Cannot get Ex495 to recognize new 2 TB hard drive
I just purchased a new 2 TB Hitachi hard drive, but the home server won't recognize it. I tried to put it in the 3rd and 4th bay, but it just wouldn't work. I did put the drive in a desktop and it works fine, so it's not a hard drive hardware issue itself. Is it a known issue with 2 tb drive with the server?

I am sure it's a formatting problem. I've never done this with a MAC. Had to do fixes and such all the time with the Dells!!! So, my iMAC HD died. I was able to retrieve all the files, music, pict, etc.
Installed 2TB SATA HD. Obviously, I assumed some things. Now I have only 1 GB DDR2 SDRAM What do I have to do to utilize more memory? I can't even update and use iPhoto.
Running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Cannot get back to 10.8.2 because of memory issue.
How much Ram was shown before you installed the drive?

Mac OS wont recognize new Seagate SATA hard drive...
My original seagate SATA 250G drive failed, trying to replace it with a Seagate 2G SATA, booting up snow leapard from the disk, Disk utilities doesn't detect the drive at all, so I can't reformat or partition it. Read some info from seagate, but don't understand why i might need a host adapter card if the computer already had a SATA drive in it already... Any suggestions before I give up? It is an old mac pro, first or second gen, used it all the time and has never failed me until now. Both the broken drive and new drive are internal drives..
You should not need a Host adapter to install a SATA drive in a SATA bay.
But any mis-alignment at any stage can cause the drive connector to hit, rather than engage the backplane connector. The drive connector must fully mate with the connector at the back of the bay.
• You must snug, but not over-tighten the screws at each position with the exact correct #0 Phillips screwdriver to get comparable torque on each screw.
• The drive must then be inserted so that each roof tang catches the correct part of the sled. If one is bypassed the drive will be cocked in the bay and not mate. -
I have changed Apple Id but cannot get Apps to recognize it
I have changed my Apple Id but I cannot get Apps to recognize the change. This is true on my MAC and my iPhone. I input my new Apple Id and it assumes I forgot my password.
Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID. -
We own 5 Apple devices but for some reason I cannot get iTunes to recognize one of the iPads. The other 4 show up just fine and we can sync and do all the stuff we are supposed to do, but this one device is never recognized. I've tried updating the software, reinstalling iTunes, using different ports on the laptop, different cables...just about everything. I have NEVER been able to connect this one device, but all the others are fine. I'm at my wits end. Is there someone out there who can help a relative novice figure out what's going on? Thanks so much!

I cannot get CS6 to recognize my Sony DCR-TRV340 camera for capturing video from that camera. The CS6 capture box keeps putting up a message that capture device is off line. The Sony DCR-TRV340 camera is not listed in the CS6 Device Type list in the CS6 DV/HDV device control settings box of Sony cameras. I've downloaded what I think are the correct drivers for the TRV340, and when I plug the camera into the computer, the computer shows it listed in the devices and printers box, but CS6 will not recognize it. Do I need to install these drivers into a specific folder in the CS6 program? If so, where do I find these drivers in the windows 7 professional operating system, and into which CS6 file folder would I copy them to?
Most camera's are not listed in Device controle, set it to Sony and generic. Yours is very old its a Digital 8 camera (I still got a TRV210). Johns second link wont work with your camera.
You do not need to download drivers nor do you need to install anything. Most likely its the Legacy driver.
Read though this document.

General rule is connect camera to pc wait until windows reconigzes the camera.
Fire up Premiere and capture.
Never connect the camera to pc when the camera is on. -
I cannot get subtitles on my new smart tv. I've read all the solutions online and none of them work. When I try to airplay the BBC i player by mirroring my iphone 4 the subtitles disappear when I change from iphone to apple tv.
That's because the BBC iPlayer app uses basic AirPlay to show the content, this means the original content is sent to the Apple TV for it to decode rather than mirroring the screen of the iPad where the subtitles are added.

How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

SHA-1 - cannot get terminal to recognize the path
I have followed quite precisely the instructions at
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1652
to verify an SHA-1 digest, in this case for the 10.5.6 upgrade. I cannot get Terminal to recognize the path, despite that I have up it in several times with great care!
Any ideas? Your help much appreciated, thanks David AllenHello David;
Using the 'Terminal App' can be quite tricky for sure but I'll walk you through it.
First, open the 'Terminal App' and then type in
/usr/bin/openssl
Now hit the spacebar to add a space.
Then type in
sha1
and hit the spacebar again to add another space.
So now this should be the command line so far
/usr/bin/openssl sha1
Now open the finder and locate the file you want to verify. It's probably in your downloads folder. Once the file is located, Click & Drag it into the 'Terminal App' and release it. Bingo! The 'Terminal App' will have the correct path to the file and should verify it after you press the 'return' key. (Note: Any spaces in the file name, the 'Terminal App' will pad them with a backslash "\". Example File Name: +"My File.txt"+ becomes +"My\ File.txt"+ ). So +Don't Panic+ if you see any backslashes.
Now the command line should be something like this ...
/usr/bin/openssl sha1 /Users/David/Downloads/MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.6.dmg
Good Luck & Happy Holidays.

I cannot get Siri to recognize my contacts. Other functions of Siri work eg. what is the weather, how do I get home, where am I.
Anytime I ask it to call, text, email any contact name it says it cannot find them in my contacts?If it says "Delivered" under it to begin with, then you're not sending it as an MMS, you're sending it as an iMessage. It's entirely possible the problem is on the receiving end.

