Disk mounting from a sandbox

Hi. I am trying to adapt an app to run in a sandbox. The app stores it's data inside a disk image which it mounts using hdiutil when run. When I enable the app sandbox the app fails to mount the disk. Looking at the console I get the error messages
08/12/2011 11:20:01.382 sandboxd: ([21526]) sh(21526) deny file-read-data /dev/ttys002
08/12/2011 11:20:01.485 sandboxd: ([21527]) hdiutil(21527) deny sysctl-write

08/12/2011 11:20:01.500 sandboxd: ([21527]) hdiutil(21527) deny sysctl-write
It looks like the app is running hdiutil succesfully but hdiutil is failing due to not having the right entitlments. I'm not sure how to go about setting the entitlements on hdiutil or what they should be. Also don't know what the sh process is

Yes it is. This should help you.

Finder crashes when trying to open disc mounted from disc image

I downloaded a disc image of an application I need to install (Verizon Access Manager). Image downloads fine and when I double click it, it mounts the applicaiton disc. But if I try to open the application disc, it crashes the Finder.
I checked both the disc image and the disc it created with Disk Utility and they both come back clean.
Not sure what to do.

Might open Activity Monitor in Utilities & see if you can force Quit/Restart Finder there, but might try this...
First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if Finder & Search work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
If that doesn't work my next guess would be maybe Spotlight is messed up.

Known disk-mounting fault on iPod Video 80GB?

Is there a known disk mounting fault with the iPod Video 80GB?
I’m running iTunes Version 7.0.1.8 and have so far had two brand new 80GB iPod Video devices, purchased from a registered New Zealand reseller (TotallyMac.com).
Both iPods have successfully loaded my music library and have played perfectly, both on headphones and on my iPod hi-fi. However, when I subsequently plug the iPod into any of the USB 2 ports on my laptop, the iPod does not show up as a device in My Computer, File Explorer or in iTunes.
I’m running Windows XP, Service Pack 2.
The problem also occurs on a second PC – the iPod refuses to show as a device in My Computer, Windows File Explorer or in iTunes. However, it does show up in Device Manager, and the ‘Safely Remove Hardware’ icon shows on the Windows status bar when the iPod is connected. Even so, when the iPod is safely ejected, the iPod screen continues to show ‘Do Not Disconnect’, so the only way to safely eject the iPod is to reset it on the iPod.
I’ve tried restarting the computer, putting the iPod into disk mode and so on. Unfortunately, none of the advice on the Apple website for iPods that refuse to mount helps me – because I can’t get the iPod to appear as a device anywhere on my computer, I can’t rename the Drive Volume (to another letter instead of ‘E:’) or restore the iPod to factory settings.
I can’t help thinking that Apple has created a ‘Catch 22’ situation by removing the iPod Updater option in iTunes 7 – none of the previous versions of iPod Updater is compatible with iTunes 7, meaning it’s impossible for people who have a Disk Mount problem to restore their iPods. If you can’t get the iPod to show up in iTunes, how are you supposed to restore the device or solve disk mounting problems?
There appears to be no other way to restore the device if you’re using iTunes 7.
Why isn’t there a ‘restore’ option in the iPod’s own diagnostics menu, some combination of click-wheel buttons that will allow you to reformat/restore the drive?
My previous (40GB) Fourth-Generation iPod mounts perfectly on both this laptop and another PC, suggesting it is the new iPods that are the problem. Also, as I said, the new iPod fails to mount on the second PC, supporting this theory.
Both faulty iPods have been set to ‘manually update’ and I also ticked the ‘Enable Disk Use’ option and removed the checkmark from ‘Automatically open iTunes’.
It would be good to hear from someone else who has experienced similar difficulties, as I’m by no means a new iPod user and this has both me and the Apple service technicians I’ve spoken to completely stumped. Is it a known problem and, if so, will it be dealt with in future iTunes updates…?

