"Loading Device List" Freeze

When I connect up my Casio EX-S600 camera to my computer, Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 automatically launches the photo downloader. However, the screen shows the words "Loading Device List" but does nothing and freezes. I have to go into System Manager to kill it.
My wife has the same camera and it does the same with hers.
I have re-installed APASE V3.2 and this has not cured it. I have looked through the questions and answers on the forum and have seen folks having a similar problem but no definitive answer to it. I have seen it suggested that it is something to do with "Preferences" but when I try to go into this part of the software, it also freezes.
I have also gone into the Customer Support part of the web-site and followed the steps suggested there, again with no result.
I have upgraded the software on the camera to the latest version, again with no result.
I believe the problem arose at the same time as I upgraded to APASE V3.2
Any suggestions?

Hi Jim,
Thanks for your reply.
I use Norton System Works and Norton Internet Security. Firstly, I disabled every Norton component that I could. The APASE software still freezes. Secondly, just to be sure, I uninstalled Norton completely but still the APASE software freezes. I have now reinstalled Norton and all the required upgrades (which took a few days!) and still the APASE "loading device list" freezes.
"My Computer" shows the camera and I can transfer photos to "My Photos" from the camera and then use APASE to "get photos from file" but this is an unsatisfactory "get round" really.
Incidentally, I have just bought a Summit Photofix copier with Photoimpression 6.0 to copy negatives onto my hard drive. When I open the software and try to transfer an image, "Windows XP encounters a problem" and closes the software. I haven't solved this one yet but it may be related. I have also tried to re-load this software, including when Norton was uninstalled, but it hasn't helped the problem.
Regards - Derek.

Photo Downloader freezes when loading device list

I'm using Bridge 2.1.1.9 on a Mac running 10.5.4. Recently, when I connect a Nikon camera to transfer photos, the Adobe Photo Downloader freezes after displaying a "Loading device list" message. I have to Force Quit the Photo Downloader to get out of this situation. I tried unchecking the Bridge Preference for "When a Camera is connected, launch Adobe Photo Downloader", and manually choosing File > Get Photos from Camera, but Photo Downloader still freezes.
This process used to work perfectly. I don't know what has changed to cause it to break. When the camera is connected to the Mac, the Mac does recognize the camera and presents its disk image on the Desktop.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Andrew:
>Here's hoping Apple and/or Adobe fixes this issue someday soon, though
It is not an Apple or Adobe issue, it can happen with every platform in every application. It is more an issue that the camera picks up something that it should not or it hesitates due to power malfunction or you name it ...
There are a lot of types in camera's and even each brand has a different software version for a newer type. The card reader route is safer and also faster as Andy already pointed out.
Also after backing up raw files and converting to DNG check if the previews are working good in Bridge and after that you should format the CF card each time in the camera itself instead of deleting all or format in the computer.
And changing your workflow is also a good thing to try, every upgrade for an application has newer functions that require a new approach. I can assure you that a new approach for an old habit can be very productive :-)

I have the same problem with new late 2013 Retina 15" Mac Book Pro and Bridge CS6. With older Mid-2010-mac Book Pro it was running OK. In both cases was used the built-in card reader. Any solution?

No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

IPad 1 3G in India - Unable to load network list

I am using iPad 1 - 3G in India (Pune) for past a few months. It was working properly using a cropped BSNL 3G sim. Even in roaming I had no issues.
A few days back it first started showing only EDGE instead of 3G and now it has stopped communicating using cellular network. I get the error that "Unable to load network list". WiFi works fine. Now I have upgraded to iOS 4.3.5 (that is after the 3G stopped working).
I was under the impression that iPads are not bound to any cellular provider but there seems to be something that I do not know about Apple devices. I am new to Apple devices and have not used any before this iPad.
Any help will be appreciated.

Hi there,
I had kind of the same thing where i would arrive abroad or back in the UK after being abroad and my iPhone would take 20-30 minutes to get a signal and when loading up network selection would always get unable to display message.
Had phone replaced by apple and the issue hasnt occured in the once ive been abroad since - connected pretty much straight away.
Just wondering if you are having the issue of delayed text messages where people text you and sometimes it takes 30mins-few hours to get delivered to your phone. Or the issue of people sometimes call you and you good signal and it goes straight to voicemail??

To make sure it is not firmware related, set it up as new device: How to set up your iPhone or iPod touch as a new device without using a backup.
If still no change after that, you should get it serviced or looked at by visiting an Apple Store: Apple - Support - Service Answer Center

Ipod classic has been wiped. cannot see it on the 'device list' in my itunes. I have tried restoring to factory settings and reloading...it reloads some of the music, but when I plug the Ipod back in, it wipes it again.

Make sure your headphones are plugged in all the way, meaning you cannot see any of the silver still showing from the headphone's plug.
A feature of the Nano is to put it to sleep when the display goes out and it does not detect any headphones.

