Camera no longer mounts

I've been using a Fuji FinePix 4800 for a number of year, and through a number of OS updates... without a hitch. Suddenly, the camera will no longer mount, and I can no longer download photos. I had thought that this was an issue related to my HD, which crashed (and died) soon after this problem appeared. However, since getting a new HD (thanks, AppleCare), the problem persists. I thought that the memory card inside may be bad, but even switching with another card produces no results... could this be a camera issue? A iPhoto issue? Both?
Help!!!
B&W G4/600 T-1202Combo; PB G4/1.33/15" Combo; iMac G4/15" Combo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   160GB FW HD

I don't believe iPhoto will recognize a FW cable. Try plugging the current cable into another port.
Check out my posts in Re: More import Problems for a couple of things to try.
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 written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Camera Drives (CompactFlash) no longer mount with Aperture 2.0

    Has anyone noticed that camera drives no longer mount in the finder. This means that we no longer have access to these drives in the Finder. I believe this started with the release of Aperture 2.0.
    Stellarphotorecovery no longer sees these drives.
    In addition, files saved to the flash cards (scanned images) are no longer seen by Aperture, iPhoto or Image Capture.
    Anyone have any idea on how we can mount these devices?

    I have been running the Aperture 2.0.1 upgrade for some time now and still can't import Aperture albums. It's all or nothing.
    Does anyone else continue to have the problem after upgrading to 2.0.1?
    Thanks

  • LaCie Hard Drive No Longer Mounts on iBook G4

    Hello,
    My LaCie 600 GB Hard drive will no longer mount onto my iBook G4. I had this problem about 6 months ago. It was solved by reformatting my whole computer through the installation disks that came with my computer. After I reformatted it, the hard drive was immediately recognized. I don't want to go that route again because I have a lot of programs on there that would take forever to reinstall. I have all of my important info backed up, just not the programs itself.
    I've tried running:
    Macaroni
    Utility Disk
    Data Rescue II
    And neither of these came up with any "diagnosis" on why my hard drive won't mount. I check my cables through plugging my hard drive in other computers, and it works fine. I think it has to do with my hardware on my iBook G4.
    When I plug it into my usb port, the blue light on my hard drive turns on, and I can hear the inside spinning. It just doesn't pop up onto my desktop. It doesn't show up in disk utility either.
    Any ideas on what I can do?
    -Kristen

    I would contact the folks at LaCie for their feedback.

  • Drives no longer mount - Only after restart do they mount

    Upgrade to from 10.4 to 10.5 and ran all updates...currently have 10.5.4. My external drives no longer mount when i plug them in via usb port. Worked perfectly before upgrade. Additionally my ipod wont mount either. They dont show up in disc utility either...However if i have these devices plugged in with the computer turned on (and they aren't mounting) and i restart my computer then when it boots up again they mount and function just fine. but if i unmount and turn them off and turn them back on...they dont mount.
    any suggestions?

    Hi grant862
    I seam to be having the same issue. I have a number of Flash cards and a flash card reader, well tow card readers actually. I cant get the cards to mount. I have tried swapping usb cables and card readers. I have tried both readers in all my USB ports (17" Mac Book - 10.5.4). The only way that I can get them to mount is if I plug the cards back into the cam,eras an connect them. I think there is a software glitch somewhere. I don't think its the usb ports as I have tried keyboards and mice connected via these ports with no issue. I don't expect an answer to this, but Grant - if you are still out there - I wanted you to know you weren't alone. I am going to try re-installing the 10.5.4 combi download and see what happens. Oh yes and 'repair permissions' (which I have already done once...) but am beginning to think that this is just a bit like saying a mantra as a way of calming me.
    ...Ohmmm madhi padhi ohmmm....

  • IPod no longer mounts since Leopard upgrade

    My iPod no longer mounts since I upgraded to Leopard. I'm using a USB 2 port that's part of a third party PCI card I installed myself. Used to work fine before the Mac OS upgrade.
    If I reboot with the iPod already plugged in, it mounts.
    Help?

