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.

  • Canon LBP5000 does not work after Leopard Upgrade

    Hi all,
    We have a Canon LBP5000 that is directly connected to one of our iMac's and worked like a charm when we were using Tiger. After upgrading to Leopard, everything went weird. It is still installed but when we tried printing, we get a 'Load Paper' warning from the printer. After checking to make sure that the default paper was all in A4 format it still wouldn't print. We then tried hooking it up to an Airport Express to share and while trying to add it via Bonjour, an Error 9672. We're seriously looking at getting a new clour laser printer that works with Leopard as at this point in time, there is yet to be found a driver from Canon that works with Leopard. Any suggestions of colour laser printers that work with Leopard or solutions to our problems ?

    Hi Donny/PJB,
    I did look and googled the drivers but the European site has outdated ones. We were actually using Japanese drivers CAPT (Ver. 1.60) for Tiger but it doesn't work now for Leopard. PJB, thanks for pointing out your post and I had a run through the Japanese site but it's all in Japanese
    Anyway, I basically used common sense and updated the CAPT to (Ver. 1.61) but it still doesn't work after installing it. Every time I try to print or so a test print, the progress went Printing to Stopped.
    When we click Resume it doesn't do anything and after 4 clicks, there was a short 'Fatal: Failed to load module' message pops up in the Print Queue dialog box. Has anyone actually have a Canon LBP 5000 printer that has worked with Leopard ? That is my question really...sigh.

  • TX2500Z touchscreen does not work after Windows7 upgrade from HP specific to S/N, etc on laptop.

    My TX2500Z touchscreen does not work after I upgraded to Windows 7. I cannot find any support or drivers, etc. to fix.  I bought Windows 7 directly from HP specific to my P/N and S/N on my TX2500Z.  Any help? Thanks.

    after 2,5 days (spending half a day within the apple shop as well with this problem) i have it all back on track.
    i did a lot of different things: trying to remove and reinstall iPhoto; did a SL installation over the old SL I had on my HD; backing up all the data of course before and reformatting my HD and installing a new clean SL version on it + a new clean version of iLife9 with all the updates and than I migrate with migrate assistant all the data and setting with time machine back onto it, but all this didn't work, because it also migrated the error/bug through time machine with it.
    so at the end i just installed a brand new, clean SL version on my hard drive, than I did the updates and put all my data, photos, docs, movies, mail, bookmarks, music, etc manual back into the system (drag and drop from my external HD, where i had an exact copy of my internal HD) and did all the settings again in all the different programs.
    the only thing i used migrant assistant with time machine for was for the programs. it seems to work now all fine and i even got more free space on my HD, because some of the old stuff i always carried with me but i never used, i didn't take over.
    basically everything is clean now. At least i hope and works fine. touch wood!

  • 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:

    I installed Adobe Photoshop CS6 on MacBook Pro, OS 10.7.5. Now my DVD player will not work. Any ideas?

    Problem solved. Yes, it was a coincidence. The problem had to do with my DVD preferences, not the Adobe installation. Thanks for your reply.

  • 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.

  • Flash Player Does Not Work After Installing on Windows XP

    I had been playing a shockwave game for several days and had completed 19 of 35 levels. When I went to play it again, I received a message that I need to update to a newer flash player. I downloaded it successfully, but it does not work. There is no file size and I uninstalled and reinstalled it several times. I also changed the internet settings as suggested. I am also the administrator of and only user of this computer. I can also play the same game on another computer that has windows 7 and have no problems. I have completed 33 of 35 levels with no problems. The computer with XP has a 32 system.
    Any help  would be appreciated.

    I had been playing a shockwave game for about a week . When I went to play it again, it stated that I need to upgrade to a newer adobe flash player. I have windows  xp with a 32 system and explorer 8 browser.  After installing the flash player, it has no file siz for the player.. After I installed it, the page says it had been installed. The game still says I need to upgrade the flash player. I uninstalled it, reinstalled it, changed my internet settings as suggested, and it still does not work. I can play the same game on my other computer with windows 7 with no problems. It has a file size listed for the flash player.  The computer that I am using now has windows 7 and a file size for the adobe flash player.
    Any help with this matter will be greatly appreciated.

  • DNS does not work after Leopard utdate

    Hello!
    We are using an G5 XServe. Until recently we used 10.3.9.
    With this configuration everything worked, but when we updated from 10.3.9 to 10.5.1 the troubles began.
    All the DNS info from server admin is gone. And the network does not work as it did before.
    I can still see the info in the files via terminal, but it is not present in server admin.
    We cloned the server disk to an external drive before updating. When we start from this disk everything works great.
    I have been searching the net for a while and found this article:
    http://www.afp548.com/article.php?story=20071031195155456&query=Leopard%2BDNS
    It mentions a bug causing DNS to crash badly if service is updated and saved. I updated the service when I updated to 10.5, and I saved it afterwards...
    Does anyone have any tips? Im really need to get this up and running!
    I suppose I could clone the server back from the backup, update to 10.5 and NOT upgrade the DNS service. However I hope there is another solution..
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks
    Message was edited by: wiitho

    In a few hour its back to work..
    I have not found any absolute answer to my problem.
    I thing Ill try the "clone back and dont update DNS service" option. However, there is one concern:
    Will it help to not update the DNS service? Or will I be facing the same problem again after updating to 10.5? If anybody knows I would appreciate any answer
    Thanks!

