Can no longer write to CD

It tells me to insert a CD into my writer (when there's already a CD in the writer) then ejects it after spitting out this error again. Any ideas?

I have the same problem. I can write dvd but when i try to write a cd it fails.

Can no longer write to my external HD

Hi
I have had a WD My Book Studio 2Tb external drive connected to my iMac for some time now. Just this morning once booted up I got a popop to say that I could no longer write to the volume, only read and copy from there.
I looked the permissions in 'Get info' and saw 'You can only read'.
I went into disk utility and ran a verify.
The verify suggested a repair, which did not seem to complete. It told me to save off the files and reformat the disk (I haven't done anything further yet)
FYI Get Info shows the disk is Mac OS Extended format.
Is the disk really fried or could this simply be a permissions issue? I am lost, and any help is greatly appreciated

WD drives are problem EHD's with OS X, I would recommend using a new cable to connect and then re-try. However first try doing a couple of SMC resets and see if it can be seen. If you continue to have problems replace it, I'd suggest a higher quality EHD something like a OWC (www.macsales.com) Mercury Elite Pro.

Can No Longer Write files to a NSF-mounted drive on one Server. Error -36

Hi Folks:
I have searched the Net (including these forums now) for several hours and found nothing definite.
The story is this: I have a Fedora 14 server that, up to this point, has been acting as a file server. Sometime last week (around the 28th we think) it stopped allowing people to copy files from the Mac OS X 10.6.8 workstations (which is what we have, largely) to the shared drives. It fails with a "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "" can't be read or written. (Error Code -36)." People can mount the drives in question, see them, read from them, copy from them, but not copy anything, or write anything (Save as from Word) to the drives.
Now at about the time period where this started we moved a mySQL database from this particular server somewhere else. As part of that operation, the server was rebooted. The server where we moved the DB to was not. It also have an NFS share that continues to work.
I have verified service by service that nothing is running that shouldn't be. One of my thoughts was that something came up that shouldn't of when the reboot happened. Everything seems fine in that regard.
My looking through the Net has yielded several possible answers none of which has worked. One has been that this is a sign of bad media. I have checked the drive array in question three seperate times. It has passed all those times. I started another share on a separate spindle on the server and I still cannot write to this new share on a totally different drive.
The drives in question are formatted for EXT3 (hey, I've giving out as many details as I can here! :-) ).
I have also repaired permissions on the SOURCE drives. No luck there.
My export file looks like this:
/raid/data/BigBang
*(rw,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,nohide,all_squash)
/raid/data
*(rw,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,nohide,no_root_squash)
/raid
*(rw,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,nohide,no_root_squash)
/home/rkinne/test
*(rw,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,nohide,no_root_squash)
No thoughts on security right now. I'm trying to get this darn thing to work, especially on /raid/data/BigBang. That share WAS "no_root_squash" but I changed it to "all_squash" as I've been flailing around today. There was no change in behavior. The exports file on the other server that is working is virtually identical.
Two Mac workstations work right now. One is running 10.4. The other is running 10.7.3. The rest - the problematic ones - are running 10.6.8. One is running 10.5 and is also not working.
I have also flushed the DNS caches from the servers in question, but its too early to see if that will do something yet.
This issue has flumouxed folks for years now. I understand that. Oddly, it JUST came out of the blue for us. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

If using Adobe Camera Raw on camera raw file you either have an XMP sidecar file created or the data is stored in a database. Which happens it is your option in Edit/camera raw. If you use ACR and edit a jpeg it does not create a distinct XMP file but it is also not directly written to the image either. One can still delete the edits in Bridge with Edit/develp settings.
If you use a DNG the metadata is written to the image. Not sure what process Photo Mechanic uses.
It appears to be a permission problem as other than CS6 Bridge is now 64 bit and has a new cache method there are no changes in how it handles metadata.

Can no longer write metadata to Raw files

My team an d I are working in Photoshop CS5, we write metadata to jpegs and Raw files- saving to Raw database not as sidecar .xmp files. We are no longer able to save the metadata to Raw files. There is no error message, the data writes like normal and the user who writes the metadata can see it but when you open in another computer the metadata fields are empty, however the jpegs do have the new metadata. Was there a setting change at some point? This has been going on for a couple months and I cannot find an answer anywhere. Again, we batch write to RAW+Jpeg, the jpeg files save the metadata but the Raw files look like the data saved but is not visible on any computer other thant he one that added the new metadata. This is occurring on multiple computers, both Mac and PC.

