DVD 1270 not being seen in xp to install at start up windows 7

DVD 1270 not being seen at startup in xp to install windows 7. Boot order works - the machine sees a cd but not a dvd. Installed latest driver for lightscribe from this site. Also tried two other dvds - one a hp 1160 which works on another machine it sees the dvd on other machine running w7 but not on this new one - ASUS mthrbd P867-M Le. ASUS says it is the DVD and to try another. Seems like it may be a config issue. Any ideas? Thanks

Well, if the drive is good, then try a different SATA port. It might be that the OS is looking for the drive per the BIOS and it is not on the SATA 0 port. BTW: Does this motherboard have 6GB SATA ports? Do not use them for DVD drive.

I've used an external drive for time machine which has important files on it. After trying to back up my computer, it suddenly needed to be "repaired" by utilities. Now it's not being "seen" at all! How do I recover my important files off the drive?

If the external drive can be seen at all in Disk Utility, follow the instructions for repair here.

At present I have no power to the Gen 7, so need to get some power to it I think. I pressed the buttons as you suggested, but nothing is showing up at this point. Thank you for your response as the more I can rule out before I take it back the better I think.

LaCie d2 500GB Quadra Hard Drive Not Being Seen By Time Machine

Hello all,
I have a LaCie d2 500GB Quadra Hard Drive Not being seen by Time Machine hooked up to my iMac via firewire 800. My iMac is running latest updates etc. Have raised a support ticket and was given the following instructions by LaCie:
Posted: 08 November 2007 @ 00:00
Thank you for contacting LaCie Technical Support. Make sure the drive is mounting and you can assess files on it on your 10.5 system. If you can then you will need to reformat the drive to make it compatible with time machine.
Warning! All data on the external drive will be destroyed in this process.
Step 1: Run Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
Step 2: Click on the LaCie hard drive's 'physical' entry, usually the third entry in the list
Step 3: Click on the Partition tab
Step 4: Change 'Current Scheme' to '1 Partition'
Step 5: Change the name of the drive back to what you would like it to be
Step 6: The format needs to be Mac OS Extended, with or without journaling
Step 7: Click on the Options... button
Use "Apple Partition Map" partition scheme on a PowerPC-based Mac.
Use "GUID" partition scheme on an Intel-based Mac.
Step 8: Click on OK
Step 9: Click on Apply
Step 10: click on Erase at the bottom of the screen, then confirm the erase.
The drive should start to be reformatted which should take only a few seconds and show up on the desktop with a new icon. Once it has you can then use it with time machine.
I have done all of the above and it is still not being seen. Anyone had a similar issue or got the above to actually work?
Thanks in advance!!!!

Ryan,
Check drive volume name and also the Computer name. Apple released a tech note recommending that both be limited to only the characters A-Za-z0-9 (no dashes, hyphens, or other special characters.
If you can, send the Apple System Profiler report to me at the addres in my profile. Imay be able to see something there. I have helped another user with similar problems, but with a LaCie USB drive. He got things working by repeating the recommended steps, and double checking everything.
As others have rported, this should work, so there may be something else preventing proper operation.
If the drive is usable from Finder, but Time Machine cannot use it, there is something related in how Time Machine is viewing the drive.

Why can I not load pictures from a micro SD 64gb using scan disk adapter plugged into an Apple iPad camera connection kit. I have the iPhoto app but pictures not being seen on iPad. So incredibly frustrating. Apple please fix this.

Do you have a smaller capacity micro SD card to try? I seem to remember from past posts that users were having problems with cards larger than 32GB, however, Apple's page doesn't mention this.

iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not appearing in iTunes

Anybody know what's up with the menu.xml.files not being available for DW after installing on a new comp?

Anybody know what's up with the menu.xml.files not being available for DW after installing on a new comp?

Usually that error can be cleared up by renaming the personal config folder. Turn on your OS's hidden files and then go to...
C: > Users > your username > AppData > Roaming > Dreamweaver (version) > your language > configuration
Rename the configuration folder configuration-old and start DW up. That should create an entirely new configuration folder and correct the menu.xml file.

Cds and dvds not being "seen" by itunes

i recently restored my c drive to fix dragging in my audio. i reinstalled itunes and reloaded all my files. now, when i insert a cd, the window that pops up with my playing options does not list itunes. everything plays fine in wmp and vaio zone. itunes, however, doesn't even recognize that there is a disk in the drive. i have told both itunes and windows that i want itunes to be my default, but nothing changes. any ideas?

