Fire wire won't work on new i 7

I have the 800 to 400 adapter from Apple (came today) I have 4 external HD's with firewire 400. I want to transfer my photos but i mac i 7 will not show any of the hard drives, they all show on my mac mini.
Any ideas? I have tried an apple firewire cable, I have tried a lacie cable and cables that have come with my 3 my book hard drives. The i 7 just wont see the drives
Thanks
Joe

I forgot to mention Apple has a two week delay on the shipments of the 27" that was announced today although they wouldn't comment on why. The speculation is they want to rectify these problems.
And of course I don't think every Mac going out is problematic. I've been dialoguing with people elsewhere about whether to get the 21 or 27" and everyone who's talked to me is happy with both. I think they're sort of suggesting though get what I'm comfortable with although the people who have the 27" seem quite impressed.
I though realize that these machines have just been released and its always a bit risky buying the first of a series - not totally of course but frequently.
So as I've been trying to figure out what machine to buy a long with feedback and reviews I keep coming across these posts on deliveries with cracked screens etc. However, I was at the Apple store Monday to compare the 21, 27 and looked at the 24" Cinema Display and when I talked to the Apple rep I did ask her if they've had any problems with the units. She said no, not that she was aware of and she hadn't seen any come back. So possibly buying at the store would avoid the cracked screen problem as the people who seem to be reporting that are getting theirs delivered from the online store.
And on your hospital metaphor there is one thing to bear in mind; a lot of people who aren't in a hospital should be but that's a whole nother story.

Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1

Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1. I have downloaded the patch, it is installed but the old version is this there in elements. Thanks, esther

OK I think the problem is probably related to the platform swap and you may need your account re-set. Only Adobe staff can do that. You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
1. Adobe Photoshop Elements
2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”
It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. Have your serial number and previous case number available. The agent can directly troubleshoot your system if you agree to activate the Adobe Connect add-on.

Fire wire ports stopped working

This is pretty weird, even for a Saturday.
The fire wire ports on one of my G5's quit working while attached to 2 Western Digital external hard drives. The FW 800 port attached to a 9800xl MicroTek scanner quit too. Proofed all the wires and equipment on another computer with no problems.
I reran the 10.4.8 updater, with no luck.
I've been trying to run two MicroTek scanners on the computer at the same time. One connected thru fire wire, the other thru USB2. Can't seem to get the drivers to recognize the scanners at the same time. I have to uninstall the driver for the i900, before I can use the driver for the 9800xl.
I'm wondering if all my monkeying around precipitated my FW port probs?
How does fire wire work? is it a direct hook up to the processor thru the mother board, or is it a modular connection. I'm thinking about installing a PCI slot set of ports, but before I do that I would like to determine whether I'm cooking up a conflict.
thanks,
andojct

Fire wire 800 not working on IMAC

My Fire wire port on my IMAC 24 inch is not working now. I have tried switching cables, etc. This started when I had to have the hard drive replaced. The drives do work if connected by USB or FW 400.
John

Have you reset your SMC and PRAM? If that doesn't get your FW800 port going, run the Apple Hardware Test to see if it spots any hardware problem.

The 2.1.3 Software update won't work, the new version of iTunes won't download. Please help.

For several months now I have not been able to find a solution to either of these two problems. When I have the Apple Software Update program open and I click update, it loads for a second and then goes back to the usual page saying to update. It will not update. I have also tried, multiple times, to install the new current version of iTunes and that won't work either. I've tried to repair iTunes by going to Control Panel > Programs > Repair and it still won't work. Please help because I'm trying to download a new app but it requires the new version of iTunes. I am using a Windows Vista and I'm this is for my 4th generation iPod touch.

Did you try simply downloading the latest version of iTunes using the link below and then installing it on top of the older version?

Fire wire cam doesnt work im messages chat

my fire wire Unibrain cam does not connect in messages chat and I cannot receive the other persons cam
. Are there settings I should correct. I am using 10.8.4

HI,
So you are getting video in to the App.
So any Firewire 400/800 issues are moot.
Next step.
In the Video Menu is the Video option dark and active text and is it ticked ?
In the View Menu is Show Video Status ticked ?
This Menu and the items from show Buddy Pics down rely on a Buddy list being "front" (More on that in sec).
The first of these makes sure the camera is On and the second makes sure the Buddy Lists display the Video icons.
If there is not enough Internet Speed for Video Chats then the Video items may be ticked but greyed out.
To make sure you can see the Buddy Lists go to the Window Menu.
If you have set up iMessages and nothing else except Enable the Bonjour account then the Buddies item will dispaly the Bonjour list.
If you have AIM, Jabber or Yahoo IDs set up as well then the Buddies item is a combined list.
You can unlink them in the General section of the Preferences.
The Window Menu will change to list the Buddy Lists by the Description Fields in the Accounts section
An AIM Buddy list for example should display green Video icons next to the Buddies.
In this my other logged in AIM valid Names show up under Family and an Apple Test accounts shows in Auto Responders (you can't Video with yourself but you an add the Buddy name to a Buddy list).
Only Jabber Buddy list will do this as well as the Yahoo option is Text only.
However it does have to be AIM to AIM or Jabber to Jabber.
AIM in this sense includes the Apple Issued IDs with the ending of @mac.com, @me.com and @icloud.com
Jabber ones can include GoogleTalk and Facebook IDs if you have Enabled Talk at Google or Chat at Facebook.
Sticking with the AIM case you would then click on the green video icon as one method of Starting a Video Chat.
As it is an AIM Buddy list the Buddy should be an AIM vlaid Buddy.
Note
Apple IDs obviously have an @ in them and in most cases are valid emails (or have been in the past)
They are valid with the AIM service
GoogleMail IDs are then valid Jabber IDs once you enable Talk in Products at Google. Facebook also uses the users email Address.
The can means that fro both services an email address is the valid ID.
Other Jabber IDs may not be email but do follow the [email protected] format.
This means it is possible to add the IDs or Screen Names from one service to the Buddy list of another.
The Buddy will appear Off line in these case but you will not be told they are not a valid Buddy.
If the chat fails at this point you normally get some sort of alert message.
It may even have pop up that can be expanded for more details.
You may see more in the Video Menu > Connection Doctor > Errors tab
If you have an AIM Buddy list then try adding the Apple Test Accounts. See table 1
There used to be 6 (three plain AIM names and three @mac.com versions).
It tends to be that only 1 or 2 are On at any one time now.
Can you connect to this "Buddy" ?

