Hard disk on AEBS will not respond

Having setup the aebs with no problem I added a hard disk to the network which was ok for a short time but at random when you double click the hard disk the spinning wheel of death appears and I cannot access the disk.Then go through the palava of adding the hd again and the same happens. Any ideas ? I have latest firmware and software. The ext hard drive is iomega.

Hi mar_ry,
It sounds like you have done a couple of the major steps in troubleshooting your iPod.  Still, please read through this article to the end.

  • 09 I Mac goes asleep ends up with a spinning disk on the screen and the mac will not respond has to be rebooted

    09 I Mac goes asleep ends up with a spinning disk on the screen and the mac will not respond has to be rebooted

    First this:
    In EnergySaver deselect "put the hard disk to sleep when possible". You must logout after the setting to make this effective.
    This probably will not solve it, but let it be deselected.
    When the issue is still there:
    Open Terminal;
    copy/paste following command (after every command hit "enter" key)
    pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
    when the answer is not 3 write it down;
    then copy/paste following command
    sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
    reboot
    Open Terminal;
    copy/paste following command
    sudo rm /var/vm/sleepimage
    after that type EXIT in Terminal and close Terminal.
    This does following for you:
    it will set the hibernatemode to zero: the sleepimage (a copy of the complete ram) will not be written and the space on the HD is freed up.
    This sleepimage does not do anything for you but taking time at sleep/hibernate and startup. It is an old remnant of earlier days.

  • Finder will not respond

    To cut a long story short, I got a video ipod and needed to upgrade my OSX to 10.3.4, I did so and all my applications work, I didn't lose anything and everything appears to be fine, however, my finder will not respond. If I right-click it in the dock it just displays "Finder not responding" and in the top tool bar nothing appears apart from the relevant menus to any application (but not the finder menus).
    If I go into Word and try to save something, I can see my Hard disk and desktop folders, but they don't appear on the desktop itself.
    I'm quite frustrated, please help if you have any ideas.
    Thank you.

    Hello again Colin
    Sounds like time for plan B.
    1. Put your OS 10.3.4 startup disk in the machine.
    2. Turn the machine off using the power button.
    3. Wait a few seconds.
    4. Turn the machine on whilst holding down the 'c' key. It will take longer than usual to start up but should start using the operating system on the disk.
    5. Once up and running take your finger off the 'c' key (you cn take it off earlier than this but as this is your first time keep it there).
    6. In the finder open applications/utilities/disk utility.
    7. Select the hard drive icon that appears in the top of the left hand directory window.
    8. Click on repair permissions.
    9. Go and make a cup of tea (if this is the first time you have done this it will take some time).
    10. If you get any red messages once permissions have been repaired, unlikely, run disk permissions again until all appears OK (no redness!)
    11. Restart your machine using the apple menue comand in the normal way (touch no keys).
    This is the maintenance/repair permissions process we are talking about. It is best to do this (from your hard drive when not having problems) before and after any software installations, including software update, and on a monthly/6 wekly basis in any case.
    If this does not work we will need to resort to you getting hold of a copy of disk warrior. But post back if the above process does not help. The recent Itunes update has presented a few challenges (whith an unlikely solution!) but we need your finder to be at least available to fix that problem if you have it.

  • Using Mac OSX Install Disc 1, I am not able to get any further than the Partition tab.  It allows me to select my hard drive selection, but will not allow me to make any other selections.  Does anyone know their way around this obstacle?  Thanks!

    Using Mac OSX Install Disc 1, I am not able to get any further than the Partition tab.  It allows me to select my hard drive selection, but will not allow me to make any other selections such as options.  Does anyone know their way around this obstacle?  Am I doing anything wrong?  Thanks

    Hello, The Hatter, I read about the 'trick' of backing up, erasing, and restoring too, but I figured it would take longer than defragmenting the disk.
    But the defragmentation process has just finished! so I'm gonna try to run Boot Camp again soon!
    Thanks for your helpfulness, anyway.
    And P.S. I didn't clone my system onto the external drive, I just inserted the Mac OS X Install CD, rebooted holding down the "C" key, and installed a fresh Snow Leopard system onto the predetermined partition. I will use that in cases of emergency, when my main/internal system becomes unusable.

