Failed superdrive (Pioneer K06), hard to find a replacement

This 1.5 year drive failed to eject my DVD tonight, it tries but something is mechanically binding. It's been making noise for a while. I've looked online for the same model without luck. Only place is OWC with an off brand pretty much in the whole world apparently. I'd like to keep the internal drive working, I've used 2 different external drives at times but the internal has just worked better.
Anybody else replaced this drive and where'd you get the part?

There are probably a dozen superdrive models that will physically fit (you can find them on eBay), but there's really no way to know if the firmware will be compatible with the drivers installed in the OS. I tried two different drives made for MacBook laptops, and although they installed easily in the Mini neither one worked. I finally went with OWC, which does seem to be the only reliable source. (OWC has good products, and good support.)
I've read that re-installing the OS will sometimes solve this problem; supposedly the installer checks to see what superdrive is present and installs the corrrect driver. You'd need a bootable external DVD drive to try it.

Logon failed. Details: mscorlib : Could not find file.... XSD

I have been searching the forums and the web for hours and have not found a solution to a problem we are having. We upgraded our reports from VS.NET 2003 to VS.NET 2008 and started getting the below error upon our Report.Export code.
Logon failed. Details: mscorlib : Could not find file 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\xxx\ConsolidatedReports\Designers\xxxFringe\xxxFringeFunderDetail.xsd'. Failed to export the report. Error in File C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\temp_90ed8e07-481c-4bdb-8c50-885854a143d0 {B8EC61FE-7931-4979-AD92-432C21013D77}.rpt: Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters.
So when I verify the XSD and set the data source location (XML File Path: C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\xxx\ConsolidatedReports\Designers\xxxFringe\xxxFringe.xsd) the report works fine. The problem is that when another developer trys to run the report on their machine and their machine has a different path for the code, the report fails. The odd thing is that some of our reports are working fine, it is only a few that basically are looking for the hard coded XSD path.
So, as far as I can tell the XSD are not needed (Re: ADO.Net (XML) Data Source File Path). I have applied SP1 for Crystal Reports. I am totally confused why this started and why the report is looking for a "hard coded" path to the XSD.

The RunReport is called by a button click on a form. This method calls ExportFile which works until the line "Report.Export()" is hit.

Hard to find ripping naming conventions

?In Mediasource Player 3.3, I had a really hard time finding the naming convention settingsdialog. It is in the media folder format settings option. I ended up with a bunch of ripped tracksthat had the track name twice and couldn't find the option. Hopefully this thread will help someoneso they don't have to struggle as much as I did. In the Settings pop-up the PC Music Library tab,and the Properties button under the first item which is the name of your current PC Music libraryname. I had failed to change the last box on the bottom right from track name to none. Ta paj692

I guess the argument against your argument is that your code should be as self-documenting as possible. In your code, I'll see "Event". Great. java.awt.Event? No (annoyance #1 already). Your base Event? I wouldn't know, need to check the imports first. Aaahh, scrolled up and saw: your special implementation Event it was. Although, I will not see that if I'm not familiar with your package structure and you're doing package imports.
Create packages for functional groups, otherwise you'll end up with loads of unnecessary public declarations because your helper classes are splattered all over the place and can't just rely on in-package visibility.
And by the way, using polymorphism properly like you don't seem to do, you'll screw yourself, because you'll in future have to do things like:
Event ev = new com.mystuff.special.implementation.Event();Because you can't import both the interface/superclass and the implementation. Congratulations.

Anyone know how to find and replace a hard drive cable fo an HP Pavilion zv5160us laptop?

I received message that my hard drive had failed. I ordered an identical drive and replaced it. I now get error message:
PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F: exiting PXE ROM
The recovery disks will not reformat the drive. What does the cable look like. Can it be replaced? Where could I find one?
Thanks for any help as I have bought new hard drive, more memory and recovery disks. Hate to lose my investment completely. Should have just bought a new laptop!

New to Apple and it is so hard to find anything etc Nothing as easy as XP

Hi everyone I have just got the laptop thought I would go for the best. All the hype is just not living up to it everything you do is twice as long as on XP. Finding folders, finding where your downloads have gone when you do find it and install it you cannot find where it has gone. Putting Icons on your folders is just a nightmare so long winded. I can see why people are not buying apple it is just so difficult to find things. I dare say I will get used to it but the help is pretty awful as well. I am seriously thinking of selling it as it is unfriendly so I cannot understand the hype.
I downloaded an icon set when eventually I found them on the apple site again they are ridiculously hard to find on the site. I downloaded a screen saver the anemone but cannot find where it goes to. I found it in the download folder and installed it assuming it goes to the screensavers but no. So where has it gone? Hunting for system folders again cannot find them. I see apple is so different to XP cannot find any folders so I assume they do not exist. I am very disappointed with apple I think one needs to come straight in to apple computers and not touch windows as it just does not help when one changes to apple.
But if anyone can help me to find where the anemone screensaver would of gone too please do? End of rant and I am trying to persevere but I am so unimpressed so far. I need converting.

