Disk on firewire 800 not recognised until disk on firewire 400 powered up? Any solutions?
I have a Seagate Freeagent connected to firewire 800 and a Maxwell Onetouch connected to the firewire 400. The Seagate is not recognised until I power up the Maxwell but if I power up the Maxwell during before the power up of the seagate the Seagate again is not recognised. The Seagate is the designated Time Machine disk. Also when sleeping (but not always) the Seagate is dropped and I get a "dosk not demounted " message on waking. Any solutions known to these mounting problems with the firewire connections? Thank you.
I am answering my own problem. Install Lion! Problem has been solved. I always thought it was an OS problem. Good news.

My Seagate external 250GB hard drive ejects improperly without command. I am trying to use Time Machine to backup my macbook via usb cable... I keep getting the message that the disked ejected improperly... Any solutions...
You are not alone. Thousands have this problem, on various models of Macs. Short answer, it has something to do with the disk going to sleep (possibly?). You can't do anything about it and Apple won't address the problem. Maybe you should buy a time capsule. Just keep giving them money and use their proprietary equipment.
For a more complete answer, see this thread (all 65+ pages of it with NO SOLUTION IN SIGHT... except for some 3rd party solutions that sometimes work, sometimes don't): Disk Drive ejecting itself -
I have just plugged in my scanner (HP Scanjet G2710) however my old HP Scan software will not opne. I have found a patch on the HP site which may fic the problem (although it only sesm to go up to OSX 10.7) and having donaloaded the patch my Mac will not opne or deal with the software as it now tells me it does not recognise HP as an Apple affiliated compnay. Any help / suggestions? I don't really want to buy another scanner...
Hi,
By reading your notes I assume you didn't uninstalled the HP Software and installed the latest v10.6 software available online, any previous version will not work regardless the patch installation as it was not signed.
Be sure to follow the directions listed in here:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c03428470 #A3
The latest software can be downoad from here:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en &cc=us&prodTypeId=15179&prodSeriesId=3423844&prodNameId=3423845&swEnvOID=219&swL ang=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=sj-78355-5
Then you should reinstall the patch:

My wireless password in only 6 lowercase letters, but my iPod touch requires me to enter 8 before allowing me to join. Therefore it will not let me log on to the wireless network, any solutions?
What encryption are you using on the router?
If WEP you have to set the router to use the first key and you have to enter the first key as the password on the iPod. See:

Pgp encryption now not working after mountain lion upgrade (mac book 2009), any solutions?
I have a 2009 mac book and installed pgp whole disc encryption. I have been using since 2011. I wanted to upgrade to Mountain lion and decrypted the disc. I installed Mountain lion and now I am told that the pgp will not operate. I need a solution asap. Thanks.
Guys, thanks for the assistance. I took it to IT guys in work who recommended using filevault which I agreed. However, when the computer was to restart, the apple logo appeared and then a "prohibited" symbol accompanied by the fantastic spinning wheel of death.
Now it will not boot. I have tried entering option + R and restoring from a time machine/capsule backup. However, it will find the relevant backup (I backed the machine up prior to decrypting etc) but is stuck on "Searching for disks...".
Is my only solution to reinstall Mountain lion and then restore from a backup? Any solutions would be of great assistance. I had downloaded mountain lion from the app store. How do I reinstall the software in such circumstances?
Thanks. -

My iPad is not recognised in iTunes despite all suggested troubleshooting. Any suggestions
Can anyone give me any suggestions as iPad will not show up on iTunes despite all suggested troubleshooting
Peter-
Did it ever work? What version of iTunes are you using? (The latest is 10.3.1 as of today.)
You might have a defective cable. I suggest you try carefully disconnecting and reconnecting it to the iPad, to be sure it is making good contact. If you have the iPad 2, there is a slight compatibility problem with the old dock due to the shape of the iPad 2's bottom.
Fred -
This all happened suddenly by itself. I did not install any new programs or software of any kind. I have Norton security software, but this has been installed on my PC for 6 months without any problems. I have uninstalled Firefox3.6,10. And reinstalled it, but it does not solve the problems.

