In need of an external home network drive, help please...

Hi,
I am in need of an external home network drive in either 1 or 2TB form.
It will be for an imac and macbook pro + ps3 to use.
I saw this Western Digital one but was not sure how good it is -

I would be using it to back up HD final cut pro files a lot as well.
Please help.
Cheers

Finder not showing connected network drives in Devices section

I have a number of network drives on my LAN, some NAS drives, some other Macs and of course a Time Machine. Prior to updating to OSX 10.9.5 when I used finder to connect to one of these shares the name of the connected share used to appear in the Finder Sidebar - under the devices section. Now when I do this nothing appears, although I do get an icon on the desktop and I can still access the remote files.
I have set/reset all the finder view settings from the Preferences panel and also tried deleting the finder and sidebar preferences files without improvement. I do have "Path Finder" installed as well and this still works as normal.
I contacted Apple support and after a hour or so they promised to get an engineer to get back to me sometime this week.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour ?
If Apple don't come up with any ideas I will have to experiment with uninstalling other apps which might indirectly case it, like Path Finder and even Paragon NTFS drivers.
It's not a show stopper, but a rather annoying inconvenience.
Thanks in advance for any replies

Hello birdy.....,
Sorry to take so long responding. Major disaster! My whole wall bookcase just tumbled, and I'm still working at excavating the family (of Macs).
Your card should work. I've used the Acard cards by the dozens without problem, though I've never used that particular 6860 card or set up a RAID ARRAY. Just checked, using a 6880 (RAID) though as a controller card and not as a RAID ARRAY, and found that my 2002 QS Mac would not see a standard hard drive(#2) running OSX (10.2) that had been formatted by the OSX install disk using the stock bus on the motherboard. It would, however, see a hard drive(#3) that had been formatted while connected to an ACARD controller card (6280). I'm guessing that an OSX installer disk is prepared to see and to deal with a SCSI drive, and that Disk Utility is not.
Check that.
Just removed the controller card formatted drive(#3) and re-installed the OSX(10.2) drive(#2); this time my 2002 QS saw it right away, both on the desktop and in disk utility. I guess it needed personal messenger service.
As I recall, I've seen that happen before using controller cards; as a result, I've always taken care to format a new hard drive by connecting it to a controller card if that is the way I intend to use it. Hard drives can be capricious, sometimes. At any rate, try formatting your hard drive(s) with an OSX installer disk (hoping you have one) while connected to the ACARD controller card - just click on erase (twice) and the drive formats automatically.
I'm a little mystified by reference to drivers; never installed any drivers, and always assumed none were needed.
Hope that helps. Check back and let me know.

I made my Ipod think it's a network drive - help!

I've played my personal iPod through iTunes on my work PC without any problems until recently.
Long story short, my Ipod now thinks it's the I network drive. I've confirmed that my songs and videos are still loaded on the iPod. I can't access the songs or videos on the iPod or through iTunes
When I connect it to my home computer and work computer the ipod loads, and is named as "I:\" in Itunes on both machines. In windows explorer on both machines it is (correctly) shown as an E drive and is named "David's Ipod".
So is there a way I can get the iPod to remember what it is - without wiping everything and starting over?
I have found some useful links to articles in this forum, have played about with network settings in Windows Explorer and reset the iPod twice.
All help and suggestions gratefully received.
Thanks.
Dell Windows XP

Sorry, I should have been clearer. The songs are still on the iPod. I can't get the iPod to play them either independently or connected to the computer through iTunes.
I can change the path when the iPod is connected
to the computer but iTunes still won't access the
songs.
iTunes won't access what songs?
I though you were having a problem with the iPod?
When I disconnect the iPod from the computer I
can't access the songs.
You can't access any songs with iTunes?
Or the songs on teh iPod are gone?
When iTunes loads the iPod, it correctly shows the the amount of space used / free space figure I know I have on my iPod. It doesn't list the song names etc. Instead of displaying "David's Ipod" (which is shown in Windows Explorer as an E Drive) iTunes it shows "I". I can't access any songs with iTunes.
When I examine my iPod through Windows Explorer I see all the data files listed.
When I disconnect the iPod there are no songs listed. It's as if it's got no data on it, but I know the data is still there from the file sizes listed on both Windows Explorer and iTunes.

