HT1364 Windows 8 & Seagate GoFlex Home, anybody had problems ?

Hi,
     trying to set up a NAS for AV amp to access iTunes directly without using the PC, stuggling tho' any tips/ideas ... thanks in advance

Found the problem.  I had to reset the IP address for the NAS (GoflexHome) in my computer's firewall.  Connection problems seem to always trace to the firewall.  Should have looked there first,

  • Has anybody had problems upgrading MBP 13inch (2010) to 8Gb RAM?

    Hi Folks,
    I'm new to the Apple Support Communities.  I've searched the discussions on this issue but couldn't find something exactly the same. I installed two 4Gb, PC3-8500 DDR3-1066MHz memory sticks in my MacBook Pro 13 inch (2010 model), but it wouldn't boot up.  I then re-installed one of my old stock 2Gb sticks and the MacBook Pro booted and showed 6Gb memory under System Profiler.  The memory runs fine and I've checked the RAM using Rember and it passes all the tests.  I've had no freezes or other weird behaviour on the MBP with the 6Gb configuration but I just can't get it to boot with both 4Gb sticks installed.  Does anybody know what's going on here?
    Thanks!

    I have exactly the same problem like you, just got my new 8gb (4gbx2) DDR3-1067Mhz, PC3-8500 from Vgen and I can't use both ram in my mid 2010 mackbook pro. I've checked the requirements before buying the ram with apple support and bought the ram as suggested by apple support regarding ram upgrading (I also read some posts saying that some people who upgrade the ram with 4GBx2 PC3-10600 instead of PC3-8500 had problem to boot but it boots fine if they combine 1 PC3-8500 + 1 PC3-10600). funny and wierd thing is both new ram are working fine because I tried to combine each new ram + 1 stock ram and they were installed fine, clockspeed is correct which is PC3-8500..I contacted apple store and they ask me to do the reset parameter ( Hold 'Option' + Command + P + R then boot, keep holding until you heard 'dong' sound twice and then release) but still not working either.
    Then I also try to install only 1 single ram, both old stock ram were booting but both new ram won't boot...the only working method is to install 1 stock ram + 1 new ram (total only 6 GB of Ram)...this is really frustrating and it's ******* me off because I have followed instruction and bought the exact ram as required and suggested by apple and it's not working....**** it....how can thing like this happen..geez...Please somebody from apple explain this and give us solution...
    Note : since bought items are not refundable so I try to call the store where I bought the new ram and had them agree to replace 1 pcs 4GB PC3-8500 ram with PC3-10600 ram and will see if it works with 2 different clockspeed Ram installed in my MBP Mid 2010 and will post the result again later after.
    I'm using MBP 13" With Lion OSX 10.7.1 and 6 GB RAM (Apple, I want my other 2 GB Ram back)

  • Has anybody had problems with DVD's burnt with Optiarc drive

    I am burning movie DVD's through iDVD. The movie formats are initially QT with PCM sound encoding. They seem to work well on an old Samsung DVD player, but stutter on a brand new Samsung computer. I do understand it could be a problem with the newer computer, but I would like to hear if anyone else has had any problems so I can see if the problem is more widespread.
    OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5630A:
    Late 2007 20 inch Alloy iMac
    Model: OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5630A
    Revision: 1AHM
    Serial Number:
    Detachable Drive: No
    Protocol: ATAPI
    Unit Number: 0
    Socket Type: Internal
    Low Power Polling: Yes
    Any help appreciated
    Cheers

