Drive Not Active

Everytime I open Media Encoder it cycles through 4-5 drives that are non existent on my computer. Drives F thru I. How do I disable Media Encoder from thinking the drives are "not active"?

I can't think of any other reason AME would be checking for drives. I've never noticed that behavior, even when a drive or two goes offline.

I have the same problem. I think that someone tried my iphone before me because when I want to reset it, I'm invited to enter a password that I didn't set. Also, when I go the Map application, the iphone indicate that I'm locateded in China while I'm in Tunisia. Now, I can't connect to my iphone to itunes, and I can't reset it because it ask me to enter a password that I didn't set.

When I open logic express 8 with eyetv open but not active and i close logic express 8 and make eyetv active it won't show closed captioning even though closed captioning is turned on

when I open logic express 8 with eyetv open but not active and i close logic express 8 and make eyetv active eyetv won't show closed captioning even though closed captioning is turned on. When I totally close eyetv and reopen eyetv and open a live tv window the closed captioning comes back. I never noticed this with os leopard, Just after i installed os snow leopard. All software is up to date only I think, thanks to apple they droped support for logic express. Thanks for any suggestions.

"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

Yosemite 10.10 problem - 10.9 drive not mac extended format ??

I am attempting to upgrade to 10.10 and the system is not allowing me to install on my 10.9 drive because it thinks the drive is either not mac extended formatted or journal not activated. It will not install the update. It requires a drive format or activate Journal. I'm new to Apple and this does not compute! The system says the 10.9 drive is formatted as mac os-extended (Journal).
Thanks,

The other thing that the installer checks on before it install OS X is that the disk drive is formatted with GUID partition mapping.

Final Cut Studio crashing upon opening whenever external drives are active

Hello folks,
I've gotten some great advice on this forum for a while now, through reading other posts. But now I'm hoping I can get some directly tailored advice, as I'm floundering a bit. Thanks in advance for your time, as I've tried to be as thorough as possible in my description of the problems and as-yet failed attempts at solutions.
The project is a full length documentary, and I'm having repeated, regular problems with Final Cut 6.0.5 crashing when I try to open the application.
Now, here are some of the details. FCP will open just fine, if the external hard drives that contain all the media for the project are NOT turned on. However, if the drives are turned on, Final Cut will begin to open, the white box with the application name, registration information, and whatnot will begin, and it will freeze up, hanging there until I force quit. When I force quit, and look at the report, the only information I can get out of it is that the cause is "hanging", though as I'm no expert on reading crash reports, I'm sure I'm missing a lot.
Once I force quit, FCP will not entirely quit. It remains "open", in that I can't open the application again, and my FCP icon in the dock has the little white dot next to it (I'm OS 10.5.6). However, if I eject the drives (which I am sometimes allowed to do, other times I'm told that the drives are still in use by an application), then FCP does resolve its force-quit, and is entirely quit. I can reopen it again immediately afterward with no problem, assuming I haven't turned the drives back on. If I'm not able to eject the drives, then I have to restart.
My workaround so far has been to open FCP without the drives being active, turn on the drives, and then open the project file I want. This works, but seems to be evidence of some serious problems. If I'm opening FCP, and I have the user preference of "open last project upon launch" switched off, why would the hard drives affect FCP? Is FCP trying to read the drives even though it doesn't need any media from them to open in a brand-new project file?
Other issues that have arisen are occasional freezes while in FCP. I will have FCP open (using the workaround), playing fine, and suddenly a click somewhere in the timeline will lead to the spinning beachball. This happens most frequently if I am quickly changing clips, or if I have just brought another application to the foreground and then gone back to FCP. When this happens, and I force quit, once again FCP does not entirely quit, but has to have all the drives ejected to fully quit.
About the drives themselves - I am using 4 GTech 1 TB drives, all of which spin up normally, though two of them are now over 2 years old.
About the software - I reinstalled FCP, and the problems existed beforehand and afterwards. I may do it again.
About the operating system - I archived and installed Leopard, I did not back everything up and zero the drive before installing Leopard.
About the project files - All project files are under 75 MB, most are much smaller. Since it is a long-form piece with over 200 hours at this point, I've been creating multiple projects.
About the render files - I've flushed them repeatedly.
About corrupt files - I've looked through my capture bins and trashed any suspiciously small QuickTime files.
About FCP preferences - I've used FCS Remover a couple times, and the problem reappears.
About permissions - I've repaired permissions repeatedly, and the problem reappears.
About the rest of the system - Compressor won't allow me to submit batches, but from what I understand that is an issue with Apple QMaster. Also, the problems with FCP were there before Compressor was not working. I just today had a problem with System Preferences crashing once it opened, but after deleting the plist for System Preferences it seems to be back up and running fine.

