Ideacentre k450 usb 3.0 driver

Hello
I have installed windows 7 on this computer.
However, the usb 3.0 drivers that you have uploaded on your website doesnt work.
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS035291
When trying to install it, it says the following error message:
"this system does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software"

  • IdeaCentre K450 Hot-swappa​ble drive specs

    I have a new IdeaCentre K450 - 57314032 - Black. It has a hot-swappable drive bay in front but the users manual does not give any specifications on what kind of drive to use. I usually use a portable external USB HDD for backup, but a swappable drive seems like it might be a better solution--in the range of 500GB to 1TB.
    Can you give me any advice on what type of drive would fit? Is it a 3.5" x 1/3 height form factor? All the accessories in the Lenovo store seem to be for the Think-series--would any of them work?

    Hi,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I’m sorry to hear that the specifications are not available online, but below is the link for K450 Datasheet for the information about the Hot-swappable drive and a link to the post customers have tried different type of HDD and succeeded in hot swapping with the computer.

  • K450 USB Ports and Card Readers not working

    When I plug in devices to my K450 ideacentre desktop USB ports, they are not recognized.  The same for a couple of memory cards I have tried in the card reader.  These are all working fine when put in other computers.  The card reader and USB ports do work when I insert a multi card reader into the USB port or a multi USB port into the USB port (and then use either of those to read the same external hard drive or memory cards that don't show up when installed directly).  Any idea what this could be?  I'm sure it's something simple that I'm missing but I can't figure it out.  I'm running Windows 8.  Thanks for any help!

    I wanted to add to this...I did plug in a CF card the other day and that was recognized.  I then tried my external hard drive directly again in a front USB port and it worked for a while (an hour or so).  Then it suddenly was not there anymore as if I'd ejected it even though I didn't.  Tried to put it back in and nothing.  This tells me it may be a hardware problem since it "recognized" it for a bit.  It's very frustrating.

  • How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility

    How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility?
    Last night i was using my external hard drive, for some reason the folder just closed and i couldn't find it on my desktop.
    After googling solutions, i found it in the disk utilities, i clicked on the 'repair' button many times, but it said the 'error...' message.
    So i ejected it to try again, now when i connect the USB external hard drive it doesn't show up on my desktop or disk utilities.
    I really just want to either repair or recover the data on it because it literally has everything (documents, work files, photos etc) on it,
    I downloaded an application to recover my files but it needs the USB to at least show up.recognise it which mine doesn't.
    I know i should've backed it up on another USB, this definitely teaches me for next time to back up all my files.
    Are the files lost forever or can i recover them by going to a shop or using a software?

    Thank you for responding.
    This might sound stupid since i'm not really knowledgeable with Macs,
    but since all my files were moved from my mac computer to the external hard drive,
    is it possible to recover those files through my Mac - like recovering deleted files?

  • USB external Super Drive not recognized by iMac

    Bought a new USB external Super Drive a few days ago (from Apple shop).
    Plugged into my iMac 21.5", late 2013, and the iMac does not seem to want to recognise it.
    Checked Finder and necessary boxes ticked up to show on Desktop, also does not show through remote devices.
    Any help would be appreciated. Not a techie and 90 miles from my Apple shop.Not even sure I have filled the dam request in correctly (sorry).

    <Subject Edited by Host>

    Oddjob, the optical drive itself never shows up on the desktop,. What happens when you insert a disc? If a disc doesn't show up first check your connection. Try resetting the SMC Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support and PRAM How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support
    There's also the possibility that the drive is bad.