    I too am having trouble playing DVDs burned with my Optiarc drive. Sorry I don't have the solution, but I can add a data point to the story about problems with DVDs burned with Optiarc.
    My current hardware: mid-2007 24" iMac, built-in Optiarc DVD RW AD-5630A with firmware 1AHM / MMC-3.
    My scenario: after making home movies with iMovie '08 and iDVD '08, I either burn to DVD (TDK 16x DVD-R 4.7 GB) straight from iDVD or I save as disc image from iDVD and then burn the disc image from Toast 9. In either scenario, I can play the DVD on my iMac or any other Mac or Windows computer. However, it will not play on my Xbox (original Xbox, not the 360) because it freezes when trying to mount (sometimes the Xbox will not recognize the disc as a DVD, and sometimes it will begin mounting the disc and then freeze before displaying the title menu).
    Before I bought my new iMac, I had the same workflow on an older 2003 17" G4 iMac that has a Sony DVD burner, and those discs play fine on all DVD players including my Xbox. To test the hypothesis that something happened to my Xbox around the time that I upgraded to my mid-2007 24" iMac, I burned several DVDs using my older iMac, and they continue to mount and play fine on the Xbox. On both my older and newer iMac, I have Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installed, same version of Toast 9, and I burn at the slowest speed (2x) on both. So it seems that the problem can be isolated to the Optiarc DVD burner, but I'm not sure if there are other factors at play here.
    I searched the Optiarc site (www.sonynec-optiarc.com) but could not find a firmware update for the AD-5630A. However, I did find this site via Google:
    Liggy's and Dee's modified NEC and Optiarc firmwares
    http://liggydee.cdfreaks.com/page/en/Optiarc-AD-5630A/
    Because I was not sure about the site's reputation or validity of the firmware, I have not tried it yet.

  • Has anybody had problems after installing updates recently?

    Hello,
    I installed some updates about an hour ago on my MacbookPro, and now it is unable to start up. I do remember that I got a message saying "was unable to install ... and ..." before I restarted, but honestly, I didn't pay that much attention to it because I didn't think I'd get such huge problems from installing an update, and I don't remember what exactly was getting installed, or what two things were listed in the error message.
    I think my MacbookPro is in pretty bad shape, because before it can even display the login screen, my screen goes gray and there's a message saying "you need to restart your computer, press the power button down for a few seconds" in several languages. And when I do restart, it takes me back to the same screen. I'm guessing that one of the components that were supposed to be installed didn't get installed properly and that's what's causing this.
    I'm wondering if this has happened to anybody else. The first thing that came to my mind was to pop the Leopard installation disk in and see if I can reinstall everything again, but I'm on vacation right and I don't have the disk on me. Are there any known workarounds for something like this?
    To give some background info, I use Leopard and I actually reinstalled the operating system (while preserving the non-system files) exactly a week ago, so I am certain that there were no files corrupted, at least on my part.
    Thanks,
    Yuri

    Hi again Yuri,
    Sorry that didn't help ferret out the issue. If a trip to the Apple store isn't too inconvenient, it might be worth it (and it's free!). I can give some more thoughts if you have the time and inclination to try to solve the problem yourself.
    By the way, what do you mean when you say that your computer automatically reboots? It is making it through the booting process? Are you doing anything specific when it reboots? Will it do this even if you just leave it alone?
    Here are some troubleshooting suggestions:
    1. Kernel panics can be caused by both software and hardware problems, but the hardware ones are pretty easy to test. You could try unplugging everything you have attached to your computer (assuming you have an Apple keyboard and mouse, those can stay plugged in) and rebooting to see if the problem persists. If you have two RAM sticks in your machine, you could try swapping the bays they're in, and you could also try the Apple Hardware Test if you still have the original disk that came with your machine. (Let me know if any of this doesn't make sense.) My suspicion from your description of how it started is that this is a software problem, but you never know.
    2. If none of that works, it probably is software-related. To try to figure out what might be causing the problem (I'm assuming here that your spontaneous reboots are happening after your system is fully booted), reboot your computer normally (to cause a KP so that we have an exact time frame), and then when it forces you to reboot, do so in Safe Mode. You can then access your log files (in the Console Program, under Applications > Utilities) and look for the section called "LOG FILES"—which you may have to click "Show Log List" to see—and select "PanicReporter." If you can paste that information in this thread before your computer crashes again, that would probably be very helpful in diagnosing the problematic software. (If it's quicker, you can e-mail a copy of that log file by selecting it in Console and going to File > Mail.) This file should tell us exactly what the computer was doing before the kernel panic, and if we know that, we might just know how to get around it.
    If these solutions don't work, a lot of the troubleshooting procedures can be complicated if it's a software problem and if you're unfamiliar with the UNIX command-line environment. So if you're so inclined, it might be easier to just take the patient in! If you don't want to or can't, I'd be happy to help you further.
    Good luck!

  • Yahoo mail, anybody had problems since the last update

    On iMac, since last 10.7.3 update, (Yahoo) mail keeps asking me to log in to get mail. This does not work. The only way I can get mail, is to log out of Yahoo account and log back in again, then mail works, for a few hours then back again with the log in sign.
    This happened straight away after updating the Mac to 10.7.3.
    Anybody else using Yahoo have a problem with loosing log in.

