Blue screen at "still digital camera" on first install/sync to XP

I am trying to sync my new iphone with WinXP for the first time and each time computer tries to install the "still digital camera" driver it goes to Blue Screen and reboots. Phone is updated via another computer. Any help?

Hi bvearley,
Does your PC have software for a Logitech QuickCam/Webcam, Lexmark scanners, or a built-in media card reader?
If it does try uninstalling the software from Control Panel, then testing again, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502
If the issue is no longer present, download updated driver software from the accessory manufacturer.

  • Iphone recognised as "still digital camera" ?

    I have just registered my i phone and am cuurently operating on a temp number as my original is being activated...shouldn't be long now.....my problem is that when I now plug in the usb to update music etc again the computer seems to recognise the phone as "still digital camera", Itunes doesn't open and the computer shuts down as the result of a "serious error" where the truncated folder on restart mentions some kind of "apple lockdown" - if any of this looks sadly familiar or rings a bell then PLEASE HELP me....be gentle though as u have probably guessed i'm not a particularly techy person.....any help greatly appreciated .....the phone is fine at the moment but I'm a tad concerned that when I want to update music / photos etc in the near future ...this is going to happen again and again....can't be good eh ??? cheers, Malcolm

    Just to add to Nathan's post... and as an FYI...
    If you are using windows then it is correct behaviour to recognize the iPhone as a digital still camera AS WELL. So if you have photo management software loaded (photoshop premiere / corel etc), these softwares will recognize the camera portion of your phone and allow you to use 3rd party software to pull/manage the pictures on it. You should also see the iphone in My Computer which will allow you to use Windows to pull pics from it that way.

  • Movie/Video formats on Still digital cameras

    I've purchased a no-name digital picture frame for friends for the holidays. While I've got sample
    pictures they've taken with their digital camera to play fine on the frame, I'm primarily interested in editing some of their home-videos with Final Cut Pro and getting them to play on the digital frame.
    They recorded their movies on a mini-dv camera and I've digitized the files into FCP fine.
    The instructions with the frame say it will play video formats MPEG 1,2 and 4, but doesn't give any specifics beyond that on size, frame rate or other conditions of those three formats which will make movie videos compatible for the frame. As it's a no-name frame, there is no customer service information to whom I can address the question.
    I fully realize that I may need some format very specific to this frame, and it may be a trial and error game for me, but I'm wondering if any readers of this forum are also familiar with the Movie Mpeg 1,2,4 files recorded by most still digital cameras, and can provide any additional info on how I might need to create the MPEG video so it will be compatible with the frame. I'm sure I can use FCP export, Compressor or Quicktime export once I know the right specifics.
    I surmise that all these digital frames that promote the fact that they play video are talking about the movies (video) that many of these still digital cameras can create and playback internally. That's the video format I'm trying to replicate and find out more about. Any additional information would be helpful for me.
    Thanks.

    If you can make a movie in the MPEG-4 format it should be useable regardless of the frame rate or size. The optimal size usually is 640 x 480. I've found in my digital frame I need to put the items in a folder on the memory card instead of the root directory of the card. The frame can see the folder(s) and play from there. I guess it's because the card is formated FAT 16 and can't take many items in the root directory. The only issue is size of the movie file. The smaller you can make it the better it will probably play.
    My Canon camera creates 640 x 480 H.264 files at 29.7 fps which is the .mp4 format.
    Just be sure to have vanilla file names as the cards are PC based and choke on non standard characeter, i.e. 0-9 and a-z. No spaces in the file name, underscores or dashes only.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Big problem with plain blue screen on boot (not related to Leopard install)

