Expresscard slot not showing drives

I have a sonnet firewire expresscard. It is not showing my drive. I tried two drives. Usally it will show in network as something. but nothing. Please help

Not sure. Reading up on the Drobo, I see it is a RAID based configuration which may have something to do with it. RAIDs are not as commonplace in notebook configurations, so perhaps someone in the MacPro forums or Drobo support:

I have purchase iphone4 from someone,it is not factory unlock ,how can i get it factory unlock,its safari not working and its not showing drive on my computer

i have purchase iphone4 from gray market,it is not factory unlock,how can i get it factory unlock,
its safari not working and it is not showing drive in my computer.

iPhones are sold in carrier-locked and unlocked versions. If the phone has a carrier lock on it, you must contact the carrier to have it removed (you probably need to bring the phone to the carrier for the process). If you don't know the carrier, you won't be able to get it unlocked. US carriers will not remove the carrier lock and it cannot be removed.
How is Safari behaving that makes you say that Safari is not working? The lock status of the phone won't affect Safari, except that if the phone is locked and you aren't using the carrier (and SIM provided by the carrier) to which it is locked, then you can't use the phone or 3G service, only Wi-Fi.
The iPhone should not appear as a drive on your computer, so there's no error there.

TS2176 my mac disk utility option is not showing drive where to install

my mac disk utility option is not showing drive where to install

Sadly, it sounds like the drive has died if it isn't showing there, but on the off chance it's just really messed up...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

If no, please list what you DO see or take a screenshot of the Terminal window (press 'command-shift-4, press the spacebar, move the cursor over the Terminal window so that it changes into a camera icon, click trackpad or mouse. The screenshot is on your Desktop).

MSI X79A-GD65 8D not showing drives (hdd & optical) in windows

Hi,
For some reason my drives are not showing in windows or in device manager or anywhere. The show in bios. I'm not sure if it is a windows issue. I have a new build and the drives all showed for the first few days then after some updates they have gone.
Do I need to update the bios? I have not updated it but I only bought the motherboard about 20 days ago.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi,
I'm sorry. I don't know what you mean about installing the drivers as media drivers.
Quote from: xmad on 25-March-13, 00:21:21
Did you check in the disk manager? Can you see the HDD's etc there?
To which ports do you have them installed?
Have you installed teh ahci drivers and as media drivers?

17" MBP expresscard slot not working after wake-up

MBP6,1 17" SL 10.6.8
I'm trying to use a bunch of expresscard devices (3 different types of SD card readers as well as two SSDs). All 5 devices are being recognized by OSX and work well as long as the MBP is awake. After closing the lid and open it after a while I always get an error message that the media has been removed improperly. The media (SD card or SSD) is then dismounted and needs to be checked for file system errors.
I have an open incident at German Apple Support (Hotline) for more that 1 year regarding this issue.
IMHO it seems that the expresscard slot doesn't wake up in time before the file system of the SD/SSD media is being accessed and OSX then treats the media as "improperly removed".
I wonder if anyone is suffering from the same issue?
What are my chances of being heard by Apple (at last)?
Could this issue be fixed in Lion or will Lion be identical to Snow Leo (under the hood)?
Best,
Jan

Your notebook is an Enterprise/Business model. I would recommend posting this in the HP Enterprise Support Forums for better coverage.

SD/SDHC/SDXC/MMC/MS/MS Pro card-reader slot not showing up in windows explorer.

