IPad Connector not reading certain SD disks

FedEx delivered the Camera/SD Card Connector kit today. The iPhone to the iPad is fine.
Sadly, the SD card connector/iPad isn't performing like it should.
I've tried 3 cameras and 4 different brands of SD cards. All the SD cards work on the Wii, my MacMini and a 3 yr old PC notebook.
However, on the iPad, only the 2 yr old Viking SD card and Sandisk work. Kingston and Lexar SD cards do not! Unfortunately the Kingston is new.
The iPad sees the Kingston and Viking SD cards but in a box it says, "THM" with a question mark.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

I don't have my camera connector yet, but I read that formatting the card IN your camera, nit in your computer is one trick.

Can I use this DIR-635 to extend the WiFi network of the "Belgacom" WiFi?
To answer this question correctly, a user would need to have a DIR-635 router connected by Ethernet to a Belgacom router.
If you think about it, the chances of another user who has these two same devices configured this way and also being on an Apple support forum to see your post are about zero.
The following might work, but you will not know until you try.
Configure the DIR-635 to provide a wireless network that uses the exact same wireless network name, exact same wireless security and exact same password as the Belgacom wireless router. Make sure that the DIR-635 is configured in Bridge Mode.
Can I purchase and set-up an Apple Airport Express or Apple Airport Extreme on my level 1 (the ethernet cable running from level 2 to level 1 could plug-into either of those)
The AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme would need to be configured exactly the same way as mentioned above.
(What is the difference in the 2 -- one is about twice the price of the other…)

Sony Optiarc BD Rom BC-5500S is not reading blu ray disks

I have a pavilion dv7-1070ev and upgrade from windows vista home premium 32bit to Windows 7 home premium 64bit.The laptop came with the optical drive Sony Optiarc BD Rom BC-5500S with Firmware version 1.83.The problem is that the bd-rom is not reading blu ray disks. When i put in CD's/DVD's everything is fine -> drive starts to spin up and a little later the disc is readable/available in windows. When i put in a BluRay disc -> drive just makes a very short silent spin effort (to identify disc?),and no disc is available in windows. When i double click my drive icon (in my computer) it pops up a window asking me to insert a disc.Note that it is the first time I put blu-ray disk to watch blu-ray movie.I have never used the bd-rom when the laptop had windows vista.
The drive is compatible with windows 7 b4bit

Searched in forums I found these solutions :
A clean registry
1. To begin the process, start the Registry Editor.
    Click START,click RUN, type REGEDIT, and then click OK.
    Click the plus(+) next to the following folders in the left side of the window pane:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    SYSTEM
    CurrentControlSet
    Control
    Class
    (4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318)
2. Look for any of the following names in the right side of the window pane:
    UpperFilters
    LowerFilters
3. If any of the items above are listed, right click on the item and select DELETE.
4. Be sure to restart your computer after you have deleted the files in the registry.
B.new firmware
1.Download the latest version for the retail version of this drive from sony at:
http://www.sony-optiarc.eu/uploads/media/WinDL_BC5500S_V106_02.zip
Sony says that you can only update from Firmware versions 1.01, 1.02, 1.03, 1,04 and 1.05. Previous firmware version(s) other than mentioned here are probably OEMs and therefore cannot be updated with this file. Contact your PC manufacturer (FTS, DELL, HP....) if you require firmware updates for these drives.
I have HP version 1.83 dated December 2007 so I cannot update.

Can anyone help ;

QuickPlay is made by Cyberlink who also makes Power DVD 10, 11 and 12 products.
You have to uninstall QuickPlay and all Power DVD products (don't use QuickPlay anymore, it's outdated and it will not be updated as it's been long discontinued). There is also a Power DVD folder(s) that needs to be deleted as well.
After you have uninstalled everything, run CCleaner as many times as necessary and delete what it finds in its registry cleaner.
http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/
Here is also a link for Power DVD11 cleaner as well, use this after CCleaner.
http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/16915.page (restart after all of this)
Are you running the trial of DVD or have you paid for it ? If you want to purchase some Blu-ray software then stay away from Cyberlink, I use Total MediaTheatre 5 and it's much better.
Also available for free is Power DVD 10 for HP owners, when installed correctly, it's OK, but it's not with out its problems.
If you want to install Power DVD10, then post again.
The other thing that worries me is your Sony drive, I have had many people here that I can't get the Sony drive to read Blu-ray's. I don't know if its firmware is out of date (there is no firmware update) or if the new updated Blu-ray players have become incompatible.
You may be forced to buy a Pioneer or HP Blu-ray reader.

