Creative mp3 dmp2 recognised but no drive. Not availab

Hey,
Installed mp3 player software after connecting device.
Found usb device correctly.
Went to My Computer yet it isnt there.
Using a LanParty NForce3 250.
I have had troubles with the usb on this MB from day .
Any ideas ...
(tried un-installing mp3 software, etc.)
Keeps searching for the drivers when I connect it.
Thanks...

^It might be worth your while to add a USB 2 card. I've had a lot better luck with dedicated USB ports than onboard ones.

  • My password is not recognised but I did not change it

    Hello,
    got new hard drive. When switch on first time it did request my password, was entered successfully.
    After switched off and later on again, it did not ask for password at all. Then as I want to make some changes it asks for my password but when i type it it shakes but my password is correct.
    Any idea what happened then and since I cannot even change my password (it does not recognise the "old"one)...what's next?
    Am just afraid when I will switch off and if it ask again for password and since it does not recognise it that I wont be able to login in at some point.
    Thank you
    C.

    First, make sure caps lock is not on.
    Another reason why your password might not be recognized is that the keyboard layout (input source) has been switched without your realizing it. At the login screen, you can cycle through the available layouts by pressing the key combination command-space or command-option-space. See this support article.
    You must back up all data before continuing, unless you've already done so. If you need to back up but can't log in, ask for instructions.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

  • HD needs repairing but optical drive NOT reading discs.

    My problem is this: I have a June 2010 21.5" iMac which is out of warranty.   Disk utility says my HD needs repairing.  No problem, I have the original install DVD.   Trouble is my DVD drive has suddenly stopped reading discs! I rand Apple tech support for help and I asked them if I could simply buy a usb external DVD drive and re-install that way? Since I will also have to reinstall from DVD; Logic and Pro-Tools.   He said no!   Consequently I'm booked in for repair next week at an Apple store.
    Is that a way of Apple making money and I CAN actually repair the HD via an external usb hard drive??  Did he convince me to take it to an Apple store so they gain cash from me that way?
    Do I take it in for repair?  The Apple Tech Support guy gave me no clue as to how much this is going to cost.
    Or don't take for repair and buy an external usb DVD drive?
    I struggle with computers at the best of times!
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    I've used ancient Compaq "Multi-bay" external drives and a variety of other random-vendor external USB drives with Apple laptops and Apple servers, and they've worked.  In several cases, I was using the old Compaq drives because the integrated DVD drivers were dusty or had failed — DVD drives of all sorts can and do fail, Apple, third-party and otherwise — and the Compaq drives were handy.  That Compaq Multi-bay drive booted an Apple Xserve Intel box with a bad slot-loader, too. 
    If one drive fails, debugging suggests trying a different drive.
    If you don't want to be concerned about compatibility, order one of those (not cheap) Apple external DVD drives.  I now have a couple of those around, and they work.
    It's quite true that newer Apple laptops don't have DVD drives, though most of these systems offer a recovery partition on the disk, the ability to create external recovery partitions on the device of your choice, newer ones have Internet-based recovery if you're lacking a drive (booting from Apple's servers via the Internet), and the Mac boxes I've tried will boot from various random USB devices including the old other-vendor DVD drives, and from the Apple external DVD drives.  With another Mac with a compatible wiring connection (Thunderbolt and cable on newer Mac systems, and FireWire and cable with a pair of older Mac systems), Target Disk Mode (TDM) can be used.  The installations can also be copied to other hard disks, and it's also possible to network-boot most any Mac system, if you have a server around.  And there's also the remote disk installations that some Mac systems can offer.   Put another way, there are various and good alternatives to device-integrated DVD drives.
    DVD is an old and mechanical technology, and it's variously a flaky one.  Given a choice, I'd rather boot OS X off an external hard disk or solid state or flash device or via TDM, just because it's faster and more compact.  This because I'd rather not carry around the weight and volume of that DVD drive all the time, on the off chance I might sometime eventually need to recover.  But an external random DVD device does work, too.
    As was mentioned else-thread, there is no special chip required in the drives.  Given the command set and status-level differences from drive to drive I've seen and given the failure rates I've witnessed with DVD and CD drives from all vendors including Apple, I wouldn't expect every drive to work, but I've seen nothing that Apple does here that would prevents a random drive from working.  And I've used random drives...