Try forcing the iPod into disk mode:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
And then see if you can change the Volume Drive Letter:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499
If nothing else works, you may want to give this a shot:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
Since you did say the iPod continues to show Do Not Disconnect after ejecting it, I'm thinking maybe there's something on your computer that's interfering with the iPod.
Also, when the iPod comes up in Device Manager, does it have any kind of warning on it? You may need to uninstall the iPod's drivers, and then restart the computer with the iPod attached to reinstall it. This may not be the case, though, since the iPod is still showing Do Not Disconnect while it's plugged in.
You may also want to make sure you have the iPod connected to a USB port directly on the rear of the computer, or try a different USB cable.
Also, you might want to try restarting the iPodService

Disk Utility 'Disk Image from Folder' looses file create date?

Hi,
I have been working on creating backups that maintain the files' create dates. I have found the following anomoly using Disk Utility.
If I create a Disk Image From Folder, the create dates of all files are changed to be the same as the last modify dates. Not what I want.
If I creat a Blank Disk Image, and then using Finder to copy the files to the Disk Image, the create dates remain unchanged.
I can then burn the backup CD's with the Disk Image and the files' create dates are maintained. So, future restore from the backup CD will contain the original files' create dates.
Does anyone know if Disk Utility's Create Disk Image from Folder is supposed to loose the files' create dates? What other file attributes are being lost? Mac OS X maintains all of these attributes, and create dates via Finder copies, I would expect the Disk Utility Create Disk Image from Folder to do the same.
Bob Horton

To follow up on this post, I know at least part of the answer. The difference between the two becomes clearer if you read the documentation (man pages) for hdiutil and asr. Image 1 will be created in file mode, whereas image 2 will be in block mode, ie bypassing the file system. Image 1 will consist of a series of files, whereas image 2 will contain a series of blocks, mirroring the original layout of the hard disk.
Technically the latter should be faster to restore (in block mode), although Apple recommend the first procedure (see man page for hdiutil). I haven't seen any evidence that images created in block mode can be mounted or restored, although you might be able to burn such images to a optical disks if applicable.
As I've pointed out in another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1508199&tstart=0) I believe that this functionality should not be offered in disk utility, and I consider it a serious bug.

Startup disk disappear from the desktop

Well, without any reason, The startup disk is disappear from the desktop.
(Just only the startup disk)
I found this 2 times before, once on my 8 cores Mac Pro, once on my iMac G5.
I couldn't do anything to fix them, so I formatted and re-install OS.
with my iMac, it ran Tiger before, there's no problem until I changed to Leopard,
After about 2 weeks under the new Leopard,then the startup disk disappear from the desktop,
it shown the hidden status in disk utility and could not mount it,
So I formatted and back to install old Tiger.
Everything's fine. that's really good Operating system.
Bad luck, about 2 months ago, My iMac G5 had some problem with motherboard and the harddisk also damaged, I send it to Apple Thailand, They fixed it and send back with installed Leopard inside my new hard disk.(well... again)
Now after a few weeks. it happen again.
Startup disk disappear from the desktop.
This problem never exist on my Mac Pro, just with the iMac G5.
(Please don't tell me to check the finder preference about the sidebar setting.
it's already set to show every items there even the iDisk)
I wondered why I don't see anyone have problem with this.
I'm really want to find the answer about this.
I asked this question to Apple Thailand's support team but they didn't have any idea.
Who's gonna answer this

I found a solution to the problem and posted it here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1858340&stqc=true
I pasted the solution below:
from a Terminal window, type:
ls -lOd /
(That's lowercase ell, lowercase ess, space, minus, lowercase ell, capital oh, lowercase dee, space, forward slash)
You should get something like this:
hostname:~ username$ ls -lOd /
drwxrwxr-t 32 root admin - 1156 Feb 8 20:35 /
Sounds like you might see something like this instead:
hostname:~ username$ ls -lOd /
drwxrwxr-t@ 32 root admin hidden 1156 Feb 8 20:35 /
(note it says "hidden" instead of "-")
To fix this, type:
sudo chflags nohidden /
and provide your admin password. You won't get any output back from the command but the icon should now appear on your desktop, and the hidden flag should go away if you repeat the 'ls -lOd /' command.
And just in case you missed it above, you've got to be sure Hard disks are turned on in Finder General Preferences under "Show these items on the Desktop"

