Belkin F5U541 FireWire to SCSI Adapter

I was using the Belkin adapter on a G4 iMac running Tiger. Now, I'm on an Intel iMac (21.5") running Snow Leopard.
So far, I've had no luck using this device. I can't seem to find a driver available; there is nothing on the Belkin site for any OS-X. Can't quite recall how I set up the older iMac years ago. But, I'm sure it was a PowerPC driver.
Idea on how I might be able to get this going. This currently shows up as an unknown device:
Unknown Device:
Manufacturer: 0xD016
GUID: 0xD0160000008F7B
Maximum Speed: Up to 200 Mb/sec
Connection Speed: Up to 200 Mb/sec

Hi All,
Sorry for the noise. This works fine without the need to install another driver. My bad.
I had a loose SCSI connection. Once I fixed that, it worked.
So, if anyone is wondering, this converter still does the job.

Anybody know to where to get a 2nd wave Firewire to SCSI Adapter?

Hello
I want to connect my Imacon Flextight Photo to my 20" Imac.
My friend has 2nd Wave's Firewire-to-SCSI interface adapter and it works great.
I hear all sort of weird stuff about adapting these two component.
People are slacking of Ratoc, Orange micro and other brands. Doesnt work with Panther and so on.
So I just want this item which works on his Intel duo and has worked on his Powerbook and Ibook.
Even though I have heard others complain about having problems with 2nd wave.
Anybody know where to get it? Please...
Feel free emailing me directly.
Thank you!
Regards
Reimar

And oh I have tried their homepage.
They dont have it anymore.

Help with settings / tips for ratoc fr1sx firewire - scsi adapter

I'm hooking up a Quantum DLT 7000 using the ratoc firewire to scsi adapter and I think a few people on this board have been through the process, which I've read can be a bit of a hassle.
I was hoping soemoine might be able to share what settings ultimately worked for them on the fr1 utility or any other tips they may have for using this kind of setup.
thanks

Sorry Scott - you're not getting the responses for this at all... I don't use a Ratoc adapter, but have considered it. I do recall Trai talking about this particular adapter some time ago now, and the fact that the slightly older driver was more reliable than the newer version. Whether or not that situation has since changed I can't say.
The error message you are getting might indeed be referring to the driver for the Ratoc adapter - is there an older driver available on their website at all?
You might try contacting Trai directly to see if he can shed some light on this - as far as I know the adapter isn't widely used, although some folk must be using it, I'd have thought.
A final thought is to see if you can find someone who has a DLT drive connected to a G4 or 5 and ask them if they can read the tape back in to verify the info is written to it correctly. My guess is the Ratoc driver writes out fine, but struggles to import it all back in...
Good luck!

I need to connect my old Mac book pro to the new one to transfer files. The old one doesn't have Thunderbolt 2 and the new one doesn't have Firewire 800. Will the Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter or Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter work?

I want to transfer data from my old Mac book pro to my new one using migrate. The old computer doesn't have Thunderbolt 2 and the new one doesn't have Firewire 800. Does the Thunderbolt to Firewire or the Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter work to connect them and transfer data?
Thank you!

Yes, use a Firewire cable and the FW to Tbolt adaptor.

Firewire to USB adapter?

I recently purchased a iMac 27 i5. Love it. But it has only USB and thunderbolt ports. My beloved Nikon 4000 film scanner only has firewire connectivity. I found a firewire to USB adapter online and purchased one. It came from China. When I plugged it into my self-powered USB hub, I got a message saying a USB device was drawing too much power and it shut down one or more other USB devices to protect the computer. I couldn't print. I realized the adapter might be the problem and when I disconnected it, my printer came back online.
Q1 -- has anybody found a firewire to USB adapter that works?
Q2 -- is there another workaround to connect firewire devices to the new iMacs?
Q3 -- is it possible to have a USB port put into the scanner hardware?
George

Thanks, Niel. That makes sense ... should have thought of that ... assuming that will reduce the excessive power draw? I see Apple sells the 400-800 cable.

Connectiong an external thunderbolt hard drive to an older iMac via firewire to thunderbolt adapter, as my Mac doesn't have any thunderbolt entry?