How do I get my MacBook Pro to recognize my Toshiba external hard drive?
How do I get my MacBook Pro to recognize my Toshiba external hard drive? I'm working on transferring my music from our home computer to my new laptop and I already got all my music onto the hard drive but now, when I plug it into my MacBook Pro, it doesn't recognize it. There isn't an icon that pops up and nothing happens at all. The blue light on the hard drive that indicates that it knows it is plugged into something comes up but that's about it. Someone told me I might have to "format" it but I don't know what that means and I don't know how to do it. I just want to get my music from the hard drive to my laptop so please help!

I don't know about your first question... I went to finder, preferences, then general but I didn't see anything for the hard drive.
Huh, in the Finder menu, Preferences, you will see this:
Nope, disk utility cannot see it. I've tried unplugging it and plugging it back in but it still won't recognize it.puter that's a Mac...
If DU cannot see it then the preferences is just an academic exercise.
If this is a USB drive then as mentioned above you may need a powered USB hub since there may not be enough power from the USB to run the drive. What else do you have plugged into the USB ports? If there's some stuff you can unplug it then do it and see if your drive mounts.
What do you mean from a Windows machine? It's a Toshiba hard drive and I put my music on it from my home computer that's a Mac...
Which is all I wanted to know, i.e., whether the drive came from a Winows machine. So it's been formatted and created on a mac. Therefore it should mount on this other mac machine. So it most likely is a power problem. -

My new 24in imac doesn't recognize my usb external hard drive- snow leopard
i was attempting to do a new time machine back up on my new mac but it won't recognize the usb external hard drive (kaser 250gb). i used it frequently on my old g5 imac, no problems. i plugged the hard drive into my g4 ibook and it recognized it right away. i followed the apple tip of pulling the power plug out of the wall power socket and pulled all the usb cables out as well (i have the wireless keyboard). i let it rest for over 5 minutes and only plugged in my wacom stylus and usb external hard drive. still nothing. and it doesn't show either in disk utility. i also downloaded as per another thread the 3g ntfs system preference but to no avail. the only thing i can of doing is erase and reformat my external on my ibook, but i don't want to risk loosing the data without a back up.
anything else i can try? (before i buy time capsule) thanksi just checked again by plugging the external into my ibook g4 and checked how it was formatted - mac os extended (journaled).
Then the 3GFS software is not required at all.
i have an idea, not sure if it will work and it will have to wait a couple days until i get my firewire back from a friend, but this is what i'm thinking: my intel imac has a 1tb hard drive. could i use target mode between my imac and ibook? with my ibook i'd attach the external hard drive, then using the firewire and target mode start it up. hoping that the ibook hard drive and the attached external hard drive would show on my intel mac for which i could copy over the external back ups onto my imac. once completed, i could erase and reformat the external on my ibook and then try again on my imac to see if it appears on my desktop. do you think this might work (even though it is correctly formatted already?)
I use Target mode on a regular basis for mounting the internal drive on a Mac to transfer or salvage data. I don't know if you will be able to connect to an external drive on the Target computer. There's not usually any reason for this and I don't know if the Target Mode will enable the Logic board to deal with the USB ports and transfer data. I kinda doubt it, but other more experienced users can jump in here.
I don't think the problem with your external drive is the format, since you've already checked it and it is already formatted for a Mac. Intel Mac's will mount drives formatted by a PPC Mac with no problems, unless your OS doesn't support the chipset in the USB case that connects to the drive. There are some USB drives that are known to not work well with SL but worked fine with Leopard.
You can buy a cheap USB case (about $30) and move the drive from the old case to the new case, or buy a USB to IDE adaptor cable (about $20), or you can buy a larger external drive that will work on the iMac and use the G4 to transfer the date from the old drive to a new one. Or you can take both drives to a friend with a Mac and use Disk Utility to restore the USB drive to a partition on the Firewire drive. That doesn't fix the USB drive to work with your new Mac, but unless the vendor comes out with a firmware fix, I think that's a lost cause anyway.
other than the above, i may just go buy a 1tb time capsule,
I would not be getting a Time Capsule to back up a single computer. Wireless backups are a lot slower than FireWire or USB (of course, it's the initial backup that takes so much time). If you do have several Mac's that need a TM backup volume, then the Capsule can help you out. It is supported by Apple (and there are a lot of users here in the forums). I'm using a ReadyNAS device for network backups, but it is not supported by Apple, and I have to rely on NetGear for fixes if an OS update breaks my backup system.
BTW, it's a good chance that a TC device will be able to see and mount your USB drive. The incompatible chipset problem with some drives seems to be limited to the USB drivers in SL which the TC is not running. That's why I said that a USB hub may also let you see your drive, the problem is there's no guarantee's... -
Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup. However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails. And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external. Sort of a catch 22. Any ideas?
Is it a USB hard drive? USB hard drives have the problem of not giving full speed if they are hooked up on the same bus as keyboards and mice. Double check your profiler to make sure that is not a problem. If it is Firewire, make sure there aren't other firewire devices in use at the same time. I recommend not only keeping a Time Machine backup, but also a clone, and if you do use Time Machine, to make sure the Time Machine drive or partition is at least twice the size of the original drive.

Hi there,
I was able to format the Toshiba hard drive on my old Mac and copy the Adobe Suite onto it. I followed instructions to format the hard drive to the Retina Mac through Disk Utility, but I still can see the external drive on the new Mac.
Any suggestions…?