I have a Lenovo IdeaCentre, purchased only four weeks ago. It product family is IdeaCentre k410, machine type 10089. Anyhow, the problem is: I inserted a microSD / microSDHC, both of which seem to fit into the slot fine, though neither registers under anywhere in windows explorer, neither in the root of C://, nor in any of the subdirectories, or on the main listing of mounted file systems. I used the Lenovo Driver Updater and re-installed the SD Card Reader driver, to no avail. Any help would greatly be appreciated. As well, the computer runs Windows 8, which has some features I'm unhappy with, and although this is not a windows forum and I don't mean to create a thread that deviates from lenovo-specific topics, I was wondering if there is anything in either the machine architecture or the software of Windows 8 that could hinder m in installing a dual-boot system so that I might have the option of running a variant of linux as a sub-operating system, as I did with windows XP.????? OK any help at all would be so greatly appreciated, thank in advance. I really want to be able to retrieve some writing files I have stored in that micro SDHC card. As another aside, does anyone know the max limit of RAM this computer can take and if it is DDR or some other type?

hi BrokenHalo,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Regarding your questions:
1. When you inserted the SD card, do you hear a sound that a device is inserted and under Device Manger, do you see a Card Reader?
If not, try to:
a. boot intto the BIOS by pressing F1, load defaults by pressing F9 then press F10 to save and exit BIOS.
b. Reseat the front panel connectors (see page 23 of the hardware maintenance manual)
2. To install linux (i.e. Ubuntu), see if you can install Ubuntu via UEFI. If you're unable to do so or if you want to install other OS, try to:
a. Boot into the BIOS by pressing F2 and set the following settings below
UEFI Boot Mode = Legacy
Secure Boot = Disabled (if applicable)
CSM = Disabled / Legacy or Other OS (if applicable)
OS Optimized Default = Disabled or Legacy (if applicable)
b. When finished, press F10 to save and exit BIOS then try to install Ubuntu via Wubi or insert your Windows installation disc to install a different OS.
3. As per this pdf data sheet, the Lenovo K410 has a max RAM of 8GB PC3-12800 1600MHz DDR3 but Crucial reports that this unit can take up to 16GB PC3-12800 1600MHz DDR3 - check this site.
Hope this helps

SD CARD SLOT NOT SHOWING ON "safe to remove hardware" list ***NEWBIE**

i have purchased my very first imac and i have installed windows 7 through bootcamp. the first problem i have encountered is that when i insert a sd card or a back up drive via the usb port i do not get the "safe to remove hardware" icon i normally get on my pc. i am able to eject the sd card via the computer option when i right click the sd card i get the eject option but i do not get the option when i right click the portable hard drive. i have tried the "rundll" option wia "cmd" the "safe to remove hardware" box appears but the sd card and the portable hard drive do not appear. its as if the computer is not aware of anything in the slots.
when attaching multiple files in yahoo mail with a pc you just press the shift key does anyone know the equivilant for mac keyboard ?
thanks in adavance for your help

Hi,
odd...
If you open the Windows Explorer where are the SD-card and the USB-HD shown ?
Are they shown in the 'removable' section ?
Is thse USB-HD a 'Windows'-only HD or have you partitioned it to a Windows and a Mac OSX partition ?
Have you tried a different USB-port on your iMac for connecting the HD ?
What file system (FAT32 or NTFS) and what partition scheme (MBR or GPT) is used on the HD ?
And on the SD-card as well ?
As for the shift-key I don't that irregularity when using BootCamp Windows, but maybe that's because I still use WIndows XP with it.
Might be a very far reached guess, but who knows...: try the key-combo 'fn+shift-key' to enable/disable the scroll-lock... (very far.... I know).

Azure Storage Mounts but does not show drive letter in GUI

I have created a Azure File Share.
I am able to upload files to it.
I am able to MOUNT it to my file system using the net use command
When I type net use it shows the mapped drive
I am NOT able to see it in my GUI nor am I able to switch drives.
I am trying to access from an Azure Windows 2012 R2 VM inside the same subnet on a server in the same storage account. Anyone tell me why I cannot see my mapped drive.
Thanks!

Hi,
That is a bit weird that the map drive works, but the net use command does not. Are you specifying a drive name during net use command as described in one of these two links:
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-dotnet-how-to-use-files/
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazurestorage/archive/2014/05/27/persisting-connections-to-microsoft-azure-files.aspx
If the drive letter is specified and it doesn't show up, another thing to try is a net use * /delete and retry the command. If this doesn't work either, please share the net use command you are using (just to double check, do not share your account name
or key of course) and if need be we can take a closer look.