Is there a possibility to connect an external thunderbolt hard drive to my iMac (originally Leopard 10.5.8. upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.3) via firewire to thunderbolt adapter, as my Mac doesn't have any thunderbolt, but has two firewire entries?
Would like to use the hard drive's big data stocking capacity of 8TB, but actual WD-HDDs of such a capacity have no more other entries than thunderbolt.

Basically, no. The Thunderbolt-Firewire adapter does not work "in reverse," meaning, you have to have a Thunderbolt port on your Mac in order to use it.
Most Thunderbolt drives that I have seen also have a USB 3 port. You could use that, but on on an older Mac that does not have a USB 3 port you will be limited to USB 2 speeds.

Audio problem with firewire to thunderbolt adapter

I am running four channels of audio from a Yamaha Motif synthesizer into a new iMac using the firewire to thunderbolt adapter and recording to Logic. I get very loud distortion. I unplug the same cord and remove the adapter and run the same audio into my 2011 MacBook Pro and record the audio with no distortion. I can run MIDI into the iMac using the adapter with no problem. What gives?

The iMac has three USB and three Thunderbolt. The Yamaha has Firewire out which carries 16 channels of audio. It works great with my MacBook Pro, but the Thunderbolt Converter seems to mess it up. It's fru
strating having bought a brand new iMac and not being able to use it to record. Now when I try to record a single channel of piano, Logic starts blinking on and off, alternating with whatever window is behind it. This is doubly frustrating.

Is out there a firewire to usb adapter?

Hello,
I am looking for a firewire to usb adapter, so I have a third usb port on my macbook pro late 2011. Does it excist?

Keep your eyes open for the Thunderbolt hubs and adapters that are starting to come out Some of them have multiple jacks with USB 2, USB 3, Firewire, etc all sharing the Thunderbolt port. Some even have internal disk drives and one has a Blu-ray DVD drive. Some are kind of pricey, but gives you lots of options for connectivity.

Firewire card or adapter for g7 1237dx

I have a G7-1237dx. Can I get a firewire card or adapter to allow me to run pro tools? Need a 6pin firewire solution.
thanks
Steve

If the "dual mirror" Power Mac G4 is the model immediately before the last one with FireWire 800, then it has FireWire 400. You need an cable like this one with FireWire 400 (6-pin) on one end and FireWire 800 (9-pin) on the other end
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/1394B96036/
Will also be moving data from a Lacie d2 external hard drive to the imac
Again, it depends on the type of connector it has. If it has FireWire 400, then that same cable will work. If it has FireWire 800, the you need a regular FireWire 800 cable with a 9-pin connector at both ends.

Is there a firewire to HDMI adapter for IPAD 4?

Is there a firewire to HDMI adapter for IPAD 4?

It's called the "Lightning" connector. Here is the adapter you need:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter
The Lightning Digital AV Adapter mirrors exactly what you see on your device so that everyone in the room can enjoy it on your widescreen TV, video projection screen, or other HDMI-compatible display. The Lightning Digital AV Adapter also supports video out for watching movies, TV shows, and more.
You can also stream wirelessly using AirPlay but that requires Apple TV. Streaming music or other audio requires an AirPort Express or compatible device.

Is anyone having a problem connecting 400 firewire thru an adapter for the 800 firewire port on a Macbook Pro 2011? It does a kernel panic every time I connect it. Is there a "proper way" to connect it?

Is anyone having a problem connecting 400 firewire thru an adapter for the 800 firewire port on a Macbook Pro 2011? It does a kernel panic every time I connect it. Is there a "proper way" to connect it? Just in case it makes a difference I am trying to hook up an Avid Mbox Pro for Pro tools.

What is the part number and model of Firewire adapter?
I have used them in the past without any problems whatsoever.

Toshiba BT Stack not working with Belkin mini BT v4.0 adapter

Hello,
I've recently purchased a belkin mini bluetooth v4.0 adapter for desktop but when i try to use it with toshiba bluetooth stack when i reach the part about the device plug it will not recognize it.
I know its because it not listed on the default programs list and i have to add the device manually but i cant seem to work it out.
If u can provide me a detailed walkthrough on how to modify my tosrfusb in order for the toshiba bluetooth stack to accept this usb bluetooth adaptor i would really appreciate it.
I saw there was a similar thread but it was locked and the posters there didnt mention how they made it work
Im using windows 7 64 version (toshiba bluetooth stack format is 8.0012 for 64 version)
The usb is called on device manager Belkin Bluetooth 4.0 USB Adapter and my hardware id is
USB\VID_050D&PID_065A&REV_0112
USB\VID_050D&PID_065A
I have already installed it using its software cd rom for the record, so i if need to uninstall it please let me know. Try in advance for your time and patience

In my personal you should visit the Belkin support website to get more details how to get running such Mini-Bluetooth V4.0-Adapter
As you said, the software was provided on the CD.
Therefore I assume that you need to install some Belkin software to get this USB adapter recognized properly
Before the system would not recognize this USB adapter, you will not be able to establish the BT connection.

