DVD/DVR does not work after 10.4.7 upgrade

Hi!
After updating to 10.4.7. The PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-105 does not work !!!
It won't recognize, spin, or eject discs automatically. It does let me insert and eject discs manually, and that's it.
I'm sure it's due to the upgrade and not becasue the drive went bad or something.
Any clues what to do?
(Is it possible to go BACK at the previous upgrade when such things happen?)
Thank You!
Dual 1.25 G4, 10.4.7   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

You're not alone, a lot of folks are experiencing this bull, myself included. If only there was an easy way to reinstall 10.4.5.

  • Dvd player does not work after Leopard upgrade

    I installed Leopard, had to upgrade because my printer died and no printers now work with Tiger.  Since the upgrade, my DVD player does not work.  I have problems burning some cd's too.  Is this a known issue?  What is the fix?

    I have read a couple of complaints like that, but not sure it's widespread.
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
    If that does NOT help, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
    Then move these files to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
    Reboot & test.
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
    If that does NOT help then I suspect the optical drive or media itself, or possibly just needs a cleaning CD run on it.

  • CD/DVD drive does not work after Win 8 intsallation

    from a month i've updated my windows into windows 8, everything is working great but the DVD-RW .
    When i put empty cd and try to open it, it gives me error while opening saying:
    "windows was unable to complete the format"
    So is that a software or a hardware problem?!
    waiting for the help !

    Does this mean that your CD/DVD drive does not work anymore and is not recognized by system?
    If yes, then I would recommend checking this Toshiba document which I found on the knowledge base portal webpage:
    +Why does my CD/DVD Drive not work after upgrading to Windows 8?+
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/FAQ2B03F10002R01.htm
    You will need to uninstall the Toshiba programs:

  • Conditional formatting in the chart  does not work after 10g to 11g upgrade

    W e have upgraded from 10g to 11.1.1.6.8 recently. For all the reports conditional formatting for charts is not working for us which used to work in 10g.
    While researching , i have found that advanced xml needs to be modified. So i changed xml where there is 'untypedLiteral' to 'decimal' and saved the report. Inspite of saving , xml wouldnt change . It still shows as untypedLiteral.
    I also tried to delete the conditional format and recreate again. But still it wouldn't work.
    Please advise.

  • Card slot does not work after update (14/10/2011)

    Thanks for your suggestion. I downloaded OnyX and ran the cleaning function. After restarting, I opened Help and once again the first screen appeared fine. But again most of the links did not work, though those under the "What's New" heading did work. I might add that I had previously tried a variety of suggestions posted in another thread, which included deleting from the caches folder in Home>Library several files such as com.apple.helpui and help.plist in the Preferences folder. (As noted in my previous post this evening, I also created another user but that also did not have any effect.) Any other ideas? Thanks

  • HT1688 My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1.  Service is with ATT.  Apple says problem is with ATT, ATT says problem is with Apple.  Anyone else having this problem?

    My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1.  Any suggestions?

    Ok, I had the same issue, my phone is unlocked(iphone 5 with 6.1.3). So I went to the apple store and had it replaced. it worked good for a day and started doing the same thing. When the apple tech replaced my phone, he transfered my screen protector to the new one.
    so I thought it was my sim card, I put in my sisters sim card from a different carrier and it did the same, so then I was like let me take off the screen protector, and that was it.
    so guys, if you have a screen protector on your phone and it's doing "low signal", "No Service", "Searching", "Full bars cycle" then take off the screen protector. so far my phone is working normal.

  • My sound system does not work AFTER installing pc to tv wireless connection

    my sound system does not work after installing hp pc to tv wireles device when I am using lap top for other purposes.

    Hi,
    You don’t install VS2010 on the client PC, then where did the Form Invoice not work? When you run it from another version of VS? Or when you run the application with application.exe?
    Based on your description, one form works well, another form does not. I assume that two forms are in two different projects, then please check the .Net Framework used by the two projects. If they are different, you can use the
    one used by the Form contact for Form Invoice.
    Because this issue is a project issue, I recommend you to consult it on some application forum such as Windows Forms General forum for better support.
    VS General Question forum mainly discusses
    the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as
    WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help
    System and Visual Studio Editor.

  • "F11 System Recovery" during boot does not work after Cloning hard drive.

    Problem: “F11 System Recovery” during boot does not work after Cloning hard drive.

    Each time the cloning process completes successfully and has the same original partition arrangement. The computer works properly except when trying to use the “F11 System Menu” key during boot. It gives the following error message:
    “Recovery

    You need to use the recovery tools on your installation media. If you don’t have any installation media (like a disc or USB device), contact your system administrator or PC manufacturer. “
    Any suggestions why the F11 System Recovery does not work during boot and how to fix the problem would be appreciated. I have does various disk checking and file checking on both the original and new hard drive with no errors.
    Thank you in advanced.

    Hi,
    How did you clone the HDD ? One-for-one or different method ?