Word for mac 2011 keyboard commands hang when network disk mounted

After much trial and error, I have found that, for my system, at least, MS Word for Mac 2011 hangs on keyboard commands when a network disk is mounted on my desktop.
Just wanted to alert all who get the beach ball when use keyboard commands in MS Word.
Symptom was that Cmd-C would take 8-13 seconds or so to copy 1 word, versus immediate when using menu commands. Same with Cmd-V paste. Also, opening a document took much longer.
Once I ejected network disk, problem disappeared.
Hopefully this will save someone else the time I spent tracking down the issue. I'd still love to know the root problem, though, as I prefer to have a remoe disk mounted on desktop while I work, and now I can't.

Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper (v 2.8). Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components.
The effects of having actually used MacKeeper to do anything are a completely different matter. The fastest way to take an exquisitely designed and painstakingly engineered Mac and make it run like a steaming pile of dung is to install and use such ill-conceived "cleaning" or "security" products. This is just one example of a broad category of time- and money-wasters capable of causing damage that can only be rectified by reinstalling OS X, restoring from a backup, or completely erasing your system and rebuilding it from the ground up. Never install such junk on a Mac.
If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.

FireWire on MacPro - some disks mounting, some don't

Hello
I seem to have a FireWire problem on my Mac Pro.
I have a removable hard disk case from WiebeTech (FW 800 and USB 2.0) that has refused to let me mount disks since I got the Mac Pro. USB works, but not FW. I thought it must be a problem with the case. WiebeTech thinks so too, that the bridge is broken. I also have an external FW 800/400 naked hdd dock from the same maker, and it hasn't given me any problems. Until today, anyway.
Today it refused to mount. I also found I can't mount my external cased FW 400 hard disk.
I went to the System Profiler, and it didn't display the FW bus. Odd.
I then ran the Apple Hardware test. No problems reported. I rebooted and did a safe boot. Logged in.
Now the System Profiler showed the bus, the hard disk attached to the FW 800 naked hdd dock mounted, and the iPod mounted as well. When the bus was gone, nothing mounthed, of course.
Now I just have the problem with the external FW 400 and removable FW 800 disks in the WiebeTech case.
But the above leads me to believe that the problem is not with the disks or dock connectors, but with the Mac hardware or software.
I have done the latest firmware upgrade for the Mac Pro.
Any hints?

I have had a lot of problems with a MyBook 500GB external drive from WD. Connecting via USB 2.0 is fine, always works. Connecting via Firewire 800 is a problem.
If I restart my mac with my two FW 400 drives and my FW 800 connected, only the FW 400's mount. When I unplug my FW 800 and remove the power cord. Then plug in the FW 800 cable, and then plug in the FW Drive power cord it "sometimes" mounts. That seems to be the order.
I saw some posts elsewhere that outline issues with the Firewire buss and sharing between the front and the back. Some recommend to get a PCI firewire card and put it in. It really should work as designed; I think these guys had power issues and other file copy problems. I have none of that - its all about mounting the drive.

