Error Message: there is no disk in the drive

When performing file operations, such as duplicating or moving an image, I get the following error message:
If I click "continue," the operation completes, but it is very annoying. I have no drive by this name as far as I know, so how can I stop getting this message?
Thanks.

is this path shown in the destination drive box ?

Error Msg - There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive

Okay, I have been using itunes w/the same ipod for quite a while. Recently my computer died so I just bought a new one. Before getting rid of the old one I logged onto windows and moved all my files to an external drive. I am now using this external drive for all my docs, music, etc. on the new computer and did a "move" of "my documents" (including "my music" contained therein). I installed itunes and my ipod using the software disks that came with my ipod. I inserted the ipod and it worked fine but it did make me associate the ipod with this new computer and had to reinstall all my music on my ipod. So far so good. Then when I went to play a purchased song itunes informed me that I had to upgrade to the most recent version of itunes to play the song. I then dowloaded the update and installed it. After installing the updated itunes, itunes then basically re-associated itself with my ORIGINAL profile (I'm not sure if profile is the correct word to use here) and once again deleted everything on my ipod and reinstalled all my songs. Now this is where I began having this problem. Now, everytime I run itunes (with or without my ipod connected) I get 12 of the above-mentioned error messages. The top of the box says "Windows - No Disk" and the main part of the box says "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive." I am given the choice of "Cancel" "Try Again" and "Continue." I hit cancel for a total of 12 times. I've tried with disks in both of my cd/dvd drives and get the same message. The funny thing is that I have about 12 or so card readers (scene by the computer as drives) and I'm thinking that maybe itunes is trying to access those drives or something, but I'm not sure. So, that's it in a nutshell. Any help by someone w/knowledge of this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This can also be caused in iTunes 7 by "dead tracks": songs that iTunes is expecting to find in a certain place but the song file isn't there.
I recently upgraded to version 7 and got this message every time I started iTunes. I used the iTunes COM SDK for Windows with JScript to find all the dead tracks in my library. Then I fixed them by either deleting them from the library or else correcting the library's idea of where the song file was. Once I did this the message went away.
Another way to look for dead tracks is to parse the iTunes library XML file and look for invalid file paths. I did this in Perl without too much trouble.
(I'm cross-posting this to several threads about the same problem.)

Error "there is no disk in the drive..."

I loaded the FlexSQLadmin sample into Builder. When I click
the green "run"button, I get a "Windows - No Disk" popup with the
message "There is no disk in the drive. Plese insert a disk into
drive." Any ideas? I re-installed the builder but still get the
error.

Great post Jcat21. My HP has a built-in multi-card reader, I
disabled them, and now it works!
To disable it:
Open Divice Manager
Open "Disk drives" tree node
Right-click on "Generic USB CF Reader" and disable.
Right-click on "Generic USB MS Reader" and disable.
Right-click on "Generic USB CDReader" and disable.
Right-click on "Generic USB SM Reader" and disable.
I am not sure which disabled card reader made it work...I'll
test that next. Also, I'm not sure if it has to do with the
assigned drive letters, but mine were G through K.

Windows Error: "There is no disk in the drive"

When I connect or update my iPod using iTunes, I get a Windows Error stating "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive F:." F: is the drive that my iPod appears in explorer while the device is updating.
Is this a problem with the iPod or with windows? I would like to know in case i have a defective iPod.
Thanks!

FYI, after calling Apple support, it turns out the problem was to do with McAfee VirusScan. McAfee attempts to access the iPod disk after the disk is removed from Explorer, which was the source of the error box. To fix this, you can either turn on the "External Disk" option in iTunes, or you can change McAfee setttings to exclude the iPod disk.

