Audio Card cannot be found

Audio Card cannot be foundi I just realized that I have lost all audio. I could use some help trouble shooting the issue. I have a Dell Dimension 900 w/ a Creative SB Audigy 2 ZS audio card. I run Vista Home Premium w/ SP2. There have been no recent hardware or software additions (or removal) . I run "Creative Diagnostics" and receive a message that the audio card cannot be found on the system. Device Manager indicates the device is working properly. Media Player displays and displays visualization. Volume Mixer displays sound. I have reset the audio card on the mother board I have reset the speaker connections. I have checked speaker with a second source I have checked and set speaker volume. Power to speakers is on. Speakers are not in "mute" mode. I have verified that I am using the most current driver for the audio card (no change from exisiting driver).

I uninstalled the device through device manager and then reiinstalled the driver - same symptoms.

Built-in audio cannot be found?

Hi All,
I just bought a MacBook Pro and installed FCE, which I had stopped using for a while because my old iMac G5 was so slow. When I start FCP it gives me an error message that the built-in audio device cannot be found. I opened an old project and it seems the sound plays OK, but still that message is annoying and a bit worrying... any idea?
Thanks
Florence
Edited to changed FCP to FCE, sorry for the confusion.

You should ask your question on the Final Cut pro forum.

I am looking for a good app that can help a college student with reading books that cannot be found on audio book. I have tried voice over and it works but it's very monotone and it really strings things together.
- I'm willing to pay for a good app but I can't seem to sort though the many that are out there. Any suggestions.

Ah. I'm surprised, but there we go.

Didn't have time to do more than skim, but 'Ardour' looked promising. Protools is the only one I've used, the full product is one of the industry standards, but the free 'lite' version listed here seems to be limited to 2 in/out as well.
Referring to your original post, I'd think trying to write or 'script' something would be a nightmare ... synchronisation of streams within something like Applescript would be a major issue, quite apart from anything else.

IPhoto says 'Files Cannot Be Found' when trying to import from SD Card

Hello all,
I have this stupid little problem with my iPhoto.
Every time I plug my SD card to import pictures I took from trips or whatnot to iPhoto, it says 'Files Cannot Be Found' but when all said and done, the files are actually there. I don't know what the problem is, but it's very annoying and I don't know how to fix it.
I highly doubt it's my camera setting and want to know if there's anything I can do within iPhoto to change that stupid little error message I get every time I try to import my photos.
For example, when I try to import like 40 pictures, at least 7-8 would alert me saying 'File Cannot Be Found'. I hit okay button and goes to next file... I have no idea what it is and it really kills me. Can anyone help?

This can occasionally happen, if iTunes cannot find your iTunes library. Do you keep your iTunes library on an external drive? Then check, if this drive is properly mounted. Does it appear on your desktop?
Sometimes simply rebooting will resolve problems with a drive that is not accessible. Also, check the settings for the location of your iTunes Media folder in the iTunes Preferences > Advanced panel:

Cannot import audio CD, but can play! error: required disk cannot be found

cannot import audio CD, but can play! When I try to import it appears an error: required disk cannot be found!
Does someone knows a solution?

There is no such thing as a "parser plug-in".
That's not entirely accurate. In CS4 we use "EPS Parser.8BY" to assist in parsing of illustrator files. This plugin is normally located at:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS4\Support Files\Plug-ins\Format\EPS Parser.8BY"
Is this missing for some reason?

Why is my external USB audio card not found after Lion install

Above says it all. Since installing Lion my external USB audio card is not recognized. This is a very plain vanilla card. I worked fine with Snow Leopard. No additional drivers required. But with Lion, nada. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It just happened to me. Exactly as Ritcho described. After install fine, after restart, gone. FYI for anyone with the same issue as I had. I was using a Diamond USB dongle to connect my external monitor to the iMac, it was legacy from when I was running a couple of external monitors from my MacBook Pro using them. I took the dongle out of the chain and replaced with a standard Apple DVI to Mini DVI adapter and plugged it into the mini dvi port in the iMac and I was golden. Now to sell the Diamond dongles.

T400 audio card drive needed

My first thinkpad, a T400 with PC dos.

Any idea?
Thank you guys

Here is you r driver link: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-70439#audio
Look at the bottom of the page and bookmark it. There are all the drivers for your system.

