Media offline with new drive

Hi everyone. Lat night I bought a Free Agent Pro external hard drive. My old drive was getting filled so I transferred some files to my new drive which only mainly consisted of audio files. The hard drive only came with a USB wire btw. So when i went to launch final cut it had some media off line files, so i did the standard... file... reconnect media, and it found the file but when I hit ok to import it FCP shut down. It did it several times. Is this because I'm using the USB and not the fire wire? It also has a eSATA port on the drive, but it didn't come with the cable. Which is the correct one that I should be using? USB or eSATA?

New MacBook Pro? 17" MacBook Pro? Do you have a slot that can be used for eSATA? If so, use it. Otherwise get rid of the drive. What's your video format anyway?

Creative Smart Recorder with new driver

'Creative Smart Recorder with new driver< I have a Sound Blaster Audigy 2v purchased and installed in Oct, 2005. I use the Smart Recorder a lot and all was fine until two weeks ago when I downloaded and installed new driver software from Creative. All of the rest of the software works fine (no change or improvement in the operation in the card, which is why I went for the new driver), but?now when I try to start the ?Smart Recorder I get a Windows message "Creative Smart Recofder has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."? It asks if I want to Send Error Report. As far as I can tell Smart Recorder never opened. Other than putting my computer back into the what it was two weeks ago is there anything that I can do? I'm not sure that the previous driver, etc. is still there. Thank you.

+ Need to add something. I thought that if a program loaded I was okay. But, no. The media studio will load but is no longer connected, I mean nothing will record, not from the internet or the CD player. No connection. Whatever Creative gave me, it is not friendly with older versions of the software.

If you have installed a new hard drive , you will need to have formatted it in Disk Utility correctly. This may explain your problem.
Boot into your 10.6 Install disk again at the top menubar > Utilities > select Disk utility and in there select your new hard drive, and select the tab Erase and choose to make the format as Mac OS Extended Journaled. When that is finished look in the main window to make sure that the partition map scheme says GUID Partition Table.
Now go to the Restore tab and reinstall from your backup.

Trouble capturing with new drive

I recently purchased a CalDigit 2TB external drive to capture media. When I try to capture from HDV or DV tape, I get dropped frame errors. In 10 years with working in Final Cut, this has never been a problem. Now live capturing is problematic. hit or miss. Ingesting AVCHD files is no problem cause it isn't real time. Even doing "Capture Now" presents dropped frame errors. At first, I was able to capture from tape with this new drive no problem.
Someone said that journaling on the new drive could be the issue. What the heck is journaling and should it be set to On or Off when capturing video?
FCS 6
iMac
Intel Core Duo
2.4GHz
2 gig ram.
Cal Digit drive is at the end of a 25ft FW cable in another room - never been an issue before.
Thanks

Never thought about that... (and the next time a get new hd, will do that)...
Shane, (or anyone else for that matter) do you know if it is possible to remove the hard drive from an external hard drive and replace it?
The other day I gave my old G-drive to my dad to dismantle (he likes doing that sort of thing) and low and behold, he opened it up and it looks like you could just plug in any internal hard drive... In fact I did just that. However, I had already thrown out the power cord... so I cannot test it. lol, oh well. If this is possible, I will try and purchase a new power cord...

Hard drive crashed... How to sync Iphone with New Drive?

My hard drive crashed on my Macbook, I installed a new drive... How to I sync my Iphone without loosing applications, photos, pix,movies and contacts?

You should have a back-up of important info/music/pix/etc on an external source fro this very reason.
The iphone is not a storage device.
Assuming you don't back-up your info:
I think you can re-download Apps from the same itunes account.
Itunes purchased music can be transferred with iphone attached - in itunes click File>Transfer Purchases.
Pix can be e-mailed to yourself one at a time. The photos are optimized for viewing on iphone and will be of much lower quality than the original.
If you enter at least one contact and calendar entry in your computer, before syncing, you will get the option to merge.
The pic and music sync is one-way, computer to iphone.
Unless you can find a 3rd party app that you can trust, the rest is lost.
This would be a good time to begin backing up your important info.

Migrating old information to new laptop with new drive

I tried searching for this but also wanted a specific answer.
Here's what happened: my old Macbook (first version, from 2006) failed, but I had all its information backed up on to a Time Machine drive. The drive was a firewire drive. When my 2006-era Macbook failed, I bought a new one. However, the new laptop did not have a firewire port. I used the laptop for a few months until I could afford a new, USB external drive. Now, I've got the new computer (with some new information but no firewire port), my old firewire hard drive -- with info, and a new USB hard drive, that is completely blank.
What I intended to do was find a Mac at my university's library with both a USB and firewire drive and copy all the information to my new drive from the old one. From that point, can I just use migration assistant to merge my new Macbook and the old Macbook's information? Will it make more sense to load any new documents on my Macbook onto a flash drive, wipe its hard drive, and restore from the old Time Machine backup then add the information from the flash drive?
I don't want to have two separate accounts, either.
Thanks for your help with this annoying dilemma! I miss all my old music, photos, and videos...