Time Machine can no longer write to drive

I have been using Time Machine to back up my iMac G5 for over a year. About two weeks ago the computer started acting really strange so I actually restored the entire system from my Time Machine backup. Everything was working great until today. The external hard drive that I've been using all this time is suddenly "read only". How do I change it back to "read/write" so Time Machine can access the hard drive properly?

It's very important to know exactly what you or the computer was doing just before this happened. Usually, things do not happen on their own.
How do I change it back to "read/write" so Time Machine can access the hard drive properly?
Changing it back when it's not clear why it changed in the first place is not always a good thing to do for several obvious reasons.
Right-click on the TM drive icon and select "Get Info"
Under Sharing & Permissions, you should see:
Your name (Me) Read & Write
(unknown) Read & Write
everyone Read only
Post back what you see and we can attempt to proceed.

Can no longer write to USB stick when formatted as FAT/FAT32

I had about 2GB worth of mixed content on an 8GB stick, which I use daily on my Mac (OS X 10.6.2) and at work (XP).
I copied all the files off it onto a folder on my Mac so I could use it to transfer some big files to my mum's laptop (Windows 7).
Having finished the job, I formatted the stick in OS X as FAT, but when I tried to copy my files back, I got an Error Code -36 when writing one of them. I tried formatting the stick in Windows 7 as FAT32, and got the exact same problem.
I then formatted it as Mac OS Extended in OS X (after doing a Verify & Repair), and this time the files all copied across to it perfectly. However when I plug the stick into Windows 7 now, it doesn't show up.
I tried formatting as FAT again in OS X, but again the files won't copy and give an Error Code -36
Any ideas?
Thanks

Two things to try: (1) On your Mac in Disk Utility, verify that the "Partition Map Scheme" of the USB drive is set to "Master Boot Record". If it's not, repartition the drive to have that scheme. (2) Format that USB drive in Windows.

Hey louiseg45826294,
Thank you for posting on Adobe forums.
Could you please let me know what Adobe Writer program you are talking about. Is it Adobe Acrobat or Reader?
Could you please share the screenshot of the exact error message that appears.
Are the PDF forms saved on your computer's local drive?
Hope to hear from you.

the problem I have since I upgraded to Mavericks version 10.9.1
The problem appears only with Mail not with other programs, not even with my browser.
When I try to zoom the text of an e-mail I received or sent , I can no longer use the keys Command + to enlarge the text, although I can reduce it with Command -.
As I have a problem with my eyes, This is a serious matter for me.
When I write an e-mail, if I select text and press Command +, it just displaces the text to the right.
Now, my husband has a USB keyboard. If he connects it to my computer, his regular Command + does not work either, but he uses the extended keyboard, then it works. Unfortunately, he needs it for a musical application which does not work with a wireless keyboard.

Firefox 3.6.4 and 3.6.6 use a process called, "plugin-container.exe" which was using up most of my CPU when I opened up multiple tabs that contained Adobe Flash files, and caused Firefox to lock up.
My solution was to use Firefox 3.5.10 which you can get from the Mozilla website at [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
I am using Adobe Flash 10.1.53.64 without any problem in this version of Firefox. Check the release notes, I believe it contains all the latest security fixes in "Firefox 3.6.4".
Hopefully, they will fix Firefox 3.6 in the next version (e.g. Firefox 3.6.7), until then you should probably use "Firefox 3.5.10".

Can no longer share my Mac to my windows PC

With 10.4, sharing my Mac to my windows PC was really easy. Now that I've installed 10.5, my PC can no longer see my mac's shared folders.
When I try to map network drive to \\192.168.1.4\shared_folder (for example), my PC just gives me an error that the "network path could not be found."
Yes, I read the online help and tried everything in "If you can’t connect to a Mac from a Windows computer"
For some reason, the systems preferences will not let me set a workgroup for my mac. I type in the workgroup name for the mac, and click save, and then when I go back to look at it again, it doesn't appear to have saved the workgroup name I typed in. So, if the workgroup name is the problem, I can't appear to fix it. why isn't it saving this information?
What the heck am I doing wrong?

