Mac Volume and Sound Problem in newly installed Windows

Hi Friends,
I intalled the Windows 8 Developer Edition using Bootcamp 4.0
My Mac Volume/Hard Disk is not displayed in "My Computer". I read it will display the Volume in read-only mode. Can anyone help in making the Volume show on Windows?
The sound is also not working. Any work-around?
Thank you.
Regards,
Ragu

You are familiar with beta testing? Ever?
It is ah, "normal" for audio to not work on Mac running Windows until YOU install an audio driver.
AppleHFS.sys and AppleMNT.sys were buggy with Windows 7 3.0 and 3.1
If you want, see what Paragon HFS 9.5 $19 and ask Paragon-Software about whether you can beta test their HFS driver.
Their CampTune 9.5 was just updated to support Lion.
I would also call Lion 7.1 still in the "early" stage and not fully ready - give it a couple updates like every other OS X release - in the 'final candidate+' stage too. The Boot Camp 4 drivers for Windows are better now than they were in July but still some rough spots and things missing.
And there was a firmware update for the MBP just this week, and that model has been through 3-4 minor chip revisions to the motherboards, some of which deas with support and bugs with SATA 3 affecting SSD support.

    Did you download and install the Windows Support software? First step in Bootcamp Assistant is to download the support software. Then did you install the support software from within Windows?
    Read the Bootcamp Install instructions. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf

    That's often a permissions problem. Try launching Disk Utility and running the Repair Permissions. That may fix the problem. Also confirm that the Office 2011 folder is in the Applications folder at the root of the hard drive, not a folder within your wife's Home folder.
    If that doesn't help. post back with further details; your version of Mac OS X, whether you installed Office via a user account with admin privileges or not, and what happens when you try and launch Office from your account including error messages if any.
    Hope this helps.

    I've had the same issue and despite clearing the PRAM and powering on and off repeatedly this is what has (at least temporarily) resolved my issue:
    I've done this 3 times and sometimes it works right off the jump other times I've had to wait a bit and try again or power off and try again, once the start up screen is frozen hit Command : Option : Shift : Esc and a window should pop up "You restarted because of a problem..." from there you can go to your desktop. I haven't found an actual resolution to fix the problem but this does get you into your computer.

    Get a Virtual Macine software program, Parallels, VMware Fusion or VirtualBox, and install XP in a virtual machine.
    You can't install XP in a Boot Camp Partition with Lion or Mt Lion, only Win 7.

  • Problem updating newly installed Tiger (upgrading from 10.3.9)

    Hi,
    I'm having troubles updating my newly installed Tiger (10.4.3) to the newest version of it.
    I tried Software Update but after checking it says that I have the newest available software (which is not true), and when trying updating from the combo updates available at Apple website, I get the following screen:
    http://kaarlows.sites.uol.com.br/Fotos/update.jpg
    I've downloaded all combos, starting from 10.4.8 version until 10.4.4 one (which is the one I took the screenshot above), and all of them show the same error.
    I've already restarted the computer, repaired permissions, disconnected my external drives, and still couldn't update my operating system.
    I upgraded from Panther, version 10.3.9, using the option of “upgrade” with the Tiger installation DVD.
    Could somebody help me out here?
    Thanks;

    Did you run Disk First Aid repair on your boot volume
    with Disk First Aid repair via Disk Utility when
    booted from the Tiger install disc before proceeding
    with the installation and were all external
    peripheral devices except for a keyboard and mouse
    disconnected during the install?
    No, I didn't, and my external USB hard drive was connected to the Mac when I was updating.
    If no problems were reported by DFA repair, this
    probably won't make any difference but if there were
    problems reported that were successfully repaired, it
    might.
    Beside repairing disk, I also repaired permissions once again, and there were no problems reported.
    I restarted the computer, and still software update continued to say that I was up-to-date and the update combos I downloaded all showed the same error message from the screenshot above.
    Will I need to reinstall again Tiger? And will the option Archive and Install work even if I'm reinstalling again the same system?

  • Mac Mini and Internet Problems

    According to my re-install disks, which there are 2...I can put in 0S-9 or OSX 10.3.7. I believe currently that I am running the OSX 10.3.7. By the way, please be patient with me, I am relatively new to Macs. Anyway, this morning the internet was working perfectly. This afternoon, when I clicked on my Safari Icon, the Yahoo homepage will load about 75% and then it closes and I get an error message. I also sometimes use Netscape for ebay listings and it is doing the same thing. I called my ISP and my cable modem seems to be sending proper signals and he said it sounds like a computer issue. Through Internet explorer I am able to get on the Mac site and leave a post but this is far as I can go. Any help will be appreciated!
    God Bless!!!

