I bought a used PowerMacPC G5. I can burn and read DVDs, but I can't read or burn CDs. The CDs are not even recognized. After the drive searches for a while, the CD is ejected without any error messages. The CDs work okay on my iMac.

I bought a used PowerMacPC G5. I can burn and read DVDs, but I can't read or burn CDs. The CDs are not even recognized. After the drive searches for a while, the CD is ejected without any error messages. The CDs work okay on my iMac.
I am running Mac OSX 10.4.11. According to the System profiler the CD/DVD drive is a "PioneerDVD-RWDVR-112D." When I compare the information under this heading, the only unusual difference from my iMac is that the G5 reads "Burn Support: Yes (Unsupported)." My iMac reads "Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)."
Under the System Preferences the options are set to "Ask what to do" when a blank CD or DVD is inserted. Music CD set to open iTunes, Picture CD set to open iPhoto, Video DVD set to open DVD player.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks, Jack

Can't read disk label: Booting Blade from CDROM

Folks !
I am trying to boot Sun Blade 100 from its internal IDE CD-ROM drive
using the Solaris 8 boot/installation CD (01/01). When I give the command
"boot cdrom" from ok fromt in OpenBoot, disk seems to spin for a moment
(green light comes on) but it eventually fails complaining:
can't read disk label
can'open disk label package
failed to open boot device.
I have tried following (all to no avail)
"boot /pci@1f,0/ide@d/cdrom@1,0:f" since devalias shows that cdrom is aliased to above. I also tried cdrom@0,0:f, but same result.
tried boot/installation CD from Solaris 9
did set-defaults reset-all
checked probe-ide and show disks output to make sure CDROM is recognized - it is primary slave.
swapped another IDE CD-ROM drived pulled from a PC. It was recognized but still not bootable.
Makes me wonder if PROM/NVRAM is corrupted. Hard disk
drive is trashed as such (another Blade 100 problem, since it was crashing
often, I had to force powerdown using the switch eventually leading
to corruption of basic files like /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1, so I can't force fsck)
I have to boot from CD to recover the machine and hopefully
repair the disk drive or swap it out and upgrade to Solaris 9.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks very much.

as per the message it appears either you have a bad CD drive or CD media . If you have another machine try to boot this CD and verify it is working there. If the CD is ok you will have to swap the cd drive for testing

Can't read disk label

Dear Sun experts,
I am trying to install Solaris 9 on a Sun Ultra 10 Sparc workstation. This system formerly had Solaris 8 on it, but we decided to do a reinstallation to configure things the way we wanted them.Before doing that we encountered a few problems
1.The system failed to recognize the Dell Ultra Sharp Monitor, when the signal cable was plugged into the port behind the computer. To solve this we researched and were told to remove the Video card attached to the mother board, and this we did.The system now recognized the dell monitor and booted in Solaris 8.
2.We ran sys-unconfig to reconfigure the system to change the hostname on a reboot.We powered off the computer.Afterward we would go through the sys-unconfig program in an indefinite loop.So I powered off the computer each time i got stuck.
3.Lastly I tried to do a STOP A to try to go to the 'ok' prompt in order to do a clean installation of Solaris 8 Installation CD, by running
ok boot cdrom [ENTER]
Here's what I am getting:
Boot device: /pci@1f, 0/pci@1,1/ide@3/cdrom@2,0:f File and args:
Can't read disk label.
Can't open disk label package
Can't open boot device
ok
[end]
I want to do a clean installation of the Solaris 9 CD on the sparc ultra 10 computer.Please can anyone help me out? I looked at the solaris 9 installation guide, and it asked that I follow this procedure. Please respond if you can help.
Also of note is that I got this system from a user who had installed Solaris 8 sparc on it earlier.
Thanks a million!

Hi!
After a day fighting with same problem and found no good solution on the internet , I was able to do a workaround in order to be able to boot my sun bade 1500 that was giving the "can't open disk label" message.
I found no source of the problem but someone with more knowledge could guess. (maybe a default bad alias definition of cdrom ��?)
Well, first of all I plugued a normal IDE CDrom as primary slave, leaving IDE HD as primary master. And inserted solaris 8 installation CD (as it was my only solaris bootable CD, but I guess that I oculd boot any other CD).
After that, I went to the openboot prompt (ok>) and did next:
ok devalias cdrom - this will show you current path to internal CD. Use this to determine what new alias should look like.
ok setenv auto-boot? false
ok reset-all
ok probe-scsi-all - find the path to the new cdrom - write it down & write target # as well
ok show-disks - find the exact path you just wrote down and type that letter
ok nvalias cdrom2 [Ctrl] + [y] which will paste that path. Finish with @sd1,0:f AS IT's PRIMARY SLAVE
ok reset-all
ok boot cdrom2
I found this part in http://www.experts-exchange.com/Operating_Systems/Solaris/Q_ 20757891.html
except teh @sd1,0:f, I found that with my good luck!
After that I was able to boot with CD. the installation failed, but at least I was able to mount / filesystem and modify my /etc/passwd ... my target!
HTH
Cheers!

