Drive overwrite checkbox appears to have disappeared after firmware update

Hi,
I replaced a faulty drive in my Iomega StorCenter 200d. Now I get a message saying Drive 1 overwrite required, but it seems there is no where I can force I can give permission for this happen.
In the end the only solution Lenovo support could offer was to rebuild the entire array which is not acceptable. 
After some research it appears that earlier versions of firmware had this option but in later versions of firmware this option seems to have vanished.
Can anybody please help shed light on how I can force a drive to be overwritten? Is there a hidden option somewhere or is this just an oversight on the part of Lenovo's software developers?
Kind Regards
Robert Andrews

Hello cotasa
What firmware version are you running on the unit? Also is the unit a ix2 or ix4?
If you are using 2.1.x, please click on the overwrite alert on the dashboard and follow the instructions from there.
If you are using 3.x firmware, please click on All Features>Drive Management>Settings.  There you will see a option to "add drives to storage system" check box,  that will be the option you would need to use to overwrite the marked (green stripes) disk.

  • Item in NOTES have disappeared after ipad update

    I updated my ipad with the latest update and I just noticed that several notes I had made in the notes app have disappeared.  Any way to get them back and what caused this.  I will also tell you that I noticed none of my notes were transferring to my iPhone or computer the past month so I can not retrieve them there.

    Hello, not sure if I'm having the same problem but it seems similar enough.
    My notes were fine after upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite, but more recently after the 10.10.1 update my Notes app is not displaying any notes. I have it set up so that they are all in iCloud (and I've checked that they still are). The real problem here (for me) is that the app itself seems to be broken; I can't create any new notes, it won't sync my notes from iCloud, and can't view my settings... can't do anything, really.
    I don't have a solution, but I just thought I'd add to the discussion. Hopefully it's a simple fix.

  • RSS feeds have disappeared after Mavericks update

    After updating to mavericks, my rss feeds in mail have disappeared?? Not sure why, hoping someone could shed some light on this for me........ thanks

    RSS feeds disappeared in Mountain Lion (10.8). If you want RSS feeds, you'll need to buy an application from the App Store.

  • All my events in my calendar have disappeared after it updated! Please help!

    Thunderbird updated and now all my events are gone! I updated lightening, but the events are still missing. I have a blank calendar..
    My Thunderbird is 31.1.1
    My lightening is 3.3.1
    Thank you

    We solved it. You know on the left hand its written calendar, and then under its written the name of the person/calendar. Well it was saying that, that specific calendar was momentarily unavailable. we double clicked it and it gave us the option of activating the calendar so we checked marked it. When we clicked ok or save it asked us to connect to our google account. After doing so we checked our calendar on google and found all of our events. Turns out we were lucky that thunderbird was saving the date we entered in gmail as well. We were never able to retrieve them on thunderbird, we had to retype everything. Sorry i am recounting this from memory so i might not be describing this 100% accuratly. I hope this helps you!

    It appears from many other posts that the " Keep This iPod in the Source List" function isn't included in iTunes 7 unfortunately. You can leave your feedback on it's absence at this link: Apple Product Feedback
    You can check out a workaround at this link which may help out for now: Create ready-to-sync playlists for Shuffles in iTunes 7

  • "On my Mac" folder including all my subfolders in Mail have disappeared after Yosemite install! HELP!

    "On my Mac" folder including all my subfolders in Mail have disappeared after OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2 install! What should I do?

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
              Envelope Index
              ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

    Dictation in text message = Does not work
    Speaking with Siri via activated with Home button = Does not work
    Speaking with Siri with "Raise to Speak' = WORKS
    Voice Memos = WORKS
    Speaker phone on call = WORKS
    Voice control instead of Siri = WORKS
    I've tried hard reset, settings reset, wiping and reloading backup...nothing. Was hoping 7.1 might offer some respite, but no dice....
    I was hoping 7.1 would somehow solve it.

    I had the 1Password icon on my toolbar but it disappeared after an update. How do I get the icon back to the toolbar. I have tried all of the help instructions but none have worked.

    In Safari preferences extensions  or extension gallery, its there and you should re-enable or re-install as long as you have it purchased from Mac App Store.

  • Personal Hotspot menu disappeared after I updated my iPhone to iOS 4.3.3

    Personal Hotspot menu disappeared after I updated my iPhone to iOS 4.3.3
    My carrier provides tethering service and I used it often so I don't think this is from network problem.
    What I remember is that after I upgrade my iPhone to iOS 4.3.3 I once activated personal hotspot function and it was hanged.
    So I reboot my iPhone and the menu disappeared. Is this another bug that is from iOS 4.3.3??

    What is the exact wording of the error message you received?
    Has your iPhone been jailbroken or modified to work with other
    than the original wireless provider?
    Not wise to post IMEI or ICCID in the clear, FYI. I have asked
    the hosts to edit that info in your post.

  • Where did the "plus" button go to add contacts.  It disappeared after I updated my phone.