    Forgot to mention that I had tried those:
    Authorize your purchases from an administrator account
    -> Yep, I'm the admin
    Authorize using the correct account name
    -> Nothing changed- I am only authorizing my devices, and only use my account on the machine. Definitely using the right account name.
    Turn Off User Account Controls (Windows Vista and Windows 7 Only)
    -> Did this a long, long time ago, so definitely not the issue.
    Remove the SC Info folder
    -> This was the only new thing that I had seen yesterday when I tried it, and went through these steps, to no avail. Still exactly the same problem. I closed iTunes, deleted the folder, rebooted and relaunched iTunes and synced the device. Same thing.
    The problem is the computer IS authorized, and I can sync one device, but not the other. No problem with iPhone 4- just iPod Touch, 3rd gen. It seems to be in a weird state.
    One thing would lead me to believe it's a PC/iTunes problem, but then it is only with one device and not the other. Hard to point to the root of the problem. I just don't want to lose the data on the iPod- I've done a lot of work on it.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

  • IPod no longer mounting on Desktop or appearing in iTunes sidebar

    After upgrading to iTunes 7 (7.0.2 installed), my iPod with Video will no longer mount on the desktop and does not appear in the iTunes sidebar.
    When I am recharging/updating the content of my iPod, I am unsure when to disconnect, as I am getting 'Do no disconnect' displaying on my iPod screen all the time.
    Previously, I could click on the eject button within iTunes, and the iPod would continue recharging, but I wouldn't get the 'Do no disconnect' warning on the iPod once I had ejected the iPod on the side bar and shut down iTunes. The iPod display would only show the charging battery symbol and I could disconnect after one hour of charging, if need be.
    Now it just says 'Do no disconnect' all the time.
    I have reset etc, but no matter what I do, all I get is the permanent 'Do no disconnect'.

    Just checked. The display is frozen. It says 'Do no disconnect' and has the red warning symbol.

  • S230U Twist - Camera no longer works after Win 8.1

    Hello all! 
    I've scoured the forums and tried EVERYTHING but I still cannot find a solution to my problem:
    After I upgrade from Win 8 to Win8.1, my camera no longer works. It shows a gray screen with a camera and a diagonal line across it but the green camera light shows up; I also get a shutter sound when take a picture but the image is only of  the aforementioned gray camera screen. I can't use the camera for video in skype or any other video chat function. 
    My Integrated Camera driver version is 3.4.7.26 (SunplusIT) dated 3/15/2013. I tried to upgrade but it seems to be the latest one. 
    I've also checked that the Lock Screen setting is set to ON for "Swipe down on lock screen to use camera". 
    SOMEONE, please HELP!

    Hi,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I'm really sorry to hear that when you try to use webcam in your Lenovo S230U Twist, you are getting a crossed camera image.
    Check if your camera is in normal or private mode. This could be happening because you might have set your camera in private mode.
    Go into Lenovo Settings App and select camera.
    There will be the options of Private and Normal.
    Select Normal.
    Also, in Settings > Permissions, make sure that Skype and other similar apps have permission to access the Webcam or Microphone.
    Hope this helps!
    Best regards,
    Mithun.

  • Camera no longer works after 6.0.1

    My camera no longer works after an update to 6.0.1 on iPhone 5. It now will make the noise and animation, but the camera app freezes and won't take the picture. Any luck for anyone else?
    EDIT: Scratch that, turning my phone off and then back on seems to have fixed the issue.
    Message was edited by: Pichu0102DM

    The same powers-that-be fixed the problem for me. It's even more mysterious, since I know I did not restart the computer. I was just surfing along, laboriously using the browser's navigation buttons, when out of habit I pressed the button on the mouse and it worked. It's been working ever since.
    Since I notice that 23 other people have this problem (so far), there's clearly something that needs looking at even if the problem somehow corrects itself.

  • Striped + Mirrored software RAID no longer mounting

    I have a MacPro 4,1 using the 4 internal bays each with a 1.5GB drive. Drives 1&2 are mirrored, drives 3&4 are mirrored. Those 2 mirrored drives are then striped together for a volume called 'Titanic.' Been working great for years, but just recently Titanic will no longer mount. My mirrors don't show any errors, but it seems I lost the stripe configuration. I updated to Yosemite last week. When running verify and repair I get:
    Invalid number of allocation blocks. The volume could not be verified completely. File system check exit code is 8.
    Running Terminal's checkRaid I get this:

    Essentially if my mirrors are fine can I repair the striping? I have everything backed up offsite, but before I put my resources in that direction is there anything I can do to repair the problem?

    My jab at it: Apple vs SoftRAID, for RAID 0+1?
    Began under Mountain Lion or earlier without a rebuild?
    The drives are enterprise type 7.2k 1.5TB (typo) and verified with checksum during vs lips and a tanning for weak sectors...?
    SoftRAID today checks in background for media and I/O errors as well as stepped-read mirrors (3 should be minimum)
    I don't see any reason not to erase and restore, probably to a new set of 3-4 2TB drives with current OS.

