Blank CD's not showing up on OS

See subject, also not shown in itunes so I can't burn CD's

Well maybe a little more info would help us to help you.
Which generation SuperDrive do you have?
Have you bought the correct CD's or DVD's for it?
As in +R -R etc...? The newest drives recognize all formats, but some of the older ones did not.
Make sure you have purchased the correct ones for your drive.

Blank CD/DVDs not showing up in finder

Hi,
When I insert a brand new blank cd or dvd, it does not show up in finder or the desktop, which is how i used to make data dvds and such. however it does write in itunes or idvd, it will write to it and recognize it. any ideas?

Open up preferences and then go to CDs & DVDs. For the options on "When you insert a blank CD/DVD" choose "Open Finder." This should work for you.

History is blank! does not show any browsing history even changing the settings v 3.6.20 Mac OS

Regardless of the settings you choose, Firefox is not showing any browsing history. It's happening in version 3.6.20 for Mac as well as V 5 for windows. I see a lot of the same questions on the internet but no answers

I'm on Linux. There is no QuickTime for the Linux platform, but I see the player loading (caching) that movie. The Gecko Media Player doesn't seem to be able to play that file embedded, but does play it if I open the .mov file directly in the player.

Select a destination volume blank and HD not showing up in disc utility

Hi
I have sold my PowerBook G4 and was trying to wipe the hard drive so that the buyer would not have access to any deleted files. I used the install disc and clicked erase free space. Now, I have tried to install the CD Mac OS X and it gets up to "Select a destination" and this is blank with no option to click anything except "Go back". When I open up desk utility, my HD does not appear there. The HD was working fine before I clicked on "erase free space" earlier.
Any suggestions?

When you say that the HDD isn't showing up in Disk Utility, do you mean that it isn't showing up on the left hand side of the app like in this picture?

Visio 2013 opens my old VSD files fine - but they are blank and do not show content

Hello,
I have downloaded a trial of Visio Pro 2013. I opened an existing VSD file and when I open it, it is blank. No error message or anything. Shows it open but it's a blank screen.
It opens fine in previous version but blank in 2013. Is there some default or layer that needs to be turned on? Something that needs to be enabled? Why can't I see the contents?
Regards,
Elizabeth

Hi,
Visio 2013 has a dramatically different file format.
Method 1. Open the VSD file in Visio 2013 ,it’ll display in Compatibility Mode and use Compatibility checker to see if the file is normal. And I recommend you convert the VSD file to VSDX to test.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/visio-help/compatibility-between-different-versions-of-visio-HA102749766.aspx
Method 2. There is a setting in Visio 2013 in File > Options > Trust Centre > File Block Settings. Don’t tick “Visio 2003-2010 Binary Drawings, Templates and Stencils”.
Method 3. Open Visio 2013 in safe mode, run visio.exe /safe. If it can open normally, disable some add-ins from File > Option >Add- Ins.
Method 4. Clean Temp folder.
The temporary copy of the drawing file is named ~$$FileName.~vsd.

Method 5. Repair Visio 2013 from Control Panel > Program and Features.

BLOB column's image is not showing up in Forms

Hi All,
I am using Forms 10g. I created a default form (using wizard) for a table that has a BLOB column. Form builder automatically created an image item that corresponds to the BLOB column. The problem is that when I run the, the image item is always blank, and is not showing any image. Although I know that the BLOB column contains valid images, which I can see using PL/SQL developer tool.
The form is compiling without error, and also, there is no runtime error message. So without reporting a compile time/runtime error, the Form is not showing the image. Can anybody help me plz??? this is urgent, any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
I am simply using the Forms default "EnterQuery" and "ExecuteQuery" buttons. I have not written a single line of code. That is, just using the forms default funcionality.
Thanks.

Bookmark Toolbar entries not showing up in blank space allocated for them under Navigation Toolbar.

Using Firefox 3.6.13 and 4.0b8. Both are not showing up my Bookmark Toolbar entries. The item does exist. I've used Firefox for years and that toolbar has always showed up. Confirmed that it still exists and was not inadvertently trashed by viewing item and listing when opting to Manage Bookmarks. The item is checked off for display in the menu drop-down (View-Toolbars-Bookmark Toolbar), the space where it would normally display my entries shows up directly under the Navigation Toolbar, but it is blank with no entries displayed.