Thanks for the information. Instead of using a flash drive, would it work for me to partition the drive and place any new information on the second partition of my external hard drive?
Sure (if there's room). See #3 in [Formatting, Partitioning, Verifying, and Repairing Disks|http://web.me.com/pondini/AppleTips/DU.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of the +Using Snow Leopard+ forum).
If there isn't enough room to make the partition, but enough total space, you can put the files in the same partition as your backups.
You must be careful, though, as that isn't generally a good idea. You must leave enough room for Time Machine to operate; it doesn't need a lot, perhaps a hundred MBs, but if you fill it past that, your backups will crash before they can start deleting old backups to make room for new ones.
Similarly, do not add anything that way while a backup is running.
And, be very careful not to move, change, or delete anything in your backups via the Finder, as that can corrupt them.

Line-in not working with new driv

Has anyone else had issues with the line-in jack not working with new drivers? Is there a way to get it to work??Very frustrated. Is there a link to the beta drivers, they worked better for me then the new one.

The line input on the mini requires a 'line-level' signal, so the only microphones that work are ones that have an amplified output. Standard mics don't generate enough voltage to drive the mini's amplifiers.
That's the reason the mics work with the Griffin device (it has an amplifier) but not the mini directly.

Audigy-2 ZS Platinum Application problems with New driv

All the issues you guys are talking about have been reported in beta stage of these new drivers. I would say none of them has been fixed yet. The only solution for now is to use previous drivers which work fine or use some modified drivers which fixes some issues, but not all. Your choice.

Trying to replace my current home drive with new drive

Trying to clone home drive to new drive and this is the error I receive. Source volume is read-write and cannot be unmounted, so it can't be block copied.

You are using Carbon Copy Cloner? maybe you need to boot from another system clone you made, or using Recovery Mode and Disk Utility?
I always keep a separate special emergency-maintenance boot drive in addition to having a working system drive; a clone of the working system (at a minimum)
That way I can also have 10.7.4 and 10.7.5 or Lion and Mountain Lion if needed.
Have you got other drives, internal and external, and tried removing those?
A safe boot should of course work.
Might include more details

Attention with new Driver 2.15.0006 / Bug

This driver is very buggy and includes 2 phenomens:
-When 96 KHz Output Sampling Rate is set, only 88.2KHz is comming to the receiver (Entertainment Mode)
-When using ASIO the creative pannel is hanging after a short time. No system reboot is possible, only the trick with the reset switch is working :-)
I have restored my system from image, because reinstalling the old driver is not working directly - only with a stressy workarround.
[color="#ff0000"]Don't use this driver when you are using ASIO and/or digital output.
Checked on XP x64, 6 GB RAM (there is no 4GB problem even with the driver from year 2006), Elite Pro...

This is a good thread, if we keep all the driver issues, and workarounds in this thread it may help us in someway, as containing the feedback stops the CL guys from trawling through multiple threads.
I have been testing this Driver on 2 different OS' XP 32 and Vista x64 with SP. I have not found any issues except for some reason my "Decoding" tab is greyed out. I am not sure whether this was caused by the firmware upgrade or whether the driver does not support decoding (in XP and x64) due to perhaps some upcoming application release from CL.
Intel Extreme QX9650 45nm 2MB Cache
4GB of Patriot DDR3 LL CL7 600Mhz RAM
ASUS P5E3 BIOS
nVidia 8800GTS 52MB (G92)
Creative Labs X-Fi Fatalty
Seagate SATA-II 7200. 500GB with latest Firmware.
Pioneer 22-BK with latest Firmware
Enermax 720W PSU?
Windows XP Pro SP2/Windows Vista Ultimate x64?SP
Now, everything game wise and MP3 wise seems fine on both OS' except for Crysis which has some horrid sound delay and crackle issues on some parts of the game. I am told that this issue relates to a bug with the game as many people have this issue with their onboard sound to.
Decoder options are greyed out/disabled on both OS', it used to work on XP using the 2.09.007 driver.
I will do some more testing and keep you guys updated. PS It's good to see the crystaliser setting is fixed (now it does not always force to 60 or so % each time you turn it on as it now remembers your setting).
Keep the feedback coming.