  • External drives no longer mounting on other Mac since Leopard Install

    I have recently upgraded my old iMac to a Mac Mini with Leopard, however since using my Iomega 320GB External Hard Disk and also my 2GB Kingston USB Stick on my Mini they no longer mount on my old iMac, it's like Leopard has somehow created a volume on them ensuring they won't mount elsewhere anymore.
    I still have lots of files on my old iMac that I need to transfer over to my Mini so this is a problem to me.
    Any ideas?

  • Daisy-Chained External Drive No Longer Mounting

    I have two external hard drives daisy-chained (firewire 800) to my iMac. The hard drive directly connected my iMac mounts fine. The daisy-chained hard drive no longer mounts, after mounting perfectly fine for a few months. I've tried restarting, etc with no success. Any help would be appreciated.

    moretoexplore wrote:
    No, it does not mount directly. I did however try using the other hard drive's power cord and it mounted without problem. But this doesn't fix the problem.. only one drive is mounting. At least it seems I have ruled out a more serious problem with the drive itself. I'm contacting Lacie to get a new power cord. Hopefully, with a new power cord, this will resolve the issue and it isn't some sort of daisy-chain issue.
    I think you have solved the problem by elimination.
    You can prove that it's the power cord by using the "bad" one on the working drive. If it stops working, it's guaranteed to be the power cord.
    I believe that there were some issues with some of the LaCie Power Supplies.

  • Firewire 800 external drive no longer mounting

    My firewire 800 external hard drive is no longer mounting on my MBP. It powers up, spins, but has no reaction to being plugged into my computer. I've tried connecting it and the turning it on, and connecting it while it was already turned on. I've tried different cables and different types of adapter cables (fw800 to 400, fw800 to USB, etc.), but there is no communication between my drive and my Mac. Same goes if I connect it to my wife's Macbook, or my iMac at work.
    I recently had the logic board and left i/o board replaced on my MBP, I'm not sure if this is relevant since the drive has worked since the replacements and I get the same results on other Macs.
    What should I do next?

    who makes the drive set up?
    OWC for example has a history of bad power supplies that make the drive not accessible (drive spins up but never spins all the way up)

  • No longer mount NFS volumes with 2010.q1 release:

    Has anyone else seen this? I can no longer mount any of my NFS volumes with root squash since upgrading to 2010.q1. I have a ticket open with Sun (72644622), but everyone is apparently off/away.
    Before they all went off, Sun Eng. suggested setting max supported NFS version to 3, but this of course did not work. Hosts trying to mount the volumes error out with:
    call_verify: server HOST_IP_HERE requires stronger authentication.
    I have double checked that the atuh is set to sys (not krb), but it looks like the nfsd is not respecting this.
    Of course this has knocked all our VMware mounts offline as well, and using krb for these is out of the question....
    Had to update to support the new FC card...which works great...but me needs me nfs shares....
    Fishworks doods, stop yelling at drives and help a brother out ;)

    I wish I could tell you, but it seems we lost a CIM card. Worse yet, this failure was completely SILENT. Not a single "problem" listed in the logs. However, when attaching another J4400, I noticed an alarm LED on the failed CIM and verified that the storage was only seen by 1 path. Kind of disconcerting that availability could be reduced significantly without so much as an email.
    I'll let you know if we can get to the new release later this week.

  • Extl Drive : No longer mounting

    I use my Lacie Firewire to backup my system. It is bootable and recently no longer mounts. It is daisy chain to another External Lacie Burner. I have taken the Drive
    to another Mac, to ensure that my firewire connections are OK. I have also removed all peripherals and done a PRAM. Repaired permissions and Diskwarrior.
    No joy. Any other suggestions please. Thanks

    Could try this, except without doing the hot plugging for Firewire (some debate about whether or not Firewire hot plugging, plugging while a device is on, is harmful or not. Probably not harmful, but just to play it safe.)This helped someone else recently.
    I solved such an issue with my firewire 800 drives via shutting down the Mac, pulling all cables (power, usb, audio, etc.), waiting for at least 15 seconds (I waited longer), and putting the power cable and keyboard/mouse cable back in.
    Then start the Mac, and when it finished loading the system try again mounting your drive by putting the cable in.
    It's an official procedure from Apple, but I can't seem to find the explanation on their side, the name of it escapes me.