In the View menu select Toolbars, and then Customize to open the customize toolbar dialog. With the customize toolbar dialog displayed, there should be an icon with the label "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" on the bookmarks toolbar. If it is not there, drag and drop the icon called Bookmarks from the customize toolbar dialog onto the bookmarks toolbar. There will be 2 icons called Bookmarks, the one you want will have an icon that looks like a sheet of paper (it does on Windows, I believe it is the same on the Mac).

After installing or upgrading to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not show homepage, customize shows a blank page and the option button does not work

I am the Windows admin for a university department and install PCs with Firefox all the time. This problem does not happen with every PC I maintain, only a select few (different model laptops with Windows 8.1 and update 1.) Until today, it only happened with new user accounts (with admin rights) that I setup on the laptops for our staff. Today this happened with The Administrator account while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I install Windows from a saved image that was created using sysprep.
I have tried the many suggestions of resetting Firefox, deleting the users Firefox profile, deleting the users Windows profile, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helps. After uninstalling, I run an app to delete temp files and caches and will even manually remove registry keys HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. Plus I reboot and make sure the install folder is deleted after uninstall.
Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial setup window for migrating IE and/or Chrome pops up and after clicking the Finish button, Firefox starts, but does not show the initial new user page, only a blank page. Clicking on the Options button (3 bars) does nothing. Right-clicking in the proper area, the popup menu appears so I can choose to Customize, but that only opens another tab with about:customize in the URL and the page is blank. From the right-click popup menu, I can enable the Menu Bar and get to Options from that.
My latest attempt has helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned up, deleted user Firefox profile, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Inital startup runs, and tells me I'm not up to date, and the Options button works. But I still cannot customize.
I then upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no startup page, no options button and no customize. I can downgrade to 30 and get all but customize working again.
Only Addon is one for McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which just after installing is disabled.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

Blank DVD and CD not showing up in Finder or anywhere

My blank dvd and cd are not showing up in Finder. I checked my preference and deleted from my library com.apple.finder.plist. All to no avail. I have the new upgraded Lion.

When I open the Disk Utility I see SuperDrive but I can't burn nor eject the disk. The only way I can eject the DVD is to restart my computer.
Do other blank discs appear normally?
Do other commercially manufactured discs (software, movies) show up normally?
Those questions are to help narrow down exactly what the problem is.

Honestly i don't think those are going to make much difference for this problem. Go ahead and do them, but they're usually last resort desparation solutions, not first resort.

Document content does not show up on screen. Only a blank, gray page.

When I open an adobe document, the contents do not show on screen. Only a blank gray page. How can I fix this?

Hi 89r0z62cap,
It sounds as though that PDF was created from a scanned image, and you have the "Show Large Images" option deselected. Try this:
Open the Preferences dialog box (Reader/Acrobat > Preferences on Mac OS; File > Preferences on Windows).
Click Page Display and make sure that Show Large Images is selected under Page Content and Information.
That should do the trick, but let us know if it doesn't.
Best,
Sara

Blank CD/DVD's NOT SHOWING UP IN FINDER

I selected appropriate settings in Finder. If I insert a music dvd or video or any disc with something on it - no problem. When I insert a blank disc - it will not show up. So I created a burn folder and put some files in - hit burn - it actually looked like it was burning but no way to see what it put on cd since I can't see it.
What's up with this????
Thanks,
Sharon

I did all of those things. It's not a hardware problem because if you go to System Profiler you can see the dvd. Also did an archive and reinstall at request of Apple. There is a software incompatibility or bug in Finder - no way to know what software is conflicting to cause this. The IMAC is going back - I've already spent a dozen hours figuring out nitpicky things due to Leopard. My Mac Book Pro needs a new optical drive as it won't read dvd's so I need to send it back. What is it with Apple and these drives? Searching the archives of all the forums on the net this is a problem that has apparently been around for quite some time across the product line.