    Hi - eventually I have worked out how to post to this forum!
    I have had a major disaster with my iMac this weekend. It began with a lock-up when I was working happily away in Blender. I got a beachball and the machine froze. I had ssh set up so I tried to go in from my iBook to kill a few processes to try to get it back on track, but without success, so eventually I had to hold down the power button to power off the machine.
    When I tried to reboot, I got the grey screen and the spinning wheel, then a plain blue screen with no mouse, no beachball and the machine just seemed to stop. I could hear the CPU going like the clappers and was able to ssh in again and check top to see what was going on, and the WindowServer(?) process was maxed out at 100%. I wasn't able to kill it and again nothing happened and on a further reboot I just had a plain blue screen.
    I have since spent a few hours trying various things to sort this out, so far to no avail.
    - Single User mode, fsck -fy: reports everything fine, no change
    - Reset PRAM, no change
    - Tried booting off my backup Firewire drive (SuperDuper) but it won't boot to it, same blue screen hang
    - Ran Disk Utility from Leopard Install DVD - permissions, checked disk, etc - no change
    - Ran DiskWarrior in Target Disk mode from iBook, no change
    - Ran Tech Tool Deluxe, no change
    - Removed RAM (not third party), put it back in, no change
    - Reinstalled Leopard using Archive & Install, no change
    - Reinstalled Leopard again, using Erase & Install, no change
    - I think I'm running out of options.
    I'd have been on the phone to Apple by now but it's Sunday tomorrow and a Bank Holiday in the UK tomorrow so it will be Tuesday at the earliest, and I know I'm going to be frustrated by having to go through all this with them again!
    A weird thing is - I CAN get logged in in Safe Mode now and again, and when I do, the mouse pointer has a small, almost transparent rectangular graphic attached that follows the pointer around. Barely perceptible but it's there - it looks like a Leopard icon for a txt file but barely visible. Has anyone ever seen anything like this?? It really feels like something has corrupted, but with a totally clean OS install, is that possible?
    As it stands, I'm sure this is a hardware issue but I'm not sure. I had a couple of power outages lately which I suspect are behind this.
    I'd be really grateful for anyone's thoughts on this - it's been a really frustrating couple of days.
    Cheers.

    As far as I can see, resetting the power manager on this model of iMac involves resetting the SMC, which is unplugging all cables for 15 seconds, plugging back in and powering up. Tried that too, same result. In terms of third party software, nothing. Clean Leopard install is the lot.

  • Vfw for still digital cameras?

    hi;
    can a still camera be hooked and detected by JMF?
    i tried every search for VFW and digital cameras but i could not find out if i can capture video from a stills camera.
    thanks.

    at last i get an answer in this forum.People aren't ignoring you... it's just not a very active area, and people haven't necessarily used digital cameras as webcams.
    i actually was wondering if i could capture the same data that is delivered to a >still camera LCD screen. If you mean the actual live video viewscreen even before you take a photograph... then I seriously doubt it. That's not what the camera was designed to do.
    You're asking a digital stills camera to behave like a digital camcorder / webcam.
    When you connect your camera up to your PC, using a USB cable... does it appear as a virtual disk drive / USB mass storage device ?
    If so, then you may be able to just read the JPEGs as if they were stored on a disk drive. ( only after the camera user takes the pictures )
    That is the limit of my knowledge in this area...
    regards,
    Owen

  • I have a MacBook Pro, it recently started freezing upon startup. It would get to a blue screen and just sit there. I've tried booting in safemode to run disk repair and still doesnt help. If I do manage to get past the blue screen, it still freezes

    My mac keeps freezing upon startup. It will get to the blue screen and promptly freeze. If I manage to get past the blue screen, and open up youtube on google chrome, it will freeze before it loads youtube. I've tried safeboot and disk repair, nothing seems to work. I even tried to factory reset it but it wont connect to my internet when I reboot with power + option.. any ideas?

    This can be used to boot the machine and delelte enough files to get it to boot normally.
    .Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
    Read about storage drive so you can store your extra stuff.

  • Windows 7 (64) Blue Screen of Death at Start up after installing iTunes 10

    I just got a brand new computer a week ago and decided to install iTunes 10 this evening. The install finished successfully and a message prompted me to restart to complete the installation. So I did. Now my machine will not boot. Each time it does, I get a blue screen of death. Attempting to restore the system fails.
    I was able to start Windows in Safe Mode once but I wasn't able to uninstall programs while in safe mode so I couldn't remove itunes 10. And now I can no longer start my machine in Safe Mode.
    Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas to solve it?

