CI and QE not listed on System Profiler

Hi All, I just picked up a MBP 15" 2.4Ghz, NVidia 8800M GT 256M ram, Model A1226 late 2007/early 2008. It has a few very small vertical lines down the left side. I took it to the Apple store to check the GPU out and it passed. While looking at posts here and Google, it was suggested to disable Quartz Extreme. So I looked at System Profiler and Core Image and Quartz Extreme are not even listed.
NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT:

Could the previous owner have disabled them? How do I get them back?
Any help,

Just found my answer...Since ALL Intel cpu's support Quartz Extreme, it is no longer listed on a Snow Leopard Mac. The same is true for Core Image.

Why are applications not listed in System Profiler?

Hi Apple Support Community,
System Profiler -> Software -> Applications displays "No information found." instead of the expected list of 64bit / 32bit applications installed. What could cause this and how can I get System Profiler to rescan the applications installed?
Thank you,

Discussion thread http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11077939 suggests Applications are not displayed in System Profiler because I purposefully disabled Spotlight for performance reasons and the indexing of external drives.

L3 Cache disabled, non-functional or not listed in system profiler?

I have a 15" 1 ghz powerbook G4 titanium, and for as long as I can remember, the 1 MB L3 Cache it's supposed to have is not listed in the system profiler. It fails the power-on self test in OS 9, as well as the Apple Hardware test CD. IS there any way of investigating this? The machine seems to run okay, but i'm sure it's hindering the performance of it somehow...

Hi Les,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
As far as "investigating" goes, you've done all you need to; three separate sources all indicating the same L3 failure is pretty solid evidence.
I'm sure you're correct that it affects performance; unfortunately, cache is soldered onto the logic board, so beyond replacing the logic board, there's nothing you can do. If you've lived with it this long, I'd continue to live with it and put the LB replacement money toward your next machine.

Removing an account not listed in System Preferences Accounts?

Somehow I inadvertently created a second account on my iMac that shows as an option at startup. I think I did this with the startup disc somehow. It's not listed in System Preferences>Accounts. How do I get rid of it?

I tried the terminal command first. It returned this line:
dsebableroot: Command not found.
I then tried the instructions after the link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1528?viewlocale=en_US
"Click the Finder icon in the Dock.
From the Go menu, choose Utilities.
Open Directory Utility.
Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
Choose Disable Root User from the Edit menu."
However in the Edit menu, "Disable Root User" is not an option. "Enable Root User" is.

G$ FW800 stock optical drive not seen in System Profile - is it daid?

I added a USB PCI card (2.0) to my FW and shifted some files (Migration Assistant) to my FW by Firewire from an eMac and then I wanted to run Diskwarrior to sort it all out. My CDW/DVDR wouldn't open, either with the eject key or through Toast. Not recognized in Toast. Not recognized in System Profile either. I reset the PMU (cause I can), then tried to boot the DW CD from a Firewire LaCie drive. No good. I finally got the CD to start the FW by using "alt" on startup and waiting for it to find DW but after running all the tests, my drive still seems to be dead. Any more resets or something I can try?
Also, I took the card out and tried again but no good. Are the circuits for the drive and PCI somehow related? Did I cook a controller or something?
Guys, what's the scoop? or is it poop?

Ok, that's it. I read a few posts in the "...SuperDrive won't accept my CD.." section. and it seems some people are just swapping optical drives like mad, ready to accept that the kit is crap, and "...oh, well, I sure hope this one works better...".
But one guy had the brains to have a look inside. Turns out dust had accumulated in the drive and on the connectors, and when he cleaned them, and unplugged and replugged them, it worked fine. So that's what I did. Took it out and put it back in. Amazing the stuff I cleared out! I also un- and re-plugged the power cable and the data ribbon at the mutha board and bingo!. We have disk, and I can breathe again.
Recommend to others they pretend they've bought a new drive, do a remove and reinstall and be very fastidious. You may not need a new one after all. I just love it that stuff can still be FIXED!
Thanks to Lou and all of you who share your experiences. It's like my brain is suddenly soooo huge...

Replaced Superdrive Not Seen in System Profiler 10.5.1

I just noticed my replaced Superdrive ( Pioneer DVR-111D [Beige Bezel] 'SuperDrive' 16X DVD w/DL + CDRW Burner) does not show in System Profiler under 10.5.1. It did after replacement after using Patch Burn under 10.4.0. Now Patch Burn says that it is unnecessary under 10.5 (Leopard). Also, there is no burn button available with iTunes (08). I don't want to waste a DVD to experiment, so does anyone happen to know anything about this (Mr Totes or any of the resident SD specialists?). Any and all comments would be appreciated.
Thanks, Chris

Hi Chris,
Thanks for posting back with your pioneering (excuse the pun) experience.

SATA HD not recognized in system profiler

Hi, I have just fitted a Sonnet SATA controller card along with a Seagate 500GB harddrive.
Disk Utility recognizes the disk and it mounts.
In System Profiler>PCI Cards the SATA card is recognized but not the Drive is not seen in System Profiler>S-ATA Devices.
Why is this?

Drives connected to PCI controller cards apparently don't show up in Panther's or Tiger's ASP, so that's not an actual problem. Another G4 owner who recently added a Sonnet SATA card posted the same question here.

