DVD/cdrw not working correctly

I have a Satellite A135-S2246 running W/Vista with a Mat**bleep**a 770 DVD/CDRW drive. The DVD/CDRW will only read CD's and not DVD's. It will read a music CD but not the Toshiba Recovery disc or movie. I'm not sure when this started. I have already attempted deleting the upper & lower filters in the registry. I have also tried deleting the device from Device Manager, hoping it would reinstall correctly. TIA for any help.
Solved!

The DVD and CD read/write are separate.
It's the most likely component to fail. Any of these part numbers should work.

  • HP Pavilion DV5 1235DX - DVD/CDRW Not Working

    Recently the DVD/CDRW drive in my HP Pavilion has stopped working.  This is the original drive that came with the laptop which is a LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD±R/RW with Double Layer Support.  It has had a couple of problems in the past that like the system ceasing to recognize it or not being able to open the drive that I was able to fix myself.  However, now the drive won't read or recognize discs.  The Computer recognizes the drive, lists it as operable, and all drivers are up to date.  When I insert a DVD/CD there are no sounds or lights to indicate that it is trying to read a disc.  Also, I can only open the drive either mechanically or through the Device Manager by clicking on "scan for hardware changes."  It will no longer open any other way.  
    Is this something that I can fix?  or does this indicate that the drive is dead and needs to be replaced?  If so, I've had a little trouble identifying a replacement model on the HP website for PartSurfer and could use a suggestion.  Also, if anyone is familiar with the issue i've been having as described above and is aware of a solution I'll be happy to try this first. Thanks!

  • DVD Drive not working correctly after Lion install

    Lion is doing something strange to the DVD drive in my Mac Pro. Sometimes it works, sometimes it just freezes up apps that are associated with it (such as finder, disk utility etc). The only way to eject is a reboot. It will not read the contents in this scenerio.
    I have tried different DVDs, repairing permissions - everything you can think of. I am 99% confident this is somehow related to a bug in Lion.
    Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I may have found it.
    I use Kepler 64b and I do have an Apple 1.6 JDK installed in the JavVirtualMachines folder.

  • Output AC3 for DVD is not working correctly

    My FCPX 85 minute project is in 5.1 surround. Plays nice on the timeline and I exported a master file which sounds fine. ProRes with LPCM 5.1 audio.
    Now I need to make a DVD standard 480p with Dolby AC3 5.1. But when I output AC3 - either directly from FCPX or sending through Compressor, the channels are incorrect - ie, the audio comes out of the wrong speakers.
    No matter how I set up AC3 output from Compressor, the channels are messed up. Any ideas anyone?

    Can you post a screen shot of the Dolby DIgital encoder tab with your settingss?

  • Mat****a DVD-RAM drive in Sat M55-325 is not working correctly

    The DVD drive from Mat****a (uj-840s) is not working correctly.
    One symptom of the problem is that its icon does not appear in 'My Computer'
    anymore and it does not recognise CDs.
    I went to the Drive's properties through the Device Manager and saw the following message:
    "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)
    Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device."
    Following the Troubleshooter instruction, I have tried updating my driver through
    the Device Manager but it tells me that the current driver is the most up to date version.
    In the Drive's properties I found that my driver version is: 5.1.2535.0
    I have RecordNow from Sonic/Roxio that came preinstalled on the computer.
    Is this a simple problem that has a solution?
    I can not think of other actions to find the root of the problem.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Check please this Microsoft page http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;320553
    I have had similar problem. The ODD (optical disc drive) was not shown in Windows explorer. Method 1 from this page solved the problem. Please try the same and let me know if ODD works again.

  • Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in preview.

    Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in encore preview. This only happens for a Blu ray project. When a user presses the menu button it should go to the previous menu they were on but it goes to the main menu. When they press the title button they should go to the main menu but it doesn't do anything. My DVD projects work as expected.I've tried creating a new "test" project with different footage and still get the same undesirable results.
    Overrides grayed out and set to "not set" for timelines and menus.Project settings and build are set to blu ray. Also I've noticed when I preview a Bluray project the preview window shows a red colored disc next to the Title button when viewing the timelines and green when playing the menus but not so for a DVD project it displays red if motion menus and or timelines are not rendered/encoded. I'm not using motion menus and all the media is encoded according to the project specs.
    I've searched this forum but couldn't find the answer. Any help or redirects to a solution would be appreciated. Working with CS5. Thanks.

    I found out on my Samsung Blu ray player the remote has a tools button on it that brings up audio, angle, chapter selection etc.and also title selection which is actually the menus and the timelines unfortunately. It's not as easy or direct as last menu selected but it's a workaround at least. I also plan on using a pop up menu. I'll let you know.