Do you want to import the songs, have them in your library and play them?
1. Insert your CD, and look at the initial menu that comes up. See if iTunes is there, and click on it. But by the sound of what you're saying it doesn't appear to be.
2. Go into itunes, and under FILE, select IMPORT... then a new window will appear that lets you find whatever file or cd you're looking for. Go to the drop down menu and select "AUDIO CD" if you see it. It should appear where the name of your CD/DVD drive usually does.
3. Re-install iTunes with the newest version.

Equium A60: DVD-RAM not being recognised properly

Hiya!
I have a EA60 and my Mat****a DVD-RAM UJ-820S is being not being recognised by the Notebook properly. When I go into Device Drivers it says the driver has loaded but comes up error code 41. I've reloaded the Driver and the Device and this makes no difference.
I also bought a new Pioneer DVD-RAM and this comes up with the same error code.
Anyone out there can help me please?

You could try this method, maybe it works:
Start Registry Editor
Locate the UpperFilters value under the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
Locate the LowerFilters value under the same key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
Quit Registry Editor and restart your system. Now windows should recognize your ODD correctly.

Airport not being seen

I was able to set up an AirPort Extreme that is being seen by my mac mini. However, my G5 does not see the AirPort Extreme network it created. I have tried to manually type the network in, change security settings, and numerous other setting changes suggested by my DSL service provider. I have about 10 hours in getting this to work and I'm quite at a loss.
Two things of note. As the G5 is my work computer and the mac mini is the kids, I decided to reset the AirPort Extreme and try setting it up on the G5 as I really need the internet connection. The G5 still did not recognize it at factory settings in the Airport Utility and the mac mini did.
Secondly, the G5 does see the 2 Airport Express's I've had in the house and the Airport Extreme didn't till I made a physical Ethernet connection. I would assume the G5 airport card is working fine then. It seems only one or the other can see the Express's, not both.
Can someone point me in the right direction to getting both these computers to see the Airport Extreme network. Thank you.
Duel 2.3 GHz PowerPC G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9) Airport Extreme 802.11n, Siemans 4100 DSL modem, 2 Airport Express

It looks like your correct. This morning I moved my G5 downstairs and physically hooked it up to the Airport Extreme, went back to factory defaults and redid the whole process. Disconnected it and the G5 recognized it wirelessly. I then moved the G5 upstairs (next to the mac mini) and didn't get the signal although the mac mini had a full strength signal. I then lugged it halfway to the base station (12 feet) and the G5 picked up a very weak signal (2 bars). Unplugging all the phones didn't help.
The signal on the AirPort is set to Automatic, it seems to like 11 as that is what appears in parens. I see where I can select a channel in the AirPort Utility, however should it be changed there or is there a way to change the channel on the G5 itself.
Thank you.

Aim buddies not being seen online

is there any chance my aim buddies are being seen offline all the time? its just.. I added people to my buddies and we talked once, but I haven't seen them again anymore, I can send offline messages to some, it says they'll read them when they go online, but some other contacts i can't send them offline messages.
now I ran tests with an aim account i own, adding it as a buddy on my ichat @mac.com account, and when I went online on the aim account it did show on my ichat account, and also sent some offlines messages and I did receive them, but its me in the same computer not like faraway as everyone else, idk if that matters.
now, do I have a technical problem? if so, how can I solve it?
or have my friends just not gotten back online, or they blocked me or what? :S
thanks for the help.

Hi,
By Default ichat does not fully log out of AIM when you shut down iChat.
This is partially so that you can get Off Line Messages when you start up your computer.
What it also does is start up iChat if You have it shut down but your Computer On.
Now you can (Sometimes) get a Message from AIM (AimSysMessage and Screen Name) asking if you want Off Line Messages.
If you reply or indicate NO to this they can only be restated on the AIM Website
Login to AIM web Pages then go to your Account Page the setting is there.
iChat can be made to Log Off line (Status as Off Line ) with a setting in the iChat Menu > Preferences > General Section
First Enable the Menu Bar icon.
You now have full access to "When iChat is Quit, Set Status to Off Line".
Now in iChat 4 and 5 you can also set your self to be Invisible.
You appear Off Line to your Buddies but you can see if they are Online/Available/Away and so on.
In any version of iChat in the iChat menu > Preferences > Accounts > Security you can set which Buddies see you as On line in various Allow Options an Block options.
Add to this if you allow Multiple Logins and also have AIM Forwarding to a Mobile Phone.
Now think of all those setting applying to your Buddies.
Some maybe Invisible.
Some may not have added you to their Buddy list and have Allow Buddy List Only (Or even Allow Specific People) set.
Some may have set not to get Off Line Messages.
Some may appear to be "On-Line" but are having messages sent to their Mobile Phone which they are not (able to) answering.
Summary.
Due to the number of variables that you have not been able to provide info on it is difficult to say if you have a problem.
Based on your testing I would say not.
7:33 PM Thursday; January 21, 2010
Please, if posting Logs, do not post any Log info after the line "Binary Images for iChat"
hey but even if all the things you wrote happened, if I do send them offline messages, they have to get them at some moment right? like I wouldn't be able to send someone offline messages if he blocked me, so if I send him offline messages he'll totally get them someday right?