FilesystemMountPoints for ufs disks mounted to non-global zones

Hello,
I have a SAN ufs disk to be used as a failover storage, mounted to non-global zones (NGZ).
Solaris 10 nodes using Cluster 3.2
I'm looking for the correct value for the property FilesystemMountPoints and the vfstab entry required for a failover disk mounted to a NGZ.
Should the path NOT include the NGZ root path?
From the man page for SUNW.HAStoragePlus, for the property FilesystemMountPoints:
You can specify both the path in a non-global zone and the path in a global zone, in this format:
Non-GlobalZonePath:GlobalZonePath
The global zone path is optional. If you do not specify a global zone path, Sun Cluster assumes that the path in
the non-global zone and in the global zone are the same. If you specify the path as
Non-GlobalZonePath:GlobalZonePath, you must specify Global-ZonePath in the global zone's /etc/vfstab.
The default setting for this property is an empty list.
You can use the SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type to make a file system available to a non-global zone. To enable
the SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type to do this, you must create a mount point in the global zone and in the
non-global zone. The SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type makes the file system available to the non-global zone
by mounting the file system in the global zone. The resource type then performs a loopback mount in the
non-global zone.
Each file system mount point should have an equivalent entry in /etc/vfstab on all cluster nodes and in all
global zones. The SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type does not check /etc/vfstab in non-global zones.
SUNW.HAStoragePlus resources that specify local file systems can only belong in a failover resource group
with affinity switchovers enabled. These local file systems can therefore be termed failover file systems. You
can specify both local and global file system mounts points at the same time.
Any file system whose mount point is present in the FilesystemMountPoints extension property is assumed to
be local if its /etc/vfstab entry satisfies both of the following conditions:
1. The non-global mount option is specified.
2. The "mount at boot" field for the entry is set to "no."
In my situation, I want to mount the disk to /mysql_data on the NGZ called ftp_zone. So, which is the correct setup?
a. FilesystemMountPoints=/mysql_data:/zones/ftp_zone/root/mysql_data
Global zone vfstab entry /dev/md/ftpabin/dsk/d110 /dev/md/ftpabin/rdsk/d110 /zones/ftp_zone/root/mysql_data ufs 1 no logging
NGZ mount point /mysql_data
OR
b. FilesystemMountPoints=/mysql_data:/mysql_data (can be condensed to simply /mysql_data)
Global zone vfstab entry /dev/md/ftpabin/dsk/d110 /dev/md/ftpabin/rdsk/d110 /mysql_data ufs 1 no logging
NGZ mount point /mysql_data
Should the path NOT include the NGZ root path?
And should the fsck pass # be 1 or 2?
Looking at this example from p. 26 of
http://wikis.sun.com/download/attachments/24543510/820-4690.pdf
This example doesn't mention the entry in vfstab.
Create a resource group that can holds services in nodea zonex and nodeb zoney
nodea# clresourcegroup create -n nodea:zonex,nodeb:zoney test-rg
Make sure the HAStoragePlus resource is registered
nodea# clresourcetype register SUNW.HAStoragePlus
Now add a UFS [or VxFS] fail-over file system: mount /bigspace1 to failover/export/install in NGZ
nodea# clresource create -t SUNW.HAStoragePlus -g test-rg \
-p FilesystemMountPoints=/fail-over/export/install:/bigspace1 \
ufs-hasp-rs
Thank you!

Hi,
/zones/oracle-z is my root directory of the zone.
* add the device to the zone :
root@mpbxapp1 # zonecfg -z oracle-z
zonecfg:oracle-z> add device
zonecfg:oracle-z:device> set match=/dev/global/dsk/d12s0
zonecfg:oracle-z:device> end
zonecfg:oracle-z> add device
zonecfg:oracle-z:device> set match=/dev/global/rdsk/d12s0
zonecfg:oracle-z:device> end
zonecfg:oracle-z> exit
* add FS to NGZ's /etc/vfstab : ( You may omit this step, I don't know why but it works without this step :) )
root@mpbxapp1 # vi /zones/oracle-z/root/etc/vfstab
/dev/global/dsk/d12s0 /dev/global/rdsk/d12s0 /global/oracle ufs 1 no logging
* add FS to global zone's /etc/vfstab :
root@mpbxapp1 # vi /etc/vfstab
/dev/global/dsk/d12s0 /dev/global/rdsk/d12s0 /zonefs/oracle ufs 1 no logging
* set the FilesystemMountPoints property :
root@mpbxapp1 # /usr/cluster/bin/clresource set -p FilesystemMountPoints=/global/oracle:/zonefs/oracle oracle-hastp
Whit this configuration you may ensure that the FS is not directly accessible from master zone. Actually, it's accessible but with a different PATH. For example, for Oracle, from the master zone Oracle can not be started/stopped because the controlfile can not be accessed. :)
Hope this helps,
Murat

ASM Disk Mount Error

Hi,
I am consistently getting the following error since yesterday while mounting the ASM disk.
1. I created the ASM disks successfully and created the appropriate ASM DiskGroups using asmca utility.
2. I was able to see the diskgroups as mounted from asmcmd tool.
3. All of a sudden, all the diskgroups were dismounted yesterday and I see the following error in the alert logs for all the
diskgroups.
4. This is using ASM11g
As I exhausted all my avenues to fix, I have turned to you for further assistance. Please do the needful.