Won't connect to internet, help please

I am back in my apartment at school and they replaced the cable with just another one, almost the same thing, but the problem is that when i connect the cable straight to my CPU it works fine, but when i plug the cable into my airport express it just blinks amber and it shows the connection and even says i am connected but it won't connect to the internet, please help me. my brother will be here tomorrow and i need to get this wireless setup. thanks so much for the help.

Connect the modem to your Airport Express. Then pull power to both for at least five minutes. Then plug power into the modem and wait a minute. Then plug power into the Airport Express and wait a minute. Then try internet access again.

Weird problem involving my external hard drive - help please!

I recently got a formac mini 120 gb firewire hard drive, which had been working fine with my g4 quicksliver.
i then went to a friends (g5 machine) with my drive and he put some data on it - bought it back to mine and managed to re connect the drive and take the data - no problem - very happy.
I recently gave my drive to another friend using a g5 and when it came back, nothing - i don't get the drive symbol appearing. turned the comp on and off many times and tried re-connecting etc still no drive appearing.
Then i took the drive to my friend with a mac lap top power book. connected there - working fine. Baffling. was happy that my data can still be accessed.
I know it's not the firewire cable because i can get power to the drive - i can see the red light at the fron on.
Can anyone help with this weird problem?
Thanks

Thought you could use this info about getting FireWire to work!
First, you should always Repair Permissions in Disk Utility before and after any update; I would do that now. If you installed your update with FireWire plugged in, your Mac may not recognize it anymore.
Try resetting your FireWire ports by disconnecting all FW devices, shut down your Mac and unplug it from AC power (wall socket) for 30 minutes. plug it back in and try FW.
If that did'nt work, download the combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try. Yours might be the 10.4.10 Combo update. I have no idea since you did not fill out your specs. fully when you signed in to this site. Others reading, download the Combo that applies to your system. This link is for PPC Macs not Intel Macs.
If that still did'nt get it Zap the PRAM. While restarting Mac hold down the following key combo Command-Option-P-R. Keep holding those keys down till you hear the second start-up chime, then release.
For those of you with Macs that are not PowerBooks or iBooks, a bad internal battery can cause FireWire to not be recognized, so make sure it's good! Also, here is Apple doc.#88338 on getting FireWire to work.
Good Luck!
Cheers!

Mega 865 DVD RW drive - HELP PLEASE

Hello again been a long time since i have been here. Anyway the reason im back is that my DVD RW (NEC 2500A) is getting "Power callibration" errors when burning .. tried all the new firmwares etc so looks like the drive is dead..
Now my question is .. what drive can i get to replace is .. i.e is the NEC 3550A good etc... or is there better onces...
I remember about a year or so ago there was a list on here but couldnt find it ( i did try and search)
Any help please
Thanks

"Power calibration" errors can be caused by a failing drive, or by using bad media. also, have you tried using a DVD head cleaning disc, in case the lens is dirty?

Cannot connect network drives through network switch

macmini cannot see network drives connected to airport extreme. Network drives are connected through dlink 48 port 1 gig switch.How can
I edit airport extreme to see these drives?

The switch will be unlikely to have anything to do with the problem.. but bypass it and see.. plug a laptop or something directly into the extreme.. do the disks now show up?? If not the Extreme setup is wrong.. if they do and you can transfer files.. something is odd with the switch and you will need to work with dlink to figure if it is blocking some protocol.. Tell us how this test works out.. you can force the mac to use SMB by manually mounting the drive.. No switch is going to block SMB.
Do the external drives show up on the extreme in the airport utility?
Have you turned on file sharing?
Make sure in finder preferences you have enabled network drives.
No go, are the drives formatted correctly.. they must be HFS+ or FAT32 format..
I used to say GUID partitioned but not sure now..

my FaceTime says that there is no connected camera? Help Please

If restarting Mac does not resolve your trouble, try all the relevant suggestions (including testing more than one Apple camera application in more than one user account) from Apple's How to Troubleshoot iSight support article.
(Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD." Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
If your Mac's System Information utility still does not recognize your inbuilt camera as a USB device, you most likely have a hardware problem. There are no user serviceable parts of the camera. For hardware help, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service. Unless you have a current backup, make one now. Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion: "... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."

Mobile network state "connecting" but never connects...help please?