MacPro
2 x 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon

FCP 6.0.5
Thanks again!

Editor, Don't Think I've Forgotten <Edited by Host>

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your input on this. I went through several steps, including most of the ones you recommended, and came upon what seems to be the problem (knock on wood).
My editing setup is one MacPro, 4 G-Raid drives, and one Sony DSR-11 digital video deck. After clearing up more space the G-Raid drives to bring them to about 10% free space, things seemed to be running smoother - there were less crashes within FCP. However, I was still getting crashes on opening FCP, at the same "splash screen" point (after all the AE Effects and Video Effects had loaded).
Running Disk Utility on all drives showed no problems, and unfortunately I don't have DiskWarrior (though that may be an upcoming purchase).
It wasn't until I went through your suggestion of starting FCP with the individual drives connected that I got somewhere. FCP would start up fine with one or even two drives connected, but not with three or four. Doing a little research on that brought me to two threads on Creative Cow about G-Raid drives and daisy-chaining:
http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/176/856609
http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/176/856570
Once I put two of the drives onto the rear FireWire800 port, and two of the drives into the front FireWire800 port, with the DSR-11 still in the back FireWire 400 port, my problems disappeared. Huzzah! The G-Raid folks recommend no more than three FireWire devices connected at a time, and lightening the load on the FireWire port by uncoupling the four-drive long daisy-chain has immediately helped. Now, I'll keep an eye on it, and may potentially buy a PCI card if something goes wonky again, but I am very happy to have gotten things up and running again. Cheers!

What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
It sounds like you are in the Elements Organizer that came with your version of Premiere Elements.
That ? in the top left corner of the thumbnail indicates a file that is no longer in the hard drive save location as it was
when a copy of the file was included in the Elements Organizer.
1. Do you know that the file(s) still exist? Could you have moved, deleted, or renamed file/folder involved? Can you go
to the hard drive save location for the file and actually find it there?
If you are working with Photoshop Elements instead of Premiere Elements, you have posted in the wrong forum. In that case, please post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator to see your thread here and move it from here to there.

External Drives not showing up in finder

I have two external hard drives that will not show up in my finder as if it is not activated in my Sidebar or Desktop (even though it is). They don't even show up in my Macintosh HD directory. My other external drives work fine and show up everywhere they are supposed to. This is happening on both my computer and another Intel 8-core, so I am assuming it has something to do with the external drives. They do, however, operate as expected when accessed through the network and when using spotlight.

Sounds like the Invisible bit got set on those drives. Take a look at the article I wrote on the problem as it first appeared in Tiger:
http://www.pinkmutant.com/articles/invisible.html
There is a new wrinkle to this old bug in Leopard, where the invisible bit is sometimes immediately being reset back to invisible. So far there is no solution to that. See this discussion:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5751668
If you are lucky the reset described in the first article will work for you.

Business Rule Library not activated

Hi, can anyone please tell me what drives the activation of Business Rule library?I am currently working on Consolidation of Investments and I have configured the dimension properties, application parameters as stated in 340.But my businessrules librray is not activated and hence I am not able to define the rules of consolidation.
Edited by: 281642 on Aug 30, 2011 6:32 AM

Hi,
Which business rules have you selected?
The business rules at the appset level are visible only if the automatic adjustment business rule is selected in your application.
Hope this helps.

Error "Personalization not activated." when trying to set personal

Hi Everyone,
Was wondering if anyone has encountered this situation.
I have a crystal report reporting off of sap bw using bw mdx driver which I view through an iview in SAP portal. When I select the parameter values for a parameter using the picklist, I try to personalize it and I get "Personalization not activated."
I find that some parameters I am able to personalize, but when I try to view the report again the settings are not kept.
Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Ingo,
Thanks for the hint, We enabled personalization, but we encountered another issue. It seems that the value that gets stored is invalid.
i.e.
I select the value for cost centre.
The value of the cost centre is [0COSTCENTER].[BTT10000011003] - Accounting
The value that gets stored for personalization is 0BTT1/11003. I confirmed in the DSO as well that this was the value stored. When I try to run the report using the personalized values I get an database connector error.
Running the query in rsrt we get the following error Value "0BTT1/11003" for variable "Cost Centre" is invalid.
Any ideas?