  • Lightroom is shown as installed in creative cloud desktop app but it is not

    Hi,
    I am new to the creative cloud and signed up for the photographic bundle.
    I went to the lightroom download first in the creative cloud download center and downloaded the cc desktop app as described.
    After installation the cc desktop app shows lightroom installed and up to date even when it hasn't installed anything. Lightroom is not show in the list of available app since it "thinks" it is already installed, I guess.
    Is there a way to reinstall Lightroom?
    I am working on an iMac, i5, 12GB RAM with OS X Mavericks and Fusion Drive
    Best regards
    Marco Runge

    Uninstall whatever version of LR you have install, now, perhaps a trial that has expired.  Use the normal uninstall process for your computer OS.
    Then Quit the CC Desktop application, then restart it.  At this point it’ll look for what is still installed locally and see that LR has been uninstalled, and offer you the CC version to install.
    If that doesn’t work try the more severe things, here:

  • Other Touch recognised but daughters is not

    My daughter's Touch pings when its pluged into the PC but is not recognised in iTunes. My other daughters Touch, which was bought at the same time is recognised and so is my old Classic. I have triied doing the following
    1. Reinstall iTunes
    2. Tried using different ports/cables to connect the iPod
    3. Let the battery run out then recharge using an external electric charger
    4. It is recognised when it is connected to my work laptop but I cannot bring this home for her to download/manage.
    The Touch charges whilst connected to the PC, which is XP,
    Other than the above her iPod is fully functional, she can connect to the internet, play music/vids etc. The only other problem she has is that the on/off button on the top of her iPod does not work and she is unable to switch off manually, although dont think this should be related?
    Tried searching the net but not come accross a similar problem where other iPods are working on the same PC. Any help will be greatly apprieciated.

    I'm having the same problems with the same JVC decks since upgrading to FCP 5.1.2 and I need to finish my projects. I got one of the decks to work finally, but during capture, after making new clips in the bin, FCP displays "searching for media" in capture window and not fully capturing the next clip and it does this with every clip. This was not a problem before I upgraded to FCP 5.1.2. Will someone please help!!!!!!

  • I downloaded music to my ipod (4th gen) from my computer but it was mp3 format.  It shows that the music is in there but I can not play it.  It seems to  be in there as a file but not as music.

    I downloaded music from my computer to my ipod (4th gen) but I can not listen to it. It shows that it is on there as files but not music is this because the music was format for a mp3.  How do I convert it to play on the ipod or move it to the music file?

    The iPod can play MP3 files, so that's not the problem.
    It sounds like you're accessing the iPod as a disk drive, and copying files in Windows Explorer.
    This is not the way to put music on your iPod. You have to install iTunes on your computer, and put your music in iTunes. Then you can use iTunes to select the music you want on your iPod.

  • External USB Hard Drive Not Recognised / Seen

    Hi,
    I have a WP 250 GB External hard drive which was working fine until recently and now is not recognised by my 2007 Intel Macbook. When I plug in the hard drive, a light comes on solidly and it begins whirring. Then, it continues to whirr as if it was going to work, but the light starts flickering.
    It is not visable as an external hard drive in finder. 'View Hard Disk' is switched on under Finder / Preferences. On System Profiler, when I click 'USB' fom the list on the left, the computer displays the circular "thinking about it" spinning thing, and system profiler freezes, and nothing else happens. The same thing happens with disk utility.
    I tried plugging the hard drive into a windows computer, and it worked fine; all the files inside it were visable. It is formatted to my mac and I have successfully used the hard drive many times before. A logical next step would be to try it on another mac but I don't have access to one.
    I have tried to to a PRAM reset, but couldn't do it, even following the instructions on the MAC website (turn off computer, turn on and hold the mac button, ctrl, p, and r simultaneously) it wouldn't do a PRAM reset.
    I am not a computer expert, but I am not completely green either. Why is it that doing the simplest thing on a computer requires a minimum of a 4 year computer science degree or equivalent.... somebody please help me crack this, I am close to smashing the whole thing to pieces with a hammer (which would be satisfying but counterproductive and expensive...)
    Thanks in advance for your replies

    Did you allow Windows to upgrade the formatting on this drive from FAT to NTFS recently? You should be able to check the formatting on the volume from within Windows. It would also be worth trying to repair the drive under Windows if it allows you to.
    Note that NTFS is not readable under OS 10.4.x without special software. NTFS is read-only but not writable under OS 10.5 and later.
    If the volume isn't NTFS, and repairing it doesn't help, you may need to just backup the data and try to reformat it.