Can' t read disk label, install issues

can' t read disk label, install issues
i am trying to install solaris 8 on a sparc5 (256mb, 4.2gb,110mhz). i initially installed using the installation disk and it seemed successful as i was able to load the rest of the cds. something went wrong though b/c the system is stuck in a rebooting loop after it finished the last cd. so i went searching and found that i could only have a root partition of no bigger than 1gb. since i used the installation disk, i was not given an option to specify slice sizes. so now, i am trying to redo the install starting from the first disk (1 of 2) and skipping the installation disk. when i do a "boot cdrom" with the 1 of 2 disk, i get the cant read disk label or something about short entry and it will not boot. i am using actual Solaris 8 cds and not downloads. what can i do to get it to boot up from the first disk, or fix the partitioning on the disk?

I am using the offical Solaris 8 Installation 2/02 for SPARC Platform Edition for Sun Computer Systems February 2002, Revision A
Output from the probe-ide command follows:
device 0 (Primary Master)
ATA Model: ST3160023A
device 1 (Primary Slave)
Removable ATAPI Model: LTN4865
device 2 (Secondary Master)
ATA Model: ST340016A
device 3 (Secondary Slave)
not present
device 0 is the new hard disk that I just installed
device 1 is the CDR drive
device 2 is the original hard disk. I can boot this but now get some magic disk errors or something like that
device 3 is not present
I have all devices set to cable select according to the manual.
Thanks for your help...

Hi my dvd, cd rom does not read cd or dvd on my macbook pro, Hi my dvd, cd rom does not read cd or dvd on my macbook pro

Hi
I recently bought a macbook pro laptop from ebay, the cd, dvd rom doesn't read any cd or dvd. ejects it after a few second. your help is much appreciated.

Help us help. What model laptop? What operating system (XP or Vista). Do you have software to play the music CD or DVD? Do you have all the drivers installed? Obviously the drive works because you used it to install the operating system, right?

Cd-rom can't read music cd's?

Well, let me just say I am new to linux in general and even more new to Arch linux. I did mange my way through the install of Arch Linux with the help of someone. I learned alot from that experience, but since I am still new there are still a few things I bump into here and there that give me problems.
My problem is my cd-rom does not read music cd's of any kind. Wether they are burned or original discs. It does read game discs and data discs just fine though. I installed my setup from a base-cd install and added the packages I wanted. I went with KDE as my gui and have minimal other packages installed. I have kdebase, kdeadmin, kdeutils, kdemultimedia and kdenetwork. I also have xmms installed because I thought that the kde cd-player just wasn't working right.
Well, this is the error I get...
[anvildemon@speedphreak anvildemon]$ mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdroms/cdrom0,
or too many mounted file systems
[anvildemon@speedphreak anvildemon]$
Like I said, this only happens with music cd's. All my game cd's and data cd's are read without a problem. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much sarah31, I am now jamming out to some Blind Guardian.
I do have another small problem though. I was reading through alot of the forums here and I was able to get my usb keyboard and mouse working without using my PS/2 adapters.
The problem is I do not have use of my scroll wheel on my mouse. I did add the Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" to my xfree86 config file but it's still a no go for me. I use a Logitech Cordless Duo usb keyboard and mouse. Here is the section of my xf86config file for my mouse to see if any options are wrong.
Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier and driver
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "Auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
# Mouse-speed setting for PS/2 mouse.
Thanks for the help sarah31.

Out of the blue! clicking HD, "can't read disk"

I've got a 4th gen. click wheel.
I didn't drop it, I didn't sit on it, I didn't give it a bath...
I just plugged it in this morning, and out of the freakin blue:
the first sign was that it wasn't showing up in itunes.
The second was that when I tried to quit itunes, the whole computer froze.
The third was when I finally unplugged the iPod, the harddrive was clicking HARD.
It had reset by itself and was on the Apple logo, which soon became that dreaded crosseyed ipod with "apple.com/support" on it. Good. God. So I reset it again and again and at one point it seemed to be back to normal.
But then I had to leave, and when I came back, the problem had started again. It was resetting itself over and over, I reset it and brought it into disk mode, and now it won't come out or disk mode!
And now, when I plug it into the computer, I get a friendly little "cannot read disk" message.
... Any suggestions?

