  • Devices Icon not showing up

    I can't get the device icon to show up on the left bar. Even after I plug in SanDisk Sansa. I removed and reloaded the whole program. I went through the process of removing the library files to desktop and then reopening and bringing files back in. Nothing works. If I can't fix this is there another way to get the podcasts from computer to Sansa?

    It could be due to interference on the network. Check istumbler.net to verify

  • External device icon not showing

    i am using a MacBook 10.5.8
    The " icon " for the external device " Hard Drive " manufactured by Sea Gate will not show.
    Does any one know of words to search for ? while the external device has only shown a icon.
    I have gone into Terminal to look at " ps -ax " and thought maybe connected device`s might show up there.
    the procedure that i go thru to access the external device is, plug it into the machine and then plug in its power source.
    The device is operating , by what feels like a vibratory feeling vie the human paw grasping it , the external HD.
    i do not want to just unplug it "thinking" that, that would re set it, i have read in past posts that to just unplug could damage the integrity of the data in the external HD.
    assistance with this dilemma.
    Thank you.

    If it has not mounted (i.e it is not showing on the desktop) unplugging it will not interrupt any potential writes to the hard drive as it is not functioning, so that won't harm it.
    Before you remove it, try logging out and logging back in again as that can often re-establish a connection.
    You don't say if it is USB or Firewire, but I have found on occasion that a firewire connected hard drive that does not show on the Desktop, can be remedied, by disconnecting the drive and completely switching the Mac off and even removing the mains power cable and let it sit for 5 minutes. Doing this can reset the Firewire port.
    After restart, plugging the firewire ext. drive back shows up.
    EDIT: The above assumes the disk is sound, ie, you know it works.

  • Devices are not showing up in Finder sidebar

    All of a sudden attached devices are not showing up in the sidebar in finder nor on the desktop, have already checked Finder prefs and are all set correctly.
    Cant access files on attached hard drive and cant dismount. Upon pulling the plug I get the warning about not ejecting the device first.

    Try relaunching the Finder ...
    Hold down Option key and right click on Finder’s Dock icon, then select “Relaunch”.

  • I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts

    I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts.   All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window".  But what if you have no device window?

    Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
    I thought the libraries were the same.

  • USBTMC device does not show up in MAX.

    I have a USB device that will not show up in MAX.  When I plug the device into the computer, it is recognized as a USBTMC device and Windows chooses NiUsbTmc.sys as the driver.  I believe it also uses niusbtmc.inf and niusbtmc.pnf.  After going through the process and rebooting, the device shows up in the Windows device manager as a USB Test & Measurement device.  When I open MAX, the device does not show up in the device tree, nor can I seem to find a way to communicate with it.  So I uninstalled the device, removed the files above to a temp directory, rebooted, and then created a new inf file using the VISA driver wizard.  After going through that whole process, rebooting and then plugging the device back into the computer, I directed Windows to use the new inf file.  The device now shows up in the Windows device manger as a NI-VISA device and the driver is NiViUsbK.sys.  I open MAX back up and the device is nowhere to be found.  I tried using the VISA Interactive control to find the device, but no luck.  What step or steps am I missing?

    Just plugging the instrument in should have made the device appear as USBTMC in MAX and using the driver wizard is not correct. I don't understand why it didn't show up in MAX with either method though. I've only a small amount of experience with USBTMC but have used the wizard a lot for internally developed USB instruments and they have always appeared in MAX. What version of VISA are you using? The latest version is 4.1 that can be downloaded from http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/B1A783​7FFFD2826E8625729100689D3C?opendocument&node=13207​....

  • I am running Lion 10.7.2 and I have an external drive hooked to my time machine. I can't rename folders and when trying, I get an error code 8076. The checkbox "ignore permissions for this device" does not show on volume info. Help please???

    The TIme Machine volume does not have that checkbox.
    I think the issue is with your Finder...
    Go to Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences trash these files:
    com.apple.finder.plist
    com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
    Then, restart, or log out and in again.
    (You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)

  • App icons not showing up after downloading?

    Why do my app icons not show up on my iPad2? I have purchased the apps on my iPad directly. Also, I know they are there because when I search it finds them and then I can open and run them.

    Jennifer-
    Could the Apps be on the second page of Apps?  From your Home page, wipe across from right to left to scroll to page 2.
    If that is the problem, press and hold on the icon.  When it starts to wiggle, you can drag it back to the first page.  This can also be done from iTunes when the iPad is selected.

  • I lost my phone, and find my device app wont show its offline, does this mean my phone got restore?