Error Message When Syncing Ipod "There is no disk in the drive ... "

When doing a search on the internet for this error message, i see a few other previous posts on forums.ilounge.com with others having this issue with Itunes, but all I can find is someone talking about deleting the Itunes preferences files on my computer, and I did that, but that didn't help. I was wondering if anyone had any bright ideas.
I get this annoying message EVERYTIME I sync my Ipod:
"There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive G:".
(Drive G on my computer is my Ipod when i have it plugged in). It doesn't seem to interfere with anything; all I have to do is click continue and the message goes away. But as I said, it's annoying, and I want it gone. I want to avoid reinstalling Itunes if I can due to the hassle of having to do so, plus previous posters on forums.ilounge.com said they did so an it didn't help. If someone can direct me to a previous string where this has already been discussed please post me the link. thanks!

Hi there
I am also getting this error message. One day my iPod was syncing fine, the next I was getting this error message. I have tried every conceivable drive letter, and still I get the message. i have also tried every drive on my computer, still the same message.
I have restarted and restored the iPod several times, no change to error message.
I shelled out £16.99 on a new sync cable, thinking that might help - but no, i still get the same error message.
In addition, my iPod screen displays the DO NOT DISCONNECT sign.
I seem to be able to perform a sync, but at the end, when iTunes says sync complete, the error message appears on my screen (incidentaly the header bar of the error message says: CorelLOMonitor.exe - No Disk) and the iPod screen continues to flash "Do Not Disconnect". This continues indefinatly and I have only been able to stop it by unplugging the iPod form the Sync cable.
I really would welcome some assistance with this problem.
Many thanks

It sounds like you downloaded the wrong application, namely Adobe Premiere Elements.
If you meant Adobe Photoshop Elements, you're in the wrong forum. This is not the Elements forum.
Here's the link to the forum you want:

When I am using Premiere elements 13 I get a message that pops up "that there is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive", this also happened 3 months ago How can I get rid of this again?

When I am using Premiere Elements 13 I get a message that pops up "There is no disk in the drive" I click on it and it keeps coming back "very annoying", but about three months ago it happened to me and I was told to change the file name from OldFilm.AEX to OldFilm.AEXold. Well now the file is back in Folder OldFilm.AEX. Here is a screen shot the files are highlighted.What should I do now to correct this once and for all, or can I? Thank you for your time.

TomWolves
I would do another rename to disable or just delete all the OldFilm.AEX and OldFilm.AEXOLD in that NewBlue Folder.
If you do, please let me know if that OldFilm.AEX regenerates itself the next time you open Premiere Elements 13.
Here is the strange story...at least from my Premiere Elements 13 Windows perspective...never had the No Disc error issue
Here are some details to sort through trying to figure out why you have 2 OldFilm.AEX file in the NewBlue Folder.
1. The original OldFilm.AEX file of Premiere Elements 13 has the date of 9/4/2014 (just before the version was released on 9/24/2014).
After the 13.1 update is done (whenever date), that OldFilm.AEX file has the date of 1/31/2015. I first saw notification of the 13.1 Update
release early in February 2015.
2. Now in Premiere Elements 13.1, if I take my OldFilm.AEX (date 1/31/2015) and disable it by renaming it to OldFilm.AEXOLD, close out of there, and reopen
the program, the OldFilm.AEX is not seen to regenerate. The OldFilm.AEXOLD remains there as its lone self.
3. So, I am thinking that your OldFilm.AEXOLD in the screenshoot is "original equipment" that you disabled to get rid of No disc error.
Why the OldFilm.AEX is there also is not clear, but the dating on it suggests that it came along with the 13.1 Update.
Bottom line: let us try the deletion or disabling one more time and see what happens.
Looking forward to further reports on your findings, as your time permits.
Thanks.