  • Bootcamp not Working Correctly on Macbook Pro

    Hello,
    I am trying to install Windows 7 or 8 onto my Macbook Pro with Bootcamp.
    Once I have opened the Bootcamp program it all works fine and I can go through the steps perfectly, it will appear to partition the HDD correctly and it will recognise the Windows install DVD correctly.
    However, once my Macbook Pro restarts at the end of the process it boots up and the screen stays white, nothing happens and since I have a gaming keyboard and mouse the lights light up on it for about 5 seconds when it restarts then they go off (Off meaning they aren't powered). The screen will stay white for aslong as I can tell, I left it for 3 hours and the screen was still white.
    So I thought there may be a problem with how it selects the the startup disk, so I boot it up into disk utility then select the DVD again and it stays white, again.
    Anyone know why this is not working correctly? I have tired this with mutliple install DVD's whether they be Windows 8 or Windows 7. I also do not want to use a program that creates a virtual machine, I would like to run Windows 7 to the full so that I can play games with the maximum amount of FPS.
    If you have any questions do not hesitate to let me know.
    Thank you for your time.
    Best Regards,
    Kieran J.

    Does it now work only on battery? or using the power supply?
    If only on the power supply use a grounded plug.
    Otherwise try reseating touchpad cable. Post the size and year of your MBP.

  • Sorting not working correctly for date field in alv report

    Hi All,
    My report displays many rows also containing date type fields of bldat,budat .
    When I sort the report selecting field of type bldat budat the sorting is not correct for the year.
    Ex:
    Invoice doc dat
    01-25-2011
    01-21-2011
    02-02-2011
    10-25-2010
    11-20-2010
    If I use ascending then it is sorted as :
    Invoice doc dat
    01-21-2011
    01-25-2011
    02-02-2011
    10-20-2010
    10-25-2010
    Why the sorting is not working correct for year.(2010 records should have been first).
    The field wa_tab-bldat is of type char10.
    It is populated as wa_tab-bldat = bsak-bldat.
    Kindly suggest what can be done.

    The field wa_tab-bldat is of type char10
    Then what it does is correct.
    Refer to type datum...it will work

  • If statement within a view is not working correctly ?

    Hi all,
    maybe i am wrong but i think the if statement within a view is not working correctly. See code down below.
    I would like to use the Hallo World depending on the page attribute isFrame with or without all the neccessary html tags. Therefore i have embedded the htmlb tags in an if statement. But for any reason if isframe is initial it isn't working. It would be great if anybody could help me.
    <%@page language="abap"%>
    <%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb"%>
    <% if not isframe is initial. %>
      <htmlb:content design="design2003">
         <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
    <% endif. %>
    hallo world
    <% if not isframe is initial. %>
         </htmlb:page>
      </htmlb:content>
    <% endif. %>
    thanks in advance and best regards
    Matthias Hlubek

    Matthias,
    The short answer: your example is <b>NOT</b> going to work. The long answer will probably 5 pages to describe. So first let me rewrite the example so that it could work, and then give a short version of the long answer. Do not be disappointed if it is not totally clear. It is rather complicated. (See the nice form of IF statements that are possible since 620.)
    <%@page language="abap"%>
    <%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb"%>
    <% if isframe is <b>NOT</b> initial. %>
    <htmlb:content design="design2003">
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
        hallo world
      </htmlb:page>
    </htmlb:content>
    <% else. %>
      hallo world
    <% endif. %>
    So why does your example not work? Let us start with a simple tag:
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
      </htmlb:page>
    Now, for each tag, we have effectively the opening part (<htmlb:page>), an optional body, and then the closing part (</htmlb:page>). We are now at the level of the BSP runtime processing one tag. What the runtime does not know, is whether the tag wants to process its body or not. Each tag can decide dynamically at runtime whether the body should be processed. So the BSP compiler generates the following code:
      DATA: tag TYPE REF TO cl_htmlb_page.
      CREATE OBJECT tag.
      tag->title = 'Top Level Navigation view'.
      IF tag->DO_AT_BEGINNING( ) = CONTINUE.
      ENDIF.
      tag->DO_AT_END( ).
    You should actually just debug your BSP code at ABAP level, and then you will immediately see all of this. Now, let us mix in your example with our code generation. First you simplified example:
    <% if isframe is NOT initial. %>
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
    <% endif. %>
    <% if isframe is NOT initial. %>
      </htmlb:page>
    <% endif. %>
    And then with our generated code. Look specifically at how the IF/ENDIF blocks suddenly match!
    if isframe is NOT initial.
      DATA: tag TYPE REF TO cl_htmlb_page.
      CREATE OBJECT tag.
      tag->title = 'Top Level Navigation view'.
      IF tag->DO_AT_BEGINNING( ) = CONTINUE.
    endif.
    if isframe is NOT initial.
      ENDIF.
      tag->DO_AT_END( ).
    endif.
    You can see that your ENDIF statements are closing IF blocks generated by the BSP compiler. Such a nesting will not work. This is a very short form of the problem, there are a number of variations, and different types of the same problem.
    The only way to solve this problem, is probably to put the body into a page fragment and include it like I did above with the duplicate HelloWorld strings. But this duplicates source code. Better is to put body onto a view, that can be processed as required.