Thanks Berx for pointing that out.
I deleted the ASM disks and the diskgroups and re-created a fresh and was able to start the ASM instance and mount the DGs.
Now the mount is persistent, but the dbca fails with the following error in the alert log. Under what situations can this error be seen ?

Is it possible to use an internal optical drive/ZIP drive mount from a PowerMac G4 Graphite in a PowerMac G4 Quicksilver?

Hello, All. Is it possible to use an internal optical drive/ZIP drive mount from a Power Mac G4 Graphite (Sawtooth) in a Power Mac G4 Quicksilver? Obviously, the two computers use physicly different mounts, but does anyone have any tips or hints to make this possible? I appreciate any advice.

"I may be persistent and attempt to drill holes in the correct position in the front of the Quicksilver chassis."
Unfortunately, it's more than a case of drilling a couple of holes. The modification isn't really feasible, and after you remove the front panel from the Quicksilver case, you'll see what I mean. In the Optical/Zip drive area, the Quicksilver's front chassis wall isn't cut out the same way as previous models were. Prior to the Quicksilver models, the front plastic bezel (with the hinged Optical drive door and a blank or Zip-slotted bezel) was snapped in from the front, after the front panel was installed. The chassis wall had a large opening to accommodate installation/removal of the Optical and Zip drive carrier. As I indicated before, in the Quicksilver model, the Optical and Zip drive carrier is mounted internally. This is necessary because the front chassis wall has two separate openings cut in it. The upper opening is for the oval-shaped, hinged Optical drive door (snaps into place from the interior of the chassis) and the lower opening is a narrow slot for Zip disk insertion and the eject button. To use the Optical and Zip drive carrier from a Sawtooth G4 would require cutting the Quicksilver's front chassis wall, to create an opening large enough for the carrier. In doing this, you'd cut away the metal which has (7) small holes in it, through which the hinged door assembly's plastic mounting pins are inserted to properly position and secure it in place. If you don't want to lose the use of the hinged optical drive door, including the appearance of a seamless front panel, you can't cut away that metal. If you don't care about having a permanent oval opening in the front panel in front of the optical drive, you could attempt your modification. Because the Quicksilver's optical drive typically needs to have the trim piece unsnapped from the front of its tray, I'd want to retain the front panel's hinged door bezel to prevent excessive dust from entering the drive. As I recommended before, check ebay for a pulled carrier.

Strange blank disk mounting pop-ups on Finder

Hi,
Lately, i've been getting strange blank pop-ups in Finder with just title of the windows being Google Chrome or Adobe Flash Player (after i uninstalled Google Chrome and started using Safari).
When i check Disk Utility, i can see that a Google Chrome disk image is mounted or Adobe Flash Player disk image mounted (as the case may be). I've also been having problems with installing Adobe Flash Player 11. It gives me a no mountable disk system error even though i've tried downloading the file many times and am quite sure its not a problem with the .dmg
I have a late 2012 Mac Mini running 10.8.2 OSX on a Fusion Drive that i created on my own with the stock Apple 1TB HDD and a 256GB Samsung Pro 840 SSD. I've migrated my apps and data from a 2007 Macbook running Snow Leopard.
Anyone has any ideas on what could have gone wrong?
Thanks!

Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

Unable to prevent Time Machine backing up volume mounted from sparsebundle

I have a password-protected sparsebundle that contains my financial files, private data, etc, which I mount as a volume at startup. It's about 8GB. If I'm going to be away from my computer for a bit, I'll unmount the volume as an extra security measure.
I don't need or want Time Machine to back up the files INSIDE the volume, just the sparsebundle itself. If I needed to access a backup of a file inside the volume, I'd rather just pull up an earlier version of the sparsebundle, mount it, and find the file in there.
However, I've recently discovered that I can't exclude the mounted volume from Time Machine backups in the usual way - the volume name is greyed out when I go through the System Preferences/Time Machine pane, and won't let me select it to be excluded from backup.
So what's happening is that TM is backing up the contents of the volume, which is showing up as folders on the TM backup drive. Inside these folders is the complete listing (and actual data) of all the files in my secured volume!
Even if I UNmount the volume from my system, it's still possible to access the data via Time Machine.app (and via Finder, on the TM backup disk).
So, essentially, even though I've password protected the sparsebundle CONTAINING the data, all a person needs to get the data is to have access to my user account on my Mac, and they can get the data via the above methods.
Is there any way to allow TM to back up the sparsebundle itself, but not the listing of the contents (and data) of the mounted image?
It seems odd that I can exclude the volume contents from being indexed by Spotlight, but can't exclude them from being specifically backed up by Time Machine.
Thanks in advance for any assistance!

I have exactly the same issue. I cannot exclude the content of mounted disk images from my backup using the GUI (strangely on my other computer the content is not backuped).
I have manually edited with a text editor the preference file (Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist) today (I am using 10.6.3) and added in the SkipPaths section the mounting point of the disk image (typically /Volumes/NameofDisk ). So far so good. The corresponding folder appears in the backup but is empty.

Hard drive volume appears in sidebar Favorites when new disk mounts

Hard drive on my 17” MacBook Pro Quad Core i7 (2.5 GHz, 8GB SDRAM OS 10.8.2) is partitioned into 4 volumes; I'll call them A-Mountain Lion startup drive, B-Personal, C-Work, D-minimal clean Mt. Lion for emergencies. Problem relates to my regular boot drive.
I have Finder sidebars set to show 8 or 10 folders in the "Favorites" section and have ticked all boxes in the "Devices" section. Most of the time I have no external disks, CDs, etc., connected to the MBP, so the Devices section generally shows my computer and the four partitions. So far, so good.
Lately, every time an external volume is mounted and every time a disk image is mounted, the Personal volume (B) of my internal drive, which is already showing under Devices, also pops up in the Favorites section of the sidebar. I remove it from the Favorites, but the next time an external disk or a disk image mounts, there it is again. It's always volume B, never A, C, or D.
I have tried everything I can think of to cure this odd behavior: Used Disk Utility (verify all disks/volumes; repair volumes; repair permissions; etc.), though nothing seemed wrong. I've run Disk Warrior on all volumes. I cleaned out everything possible on the startup drive (A) with the latest version of Onyx. I've repeatedly trashed the plists I could identify in my user Library that had "sidebar" or "finder" in their names. I've logged in and out; started and restarted; started with shift key down. Still, every time a new volume or disk mounts, up pops this extra volume B among the Favorites (where it shouldn't be). I checked and unchecked various combinations of sidebar items in Finder Preferences. I've Forced Quit the Finder. It doesn't matter whether all, some, or no devices are checked; when a new disk mounts, there's the extra volume B again.
I have only two other clues to add. (1) I created a new temporary user account on my startup drive (volume A), and this behavior did NOT occur in the new account. (2) This same behavior had arisen once before, a couple of months ago. I went through similar blind attempts to cure it then, but at some point I must have done something right because I it got fixed. For the life of me, I can't remember which of all the things I tried did the trick.
Many thanks to anyone who can shed light on this annoying behavior.

