Disk aint the

I just got a new album today in the sho
ps.
I inserted it to my dvd-rw dri've to put it on to my zen touch. But the disk does not appear on the dri've. the light on the dri've is on and running but in the my computer folder it is not there.
What could be the problem. i tried it on a hifi system and it works great. then i tried it on my old pc and the audio cd runs a software player to run the songs. it worked fine.
Why is it not working on my laptop?
all my other audio cds work fine.
the reason i am putting this post here is because this is after i installed the zen touch software. is there a problem with it's
does it take over other media players when a cd is inserted?

coby.... can the CD actually be read by CD rom dri'ves or not?
because if it can there might be some type of softwrwe to allow you to rip it
infact try DBpower amp.... i manged to rip my beastie boys an open letter to nyc with that... and that had some strange protection i think
also you could consider playing the CD on your cd player connecting it to your computer and recording... (i know this isnt great but..)Message Edited by -Recoba- on 03-25-2005 09:40 PM

  • A disk in the DVD drive causes a crash, machine will not start

    I have a fairly bizarre problem, searched, didn't find it in here so... maybe I am special. Anyway. I have a 2.4ghz MBP with 4GB of memory. I got it in November (with Leopard). It has worked without an issue until I started tonight to give bootcamp a go on it.
    Symptoms:
    - Leopard boots up fine, logged in, nothing else open
    - Insert any disk (DVD, CD-R)
    - Leopard crashes
    - continues to cycle through a restart but it keeps crashing waits 1 min, restarts, repeat
    - Even tried a Leopard disk
    Tried:
    - disk utility to look at things
    - can't load anything to check the hardware cause its cd based
    What I did before it started going nuts?
    I used bootcamp to partition the drive. This worked fine. Stuck the XP disk in and it read it fine. Machine rebooted to install XP, this was fine. Things went well until the XP install asked for a reboot. Then it restarts, disk failure. I eject disk and select OS X. Off we go, things are good.
    I delete partition thinking something got screwed up. Tried again. This time when I put the XP disk in the thing crashes while in Leopard.
    While I have typed this my machine has restarted a dozen times on its own. It is kinda funny to watch but *** has happened to it? I can't even re-install Leopard... no drive.
    The DVD drive does spin up but after a few seconds it crashes. Any ideas out there?

    Maybe related...
    Bought a 2.6G MBP yesterday, brought it home, booted up, everything great until I started loading my apps---CDs/DVDs would spin and spin, then eject---then Install Disc 1 froze the system. Can't eject the disc---onboard fans racing like jet engines and the keyboard area near the screen seemed very hot. Posted last night---someone thinks either bad optical drive or motherboard. About to go see a Genius now. For $3K+, this pretty much *****.

  • Error Msg - There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive

    Okay, I have been using itunes w/the same ipod for quite a while. Recently my computer died so I just bought a new one. Before getting rid of the old one I logged onto windows and moved all my files to an external drive. I am now using this external drive for all my docs, music, etc. on the new computer and did a "move" of "my documents" (including "my music" contained therein). I installed itunes and my ipod using the software disks that came with my ipod. I inserted the ipod and it worked fine but it did make me associate the ipod with this new computer and had to reinstall all my music on my ipod. So far so good. Then when I went to play a purchased song itunes informed me that I had to upgrade to the most recent version of itunes to play the song. I then dowloaded the update and installed it. After installing the updated itunes, itunes then basically re-associated itself with my ORIGINAL profile (I'm not sure if profile is the correct word to use here) and once again deleted everything on my ipod and reinstalled all my songs. Now this is where I began having this problem. Now, everytime I run itunes (with or without my ipod connected) I get 12 of the above-mentioned error messages. The top of the box says "Windows - No Disk" and the main part of the box says "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive." I am given the choice of "Cancel" "Try Again" and "Continue." I hit cancel for a total of 12 times. I've tried with disks in both of my cd/dvd drives and get the same message. The funny thing is that I have about 12 or so card readers (scene by the computer as drives) and I'm thinking that maybe itunes is trying to access those drives or something, but I'm not sure. So, that's it in a nutshell. Any help by someone w/knowledge of this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    This can also be caused in iTunes 7 by "dead tracks": songs that iTunes is expecting to find in a certain place but the song file isn't there.
    I recently upgraded to version 7 and got this message every time I started iTunes. I used the iTunes COM SDK for Windows with JScript to find all the dead tracks in my library. Then I fixed them by either deleting them from the library or else correcting the library's idea of where the song file was. Once I did this the message went away.
    Another way to look for dead tracks is to parse the iTunes library XML file and look for invalid file paths. I did this in Perl without too much trouble.
    (I'm cross-posting this to several threads about the same problem.)