To set up file sharing:
Choose Apple > System Preferences, and then click Sharing.
Select the File Sharing checkbox.
Users you have set up with accounts in Accounts preferences can access your computer by connecting to it over the network.
To refine user access to your computer and set up specific folders or volumes to share, click Add {+} at the bottom of the Folders list and select the folder you want to share.
To further refine user access, click Add {+} at the bottom of the Users list and select a user from Users & Groups (accounts you have set up in Accounts preferences), Network Users or your Address Book. Or click New Person and enter a name and password to create a sharing account. Select the user from the list and click Select.
After the user is in the list, use the triangles next to the user name to assign privileges for that use user (No Access, Read & Write, Read Only, or Write Only (Drop Box)).
Click Options and select the way you want to share your computer: using AFP, FTP, or SMB.
If Windows users will connect to your computer to share files, make sure SMB is selected, select the On checkbox next to the name of the account that will share your computer, and enter the password for that user.

I can no longer type after typing a URL and autocomplete not finding a matching URL. How to fix that?

After I open Firefox I start typing the URL. After each letter I see autocomplete suggestions. Imagine I type "g", then "o" (google is shown as autocomplete), but then I enter "a". Since I have no pages that begin with "goa", autocomplete is hidden and the problem is, I can no longer type anything. All my key strokes are now ignored (backspace, enter... it dosen't matter). But I still see the cursor blinking after "goa".
I have discovered that Firefox must be focused on some other interface element (not in the address bar), because if I press the TAB key, the focus is again shifted to the address bar and I can continue typing. Sometimes I have to press TAB 2 or 3 times while entering an address to be able to write what I want. It looks like every time autocomplete is closed, the program focus leaves the address bar.
I've been having this problem for at least 4 or 5 versions of Firefox and it does not happen on every Firefox session. It can be solved by closing Firefox and opening it again. Pressing the TAB key has become kind of a reflex, so it's just annoying and I can work around it.
But why is this happening?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

I can no longer encode a sequence in PP CC after the Dec 2013 update

II have had to shut down and restart PP CC about 5 times when just creating a very simple sequence of clips from a family get together for Thanskgiving. I had to shut down since everything just quite responding. Fortunately, when I reopened the project, I could resume. I finally got my sequence created, but, now I can't export the sequence. The encode has failed 8 times in a row. I've tried direct export, and exporting to the AME queue. Sometimes I get the error sound and the absolutely useless error message "Error compiling movie. Unknown Error." Other times it just stops making any progress in the encode with no message at all, but there are zero CPU cycles being consumed by PP or AME. It just plain stops, wiht no eror message. That happened 3 times when used the Media Queue approach, and in the preview window in AME, it just stopped encoding at very different places in the sequence.
It appears as though I can no longer encode a movie. And I'm paying big bucks for this every month? What a sap.
I'm glad I'm not a Pro, whose income and life depends on these tools! But, I have a full time job, and only a very small amount of free time. I do not want to spend my small amount of free time as an Adobe Beta Tester. I've been using Adobe tools for years, which is why I signed up for CC, but...at this point: I can't even encode a simple sequence!
I can't express my disappointment. I wanted to be loading the encoded MP4 onto VIMEO for my friends and family to see by now, but.....I can't even encode a very simple sequence. And, I not a newbie. I have hundreds of videos on VIMEO, and many more on Youtube and Smugmug. Every one was produced with Adobe PP (from v4 on).
But now: I'm dead in the water.
I gurantee you that i will not 're-up' when my CC subscription expires, and, I guess right now, I have to start from scratch with my raw clips and find some other tools to use? I wish all my expensive plug-ins (like MB Suite) would work in whatever the tools I will move to...but...I guess I'll just have to write them off as a loss, just like the next 8 months of paying for my Adobe CC Software that no longer works.
I wish there was a way I could take the Thanksgiving Project and its sequences I've created in PP CC and convert the Project to PP 6.0, since I never had any issues with it PP v6.0.
But, from what I understand, if you make a project in PP CC, you are lost. You can't go backwards.
And, you know what? I'm done. I quit. I won't even try starting over in PP 6.0. I'm going to find some other tools. I know they won;t be as full-featured as Adobe's, but...I'm not a pro. I just need something that works reliably.
Disgusted beyond words.

PS: So, does Adobe have any kind of disaster recovery plan when an update like this fails? Can you please send out a "new update" that rolls me back to the prior version on PP CC?

