"Check Input Output Prompt" when trying record master.

Been going through the ringer on Print to Video w Final Cut Express 4 to my Canon XHA1 1080i. Finally got rid of the "Transcoding to HDV" prompt after converting file to QuickTime and changing my sequence settings. My VCR signal set up is correct (checked w Canon) and my firewire cable is fine. Still receiving "Check Input Output" when I go to record on camera. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

It's been seven (7) days since I filed a suport case, no reply from WD...The way this is going the drive will soon end up at a recycling station after it has been smashed with a hammer. :-(Which means I will be in the market for a non-WD NAS very soon, they don't seem to support their customers very well. Buggy firmware, ages between fixes, inability to actually upgrade, and lack of support. Disappointed to say the least.

SOLVED: Getting an Input/Output error when accessing certain files

My system started failing a few days ago because of sudden Input/Output errors when trying to access certain files. It was running fine until various applications started crashing like for example Pidgin (in retrospect probably because of DBus crashing). I decided to reboot and now can't login anymore because the DBus module fails to load which in turn means that HAL doesn't load either and so I can't use my keyboard to login.
The error message I get from DBus is that it can't access the file /etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.conf because of an Input/Output error. I tried to fix/see what was wrong using the arch livecd. Because I thought my problem had to do with a pacman update that had failed before I'd rebooted, I updated my system and I noticed that when pacman tried to access other files it came back with the same error message. The files seemed pretty random, one of them was fakeroot.conf and then several library files like libfaad (sorry this is kind of vague but I'm away from home right now and can't go online very often so I'm writing this from memory).
I'm guessing its a hard drive problem because checking the filesystem for errors came back with nothing. I was just wondering whether anyone had any other ideas before I go and reinstall. I'm going back home tomorrow so I'll be able to follow any advice/reinstall then.

UPDATE
It seems to be fixed! The second run of e2fsck fixed some more issues and the files that were causing the problems earlier seemed to have bad inodes. Boots fine now and I can get into my system. I checked and I still have a reasonable amount of free space so I don't think that was the reason ... I have no idea how the filesystem got so corrupted out of nowhere.
A few things are different, for example, it asked me to unlock the keyring and I couldn't mount my external encrypted drive anymore and had to do it manually with cryptsetup. e2fsck made quite a few changes so I imagine it's due to that. Shouldn't be to hard to fix though.
Thanks for your help!

Getting an error message that unable to check for software update when trying to download new iOS 8.0.2 update ?? Can someone help ???

Getting an error message of unable to
check for software update when trying to update to
ios 8.0.2. Can someone help ??

Howdy there otss1979,
It sounds like you are unable to download the iOS 8.0.2 update either, over the air, or using iTunes. If you are updating the software on your phone in Settings > General > software update I would recommend starting with this article:
Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update
If you are using iTunes, I would use this article instead:
Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
If you are getting a specific error number, the following article will help you get that resolved:
Resolve iOS update and restore errors
If this does not resolve the issue, could you please write the error message you are getting word for word for me?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

1. Open an internet browser type printer's IP address.
2. Should bring you to the printer's status page.
3. Select the networking tab at the top.
4. Left hand side select IPv4 under wireless.

Error ORA-12560 prompts when trying to log in to the Enterprise Manager

Hi all,
I am a newbie to Oracle.
Just installed the Oracle 9i Database Enterprise Edition (9.0.1) into Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition. Problem is encountered when trying to log in to the Enterprise Manager Standalone mode using either system/oracle or scott/tiger as credentials. Error "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error" prompts.
I tried to check with some configuration and see whether the services are started. Services of "OracleOraHome90TNSListener" and "OracleServiceORCL" have been started and the database exists in the dedicated directory. Environment variables of "ORACLE_HOME" and "ORACLE_SID" have been added manually as the SID is set to orcl, which I just follow what the instruction manual has stated. Moreover, I can't get access using command prompt typing "svrmgrl"; error returned stating " 'svrmgrl' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
Another information is that there is no domain set in my server. Just a server with a name being assigned in a workgroup.
Hence, would you mind please advice me what to do in order to get access into the Enterprise Manager? It's quite an urgent task.
A million thx in advance!
Best Regards,
Karen