ORA-21779: duration not active

Guys, it looks like nobody knows much about this error and Oracle support is no help.
The problem seem to be machine/environment specific.
We get this exception consistently on some of the oracle/intermedia queries on two out of six identical environments. The queries are run from a servlet, only number and varchar2 fields used, no LOBs.
The configuration across all the environments:
WL 8.1
Oracle 9.2.0.7.0
Oracle JDBC 9.2.0.5
Some online sources mention that the ORA-21779 error is fixed by some Oracle patch sets, but we've done a cumulative update a couple of weeks ago, maybe someone knows a specific patch or the reason for the problem?
Thanks,
Vitaly

Lightroom 5 saying product not activated

i attempt to activate my copy of Lightroom 5 via my Mac. The key code which was with my copy, says my code is not active..... I am unable to get my serial numbers to complete my installation. I have returned a copy i purchased from BestBuy once already because of the code not being activated at purchase. Now the second copy which was returned is still having the same issue... can any help on what i should do?

I get this to when trying to install from CC or standalone, thing is i have cleaned my C:\ drive since all apps tend to install crap there, it is
a 115 gig ssd and i am down to 11 gig free, i removed a lot of stuff including some uninstall info that eats a lot of space.
But where does the installer find the information? i have searched and deleted every mention of lightroom in the registry, god that was a lot,
Still the old version is deleted from the disk with extreme prejudice is there no switch that makes it ignore any old versions and install anyway?

Bluetooth peripheral device driver not found-samsung fascinate

I have a samsung fascinate and a brand new dell inspiron laptop. I cannot get these two together via bluetooth. The laptop states the "bluetooth peripheral device driver not found."
Are there any solutions for this?
Thanks!

Sure! Try this: First, make sure you have activated Bluetooth pairing on your Fascinate. You can do this by going to your home screen, select Menu > Settings > Wireless & Networks > Bluetooth. Once Bluetooth is on, have your Fascinate scan for your computer by going to Bluetooth settings > Scan for devices. You might be able to pair them that way, instead of trying to find the phone using your computer.

Hard drive not visible

Hello,
My Hard Drive I use for Time Machine does not show up anymore on my Desktop suddenly.
It is visible under disk utility but does not show up in finder , nor in /Volumes.
In disk utility it stays greyed out as being not activated
When tryin to activate it, it indicates I should repair the harddrive.
Checking and repairing the hard drive indicates the drive is ok.
I am somehwat stuck now. Anybody can help?

I had recently "lost" my drive owing to a corrupted catalogue tree caused by a failing RAM chip. Had to boot up from an external drive, run diskwarrior to see the hd again, back up everything, then re-install the operating system.
Since you do not have backups, it is time for you to purchase an external firewire hard drive, install the operating system and boot from there. I purchased enclosure and drive separately...was cheaper.
I recommend to test your RAM...purchase the software memtest...for $1.39 US. Keneral panics frequently indicate failing RAM.

A105-S4384 DVD drive not recognized after replacement.

I've seen the posts about deleting the filters from the registry on upgrade to Vista. That doesn't help my case.
I replaced the stock Mat**bleep**a drive when it stopped reading any type of disc. The replacement is a Toshiba TS-L632, which was sold as a compatible drive.
What I see is that in the BIOS, the drive is not recognized as Optical Drive, but on the Boot tab, the drive DOES show up as a boot option "TSST-L632H-..."
I do not see a CD/DVD drive option at all in the Windows Hardware Manager (ie. it isn't a matter of seeing an exclamation mark over the drive... it isn't there at all).
If I insert a disc, I hear the drive rev up and spin, but nada afterwards. There is no light active on the drive. Trying to install the L632's firmware is no good, as the installer just pops up a dialogue with "Drive not found!!" message.
I'm at wit's end. The Toshiba site isn't helpful in confirming the compatibility of the drive, but you'd hope that if they make laptops and laptop drives, they'd be compatible.

Although the drive shows up in the boot menu, can you actually boot from it?
Some Toshiba laptops needed the drives to be in CS (cable select) mode in order for them to function properly with the laptop. This can be done on an after-market drive by shorting two pins on the connector (and I have done it before, so it does work), but that may or may not be the problem. But the computer I had to do it to was quite a bit older than yours (M10-something).

Hi AnkitG,
Is the Vision Development Run Time License activated on the same computer that has the full version of Vision Development Module installed? According to this KnowledgeBase article, that can cause an invalid license error when attempting to deploy your application. I would also be interested to see a screenshot of your License Manager.
Thank you dstranb, It was useful information unfortunatley I didnt activated the Vision aquisition software, I try activating that and check.
thanks,