My Mac does not shutdown properly and is all around glitchy. Any solution?
When Lion became available I downloaded it immediately. I also extracted the install DMG and burnt it to a DVD and a bootable USB stick (thank God).
I have a new iMac 2.5GHz i5 base model (500GB HD 4GB RAM) and I was using Snow Leopard and my Mac shutdown quickly, booted up quickly, and I never had any glitches in the GUI. After upgrading to Lion my system took forever to bootup and shutdown. Even if I don't tick the box to "Reopen windows when logging back in". Sometimes it takes 2-3 minutes to boot, and 1-2 minutes to shutdown. I timed SL 10.6.8 before upgrading and bootup was about 40 seconds and shutdown was about 5 seconds to instant.
Also, after Lion was installed, all the page swipes in Safari and from full screen apps was extremely glitchy and sluggish. Sometimes the screen would get stuck between the apps or an app and desktop. Sometimes the iMac would just plain freeze with the beachball of death. So I thought I had something leftover from SL that was fudging my system. So I booted from the USB install image I made, re-partitioned the HD and reformatted it (I re-partitioned to get rid of the hidden recovery partition and the bootcamp partition). Then I re-installed Lion as a fresh copy. I re-installed all my apps but didn't use bootcamp or any VMs yet.
Now after a clean install, my GUI is no longer glitchy or sluggish. Transitions between fullscreen apps and the desktop is smooth. However, my shutdown and startup issues still remain (and are a little worse). If I tell the computer to shutdown, no matter I click "reopen windows" or uncheck "reopen" windows, it can take 1-2 minutes to shutdown. Also, after being off all night, when I boot my computer, sometimes it will come to the login screen and ask for my password (but I have set it up for automatic login and not to prompt for password on screensaver or wakeup also). I also did not encrypt my drive. So I cannot figure out why it asks me to login. After I give it my password and sign in, the menu bar is not translucent and the airport does not function. Then I must restart Lion and everything is okay again (except it takes 2-3 minutes to reboot again).
I already tried repairing permissions, I downloaded the beta for the latest Onyx last night and cleared out all the caches and told it to verify and rebuild all the scripts. Only about 10 things were repaired in the permissions list. The disk passed verification, and I am not getting any mysterious messages in console. So what is going on with booting and sometimes requiring me to login with a password and booting into a system with messed up menus and non functional airport? I don't want to start my iMac, login, and then restart every time I want to use it.
I have been working with Macs since OS 8 and I have currently have 2 PPC Macs running 10.5.8, and 2 Intel Macs (one is still on 10.6.8 until I solve this Lion problem). I have even played with hackintoshes on my netbooks and in VMware before. I am pretty versed in OS X, but I am at a loss to figure out what is going on with Lion. I don't see any unusual messages in the console or any error messages. When on the phone with Apple care they insist the shutdown issue is not a problem. But the startup concerns me most, since it asks me to login, the I must restart anyways to get it back. It acts like a Windows sytem waking up from hibernation and not loading all the proper drivers.
Sorry for the long post, just wanted to be concise about the issue. Anyone have any suggestions? Any help is much appreciated! Thanks.The funniest part of the whole situation, Apple Care explained it to me as some kind of feature. The told me how to adjust the time when my computer sleeps and recommend I don't shut it down, let it sleep and "instant wake". I would bet if you called them about your Macbook, they would suggest you just close the lid and let it sleep rather than shutting it down.
Basically shutdown and restart have a problem and the solution is to not shutdown is how they explained it to me. They kept saying buzz words like "instant on" and "fast wakeup". My computer already could sleep and wakeup fast, but now shutdown and restart don't work right. I called them 3 times about it, but since they use these buzzwords, sounds like Lion is meant for a Macbook Air or a Mac with an SSD. If you have a normal hard disk, some of the saving/versions/resume features take too long to be written to the disk on shutdown. And when you start again, it takes a long time to reload the system to it's previous point.