Hi Jigneshrp,
Thanks for your reply.
It is checked that the listener is running and TNS name service exists. Following your advice, I did create a new listener and another name service and use them, but the same error turns out when trying to log in to the Enterprise Manager again.
Additional information to take note for is that while reconfiguring the existing listener or creating a new listener, a mesage prompts stating "The information provided for this listener is currently in use by other software on this computer. You can proceed with the configuration as it is, but it will not be possible to start this listener until the conflict is resolved. Would you like to continue with the continue with the configuration anyway? Yes/No".
As for the reconfiguration or the new creation of TNS names service, when I am trying to test for the connection, the results in the details pane states that "Connecting... ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. The test did not succeed...."
Would you mind pls advice me on these?
Furthermore, there exist 2 questions I am wondering is that it is stated in the instruction manual that prior to the installation, a static IP should be specified for it instead of the DHCP one; hence, I wanna ask after the complete insallation, is it that the server should be running in the network, i.e. allow it to get connected with the outside network?
2nd question is that can Oracle 9i Database Server Standard Edition (9.0.1) be installed under a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and just a Window XP Professional?
Thanks for your reply.
Best Regards,
Karen

Master-detail: check changes in detail when navigation in master

Dear friends,
forms 6i oracle 9i.
I have a master and a detail block, changes in detail block can only be made in a non-database-field.
For saving a procedure do_save is called where values from non-database-fields are calculated and then put into database field.
For realizing that any changes where made I created another non-database-field in a control block which is set to 1 in when-validate-item-trigger of detail.non-database-field.
When closing the form I simply check the status of my control.item und if necessary call the dó_save procedure.
I now want to have same functionality when navigating through master-block, for example with key-down.
I tried to use the master on_populate_detail trigger:
--snip
do_check_item_changed;
IF ( (:EVM_A_ARTIKEL.H_MANDANT is not null) or (:EVM_A_ARTIKEL.ABTEILG_ID is not null) or (:EVM_A_ARTIKEL.ARTTYP_ID is not null) or (:EVM_A_ARTIKEL.ARTIKEL_ID is not null) ) THEN
rel_id := Find_Relation('EVM_A_ARTIKEL.EVM_A_ARTIKEL_EVM_JN_A_L');
Query_Master_Details(rel_id, 'EVM_JN_A_L');
--snip
but at this time the detail block seems to be empty.
Has anybody an idea where's the right place to put my
checking procedure?
Thanks for help
Silke

Hallo,
Do you mean this?
relation type Join
detail datablock evm_jn_a_l (this block
itself is based
on a join)
join condition EVM_JN_A_L.H_MANDANT = EVM_A_ARTIKEL.H_MANDANT AND
EVM_JN_A_L.ABTEILG_ID = EVM_A_ARTIKEL.ABTEILG_ID AND
EVM_JN_A_L.ARTTYP_ID = EVM_A_ARTIKEL.ARTTYP_ID AND
EVM_JN_A_L.ARTIKEL_ID = EVM_A_ARTIKEL.ARTIKEL_ID

Connecting Garage Band to Mbox. It's now in input/output, but no sound, recording or visual gain in volume. How do I fix this?

That's it. I followed instructions in a PDF provided by avid (pro Tools) that was very helpful for GB and 3rd party. If you need the link let me know.
But....
Even though "digidesign Mbox 2" shows up now in the input & output...there is still no sound from the headset on the MAC, no visual peaks or volume showing on the recording gain meter and when I hit record, nothing records. How can I fix this????
Seems like a lot of questions regarding the mbox. I would think there would be a "how to" that's easy to follow, as we're all in the same boat. Any leads on this too?
G

In garageband preferences choose the mbox as input and the computers built in output for output. Use a real or guitar track. Choose the correct input channel and turn on monitoring in the track info window. Make sure track is record enabled.
Make sure the gain is turned up enough on the mbox.

I get an input/output error when i try to restore a functioning backup from my external harddrive to my new internal harddrive through disk utility?

my hardrive Had a smart status warning so i made a backup of it on my external harddrive through disk utility. i checked to make sure that the backup was working and i had no problems with it. i then bought a new internal harddrive and swaped it out but when i was in recovery mode to try to restore my new hardrive i kept getting an error message saying restore error, input/output error

The big dilemma with a new Internal drive is separating Drive operation from 'inside the MacBook' operation. If you had an External Enclosure, you could do all the work (including booting up from the new drive) using the External enclosure.
Then if a know-good drive develops problems only when moved inside the MacBook, it is time to try a replacement cable.

