  • Can't eject disk image from Finder in Mountain Lion

    I just got a new MacBook pro. I'm running Mountain Lion (10.8.2). Any time I try to unmount an external hard drive or eject a disk image from the Finder, nothing happens (either clicking the contextual eject icon or right-clicking). The items in question are not in use when I try to eject them. I'm only able to do so with Disk Utility. Any ideas? I've repaired disk permissions but the problem persists.

    I am having similar issues with my user account. It also is the same in Yosemite.
    Disc images, external hard drives etc dragged to trash (get eject icon) are simply ignored.
    Pressing Eject button in side bar of Finder are ignored.
    It seems to be a permission/account issue as:
    - using computer under a different account doesnt have this problem
    - transferring account over to another mac continues the problem on the new computer.
    Log file seems not to have any errors.

  • How to eject disk image without needing it to run a program

    When ever i install a program from the internet such as Skype an image appears on my desktop...when i eject it and open Skype it says i cannot use it because i need it.how do i get rid of the image and still be able to use the program?
    Thanks-

    The sequence usually goes something like this:
    1. Download the disk image or package.
    2. Open or Double-click the disk image.
    3. Install or Drag the application into the applications folder.
    4. Eject the disk image or package.
    5. Run the application from the applications folder, keeping it in the dock if you choose.
    I say this without knowing specifically how Skype works, but this is generally how programs install.

  • Script to unmount or eject disk images

    Is there a way to unmount disk images wiuth an automator or applescript? I have such a script to eject all disks, but this won't unmount disk images. I would like something that unmounts everything, except of course the startup disk etc.

    That works!
    However, I still have the problem that it will only eject 1 of 2 or 2 of 3 or 3 of 4 etc. I always have to run the script again to eject the remaining disk or image.
    It says: Applescript error Finder got an error. Can't get disk 3 (or whatever is remaining.)
    I really appreciate your help btw.
    this of course makes sense because once a disk is ejected it's not counted among the remaining disks. we should start ejecting from the last disk (see the script below). Also, as i found out, Finder's eject command in apple script doesn't unmount internal drives. At least it didn't for me. I' not sure what the story here is.
    One can circumvent this by calling a shell script command.
    Something along the following lines.
    tell application "Finder"
    set nmd to number of disks
    --this ejects externals and disk images
    if nmd > 1 then
    repeat with i from 2 to nmd
    eject disk (nmd - i + 2)
    end repeat
    end if
    --this ejects internals except for the start up
    set nmd to number of disks
    if nmd > 1 then
    repeat with i from 2 to nmd
    do shell script "diskutil unmount /Volumes/\"" & (name of disk (nmd - i + 2)) & "\"> /dev/null &"
    end repeat
    end if
    end tell
    I tested it on my computer and it ejects 10 disks and disk images well so I think it should work ok most of the times but there are probably situations when it will fail. I'm not sufficiently motivated to refine it.

  • How to eject disk image Pro.sparsebundle

    My time capsule does not allow me to backup or select it as the disk, the error message is
    The disk image "Michael's MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" is in use. Try ejecting the disk image.
    What do I do?
    Thanks

    This is quite a complex "fix"
    Pull the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule
    Count to ten
    Plug the power cord back into the back of the Time Capsule
    Wait a few minutes and try another backup.

  • Eject Disk Image at logout with AppleScipt?

    Hello, I would like to know how to use AppleScript to write a script that automatically ejects a disk image whenever the user logs out of their account.
    This script would be the complementary inverse to a login item I have setup wherein a specific disk image is mounted upon login.
    Because the disk image to be unmounted will be the same one every time, a script that simply uses the path to the image to accomplish the task will be fine (as opposed to a script that would scan for and unmount any mounted images found).

    Check this one out.
    I found this on MacScripter. You should check out that site too, as there are a lot of applescripts there.

  • Can't eject disk image after install on Mac, get error message: The disk "Thunderbird" couldn't be ejected because "Thunderbird" is using it.

    this is an upgrade from previous to current version. seemed to have started around the time yosemite came out.

    I don't have a background image. I called Apple and they had no idea what that error number meant. I deleted preferences for FCPX still didn't work, then delted all preferences and set up a new user. It now works. Apple has no idea what is going on.

  • Application disk image won't eject off the desktop?

    Hi,
    Lately I've been having this problem with either Firefox or Safari and I download something and the dmg extracts and I'm left with the white casing shell where the app is housed and it won't eject. I can't eject it from finder but dumping it to the trash from finder took it off the sidebar. I can't get them off my desktop unless I restart my Mac.
    Why is this happening and how do I fix it? I'm using Leopard 10.5.2.
    S.

    Thanks to DeltaMac I figured out all the problems I was having with my Finder. I was missing a lot of options under my Finder tab like Empty Trash, Preferences, Quit etc. Also I had no option to right click and eject disk images or external hard drives.
    All you have to do is download Onyx here: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/20070
    Then open up Onyx and go to OnyX/Parameters/Finder
    put a check in the box next to Show Preferences item, Show Empty Trash, Show Quit item, and Show Eject item and whatever else you want. You have to do them each individually though and wait for the prompt. Then item log out and back in again and everything should be back to normal.

