore single 2.26GHz refuses to boot from the image taken from the production machine. tried to downgrade firmware, did not help. new machine crashes during startup (empty grey screen).
    anybody knows any help? moving the production machine to 10.5 or newer is NO option.
    an option could be two elder xserves I have here additionally. how do I find out which xserve model will boot with an image from the production server?
    thank you all for any idea in advance,
    thaijay
    Message was edited by: thaijay
    Sorry, failed to let you know the productive server is running 10.4.11. please let me know which other details I can post/will help us with this issue

    This is never going to work via cloning.
    The server you're cloning has to be one of the original Intel-based XServes. Each successive revision adds requirements to the OS to the point where they have a minimum OS version. In the case of the latest generation servers, they won't run on anything earlier than 10.5.6 (IIRC). To put it simply - 10.4 doesn't know how to drive the latest generation hardware.
    In any case, cloning is rarely a good idea for servers anyway. You would do better to look at the services you're running and look at backup/failover plans for them rather than trying to clone the entire server. Many services such as Open Directory, DNS, MySQL and more have built-in replication systems that are designed to replicate their data across many machines. Other client-facing services such as AFP, web, FTP, etc. can be set to failover (where the second machine takes over the service when the primary machine fails).
    Such replication/failover techniques are far more reliable than a daily clone, and they're also faster. Replicated data could be maintained up to the minute, compared to a day old data if you need to boot up the clone.
    If you really, really want to go the clone route, then reverse the roles - setup the new machine as the primary server with all the services and clone this machine to create your failover system. 10.5.6 will run the old/original XServe, it's just a matter of updating your services to the newer version.

  • P35 Neo ram problems. Does not boot with 4 sticks

    Greetings!
    This thread is little related to: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=110095.0
    Okey so I bought this rig last friday(will post specs later). 4x 1gb ram sticks, shows up as 3.3gb. Was gona install 64-bit Vista today, but got some problems.
    I left my computer on during night just to check if it runs fine. I wake up around 6am, turn power on to my monitor. Screensaver, move mouse, desktop and BOOM: Bluescreen(something about memory). Ok so I shutdown my comp, try to reboot got no signal. Removed 2 ram sticks(A2,B2) and yey it works. I plug them back in and again nothing. I test them 1 by 1 on both of the free slots, no problems detected.
    Why won't my P35 Neo boot with 4 gigs of ram? And why did it work for 2days? :P
    My guess is that the bios is still not ready yet(using 1.2v).

    If I understand correctly, you are saying that you can install Vista and XP to the system but not able to boot into the OS'es when you have 4GB of RAMs installed?
    I would recommend you to test the RAMs with Memtest86.
    Yes, I could install Vista and XP just fine. Also at first I could boot them with 4gigs just fine. Now my system won't POST with 4 gigs.
    I've tested each one of the ram sticks and they are error free.

  • HPE-510t does not boot with AMD FirePro W5000 (Windows 8.1)

    My machine will not start with the new card inserted. I upgraded the stock 300 W power supply to a 450 W Antec VP450F, but that didn't change  the startup situation. I tried DisplayPort and Dual-Link DVI-D.

    Hi Mike,
    I am glad that you finally have success.  The issue is probably that the PC BIOS level is too low.
    The passmark numbers look very good.
    BTW -- I had the ASUS P8P67 motherboard and donated it another forum member. It wouldn't support an EVGA UEFI BIOS based graphics card. I ended up replacing the ASUS P8P67 with the ASUS Z87.

  • One USB port does not work with external Disk or USB key

    Hello,
    Back to my iMAC there is 3 USB port. The second one - in the middle - does not work pluging an external Disk, an USB key or an iPOD nano. However it works well connecting a Wacom tablet.
    Is there an explanation to this behaviour ?
    More the keyboard is plugded on USB port 1 and the mouse on the keyboard. Time to time - especially at reboot - I have to unplugged the mouse and plugged again it in order it works.
    In advance thank you for your answers
    Regards

    Since it does not work for three different devices, I will assume it is not something simple like a faulty USB cable. Since it does work for one device, I will also assume that the port is (at least partially) working.
    As a test to narrow down the cause, I would try restarting from your Mac OS X installation disc (insert disc and restart with the C key held down).
    At the first Installer screen (after language selection), go up the menu bar. Under Utilities, select to run Disk Utility. Now, connect the USB drive into that center port. Does it appear in the Disk Utility sidebar?
    Please post back the result...