  • When I am using Premiere elements 13 I get a message that pops up "that there is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive", this also happened 3 months ago How can I get rid of this again?

    When I am using Premiere Elements 13 I get a message that pops up "There is no disk in the drive" I click on it and it keeps coming back "very annoying", but about three months ago it happened to me and I was told to change the file name from OldFilm.AEX  to OldFilm.AEXold. Well now the file is back in Folder OldFilm.AEX. Here is a screen shot the files are highlighted.What should I do now to correct this once and for all, or can I? Thank you for your time.

    TomWolves
    I would do another rename to disable or just delete all the OldFilm.AEX and OldFilm.AEXOLD in that NewBlue Folder.
    If you do, please let me know if that OldFilm.AEX regenerates itself the next time you open Premiere Elements 13.
    Here is the strange story...at least from my Premiere Elements 13 Windows perspective...never had the No Disc error issue
    Here are some details to sort through trying to figure out why you have 2 OldFilm.AEX file in the NewBlue Folder.
    1. The original OldFilm.AEX file of Premiere Elements 13 has the date of 9/4/2014 (just before the version was released on 9/24/2014).
    After the 13.1 update is done (whenever date), that OldFilm.AEX file has the date of 1/31/2015. I first saw notification of the 13.1 Update
    release early in February 2015.
    2. Now in Premiere Elements 13.1, if I take my OldFilm.AEX (date 1/31/2015) and disable it by renaming it to OldFilm.AEXOLD, close out of there, and reopen
    the program, the OldFilm.AEX is not seen to regenerate. The OldFilm.AEXOLD remains there as its lone self.
    3. So, I am thinking that your OldFilm.AEXOLD in the screenshoot is "original equipment" that you disabled to get rid of No disc error.
    Why the OldFilm.AEX is there also is not clear, but the dating on it suggests that it came along with the 13.1 Update.
    Bottom line: let us try the deletion or disabling one more time and see what happens.
    Looking forward to further reports on your findings, as your time permits.
    Thanks.

  • Stop the beeps with the 7200 rpm hard disks of the MacBook Pro

    http://www.hardmac.com/news/2009/07/13/stop-the-beeps-with-the-7200-rpm-hard-dis ks-of-the-macbook-pro
    Stop the beeps with the 7200 rpm hard disks of the MacBook Pro
    from HardMac.com by [email protected] (Lionel)
    At the beginning of week, we have spoken about the unpleasant beeps made by the 7200 rpm hard drive proposed as an option in the MacBook Pro 2009.
    A solution has been found, the details are given by Rémy.
    These tedious beeps occur when the disc is inactive and are caused by a system
    to reposition the play-back head carried out in a repetitive way.
    In addition to the beeps of the hard drive, Mac OS X displays the pretty multicoloured wheel during some seconds while waiting for hard drive to finish these loadings and unloadings of the play-back head.
    The solution comes with a utility of the name hdapm (for Hard Disk Advanced Power Management) which makes it possible to change the level of energy management (APM) of the hard drive.
    Hdapm can be downloaded from : http://mckinlay.net.nz/hdapm; hdapm being a command line utility, it is thus necessary to use the Terminal (which is in /Applications/Utilitaires).
    After copying hdapm into your user file, the command to enter is:
    sudo ~/hdapm disk0 max
    disk0 corresponds to the disc to regulate knowing that hdapm should function with any ATA disk supporting APM
    max is the level of APM which is a number ranging between 1 and 254 included
    the word following are preset and can used in the place a number for the level of APM
    max (maximum performance) is the parameter to use to eliminate the “beeps”.
    min (maximum economy of energy)
    default (returns to the default setting)
    The level of APM is a temporary adjustment in the firmware of the hard drive, this adjustment is lost when the disk is powered down and it is thus necessary to redo this at each for each start up.
    To install hdapm so it is launched at each start-up, it is necessary to copy hdapm to the hard drive (/usr/local/bin is advised) and to copy the file hdapm.plist in /Library/LaunchDaemons.
    It will be can be necessary to you to edit hdapm.plist with the desired parameters; the default settings are: the repertory where hdapm is /usr/local/bin, the hard drive is regulated on the first (disk0) and the level of APM is the maximum.
    You can simply copy the file hdapm into /usr/local/bin file if you want to avoid modifying Plist.
    Simplest way to reach these files is to use the Go/go to the file and to copy/paste this address before validating.