  • Will not respond when clicking on a hyper link

    when i click on a button, or text link, or similar - often nothing happens. When logging in to certain sites (but not all), it will not respond to user name and password entry.
    Some times Firefox takes ages to respond- others it's as quick as a flash.
    If i didn't know better, i would think it had suffered the effects of a trojan - but i have deleted Firefox twice now, and all associated files. I have rebuilt my iMac from scratch with a freshly partitioned hard drive and performed a fresh installation. Also, my iMac is running the latest version of Kaspersky - as it has done since bought in 2009.
    At this moment in time, it has been uninstalled until i get some idea what to try. It had 2 plug ins installed 3 weeks ago - Colorzilla and Firebug3 - but as i understand it, these are 'certified' add ons for firefox.
    Any help would be appreciated, because i depend on firefox for developing Wordpress based web sites.

    Hi homeworkers,
    I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • HT1339 Error: This game cannot be launched. Ipod will not respond

    I have an error message on my iPod classic.  It states, Error:  This game cannot be launched.  And now my iPod wheel will not respond.  I am unable to shut it down or connect it to my iTunes.

    Try a hard reset.  This procedure does not erase any content stored on the device. It is similar to rebooting your PC.  To reset the iPod, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

    NTFS is your problem.
    iPhoto needs to have the Library sitting on disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Users with the Library sitting on disks otherwise formatted regularly report issues including, but not limited to, importing, exporting, saving edits and sharing the photos.

  • HELP: Recording IChat Conversation with GarageBand - Will not respond

    Hi guys,
    I recently recorded an important conversation on IChat video with someone using GarageBand (the voice part) but before stopping recording on GB I closed the video chat window. I think that messed up to the recording and now the GB will not respond (Rainbow disk keeps spinning) I know I could just force quit but I don't want to lose the conversation it was 2 hours of work (REALLY IMPORTANT WORK) If anyone could offer some advice of what I should do I don't want to Force Quit incase there is a solution. Thank you so much for any help and I really need it so if anyone has any advice please tell me ASAP!!!
    Thanks Again!
    Harry

    Here's what you should try. Locate the folder where the recordings are stored:
    http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/FAQPages/AIFFsStored.html
    Don't mess with the contents but make a copy of the Media folder (by alt-dragging it to the Desktop, for example). Then force-quit GB and try to open your project again. If your tracks aren't there, try to rescue them from the copy you made!

  • HT201109 My FCPX will not respond

    My final cut pro x will not respond. It worked fine yesterday and now nothing. All I get is the spinning ball and nothing will open. I then check and it says it is not responding I have multiple video I am making and can not loose them.

    Trash your preferences (use Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion) and repair permissions (use Disk Utility).
    Hide your events and projects from FCP and then launch the application. Does it open? Then try with just the projects with no media. Then try adding one event at a time, closing the application each time. You're trying to determine if the application has a problem and then trying to isolate where the problem is.

  • MacBook bluetooth will not respond

    I am a huge fan of built in bluetooth. I use it with my phone as a wireless model, I send files, make skype calls, and even listen to music on the sales floor. About one month ago I noticed that it would not connect to the phone to sync. I didn't think much of it at the time. Then I noticed that it would not do anything.
    I can activate bluetooth from the menu bar. I can navigate to any menu I need just fine, but when I try to send a file or search for a new device it will not respond. The button will react for a second but it will not search or send.
    In Internet connect the error I get is "Cannot open the communication device." Same when I try to change the sound settings to my headset.
    This is from a fresh install after my hard drive failed, under any and all user accounts. I reset the Pram also.
    I am thinking I need a new bluetooth module
    Here is what it shows under System Profiler
    Apple Bluetooth Software Version: 1.7.9f12
    Services:
    Bluetooth File Transfer:
    Folder other devices can browse: ~/Public
    Requires Authentication: No
    State: Disabled
    Bluetooth File Exchange:

    The obvious answer will be "bring it into an apple store. I am hoping there is some easy fix that I overlooked.
    Thanks,

    Anyways I wouldn't bother doing an
    archive and install if you don't have the time, but
    it could possiably be software...and that would have
    a good chance of solving it.
    I wish that was the case. I just did a clean install when I got the new hard drive so it shouldn't be software. I really didn't want to have to ship it in.
