Installer does not recognize installation disk on Macintosh

I am installing PhotoShop on my new Mac Mini (previously had CS5 on my MacPro). I've gotten all the way through the installation process to the point where it is asking for my "Adobe CS5 Web Premium" disk to be inserted. It is already inserted, but is not recognized. I've ejected and re-inserted the disk; I've re-booted; I've tried over and over again, but it is not "seeing" the disk, even though it's right there on my desktop. I can't get past that point.
I have successfully re-installed Acrobat Pro and Illustrator previously with no problems. I'm trying to install PhotoShop separately. Help.

You can try downloading the Suite and using the serial number from your disk to activate...

Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

The Windows Installer does not permit installation from a RDP connection.

Hello!
Today when was installing Exchange 2013SP1 onto one of my virtual machines I got the following error:
This error has suprised me in a lot of ways: 1) it was my 10th, or 20th or ... installation of Exchange on to the same test VM and this error has never arised before, 2) it's rather tardy error as Step1 and Step2 completed successfully in spite of
"The Windows Installer does not permit installation from a RDP connection." 3) I was using
Virtual machine connection - not RDP connection!
Thank you in advance,
Michael

It looks like the installation files are being shared over a terminal services connection (based on what you are saying, I'm guessing you're using Hyper-v and it's using TS to present the files). I always run into mixed results when I run installs from
a path not local to the server. Can you copy the install paths locally and rerun setup?

Snow Leopard Installer does not recognize Hard drive in disk utility.

I first at the suggestion of apple technicians because of other problems erased and partitioned hard drive. Now when I go to reinstall Snow Leopard it does not recognize the Macintosh Hard Drive, not even in disk utility. Any help will be greatly appreciate.

To make sure we understand everything correctly, you are saying that when you start up from the Snow Leopard DVD & run its copy of Disk Utility from the Utilities menu, it shows only the DVD installer disc itself in the list on the left of Disk Utility's window? There is nothing else there?
Also, what are you booted from when you try to make an image of the installer DVD, the DVD itself or something else? Are you using Disk Utility or something else to make the image?
This seems very weird for sure. If you were running from some hard disk copy of the OS, I would suspect that its copy of Disk Utility or some OS support file was corrupted, but if you are doing this from the DVD that is extremely unlikely unless the DVD itself is physically damaged.
Apart from that, pretty much the only thing left is a damaged hard drive or other hardware failure in your Mac.

ESX1 5.5 Installer does not recognize local storage

Brand new install, new server (we're new at this too), ESXi installer does not see local drives during set up. Server is an IBM x3650 M4, with an M5110e_R5 RAID controller.
we've tried with no RAID setup, we've set up arrays, removed them again, no luck. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance

Very likely "multipath -ll" doesn't show up any path to sdb from the device mapper (neither it is in /dev/mapper)
- Make sure you've rescanned disks from OVM Manager (Select the ovm server disks page) ;
- try to perform "multipath -d" to see if it takes the path from sdb into account. If it is, run "multipath" no option
- try to reboot the OVM server since it's not too late ;-)
Other than that I'm afraid you'll have to figure out why device mapper doesn't map your disk; the ovm server should have "script" install on it. Do the following :
cd /root
script figureoutwhyitsucks.log
multipathd -k
show config
<ctrl>+D
exit
That file would be helpful to figure out.

Windows XP re-installation does not recognize any hard drive - help

Hi,
I have X60s Model: 17044JU
I have original XP installed.
My computer is very slow and I am trying to reinstall XP from my CD (and format HD so I clean everything).
When Windows installations blue screen shows up and loads drivers etc then it tells me that it does not recognize any hard drive.
I thought I may need SCSI or RAID drivers but since I don't have floppy I can not load them.
Any help how to install new XP would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi
I changed BIOS setup from AHCI to Compatibility and indeed it worked.
However there is easier way to reload new system on thinkpad.
I didn't know that but you can press ThinkVantage button when you start your laptop and IBM utilities start up.
Then there is an option to reload the system to be in original state as shipped from the factory. It loads or drivers and initial programs. It also formats your hard drive.
I found it pretty convenient.
Thanks for help.

