Cdrom doesn't show files

I have a Ultra60 running 2.7 and an Ultra5 running 2.7 and on more than one occassion a piece, I insert a cd, the file manager for the cdrom comes up, but doesn't show the files on the cd. I know the cd works because I try in on another machine exactly like these. I've tried stop/starting vold, doesn't help. Then, after this happens, it somoetimes won't let me eject the cd.....
Whats the deal??
Andrew

Hmm, lets see:
1. Can you access the physical media?
dd if=/vol/dev/aliases/cdrom0 bs=2k count=100 of=/dev/null
should read 100 sectors from the cdrom and copies the
result to /dev/null. No error messages are expected here.
2. Is the volume manager able to identify the filesystem
format of the new cdrom?
fstyp /vol/dev/aliases/cdrom0
fstyp -v /vol/dev/aliases/cdrom0
should print something like hsfs or udfs (and some more
verbose info about the media in the -v case).
3. Is the media correctly mounted?
Check the "mount" or "df -k" output. You should see your
media mounted under /cdrom/....
4. Can you see the files from a command line window?
Open a dtterm, an list the cdrom: "ls -l /cdrom/cdrom0/."
Any files?
5. Any error messages in /var/adm/messages or /var/adm/vold.log?

Ohh thanks guys!
It worked as a charm, and thanks Brisbin33 for the autostart.sh tip.
So the thing that caused my whole system not to work as it should was that I forgot to put a "&" after conky?
haha that´s kinda anoying I have been sitting and looking through like a milllion files looking for the answer
But again, really thanks!
/Neuwerld
that little "&" sends the conky process to the background freeing up the current process (your autostart.sh script) to finish doing what it's doing so you can move on to running openbox itself. with this in mind, it should be obvious why keeping conky in the foreground would cause problems.
also, replacing it with (sleep 1 && conky) & means... wait a second, when that's done successfully (&&) run conky, and put all of that () to the background. that way openbox comes up immediatly and only a second later you've got your panel and monitor.
all this after .xinitrc and before openbox

Finder doesn't show file saved in certain folder

Something very strange is happening to my mac.
In my Documents folder there is a folder named "CV". Whenever I try to save files to this destination (CV), these files won't show (at least immediately --- let's say in the next minutes) in the folder. BUT if I search for them in the finder, here they are! I can find them, open them...
If I save the same files to another location (the Documents folder, the Desktop), they are immediately saved to the specified destination.
Can anyone explain what is happening?

OK, let me give you 5+10 points and mark this problem solved!
Thanks! I think that maybe it'sreally like you said - that some apps maybe prompted and today I noticed that the Finder doesn't, and got confused...

Finder doesn't show file delete warning message

I think that some time ago when I deleted any file or folder in the Finder, it showed me warning message... Now when I select file and press Command+Backspace (Delete), file goes immediately to the Trash without any warning message. Is this correct or there had to be some warning? I looked in Finder's preferences, but couldn't find any check-box for that... If there should be a warning message, how can I restore it?
Thanks in advance!
My system:
Apple PowerBook G4 1.5GHz, 1GB RAM, 64MB ATI Mobility Radeon 9700, 100GB HDD (43GB free), SuperDrive, AirPort, Bluetooth
Mac OS X 10.4.7 with the latest security updates

What search modality? Are you talking about spotlight? If so when you hover over the ouput and the info box opens, hold the option-command key and the file path presents itself at the bootm of the pane.
If it is a search in Finder file path at the bottom of Finder window results.
In no search Finder window you can control click the title of the Finder Window for path or control-click the tool bar and drag the Path icon to the toolbar.
Also Finder>View>show path bar

Finder unresponsive and doesn't show files

Hey Guys,
I've been having this issue for a while now and it is bugging me.
I have Macbook Pro with retina display, after the latest update to OS X Mavericks, my finder started to go unresponsive..it wouldn't show the files in, sometimes have like a gray highlight on the folder name but wouldn't open or show what is in. No matter how many times I relaunch it I still have the issue until I restart my mac..but then soon it will go unresponsive..Any one has the same issue becuase I have never had it since I got my Mac in 2012? any suggestion?
Thanks

Check your Spotlight menu (looks like a magnifying glass in the upper right corner) and see if it says it is indexing.
If it is not, check Time Machine in Apple menu -> System Preferences to see if there is an active backup going on.
Do you have any third party system utilities installed?