How I fixed my Apple TV dissappearing from my iTunes Device List

For those looking for a magic cureall you won't find it here.
The long and short of the matter, the problem was on my end. Specifically an element of my ethernet's driver configuration utility wasn't loading properly. So, the AppleTV would show up in my device list and then dissappear after about 5 minutes and the only way to get it to show back up in my itunes device list is to cycle the power on the AppleTV. Unfortunately doing this would cause the same dissappearing AppleTV out of my iTunes device list.
I'm one of those fools that bought that KillerNIC overpriced ethernet card and I had disabled the killernic tray application. As I recall I had some issues with my initial windows install and had to disable it to keep the computer from rebooting constantly. When I fired up msconfig and had teh tray application launch when windows boots up then the AppleTV showed up in my device list and everything was fine and is still fine.
I spent about 2 hours on the phone with Apple tech support, who were as helpful as they could be when the problem was on my end. They even transfered me to one of their product specialists and he had some suggestions, but we soon realized the problem wasn't with the AppleTV, but something on my end.
A few things to try, that the Apple tech reccomended:
-If you are connected with a wired ethernet, then plug the AppleTV directly into your computer (PC or Mac) with the ethernet cables. The ethernet jack on the AppleTV is autonegotiating so you don't need a crossover cable. We tried this on my PC and the AppleTV didn't show up in my device list. But when we tried doing this on my Macbook the AppleTV showed up just fine. Which showed both myself and the Apple tech that all is well with the AppleTV, but something in my configuration was amiss.
Don't waste your time on port mapping or port forwarding or any of that business, since the AppleTV is behind the firewall those sorts of things are not going to affect the AppleTV. Now the tech did say that some routers are flakier then others and a setting change or two might cause the AppleTV to stop working. His suggestion was to save my current setting and reset the router to default settings. Do not revert the firmware to an earlier version, but put the router settings for the current firmware into a default state. I know this is tedious, but if you are as frustrated as I was a few hours ago, then any suggestion to try is helpful.
For the record here is my system and network stuff:
router: Dlink DGL-4300 (V1.8)
ethernet: Bigfoot Networks KillerNIC (v3.1.2.3)
OS: WinXP (but the tech didn't think that the OS was the issue)
I guess the moral of the story is why did it work and what changed to make it stop working? I was 100% convinced that an iTunes update caused teh problem to fail, because heck it was working once and now it doesn't work and I forgot that one bit that made my setup nonstandard (the missing tray application).
Now this might not help anyone but me, but just on the off chance that someone else out there has more money then sense, bought an overpriced ethernet adapter, disabled the tray application, and is now having problems with dissappearing devices. Well, do I have a solution to your problems.

It's not a matter of unpairing it from the iMac. You need to pair your iMacs remote to it and the ATV remote to the ATV. If you don't pair you iMac to it's remote, then the ATV remote will always be able to activate it, even if the ATV's remote is paired to the ATV (and vice versa).
In case you don't know how to pair the remote. Hold the remote aout 3" from the iMac and hold the menu and next buttons down for about 5 seconds. You will see a linked chain on your screen once there are paired.

Syncing shouldn't trouch you photos unless you have photos in a Photo Library album. These would be photos that were synced to your phone from your computer. If you do have any, you'll need to use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your computer prior to syncing.
If you prefer to backup your camera roll photos prior to syncing, open iTunes and go to Preferences>Devices and check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". Then connect your phone to your computer and import them as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Then, to minimize data loss, follow the steps in this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141. To follow the steps, first open iTunes and go to View>Show Sidebar. Also, Transfer Purchases is now located in File>Devices.

Every time i sync in my music in my iphone 5 it would have to back up my iphone and every time i back up the loading bar would freeze then my itunes with crash pls help my iphone 5 coat a lot from my savings

Syncing requires a backup as part of the sync process.
Delete any existing backups in iTunes under Edit > Preferences > Devices (or simply move them to a different folder on the computer) then try a backup or sync.

Re-installed OS X 10.4, now AppleTV will not display in device list

I recently re-installed OS X Tiger on my PB 12". I restored the iTunes library, but am unable to find the AppleTV in the devices list. I removed the connection to iTunes from the previous OS install, but it still doesn't display. I am wary to completely reset the AppleTV, because I have two movies downloaded that we haven't watched yet. Will they remain in the download list so they can download again if I do completely reset the AppleTV?

Well, that isn't the globe I was hoping for. What you see is the spinning colored ball, that means your Mac is still processing (in this case hung).
Did you try starting in Safe Mode? Did that work?
Did you run Repair Disk from your DVD? Did that work?
What makes you think your drive is failing? One more thing you should try is running is Apple Hardware Test:
If CD's came with your computer it is on a CD labeled "Hardware Test" To test with CD, insert the CD and restart holding the "c" key until you see the spinning gear.
If DVD insert DVD then:
1. Turn on or restart the computer.
2. Immediately press and hold the Option key. After a few seconds, the Startup Manger screen appearsThe Startup Manager scans for available volumes.
3. Optional: Clicking the circular arrow rescans for other volumes, including NetBoot Server volumes. You can eject any disc in the drive or open an empty tray-loading drive by holding down the Command (Apple) and Period (.) keys. The Command-Period key combination will also close the drive. After inserting a CD capable of starting up your computer, you could rescan for volumes.
4. Click the startup volume you want to use. "Hardware Test"
If hardware test does not mount or does not run bring the computer to Authorized Apple Repair.