While viewing a page I suden get "Oops! This page appears broken. DNS Error - Server cannot be found." However I can back arrow to the page

I just upgrade to versions 18.0.1. I am suing Window 7 64 bit.
Now I while I am viewing a page I suddenly receive the error massage "Oops! This page appears broken. DNS Error - Server cannot be found."
I can use the back arrow key to bring the paper back.
If I have several tabs open, I can watch one tab after another change from the page name, It doesn't seem to matter who page it is, Yahoo, Washington Post, NBCNews,

I am not a techie. I keep 15-20 to tabs open at a time for reference while working. When I upgraded to this version, all my tabs were closed and my history was erased. I still have not recovered from that loss. I do not want to have this repeated!
If I was using pdfforge extension (what ever that is) before the upgrade, why is it venomous now?
Besides this issue, since upgrading I suddenly starting having the audio from commercials being played from tabs that are not active (open). I now have to leave my audio muted.
I expected assistance from Firefox not some unknown individual ( iamjayakumars) who for all I know is a troll trying to get me to do something to expose my computer to attack.
I allowed Firefox to collect data they needed from my computer when I submitted the question.
Fix the bug in your program! I have used Firefox since it came out. I am within a hairs width of switching browser. The only thing holding me with Firefox is my bookmarks. If I figure out how to export them, I am gone.
FIX YOUR BROWSER!!!

IPod cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found - Aggghh!!!!

I have a new iTouch, which is fine, I am just having a very, very bad experience of iTunes., in fact so bad it may go back to apple soon and I shall dust off my old Creative Zen
The Problem:
When I try to sync any music, audio book or photos, the message comes up:
" iPod cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found" and nothing is synced,
It syncs my contacts and calendar from Office Outlook fine, and the alarm works on the appointments.
I think I have tried just about everything, I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, done the whole Restore option in ITunes.. run the Diagnostics and all passes fine. I have searched the form and found another answer mentioning security issues, but mine have not changed. It is not the compatibility of photos or DRM with the music, I have tried a single music file (of my own song) and a single compatible photo.
Googled the darn problem and there seem to be as many differing views on the problem as there are computers out there, from my hard drive being screwed (which it is not) to a registry file missing.. Tried all but…..
Well if anyone can come up with an answer they can expect a very large thank you!!!
Any answers?
Thanks
Stewart

Do you sync photos to your device?

Ver.9.5 The volume for file name cannot be found

HI,
My work Mac Book pro was recently upgraded to Mavericks from 10.6.8, with iPhoto 11 (ver. 9.5) also an included upgrade. One album of photos is no longer accesible - clicking on each thumbnail provokes the following window "The volume for <file name> cannot be found. The "Try again" option doesn't work, and the alternative, which is to use the finder to locate the file is useless, as the files are buried in a library spare bundle. When I copy the file name, and search on the volume with the library via finder, it pulls up tiny thumbnail size files.
I have a primary iphoto library on a dedicated USB external drive, which I back up not everytime I update the library (200 gbs spare bundle over USB2!), but regularly. I fear these recently imported files, have not been backed up before up erasing cards, and upgrading system OS, have gone.
Is there any way of getting into the library via finder, or elsewhere in iphoto to refind the original master files which are in there somewhere? These files opened perfectly in iphoto before the recent upgrade.

Thanks for the fast response. I've followed your directions and can't find the file in there, in Masters, Originals, or Modified folders. I found files in Thumbnails folder though. Some of the files from the same event are fine, so its not consistent. I'm also noticing that another file in the event has a totally blurred preview (Its a 24mbs Jpg from a Nikon D800) - not sure if this is at all connected.
The positive news is that my NeoFinder database of drives indicates I should have the 'missing' files on another computer in the office, but I'm still scratching my head on this.

Error message "The Volume for "IMG_5727.JPG Cannot be found.

Help!
I have been recieving the error:
"The Volume for "IMG_5727.JPG Cannot be found.
Insert the disk or connect to the server volume and
wait for it to appear on the desktop, then try again."
It has been happening for months but I am editing/moving
wedding pictures(900 plus) right now and it is impossible to work around this. They are new images that were just down loaded from the card reader.
I can see the pictures right in the library
Help!
Kathy

You say you are "editing/moving" pictures from a wedding.
Depending on what you mean by that, it could be creating the problem you're having.
Are you physically "moving" your pictures within the finder, or do you just mean dragging and dropping within iPhoto?
Usually, the way iPhoto works is you upload them into iPhoto from a card or some sort of volume.
A new file is created in the iPhoto library.
That file never leaves the library as it is now the actual link to iPhoto.
However, if you physically move that file from the library, you will break the link and have lots of problems.
You can't move files from the iPhoto library.
However, if you're not physically moving photos from the library (manually, via the finder), and if you are uploading into iPhoto, and iPhoto shows you a thumbnail and when you click on it, it gives you that message, then there might be something wrong with the volume iPhoto thinks it's uploading pictures to from your card/source volume.
I would reestablish a new volume to save to and see if it's still having the same problems. Make sure you backup the original library though.

