Installed m4 crucial SSD and I cannot erase and format new drive. I get an error "wiping volume data to prevent future accidental probing failed." any suggestions? Thanks.

are you trying to format/erase it while it's in your Macbook?
I have 2 Crucial M4 SSD.
Connect via external USB. Boot your computer with your old hard drive and proceed with the erase feature if you're planning on cloning your drive.

Can't erase or paritition primary internal HD: "wiping volume data to prevent future accidental probing failed"

Yesterday my computer (mid-2010 macbook pro) froze and after doing a hard reset my computer would hang during the bootup process.
I then started the machine in recovery mode and tried to do a Repair Disk using the Disk Utility.
The Repair Disk failed an indicated that the partition needed to be erased and recreated.
Why I tried to erase and recreate the paritition, I got the error message: "wiping volume data to prevent future accidental probing failed"
I am unable to create a new partition on my internal hd using Disk Utility. I keep on getting the error same message. I've already tried the fixes mentioned in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4490281?start=0&tstart=0
I've tried creating the partition using Parted Magic but that fails as well
When I start the machine now in recovery mode, it goes to internet recovery.
I would suspect that this is a hd failure, but there are a couple of things that seem to indicate otherwise:
The Lion recovery parition is still visible in Disk Utility, and when I run a Verify Disk on it, everything is ok
Using Parted Magic, I've run a complete HD self test, and there are no errors reported
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there!
Sounds like i have similar problem but with my MacBook Pro 13' (9.2, mid 2012)
I have made some updates 500GB SSD Intel 520, and original kit of 500GB Toshiba 5400 (with Opticbay)
It is time to change kit Toshiba to larges one. My choise is Hitachi 7K1000 Travelstar 7200 rpm for 1TB (SATA III).
I try to set up new HDD to Opticbay, when using Disk Utility there is Error
"wiping volume data to prevent future accidental probing failed"
When i change it to original place for HDD - everything fine, but if SSD on Opticbay - MacBook does not see it.
I have read a lot of forums about this problem, and there some issues how to fix it - need to install updates for EFI Frimeware manualy, but suddenly it is impossible - when i try to install update there is Alert -
Actualy i realy need to help with that! Maybe some one?

If you have installed a new hard drive , you will need to have formatted it in Disk Utility correctly. This may explain your problem.
Boot into your 10.6 Install disk again at the top menubar > Utilities > select Disk utility and in there select your new hard drive, and select the tab Erase and choose to make the format as Mac OS Extended Journaled. When that is finished look in the main window to make sure that the partition map scheme says GUID Partition Table.
Now go to the Restore tab and reinstall from your backup.

I have a Windows XP Home Edition computer. I recently attempted to upgrade iTunes to v10.7. It loaded and installed OK, but now it won't run. When I try to launch it, it gets aborted by the windows Data Execution Prevention software. Any ideas?

Yes, this did solve the problem. But I had some trouble updating QuickTime. It failed, with the installer complaining that it did not have the required permissions to install the files it needed in the program directory. I got it to work by telling it to install the files to another directory. All seems well now - Thanks!

My contacts and photos were erased while update how do i get them back?

my contacts and photos were erased while update how do i get them back?

What Kilted said. If your photos or contacts were synced from another computer, get them there. Or if they have become unchecked in iTunes, re-check them and then sync. I had different things synced from two computers, and I think something like this happened to me. Anyway, now I will sync by wifi so probably won't have this worry any more.

Mac OS 10.10.2 is installed and can open documents on my new Mac Air but an error message occurs when trying to attach a PDF to emails. Apple was not able to fix. Any thoughts?

The message says:
Please wait
If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of your document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document.
Then it goes on to suggest an Reader upgrade, which I already did.

This is a copy of ONEof the keys in the registry I changed as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so I downloaded the software and installed again.
Sorry, just this minute went to insert image and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content is not allowed?.
The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr SiRem GEARAspiWDN.
The GEARsoftware info about manually deleting GEAR drive is from:

I hope you can help

HT1349 Trying to install latest iTunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Keep getting this error message "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."

Initially iTunes would not run although it had been running quite well up until now. Suddenly received this error on PC start-up "The program can't start because MSVC80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." Research on Net pointed me to iTunes as the issue. Tried to start iTunes and received that message again. Tried installing latest version of 64-bit iTunes and received the subject message part way through the install: Trying to install latest iTunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Keep getting this error message "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
iTunes has been running great on this PC for years. What's up?

Safari won't load and I can't update my software, ie., I get an error message. What can I do to fix this?

You can't install Safari 3 on your 10.3.9 OS.
You must use the DVD installer to re-install the older version of Safari found on it.
You can update your operating system buy purchasing Tiger (10.4) and get a more modern version of Safari.

Yeah, this is absolutely ********. I have t5he same message, only i just started getting it when my Iphone4 went in to recovery mode.
I uninstalled itunes, downloaded the lates itunes just now, reinstalled it and got the same message.
So, i did some more google research, and saw a recommendation that rather than installing itunes, one should unpack it with win zip, or win rar.
I did this, and even though I just downloaded the apple software today, when i try installing application support, i gwt a message saying A LATER VERSION OF APPLE APPLICATION SUPPORT IS ALREADY INSTALLED.. go figure! Du-uh!
So, i uninstalled the new itunes, went - control panel-programs- and dis a search for apple application support, found it and deleted it too.
Resinstalled itunes and again the same message.
unistalled everything again, tried installing application support first, then itunes, and now I get a message saying ITUNES WAS NOT ISNATLLED CORRECTLY!
I am so annoyed right now, that if my puter was a person, I would be in Jail!

You need to be very careful which project you open in which version.
For 2014 make sure its on 2014.1 build 81.

Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?