  • ESATA/USB Secure Hard Drive is not recongized

    Hi all,
    I got this cool external hard drive in my work and it have been workin great... until now.
    I had it connected to my computer and then my wife turn that computer into hibernation (ohh no), and since that I can't get my computer (any computer) to recongize it. When I connect it I enter my pin and the LED turns green (static) but the computer do not recognize it, it does not even say "found new hardware" when connecting it to a computer (with or without entering pin)
    Please help, can I recover my data?
    Best regards
    Per

    Hi,
    I had the same problem a few weeks appart with two 500GB eSATA/USB Secure Hard Drives. I had safely disconnected the drive but I only physically disconnected it hours later.
    After that, the disk wasn't recognized on any computer I tried it with (Windows or Linux, eSata or USB). After disconnecting the data cable, the led stayed green forever (usually it turns red a few seconds later).
    I was able to make it work again by performing a complete reset (but of course everything was erased and I had to re-partition the drive).
    Fortunately these drives are used for backups so I didn't lose any data. But it is worrying to know that we can't rely on it so much... It would be great to come up with a upgrade that would make the disk more robust for that kind of problems. I didn't find anything for this product on Lenovo's support website...
    Best regards,
    Nathalie

  • Can I use USB external DVD Drive to boot up my G4?

    My G4 (PCI Graphics) internal drive DVD-ROM is not working, its dead. I want to replace it with an External USB or Firewire Lacie DVD Drive.
    According to Apple document http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58606, my computer cant boot up from Firewire devices. I think that means, I wont be able reinstall my Mac OS or install future systems or start my DiskWarrior from the CD. Using a external Firewire DVD Drive. Let me know if I am wrong?
    Can I use a USB external DVD Drive to boot up?
    G4 (PCI Graphics) 400 mhz, 488Mb Memory, 50GB, 9.2.2 & 10.3.9. USB 1.0 & Firewire 400 Ports
    G4 (PCI Graphics)   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Hi, Harold -
    Bad news - your G4 (PCI) model can not boot to either a firewire drive nor to a USB drive.
    Although the G4 (PCI) models do have native firewire, they (and their cousins the B&W G3) are specifically exempted from firewire booting; there is no workaround for this -
    Article #58606 - FireWire Booting
    Relatedly, a G4 (PCI) machine can be the Host machine in a Firewire Target Disk Mode setup, but can not be the Target machine.
    Article #58583 - Firewire Target Disk Mode
    USB booting was introduced first on the G4 (AGP) model, and is not available on earlier Mac models -
    Article #58430 - USB Info and Benefits of Dual-Channel USB
    The only external drive your G4 (PCI) can be booted to is a SCSI drive - but that requires that the machine have an appropriate SCSI PCI card installed.
    Replacing the internal optical drive might be the best choice, particularly for ease of maintenance and OS installing in the future.

  • Can anyone recommend a portable USB 3.0 drive with hardware encryption, compatible with OSX and Windows 7.  I need it for my MacBook Pro 13", 2012, running Mountain Lion

    Can anyone recommend a portable USB 3.0 drive with hardware encryption, compatible with OSX Mountain Lion and Windows 7.  I need it for my MacBook Pro 13”, 2012, running Mountain Lion & Windows 7 Ultimate - BootCamp.  I’ve heard that the Buffalo MiniStation Encryption does not work with OSX, is that true..?  I'd like it to work with both operating systems, using the built in hardware encryption.  Thanks

  • Can't rename a Canvio 2TB USB 3.0 drive

    Hi, I've just got 2 Canvio 2TB USB 3.0 drives but couldn't rename either drive in Windows 7's explorer nor Mac OS X's Finder (with the Mac NTFS driver installed). Tho the new name is shown from the drive's "properties" but the name appear in Explorer is still the default "Toshiba Canvio Hard Drive". This is inconvient when I have 2 drives mounted but can't tell which one is which.

    I always wipe new external drives clean.
    If you have an autorun.inf file in the root, then ljaygould is probably right. It's this line that needs to change.
       label=Toshiba Canvio Hard Drive
    Microsoft recommends you disable autorun altogether. Too much malware uses it.

  • Can no longer access USB external hard drive

    Hi - I am running OS X 10.8.4 on my iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009), and have been using a La Cie USB  external hard drive for several years for my Time Machine backups without issues.  All of a sudden yesterday, the external hard drive disappeared from Finder and my Desktop,  and as a result, no more Time Machine backups  I rebooted both the external hard drive and iMac several times  and changed the USB cable but with no success.  Disk Utility and Time Machine cannot see the external hard drive but it does appear under System Information => USB (see below).  I connected it to my Windows 8 laptop. The Windows laptop can see the external hard drive under Disk Management as an uninitialized disk.  But I will not allow me to initialize it and therefore cannot acces it.

