How do I eject the flash drive from an Officejet 8610 after scanning a file into it.

I used the front panel controls of my Officejet 8610 to scan an image into a flash drive plugged into the front panel of the 8610.
The 8610 recognized the presence of the drive just fine, and placed the scanned image on it as desired.
But for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to do a controlled ejection of the flash drive.  (I finally did a controlled power-down of the 8610 and removed the drive after the 8610 turned itself off.)
How do you do eject a flash drive from the front panel USB port?

  • How can I remove the hard drive from an iMac g4 before recycling it?

    How can I remove the hard drive from an iMac g4 before recycling it?

    There are take-apart guides online.  For example
    http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/imac_g4/imacg4_takeapart.html
    However, you can also consider securely erasing the hard drive instead.  You can do this using a Mac OS X installation disc with a version that your iMac G4 can boot from the optical drive.  If this is a viable option, please post back (include Mac OS X version on installation disc).

  • How do I see the flash drive?

    I have a flash drive plugged into the computer.   I see its icon in the Sidebar.  But it would be more convenient if I could see its icon on the Desktop.  How do I get the flash drive to appear on the Desktop?

    Finder -> Preferences -> General. Checkmark to show external disks. That should do it.

  • How do I eject the g drive once the backup is complete?

    I just backed up my laptop to an external hard drive.  Instructions say to "eject" the g drive prior to disconnecting the cord between the hard drive and the laptop.  How do I do that - I pressed the ESC button but that did not work.

    That would be selecting the drive picture on your desktop and either pressing command + e or clicking on it and dragging it to the trash on your Dock.  Alternatively, you could open Finder and right click on the drive on the left-hand list, then choose eject.

  • How to Access DATA, Physical Flash Drive from Host machine

    Hello Everyone,

    Hi,
    The Hyper-V forum is here:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/home?forum=winserverhyperv
    But, your question is relatively simple.  You will need to use standard Windows networking to access data from the host machine.  Depending on your version of Hyper-V, connecting to it via RDP from the host machine can use the RDP client's ability
    to access the host drives also.

  • How do I prevent the UltraNav driver from automatically installing?

    I have an x230 with Windows 8. As some of you might know, the UltraNav driver on Windows 8 does not allow the middle button to be used for middle-click. As a workaround, I use the Synaptics generic mouse driver, which works just fine.
    However, either Lenovo or Windows (I suspect the latter) persistently tries to reinstall the (evil) UltraNav driver, which kills middle-click functionality. So every once in a while when my system has been rebooted after updates, I find I can't middle click, which means I have to manually uninstall the UltraNav driver, reboot once, install the Synaptics generic driver, reboot again.
    This is a huge hassle, and I'd appreciate any help I can get.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Actually, Windows Update itself seems to have nothing to do with it. (It took me a while to realize it wasn't working since I rarely shut down my laptop.)
    I have a strong feeling the culprit is here:
    open Devices & Printers. (Type it into the Start Screen and it will be under Settings)
    Right click your laptop's icon and click Device Installation Settings
    Select: No, let me choose what to do; Never install driver software from Windows Update
    Hoping this works, because I seriously depend on the middle click button in AutoCAD. If you're used to opening/closing tabs with it, ctrl + left click works without too much extra effort. 

  • How do I transfer the iTunes library from my Mac to Windows without moving files?

    I have my Media on a Windows file share and currenty my Mac's iTunes library is pointed there. I just installed iTunes on my Windows box and now I want to transfer the iTunes database( music, playcounts, playlist, etc ) to the Windows iTunes while keeping the files in place as they don't need to be moved.
    Both systems are authorized on my acount and have home sharing turned on. They are both pointed to the same Media folder in their library settings.
    How can I make the transfer without uncessary file copying?

    The key file is the library.itl file.  This is the file iTunes uses to store all the information it presents to you when you open the program.  Well, there's also a few other library files as well as the artwork folder, but the .itl file is the center of it.  You don't say whether or not the PC has its own library with unique content, or if you are trying to duplicate the library for both.  If the PC library is empty try copying the whole iTunes folder (which contains no media according to you) to the PC, then start iTunes with the shift key held down and guide iTunes to the new library file set (or copy it over the one currently on your PC and just start normally).