I'm having a similar problem with one of our media drives.
my backup just died. really, really can't afford do lose this data...and have 500GB.
any suggestions? other than reformatting? here's the error that i've gotten:
Verifying volume Media Server
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Invalid B-tree node size
The volume Media Server needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
tried disk repair, and tried tech tool pro 4. no success.
I just need to copy the data off...and then i can throw the darn drive in the trash. Help ASAP! please!

Cd rom can't read the installation

i just brought a creative MuVo V200. when i put in the installation cd, the cd dri've cannot read. i have check with acer and the dri've is fine. there is no pop- ups or anything when i double click on the disc. there is no autoplay.

elessar87,
Hmm. Have you try the CD on another computer? What OS are you using now? If your using Windows ME/2000/XP then there's no need to install from the CD for the driver and MediaSource application can be downloaded from the website for install.

Can't read disk

For some reason, my OSX has stopped reading the CD/DVDs I insert. Although, they are clearly visible in "Disk Utility," they will not come up on the desktop and I can't do anything with them.

Check what the Finder is set to show on the desktop in the General section of its preferences, which are accessible from the Finder menu.

IPhoto can't read disk

Hi,
I'm using iPhoto '08 7.1.3 with a Sony DSC-H2 digital camera and a Digital Concepts MemoryStick card reader.
All was working fine until my imac wouldn't recognize my memorystick (received message that the "disk you inserted was not readable by this computer"). When i was in iPhoto it wouldn't register at all, i only was even able to get that message by pulling the memorystick out of the card reader and reinserting it.
after some experimenting, i got it to work by plugging the memorystick card reader directly into the port at the back of the imac instead of using a cable to connect the memorystick card reader to the imac. no problems for several months.
today, i received the same message. i could see the pictures just fine on my camera. finally i put the memorystick back in the camera and hten used the cable to connect the camera directly to the imac (therfore not using the card reader at all), and was able to import the pictures that way.
do you have any ideas what is causing this problem? if my card is "going bad" then why can i use it in my camera? could it be the card reader? i am out of ideas for future fixes and now feel it is going to not work in the future. i am happy to buy new card reader or memory stick but don't want to waste money either if it is something in the iphoto software someone may be familiar with.
thanks!
Jen

My best guess is the card reader from what you have described
Once you import the photos you may want to try using the camera to format your MS just to be sure that it is not a MS format problem
BTW - I just found a SanDisk Memory Stick USB reader at Radio Shack for $9.95 - small, compact (fits in my spare battery pocket with my spare batteries in my Sony Camera bag

My CDROM can`t read some dvd after changing windows

hi,i have hp probook 450 g1 , i had windows 8.1 but i had some problems so changed my windows and install windows 8.1.1 i install all of my drivers but after i change my windows the CDROM can`t read some DVDs specially DVD9 and the sound of CDROM is changed and it`s strange for such this DVD that it can`t read it reads them some times , but most of the time can`t read , it make me crazy , please help me

Hi Yolanda,
the error message is inside a popup: (French trnaslation) "Windows media Player encountered an error and will close." I have the choice beetween "CLOSE" and "HELP ON THE WEB".
Of course the "help" is totally useless....
I don't see any troublshooter related to "media player". The only troubleshooter where I can choose Media player is for the "compatibility mode", so it's not helpful. On the "audio and devices" troubleshooter I see "read
a DVD with Windows Media Player", but that's not my case.
I've already done the last step. I copy the MP3 from my second computer to the "problematic" one, and I can't read my file. But, on the second computer, i can read this MP3 so the issue is ONLY when I try to read this file with my Windows session.
(in the same computer, with the administrator session, I can read all the files).
To put it in a nutshell:
on computer A logged as CEDRIC i can not read the mp3 called SUPERSONG (it's an example lol)
on computer A logged as administrator, I can read the SUPERSONG
on computer B logged as CEDRIC (other local account but same name) I can read the SUPERSONG mp3 that is present in the music Library (that is not the same file, but it's a file with the same name, and of crouse this is the same song). (all my MP3 are copied
from computer A to computer B in case of failure on one of the computers)
on computer A logged as CEDRIC, if I do a
\\computerB\c$\...\SUPERSONG I can not read it.
I know this is complicated to explain, but if I ask to the Microsoft community that is because I don't know what to do ;) ;) ;)

Can't open disk label package

Hi,
i just tried to make a boot DVD for Solaris 9 9/05 from a image file (.iso)
the iso file size is about 4.383GB.
tried with the nero express with the option copy image to disk.
succefully burnt the details, even the expected .flar file exists in the burnt DVD.
But when i tried in the SUN machine E2900, i got the following error,
Rebooting with command: boot cdrom
ERROR: disk-label do_read: Short disk read
Can't open disk label package
ERROR: Can't open boot-device
- I guess the fashion in which we are writing an image file to the DVD matters. if somebody faced the same situation, please do suggest me how to proceed ?
thank you very much