Ipad speaker not playing certain sounds or only playing them softly

Not sure if this is the right category. My Ipad speaker seems to not be playing certain sounds, for instance on the song Norwegian Wood the sitar is near silent. Have to put my ear right against the speaker to even hear it. I've tried a few different versions of the songs on different sites and in different apps but it's always the same, and it appears to be like this on other songs. Any help? Is there something I can adjust or is it in need of repairs? It's still under warranty. Thanks

Assuming that you are playing the songs in the Music app and not some third party app, you should probably have the iPad evaluated at an Apple Store. But before you do that, try this. Then see what happens.
Quit the music app completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Dual 1.8 PowerPC G5 does not read Tiger Install Disk

Has anyone else had problems with their Mac not reading the OSX Tiger 10.4 install disks? I just purchased Tiger brand new from Apple, but my Mac Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5 will not even acknowledge the install disk. I currently have OSX 10.3.9 running. Help!

Either your Tiger disc is defective or your optical drive is. Can you read other CDs in the same drive? If so, contact Apple to arrange for a replacement CD.

My new macbook pro will not read a pc disk

A DVD-r generated on a PC of unknown type and model was given to me. My Mac will not read it, but other PCs will. I am in the wilderness here physically and I really need to read this disk. My MBP is fully up to date with OS 10.6.8 The internal drive can read other DVDs just fine. I insert the DVD and my computer reads it as blank. Can you help? I thought MBPs could read anything. Silly me

Chances are that the disc was burned without finalizing it on the PC, which is essential for a Mac to be able to read it. If that wasn't done, there's no way you can access its contents. This is not a result of the machine on which it was burned, it's a user error. Request another copy of the disc that has been finalized properly.

Mac not reading certain DVDs.....

Can someone offer a download/quickfix to this problem? One DVD in particular works fine on my DVD player connected to my TV, but will not read on my computer.
Is there something I can download to improve the readability of the software? I have Toast 7 and IDVD, but I think the problem isn't with either player, but something with the machine.
Thoughts ?

Many have reported mixed results reading DVDs on Macs and here are the most common reasons:
1. If these are all commercial movie DVDs, and they are the standard size on
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58641
and the problem is strictly with playing movies, I'd contact Apple here:
http://www.apple.com/contact/phone_contacts.html
2. There are some programs in the media content of discs that only work on Windows or a special DVD Player called Interactual Player. http://player.interactual.com/default.asp?code=MAC
3. If these are homemade DVDs it gets stickier. Many people burn to DVD something other than the standard Video_TS folders, thus they aren't playable in a standard DVD Players. DVD-R DL is not as supported as DVD+R DL.
Older Macs don't support DVD+R DL or single layer at all. To find out if yours does, check the specs of your Mac:
http://www.info.apple.com/support/applespec.html
If the Mac only supports CD-ROM, CD-RW, or CD-R, then it doesn't support DVD at all. Combo drive Macs support playing DVD-ROM and DVD-R discs, but now DVD-RW or DVD+R unless the specs actually say those formats are supported. Superdrive Macs of varying vintages may support DVD-R, and DVD-RW, but not DVD+R or DVD+RW when it comes to burning.
PC burnt DVDs in UDF or Joliet may not read at all whereas those burnt in ISO 9660 have a much better chance of being read. For UDF, you may need:
http://www.softarch.com/us/products/rdvd.html
4. DVDs burnt for different regions than a region locked DVD drive may also not play:

Finder will not search certain hard disks

Hi Folks,
I have two Drobo storage devices connected to my My MacPro. Both are running with the same formatting "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". I can search one of these disks but not the other. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

MBP Not reading certain CDs

Hi,
We've just bought a brand new 2GHz MacBook Pro with an extra 512Mb RAM installed (by Apple). After dutifully downloading about 400Mb of updates, including upgrading it to OSX 10.4.7 and downloading a firmware update (everything went fine), we started to play around with it.
First disk I put in was a Futurama (Season 4) DVD - Apple DVD Player asked to confirm the region selection and said that "The region could only be changed 5 more times" - the disk played fine through both DVD player and Front Row.
Next, I ejected this and put a music CD in (Jools Holland: Swinging the Blues, Dancing the Ska), but the MBP just spat this out. Next, I tried the Office '04 Student Edition installer CD, and after about 3 mins of clicking and whirring, this got spat out too. Thinking we had a dead CD drive on our hands, I tried 3 more music CDs - all worked fine -opened up in iTunes and Front Row and played fine. I even tried the installer CD for Photoshop CS2 and this worked fine, so did the Mac OSX Installer DVD (only software DVD to hand...). A CD that was burnt on our G4 Tower also worked fine
I tried the two problem CDs in my G4 PowerBook (OSX 10.4.5), and they worked absolutely fine.
I've done the basic troubleshooting things - reboot, repair permissions, reboot again, create another user account to see if the problem still exists, and there's no change - the two CDs keep on getting rejected by the MBP.
What's going on here - is there an easy way to resolve this problem without taking the laptop on a 3 hour round-trip drive back to the Apple store? Everything else about it's fine - there is a slight whine but nothing at all to moan about (only noticable when actually listening for it). Are there any prefs files I can trash?
The MBP has the SuperDrive, whereas the PB only has a DVD/CD-RW Combo drive.
Thanks for the help