    I lost my phone, and find my device app wont show its offline, does this mean my phone got restored

    It might have been restored, turned off, or just not have a data connection to the internet (such as by removing the sim card and turning off wifi).  If it appears on the devices list in Find My iPhone, you can issue a Lost Mode command, which will lock it with a passcode and display a message of your choosing if and when it goes back online (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165).

    Yesterday I reset my settings on my iphone 4 to correct a problem. Today I am unable to connect to itunes to sync my phone. The device does not show up on the screen. What can I do?

    Best practices says plug the USB cable into the computer, then plug the 30 pin connector into the iPhone.
    If everything is working correctly, you should be able to plug the iPhone in at any time. Before or after opening iTunes.
    Depending on what settings are selected in iTunes, the program may or may not automatically open when you connect the device.

  • Some Devices are not showing up at all in the Discovery reports

    Hi all,
    The first time I ran the CS device discovery I got 50 reachable devices. I scheduled the Device Discovery to be run every week. I added more subnets to the discovery but unfortunately the last discovery shows only 31 devices from the first discovered devices (50). I checked the DCR and there is only 44 devices out of the 50!
    My question is:
    Should not the scheduled Device Discovery discovers all devices -the previously discovered ones and the new ones-?
    Why the rest of the devices are not showing up at all in the discovery reports (neither reachable nor unreachable) although all of them are pingable and responding to the snmpwalk tool from the CWLMS server.
    Your kindly respond is highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    I ran the discovery again with the same settings after enabling debugging and I checked the following log files:
    1. in the ngdiscovery.log I found a lot of errors all about Duplicate IpAddress example:
    ERROR  [DeviceManager : EvalTask-DiscoveryThreadPool-06 addNewDevice]  : Duplicate IpAddress (127.0.0.51) found in addNewDevice().Device 1 ip = 10.8.113.29 , id1 = 127.0.0.51*F1COR.xyz.com*.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.283, Device 2 ip = 10.8.113.106 , id2 = 127.0.0.51*LCD.xyz.com*.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.283
    ERROR  [DeviceManager : EvalTask-DiscoveryThreadPool-08 updateDevice]  : Duplicate IpAddress (127.0.0.51) found in updateDevice().Device 1 ip = 10.8.113.93 , id1 = 127.0.0.51*UDS.xyz.com*.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.283, Device 2 ip = 10.8.113.73 , id2 = 127.0.0.51*F2COR.xyz.com*.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.283
    ERROR  [DeviceManager : EvalTask-DiscoveryThreadPool-09 addNewDevice]  : Duplicate IpAddress (10.8.113.42) found in addNewDevice().Device 1 ip = 10.8.113.42 , id1 = null, Device 2 ip = 10.8.113.86 , id2 = 10.8.118.251*OPS.xyz.sa*.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.501
    2. in the CSDiscovery.log:
    Error while changing the permission of the file C:\PROGRA~1\CSCOpx\objects\csdiscovery\1348\DiscoveryStatusObj
    I checked the file and the casusers has a Modify permission
    My Question is:
    1. what is the meaning of those output exactly?
    2. If CWLMS found duplicatedd IP address how it works in terms of (ignoring, updating existing devices, Adding the new devices, ... etc)
    Many thanks for your help.

  • My devices are not showing up on my itunes. How do i fix this?

    My devices are not showing up on my itunes to sync. how do i fix this?

    Why is this answer being accepted by users?  Am I supposed to restart my Mac EVERY TIME I want to sync my iPhone, iPad or iPod?
    Has anyone found a solution to this problem?  I see this question in the Apple Support forums quite frequently, and the answer always boils down to 'http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591' - Which - after exhausting the obvious, you've got a bad cable or bad USB port checklist - recommends that you 'Restart your Mac' to resolve the issue.
    That's not an adequate or acceptable answer - If Apple is ignoring this question, then they're the ones with a 'Problem' - Ignoring these obvious issues (this isn't a bad cable / bad USB port problem) is only going to lead to a loss of customers.  I'm certain that Apple has the technical expertise to investigate and resolve the underlying issue. The real question is 'does Apple still value the customer'?
    My iTunes (11.1.4) has stopped recognizing Devices (an iPad 2, an iPhone 5S, an iPod classic). This has been going on for about a month now (since 11.1.4?). Yes, I have the current OS (OS 10.9.1), yes my iDevice has the most recent iOS (just updated to 7.0.6 (1.1.2 for 160GB iPod Classic), yes my USB 3.0 ports work (after I reboot the computer). The syncing and connectivity works fine (with all my devices/cables/USB ports) until I disconnect my device - What good is my mobile device if I have to leave it tethered to my Mac in order to use it?