Lenovo Solutions Center not showing driver/BIOS updates?

Hey all,
Got a new H50-55 (AMD) and G50-45 today and updated everything including LSC. Both desktop and laptop LSC say to go onto Lenovo's site for firmware/BIOS updates and they both needed BIOS at the least. I can't really work out if anything else needs updating or not.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Callum.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I dont think there is no app to show updates for drivers or software apart from the think branded products which come with thinkvantage system update

Help! My slot-loading drive will not take discs/d-drive not being read.

I have a Toshiba Satellite U505-S2975.
When I try to insert a disc into my slot-loading disc drive, the drive will not grip onto the cd and suck it in. Nothing happens at all. Also, I noticed that the d-drive was not showing up under my computer. Does anyone have any possible solutions to this problem?

I tried the solution and it didn't work also, I have windows 7.

Disk Utility does not show my internal hard drive.

Recently, my Macbook Pro crashed.
THE PROBLEM
1. I turn it on, it starts normally at first, the Apple Logo Shows for several seconds
2. It changes to a no-smoking sign without the cigarette
3. If I try to boot safe mode, a folder appears with a question mark
4. If I try the internet recovery, I get to the part where I can restore OSX, use disk utility, etc.
5. When I try to restore OSX, it doesn't show my hard drive as avilable to install upon - no drives are shown
6. When I try to use disk utility, it only shows my Mac Base System, totaling 2GB, I cannot do anything.
THE QUESTIONS
1. What do I do? Thoughts? How do I recover my hard drive data before sending this computer to Apple to fix?
2. How can I use an external enclosure to recover my data using my desktop? What cords do I need? What is a good drive? Is it hard?
3. My SD card slot shows, could I install OSX on that and try to load my OSX to gain access to my harddrive that's missing?
4. Why would my main hard drive not show? I'm supposed to have a 250GB hard drive.
5. Is there anything I can do on Terminal to try to make my full hard drive appear? Or gain access?
6. What will Apple do with my RAM that I installed? I upgraded to 8GB? Will they just return as is?
Thank you.

Youre working the wrong end trying to revive a dying drive, a replacement is only $65
Did you have a backup of your vital data?
Terminal isnt going to do anything to help your HD.
questions:
1. get a new HD, install OS........recovery internal HD data using another computer and throwing the internal HD into a USB enclosure to extract data......however depending on the HD, data extraction may prove futile.
2. external USB enclosure, comes with USB cable....takes 3 mins to put internal HD into enclosure.
3. no,...... installing OS on a dying drive is beating a dead horse,...
4. because its dead/ dying.
5. no
6. Yes, they wont mess with your RAM.
Contact Apple for fix, of if you have the skills you can install a new HD yourself

HELP! DVD Drive not showing on finder or desktop

Hi, I am not a Mc OS expert. I have a Mac Pro 1,1 with MAC OSX 10.7.5, and my original DVD drive died. I happened to have an HP Lightscribe DVD640, and I installed it, but, its icon does not show up!
It is recognized by the system and Disk Utility, and if I insert a CD or DVD it reads it correctly, but when I remove it, there's no icon of the actual drive anywhere, so, I won't be able to open the drive to insert a new disc...
I set the Finder preferences to show CDs and DVDs, but nothing shows...
Any suggestion?

but... this is a Mac Pro, it does not have a slot-in, how do I even open the drive? I was able to see the DVD drive icon before, and select "OPEN" and the tray would open, now, I don't se anything.

Cannot get disc out of disc drive - Mac Book Pro - not showing the disc on finder and eject button is not working

I inserted a disc into the disc drive but it did not start up. It is not showing in Finder. When I press the eject key nothing happens. Can someone tell me how to get the disc out of the disc drive?

Try the tips here:
Get help with the slot-loading SuperDrive on your Mac computer - Apple Support
Especially holding the trackpad mouse button upon restart and resetting the SMC.
If it's stuck in there you might have to make a "guide" out of two thin pieces of plastic. Post back if that's the case.