Hi,
When I try to turn on 3G data on my Fascinate, it never connects. Under settings/about phone/mobile network state it just says "connecting" but never connects, and the "3G" icon never appears in the top right corner of the phone. I've tried toggling the airplane mode, turning off, then turning back on and toggling airplane mode off, but it didn't work.
I was wondering why I haven't received the 2.3 OTA update yet, and I guess it's because my data is not working.
Any suggestions?
thanks for any help you can give!

Not to make it sound simplistic, but have you pulled the battery out? Shut off phone, pull the battery for 30 seconds, put the battery back in, and then turn it on.

TS1398 My MacBook connects happily to a wifi system but my iPad doesn't altho it identifies the network. Help please

Cannot connect to an existing (and workin) wifi system. My MacBook connects no problem!

You have the latest iOS 5.1.1 on your iPad?
Reset your modem/router (turn off power for some minutes)
On your iPad go to Settings, General > Reset > Reset all settings.
Then Keep pressed the Powerbutton and the Homebutton at the same time until you see the Apple logo in your screen.
Then turn power on on modem/router.
Sometimes it can be the security on your router, be sure it is WPA2-AES.

Macbook Internet Network Hacking (Help Please!)

Hi, Thanks for looking... I am concerned that my apartment neighbor (a computer network engineer) might be trying to hack my Macbook and snoop around with my internet usage, and possibly access my Macbook remotely. Could someone please answer a few questions to ease my concerns please? (The Macbook is connected directly to the broadband modem and there is no wireless internet involved.)
// I suspect he might have gotten physical access to my broadband modem and seen it, is there any information on the modem itself that would give him access to my macbook and internet usage? (The modem says: cable RF MAC Address... and a serial number)
// How easy is it to hack a specific Macbook? Say if my neighbor was indeed a hacker, and wanted to mess with me for whatever reason, would it actually be possible to find out my internet IP address (could he hack the ISP?) to snoop around with how I use the internet? (The Macbook now has the firewall enabled and file sharing, etc. switched off.)
I know very little about this computer networking stuff, so I'm thinking the worst scenario is happening (which is hopefully far-fetched and exaggerated.) If anyone could help me by sharing their knowledge that would be an awesome help! Thanks!

Depending on the router, it may be very easy for him to hack it, whether he has seen it or not. If you believe this may have happened, see How to manage a hacked wireless router.
As for hacking the Mac, that's not a significant concern unless he has had unmonitored physical access to the machine. If he has, the only way to be sure he hasn't installed something to monitor you is to erase the hard drive and reinstall everything from scratch.
If he is able to get on the same network as you - which you should make sure to prevent by securing your wireless router - be sure everything in System Preferences -> Sharing is turned off. If you must have a service there turned on, be sure it can only be accessed using a strong password.

55UL605U Network setup help please

Ok so we've had this tv for weeks now and no matter what I try, I cannot get it to connect to my home network. Could someone please help a newbie to get this connected? PLEASE

Hello,
01: If Macs, this may be important...
10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x/10.8.x instructions...
System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
10.4 instructions...
Is that Interface dragged to the top of Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations.
02: The beauty of the guest network - and the whole point of it - is that you get two separate wireless networks for the price of one AirPort base station. The traffic is segmented and isolated, so users connected to the guest network can't see or detect the traffic on the primary network, and vice versa.

NETWORK setup-HELP please !

tried to access search & articles w/o success.
i have 2 G4s wired via ethernet to a d-link router that yes does have both G4s working as far as internet.........but i am very confused about what is 'Server - Network - File sharing ' etc.
when i first hooked this up i got G4 #1 to.......GO> connect to server >choose HD1 or HD2 (from G4 #2)
it was listed in 'mount to volume'.
now i have a weird problem, after [connect to sever] it simply WILL NOT connect thru my REGISTERED USER......only thru a [guest], and then it will only mount to 'somthing' i have named and offers DROP BOX only.
OK technically i can 'file share' (i think) by using this....BUT what i really need is for BOTH G4s to be able to connect or 'mount' to the HDs.
i have seen this work allready once on G4 #1 but #2 never did.
things that seem important.
-volume to mount
-admin name
-rendevous name
-work group
-apple talk
-IP address
so what did i do when i had the HD in my network, was that a server or file sharing ??????
when im in an app like FCP i can easily import or open from ANY HD......'drop box' doesn't appear, so you can see why thats important.
Each G4 has a seperate address....00 -01.......but when i enter that i get an error -36 (still can't find error list)
when i try to login as registered user i get LOGIN FAILED.
-since i don't use a password i am wondering about......'log on is disabled'.......what is that ?
i remember in other apps when there is a problem it says to TRASH YOUR PREFS.........coult that be an issue here ?
i have never used passwords and then i engaged the lock and restarted and it would NOT open w/o a password.......so needed to re-do one from install disk, im thinking that could have stuff-bad data stuck somewhere like 'keychain'.....so w/o doing a total re-install, how can i start over basically eliminating all the crap i have done ?
But my main question is.....to see the other HD from connct to server.....is that 'fileshareing' or simply a network, i don't get it ?
Any help would be great.

