IMac intel core, 10.6.8 - isn't mounting my partioned iomega drive. How do i get it to mount and stay mounted?

iMac intel core, 10.6.8 - isn't mounting my partitioned iomega drive. It was mounting one of the partitions, but not the other one for a while. Then they both stopped showing up. I can not select the drive in Time Machine. I verified and repaired the iMac hard drive with Disk Utility. Then tried to verify and repair iomega drive in Disk Utility. It appears briefly but then disappears. One partition might be bad, what do i do? Then name of the partition changed to something like disk1:3 when it was called MAC. I want to see what's on it and ideally continue to use it as our backup in Time Machine. How do I get it to mount and stay mounted?

The usage figure reported by the activity monitor is likely to include only the core progam, the APIs that are being called and space for variables. FCP moves huge amounts of data around the system but, in general, I would imagine these are handled by the OS so would not (except maybe momentarily) be included in the acitivity monitor total.
If you have very little memory and it "runs out" so to speak, the OS will start swapping files on and off the disc which will slow the system down to a crawl if you have a standard hard drive. So with 16GB you have loads of room for the data transfers to take place quickly and efficiently. So, I would say you had not wasted your money! A very wise investment.

Imac,Intel Core i7 on OS 10.9.3 maintenance recommendations

What are the maintenance recommendations for an Imac,Intel Core i7 on OS 10.9.3 .

Kappy's Personal Suggestions About Mac Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utility is: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior for defragmentation of older drives, disk repair, disk scans, formatting, partitioning, disk copy, and benchmarking.
Four outstanding sources of information on Mac maintenance are:
1. OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney.
2. Mac maintenance Quick Assist
3. Maintaining Mac OS X
4. Mac Maintenance Guide
Periodic Maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) See Mac OS X- About background maintenance tasks. If you are running Leopard or later these tasks are run automatically, so there is no need to use any third-party software to force running these tasks.
If you are using a pre-Leopard version of OS X, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced after Tiger. (These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion and should not be installed.)
Defragmentation
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive except when trying to install Boot Camp on a fragmented drive. Malware Protection
As for malware protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. Starting with Lion, Apple has included built-in malware protection that is automatically updated as necessary. To assure proper protection, update your system software when Apple releases new OS X updates for your computer.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection:
1. Mac Malware Guide.
2. Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware
3. Macintosh Virus Guide
For general anti-virus protection I recommend only using ClamXav, but it is not necessary if you are keeping your computer's operating system software up to date. You should avoid any other third-party software advertised as providing anti-malware/virus protection. They are not required and could cause the performance of your computer to drop.
Cache Clearing
I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, Mountain Lion Cache Cleaner 7.0.9, Maintenance 1.6.8, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache files can cause slowness, kernel panics, and other issues. Although this is not a frequent nor a recurring problem, when it does happen there are tools such as those above to fix the problem.
If you are using Snow Leopard or earlier, then for emergency cleaning install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. (AppleJack works with Snow Leopard or earlier.)
Installing System Updates or Upgrades
Repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand.
Update your backups in case an update goes bad.
Backup and Restore
Having a backup and restore strategy is one of the most important things you can do to maintain your computer. Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. You can never have too many backups. Don't rely on just one. Make several using different backup utilities. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
     1. Carbon Copy Cloner
     2. Get Backup
     3. Deja Vu
     4. SuperDuper!
     5. Synk Pro
     6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance and backup and restore.
Always have a current backup before performing any system updates or upgrades.
Final Suggestions
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity or 20 GBs, whichever is greater, as free space. Avoid installing utilities that rely on Haxies, SIMBL, or that alter the OS appearance, add features you will rarely if ever need, etc. The more extras you install the greater the probability of having problems. If you install software be sure you know how to uninstall it. Avoid installing multiple new software at the same time. Install one at a time and use it for a while to be sure it's compatible.