  • Most of the default Mac Apps does not work after Mavericks Upgrade

    Hi, I did everything, but nothing has brought me out of this misery .
    I Updated Maverick just 2 days after its release. Had no problems, other then slow Finder. I restarted my iMac last week, and got caught with these issues, known to me, not sure what all bugs are there.
    All these apps does not work: App Store, TextEdit, Preview, Terminal, iBooks, Maps, Calendar, Contacts, Mail, etc
    I do not know how to do a clean install, as I had upgraded from Snow Leopord to Mountain Lion and to Maverick using App Store, which does not open at all.
    Hoping to get some response soon from Apple support team to help me.

  • Iphoto slideshow does not work after SL upgrade

    Hi, i have a 2 month old macbook pro 3.06Ghz and after i upgraded to SL i have several problems: Toast does not work, my pretty new HP 4480 Photosmart Printer works but the scanner function not (error message comes up no connection to scanner), etc. but the biggest problem right now is that iPhoto does not work anymore. i use it a lot and i have over 20000 photos on it. before with leopard it was working fine, but now after scrolling through a few photos iphoto get stucked for a few minutes before it runs again. the slideshow feature doesn't work. i read a few forums about this or similar problems but all the advise didn't help. i reinstalled the iphoto from the original computer disc and later from a life 9 disc as well. first the slideshow works once or twice with only a few pics, but later it turns the slideshow on but get stucked and the only way to get out of the frozen screen is by turning the computer off (holding OFF button down). i did also verify disc permission and disc repair = no help. what can i do?

    after 2,5 days (spending half a day within the apple shop as well with this problem) i have it all back on track.
    i did a lot of different things: trying to remove and reinstall iPhoto; did a SL installation over the old SL I had on my HD; backing up all the data of course before and reformatting my HD and installing a new clean SL version on it + a new clean version of iLife9 with all the updates and than I migrate with migrate assistant all the data and setting with time machine back onto it, but all this didn't work, because it also migrated the error/bug through time machine with it.

    basically everything is clean now. At least i hope and works fine. touch wood!

  • Some Widget does not work after latest upgrade

    Today is July 23rd, 2011. By recent latest upgrade, mainly for supporting Lion, where I am still using Snow Leopard 10.6.8, some widget does not work, including Battery Meter, Digital Clock Alarm, Victoria Digital Clock, etc.
    By the way, my company use Chatter and I installed Chatter Desktop. Again, after recent upgrade, it no longer work anymore.
    Do you experience the same problem?
    For those who has upgraded to Lion, do you also find some widget does not work?

    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.

  • Insert in Tabular form does not work after the upgrade to APEX 4.0

    Hi all,
    Thx in advance for looking into the issue.
    We are running into following issue when we upgraded APEX 3.2 to APEX 4.02
    1) The Tabular form insert does not work.
    2) We are fatching the value of the Global variable APEX_APPLICATION.g_XXXX in a procedure and we get null for this value after submit for new row to be inserted.
    The tabular form was working fine in APEX 3.2.
    The Update and Delete works just fine.
    Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
    Thx and regards,
    Mahesh

    Here is my workaround to get the ADDROW/SUBMIT working again if you have a legacy Tabular Form:
    1     PAGE ATTRIBUTES               
              JAVASCRIPT          
              FUNCTION AND GLOBAL VARIABLE DECLARATION          
                   var htmldb_delete_message='"DELETE_CONFIRM_MSG"';

              ACTION WHEN BUTTON CLICKED          
              URL Target          change to

    3     ADDROW BUTTON               
              ACTION WHEN BUTTON CLICKED          
              Action

  • Wrt610n wireless network does not work after firmeware upgrade

    Hi
    I just updated my Wrt610n hardware version 1 to the newest firmware, it did finish with sucess, I did factory reset reboot and reconfig. But the wireless network does not work , cant connect computers to it. Did downgrade the firmware to the same it was and restore my settings but still wireless does not work. But router works fine with lan.  Any suggestions? maybe the firmware tosted the router?
    Regards
    Stefan

    Update -
    After last reset and reupgrade with the newest firmware for hardware version 1 I could config the router and connect 2 computers with wireless - but only for about 15 mín - then they lost connection and could not reconnect.
    I did then get the newest update for hardeware version 2 - just to try and upgraded with that and got success, and now I have reset the router again and config it and those 2 computers are connected and have been for 1 hour now. So seems to be working - is it okay to have the firmware for hardware version 2 on my version 1 router?
    Any thought what is going on - could it be that the other firmware had not loaded compleytle or?

  • Share option for email does not work after Yosemite upgrade.

    Hi,
    Does anybody know why the share option, "Share via email" does not work anymore after Yosemite upgrade?  I love this feature.  It's just quick and easy.
    Rod.

    On Yosemite, Pages '09 v4.3 no longer recognizes the Share > Send Via Email categories. You will have to export and manually drag/drop/attach documents to Mail. There is no fix.