I can add a bit to my earlier description. I had said the problem did not occur in a new user account. Well, after using the new account for a while, it showed up. Eventually I erased the startup volume and installed Mountain Lion (plus updates to 10.8.2) fresh. I used migration assistant to transfer only my old user, pared down applications, and network settings -- no preferences, application support stuff. The old user carried over the problem. But I immediately created a new user and have been working from it for the past two weeks, very gradually opening apps, adjusting settings, etc., and testing for the anomaly at each change. In some cases I did move preferences from a backup clone, but was always careful to test after each addition. All was well for a week, until one morning I noticed the data partition had appeared in sidebar Favorites. So I'm back to where I was. I had been documenting each change or introduction I made. The only things my notes said from the day before the sidebar anomaly appeared was launching and struggling to activate QuarkXPress 9.3, and copying over my old prefs and settings for TextWrangler. I completely removed every trace of QXP, but the problem remained. (I did not remove TextWrangler because I just can't believe it could be the culprit -- but could it?)
I also noticed a similar (though maybe not identical) problem posted in another thread <https://discussions.apple.com/message/20591050#20591050>, but so far no answers there either.

Inconsistent Airport USB disk mounting patterns

I have two Airport Extreme networks -- one at home and one in my office at work. I access both networks with a MacBook. Fine so far.
I also have an Iomega USB disk attached to the APE at home and an identical disk attached to my APE at work. The disk at home mounts nicely on my desktop. However, the disk at school does not mount. Connection proceeds to the point where I type in the password, but it does not mount, and I get the volume "__" could not be mounted message. This message appears regardless of which user account I work.
So, the Airport disk mounts fine at home but does not mount at my office. I've spent several hours deleting preference files, mucking around with the Airport Utility, etc. No go. Restarting the APE at work sometimes gives short-lived success, but it does not seem to last.
Any suggestions?

Okay, after reading several other discussion posts, the best workaround I've been able to find is to mount the Airport Disk through the Connect to Server menu. You'll need to know the IP address of your AirPort. It's probably either 10.0.1.1 or something like 192.168.0.1 -- you can find it by running AirPort Utility from the Utilities folder. Just click on your AirPort base station on the left side and the utility should say what the IP address of your base station is. (You can then quit AirPort Utility.)
Then press cmd-K, OR from the Finder click on the Go menu and then select Connect to Server...
In the "Server Address" box, type smb://AEBS-IP-adress/Volume-name
For example, in my setup, I connect to smb://10.0.1.1/Iomega because my AirPort Extreme Base Station has an IP address of 10.0.1.1 and the name of the drive I have connected to my AEBS is called "Iomega" The volume should now mount and show up in the Toolbar of any Finder window. It does NOT show up as a separate volume on my desktop, but your mileage may vary.
This has worked for me each time I've tried it and is much more reliable than trying to select my AEBS from the "Shared" option in the Toolbar of the Finder window.
BTW: If you will be doing this regularly, you may want to go back to the Connect to Server menu and click the + button to add it as one of your favorite servers.

Disks disappeared from Desktop after 10.5.4 - 10.5.8v1.1 update

Hi,
a strange think happend today after a server update from 10.5.4 to 10.5.8v1.1 with a downloaded combo installer: After the reboot 3 of 5 1 TB firewire disks disappeared from the desktop! Just gone. What makes the whole thing really tricky: they show up in the disk utilities as mounted! Repairing them doesn´t change a thing. Disk Warrior doesn´t help. What´s even more mysterious: Opening the terminal, cd to the /Volumes folder ls shows folders for all five disks. But "ls -l" produces an "Access denied" error for each of the missing disks! It requires a sudo to show the permissions of the disks! What´s more disturbing: The permissions of the disks not showing up are ending with an "+" while all the other disks have an "@". But what really knocks me of that you can mount and work with the missing disks over the network! I really need help with that.
Greetings,
Mike

Hello mibobby,
I'm seeing something similar to the problem you reported here. I my case there are 4 external hard drives connected to the Xserve 10.5.8. All drives are visible from Disk Utility, The Finder, and terminal. However, if a drive is plugged into another system, 10.5.8, or 10.6.2, the drives will not mount in the Finder. They appear in Disk Utility, but the volume appears as a blank piece of paper rather than a hard drive icon. If you navigate to the volume vial the terminal, you get an error indicating that you do not have permissions. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Did you ever get your problem resolved?
Thanks
Dean