Panasonic KX-p7105 printer won't work on new mac - has disk for Mac OS 9.2

I finally switched to a Mac and am so disappointed that my great laser printer won't work. It prints pages of gibberish. My driver disk is for an older version of mac and won't open. I get a message saying "You can't open the network setup tool because the classic environment is no longer supported." I've since searched the net for drivers and can only find windows versions. Is this hopeless? Should I return my Mac (I'm still within the 14 days and don't want to buy another laser printer).
Any options?

Recovery won't work on new upgraded hardrive for L505d-es5025

Recently I was using my computer and got a blank (black)screen on resume from sleep mode. I rebooted and everthing was fine. Then the problem revisited. I took out the hard drive and placed it in a usb enclosure and did a disk check and was unable to fix some of the sectors. I did a format and encounted problems towards the end of the process.It startted giving a clicking sound I then replaced the dsk with a Western Digital Scorpio blue 500 g 5400 rpm( matching the requirements of the previuos drive) Both the recovery disk( the ones I created and the ones I purchased from Toshiba) did an incomplete recovery then would not go pass loading the windows boot file. The screen stays blank and there is no further reading of the disk. I then installed a new Seagate 500 g with the same specs as the disk I am replacing. The recovery program read and started copying files, then it stops and gives a black screen. I restarted the process, and as before, it shows windows loading setup files then goes to a black screen. (note in between tries, I powered down the system, removed the batteries and pressed the power key for 30 seconds)
Is the recovery process not workng because the chipset on the mother board only allows toshiba drives to be installed?
The recovery does not work on new drives and I will have to purchase a retail version of Windows?
Please advise
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The recovery went through but the drivers and the internet access were disabled. I could not open the wireless connection to configure; windows gave a error message that it cannot open that feature. The sounds, sleep and hibernation feature were disabled.
You didn't tell us that before. You told us the recovery didn't happen. What you're encountering there is consistent with restoring to an AFT drive.
You should try installing a new storage driver at that point.
Intel Rapid Storage Technology
The only problem is I cannot read the license /product key on my Toshiba. ... Comp USA is saying only a retail version or an image of windows seven(using my product key) will work on any newly installed drive for the L505D notebook
The missing key is inconsequential. It doesn't work for the retail version anyway.
If you were to install Windows 7 Home Premium, Microsoft would activate it for you by giving you a key. It was paid for when the computer was purchased. (I have done this myself.)
But it's better to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. All the drivers and utilities are preinstalled and Windows is preactivated.

My amazon download of CS6 for windows 7 won't work on new PC with window 8. HELP!!

why wont' CS6 work on new PC with Windows 8?
my email is [email protected]

Solved my own problem. Sorry for the spam. :-)
Windows does not support multiple gateways. I had foregotten I had a 2nd wireless access point/router plugged into the network (Cisco/Linksys E1000). That router had been working fine in combination with old SpeedStream DSL router from Verizon, but apparently it introduced a second gateway address which was in conflict with GT704WGB.
Solution:
1. Unplug Cisco E1000. Reset it to factory settings by pushing red button.
2. Plug Cisco E1000 back into network.
3. Use Cisco CD and setup.exe to "install" E1000.
4. Use Cisco CD and Cisco Connect to reconfigure E1000.
5. Done.

Old USB cords won't work, or new

My kids and I each have an iPod Classic, so of course we each have an iPod USB cord. When we connect any of them to the computer they will not charge or acknowledge who's (i.e. Kim's ipod) iPod it is. I have also bought two new cables and they do not work. I can my camera USB cord in the same port for and have no problem uploading pictures. Why will the cords not work? HELP!!!!

Hi virginiagal
i think the best thing to do is to take your ipods and cables into the apple store genius bar http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/. they will try it out and maybe the experts will be able to solve your problem. I think its probably your computer as its unlikely that a new cable won't fail at the same time an old one does. I would say it was the ipods but its very unlikely that more than one ipod would fail at the same time.
Good luck maybe theres someone out there who can help online, but its hard to try and solve your problem without seeing your ipod cable computer etc.

My s/n for PC to Mac Upgrade won't work for new install for CS6 on Mac

I bought CS5 in 2011 for PC, then upgraded to CS6 for Mac (HUGE hassle) in 2012. Trying to install on my new computer, and I can't select CS6 from the list. The serial number for CS5 don't work (probably because they were for a PC OS), and the upgrade s/n for CS6, says the s/n is valid, but won't let me select CS6 from the list. This discussion thing is a hassle!! I've been "discussing" this for 2 days with no luck. Isn't there someone I can phone? Help!