  • BUG: Sandisk USB flash drive in "half-mounted" state after wake from sleep

    My Sandisk Cruzer Crossfire 4GB Flash Drive is left in a half-mounted state after wake from sleep. The Finder believes the drive is still mounted, the icon is on the Desktop. However opening a file on the drive, or trying to eject the drive, results in a long beach ball, followed by a message that I removed the drive without Ejecting it first. The same drive continues to work fine on my Tiger machine, and on PCs.
    Bug Report:
    Setup:
    Macbook 1st Gen (2.0 Ghz)
    Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 Clean Install
    Sandisk Cruzer Crossfire 4GB USB Flash Drive (in either port)
    Repro:
    Plug in the drive.
    Close the MacBook to put it to sleep
    Reopen the MacBook
    Result:
    The lights on the flash drive never light back up after wake from sleep. Navigating the drive, or trying to eject it results in a "you removed the device without ejecting it first" message.
    Expected:
    Drive should still be mounted and accessible after waking back up.

    It may be a design flaw in the device. Mac OS X does a lot more power management than most other OSes, including tearing devices down to little or no power during sleep. It is possible that the device simply misbehaves due to corrupted memory state or reports a substantially different GUID or something similarly bizarre upon wake. (Okay, that last one wouldn't technically be a power management issue....)
    If it doesn't have any problems except when sleeping the system, I would just make sure I unmounted it before putting the machine to sleep and wouldn't worry about it. Maybe check with Sandisk to see if they have a firmware updater for the device.

  • Tiger "quits" when eject ext flash drive???? Addressless addressbook

    Folks:
    Issues continue to crop up with Tiger, unlike those seen in Panther. A week back was finishing up working on a document which I saved to ext flash drive--closed the writing app, moved doc into flash drive, then ejected Flash drive by control/click and then maybe closed another app or turned off airport wireless &&& then got black window saying "You need to restart your computer." Then after restarted got an error window that said something like -- "You had to re-start your computer because OSX quit in the middle of what you were doing." OHHHH, the computer crashed!!!!??? I have ejected the Flash drive many times without this problem. Console crashreporter log showed single line entry for the time period that it happened--Thu Jun 21 17:41:44 2007 crashdump[94]: crashdump invoked as panicdump.
    Is this what 4.10 is supposed to fix???
    2). Needed my Addressbook to get email address of friend--opened the "ALL" part and there was only 15 or so addresses instead of what should have been 147 or so. Went to one of the smaller groups folders and all of the addresses were there??? How can there be more addresses in sub-category folder than in the total "All" folder?? Flipped back to the "All" folder after that just seconds later and lo and behold--all addresses were there??? This actually never went on with Panther frankly were stuff disappeared and the reappears seconds later--Is this an example of the SMART folder??? Will 4.10 fix this issue??
    eep

    Folks:
    Looking for some thoughts or ideas on why the entire system would "quit"--perhaps due to ejecting a flash drive? That seems more serious than an addressless addressbook, although when needing an address, one might hope to find it in Addressbook, right? In Panther applications would "quit" just because it felt like it--but not the whole system. Is this "normal" now, routine?

  • How to Create a Bootable Flash Drive to do a clean install of Lion.  I have tried to use the InstallESD.dmg but it still will not do a clean install so that I do not have to do a reinstall from the Recovery (That just re downloads and takes over 6 hours)?

    How to Create a Bootable Flash Drive to do a clean install of Lion.  I have tried to use the InstallESD.dmg but it still will not do a clean install so that I do not have to do a reinstall from the Recovery (That just re downloads and takes over 6 hours)?
    The system I'm have is a Mac-mini that had SL on it and no SuperDrive.  I have also call Apple Support and they have really have not been to much help over 1st did my up grade to Lion and Installed the Lion Server.... it lost my SSL that I paid for and kill almost on of my server setting, plus kill all my web servers (using apache vhosts), and not to say the LDAP will even let remote users login to your laptops.
    PS: There is no way that I'm going to buy a Install USB from Apple... They have over billed me over $300.00 because the Apps Store still has bugs (Glad I did not write that App/Service)
    If there is anyone that can give in the information to create a USB install stick, I would be very thinkful.