    Yeah, I don't buy that. I spoke with Seagate a couple of months ago when I was looking for the impossible to find 500 GB 7200 RPM HD and asked them that very thing. They told me it would work fine, but I should disable SMS. Apple told me the same thing. I ultimately waited and got a non G-Force model, but Seagate told me it would work.
    I also don't believe that they'd OEM the drive to Apple knowing it wouldn't work. That makes absolutely no sense. If Seagate knew the G-Force drive would not function properly in an Apple MacBook/MacBook Pro, and they OEM'd it to Apple for that purpose anyway, what does that say about Seagate?
    I admit it's odd that the used the G-Force model given the presence of SMS, but apparently Seagate has prioritized the manufacturing of the G-Force drives and probably offered it to Apple.

    Hi there,
    I found that Time Machine in Mavericks will sort it all out for you. You shouldn't need to buy another backup drive, unless you have insufficient space left and can't afford to delete whats on there. It should just work fine.

  • Can I use the time capsule as backup and hard disk at the same time?

    Hi.
    I want to buy a time capsule.
    I wondered, if I can use the time capsule as backup (over time machine) and as a hard disk at the same time?
    If I buy the 2TB time capsule, I wanted to use 1TB for the backup and 1TB for hard disk.
    Is this possible?
    Best wishes
    Sophie

    It is not recommended.. the problem being anything stored on the TC only is not backed up and cannot be backed up by the TC itself or Time Machine. So what are you going to do about back.. the TC can and do die suddenly.. and the cost of recovery can be huge.
    See Q3 here for the semi-right way to do it if you must.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
    You can plug a USB drive into the TC and use that for files.. but note, its speed is poor.. fine for wireless as wireless is even slower but you will really notice it if you expect the drive to be as fast as the internal.. it will be a fraction of the internal drive speed. 1/2 write and 1/3 read aprox.

  • Error Message When Syncing Ipod "There is no disk in the drive ... "

    When doing a search on the internet for this error message, i see a few other previous posts on forums.ilounge.com with others having this issue with Itunes, but all I can find is someone talking about deleting the Itunes preferences files on my computer, and I did that, but that didn't help. I was wondering if anyone had any bright ideas.
    I get this annoying message EVERYTIME I sync my Ipod:
    "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive G:".
    (Drive G on my computer is my Ipod when i have it plugged in). It doesn't seem to interfere with anything; all I have to do is click continue and the message goes away. But as I said, it's annoying, and I want it gone. I want to avoid reinstalling Itunes if I can due to the hassle of having to do so, plus previous posters on forums.ilounge.com said they did so an it didn't help. If someone can direct me to a previous string where this has already been discussed please post me the link. thanks!

    Hi there
    I am also getting this error message. One day my iPod was syncing fine, the next I was getting this error message. I have tried every conceivable drive letter, and still I get the message. i have also tried every drive on my computer, still the same message.
    I have restarted and restored the iPod several times, no change to error message.
    I shelled out £16.99 on a new sync cable, thinking that might help - but no, i still get the same error message.
    In addition, my iPod screen displays the DO NOT DISCONNECT sign.
    I seem to be able to perform a sync, but at the end, when iTunes says sync complete, the error message appears on my screen (incidentaly the header bar of the error message says: CorelLOMonitor.exe - No Disk) and the iPod screen continues to flash "Do Not Disconnect". This continues indefinatly and I have only been able to stop it by unplugging the iPod form the Sync cable.
    I really would welcome some assistance with this problem.
    Many thanks

    install OS X 10.4.2 on the hard drive, I do not see the disk. What is the problem?

    Thanks for the help
    I started on the installation CD OS X 10.4.2, I used Disk Utility
    to partition the disk according to the document that you have proposed. unfortunately
    I have not succeeded. When I partition the disk, even if I called it Macintosh HD, it
    does not keep the name and it shows disk0s3 instead. I did an erase on disk.
    When I mount the disk it tells me that I must repair. When I tried to repair, I got
    the following message:
    Volume check failed
    The underflying task reported failure on exit
    1 HFS volume checked
    1 volume could not be repaired because of an error.
    I also had a message:
    Invalid b-tree node size.
    Note: The disc is new, but it has already been formatted on a computer Imac 27 inch 2011 OS X Lion.
          I used a USB 2.0 to SATA cable to adjust the formatting.