Hello, Thought I had just downloaded Mountain Lion butcannot find any evidence that it was installed. It is not showing as an icon anywhere and is not listed in downloads and is not listed under purchased apps. Have I just sat here for two hours watching a download that didn't happen? I do have a folder of incompatible software that's all.
How do I know it has been installed?

Hello and thanks. I downloaded the upgrade again after your reply to be sure and I believe all is operating smoothly now. Your reply gave me some confidence. I suspect I should not have clicked on a 'x' symbol soon after the download which may have accidentally deleted something before the download/installation process had been completed. Oops probably all my fault. Birdie39

My 1TB Seagate external USB not recognized by my iMac (intel) in Disk Utility, nor in Finder as well as in Terminal "diskutil list" but it is listed within the System Profile, which includes the location ID of 0xfa400000 / 5. Can the location ID be used to restore the identity of my external USB ?

USB drives show up on list in System Profiler, but not on desktop

Hi, I have a 2.0 USB hub with 2 external USB drives attached, and sometimes they show up on the desktop, sometimes they don"t. When they don't, I can find them in the System Profiler under USB, and when I click refresh, they still show up in the list but don't show up on the desk top, or in the device utility either. Is there some way to get them to "re-appear" on the desk top? I too only have 1 USB port that will run them, but this doesn't make them show up on the DT. Anyone have an idea of what to do?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi, no they don't. If I connect them one at a time, they are fine. Sometimes I can get them to show up, and they stay on the desktop until , for some reason, they disappear and I get a dialog that says this drive was not put away properly . . .. I put the computer to sleep, I unplug the hub, start up the computer, plug in the hub again, but can't find a consistent way to get them to show up!

Optical drive not recognized in system profile after hardware rebuild

This is an old MacBook Pro. Apple call it vintage.
Logic board died, so rather than consign it being a doorstop, I took out the logic board and "cooked" it to reflow the solder. It actually worked!
Just prior to this and just before the logic board completely bit the dust I'd inserted a DVD into the optical drive, where it sat and didn't read, wasn't recognized etc. I was trying to drop back down in OS as Lion was too resource hungry for the old machine, so it was an OS install disk. Panther I think?
So now I've got the logic board working, but I cannot remove the DVD. I tried all the tricks, including Terminal etc. On checking System Profile I noticed that the optical drive isn't even listed now. So my question is, is it possible I missed a connection etc when rebuilding the MBP after replacing the logic board? If so, thoughts on where I should look? Is there a way to "force" the OS to find the optical drive? Any thoughts on what to do?
I can't pull the optical drive as one of the screws is completely stripped and honestly, not sure if the laptop is even worth the cost of a replacement drive anyway.

Ok, that's it. I read a few posts in the "...SuperDrive won't accept my CD.." section. and it seems some people are just swapping optical drives like mad, ready to accept that the kit is crap, and "...oh, well, I sure hope this one works better...".

.bin extension defaults to wrong action and is not listed in options applications tab. I can't change the action.

I recently installed VLC player and it has overtaken my system.
When I click on .bin (ext) files in a Firefox browser window, the default action is now listed as "VLC.bin (default)" and nothing I do can change it. I want the default action to be to download the file and I would like to remove any option related to VLC, since no .bin file should ever be associated with that program.
There is no listing for a .bin extension for VLC (or any other program, for that matter*) in the Options/Applications tab, nor is VLC player the default action for anything listed except .wav files.
I have tried the following:
1. searched the options/applications tab but found nothing.
2. searched "about:config" for any entries with "bin", ".bin", or "vlc" (one at a time) and found nothing.
3. searched the registry for bin extension entries. I found one:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.bin\OpenWithProgids]
"bin_auto_file"=hex(0):
"VLC.bin"=hex(0):
I deleted the key and rebooted. No change.
4. Double checked [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\.. Gabest and Mozilla keys for anything that could be causing this behavior.
Found nothing.
Any help would be appreciated.
*As far as I can tell. However, the applications tab cuts off many of the extension names and the column cannot be extended, so I can't be certain. VLC added 34 extensions to the list (!), most of which default to using the Quicktime plugin 7.6.8.

Thanks jscher2000, I tried your suggestion, but no joy (as expected). None of the extensions were .bin, and in fact, I can't find a single listing for handling the .bin extension in the entire (unfiltered) list.
That's why I'm so confused. Where is Firefox getting the name "VLC.bin (default)" from in the first place?
cor-el, I checked out the link that you posted.
I don't have an entry for "browser.download.pluginOverrideTypes" and the entry "plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types" was empty (default setting).
My bad, but I forgot to mention in my first post that I had also tried renaming the mimetypes.rdf file in my "Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxx.default\" to .old to no avail.
Firefox created a new, almost empty file, but it didn't change the behavior for .bin files. I removed the new file and put the old file back in place after determining that clearing the file did not help, since I am otherwise happy with my current file-type options.
However, since the option to "Always perform this action" is grayed-out, I am looking into the possibility that the website is sending a misconfigured MIME type or is assigning "Content-Disposition: attachment" to the download. What's odd, though, is that I've never had problems getting binary files from the site in the past, and the problem started when the VLC player was installed.
I'll post back after I check into the server header data.