    Can you install any program? If so can you install the MS cleanup utility?

    If you can't install it then I'll need a email that I can send the exe to. I just did this for someone else so don't worry.

  • Has anybody had problems with mavericks working with adobe cs4?

    I just found out that my cs4 adobe suite is not compatible with the nifty upgrade to Yosemite.
    I don't know how to un-do it and I don't know if it would be any better if I updated again to mavericks?
    Anybody? Help?

    I am running Adobe CS3 with Yosemite, so any problem you are experiencing is not an OS compatibility issue.
    What happens when you try to open an app like Photoshop CS4?

  • Has anybody had problems with the global settings panel not working?

    I am on PC, Vista 64bit.  updated to the new flash player and now flash player will not allow me to chage anything in the global settings panel.  I need to allow third party content for editing wix sites and I cannot change any of the settings.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled many times and nothing has helped.
    My adobe reader also crashed and now will not load after uninstall.  Very frustrating!  Everythign worked fine before the update.
    Any ideas?

    To allow Flash Player settings, close all browser windows, then open Windows Explorer and type %APPDATA%\Adobe in the address bar. Delete the 'Flash Player' folder in there.  Do the same in %APPDATA%\Macromedia
    Regarding Adobe Reader, please post in that forum.

  • Did anybody had problems with the update of logic pro x to the version 10.0.1? In my app store says that "an error has ocurred".

    Hi, I have just updated to logic 10.0.1 version that has some bug fixes.
    Unfortunately my app store keeps saying that an error ocurred because I left my logic open during the update process.
    How can I reinstal this update?

    Quit Logic and Quit the Mac App Store App
    Restart your Mac
    Now try again.
    If that doesn't work, Quit Logic Pro X.. delete the Logic Pro X app from the applications folder and downlada and install Logic Pro X again using the Purchased Tab in the Mac App Store App.

    Has any one else had problems with windows adapter?
    Thanks

  • Time Machine - Seagate GoFlex

    Hi
    I have been using a Seagate GoFlex Home drive connected to my wireless router as my Time Machine backup drive.
    It has stopped working and i get a message saying,
    "The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features.
    Open Time Machine preferences to select a different backup disk."
    Is this because of Lion, or a different reason.
    Please help
    Ben

    This seems to be related to the new Mac OS X upgrade, Lion.
    I found the following post from Seagate in their Knowledge Base:
    http://seagate.custkb.com/seagate/crm/selfservice/search.jsp?page=1&NewLang=en&D ocId=219971
    I subscribed to the article in case there are any updates to this issue.

  • Has anybody had the following error while trying to download iTunes 10.5? There is a problem with Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.

    Has anybody had the following error while trying to download iTunes 10.5? There is a problem with Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.

    Go to "control panel" then "add or remove programs".  Highlight "Apple software update"  Choose "change" click "Repair"  This should do the trick.  Then download and install iTunes 10.5 again.

  • I want to start my Time Machine. I bought a Goflex Home which says it is compatible with my iMac but it refuses to download an update of the software. This means the Time Machine will not operate. What is the problem?

    I want to start Time Machine. I bought a Goflex Home netwrork storage system, which says it is compatible with Imac. Each time I go online to try to get any updates, it always comes back saying Error. In other words, I can't start Time Machine because I can't get any software updates. Anyone else experiencing problems with Seagate software updates?

    If you want to use Time Machine the Seagate software is unnecessary. The drive is probably ntfs format which is not for the Mac.
    Manually preparing a new disk for Time Machine
    If you want to erase a disk before using it with Time Machine, follow these steps:
    Open Disk Utility (located in the Utilities folder).
    Connect the disk if it isn't already attached.
    In the left side of the Disk Utility window, select the disk you want to use with Time Machine.
    Optional: If you want to partition the disk, click the Partition tab and select a layout. Make sure "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" is selected in the Format menu for the partition that will be used for backups. Click Apply.
    Click the Erase tab.
    Optional: If you want to securely erase the disk, click Security Options to configure, then click OK.
    Click Erase.
    After erasing, open Time Machine preferences in System Preferences and configure as described in the section above.