  • Problems unmounting/ejecting a disk image after upgrade to 10.4.9

    Since I upgraded to 10.4.9 I have the following problem:
    After viewing a slideshow of pictures located in a disk image I cannot unmount/eject this image. I receive an error message that the image cannot be deactivated/ejected as some file is still in use.
    Using the activity monitor I checked which files are in use by the Finder and found out that the last picture shown by slideshow is still referenced.
    To me it seems as if the upgrade from 10.4.8 to 10.4.9 either changed the behaviour of slideshow (which does not close all files when terminated) or the eject image function (which does not force all open files in the image being closed).
    The only bypasses I found so far are
    - using "umount -f" on Unix level (think I have to be an admin for that)
    or
    - logging off and on again / restarting the computer
    Has anybody got other ideas how to force the unmount without using native UNIX commands in a terminal window?
    Can someone tell me how I can report this bug to apple? On Apple's support pages I could not find any information on that.
    Thanks in advance for any helpful hints.

    The "Dock" contextual menu item to "Relaunch" the "Finder" is the equivalent of a "Force Quit", which is quite different from a regular "Quit".
    Unless it is being unresponsive to a normal "Quit" signal, force quitting any application is not recommended because unsaved changes will be lost. In the case of the "Finder", any sort of file transfers in progress will be interrupted. Data loss may also occur if a file containing "comments" has been moved at some point earlier in the login session.
    A normal "Quit", such as what occurs when logging out, quitting through the menu, using AppleScript or the "Quit" option of "Activity Monitor.app" ensures that the app quits in an orderly manner.

  • Encrypted disk image on external drive prevents that drive from ejecting

    I've tested this a few different ways, and it seems to be a rather consistent problem.
    I have an external USB hard drive (seagate) and on that drive I use encrypted disk images to store my data.
    (because it's a portable drive, I'm nervous I'll lose it and then someone will have access to my stuff).
    So anyway, whenever I mount the sparse bundle disk image, when it comes time to eject the drive (after ejecting the disk image of course), it hangs for a while and then the Finder says it can't eject, but that I can Force Eject the drive.  When I chose to Force Eject, it works, but I don't like having to force it every time.
    Anyone know what's up?
    Thanks,
    Brian.,

    Open Disk Utility > File > New >Blank Disk Image...
    or use the "Option-⌘-N" Key combo (with Disk Utlity open).

  • "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.pkg" is damaged and can't be opened. You should eject the disk image.

    After 3 different downloads (2 in Safari, 1 in Firefox) I still get this message when I try to open Lightroom package: “Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.pkg” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should eject the disk image. I have a feeling it has to do with 3rd-party software on my Mac OSX 10.8.2 - how do I get around that?

    If you have already tried an alternate web browser then your next step would be to try an alternate Internet connection.  Perhaps try a wired connection if you are using wireless for example.

  • Disk images won't unmount/eject for admin user, DVDs & iDisk also affected

    This problem started when I was on Tiger, and seemed to follow me onto Leopard.
    It only affects me, the primary user on my Mac. *One other user on the computer; she also has admin level access and does not have any of these problems.*
    Here's the deal:
    *Once mounted, disk images won't eject/unmount.*
    - Dragging to the trash can doesn't work. The eject icon appears, but nothing happens.
    - Ctrl-click does not show Eject as an option when highlighting the mounted image.
    - CMD-E doesn't work
    - EJect doesn't appear as an option in the finder menu
    - Clicking on the Eject button in the sidebar of the Finder window doesn't work.
    - I've logged out, rebooted, repaired permission, and installed a new OS (clean install of 10.5, then did the import of my old user settings. Since I had the problem in Tiger, it's clear the problem followed me, but what the heck causes it?)
    *The only way to unmount/eject a disk image is to use the Disk Utility Program.*
    *DVDs also can only be ejected via Disk Utility*
    The iDisk connection can only be killed by opening Activity Monitor and killing the webdavfs_agent process.
    Would love some help. I've searched a lot and have a fair amount of folks with this problem, but no real solution.

    That'll work; however, then the OP has to reset all of his preferences. Easier would be to log into the newly created admin account, backup the bad account's folder, delete the bad account, selecting the save data option (which is stored in /Users/Deleted Users/ as a disk image), recreate the bad account using the same username/password combo, log out and back into the recreated original account. Mount the saved data dmg file in /Users/Deleted Users/, open the /Library/Preferences/ folder from the saved data, open the current /Users/restored account/Library/Preferences/ folder, and slowly copy plist files from the saved data folder to the current one. Log out and back in to ensure there's no conflict and things still work correctly. Resolving these kinds of conflicts is a laborious process, but not as laborious as resetting preferences or even remembering what you set weeks, months, or years ago.

  • HT3787 If you accidentally eject that local file (plain white disk image) from another user, can you get it back?

    If you accidentally eject local file from mobile me from another user, how can you get it back? Or is it stored somewhere else????
    My website was saved on there. And I need it!!
    I didn't realize that was the idisk since mobileme has been gone for so long.

    That's what I was hoping.  I use Time Machine to back up the entire computer.  But I'm assuming it was a disk image, and that wouldn't be saved on the backup?  Or where could I find it?

  • "Adobe ColdFusion 10" can't be opened. You should eject the disk image.

    Hello,
    Dowloaded Coldfusion from the Adobe website, both with Safari as with Firefox
    I want to install Coldfusion 10 on my Macbook. OS X 10.7.4 ( so not 10.8 ). When I double click the
    .dmg file , I always get "“Adobe ColdFusion 10” can’t be opened. You should eject the disk image." error. Never had this before. I've read about setting security on 'non signed packages', but this applies to 10.8.
    Is this a known issue ?
    Thanks,