I've moved my iTunes media to a new drive, how do I get iTunes to find it. I'm using Windows 7

Hi,
I've moved my iTunes media to my 'spare' internal D Drive, following the instructions on this link:(I'm using Windows 7).
Move your iTunes Media folder on a Windows PC - Apple Support
I hit a problem at stage 11 when I had to move my original media file to the recycle bin. The process started then it stopped, saying that the file was too big for the recycle bin (54 GB or thereabouts). It then asked if I wanted to permanently delete the files instead. I said yes. (I have them backed up externally).
The iTunes media file is in my D Drive, but I can't get iTunes to locate it. I've tried going through preferences/advanced and browsing to it but that does't seem to work.
My media is all listed in iTunes, but on the cloud rather than on my hard drive (C). Downloading it all from the cloud would defeat the object of freeing space on my primary hard drive (C).
Any ideas on how I could get iTunes to find the files on D Drive ?
many thanks,
Matt

See Make a split library portable. With luck you should be able to move the iTunes folder to the D: drive, place the iTunes Media folder inside it, and shift-start iTunes to connect to D:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl. If all goes well it should be as if you'd moved the entire iTunes folder as a unit in the first place.

Selective Time Machine Restore with new drive?

I have a late 2011 MBP. Running an OCZ Octane drive which is not compatible with ML. Want to upgrade to ML from Lion.
I have a TM setup with a backup of the internal 128 GB drive, of which I'm using about 40 GB of, and my external 750 GB drive, on to a 2TB TM disk.
If I do a final back, shut down, swap the drive for a new SSD, and boot to restore from TM, will it balk since the TM backup is in fact much larger than the 128 GB SSD that I just put in? TM would be around 600GB total. OR, can I just have it perform the backup of the original 128 GB drive, and not bother with the external 750 GB drive?

I'm in the same situation as the original poster, the leopard DVD is at work, and on a Saturday my laptop crashed. I get this "Unable to load XIPanel_RestoreIntroduction nib file" error and I'd like to know if others have been able to:
1) understand what this message is about, e.g. are there additional checks in the nib file or is it just not found?
2) work around the issue one way or another.
Apple making computers -- deterministic creatures of all, and not casinos I'm not fully satisfied with the idea that this is a gamble to work around the issue. Unless of course there is a list of "other issues" that's been published somewhere in which case I'll be grateful to not embark on a useless and ultimately doomed effort to get my mac to work.

Cannot connect wirelessly to HP Photosmart C4380 with new driver/software

I have been using my HP Photosmart C4380 for years without a problem. I've upgraded to OS X Yosemite v.10.10.4 and with that I regularly do automatic driver updates through the Apple Software Update. Recently my wireless connection to the printer stopped working. In the past I simply reconnected it via USB and ran the Network Wizard Setup app to reconnect it to the network. I can't seem to find that app anymore with the new software updates. I've tried configuring it through the new HP Utility app to no avail. The Setup New Device and HP Auto Wireless Connect options cannot locate my printer unless connected to USB and will not give me an option to configure the network settings. I have referenced http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04510394/ also with no luck. The printer does not have a Wireless Wizard Setup on it's LCD options as per Step 1 under the wireless connection instructions. And the WPS option in Step 2 does not work becuase the wifi button on the printer only brings up the Network menu where my only options are to turn the wireless radio on/off and to print a configuration page. There are no options to connect to a network. Connecting the printer to my laptop via USB works in a pinch if I need to print something, but I'd like to not be tethered to it and restore my wifi connection which used to work in the past.

I reset the printing system. Still not having any luck. I can only get my printer as far as a temporary 169.254.207.168 IP address. That brings me to this page with two tabs. In this tab, I'm able to change the SSID to my network and add the WEP. I've tried both Infrastructure and Ad Hoc (since I didn't know which to use) but both have not been successful. The page times out after awhile and I click my wifi setting to check the connection. I can then connect to my printer whose name has changed from hpsetup to my network name...but is still listed under devices. So I click on that device and run another newtork config page and I still get the same 169.254.207.168 IP address. So then I tried two things:1. Switching over to my actual wifi network with the name network name. This does not read my printer anymore and I get an 0.0.0.0 IP address2. While connected to the network listed under devices, I tried adding the Printer in my Printer & Scanner settings. This works and prints, but only when connected under the devices wifi, and not my normal wifi. When I switch to my normal wifi and try to print, it can no longer find the printer. I seem to be having trouble getting an 192.168 IP address for my printer so that it can read on my normal Wifi network without being listed as just a device....