A couple of points..
1) downloads - go to your home folder, look in "Downloads"
2) System Folders - don't worry about them. As a newcomer to mac, there's almost nothing in there you can tinker with. Even the most die-hard mac users rarely have need to delve around in there.
3) Finding things?
"Spotlight" at top right is an immensely powerful search system. The magnifying glass.
Try the sidebar "Search for" options too.
4) How things work... just try dragging and dropping them. Unlike Windows, try to get away from the mindset of "I need to use this program to do this to that file" - think more like "what would be neat is if I simply clicked this and it worked..." think in terms of tasks, not programs.
5) Icons - highlight the icon you want to copy. Get-Info (apple-I) click on the icon itself, Copy (apple-C) Highlight the file/folder you want to change the icon on. Get-info, Click on the icon, Paste (apple-V) (much more work to write down than to actually do!)
For example your screen saver.
Download it.
Double click on it.
It should (assuming its a mac screensaver open your screen saver utility (in System preferences) and allow you to configure it. No installing, no system folder...
Cant find it? Use Spotlight to search for "anemone" - or perhaps 'anemona'
Or in Safari, in Windows->Downloads (the download manager) theres a little mag glass that means "show in Finder" click on that.
If you have a local apple store, stop by one day, and chat with one of their staff. Smart folks who are always ready to help.

My win8 pc hard drive failed. After the hard drive was replaced, I copied iTunes Media backupfiles from external hard drive (Karen's Replicator backup software was used). ITunes does not recognize these back up files even though the location is the same as cloud & recently burned music that does show- help! The backup files consist of 34,000+ songs; almost all burned from my own CD collection. I do have most of the songs on an ipod classic but hesitate to try to restore from that. Can someone tell me how to get these 34,000 songs to show up in iTunes? Thanks!!

This diagram shows how a typical iTunes library ought to be set out (click on it to enlarge)
The red outline highlights the media folder and its contents, the various subfolders are only created if that kind of content is in your library. The right-hand side shows the files that should be found in the iTunes library folder; sentinel is normally hidden so may not be visible. The core of your iTunes library is the file iTunes Library.itl, you need to restore this, the other library files and the Album Artwork folder, as well as the media folder, to restore your library.

Sudden fail to read external hard drive

Hi, Im using both OSX and Windows 8.
And I usually store my stuffs such as movies, documents, and some utilities in my 1TB external hard drive. And Its format is "Mac OS Extended".
There was no problem until just now. After I got home and tried to load out some stuffs inside this external hard drive, finder says it could not find this external hard drive.
So I executed disk utility in order to repair disk ASAP before this situation getting worse. but this time, Disk Utility says "Error: Disk Utility can't repair this disk... disk, and restore your backed-up files."
I was so confused about how this happened to this EHD, and don't know what to do with my 8years old documents and movies inside.
With all my wishes, I connected this EHD with my Windows8, somehow it can read this EHD and nothing problems. And still my stuffs alive.
Any suggestions to make my Mac to read this EHD again in order to solve this inconvenience?

Copy all the information onto an ExFAT formatted hard drive.
Your hard drive is likely dying.
ExFAT is likely more readable than HFS+ by both machines.

Hello Vamsi,
check Note 647495 - RFC for Unicode ./. non-Unicode Connections
If your ERP system sends e. g. chinese data to the SCM system, how should the system know which codepage to use? You have to set the MDMP flag in your ERP system in SM59 and configure in the MDMP extended settings which codepage should be used for what language.
Please check this thread - IDoc error - Could not find code page for receiving system
Hope it helps,

Mine is ipod touch 1st generation..its very hard to find the accessories, where can i find it?

mine is ipod touch 1st generation..its very hard to find the accessories, where can i find it? and some application couldnt work, for example: nike+

What "accessories" are you looking for?
The Nike+ app now requires iOS 4, and since that version of iOS won't run on a 1st-generation iPod touch, you will not be able to run that app.

Zen Touch Hard to find

Why is the Zen touch so hard to find? None of my local reatilers have it, i.e. Best Buy, Circuit City, CompUSA. CompUSA did have it, but when I went back to go purchase it, they did not stock it any more. Then I tried Amazon, and they didn't have any in stock. They all have the Micro or the Xtra, but not the touch
Is this player going to be discontinued, or is it just that popular? I know it is available from other on-line retailers, can anyone give some suggestions as to which one is good to buy from?
Thanks, Mark

try www.buy.com
I used that site to get my zen touch for a good price when they first came out.

If it worked for Kevin Rose of TSS, then
I figured I may as well try it.