    Windows 7 64 bit core i7
    BSOD while updating to iTunes 10 with suspended installation of Apple Mobile Device Support. Network drivers no longer working as a result. Attempted fix by downloading from a different machine and competing install via files transferred over on flash drive. No dice. Attempted removal of iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, Apple Software Update to see if this would fix. Followed this up with a restart. This seems to have improved matters as system is starting up faster. No dice. Try reinstall network drivers from Sony ViaoCare disk. Installed and restarted. No dice. Next, try Widows 7 Network and Sharing diagnostics. No dice. Next try manual removal & reinstall of network driver using Device Manager, restart. Can't seem to re-install Network Controller. Still trying to solve this.

  • My computer running on Windows 7 blue screens often whenI use Firefox since I installed latets version

    I have been using Mozilla for a long time. On one computer where I am running Windows 7, I suddenly started having problems after I downloaded the latest upgrade to Firefox 7.0.1 . not only does silverlight not work-always crashes, but firefox often (several times a day) stops responding and my computer blue screens. None of this was happening until this latest upgrade.
    I am not currently sending this from my computer with the problem because I cannot get Firefox to open

    Updating this thread...
    I see some people talking about Forms 6i and SQL Plus crashing when connecting to a database:
    APPCRASH Problem for plus80 and forms 6i builders
    Forms Developer 6i will crash if you try connecting to a database running the AL32UTF8 character set. Older systems require the UTF8 character set.
    Here are several very old threads with similar issues:
    <p>connecting form 6i  to oracle database 10G express edition
    <br>Forms 6i X 10g Database (the solution is here)
    More info: In Windows 7, I am running Forms 6i WITHOUT compatibility mode set to XP. It all seems to be running fine. I have had no problems with it since I first installed last year.
    Unfortunately, I don't have an Oracle 11 database available to try connecting to. I have only used this setup with Oracle 9 and 10 databases.

  • Blue Screen on start up (NOT a new install)

    I am using a MacBook Pro (Intel Duo Core 2.4GHz - 4GB RAM). I am running OS X v10.5.7. No recent updates around the time of the problem.
    For three days I am unable to boot up my system, I hold at the blue screen. I cannot boot in safe mode either. I have done the PRAM reset, run disk utilities from the Mac disks. No errors were found on the HDD. When I try to reapir permissions i get the following "error: The underlying task reported failure on exit." and then "permissions verification complete"
    Eventually I decided to do an Archive and Install. Everything "loaded" from Disk 1, but then a notice came up saying that the installation failed.
    I am at a loss and our IT guy is not Mac savvy.
    Any suggestions? I don't have a recent backup, though I think I can get my data off with target disk mode. I really prefer not to have to do a wipe and reinstall, as I have quite a bit of software on the machine.

    The inability to repair permissions might mean something, but I (unfortunately) haven't a clue what that could be.
    Not being able to complete an Archive & Install--despite the hard drive supposedly being "OK" is also worrisome.
    Unfortunately, the only other thing I can think of is to save your important data, find the installation discs for your software and try an Erase and Install.
    Perhaps someone else will have better news

  • Blue Screen of Death when I try to install Leopard drivers.

    So, I've been able to use Boot Camp to install Windows XP, SP 2 on my new 20-inch aluminum iMac. This is the same version (same disk, in fact) of Windows that I installed on my old 17-inch iMac, and it worked perfectly then.
    After I finish the Windows installation, and put the Leopard disk in to install the drivers, nothing happens. No Autoplay. When I go into My Computer, and double-click on the cd, the installation process starts. After cycling through 4 drivers, I get the blue screen of death and the computer reboots.
    When everything restarts, Windows tells me that I suffered an error. I can't send an error report off, because Windows won't acknowledge my wireless internet connection yet, without the Apple drivers.
    I've tried to transfer the Boot Camp 2.1 update to the Windows partition via 2g flash drive, and no luck. Trying to run the update doesn't do anything, the icon simply lights up for a moment and then un-highlights. Nothing happens.
    I'm really confused, I didn't have ANY problems like this on my last iMac. Any help anyone might have would be greatly appreciated.