    The Mac Mini (probably) won't boot natively to OS 9. The OS 9 disks are for what's called Classic Mode. It's for backwards compatibility for those of us who have older software we still want to run; it basically runs OS 9 within OS X. Since you are new to Macs, running old applications is probably not an issue for you, and you will save around 300 MB or so by not installing it.
    About your network problem:
    +Not all browsers and webpages are built to the same set of standards. Webpages built with Microsoft software tend to be especially notorious about not working with anything other than IE, but IE-Mac isn't up to the universal standards. I usually run Safari, but I have 4 browsers installed: Safari, Firefox (tends to be the most compatible, but I like Safari's interface better), IE, and Netscape (I use it for building simple html).
    +Sometimes weird problems are cause when the file permissions are messed up. Go to the folder /Applications/Utilities and run the application Disk Utility, then find the button that says "Repair Permissions" and click it.
    +Use the Software Update utility and download the latest updates. First download the 10.3.9 update all by itself, then any Security Updates, then others. You will be stuck rebooting more than once, so when you do this, make sure you have time to sit in front of your computer for awhile.

  • Windows 7 and Wireless Mighty Mouse, Wireless Keyboard and sound problem

    Hi,
    I just installed Windows 7 x64 Ultimate on my iMac 24" white ( OS X Leopard 10.5 ). Surprisingly, it installed without any problems. The only problems I have now are the Wireless Mighty Mouse and the Wireless Keyboard ( alu ).
    After I installed Windows I inserted the Leopard Instal DVD and installed Boot Camp. I got a message right away saying that: "This program has known compatibility issues...". I clicked Run program and continued. Soon I got the same warning, but this time not for Boot Camp, but Intel Chipset Device Software. I clicked Run program yet again and it continued installing. Then I got a different warning: "Service KeyAgent' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." I clicked Ignore and installation continued. I got another "Service Mac HAL' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." warning, clicked Ignore again and after that it finished soon and I restarted the computer.
    When I came back into Windows there was no Apple folder anywhere or any sign that I have just installed Boot Camp ( should there be? )
    I installed Boot Camp Update 2.1 for Windows XP ( because Vista x64 version wouldn't start ) and basically I got the same warnings I did when I installed Boot Camp from the Leopard DVD ( described above ). I also tried to instal Boot Camp Update 2.2 for Windows, but it didn't start. I also downloaded Bluetooth Update 1.0, but all I got was a message saying: "This update is not intended for this computer and will not be installed.".
    There is also no sound.
    This is basically it, I really hope some of you who run Windows 7 with wireless keyboards and mice can help me, because I desperately need this to work ( I use a Windows only program for school ).
    PS. I have a 2007 iMac 24" white and while it is not on the we're-not-supporting-that list for the infamous Windows 7 Boot Camp update, all other iMacs from its generation are. Any ideas?

    Found a solution for the "Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model" message. Here is the link: http://www.techulous.com/hardware/how-to-apple-boot-camp-64-bit-for-windows-7-on -unsupported-macs.html
    Everything works ( for ) now. Yay!

  • Satellite L750D - BIOS update 2.1 and sound problem

    Hello
    I have little problem. I have been downloaded from your website BIOS 2.1 for Toshiba Satellite L750D (PSK32E).
    I have been updated BIOS to 2.1 and start problem with sound. When I start game, music or something other only 2 first minutes sound plays properly but then it stops for no reason. No sound at all. I have been reinstalled op system but the problem is still there.
    Sound works for 2 minutes only then is completely off. Every start application with sound plays 2 minutes and stop all quiet is. I have made a probe on my mother laptop its a twin laptop. I have been updated bios same problem 2 minutes and then no sound. My operating system is win 8 pro 64 my mother laptop is with win 7 x64 premium.
    Two BIOS updated 2.1 ver on L750D and the problem is same. Please fix BIOS.

    The BIOS seems to be very old. I was released nearly 1.5 years ago so to be honest I doubt its and BIOS issue.
    I had the similar issue with my other notebook equipped with an Realtek sound card.
    The sound appeared again after plugging and removing the headphone jack
    But i could solve this installing the newest sound driver update from Realtek driver page.
    But it seems that your Satellite does not support Realtek sound chip but Conexant sound chip.
    Therefore the solution might not be useful for you.
    However, I think you need to update the sound driver.I recommend you to google for Conexant SmartAudio HD driver and to test the newest available driver version.
    In internet I could found the Conexant SmartAudio HD Driver version 8.65.9.51 for Win 7/ Win 8 / Win 8.1
    Not quite sure if this is the newest version but you can test it.
    In order to manually update your driver:
    1. Go to Device Manager (right click on My Computer, choose Manage and then find Device Manager in the left panel)
    2. Right click on the hardware device you wish to update and choose Update Driver Software
    3. Choose to select the location of the new driver manually and browse to the folder where you downloaded the driver

  • Windows driver for "Multimedia Controller" and sound problem

    Hi
    I installed Windows 8.1 using Bootcamp on my Macbook Air (Early 2014, Intel i5).
    Then I downloaded Bootcamp drivers from http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1720 and installed couple of them (wifi, intel chipset).
    When I check the Device Managmer I still get "Multimedia Controller" in "Other devices" without drivers.
    Beside that I think the sound is not working. I installed the Realtek sound driver. When I play sound file the volume bar in taskbar mixer is blinking but no sound is coming out : ).
    Please help.

    for multimedia controller if its onboard sound card use this drivers:
    http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/nForce/4.62/4.62_nforce_audio_winxp2k_international_whql.exe
    but based on both:
    multimedia controller

    think its external PCI device like TV tuner.