  • External hard drive not recognised in start up options

    Hi! I'm struggling to get to grips with creating a bootable external drive - any advice would be very welcome!
    I've recently bought a LaCie Triple Interface 300GB external drive to use for backup storage and to use as a back up bootable drive should disaster strike. It's connected to my Mac via the FireWire 800 port.
    I've backed up my documents and cloned system folders and apps using Intego Backup, but the drive is not recognised in the start up options of the system preferences, nor does it appear as a bootable drive when I option-restart.
    Do I need to format and partition the drive before it will be recognised as a bootable drive? (I haven't done so) Or have I just cloned the wrong thing?! I'm not entirely sure what I need to clone to be able to boot and back up from it. Should I clone the entire HD?
    Or does it sound like something else entirely?
    Can anyone help??
    1.8 GHz PowerPC G5 6.5MB RAM   Mac OS X (10.2.x)  

    I'm not familar with Intego Backup. Get Carbon Copy Cloner and use it to clone your entire drive, user files and all.Be sure to check the "make bootable" box before you start the process. Could be that Intego isn't capable of making a drive bootable.

  • ITunes does not recognise USB Flash Drive

    Hi everyone,
    I am repeating this request in the hopes that the daytime crowd will have someone who can help!
    I plug a usb flashdrive into my MacBook with iTunes active.
    It comes up on desktop.
    It does not appear as device in iTunes.
    I can move files (albums) to the device from music menu under Go.
    I cannot save my playlists from iTunes.
    How do I get iTunes to recognise the usb drive.
    Thanks,  Steve.

    Hello Limnos,
    Thanks again for all your help.
    Since my initial response I've looked in a little more depth at the track names.
    All my files are stored and played at CD quality from the original CD rather than MP3.
    It appears that track names are extracted from the Library and look a little different from those that appear in the iTunes playlist.
    I see now that the first element of the track name is the track number from the original CD. So if my playlist is made up of 3 CDs then all the track 01s get stored first and played first, followed by track 02s etc.
    I do not think it will take a great deal of effort to renumber the tracks from 01 to xty in what ever order I want them played since I usually play complete albums all the way through.
    Thanks again,  Steve. 
    BTW. Based on this I went out today and bought an 8Gb flash drive that I shall use to take our music with us on holiday.  Saves a great weight in CDs! (and lets us get under new airline weight restrictions)

  • Hard drive not recognised....

    Not being completely Apple savvy I may have dug my own rabbit warren here, however now being stuck up the creek without said paddle I could do with some sage help / advice.
    Macbook refused to startup and asked me to keep on restarting, I managed to get into the disk utilities through the startup CD 1 and I tried to repair permissions and disk to no joy, quite possibly by selecting the HD itself rather than MACHD.
    I decided to erase and re-install OS X however when I get to the relevant section of the install it is not giving me any options of a volume to install it to! I also have got into singleuser boot, the command prompt pages, and it states my root device is mounted read only. If I fsck the drive it again states my disk is (NO WRITE)
    I assumed my hard drive need completely re-formatting but it is not recognised within the disk utility for me to erase...
    Any help, advice, ideas (rather than me throwing it against the wall) will be very well received.

    I still have the same opinion. Try to check with a new hard drive. As far as I can judge it, this even can be another external drive.
    I had once a hard time to upgrade a MB Pro from Tiger to Leopard. The problem was a build in 4200rpm drive, which was way to slow to be recognized by the installer program or what ever. Even though the drive was looking good in the first run it was just not OK. I replaced the drive and - bingo.

    My computer failed and the main drive had to be formatted but all my music was on a separate internal hard drive. So I downloaded the latest iTunes , problem is it has found all my songs but seems to not recognize half of the album data, half of the artists, all of the dates and all ratings data.
    I had a large part of it backed up on DVD's but it does not want to recognise them either?
    Any tips?

  • External drive not recognised

    Hi,
    I'm trying to attach an old laptop hard drive via a SATA to USB cable, but it's not being recognised.  Dmesg shows the output below, so it identifies that a new device is attached, but fdisk -l or lsusb don't know it's there.  Not sure what to try next - any ideas?
    usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6

    sd 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0
    sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk
    I'd have expected an error message or something to appear in dmesg.  The drive should contain a single NTFS partition.
    Thanks,

    Oops - just noticed this line in lsusb.  I assume this means the connector I'm using isn't working?
