Laserjet 1300 with blinking orange light

Got a laserjet 1300 with a blinking orange light. When restarting, motor works. I have cold-booted and reset all wiring. What's wrong?

When you set it to +manage manually+, iTunes keeps the iPod (as a storage device) mounted. Therefore, +enable disk use+ is also checked because that is the setting where you have to formally eject the iPod before disconnecting it.
If you have it set to sync (uncheck the +manage manually+ setting), iTunes automatically un-mounts the iPod (as a storage device) when iTunes is not syncing. Therefore, you are allowed to disconnect the iPod without clicking on eject first. But if you want to use the iPod as a storage device, you have the option to +enable disk use+ (and use the sync setting)

Constantly blinking orange light; no longer recognized by computer

I just purchased my shuffle yesterday, connected it to my MAC, charged it (the light turned green), downloaded podcasts from I Tunes and everything seemed fine. I had to leave for a couple of hours and left the Shuffle in the docking station. I came back and the light has been blinking orange ever since (over 24 hours) and the Shuffle is no longer on my computer or recognized as a Device in I Tunes. I tried all the 5 "r's". Any other suggestions - other than taking it back to the store. I would think the product would have a longer life than 36 hours.

I had the blinking orange light happen to my shuffle today when I connected to my XP machine which holds my iTunes.
I tried uninstalling the device, changing the drive letter, changing the USB port it was connected to, the apple reset tool (garbage...). Nothing could get it to connect, I kept getting the message that the iPod was corrupted.
Eventually I took it to my Apple, plugged it in, got it recognized no problem, synced and erased to that iTunes library then did the factory restore.
Took it back to the PC, and was able to re-sync and rebuild the library on the shuffle from there.
So the answer seems to be find a friend with an Apple or take it to your local Apple Store and have them restore the iPod from a Mac.
It's a ghetto fix but I couldn't find any other way to get it to function on my PC

Shuffle has constant blinking orange light when connected to computer

The shuffle constantly has a blinking orange light when connected to the computer. Itunes and the computer recognizes the ipod. I am getting the error, "The device 'Generic volume' cannot be stopped right now. Try stopping the device again later' when I try to eject the ipod. I have tried to restore the ipod and downloading itunes again and it doesn't work. Please help.

I received an ipod shuffle for Christmas and am having the same problem. When I try to eject it (from either itunes or from "Safely Remove hardware" on Windows, i am told that there is another application trying to use the hardware with similar messages to those above.
It even manages to freeze my computer on Shut Down and on Startup if i leave it connected, and only when I disconnect it does the computer start.
i too would appreciate any help in resolving this.

Only a blinking orange light!!

We can't get our ipod shuffle (2nd gen.) to do anything. We have a nano that works great, have itunes already installed for that. When we plug in the dock for the shuffle, the computer makes a noise to show it's there but nothing happens, the orange light just keeps blinking on the shuffle. We didn't even get the Setup Assistant. We tried reinstalling itunes, we've registered the shuffle, we've tried a different USB port...still the blinking orange light and nothing else. ANY ideas???????

We found an answer. Our Dell - has several drives
and a card reader that assume the first few letters
of the alphabet. In addition we are part of a larger
network that also assigns drive letters for network
shares that are toward the front of the alphabet.
Apparently the I-pod is limited to those same few
initial letters.
A tech friend of ours some how manually reassigned
the 4 drives associated with the card reader to drive
letters at the end of the alphabet.

K9N2 SLi Platinum Blinking Orange Light

Hello All,
New to the forums and was hoping you could shed some light on this problem im having, purchased recently a MSi K9N2 Platinum m/b, Installed it, hit power and nothing, No fans, Just a blinking orange light in the bottom RT corner of the m/b ...The manual says the LED lamp is the Standby lamp, It keeps blinking every half second non stop. I Jump started my PSU to make sure it was working and it is, could not check the Amps though, no meter :(
I read about the Dual rail topic also, i see 12V1 and 12V2 on the PSU does that mean it's dual rail? or does it even matter? Bottom line is I can't get the m/b to fire up. Sorry for the newbish questions all and Thanks in advance.
System Specs
Windows Vista X64
AMD Phenom 9850 X4 2.5Ghz
OCz 850W PSU
Evga 8800GTX 768mb Graphics card
4 gigs memory (X2 Patriot & X2 OCz 800Mhz)
Soundblaster XF-i Soundcard

What about VGA power cables? Are they plugged in too?
Else:
Test the motherboard outside of the case to verify that the motherboard is not shorting to the case and causing a problem
• With only the CPU and heat sink, memory, and video card (or onboard video) connected to the motherboard, place the motherboard on a non-conductive surface and retest the motherboard
• Check the case mounting standoffs to verify that they are lining up correctly with the mounting holes on the motherboard.
If still no change try with another and powerfull enough PSU.

Blinking orange light while charging, done or not done

iPod shuffle 4th gen, using as hard drive too -- manual says it's either full or still blinking. Is there no way to know from the sync page? Maybe am repeating question already answered. If so, sorry, & thanks.

Blinking Orange Light Continues After Synch Is Complete

The manual says that when the orange light is blinking "when blinking do not disconnect"
the blinking orange light stays on continuously after synch with Itunes.
Is this an issue?

