Computer is not Recognizing Compact Flash Cards and Readers
My digital readers are no longer being recognized by my computer. When I plug one of them into a multi-port firewire hub they are not being seen. In the past when I did this iPhoto would open and then I downloaded the photos into iPhoto. Now nothing happens.
Have you considered all relevant suggestions from here?

Windows 8.1 not recognizing Adobe Flash Player and Adobe help not helpful
I have a new laptop with Windows 8.1 64 bit. I tried to view a video and it said I did not have flash player. I went to download adobe flash player and your website said I had it intergrated into 8.1 and that it was either disabled, not the right version or that active X filters needed to be clear. I followed all instructions. Flash was installed with the 8.1 64 bit version. Flash was enabled for all websites and I cleared the active X filter and I still get told that I don't have install flash because it is intergrated and but it does not work. Please help I am in a cycle where Adobe is not helping just sending me in a circle. Thank you
Your problems aren't with Adobe or Flash Player. They're with Internet explorer 11 and Microsoft.
IE11 (Windows 7, 8 & 8.1) has been an abomination since its release October 18, 2013. Yahoo, Facebook, BBC, ESPN and dozens of other sites and domains have had trouble recognizing the Browser. If the site doesn't recognize the browser, it won't recognize any plugins in the browser, including Flash Player. Microsoft was made aware of the problems by millions of users within hours of the release, and so far they've shown no sign that they intend to fix it anytime soon. Their recommendation is to enable Compatibility View for affected pages. Two problems with that are that it's had only limited success, and you must enable it manually for each affected page. Basically, they're telling you to "pretend" you're not using IE11.
I'm not big on "pretending", and I recommend actually using something different. Something that works where IE11 won't.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Chrome (from Google)
Safari (from Apple)
Opera (from Opera)
ANY of those will work where IE isn't recognized, and they use the Flash Player Plug-in (for other browsers), except for Chrome, which has its own plugin embedded in by Google. -

Recently, my computer is not recognizing my iPhone 4 and so it can't sync. What do I need to fix this?
Be prepared to lose everything on your iPhone but it should be backed up in iTunes so you can restore from your backup.

IMac error message with 32Gb compact flash card from Nikon D4
Hi
I have a iMac 2.8Gig core 2 duo running 10.7.4 - I get a error message (the disk inserted is not readable by this computer) when using 32gb compact flash cards from my Nikon D4, have tried bith Sandisk and Lexar cards same error message. However both cards work fine on my MacBook Pro and a Windows machine. If I format the 32Gig card in my Nikon D300 it is recognised on the iMac. So it appears to be the way the Nikon D4 formats the card that the iMac dosen't like, however as I said it's fine in the MacBook Pro.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Macintosh Color Classic Compact Flash Card
Hi All,
So I purchased 6 Macintosh Color Classic's for $15 each with Apple IIe cards and Apple Ethernet cards. They are in excellent condition. They came with 60mb HDs. I would like to upgrade the HD with something bigger. What I would like to get is a SCSI to IDE to Compact Card convertor. I have seen some SCSI to IDE convertors. Ideally I would pop in a Compact Flash Card and partition it. What would really be cool is to remove the internal HD and replace it with a Compact Flash Reader and add a slot in the front so I can swap them out and boot.
Do any of you know of a product that will work and have actually used? I know there are some, but I want to be certain it will work with the Classic.
In the meantime; Would a SCSI 2 Seagate Cheetah drive work with a 50 pin adaptor? I have 7.1 but will go to 7.6.1 as soon as I have a bigger drive.
Thanks,
WillGonzAre you sure you really want to spend a hundred to two hundred dollars on a $15 computer?

The big problem is that the hard drive caddy and adaptor that attaches to the back of the hard drive are not designed with any wiggle room for something in between so you would have to fashion something else for a plate. Then the issue might become whether or not everything will still fit in the slot or line up with the connectors....
I've adapted CF cards to work in Aspire One laptops and unless you pop for the fast $$$ cards these things are dogs so again not sure if that is such a great solution.
RE the adapted SCSI 2 drive same problem as above with the hard drive caddy and the strip that attaches the hard drive to the CC. Personally I would say you are out of luck on this as well.