Even if I uncheck the box to reopen windows on next start, it reopens them anyways.
If they can't give me a better explaination or some kind of fix, I will have to go back to Snow Leopard. I use my Mac in a production environment and depend on stability. They assured me before I upgraded that it would be stable and all the new saving and versions features could help my productivity. So far it's not helping me and downright annoying. You need to close all your windows before you close the program... if you have 5 windows open in terminal or textedit... every time you launch, they will launch all those windows. I just really want versions, not resume it seems.
But I can deal with it opening a million windows, just can't take it getting stuck on booting or not shutting down properly. This is a "feature" that should be fixed. LOL -
Hi!
As my project had grown beyond the point where I could keep a global overview, I tried creating atool that dynamically creates a kind of hirarchy for my TS libraries. It runs quite well for a small test setup, but crashes due to missing memory for the whole project. Any ideas?
A short description: I do all coding in LV7.1.
* Firts I open an automation refnum to TS.Iengine and invoke the method 'GetSequenceFileEx' with the path to my main seqfile, Flags = 0 and conflicthandler_Error.
* Than I use that sequencefile object to invoke the method 'Getsequence' with an index of 0 (assuming this beeing the 'MainSequence').
* For the returned sequence object I invoke the method 'GetNumSTep', which is fed into a For-Loop. Inside that loop, the very same object reference is used to:
- invoke 'GetStep' with the loop index
- with the step object i get some proiperties like Name, some expression and bolean values. If the step 'can_Specify_module', I invoke 'GetDescriptionEx', before the step object is closed (cvlose reference vi)
- I also invoke 'Parameters' on the step object. The parameter reference is used to access the property 'getLocation', which than is used as lookupString to access the property 'GetNumSubProperties', which I take as number of parameters of that step. Finally the parameters reference is closed
* The reference to the sequence object is closed after the for loop.
I fianlly get an array of description for all steps in the sequence file, in the order they are called from mainsequence there.
This array is used to recursively add a similar subarray for any subsequence call in it, until all calls are resolved (using a while loop that runs until the loop counter reaches the number of steps in the step description array).
The array is than scanned for 'typical' errors of mine like wrong parameter number at subsequence calls, missing/misspelled subsequences andf so on.
The LabVIEW execution accumulates more than 1 GB of RAM. LabVIEW itself reports just some 100kB of used RAM. So I assume the difference is RAM used by TS as a child process in LV. What can be done?
A vi with this code is provided (AS IS!).
Attachments:
SeqFileAnalyser.zip 192 KBHello Lul,
I tried out you tool and took a quick look at it and it ran fine. I did notice that LV memory grows during execution but only a few kb with a standard demo from TS (the increase is about the same size as the file being saved at the end). This is expected bahavior since results are being stored in memory during execution. When it is done, my mem goes back to about what it used to be before running. 1 GB of Mem seems to be very very very high! Did you expect it to be like this? How big is your txt file being created? Is the VI you posted exactly what you are using or do you have additinal loops that make the VI run continuosly and save to txt after multiple runs? I did not see any critical issues with your VI but I also did not go into your code in debth.
As long as you close all your TS references in LV, you should not havbe any mem leaks.
If you expect big fiole to be created, your PC will use up all RAm then use Virtual mem, the size for Virtual mem can be set in the Control Panel in Windows, usually tough, the system can set it dinamically, this might help you avoid crashe.
Hope this helps

My iPhone 4 is not letting me sign in with my Apple ID. I have my phone synced up to my sister's computer (who has a 4S) because I don't have Internet on my computer. And ever since I updated my phone to iOS.6, the App Store asks for my sister's Apple ID password. I log out in settings (even though it says its my Apple ID) and login again and my phone accepts it. Then I try to download something and it STILL asks me for my sister's password. This has never happened until I updated to iOS.6