The region limitation is explained here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60183
While there are some region free DVD players, none of the ones I've seen on Macs are.
Also Macs don't support Copy Protected CDs:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106882
Disks you've created on media which is not compatible with the drive may also pose a problem:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58641
I've also found a lot of bad media out there. Media stored on spindles have a tendency to last much shorter than media stored in jewelcases.
The fact the Office disk got spat out suggests the drive or the disk in question may be becoming dirty.
While there are disk drive cleaners out there, if your machine is under warranty, I'd recommend you stick with having AppleCare take care of it. Note, with notebook computers you often don't have to drive anywhere. Just call AppleCare, and they'll ship you a box to have it repaired by their service center. Before you do that, backup your data, and be sure to keep track of any case numbers they give you.
As for your MacBook Pro:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303365
is recognized as something to contact AppleCare about.

Ipad mini not reading SDXC card

my ipad mini says it cannot read storage media for a SDXC card - okay with SDHC? what can i do> tried reformatting card to NFTS like suggested but no difference

Hi,
If you use the iPad Camera Connection Kit, then SDXC cards are supported.
Using the iPad Camera Conection Kit - this is Apple Support site. It says:
'Here are the supported SD cards and image-transfer protocols:
Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP)
Mass Storage Device protocol
SDSC
SDHC
miniSD
microSD
MMC
SDXC (supported only when not formatted as ExFAT)'

Disk drive does not read mac game disk

Hi everyone,
Been having this problem for over a year now - but it's becoming an absolute nuisance and can't find the solution anywhere!
My disk drive works fine for music CDs and burnt CDs, but now for some reason it doesn't want to mount/load a mac game of Roller Coaster Tycoon (bought from the apple store too!). It just spins and doesn't show up in finder or loads and then literally a few minutes of spinning later (in which time pressing eject does nothing) a message comes up saying "you just inserted a blank CD"
Is there a solution to this? Please!
I'm using 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Due MBP bought in 2008.
Thanks!

Try making any change in System Preferences +CDs & DVDs+ pane. For example, if you have a music CD handy, change +When you insert a music CD+ to something else, such as Ignore. Insert the music CD and see if it is accepted and mounted.
If that works, change it back to the way it was set before, and see if that works now. Then see if other types of discs now work.
If it's a hardware problem, doing the above will not help. But it sometimes does work if the problems is with software or corrupted preferences.

TS1702 My ipad will not download certain apps others without a problem? Does anyone have an idea what I need to do?

I am trying to watch a TV show on my ipad. The apps that would allow that Hulu, ABC, NBC..etc will not download. The buy box or free box is gray and does not respond? Other apps download fine. Does anyone have any advice?

Have you got an app age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions > Apps that is stopping them from being bought ?

My new MacBook Pro will not read my OSX disk.

So far everything has been working great on this computer until I reached this problem. Other CD's seem to be read just fine except for the CD's that came with my computer.
Questions.
1. What can I do? Will Apple give me new ones for free?
2. Is there something wrong with my computer?
3. Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks for the info and insights.

Yeah it sounds like the disk is grinding or rubbing on something. However when I try a different CD there is nothing. Only with the disks that came with the computer do I have this problem.

Mac Mini will not read dvd data disk ie osx install disk with internal drive but will read dvd movies

As title said , cant get internal drive to read data dvd's havent tried cd's. I also tried to use an external drive with no luck with any disks. system info shows the drive though. So i guess i have 2 issues. any ideas will help thank you

If the drive can read a movie DVD then the problem must be that the OS DVD is either dirty or badly scratched. Look at the shiny side. If it has finger prints clean it with a lint free cloth. If it has scratches you can call Apple for a replacement disc for a nominal charge.