OK. I have successfully encoded this very simple sequence, but, I *can't* get it to encode using my "standard" custom H.264 preset that I have been using for years.
But, I was not able to encode in many plain vanilla codecs either, but, I got a notice that there was a CC update for AE, so I took the time to install those updates, and, as I always do, I re-booted after the update of AE.
But, of course I had re-booted a couple times last night when I couldn't get the sequence to encode. That's somethinf I always try b4 writing to a form.
So, here's the sequecne of events this morning:
1) Try to encode sequecne to uncompressed AVI (Cineform AVI 1920x1080). It SUCCEEDED. But, even though the AVI was large > 3.6 GB the quality was horrible, I did not pay much attention to the quality settings.
2) Try to encode to Quicktime H.264 codec. FAILED.
3) Try to encode to Quicktime Codec=Uncompressed 4:2:2. FAILED
4) CC UPdate notice for AE CC and AE 6.0
5) Perform update
6) Reboot
7) Try to encode to Quicktime Codec=Uncompressed 4:2:2. SUCCEEDED - but ENORMOUS FILE SIZE *very nice quality though* :-)
8) Try to encode to Quicktime Codec=H.264. SUCCEEDED.
9) Try to encode to my 'usual' H.264 Preset FAILED, just hung up during the 2nd of two passes. My preset is a VBR with 2 passes, see bitmap below. In this particular case it got 'hung' at this frame. But, It never 'hangs' in the same place?
So, I don't know why I was able to encode the sequence using the Quicktime Wrapper and botn Uncompressed and H2.264 Codecs after updating AE CC and rebooting, but not before. Surely there is no interaction between AE and AME?
But, the re-boot should not have caused it alone, since I had rebooted several times last night, and I've installed nothing but the new update for AE since last night?
So, I guess I'm OK now. Please excuse my tone last night, I was very frustrtated.
It is interesting that I still can't encode this particluar sequence using my "standard" H.264 preset.
And, BTW Jim: What I mentioned in my previus post was not that I had brought and old PP 6.0 sequecne into CC and encoded it successfully, but that I just re-encoded one of my most complex sequences AGAIN in PP 6.0, just to wanted to make sure nothing was haywire with "good old" PP 6.0.
But, I did just re-encode a sequence from PP CC from before the Dec 13 update using my "standard" H.264 preset, and...yes...it DID encode.
SOOOOO...Jim, you were correct. My inability to encode was not due to the DEC 13 PP CC update, but something very peculiar about this one sequence. But, it is a very simple sequence. The only effects applied is some light color grading using MB Colorista, and Warp Stabilizer to a stabilize a few hand held shots. No other effects. And...the encode that fails using my standard preset, never fails at the same frame.
But...at this point I'm OK. Instead of an encoded file in MP4 I have an ecnoded H.264 rendition in the QuickTime MOV wrapper. At least I've got that sequence done and can move on to the ton of others I need to get to (without having to learn an entirely new tool). :-)

Since system update, can no longer save photos or access galleries

I received and installed a system update yesterday. Now, I can no longer access photos or save any photos. Most of the time, when I press the camera button, I get a message that says "Sorry! The process androoid.process.media has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." I also get this message when I go to settings, about phone and it happens at random times, like when I'm checking email or texting.
A couple of times I've been able to get the camera open and take a photo, but after I save it, when I go to gallery, it says there are no photos or videos to show.
I thought all of my photos had been deleted, but I was able to plug my phone into the computer and copy them, so they are there on the phone somewhere.
I tried restarting, removing and reinstalling the sd card, and installing a brand new sd card. Nothing has helped.
How can I fix this?

July a Hard Reset or FR is a factory Reset what it does is takes your phone back to when you bought it new at the store an to get to were you do the hard reset you need to Hit menu > Settings > then Sd An phone Storage an scroll all the way to the bottom were you will see Factory Data Reset but dont Tap on it . Unless you know how to do the FR.
Since your new to doing a Fr Call Verizon go to option 3 or Technical support on a landline phone or a cell phone other than the one that needs the FR Tell them you have the Original Incredible an you need to perform an Fr an they'll help U go thru the steps.
Now you'll have to back up your contacts they'll tell you how to do it an if bought any apps they'll be save you free apps you need to write them down on a peice of paper so you know what you had an can re enter them.
but a wildman said this will help the phone. Good Luck an let us know if it help ya.! B33
P.s Don't unmount your card an don't " format" it.! if you do you'll loose you pictures an Music. as they're on the Card

Can No Longer Edit Song Meta Data In Latest iTunes 11.1???