    Hi! I'm portuguese and I don't write to good.
    I have a problem with my bluetooth, after installing Windows Service Pack 2 and a Bios update.
    I have installed the Version 1.90 , after activating my bluetooth, the Notebook shut's down.
    After rebooting of the laptop, the sound and usb connections were gone to, what can I do ?
    The Notebook is a Satellite P10-221
    [Edited by: Forum Moderation]

    Hi,
    At first I would re-install the chipset drivers for your Notebook.
    After that Uninstall the Bluetooth Stack and re-install it also.
    There is also a Information Sheet for download available to get information about new drivers for Service Pack 2. Look at http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
    Config free (4.90.57) and PC Diagnostic Tool (3.0.6) are available for Windows XP Service 2 Users.

  • Newly installed Windows XP and iTunes on old PC, pls help.

    I had to reinstall Windows XP and iTunes on my old PC. Will I lose everything once I connect my ipod 30g? If so, what can I do to prevent it?
    And if possible, can I transfer songs from my ipod to the newly installed iTunes?

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    iRepo Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • No Battery Charge and Other Problems After OS3 Install - Solution?

    This relates ONLY to iPhone Users using the "PUSH" Function for Email or Other Apps!
    PROBLEM: It seems as though Apple is at least aware of the problem(s), i.e. once Exchange Email or another App using PUSH is configured, there is an OS3 bug that seems to be hardware independent (impacting ALL 1G, 2G and GS iPhones, but not consistently).
    SYMPTOMS: Include some or all of the following . . . rapid discharge (less than two hours from a fully charged phone, failure to charge (by AC adapter or USB to computer), failure to charge completely, perpetual dead battery icon, inability to boot, inability to automatically sleep, quite warm on upper back side, slow email, indication of a full or partially full charge dropping to no charge or dead when removed from charging source.
    CAUSE: OS3 Bug prevents consistent charging, draining the battery even when plugged in to a computer via the USB or into an A/C adapter (although I've been able to intermittently charge on an A/C adapter). In push mode, the Exchange email client on the iPhone continually queries the Exchange Server, cycling the iPhone CPU and continually draining the battery at a high rate (can
    WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD BY APPLE:
    1) Defective Hardware (though I'm on my third 3G in a week, so I don't think hardware is the problem . . . Apple will consider replacement with a new 3G if my third 3G has the same problem)
    2) Corrupted App in iTunes - so I manually reloaded each app directly over wi-fi, one app at a time, this worked until I configured Exchange Email, at which time symptoms immediately appeared . . . so corrupted app unlikely.
    3) Initial data transfer after email configuration . . . but symptoms continued long after this.
    4) Wi-Fi - but turning wi-fi on or off had little effect, beyond normal.
    5) Restore to New Phone - this works fine UNTIL Exchange Email is configured and activated. Thus, the time consuming practice of reload all apps, photos, music, etc. will be for naught, once exchange email is turned on with "push"
    SOLUTION: Turning off "push" on your exchange email account
    1) Go to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars - Fetch New Data
    2) Set Fetch Setting to 15 minutes to approximate the much more frequent "push" uploads and downloads. NOTE: Turning off \"push\" at this level will NOT turn off push on your exchange email account and the problem will not be resolved
    3) Scroll down and select - Advanced -
    4) Identify and select your Exchange Server account
    5) Select - Fetch -
    6) Leave settings
    Phone should cool down in a few minutes and work normally. The problem can be replicated and resolved repeatedly merely by toggling "push" on and off in your exchange email configuration.
    I was told that this is likely to be the "fix" until a patch is issued. No time frame was given for an actual fix that allows Exchange users to use push technology. Disappointing, since broader use of "push" technology beyond exchange was one of the big benefits of OS 3.0.
    NOTE: THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT OCCUR ON ALL iPHONES WITH OS3 USING THE EXCHANGE CLIENT. I have second 3G phone, identically configured (including push to exchange email) that has no symptoms at all. Go figure.

    Since two days ago, my battery indicator has been indicating 100% until the phone dies, which seems to be one of the symptoms you're describing.
    However, I don't use Push emails; my email client is configured to poll an imap server and has been that way since I got my phone over 6 months ago. To be on the safe side, I turned off Push anyway, but I'm still having the problem. Definitely 3.0 related as I've never had this problem before.
    Perhaps it's linked to an app? Personally I don't have a whole lot of them installed: Aurora Feint, fstream, twitterific, flixster, wikipanion, google earth, urbanspoon, STM Mobile, iDicto, Air Sharing, Facebook and Apple Remote. I've removed a few and will see how it goes.
