LaCie d2 Fire Wire CD-RW Drive...will it work on Intel based iMac?

Had this installed on old G4. Will it work on iMac?

Addendum to previous question:
Went to LaCie web site to attempt to get answer to this, but site wouldn't even recognize the Serial #...maybe it is outdated.
Think I installed it in 2002.

My Hybrid 1TB Seagate Hard Drive will not work in my data doubler caddy installed in the optical bay

My Hybrid 1TB Seagate Hard Drive will not work in my data doubler caddy installed in the optical bay of my MacBook Pro

Thanks for all the advice. It looks like I have finally got my MBP working again (after two weeks of pain).
The WD HD works fine internally, but restoring from TM introduced a whole load more of issues/incompatabilities (see above). Eventually the only thing left was to re-build rather than restore:
i) mount the WD disk internally and install Snow Lepoard from the orginial installation disks
ii) get online, and after much trying download Lion (previously purchased). Perfrom all update.
iii) Connect my Time Capsule, identify my data, photo and music files and then copy them accross by hand
iv) install all the other applications (e.g. MS Office:mac, etc) from scratch.
This exercise has shown me that even though tools and procedures exist to address separate issues, when the complexity of inter-dependence is introduced there are a raft of problems that crop up.
Now I am back in business I will be using TM and CCC to take full and regular copies. I did this previously, which has saved me from losing my data and cherished pictures, but hopefully next time (and I'm sure there will be a next time) the recovery will be less infuriating.
BTW I got a refund on the Seagate Momentus XT. They guy in the shop said it wasn't the first time he'd heard of this issue with MBPs. Great.

Updated my HP Laptop to Windows 8 and now DVD driver will not work. Help!

I have a Hp Pavilion dv-7013cl Entertainment PC and everything was working perfectly. I updated to Windows 8 about a month ago and had some problems. I then did a clean install of Windows 8 and now all the bugs are fixed except my DVD drive will not work.
I insert a DVD or CD and nothing happens. I go to My Computer and click on it and it just ejects the DVD. I don't know what to do and need my DVD drive.
Also, I tried to go to device manager and reinstall the driver but that didn't help.

Apple TV Will It Work On A 24inch iMac Computer?

I Posted This in The Wrong Forum I Hope Someone Will Delete The Other? its in The iMac Forum, If I Ever Wanted To Buy Apple TV? Will it Work with a 24inch iMac Computer? or just a Certain Kind of TV Monitor? Cause when i go to The Apple Computer Store I See they have it on a Really Big TV Monitor do i really have to Buy that kind of Sized TV Monitor? instead of Using it on a 24inch iMac Computer? I Don't Go To The Apple Store A Lot, but I Was Just thinking of it cause i Notice They Have That.

It will connect to a TV or monitor with either HDMI or component inputs.
It is mainly designed to be used with HDTV's.
It won't work with an iMac's monitor.
Some monitors have HDMI inputs.

Need to "restore/over write" data from ex Fire Wire to internal drive

Let me say up-front that I know little about computers. I backed up my internal drive to my external Fire Wire, as I was going to reinstall Tiger (don't ask me why. It seemed a good idea at the time). Without much thought I checked the clean/erase installation box. (using the Backup 3 download from .mac)
So, when I tried to restore my data, the new install has no record of ever backing up to my Fire Wire, and so won't accept a "Restore" command.
Is there any way I can get my start up drive to rewrite itself from my Fire Wire, or is it (A) a lost cause, or (B) The kind of thing that has to go to the shop?

Mr Hamilton:
I'm plugged into a Firewire port (I think. Someone else set it up for me. I'll have my friend verify when I see him this week.)
Mr Majordadusma:
I bought my computer four years ago, around this time of year. "About this Mac" says:
1 Ghz PowerPC G4
1MB L3 cache
1.25 GB DDR SDRAM
Startup Disk Untitled
Machine Model: PowerMac3.6
Boot ROM Version: 4.6.0f1
My External hard drive is listed under "ATA Bus". It's an IBM-1C35L.... there are more letters and numbers, but in case it's the serial number, I'm stopping here. In case they tell the model number, I'm hoping this is enough info to identify. The capasidy is 57.27 GB, with 44.1 GB available.
File System: Journeled HFS +
Don't know if this is too much info or not enough.
I will try the things you suggested (or, rather, get my friend to try as I'm pretty much afraid to touch my machine. When I backed-up, my iTunes should have had my music and video library, but even though my games and some other backed-up stuff is there, we haven't been able to bring up my Library's--they come up blank--I'm afraid that I mayhave done something to screw that up, so am leery of messing with my computer). If they do not work, I'll report it back here.
I'll also check back here later, in case my G4 model doesn't allow me to boot from an external drive.