How to replace SCSI adapter ? Solaris 2.6

I've got broken SCSI adapter but root Disk is OK.
There is SCSI adapter another model.
How to repair system.
PS. Reconfigure option ( b -r ) during boot doesn't work.

"init 5" is a safe way of shutting down a SUN SPARC machine.
It will power-off the system from one of the shell windows.You have to be root to do this.
You should have someone to check all the processes and applications when the machine power's up.
thanks & regards

BUG! Unable to modify SCSI Adapter type in (ESX) VM Properties through SCVMM2012R2

Hello,
I am doing a proof on concept with SCVMM in our ESX environment. We are running the following:
vSphere Client 5.1.0 Build 1471691
VMWare vCenter Server Version 5.1.0 Build 1473063
ESX host(s) Version 1900470
This is a show stopper for me. I discovered this issue when deploying a new VM and the machine would BSOD at bootup. I discovered that the SCSI type had switched itself to LSI Logic Parallel when it should be LSI Logic SAS. I shut the VM off, changed the
adapter type (in vCenter) back to LSI Logic SAS and turned the VM Back on. It worked fine.
I then attempted to modify a current VM that was off. I can change the SCSI adapter type to any other type in VMM; however, when I go into vCenter, the adapter does NOT change. It appears that changing the settings in VMM has NO impact on the VM. I can change
other properties without issue (# or CPU's, amount of RAM) and that works fine. I am at a standstill. Please resolve this issue ASAP.
Thanks,
Dan

the ability to build a VM in an ESX environment w/ VMM should be considered a basic task. In fact, I have seen people say that they have been successful in doing so. I'd love to get more information. The LSI Logic SAS SCSI adapter is the preferred adapter
for all Windows VM's. If VMM does not support that, then it does not support building a VM. It is bad enough that VMM can not create a VM with a VMXNET3 NIC, which should also be considered a base minimum capability. These are fundamental flaws w/ VMM in its
ability to support VMWare environments and should be fixed ASAP. Otherwise, VMM is useless in an ESX environment.
The documentation I have seen from VMWare basically says that VMM does not do what it says it can do. I'm starting to believe that. If you know of something else, can you please provide a link?
What concerns me is the lack of participation from MSFT in this forum. What does this say about the future of MSFT's interest in support VMM across multiple hypervisors?

Checking scsi adapter on a v440

Hi all!
Is it possible to check what scsi adapter card is in the v440 without having to open it? Checked the cfgadm command without any luck.
The thing is that we are going to buy a new RAID-box to it and the seller stated that we need to buy an extra PCI SCSI card to get 320MB/s. Though, I think there is already a Ultra-4 SCSI card in it doing 320MB/s which I also read in every single manual for this machine. And I do not think Sun sold an older revision of it with a Ultra-3 card right?
yours,
/robert

If you wait for the next scheduled service window that gives you downtime,
you can get actual part numbers from each component and avoid confusion.
But if you must attempt to gather information before that opportunity,
you could go through the PRTDIAG output and use experience to decipher what is reported.
Or, you could go through a PRTCONF output, line by line, and try to figure it out.
An then, you could go through your MESSAGES files, again line by line,
and compare that information with what you expect to find.
There are a few Sun systems, and the V440 may be complex enough,
with enough seeproms in its circuit designs,
where the PRTFRU command gives you output.
prtfru is a non-invasive command that can show a very verbose report.
(I cannot recall if there are any man pages for it.)
There is a fully functional SCSI3 PCI card in Sun's product line.
Part number 375-3057 (X6758a) would function very well in that platform.
The dual-ported HBA is on the V440's qualified components' list:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/SunFireV440/components.html#SCSI
It can be configured for either S/E or for LVD peripherals.