Booting x4540 with a Compact Flash card
Hi Y'all,
I'm having this weird problem with a brand new SunFire x4540. They have the Compact Flash slot in the back, such that you can install the OS on the card and boot off it, thus allowing you to use all 48 SATA drives in the machine.
In the docs, it says "use only a 8GB or 16GB Compact Flash (CF) Card":
http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4855-12/chap3-pre.html#0_pgfId-1008964
So I'm trying to use a 16GB CF card, a SanDisk Extreme 16GB UDMA CF. But, when I go into the BIOS, I see this (under IDE configuration):
Device: Primary IDE Master
Vendor: SanDisk SDCFX-016G
Size: 0MB <--- This can't be right
LBA Mode: Supported
Block Mode: Not Supported
PIO Mode: 4
Async DMA: MulitiWord DMA-2
Ultra DMA: Ultra DMA-5
S.M.A.R.T.: Not Supported
Now, I can install OpenSolaris on it, it sees it fine during install and no errors are reported during install, but I cannot boot from it, it dumps me to the grub prompt. It makes me suspicious that the BIOS thought it was 0MB big. At grub, I can do this:
grub> geometry (hd0)
drive 0x80: C/H/S = 1024/255/63, The number of sectors = 64528, LBA
Partition num: 0, [BSD/SOLARIS sub-partitions immediately follow]
BSD/SOLARIS Partition num: 'a', zio_read_data failed
Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS
BSD/SOLARIS Partition num: 'c',
Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS
BSD/SOLARIS Partition num: 'i',
Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS
That makes me think that the disk is too big for the BIOS, even though the docs say a 16GB CF should work. Now, we have another x4540 that DOES boot off a 4GB CF. We tried it in the new 4540 and it does work there as well. So: Are the docs wrong, and you must have only a 4GB CF? The BIOS sees the 4GB CF just fine:
Device: Primary IDE Master
Vendor: Kingston 4G
Size: 3.8GB <--- It sees the size
LBA Mode: Supported
Block Mode: Not Supported
PIO Mode: 4
Async DMA: MulitiWord DMA-2
Ultra DMA: Not Supported
S.M.A.R.T.: Not Supported
Or, are only certain CF cards supported? I could not find a list anywhere... I tried contacting Sun Hardware support but no one seems to have any info over there yet. Does anyone here perhaps have any data? Like, which CF cards are supported? From what I gather, Oracle does not sell CF cards anymore and we were asked to buy a 3rd party one, without knowing there would be problems.
Thanks for any insight!
PS- I already upgraded the BIOS to the latest version to try to fix this, but it didn't help...Hello,
We boot 6250 blades in a SUN Blade 6000 chassis with 4GB Kingston compact flash cards, and have no issue. It sounds like the docs are incorrect that the 16GB card is supported, as the BIOS needs to be able to recognize it and does not. Since Solaris or Linux will fit just fine in 4GB, I'd suggest going that route, unless you need it for more than just the OS (like using it for swap as well). -
Hi
My computer is not recognizing my iPod NanoPod - and as a result 'The Devices' section is not showing up in order to sync new Playlists to my Nano-Pod. Any suggestions?
Thank you.What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

My computer is not recognizing my new shuffle
Hi,
My computer is not recognizing my new shuffle and not syncing with it. I had a shuffle before and it just automatically synced. No little ding ding recognition of new hardware sound, no nothing. Help
thanksI had the exact same problem. Then I called for support. I felt like an idiot when I got the solution. Unplug your Ipod shuffle from the computer. Then unplug the power cord from the shuffle. Now replug it into the shuffle. Push very hard. You should hear a click sound. Now try plugging it into your computer again. I hope this helps you.

I have Photoshop Eleent 12 and use a Windows PC. I hae been using a Canon EOS 50D for several years, which uses a Compact Flash Card. I have always downloaded pictures by using a card reader wich I connect to my computer. I Go to the Organizer, click on "Import" and select "From camera or card reader". Once on the Photo Downloader, I select the pictures, chose the folder and click on "Get Media" and all the photos get downloaded. Today I folled the same procedure as always, but ZI'm gettig an error message that reads"Import Failed" followed by another message that reads "Nothing was imported. The file(s) or folder(s) selected to import did not contain any supported file types, or the files are already in this Catalog." I'm puzzled by this message and don't know what to do o get my photos. Any suggestions?
The organizer doesn't care where you send your photos when you download them via the downloader or where they happen to be when you first bring them in if you use the Get Photos command, but once your pics are in the Organizer, you *must* move them from within organizer or it can't find them. You don't have to use My Pictures at all if you don't want to, but regardless of the folder where you put your photos, if you want them someplace else, you use organizer to do it.

how can I get my new ipad 4 to read my compact flash cards? If not, can I download the images directly from my camera?
Tom, thanks for your quick reply. I'm a commerical photographer using Canon 5D mk2's mostly and have in the past just downloaded images to a mac book for backup. I really liked the compact size of the Ipad and just got the retina model with the camera connection kit and seem to be hearing that CF readers can't be used with it b/c they draw too much power. Seems like I remember reading I could use a cord that might have come with my cameras to download directly to the Ipad. I haven't tried it yet as I can't find the connection but then you just said it can't be done?
I'm COMPLETLY lost as to your "first pluging in a flash drive to my computer, advice. Do you mean Ipad when you say computer? "then put your movie/photo files into the folder." HOW????????
Then plug it into the Ipad?????? TOTALLY lost.
Also your saying just "do a google search for a reader doesn't work b/c NONE are able to work with the newer Ipads b/c they use TOO much power or so everyone says everyone that have tried.
Hope you can help a little more b/c I'm really getting frustrated with all the conflicting advice!
Thanks, Dennis [email protected] -
I just bought a mac mini over the weekend. I saved items from my old G4 to an external hard drive. I go to plug in the external hard drive and the new computer is not recognizing it. Help.
Here is the information I have. The external hard drive is a 120GB Acomdata. It has both USB and Firewire. When I go to plug in to the mac mini through USB, it is not being recognized. When I switch to Firewire on the old computer I can see it, however when I go to USB it is not being recognized (even on the old computer).
I'm at a loss as to what to do. Any advice would be helpful.Shalese wrote:
Have you ever tried the FW 400 to 800 adapter?
I have used them on multiple occasions and they work just fine.
Try this (maybe you already have):
-Boot Mini with drive disconnected.
-Do not connect drive but turn it on
-wait a few seconds for drive to spin up
-plug cable into the Mini then into drive.
This is an old drive and may have some timing
issues.
I had an Acomdata drive a long time ago. It
worked fine with FW but USB was flakey. -
I own the iphone 4 and i was using safari and went to google something and my phone froze. My computer is not recognizing my phone when I plug it in, and my charger is not allowing my phone to charge. What can i do to get my phone unfrozen?
Try resetting it: hold the on/off and home buttons 10-20 seconds until you see the Apple logo (ignoring the off slider that appears first), then release. If it won't reset you may need to put it in recovery mode and restore it as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.