Connecting old Fire wire 400 External Drive with no FW 800 ports, how?

I have a fire wire 400 drive and so i switched to mac pro which doesn't have 400 things. so i can't connect it.
ANyway to do it?

Firewire 800 is fully backwards compatible with Firewire 400. You need a "bilingual" firewire cable or adapter to plug the Firewire 400 drive in your Firewire 800 port.

External Hard Drive Will Not Work

I purchased the recommended 1TB WD hard drive. It worked for a couple of days, recorded some programs-- all of which froze after a few minutes, and now my DVR repeatedly shuts down and reboots when the external drive is plugged in. Here's the message I get:
the set-top box will reset because an external hard drive was improperly disconnected
The only way I have disconnected the drive is by going into settings and clicking on "EJECT" as recommended.
Would someone please tell me what is going on here? Thanks.

Sorry to hear about the troubles you are having with the drive. One thing you can do to try to correct the drive issue is to hold down the power button on the drive. You will get a pop up message that an unknown storage device has been found. Click to accept the new device. The drive should now be connected. Go to the main menu of the DVR box and select the option for DVR. Go to expanded storage and format the drive. Let us know if further assistance is needed.

OS X lion USB Thumb Drive - will this work on new Mac Mini or MBA (2011)?

Hi All,
Not to be confused with the other similar posts, I am interesting in only clarification of what build comes with the USB Thumb Drive now available on Apple Store - will this work with new MBA and Mac Mini?
Thanks,

From what I have read about the usb installer, it is not intended for you to try booting from the stick after wiping your hard drive. You are to click on the installer
You may be correct, but this statement is quite confusing in that context:
Important Note
When you install OS X Lion using the USB thumb drive, you will not be able to reinstall OS X Lion from Lion Recovery. You will need to use the USB thumb drive to reinstall OS X Lion.
So, if the Thumb drive is supposed to take the part of the Recovery partition, it seems that it should be able to boot. However, the license agreement still requires an Apple computer running Snow Leopard, so maybe it isn't bootable.

1.5 TB Seagate drive will not work with Airport Extreme.

I have a 1.5 TB external drive connected to airport extreme. I cannot get this drive to be recognizedby the computers connected to the Airport Extreme. The drive show up as "-1.4 TB - Seagate FreeAgent 0138" under disks in Airport Utility can plug it in directly to my Mac Air and a PC and the drive will work. When I plug the drive in directly to a PC or Mac Air, it is recognized and can be used.
I can plug in a 250 GB external drive into the Airport extreme and they will work.
Also, the 1.5 TB works when plugged locally to a PC or Mac using USB.
Anyone know how to get it to work with the Airport Extreme?

Assuming that the drive has been formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or MS-DOS FAT32, you almost always need to use a powered hub with a drive attached to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme...even if the drive has its own power supply.....because the USB port is under powered and will not supply enough current to most hard drives.

I just bought a new iMac and am ready to purchase Logic Pro X, but I have a Presonus Fire Studio Project with a firewire 400 as my connection. Will this work with my new iMac? I purchased the Presonus around 2007.

I just bought a new iMac 10.9 and am wanting to purchase Logic Pro X. My question is I have a 2007 Presonus Fire Studio Project 8 channel input box that hooks up with firewire 400 I believe, will this work with Logic ProX on my new iMac?

You will need a Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter... may also need a Firewire 800 to 400 connector/adapter.
Also need to make sure Presonus has Maverick drivers for the FSP.

Upgrading MacBook Hard Drive, Will this work?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822136072
Will that work?

That drive should be fine - there's even a review on Newegg from a user who installed it in a MacBook. He liked it, but says it vibrates more than the original drive.
I'll be installing the 160G WD Scorpio in my MacBook later this week, from Newegg. If it vibrates too much, it will go into an external enclosure, and I'll try something else for internal.