Windows Error Msg when using Itunes - "There is no disk in the drive. "

Hi there -
Desperately seeking help before I lose my mind !
Whenever I try to do anything in iTunes I get the Windows windows error message "WINDOWS - NO DISK. There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive ." with the options to either CANCEL, TRY AGAIN or CONTINUE.
Regardless of which of the options I select, the error message re-appears & will not close.
I try CTRLALTDEL but I get the message Itunes is "not responding".
I have tried:
- Updating iTunes software
- Making sure I have the latest Windows Updates
- Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes
- Selective start-up where I disable all applications which might be clashing with iTunes
- clearing the menu in QuickTime
None of these work
Any ideas ?
Thanks -
HP Pavillion Windows XP

I am wondering if you ever got this problem straightened out, or if anyone else knows the solution to this problem. I am receiving the exact same message as you talk about receiving here:
"WINDOWS - NO DISK. There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive ."
No drive is listed, just a "."
I also have tried uninstalling and resinstalling iTunes many times. Not only that, but I thought it might be a virus problem of some kind, so I totally resintalled my Windows XP system. All to no avail. Even on my newly installed system I am having this problem in iTunes.
I have found that if I hit Cancel about 80 times (literally), iTunes will finally load. But it is crazy that anyone should have to go throug this each time he loads the iTunes program.
Someone posted a link to a Microsoft fix for a similar problem, but I was unable to understand the fix, and the problem listed in the fix did not seem to correspond with the problem we're having.
If anyone knows the solution to this problem and is able to give instructions for the solution, I would really appreciate it! I would just use an alternative mp3 player to iTunes at this point if I could, but that isn't really feasible since I have an iPod.

"There is no disk in the drive" How to eliminate this message?

Hi everyone,
I just got a new Nano, and whenever I sync it with itunes, I get an error message that says "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk in the drive".
I have tried reinstalling itunes, tried different usb ports, and also reset my ipod, but I still get the message.
The only way I prevented it from occurring was when I created a new profile in Windows and logged into it, but this isn't a permanent solution.
Thanks for your help.

Try:

Excel won't open and error message There was a problem sending the command to the programe

Hi there
I'd be grateful for your help.
I've just bought a new laptop and installed Office 2013. I used Excel 2013, did what I needed to do and saved it. This was 5 days ago.
Today, I've tried opening the file from my desktop and get the error message 'There was a problem sending the command to the program'.
And when I try to open Excel to do the DDE fix, which seems to be the best suggestion, I can't open Excel at all. I've tried to get into it from the Apps screen.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks

Don't seem like this can be fixed so I went back to version 6.0.2 which works good.
I have Chrome now as my default browser and will not use fire fox until they fix it!
Chrome works great!

ITunes won't upgrade to10.5. Error message "There is a problem with the Windows installer package. Contact the package vendor". I need help.

iTunes won't upgrade to10.5. I'm on 10.1.17.
When installing 10.5 it terminates with an error message "There is a problem with the Windows installer package. Contact the package vendor".
It does not provide an error code or details/description to further troubleshoot. As a result I can't upgrade my Apple devices to leverage the cloud.
Any smarts out there who could help?
Using PC Win-7 w/IE 7 (should that matter)
Thanks much

I know there's a million threads like this, but I thought I'd record my experience. I, too, was having the original poster's error when I tried to update iTunes on Windows XP. I think I was stuck on 10.
I solved it by un-installing iTunes and every other Apple app. I discovered that Apple Software Update would not un-install as its MSI file could not be found. I used the "Windows Install Cleanup" tool from Microsoft to remove Apple Software Update from the list of installed programs. Google "kb290301" for a Microsoft page that includes a download link for it. After that, I was able to install a fresh copy of iTunes 10.5.2.
I'm not sure why this app's folder and MSI were missing from my computer. I had once used Laplink PC Mover to move everything from my old computer to this one, and perhaps it missed a bit.

Yep, me to exactly the same problem, the error message keeps telling me to check my internet connection or try later. Nothing wrong with my internet connection. Is it an apple server problem?

I am trying to update to iOS5, but after the download completes, I get an error message "There was a problem downloading the software for my iPad2. The network connection timed out." Any suggestions?

Temporarily disable your firewall and security software and see if that helps.