Printing HI Res (200 MB) w. 27" iMac, Intel Core i7 Chip, 8 Meg, Late 2009 Machine w. LR

I work in 4x5 format photography (or 5x4 for your Europeans) and cannot print a 200MB image I scanned and imported and modified in Lightroom (i.e., can't print or even export from Lightroom). I have a 27" iMac, Intel Core i7 Chip, 8 Meg, Late 2009 Machine w. LR so I thought all I needed to to was simply upgradememory. But I simply opened another 250MG scanned file of the same image (higher res settings than even 200MB) and used Apple's Preview and it printed fine, so it is not a iMac machine/memeory problem I don't think... Does anyone know what I should do? Buying another 8 Meg core memory obvioulsy isn't the immediate problem (that would help with speed and rendering but us View Camera people are not about speed!). Something is wrong with Lightroom, or most probably, it is a "operator" (that would be me, as in "pilot error" ;-) Is there some typical Adobe-hidden Harry Potter button I need to push (someday Adobe will learn how to design software like Apple does which is easy and obvious to use....).

OK...so "Under Print">"Print Job" I de-selected "Draft Mode Printing," "Print Resulution," "Print Sharpening," "16 Bit Output" and it seems to allow the "native" settings take over...it took a bit of time but out popped a print! Is there something else I should be doing?

How do I use a Verizon PC Wireless card with my iMAC Intel Core desktop?

Help! Bought a Kyocera KPC650 Wireless PC Card for Verizon wireless internet. Works fine w/ laptop because it has a slot. How do I configure my iMAC desktop to accept this card? Is there an external USB adapter? Or do I have to get one installed internally? Which adapter works with OX 10.4?
I've seen the Quatech U132 online. Will that work? Its $192!! As is the Sewell adapter too. ($209)
Any ideas? I want to get off SBCYahoo DSL and their router because our DSL line is damaged in our complex and no one is fixing it!
Thanks in advance.

Updates from Mountain Lion 10.8.3 to 10.8.4 on my iMac Intel Core i7 are giving me problems.

I recently updated my Mountain Lion 10.8.3 to 10.8.4 on my iMac Intel Core i7. Now I am experiencing all sorts of problems.
1. It won't recognize my phone: Under the last OS I used to just plug in my phone and it would automatically recognize it and give me a desk icon. Now, nothing. I am forced to use bluetooth, which is so time consuming, to off load my photos. I even tried lauching iPhoto first and then plugging in my smart phone, and it would not recognize it.
2. Clicking on files or folders on the desktop acts as if I have the shift or command key engaged and highlights all the ones I clicked on, instead of just releasing the last file I clicked on when I click on the next file.
3. My mouse keeps disappearing all of a sudden. So I have to keep moving my mouse around until the cursor finally becomes visable.
4. Some applications, when clicked on in the dock, open a new window as if the computer has lost the path as where to find the original except I don't get an error message saying the alias needs to be fixed. It just opens Applications.
These are the most annoying things that are happening since I have upgraded my iMac. Number 1 is the most important thing now as my videos are taking hours to off load.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Eric... I restarted my iMac in Safe Mode. It gave me the option of Me or Guest. I chose Me. It started up. I ran Disk Utility and I noticed that the repairs of permissions were focused on my scanner and printer. Nothing else. Restarted. Noticed that the mouse issue is fixed. Yay! Folder issue is fixed. Yay! Application/path finding also seems to be back to normal. Yay!
My Smartphone will still not mount. Disk Utility did not recognize the phone. Going into About This Mac showed me that it can recognize the phone via Bluetooth. Under About This Mac>Hardware>USB, it also sees the phone. So why is it not mounting like before? Or what is the next step? I read those articles you attached in your initial response.

20" iMac Intel Core 2 Duo Display problems.