    Any help to restore the external hard drive would be appreciated.
    Ron

    Thank you for your quick response.  Disk Utility does not see the hard drive.  Windows 8 does see it under Device Manager and says that it is working propoerly but it will not allow me to initialize it.   As indicated  to Lin Davis,  I'll buy a new external hard drive.

  • Where can I get the driver for my HP DE8A4L external USB CD/DVD drive?

    Where can I get the driver for my HP DE8A4L external USB CD/DVD drive? 
    On the label it says, Model HSTNN-PD06-91
    and
    HP PN: 518819-001 Rev.B
    I've had my Mini 110-1000 running our music system for a couple of years, no complaints.  When I wanted a CD/DVD drive, I purchased a DE8A4L external USB drive directly from HP.  It didn't come with a driver disc.  When I plug it in, the USB subsystem does not enable it.  Device Manager shows a yellow exclamation point, saying, "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware..."   It is running Windows XP Home Edition SP3.
    What gives with this device?

    Following up on tactic 2) above, I upgraded the BIOS from version F07 to the latest version available on the HP download site, version F19.  This went well, but unfortunately the system still does not recognize the device.
    When I try to Device Manager, and select the DE8A4L DVD device, and try "search for a device driver", it says it cannot find a better match for the driver already installed.
    This Mini 110-1000 only came with 1 Gb RAM, and Windows XP Home.   Is one of these a critical limitation for running an external USB DVD drive?

  • Seagate Backup Plus Slim External USB 3 Hard Drive Not Working with Mac Pro

    Hi, I have just purchased a brand new Mac Pro.  I have three 2 TB Seagate Backup Plus Slim External USB 3 hard drives that just don't jive with the new Mac Pro's.  When the drive is connected, I cannot access the drive, read/write or even format.  Finder completely locks up and the drive cannot even be force ejected. When I try to format, Disk Utility either spits out an error that the drive cannot be read, or simply locks up.  This happens regardless of the OS on the Mac Pro.  I am currently running 10.10.2
    I have ruled out an issues with the drives, as I have tested all of them on a variety of systems and OS's, including Power Mac, Mac Book Pro, PC, OS 10.7, 10.8, 10.9 as well as on Windows.  I have tried formatting in every file system including Mac OS Extended, Mac OS Extended (Journaled), NTFS and exFAT.  ALL other systems have no issues with the drives. Apple has replaced my Mac Pro with a brand new one and the drives still behave the same way.  Furthermore, I have tested the drives on three other Mac Pro's at work and they all reject the drives. So, on their own, there is nothing wrong with the Mac Pro, or the drives. However, the configuration of them together is wreaking havoc.
    I have contacted Seagate, and this was their response:
    The most recent version of the Backup Plus drives use the USB Attached SCSI (UAS) standard to increase transfer rates.  It's possible that the drivers being used currently on your Mac Pro are having issues using this feature with the standard USB 3.0 drivers installed.  I would recommend contacting Apple to check for any driver updates or see if they any suggestions for issues involving drives using UAS.
    I have also started a case with Apple Support (Case # 755934373) and am waiting to hear back regarding Seagate's response.  I've spent DAYS trying to troubleshoot this and am now at a complete loss.  If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears (or eyes in this case).
    Thanks!

    Hi danielsh6,
    I recently bought the new Lacie Thunderbolt 2 D2 3TB and I had the same problem as you, i have a macbook pro early 2011, those support thunderbolt but many times there is a bug that doesn't let you connect any thunderbolt drives to your computer. The solution I found was installing this update:
    Thunderbolt Firmware Update v1.0
    Before doing this I would recommend you updating to mountain lion (not yosemite yet as there is still some glitches and more on preview's macbook pro's).
    Hope this helped!