    Where did the "plus"button go on my iphone to add contacts? It disappeared after I updated my phone.

    The iTunes app cannot disappear ... it may be on a different screen.
    Regardless, you can force it to your home screen by doing:
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout

  • Problems after firmware update 52.0.007

    Hi,
    I got my phone back after the shop fixed a problem and updated the firmware to the latest version 52.0.007.
    But now I have following problems:
    I can't get the calendar anymore to show up on the homescreen, even after checking the checkbox to do so
    The Radio app. is gone
    Does anyone has a solution for this?
    Iwan

    It may sound crazy but sometimes you need to "hard reset" device after firmware update (beware all data erased) by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by yourself). Sometimes UDP = User Data Prersevation feature of 5800XM can carry over corrupt entries when updating.
    Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

  • Restoring after firmware update - Ways :)

    Hi All,
    Nowadays we are receiving quite a few complaints that customers are unable to restore the application after updating their firmware.  I would like all to discuss to come up with some ways to restore their applications after firmware update.
    Before updating firmware
    Customer can backup his phone using Nokia PC Suite's Content Copier application.
    He can store his Contacts and Messages using Nokia Communication Centre as .csv file or .txt file.
    For his Contacts he can sync with pc suite supported sync applications.
    Messages he can store in Memory card and he can make a backup of memory card in PC.
    If he is using Nokia PC Suite for his Multimedia items he can use Image Store if he is using Nokia PC Suite or Nokia Photos if he is using Nokia OVI Suite.
    For Music he can use Nokia Music Manager or Nokia Music.
    Once after updating his firmware, if he is unable to restore he can get those from above said applications.
    If his calendar entries are not restored(as in case of some of Nokia e 71s and Nokia N 95/95 8 GBs), for God's sake if he has got one more similar device(or device having switch application on phone), he can restore the backup file to another phone having switch application, then he can transfer his data (Contacts, Calenders etc ) to his original phone
    Dear Forum members, if you have got any other work around please let me know regarding the same, which will help our customers

    Hi,
    If you have issue in Nokia PC Suites, [subject to your phone's compatibility with Nokia OVI Suite 2.0.0.10 ],
    you can install Nokia OVI Suite 2.0.0.10 and check if you can take backup and restore it later.
    Also i would suggest to use USB for taking backup, since it will be faster than Bluetooth.  Also you can select one category at one time(say backup contacts alone, then Calendar, then messages etc and so on ....)
    Its better to skip memory card backup while backup-ing other Phone data for faster backup.  Memory card backup can be done separtely(since it wont be affetcted while updating firmware, users can safely remove memory card while updating firmware)
    Nowadays though recent phones has got UDP(User Data Prevention i.e., even if you update your phone's firmware, your data wont get erased ), still it is recommended to backup your phone data.
    Hope this could help
    I welcome our experts to add more details related to this topic.

  • Lost Internet after firmware update!

    I have use this router some years, and I have no problem, then I have made an Firmware update, and now sometimes I have lost internet, not connection but only Internet. Can I get a default firmware or where is problem?

    I have also had problems connecting to the internet
    I upgraded my WRT54G version 2 router's firmware to 4.21.1 last week, taking the opportunity to upgrade after the area I live in suffered a temporary power cut, which somehow caused my router settings to reset, even though the router was not switched on at the time.
    Since upgrading I can connect wirelessly to the router, but I cannot access the internet via wireless. I am using exactly the same settings as I did before the upgrade and also made a backup of these settings after the upgrade, but every day I attempt to connect wirelessly I lose my net access again (but by restoring the backup settings - the very same settings already held by the router - I regain my net access, but then the next day I have to repeat the whole process.
    Yesterday I tried disabling the wireless security, which allowed me to access the net again, but soon as the security is re-enabled, the problem reoccurs.
    I have a laptop, a desktop and 2 PS3s connecting wirelessly via the router and have had no problem with any of them until this upgrade. I have just reapplied my wireless settings & will try again tomorrow and will attempt using a wired connection and post an update as soon as i'm done.

  • Ovi Maps 3 don´t start after firmware update (6220...

    Hello!
    a few days ago I installed ovi maps 3 on my nokia 6220c and it works well. Later I updated the firmware from version 03.06 to 05.15.
    After firmware update ovi maps don´t start-> "Cannot open application. Install latest version from nokia.com/maps."
    But Nokia Map Updater says, there are no updates for my maps.
    What´s wrong?
    Can I reinstall Ovi Maps 3? Or is it possible to install Ovi Maps 3 new?
    thanks

    Hello!
    The Map Updater said: "there is no update for your phone" ...because maps 3 is already installed.
    But in the meantime I have found a solution!!
    I downloaded maps 2.0 from the German nokia page and installed it. Later I started Map Updater and could update to Maps 3 and now it works!!!
    I think the problem was: I first updated to Maps 3 and later updated the firmware. There was any older version of fixes included in the firmware update, so Maps 3 was damaged...
     thanks
    sorry for my bad English