K230 - Additional 2GB RAM not being seen

My K230 came with 6GB RAM (3 of 4 slots used).
Purchased this stick...

It seems well seated but is not being detected.
Any pointers? Should this RAM be compatible? its PC2-5300.
help!

Send them back. If new RAM - by itself - does not work - the set should be returned.
If any one DIMM is 667 then they all will have to downclock

Ipod nano not being seen by computer, windows, 2000...

after over a week on the phone and attemting to get my computer to "see" my nano, and not being able to do so. and after going thru every trouble shooting guide given to me by apple i did get my nano to work.
I used every usb port but two, the two off the mother board, when i used one of them the nano took off and worked liked it was susposed to do, so...... you people who have this problem or know others pass the word use the mother board usb ports. nothing else.......

i resolved my computer, windows 2000, not seeing by i pod nano, by using the usb ports from the mother board. use no other usb ports, not usb hubs, or other circurt ports, just mother ports..................

Ei.cfg not being seen by windows installer on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit retail disk.

My problem is that the retail disk of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit has no ei.cfg restrictions. Instead of choosing the correct operating system ID, on install, the .cfg
is coming from some where else installing a custom version of windows that is a different version of windows than on the retail install disk that I have a software key to. Even though it recognizes the key as windows 7 the operating system no longer recognizes
the retail disk it was installed from as the same version of operating system. It seems that there is a pre operating system install to a volume that cant see the ei.cfg file on the windows retail disk. It is something like Windows ME or MCE and it is hard
to get past because it acts like the operating system after install. It looks like there is a complete install of windows 7 but it is only a version of ME or MCE in the 100MB range installed to a partition volume. I am given a User account Profile within
Application Data folder in the system. The actual windows system in its entirety does not exist in the partial virtual operating systems. All the installs are to Partition Volumes on the Partition of a GPT Server Partition on a Disk
on the Hard drive. All Virtual.
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit and 32bit retail disk is GSP1RMCHPXFRER_EN_DVD. The bios version on my Asus G75VX is American Megatrends version 206, V Bios version 80.04.97.00.13.N62G75500, EC version B14E140001. The operating system version is not the same
as the install disk. The boot configuration is; American Megatrends Bios Aptio Setup Utility installed. :\\?|GLOBALROOT\Device|HarddiskVolume1\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD.Backup.0001 Software build after install is Buildlab 7601.Win7Sp1_rtm.101119-1850 Client install

.reg file in text format http://1drv.ms/1m9RXL7.
The above information was taken after an install from the Microsoft Windows 7 64 bit retail disk purchased at Fry's and installed to my Asus G75VX. It is a Network Managed Client Server configuration that installs from the retail disk.

I have been dealing with this problem since the day I purchased the first notebook from Best Buy configured this way and it was not even an Asus. It was a Samsung Chronos i7. The Asus G75VX I have now is the third notebook in a row purchased from Best Buy
with the configuration right out of the un open retail box. None out of the three came with windows 7 installed. They had windows 8 64bit installed with the configuration. I purchased Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit attempting to get around the configuration
problem.
My main concern is that I use computers to do my legal documents in court cases in the United States Federal Courts and I am a pro se litigator and I have been litigating a civil action since 2011 that is still open in the federal court. I am also legally
disable and covered by Federal Communications Act FCC Rule 255. This configuration has Telephone software and equipment, Management Software and equipment, and Networking software and equipment all covered within FCC Rule 255. My notebook is unusable for litigation
or personal use as a Publicly Managed Network Client Server. I paid $1350.00 of my Social Security Disability income for the Asus G75VX and another $216.00 for Windows 7 Home Premium 32 and 64 bit DVD and that is not counting a list of other things to
now have a personal notebook computer I have to sat down beside me in public libraries, Colleges etc. to use their computers to do my legal work. It is illegal and total wrong and it is a violation of the Bill of Rights First and Fourth Amendments and Title
VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the American with Disability Act outside of 255.