VM Server installer does not recognize RAID configuration in Intel ESRT2

Hello,
I'm having a big issue here trying to deploy my third Oracle VM Server.
I have:
- A Intel Server Board S3420GPLC
- A Intel Xeon X3440 processor
- 16GB DDR3 ECC Memory
- Six 1TB Hard Drives
What I'm trying to do:
- Create a RAID array using Intel ESRT2 (Embedded Server RAID Technology II) using all the discs (done)
- Install Oracle VM Server into the array
- Install some VMs....
The problems:
- When I boot the VM Server installer from USB stick I got an error saying that there is not enought memory. This issue is solved by typing "linux mem=15GB"
- I got a screen per disk warning me about that the discs need to be initialized and all the data will be lost
- When I go to the disk partitioning screen all the disks are listed separated, the installer simply don't recognize the RAID configured before.
What I already tryied:
- Change the RAID controller from ESRT2 to Intel Matrix
-> Didn't solve.
- Create a Driver Disk with the disk images supplied by Intel here
-> I launch the installer using "linux mem=15GB noprobe=ata1 noprobe=ata2 ....". When Im asked by the installer to load the drivers it doesn't recognize the disk, so i couldn't load the drivers.
Now, the questions:
- Is there another driver I can use do make the vm server installer recognize the RAId configured?
- Is there a better way to setup this server, considering that it needs to be "self contanied" (store and run vms)?
Edited by: xyp on 14/10/2010 11:37

So...
- I have installed VM Server into ordinary linux partitions on the first disk.
- I have created a big partition in the first disc with the space not used for the VM Server
- I have created five equal partitions on the other discs
- I have configured software raid 10 using mdadm
Now the problem seems to be solved, i have a storage repository with almost 3TB and can deploy my VMs.
Unfortunatelly only my windows 2008 r2 hardware virtualized vm is working, the linux paravitualized guests not. but this new issue will be a subject for another topic.

Safari Installer Does Not Recognize Mac OSX After 10.5.5 Update

I have been trying to reinstall Safari on my Mac, and after downloading the installer it says that my hard drives does not contain OSX and cannot be installed. This is after I did the OSX 10.5.5 update. I know I can reinstall from the OS disc but it is a hassle really.

Hello,
Sounds like your Software Updater is confused. Locate this file: com.apple.softwareupdate.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and reboot. Try Software Update now.
Also, whenever you do an update like 10.5.4 to 10.5.5... run Disk Utility to Repair Disk Permissions BEFORE and AFTER the update. That can fix a myriad of problems with any updates.
Disk Utility is in your Applications/Utilities folder. Launch DU, select the FirstAid tab, then click Repair Disk Permissions. Takes about a minute to run depending on the size of the drive. When it's finished, Quit Disk Utility from the Menu Bar. That's all there is to it.

Lightroom does not recognize external disk in some backups

Strange thing:
I have opened LR (5.3) today. Last time was a few days ago.
I have 2 ext harddisks. 1st is called WDPhotoDrive with station letter 'F' and 2th is called WDPhotoDriveBackUp with stationletter 'G'.
This is so since a couple of years. Suddenly LR does not see F anymore in the latest backups. It sees the folders in G, that's a bit strange because they are not there. G is only used for import backup.
And there are question marks everywhere.
When I open a backup catalogue from two weeks ago or older then LR recognizes both drives and the folders in the wright drive (F). But then I miss some work from the last weeks of course.
I really don't know what happened. Last time (few days) ago I just closed the program like always and with backup.
Anyone??
Regards,
Michel

Thanx.
No, Windows (or I) hasn't changed a thing. It sees them as F and G.
Strange is that LR sees F and G correct in an older backup and not in backups from the last two weeks. Then it sees the exact folders (but with ?) but on the G drive. And they are on the F drive.

IMac does not recognize any disk at all

Hi, guys, here is something new, and I would appreciate if you can help me out!
I was watching a DVD on my iMac intel, and decided to play FIFA world cup for a while. So I booted my mac to Windows, while it's booting, I inserted FIFA world cup disk into the DVD driver as usual. However, the computer did not boot into Windows, instead it turned into black screen. I waited for a while, but nothing was happening, so I manually turned off the computer.
After, I restarted my computer, the DVD driver refused to recognize any disks (after inserting disks, the driver tries to read, and then ejects the disk). So I repaired the disk permissions, but nothing has improved. Then I verified the disk, the following massage came out:
Volume Header needs minor repair
The volume The volume sh needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
So, I couldn't repair the disk, and I tried to repair it from my start up disk, but I couldn't, because the computer doesn't read the disk.
And now, my computer still can't read and recognize disks.
Thanks indeed for your help

Hi,
have a look with the 'Sytem Profiler' if there is the Disc Drive mentioned !
As for a solution you could try and do the System Update 10.4.8 again with using the combo update found here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1048comboupdateintel.html
BUT, as with your Harddisc OSX partition still having to be repaired I'm not that sure if this a good idea.
You should try to make a backup at least of your important files and if you can try to find a friend with an external drive from which you can boot Mac.
Otherwise call Apple Care or go to the shop where you bought it for a repair as there is still the possibility that your Disc Drive itself is broken.
Regards
Stefan

I've downloaded Windows 7 onto my USB drive and Boot Camp does not recognize the disk.

Following the Apple Support manual, I've initiated the creation of a partition and downloaded Windows 7 from Microsoft's online store to a USB disk. When I attempt to initiate the creation of my partition to install Windows 7, I receive a notification that my installer disc could not be found.
Thanks in advance!