  • ** Filtering is not working correctly in ALV (REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY)

    Hi Friends,
    We have one Z report that output is displayed in ALV. We are using the standard FM 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY. 
    We have requirement to remove leading zeros for the field like Material Number (MATNR), Equipment Number (EQUNR) etc. We did the changes by applying the field catalog properties as below.
    lw_fieldcat-lzero = space.
    lw_fieldcat-no_zero = 'X'.
    After this, the MATNR and EQUNR is displayed correctly in the ALV. (Leading zeros are suppressed). But, when we do filter for these fields, in the filter window it displays all the values with leading zeros.
    1. We don't understand why it is showing in the Filter widow with all leading zeros. All it shows all the records instead of unique items.
    Later on, we removed the above fieldcat coding. Then, we have called the CONVERSION_EXIT routines (in the domain) for the fields to remove leading zeros.
    Now, the MATNR and EQUNR is displayed correctly (without leading zeros) in ALV. When we do filter, it is also doing filtering correctly. But, when we do filter which have EQUNR having long values (after zero suppression), it is not working correctly. i.e no items are displayed in the ALV.
    Not only for this items. If we filter character columns which have long text, it is not filtering correctly.
    2. It is not able to understand why the filtering is not working for long items. But in the standard report, the filtering is working correctly.
    We are using SAP ECC 6.0.
    Friends, can you clarify the about doubts. It is surprising for me.
    Kind regards,
    Jegathees P.
    Our customer is asked to remove the leading zeros for the numeric field

    Hi Clemens Li
    I agreed on your point. When we define the Internal table the type for element EQUNR & QUMNR , we are referring the SAP data element for EQUNR, QMNUM field.
    Our doubt is even though we refer the standard data element, in the ALV display, it shows with leading zeros and also it creates problems in the filtering and in the filter window all values instead of unique nos.
    Hi Abhii
    I have given below the fieldcat coding.
    Friends, can you kindly clarify the above said problems. Since we use SAP ECC 6.0 any notes or patches apply is required. ( this is the basic functionality in ALV, that is my doubt).
        wls_fieldcat-col_pos   = wpv_pos.
        wls_fieldcat-fieldname = wpv_champ.
        wls_fieldcat-tabname   = wlc_tabname.
      wls_fieldcat-seltext_s = wls_fieldcat-seltext_m
        wls_fieldcat-seltext_l = wpv_libelle.
        wls_fieldcat-ddictxt   = 'L'.
        wls_fieldcat-no_out    = wv_no_out.
        APPEND wls_fieldcat TO gt_fieldcat.
    Kind regards,
    Jegathees P.

  • Key Figure calculation in Abap is not working correctly - Overlooping

    Hi,
    I wrote a logic to calculate the ratio of key figure but it is not working correctly
    For example I have a requirement to split 1 Product into Several new Products and also the Net Amount will be splitted to these several new products as well. The total Amount of the new product will be equivalent to the Net Amount.
    So far my Logic is splitting the product to several new products but the amount is incorrect as the calculation is over looping.
    Sample
    A PRODUCT has Net Amount 1000. And this product needs to be splitted into 3 new products. Each of this new product is assigned a ratio of 0.3, 0.2 and 0.7 respectively. total sum of the ratio is 1.
    PRODUCT1 0.3 = 1000 * 0.3 = 300
    PRODUCT2 0.2 = 1000 * 0.2 = 200
    PRODUCT3 0.7 = 1000 * 0.7 = 700
    The total amount of this new products is 1000.
    Now my logic is working this way.
    PRODUCT1 0.3 = 1000 * 0.3 = 300
    PRODUCT2 0.2 = 1000 * 0.2 * 0.3 = 60
    PRODUCT3 0.7 = 1000 * 0.2 * 0.3 * 0.7 = 42
    Only the PRODUCT1 is working correctly and there is overlooping for the remaining products
    Logic used