    Here you are bro, courtesy of "softpedia.com"....brilliant site!!!
    If you ever had problems with your Mac OS X installation you know that the first thing you should do is to check the startup volume using Disk Utility.
    After the check has ended and, if the errors exceed a certain level of seriousness, the Disk Utility application will require you to restart your Mac and use its Mac OS X Install disc counterpart.
    Other users may have to reinstall OS X altogether, but will find, or already know, that their SuperDrive (a CD/DVD reader and write combo drive) is not functioning properly and it will not be able to read the Install disc.
    Although this might happen to Mac OS X Leopard users due to faultyhardware, the vast majority of problematic SuperDrives will be encountered inside Snow Leopard running Macs.
    This is due to the updated SuperDrive firmware included in either the Install disc or the software updates one has to install to reach the latest version of OS X, namely 10.6.6.
    This can be fixed by flashing the SuperDrive’s stock firmware using free command line tools that one can find for free online (I will write about this process also, but at a later time because this article only focuses on allowing you to create your own alternative USB boot disc).
    If you are reading this last bit of information with skepticism, than you should know that it happened to me too. Despite all my tries to make it work properly, the SuperDrive kept on munching any inserted DVDs and just popped them out in about twenty seconds.
    The workaround to this issue was to create my own Leopard bootable USB memory stick. I am not suggesting a Snow Leopard bootable stick mainly because there are lots of users that have decided to buy the cheaper, Upgrade version, which I have not tested and, therefore, I’m not sure if it will work properly once written to a USB disk.
    And now, here are the exact steps you should follow in order to obtain a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) Install disc.
    Step 1 (If you already have the Leopard install disc DMG file you can skip to Step 2)
    Launch Disk Utility (you can find it inside /Applications/Utilities). Here select the Leopard Install disc in the list of drives on the left and click on the New Image menu entry at the top of the window. A save message will appear where you will have to select the Desktop as a destination.
    Step 2
    After Disk Utility has finished creating the Leopard DMG, insert your USB stick and erase all data and reformat the disk. To do this select the USB in the list of drives on the left and, after clicking on the Erase tab on the right side of the window, choose the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format and click the Erase button beneath.
    Step 3
    After the USB has been reformatted, download the SuperDuper app from HERE and launch it. Once SuperDuper starts, you will only have to select the DMG in the Copy drop-down menu, your USB memory stick on the right and hit the “Copy Now” button.
    One can also use Disk Utility for this task but creating a bootable USB stick failed 2 out 4 times when copying the DMG to the stick (with the exact same settings each time). Creating the bootable stick using SuperDuper proved to be the perfect way to do it because it worked each of the 4 times I tested it.
    The steps above can also be used to create a bootable Mac OS X Lion USB by using the InstallESD.dmg image you can find inside the Lion installer (named “Install Mac OS X Lion.app”) downloaded from the Mac App Store in the /Applications folder.
    To locate the InstallESD.dmg right click the Lion installer, select the “Show Package Contents” entry, go inside the “Contents” folder, and from there into the “SharedSupport” folder. Inside this folder you can find the InstallESD.dmg you can use to create your own bootable Mac OS X Lion USB stick. To do so, go to the third step described above and use the InstallESD.dmg as the DMG to be copied to your USB disc.
    That’s it! Once the process ends you will have a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) USB disk that you can use as an alternative to the Apple’s DVD Install disc that comes bundled with all Macs.
    To use your newly created bootable disk you will have to restart the Mac, press and hold the OPTION key until the StartupManager appears. Here, select the Mac OS X Install disk using your keyboard arrows and press return to start from the selected drive.