" the volume for (file name) cannot be found. Insert the disk or connect to the server volume and wait for it to appear on the desktop, then try again."

I get an error message in iPhoto when I click on thumbnails of pictures in certain albums. It reads 'the volume for "(file name)" cannot be found. Insert the disk or connect to the server volume and wait for it to appear on the desktop, then try again.' What does this mean and how do I fix it?

It means that you imported the files in Referenced mode and have now remvoed them from the Mac. Put the disk or card back.

Error Message::: The volume for "CIMG0010.JPG" cannot be found.

When I import to iphoto, I get this message:
The volume for “CIMG0010.JPG” cannot be found.
Insert the disk or connect to the server volume and wait for it to appear on the desktop, then try again.
I have to press Cancel each time to resume importing.
Anyone have same problem?
Thx for your help.
Happy Holidays!

I too had this problem but found a very simple solution*. No rebuild needed.
For anyone else who runs into this problem here is what happened to me, and what I did about it (for reference):
I checked to make sure all software was updated, I tried different memory cards, I tried reformatting cards and used a card reader and tried straight from my camera (Canon 40D). I was downloading over 250 photos and after sitting there hitting 'Cancel' on each photo TWICE my photos finally loaded... or so I thought. When I went to open them, only the thumbnails were there! Argh!
Thankfully I didn't delete the memory card, and this time I tried downloading to a new folder on the Desktop and then importing to iPhoto. I got the same error. I tried locating each photo with the 'Find Photo' button and this opened the correct folder and after I scrolled down it had even highlighted the correct file. Unfortunately this did not work.
I tried a photo at the beginning, middle and end of the shoot to see if the memory card was somehow corrupt. Same problem with each. Eventually I did load my photos but again, only after I hit cancel for each one of the 250 photos. Interesting that after I hit 'cancel' it would download the photo.
The 'duplicate image' window came up for the 3 images I had randomly selected earlier, so I didn't think it could have been a naming problem. After all, I have been using the same camera for a while with sequential numbering enabled.
After reading Terence's reply (thank you) I was even more flustered that I would have to rebuild a database that I thought I was careful creating and backing up. Backing up... That was it!
I have over 40 gigs of photos on a USB drive from before I owned my Mac. I choose to use iPhoto to catalog the files but did not want to load them all on to my laptop and clog up useful memory.
It occurred to me that as Terence had suggested iPhoto may be trying to double check the new images against old ones, but the old ones can't be found. Even though the files were on completely different drives.
After simply plugging in my USB drive the photos downloaded to my MacBook immediately. Just to be clear, the photos were not using the same names as old ones nor were they being written to the USB drive; but iPhoto needed to have that USB drive plugged in to download photos to the laptop hard drive.
This is an easy fix, and avoids database rebuilding, but I am worried about when I go traveling etc. and need to download photos without my USB drive handy...

"Your Time Machine back up disk cannot be found." What does this mean?

I have an external hard drive that has never been disconnected from my iMac.
About 3 weeks ago, I started noticing that some of my iTunes library songs had "!" in front of them, and I wasn't able to find them to play. Over time, more and more iTunes songs had this problem. Someone recommended that I look in the hard drive library, for individual titles, and sure enough, there they were! I've been dragging them back to iTunes but this is going to take forever, because I'm a music teacher and I have a lot of songs in my library.
In this process, I decided to see if the songs were still on the external hard drive, the Time Machine. However, I get the message "your time machine back up disk cannot be found." I have no idea what this must mean, because the Time Machine has been plugged in for a couple of years now. But somehow, the computer doesn't recognize it any more.
Are the two problems related? And what should I do?

There is no relation.
Time Machine backups : my opinion is that this is a real waste of disk space, usefull for a few number of files but that's all ! In case of a reinstallation, everyone is performing a fresh installation ... In addition, after a certain time, TM erases the oldest files.
I personnaly backup only on mediums (CDs, DVDs, DVDs) etc ... then i'm always sure to find again what i'm searching for.
iTunes : a "!" means that you have moved from one place to another an audio file (or erasing it by error) and iTunes has just stored a link to the file and not the file inside its own folders. Probably you have never consolidated you library. The question is : where are you storing your files ? inside your mac plus inside external drives ? Please make sure, if you are managing often files in iTunes, to consolidate them in order for iTunes to copy them inside its own folders, else it becomes quickly a nightmare.
iTunes manages files on 3 different ways now :
- real files inside it
- links to files out of its folders
- files from iTunesMatch