I just discovered that since the update to version 11.1 I can no longer manually edit the meta data by using the Show info function, all options are greyed out. For instance I can no longer adjust the volume level on a song nor can I edit the fields for song title and artist tec. There is also no longer any tab for album art when using the Show Info function on a song that has no album cover art. On songs that already have an album cover there will be an album art tab but the options there are all greyed out so I can not change the album cover art if I wanted too. This really *****, I can no longer edit album cover art for songs that have another cover already and I can not add any cover picture at all for songs that have no cover art (unless I manage to get the cover from the iTunes store but that is very often not successfull).
Another bug I found is that I can no longer add any video file to my playlists.
So this new update really ***** for me and have ruined my itunes experience.
Do anyone else in here have the same problem?
I really hope Apple will fix these bugs as soon as possible!

I think I finally found a solution to this problem. It appears that for some reason, some songs you download will maintain write protection that the original owner had set on his/hers computer. In my case for this Ellie Goulding album that I had problem with, it turned out my friend who gave it to me had some of the songs stored on his iPad and that caused the files to become write protected it seems, and this write protection was transfered over to my PC. To solve this issue, everytime you encounter a song in iTunes that you can not edit just right click it and select Show/View In Explorer, that will take you to the storage location of the file in question. Now right click the song and select Properties and see if it is write protected, if it is then just uncheck that option and click ok. Now you should be able to edit the meta data for that song again. So it appears this is not a bug in iTunes but rather a write protection issue.

Can no longer print to shared printer on mac running 10.5

We have an old G5 that we use to share a printer between various macs all running 10.9. I recently upgraded the G5 to 10.5 to see if that helped with some issues we had, but now that we can no longer print to the printer.
What I have done so far:
#1 Updated the printer drivers on both 10.5 & 10.9 macs.
#2 Reset printing System on both 10.5 & 10.9 macs.
#3 Readded the printer to the 10.5 Sys Pref > Print & Fax using actual driver
#4 Readded the printer to the 10.9 Sys Pref > Print & Fax
If I do the last step by using "Add printer or scanner" option...
...but use the Generic Postscript Driver I get: Looking for Printer > Connected to Printer > then the error "Stopped on server [G5's name] - No pages Found!". The job does appear on the G5 in the printer queue.
...but use the actual driver I get: Looking for Printer > Connected to Printer > then the error "Stopped on server [G5's name] - Unable to write uncompressed document data: Operati...". The job does appear on the G5 in the printer queue.
If I do the last step by selecting the printer under "Nearby Printers" I get "Unable to download the software from the server at his time".

There are some differences in sharing but it will work. I have a G4 that I use as a server, too.
First, tell me what printer model. There are driver differences, too.
At the heart, CUPS (the print control subsystem) uses IPP as the print sharing protocol. That part hasn't changed. So I recommend, for troubleshooting, setting up the printer on the client using IP printer > IPP protocol.
Here's a guide:
1) On the 10.5 print server, use a browser and point it at the CUPS admin web page athttp://localhost:631
Go to Printers list and find the queue name from the left side of the page next to the printer you want. Also note the IP address of the server Mac.
2) On a client, Add the printer as an IP printer > IPP protocol, and enter the IP address and queue name you noted above.
3) Select the generic postscript driver (on client Mac)
(after reading your second post, I want to remind you to set the server to use the correct driver.)
Finish and try it.

Can no longer connect to ASA 5505 (serial or ssh)

I have an ASA 5505 running software version 8.0(4) that I picked up a while back. I had just finished configuring it via the serial console. I confirmed that DHCP addresses we're being pushed out on the VLANs, made a couple of minor tweaks, and confirmed that I could ssh into the ASA on the appropriate VLAN. After that I issued a write to save the config and took the firewall downstairs to replace my cheap little router.
After hooking it up, I started checking my machines only to discover that none of the machines on any of the vlans were getting IP addresses. I assigned a static IP on the VLAN with management access but I still couldn't connect to it. A packet capture showed zero traffic coming from the ASA. I grabbed the ASA and hooked it back up via a serial console but now I can no longer connect to it. The power & status lights are on. Plugging in cables turns the link lights on in front and back and they flash indicating activity. When I unplug the ASA I see a single odd character show up in putty over the serial connection.
I'm out of ideas. Is there anything else I can do?
Thanks.

Step three of the password recovery option says, "During the startup messages, press the Escape key when prompted to enter ROMMON," but that pre-supposes that I'm seeing some output on the serial console. I'm seeing nothing at all (until I turn off the ASA then I see a single odd character).
Despite not seeing the usual console output, I've tried hitting repeatedly Escape as indicated but I'm still not getting any output. I've even tried other baud rates.
Thank you for the suggestion. Other ideas?