  • Windows Error Msg when using Itunes - "There is no disk in the drive. "

    Hi there -
    Desperately seeking help before I lose my mind !
    Whenever I try to do anything in iTunes I get the Windows windows error message "WINDOWS - NO DISK. There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive ." with the options to either CANCEL, TRY AGAIN or CONTINUE.
    Regardless of which of the options I select, the error message re-appears & will not close.
    I try CTRLALTDEL but I get the message Itunes is "not responding".
    I have tried:
    - Updating iTunes software
    - Making sure I have the latest Windows Updates
    - Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes
    - Selective start-up where I disable all applications which might be clashing with iTunes
    - clearing the menu in QuickTime
    None of these work
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks -
    HP Pavillion   Windows XP  

    I am wondering if you ever got this problem straightened out, or if anyone else knows the solution to this problem. I am receiving the exact same message as you talk about receiving here:
    "WINDOWS - NO DISK. There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive ."
    No drive is listed, just a "."
    I also have tried uninstalling and resinstalling iTunes many times. Not only that, but I thought it might be a virus problem of some kind, so I totally resintalled my Windows XP system. All to no avail. Even on my newly installed system I am having this problem in iTunes.
    I have found that if I hit Cancel about 80 times (literally), iTunes will finally load. But it is crazy that anyone should have to go throug this each time he loads the iTunes program.
    Someone posted a link to a Microsoft fix for a similar problem, but I was unable to understand the fix, and the problem listed in the fix did not seem to correspond with the problem we're having.
    If anyone knows the solution to this problem and is able to give instructions for the solution, I would really appreciate it! I would just use an alternative mp3 player to iTunes at this point if I could, but that isn't really feasible since I have an iPod.

  • Windows Error: "There is no disk in the drive"

    When I connect or update my iPod using iTunes, I get a Windows Error stating "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive F:." F: is the drive that my iPod appears in explorer while the device is updating.
    Is this a problem with the iPod or with windows? I would like to know in case i have a defective iPod.
    Thanks!

    FYI, after calling Apple support, it turns out the problem was to do with McAfee VirusScan. McAfee attempts to access the iPod disk after the disk is removed from Explorer, which was the source of the error box. To fix this, you can either turn on the "External Disk" option in iTunes, or you can change McAfee setttings to exclude the iPod disk.

  • Windows No Disk There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk......

    Help! Just recently this message window has been appearing everytime I open up iTunes:
    Windows No Disk
    There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive.
    iTunes was humming along nicely for over a year with no problems. All of a sudden this message keeps popping up. I can still use iTunes to its full capacity, but this annoying little window is beginning to push my blood pressure up.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Thanks

    Any thoughts?
    all manner of thoughts. some might even be relevant to the matter at hand ...
    okay, back in the days of new itunes 6.0.0.18 and 6.0.1.3 installs, we used to sometimes get reports of Windows asking for all sorts of disks when people tried to launch itunes after an upgrade. (sometimes it would be like your message, sometimes it would be asking for a specific disk with no apparent connection to itunes.) i never did manage to work out what precisely was going on with it. my best guess was that the installation scripts in the itunes installers (or QT 7.0.3 installers) were sometimes activating other installation routines for other programs. (i've seen your message show up before when i've tried installing other software on my PC from a disk.) whatever it was, it seemed to stop happening to people from itunes 6.0.2.23 (and QT 7.0.4) onwards.
    i was wondering if we had an even weirder version of that going on with your message (only it started happening after an install of a different package). that's why i was checking up on the version number of your itunes before.
    assuming for the moment that you do have an itunes 6.0.0.18 or 6.0.1.3 in there, we might as well try something that could fix the version of the message that you're getting. sometimes if people put a CD (an audio CD is fine) into the disk drive prior to launching their itunes, they wouldn't get that message. sometimes, they wouldn't get that message ever again even if in future launches they didn't have a CD in the drive.
    if no joy with that (and you're currently at 6.0.0.18 or 6.0.1.3), we might try an upgrade to 6.0.4.2 (working on the principle that we haven't seen this often if at all since 6.0.2.23 came out, and 6.0.4.2 is more stable and/or more readily available than 6.0.2.23 or 6.0.3.5).
    keep us posted.