When you set it to +manage manually+, iTunes keeps the iPod (as a storage device) mounted. Therefore, +enable disk use+ is also checked because that is the setting where you have to formally eject the iPod before disconnecting it.
If you have it set to sync (uncheck the +manage manually+ setting), iTunes automatically un-mounts the iPod (as a storage device) when iTunes is not syncing. Therefore, you are allowed to disconnect the iPod without clicking on eject first. But if you want to use the iPod as a storage device, you have the option to +enable disk use+ (and use the sync setting)

Blinking orange light - time capsule - icpw error

my time capsule 2 has a blinking orange light and when I right click and hit assist me the error reads icpw check for software update. I follow the instructions to update the software and all software is current. How can I fix this error? my wireless network is down Thanks

Hi - I saw that no one answered your question and although I don't have a TC, I like to learn - so I did some research (the search box on this forum and Google) and iCPW seems to mean "incorrect password" - it may be that the TC or AU is picking up a password problem somewhere in your system - it could be a changed Apple ID or iCloud issue or ????? - so you have to do some detective work and track it down - other posts have referred to these things - the common thread was that if the firmware was updated and the latest AU was used, the error was indentified more accurately - in one case the person changed their Apple ID and the error went away - anyway, I hope some of this is helpful.

Blinking Orange Lights

Here's the story:
Bought a brand new 1GB iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen yesterday. I plug it in and I get blinking orange lights that, according to Apple, means Do Not Disconnect. When iTunes FINALLY opens, it shows that the iPod is syncing. It takes forever to sync and slows down iTunes and any other system folders running in the background (i.e. My Documents, My Computer, etc.) I've kept it on the dock all night, thinking maybe that the thing was simply recharging or something, but still the same problems as the night before.
I've tried resetting the computer, I've tried re-installing iTunes and updating to latest version, I've tried changing the USB ports, I've tried updating all drivers, I've even tried updating all Windows XP components, and nothing seems to speed up the process. Is there anything else that I can do? This happens everytime the iPod is connected to the PC.

Update: When iTunes FINALLY responds and opens up, it shows that the Sync is complete, yet the iPod is still blinking orange and iTunes and everything else is still running at a delayed/snail's pace. I have to wait over 5 minutes for the programs and they finally respond.

My MacBook Pro has a faint blinking orange light on the charger but won't turn on, I've tried many different things to restart it but nothing works

My MacBook Pro has a faint blinking orange light on the charger but won't turn on, I've tried many different things to restart it but nothing works

The battery's probably drained and the power brick on the fritz. Unfortunately, if she won't start there's little we can do for software-based diagnosis. You'll have to take it in to a Store or Service Provider for assessment.

Consecutive blinking orange light.

On August 20 my phone shut it self off and would not turn on. I took the battery out and use a different charger from the original to see if my phone died. Nothing happened not even the led light came on. I wanted a while for about 2 to 3 hours to try to charge it again. LED light came on and 30 after i was able to turn my phone on again. Today after taking my phone from the charger my phone would not turn on. I tried taking the battery out and placing it back in,
tried to hard reset it, and waiting for a couple hours for before trying to charge the phone back up. But only my led light blinks orange three times then nothing for one minute. After that the orange led light blinks consecutively. I no longer have the original charger. Is there anyway to turn the phone back on or is the phone dead for good?

Please excuse me for not being clearer for the masses, demmo86rt. If you have TEC or the extended warranty, then your device can be replaced if needed beyond the 1 year manufacturer's warranty http://bit.ly/R00Us4.
D. Stewart, thanks for clarifying. There may be another option for you. We do have the Certified Pre Owned http://bit.ly/NTcxRW which may work for you.
You can also see if you qualify for the Device Payment Plan to get you a brand new phone http://bit.ly/12OcQ3y. As always, if you have an older phone you want to activate in the meantime, you can also do that.

Blinking orange light

I plugged my ipod in to charge it as i have done before. It does not seem to be charging it has been plugged in for three days and the orange light just keeps blinking. I am clueless on ipods and what to do. All I know is that you are not meant to disconnect it when the light is blinking....what should I do?

The status light will blink orange as long as your iPod is mounted as a volume on your computer.
Open iTunes and 'eject' the iPod from there. The status light will then stop blinking and turn to either steady orange or steady green.
If you don't use your iPod for data storage, you can set up iTunes to eject it automatically by deselecting the option "Enable disk use" in the iPod settings. However, this will only work when iTunes is running, so make sure that the option "Open iTunes when this iPod is connected" is selected.

Help with blinking ink light on printer

I have a office jet printer and my computer states my printer is out of ink. I replaced the ink cartridges and the printer continue to blink on the ink lights and when I try to send something to the printer it keeps saying the printer is out of ink. I have tried turning it off and tried taking the cartridges out. I just don't know what else to try? Any ideas

Hi @Cluelesst ,
Welcome to the HP forum.
I understand you are having a problem with your 6100 and ink cartridges. I would like to help you with this.
Try going through the following document.
An 'Ink Cartridge Problem' Error Message Displays on the Computer
I know you said it says the ink is empty, but it still could be misinterpreting the error from the printer.
Please let me know if that document works for you.