    Hi,
    I am not really good at debugging Abap code since I am a newbie. however  I have tried to add CLEAR T_DATA before the first loop.
    REFRESH T_DATA.
    LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE.
    ZIDX = SY-TABIX.
    MOVE-CORRESPONDING DATA_PACKAGE TO T_DATA.
    and before the second loop and select statement and at the end of the loop.
    REFRESH T_NEWDSO.
    SELECT * FROM NEWDSO INTO table T_NEWDSO WHERE PROD =
    DATA_PACKAGE-PROD.
    SORT T_NEWDSO BY PROD.
    READ TABLE T_NEWDSO WITH KEY PROD = T_DATA-PROD.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    LOOP AT T_NEWDSO.
    but then not all data are being fetched.

  • Email pushing not working correctly for office email - 3 seperate devices/carriers

    We switched email hosts several months ago and since our email pushing has not worked correctly. Our host/IT guy has been very unwilling to help me through this (I get the pleasure of being the in-house IT source)
    I personally am on AT&T have no problems with the other 3 emails I have set up on my blackberry. However I receive my work account one time a day at roughly 6:15. Another user is on Alltel and he receives spotty emails throughout the day, but his gmail account comes through instantly. The third user is on nextel and he receives his 2-3 times per day.
    I began to think this was an email host issue since the three of us are all on different carriers, until I found out a fourth user, also on nextel, receives his emails fine.
    Users 1-3 are on Outlook 07 on various versions of the Curve. We have all our messages to stay on the server.
    User 4 is on the older nextel blackberry push to talk, and is not on outlook. 
    We do not have an exchange server. Our emails were all set up through our devices.
    Any suggestions? The answers I have received through our carriers is to make sure that our messages are set to be left on the server. Everyone else at the office has given up - but for me this is the quest for the Holy Grail.......I'm determined find the answer!
    Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

    Potential solution for windows for a side-by-side install. This works for me.
    To setup a firefox install side by side so that links from external programs (like email) can open (so you don't get a "Firefox is already running but is not responding" message) do the following.
    The solution entails the use of the -no-remote switch. Don't use it for the default browser. Use it for the non default browser.
    I'll use firefox 3.6 and firefox 4.0 as examples but this should work for future versions.
    + Install firefox 3.6 and Firefox 4.0 in different directories. Eg.
    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 4\firefox.exe
    + Open profile manager. Start > Run : firefox.exe -ProfileManager
    + In profile manager create Two Profiles.
    firefox3.6
    firefox4
    + In profile manager select firefox 4 as your default (assuming you want to default to the latest) and tick "Don't ask at startup"
    + Create two windows shortcuts.
    * General: Mozilla Firefox 4 (default). Shortcut > Target: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 4\firefox.exe". Shortcut > Start In: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 4"
    * General: Mozilla Firefox 3.6. Shortcut > Target: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p firefox3.6 -no-remote. Shortcut > Start In: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox"
    That's it. Links from external programs should now open in your default browser.

  • I bought an IPAD air from state and the screen is not working correctly and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

    i bought an IPAD air (32 gb wifi only) from USA just one month ago and the screen is not working correctly(picture attached) and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

    Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that fixes it ? You might be able to get warranty service in Egypt for your iPad, but the warranty includes :
    IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE AND iPAD SERVICE.
    Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone and iPad to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
    As it's wifi-only you should have a better chance of it being serviced under warranty, but there are no guarantees, it might depend upon the repairer.

    I have changed a RSReportDesigner.config to add a tab delimited option for report export, but it is not working correctly in vs2008/vs2010 report designer. I get a duplicate of CSV (comma delimited) in the export dropdown list.

    Hi Dave0323,
    According to your description, you want to export your report into TXT file and change the delimiter to be a Tab. Right?
    In Reporting Services, when exporting to a CSV file, we can change the default field delimiter to any character that we want, including TAB, by changing the device information settings in the configuration file. For example, to use TAB,
    update the FieldDelimiter setting to <FieldDelimiter xml:space="preserve">[TAB]</FieldDelimiter>. And we can change the FileExtension to be TXT if we want to export it into a TXT file. So in this scenario, we just need to modify the configuration
    file like below:
    The result looks like below:

  • Text formatting in Numbers is not working correctly.

    In Numbers on Chrome text formatting is not working correctly, it's almost as if a CSS file is not being loaded. To be precise, when I try to make a cell Bold there is no bolding. I am using Arial as a font. This has been an issue on Mac and Windows. Any ideas?

    Do you have the same problem with Safari or Firefox?