Cornelius & Gerald......
Wanted to express my sincere appreciation in walking me thru this, offering your ideas and insight, but mostly your support....just knowing your real people (gentleman) that took a moment to offer what you could and were there with me thru the duration.......to me thats 'support'.
As fun and rewarding and at time frustrating it is to work as a MAC person, a minority im proud to be proud of. Not so much for the 'magic' of the techknowledgy that at one time was very special......but now that magic in my opinion is in the people, the community which you guys just reminded me of.
The current {MAC vs. PC} ads on TV reveal a 'part' of the many unique differences between the potential computer buyers.........MAC is young & hip, simple yet powerful, a symbol of yourself in a way. The window's based PC is complicated, designed for boring application,suseptible to illness....very much like why are parents drive practicle & boring and we drive the Super SUV that gets you there in style, can haul your boat as well as become part of your business.........
Well as we all know..... many of us being older, single parents, running a biz that wasn't even thought of 10 years ago, surrounded by hi-tek gear EVERYWHERE probably would agree that its NOT the computer or even the software....its the USER who makes it special !
It was 1995 and all my dreams of building grand set-designs for special events were put on hold cuz of spine problem that caused me chronic-pain and would be just too much to build and be responsible for.......thats when i discovered a dormant passion for video.
A friend worked at local PC discount ctr. and deducted his comm. and i got my 1st PC-clone, pre-pentium, no power or memory, but at the time, like every other idiot i was happy w/this box.....it controlledmy music keyboard and drum machine, learned that basic concept of what a PC allowed folks to do. To compose a pristine document, w/spellcheck...wow. A fax app that could fax lists of numbers......you could see how this overgrown calculator can transform a biz in your garage and make it look like a huge pollished corp........but what changed everything for me guys was this simple gadget that i first saw demonstrated on HSN home shopping, and boy was i sold. It was called SNAPPY* and for $100 you plugged this into your parrelel port and Viola'.......i had access to litterly anything ! It was simply a capture device that used RCA in's.......so that meant anything from your VideoCam/VCR and that meant ANYTHING you could record, turned my 1st RCA OmniMovie cam (pawn shop $300) into a 'moving scanner'.
It was one of those magical momets in life where you become drunk on inspiration....all the potential, all the images i could get inside and then real excitment imerged when realized that this wasn't just a media capture device but very sophiticated paint-photo retouch application. This was so new to me......my first ever computer exp was at 'kinkos' copy shop using the first MACs and i remember a simple way to add color by hand and maybe at that time i was impressed by that.......this was called Fauve-Matiste which i used before Photshop which if i remember that was something you went to commercial art school and then a ad agency to use the elite Adobe products........this was doing retouch right in my own home. I recall the brushes could mix and blend multiple colors paint, an effct i still havent seen in PS.
I remember adding space and stars around faces, making wild collages using various images i would blend and layer. The project that really affectd me was a still of the bus in the movie Speed where it crashes into the parked Jet. Seeing rear of the bus all surrounded by flames i gave my self an assignment to add smoke clean up blurlike im prepping for a poster........that was such a huge thing for me. I had became pretty good at real air-brushing, but this was so controlled, no changing messy paint, clean up or mistakes that are difficult to repair, in the PC you un-do things that don't work (theres time in real life i reach to UN-do a task and realize.....duh) So I knew computeres were special in some way, they could 'run things' like machines, robots......but home PC had some limitations and when your young and nieve the limits can be as simple as your knowledge of whats available. Video games didn't impress me cuz i have never seen a game that brings a group of people into it, always 1 player then another.....I would rather do something creative that where the music MIDI interface was the first 'wow' i felt.....then the capture and paint.
The reason im giving you this backstory is right at this point is where my creativity w/ painting/retouching captured stillsand my search for what else can i do w/this box led me to wanting to start editing these still projects into other creative projects. Keep in mind 'cable access has been around for several years and a great way to get exposer for any AV project you put some time into......considering all the cheezy crap i have seen on there I kick myself for not following thru. My biggest part of any creative endevour art or music, if no one else ever is exposed to it, no other feedback, its like the most important element is missing.