It was hard trying to sum up my problem for the thread title... so let me try and describe what I am experiencing a bit more clearly.
I have recently acquired a 20" iMac Intel Core 2 Duo,2 GHz(aluminum body black plastic back)-with display issues...
The problem is basically that there appears to be no happy middle ground in regards to contrast- it is either WAY too white or WAY too black... I would have to say it is more of an issue with CONTRAST than brightness, it appears that nothing I can do in calibrating the screen really matters.
I have calibrated displays before and never had this sort of issue. It is pretty bad (for example): a royal blue appears as black or gray mac highlight color choice appears as black.... white and medium grays appear indistinguishable.
all this in addition to the fact that there appears to be a gradient to the screen when you display a solid color neutral back ground, not too mention that it is VERY hard to look at this screen for very long and for what I do( 3D model making and texture creation) the display is pretty useless.
I have read about similar issues with this model's screen at other sites, but most of the threads ended without being resolved and were more than a year old.
This machine belonged to my in-laws and according to them, it always looked this way and when they took to back to the Apple store few weeks after purchasing it( brand new), they were told there was "nothing wrong with the display, it's supposed to look that way"... the machine was hardly used(just for iChating with our infant daughters), so I don't really think it is an issue with age or anything.
Now here is the really weird part:
I just upgraded the OS from 10.4 to 10.5 and when the machine first displayed the default 10.5 background(the Nebula one... blueish-pink with stars)... as it was going though the start up IT LOOKED RIGHT.
Once everything was done and all my icons appeared- Boom! Back to ugly.
I have noticed the same thing occur if I shut down the machine.
Startup screen, the default (nebula)background(my choice of background) comes up... it looks fine, the icons start to show up... everything still looks good and then when everything is done... BAM! UGLY!
I'm not sure what to make of this... any suggestions
One last thing- I am VERY familiar with the default background for OS 10.5, I have used it on my iMac G5 for over 2 years. When I say the displayed "looked right" I mean, it looked like what I was used to and how it appears on other machines.
Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions.

mcgyver,
If start up and shut down look correct then something is set or corrupt in the user options. To test this, add a new user and signon as them.
Regards
Edit: I don't use 10.5.8 anymore so the following suggestions are for 10.6.5.
The things that may affect your display are:
System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing Tab. Display: Make sure Enhance contrast slider is set to normal. Use grayscale is unchecked.
System Preferences > Displays > Color tab > Display profile set to display or iMac. Whatever the default is on your system.

PowerMac G5 vs iMac Intel Core Duo

Hello, I currently have a PowerMac G5 Dual Core and am thinking of getting another computer. I have a question. In terms of performance, what is faster, the G5 (Dual) on the PowerMac or the Intel Core Duo on the iMac (running at the same speed).
And at the bottomline, what would be the machine that I want for gaming, publishing, and video editing? The PowerMac G5 (Dual) or the iMac with Intel.
Thanks for the assistance!! Have a good one.
P.S. Are there any plans of releasing a PowerMac with an Intel processor.
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

(Oh...right...sorry for mentioning that) Thanks for hte response!
Anyways, I just want a computer that will not be outdated for a while. I don't want to purchase the G5, and then months down the road, not see the G5 in production anymore.
One thing about the iMac I'm not too fond of is the lack of upgradibility (or so it seems so). Due to it's size, it would be very difficult for someone to upgrade it's internal components.
I will be purchasing either today evening of tommorow, and I want to know what will be my best choice for the future, the iMac Intel Core Duo or the PowerMac G5.
I always thought of the PowerMac G5 as a beast, and I still do, but some of the latest reviews and benchmark tests I have seen have said that the iMac (with Intel Core Duo) has performed very close to the PowerMac.

I have an iMac 17" 1.83ghz intel core from 2006. I need to reformat the hard drive. Which system do I install - the system disk in came with or can I install 10.6.8 which is what it's running now. And does the system have to be for an iMac?