Finder doesn't show files that Terminal shows

Running 10.4.4. I have a zip file that expands into a folder containing many subfolders. Finder tells me that the majority of these folders are empty despite the zip file being several MB in size. Opening some, but not all, of the folders forces Finder to tell me what's really there but this doesn't work for all of the folders. I can go into Terminal and see the contents of every folder. What's going on here? This has never happened before. Repairing permissions didn't fix it. It's also happening with other folders not related to the zip file.

Here's an update. The zip file in question contains the latest version of a suite of Java applets that I've been using for some time. The developer just sent me the previous version and the latest version, but the latter was compressed with a different compression tool; he didn't say which one. I moved the two zip files onto my iBook G3 running OS X 10.3.8 and they both unzipped correctly. However, under 10.4.4 only the one compressed with the different compression tool unzipped correctly. This suggests a bug in 10.4.x does it not?

File Browser doesn't show files

I am trying to pull some of my pictures from my Media Hub but can't seem to do it.
All of the pictures show in the Home view but when I go the the File Browser...no files show up in the folders. The folders are on the left but when I click to open any of them there is nothing in them.
I have checked my settings but can't figure out what I am doing wrong....

Check under the "import" folder in the file browser, your pictures might be stored there if you used the import tool.
Cheers.

You can set the default calendar for new events with this info from the iPad iOS 8 user guide:
There are several settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars that affect Calendar and your calendar accounts. These include:
Default calendar for new events
And to add your Gmail contacts to your Contacts in the Menu Bar:
Contacts can manage your contact information from other accounts, such as Facebook and Google. Just add those accounts (choose Contacts > Add Account), and you’ll have access to all your current contact information from anywhere.

Import dialog doesn't show files anymore (not even the ones on the hard drive)

I shoot pictures with a D70 (canon) and i imported them always with no problems. After a update or installation of a external program the import dialog does not show any pictures anymore. It's a black screen. The files can be read from the filebrowser and are regular cr2 files (raw files). What can I do? There are 149 files on the card and non are shown, see below

further in the forum I found this and it did the job
I would suggest you to reset Lightroom preferences and then check the same.

InputFile doesn't show File too large message

Hello,
I've got an inputFile component on my adf page and maximum file size specified in web.xml:
<af:inputFile id="if1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.UploadBean.inputFile}"
   valueChangeListener="#{backingBeanScope.UploadBean.onUploading}"
   autoSubmit="true" simple="true" label="Upload"/>
<context-param>
    <description>Should be 250Mb</description>
    <param-name>org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.UPLOAD_MAX_DISK_SPACE</param-name>
    <param-value>262144000</param-value>
</context-param>When I'm trying to upload a 400Mb file the application gets busy for a couple of seconds and then a red border around inputFile appears.
But there's no message.
How could I specify a userfriendly message?
Like it this post: http://andrejusb.blogspot.ru/2010/12/oracle-ucm-11g-uploading-large-files.html
Upload works fine, this thread is only about "File too large" message.
Thanks.
JDev 11.1.2.3

You are wrong. The file uploading starts in the background. Your listener only gets the stream once it already on the server (either in memory or as a temporary file).
If you use Chrome as a browser you should see that the upload starts, but the processing is canceled once the server finds out about the file size. All this is checked before you get control.
Do a small test and remove the autoSubmit="true" and you'll see the message.

HT1414 ipod doesn't show files/folders on my PC

My PC wont recognise my ipod as a removeable device. The only way I could see it in my devices is if I used a previous driver.
I can see pictures in my ipod I'd like to copy to my computer but when i go to the device on my PC it says my ipod empty.
I've reinstalled itunes, Updated ipod. New cable, different USB ports etc.
Any help please
Cheers

Unless you use a third-party program, The iPod will show up in My Computer but you can only access the DCIM folder which contains photos taken by or saved to the iPod.
Third-party programs are PhoneView, iExplorer and TouchCopy as well as others.

Thanks Barney, I tried that but all that comes up in Spotlight are the log files that show the file paths! I don't know how Steam works. Are all the files held by Steam on their server perhaps?

In Snow Leopard, there was a quick look feature that allowed you to look at files without opening the program. It doesn't show up in Lion on my iMac. Any ideas? Thanks

While in Finder, select the file (click on its icon once) then press the Spacebar.