Disk Utility - Input/Output error when creating disk image

Hello!
A few days ago I was unable to turn on my Macbook Pro, and was stuck on the white screen. I've been searching around quite a lot on this forum, and before I try fixing anything, I REALLY need to back-up my files! I just bought a 2TB hard-drive, which I have partitioned to GUID and Mac OS Extended (Journaled), (it perfectly works on another Mac).
I now want to attempt to create an image of my harddrive (Macintosh HD) onto my external drive (which is empty). I've tried doing this both in 'read-only' and in 'compressed', but about halfway through, I receive a message saying "Unable to create 04/2014 backup.dmg (Input/Output) error".
I saw on another similar post that I might want to install DiskDrill or DataRescue. I'm fairly sure this is impossible for me to do, since my screen is completely white, and I'm unable to access my desktop.
I can only access Disk Utility through pressing command+R when starting my computer. Hence, I need to successfully back up my files through Disk Utility...
I'm aware that my HD may be corrupted since this is happening, but there must be a way for me to put an image on my external HD?? A few days ago, when I clicked on Repair Disk it said "Impossible to repair: invalid node structure". But now, it says that "Macintosh HD appears to be OK". I have no idea what's changed... And I can still not start my computer past the white screen...
I'm very bad with IT and computers, and have extensively tried to fix this on my own, but I'm now stuck here, with this "input/output error"...!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
PS: I do not have Applecare, this is an old computer from 2009.

Thanks for your answer.
Yes, I thought that might be the case - but I'd taken my Mac and Logic disks to a Genius bar, and the 'Genius' had said he'd fixed the issue. I just wish he'd explained what he did and why he didn't replace the faulty disk(s)!
But is there any way around having the claim a disk, now I'm living abroad and my 'warrantee' has run out? It's going to be a pain in the fundament trying to claim a replacement set.

"input/output error' when making disc image from DVD

I've had problems installing Logic, and a Pro Apps Genius at Applecare suggested I try making an image of the problematic DVD (Audio Content 1) and then trying an install that way.
While I can make an image of the Install disc to my desktop fine, the Audio Content 1 disc reports an "input/output error".
This means I'm unable to copy the disc and then successfully install my Logic Studio.
Any ideas?

Input/output error when copying a DVD

I created A DVD some time ago using Roxio. It plays in DVD Player on my Mac Pro, but I can't create a .dmg using Disk Utility. I always get "Input/Output error". I got the same result on my wife's newer Apple. I tried to Restore it but can't, and Verification shows no problems that I can see. I am able to copy DVDs created on Final Cut Express just fine. Any suggestions to help me create copies of an old DVD I love?

I just figured out how to get around the problem. Download Burn and use it to burn the VIDEO_TS file to a new disk. It must be something that Apple adds to make it hard to copy DVDs made from non-Apple software.

Hard Drive "Input Output" Error When Attempting to Format

A friend just gave me a nice PowerBook that seems to be in need of a fresh OS and when attempting to format the hard drive I am getting an "Input Output" error. Any suggestions to overcome this issue and format the drive?

Hi all,
I'm having similar issues on a white macbook (2006 model). I ran into some trouble with it about a month ago, when on booting up, it showed only the folder with a question mark. Booting up from the original grey install DVD worked, so I thought the problem was most likely a faulty hard drive.
It's only after having this problem, that I came across this recall for possible faulty hard drives, that Apple offered:
http://www.apple.com/support/macbook/hd/repairextension/
Doh! Too late?
So, I got onto ebay and picked up a deal and received my new hard drive yesterday. I swapped out the original 80GB with 320GB, only to find the same input/output error described by the OP, here (also in a couple of other Apple discussion posts - see below).
Disk utility shows the new hard drive to be 2.3TB in size! Should be 320GB - but, this is also what others have described. See e.g.,:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16090313#16090313
I've run the extended testing from the CD (holding down 'D' on boot-up) and it reported no problems. Also, similar to others experiences:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16081818#16081818
So, what can the problem be?!?!?!?!?
In this post, JMPC suggests it has something to do with the size of the new internal hard drive....groan.....:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16145560?tstart=0#16145560?tstart=0
Can anyone confirm this?