Thats when i began to put 2+2 together and see that video, moving pics are gonna be important, and other then COPS-MTV there wasn't the range of reality TV we have today. The reason thats important, some very smart people thought FILM based projects whether animation shorts or documentaries whatever would always be the norm that VIDEO could never cut the mustard......and if you remember how bad early anolog video was, even Hi8 w/ pro lighting in the adult ent. could look pretty bad........so once DV entered and could be edited non-lin, OK the local news had good video quality but cost what over 100k and that old way of A/B roll was all changing. So my point was even though there were video cards for my old PC that actual footage would have been a few seconds........thats when i made the call !!!!!
The point for this yaking rant.
Instead of calling places that sell video gear (they sell you-what they want to)......i looked in the YP for companies that 'shoot-edit' produce professional video.........and thats when i heard those infamous words.
"People who do pro work use MACs'
Honestly at that timei had no real idea what made one diff from a PC. I new that this thing called Pentium was gonna be big, but i ask around about using PC for video and never got the feeling like they were made for that even though some apps claimed they could work......i remember some guy talking about [Jen-lock] which i think is what the news uses for editing, it doesn't capture ALL the footage, more like 2 videocams pluged into a VCR can do simple edits and i did make a few of my first video projects that way and that was cool........but the person at the video production who made it clear that MAC is the only way to go if your serious also mentioned that there are 2 new developments that are a huge deal.....1st being the G4 ready for video w/ Firewire and then the application designed for it Final Cut Pro. All you need is a DV cam w/ a FW port and you'll be set kid.
Of course i had no idea what any of this meant or how it would change and dominate the next several years of my life. But for all the times i never listened when i should have, this time i felt i new something that i should keep in mind........so when my father who became ill and needed a care ctr decided to give me and my sisters a substatial some money i wanted to make a smart decision, not blow it on a car or trip or whizz it away on chasin girls, he said to me why not go to some tek school for video, get a degree. That sounded like a great idea make him proud in his final years, so i called that same guy up and asked a few more questions trusting his insight.> He told me that first off the teachers won't know this application, they will be learning it as you do, and it would be unlikely they will have the newer G4s......which means you spend all your cash........you now will learn at the pace the instructer does, he might have great knowledge on camera operation and lighting, but that can be learned other ways. Then if you don't live on or near campus you will always be fighting for MAC time probably on the older G3 and the most important thing you can do is spend time w/the proper gear. Sure being around other creative students who have passion and talent is very important, just like having access to real pros who know the biz old school........but if you have either or........invest in your own gear, you add a 3chip Canon DV to that setup and a few other things you willhave your own Digital Editing Suit that you can learn at your own pace and have access 24/7.......while those guys are fighting for time like a laundry mat you will master the basisin no time and then get to the place where its 'your creativity' that counts......you put that on your demo reel and if you've got it......that degree won't matter. Sure if you can do both, own your DVE and also have the class atmosphere cuz your gonna need people to help in your productions.......but if your excited and motivated you should be able to find plenty of people to work with.....hang around that class and any others to make contacts, but own your own gear. While they are paying back school loans you will be able to charge for your services.
So thats my story i wanted to share with you guys and how ultimatly even w/o class mates to learn with......having a 'world' of fellow MAC users who are kind helping and loyal to not only their MAC of choice but the apple community and support friends they have never met but share a unique kinship in the elegance of what can this sleek machine add to our lives......and if we need help or ideas there someone out there has gone thru what you have.......and that almost always means it leads to some kind of success.
Anyway i would really like to hear what projects you guys work on.....what led you to being loyal to MAC or experience's that made it clear your glad you did........and are the current MACs still special compared by speed-power-reliabilty-ease of use ?
So again thanks for that support.......comcast wanted $150 plus $5 a month stating i would need their support........thast just too much for a simple router i found for $19........and w/ your help go it going.....having no support, no MAC community is when i feel overwhelmed and that steels my creativity away, so that why i shared allthis........i shows how important you all our.
so thanks again.........share a bit yourself......i look forward to it.