Generation 4 iPod Connection to new iMac intel core 2 duo

Okay, first of all heres all my technical information:
-new iMac Intel Core 2 Duo
-Gen 4 iPod, non color diplay
-running iTunes 7.0.2
-sadly, no iPod power brick(although i think i need it to solve the problem)
Okay, now to the problem, I tried to connect the iPod to my new iMac, and it worked after leaving it alone for 15 minutes. It is formated to windows and i wanted the music to stay on it, so i disconnected it. Afterward i just thought, screw it, and connected it hoping to restore it, but it never showed up in iTunes or the finder. I thought this was odd, then i looked at the iPod and it displayed a image of a iPod power brick going into an outlet. i havent been able to get to the apple store and thought there must be an easier way to do this, so i went to get the old install disc for my iPod that came with it. Hoping this would finally work, i tried to run the package installer for the iPod to install the drivers, and it displayed(after it evaluated my comp) "Cannot be installed on this computer, missing Mac OSX Networking Update" I've looked all over the Downloads area of the Apple site and havent been able to find it. Can someone please help me!?!

I have the new 24" flat screen imac and a new IPOD video. I was using the ipod on an old mac with 10.4 and it was working ok with a few sync issues. But when I tried it with the new mac I get very bad results. Itunes hangs and I need to do a hard power reset. Then the ipod once hung up and I had to do a restore on my old mac. Still have not successfully used the ipod with the new mac.

The IP i'm pinging is the router on my network. All other machines that ping to this IP are returning around <5ms pings so I know it's not the router.
When I connect via ethernet I get <5ms as well so I know it's not another program on my mac causing issues.
I've tried connecting wirelessly to an Airport Extreme, Airport Express and directly to the Netgear DG384 wireless box, they all have the same issue.
Any help out there!?

Update- I deleted HP via Hp uninstall and also did a search on HD and deleted anything that siad HP. Reinstalled HP prpgram via original CD, then downloaded and installed OS 10.6 drivers and software from HP website then ran Apple software update and it updated 2 files and restarted the computer. The HP photosmart studio still did the same thing running very slow and not responding to clicking on any command. I called HP and they don't have Apple support on Sundays. Not sure if they will ever help me b/c I don't have extended service plan or they want to charge me. Apparently fro do google searches, they have been problems with the software and OS X 6-Snow Leopard. It's funny, I can print but just not use the photosmart software anymore. The problem seams to have worsened after I made a picture DVD using iDVD.- Where does iDVD get installed from? It's not part of iLife. I may uninstall iDVD and reinstall if I know where I got it from and see if that helps. I did run iPhoto yesterday and except for taking a long time to import my photos (hours for 1,600 picutres), it seems to run fine, so I can use that as long as I can use the printer to print and scan. I uninstalled HP again and was going to try reinstalling and only doing the Apple software update after and see if that chances anything. I will try calling HP after I have the software back on my computer. If I do decide to buy a new printer=- any suggestions?
Thanks

Quark 6.5 crashes when opening existing files on iMac Intel Core Duo

I just switched from a G4 titanium laptop to an Intel iMac and Quark works fine except when I try to open a file that I created on the laptop (same Quark 6.5). It crashes. I talked to Quark and they said that I need to open the files on a PC and resave (I don't have a PC or a friend with a PC and Quark not that I'd send them all my files even if I did). I've tried resaving and renaming files with no luck. I tried reinstalling both the operating system and Quark (both 6 and 6.5) with no luck. Has anybody else had this problem and found a work around? I want to sell my laptop but I can't until I know I can access the hundreds of client files I have there.
iMac Intel Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Sorry I have no real experience with this, just a thought. Did you use migration assistant to move the old files over from your G4 to your Intel? And did you then perform a "Repair Disk Permissions" upon the entire hard drive from within Disk Utility's "First Aid" panel? (located at Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility)
If the file move still is causing you a problem afterwards, you could try and work around it by moving the files in a different way. As a test, create a small file on the G4 and then email it to yourself from the G4. Receive that message into the Intel and see if the Intel can then open the file from inside Mail. This might avoid any "bias" created during the move from old to new Mac.