    There IS another way to try this.
    Boot to Windows and right-click My Computer or My Documents and open as "explore". Insert the Leopard disk. If it offers to install STOP it. Click on the LEFT side the plus sign next to the machine's DVD drive icon (the reason we opened the "explore" style directory). The Boot Camp files are now passive but exposed. Next right click My Computer and click properties. Next hardware and then device manager. Now you can one-by-one install the drivers using Windows hardware wizard. You might even want to drag the contents of the Leopard disk (drivers) right on to your (Windows) "desktop". In device manager open Human Interface Devices - you will find Apple Keyboard or whatever an iMac has there. Rightclick and hit Update Driver - the Wizard opens. Click 'no - not this time' and continue. Click 'install from a specific location' and continue. Next the Wizard gives you a 'browse location' option. Just click around until you locate the Boot Camp drivers in your disk or desktop and proceed - it will update, I promise you.

  • Com shows blue screen error message when ipod touch is plug in

    hey, anyone has this problem?
    when i plug in my ipod touch, a message "new hardware is found" with name (still digital cam). then the com switches to a blue screen with error messages.
    i need some help please.. thanks

    One cause of this is that you have saved a picture on your Touch when browsing the internet on Safari (by holding down on the image & selecting save). These saved images seem to cause a glitch and the PC thinks you have plugged a digital camera in causing the PC to crash. Don't know of an actual fix yet. The only work around is to delete the pics prior to plugging in the Touch. If you really want the pic just email it to yourself via wifi first. Funnily enough it is not a problem if the pic was on your pc and you synced it to the Touch via iTunes.

  • Blue Screen after installing WRT600N

    I have been running two wired high-end machines for over a year with an old Linksys 10/100 wired and wireless B Router.  I wanted to get the wired and wireless speed a bit faster so I bought the WRT600N mainly for the Gigabit switch and the USB port.  I went through the install wizard and got it configured.  But I am having numerous issues with this new router that my old trusty Linksys router never did with the same configuration.  I will enter different post for each issue if I can’t find help searching the forum.
    1.        I started to get the following:
           Blue Screen error:  “IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUALL”
    a.       I first started getting this error on the machine running the Linksys Advisor software.  The Machine is running the 64 bit version of Vista so I thought maybe the software did not like Vista or the 64 bit version.  This machine is wired to the gigabit switch on the WRT600N.  But then my other machine got the same Blue Screen Error.  It has a gigabit Nic and is not running the Linksys Advisor.  This second machine has been stable and has never had a Blue Screen on XP or Vista 32 Bit.  So when it got this same error I ruled out that my Vista 64 bit machine had a problem with a piece of hardware or a specific software application.  With both of these machines with gigabit NICs that ran fine on the old Linksys B router now getting this Blue Screen Error a bit longer than a year after I installed Vista.  And I have added no new hardware or software to the Vista 32 bit machine for years other than Windows Updates, but this machine doesn't have Vista SP1 install where the 64 bit machine does.  The 32 bit machine is a Dual Xeon CPU machine that is rock solid.
    So does anyone know what might be the issue here?  I have been in Technical support for years before I moved up to Director of Product Management and Marketing but I still keep up with the latest new software and hardware and after working on this for a few months I believe it has to be this new Linksys WRT600N router, but if someone else has seen this and fixed this and it is not the new WRT600N please let me know what you did.
    Lastly, I searched the forum and read all that I could find on this error message and nothing was helpful in my situation as these aren’t laptops moving from network to network they are desktop machines.  I also did some Google searching but no luck.
    Oh, and by the way I don’t know if the router is misconfigured or broken but my old 10/100 seemed faster on file transfer/etc. than this supposed Router with a Gigabit switch.  Anyone have any ideas on that please let me know as well.
    I am running WPA-Personal, maybe the encryption is slowing things down…. Who knows….
    Thanks for any help and since there is no new firmware I figure this router may still have some bugs and maybe this might be one.

    I'm completely exhausted.
    I cant make this "outstanding, the most powerfull" soundcard work.
    The last thing was - i deleted all the creative soft and installed only the driver. After system comes, and windows desktop is visible, the computer freezes and only hard reset can wake it up.
    What the problem is??
    I've sent this issue with my system configuration to creative, filled the form on the site.
    Just NO RESPONCE. Should I just throw my soundblaster away?
