Memory no longer recognized after 10.4.5

I have somehow lost memory in my iMac. System Profiler reports that the memory slot is empty, but I used to have a 512mb in the slot. I noticed a very pronounced system slowdown in the last few days, the only recent change being the upgrade to 10.4.5. Can this be a software/firmware related problem or do I have a hardware problem that requires a visit to the shop?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5) 17" 1GHz flat panel iMac

Yeah, I'd completely forgotten about the hardware test disk... Well it found an error but Apple told me to take it in to a repair shop anyway. I did manage to get the memory back by removing the DIMM and replacing it, but it lasted only about a minute before freezing up the iMac and vanishing again. I think I will buy a new DIMM and see if that is the problem before hauling the iMac into the shop for two weeks.
It seems that the upgrade is not the problem. Thanks for your help.

Firewire drive no longer recognized after upgrade?

having an onset of problems the last 2 weeks.
first upgraded to 10.4.6 on mac mini 1.42 non-duo, worked a few days than acted weird with apps crashing. had to reinstall from 10.4 disk. seemed ok. repaired permissions, ect. after reinstall (and a subsequent power outage) a firewire drive attached at time was no longer recognized by mac mini or connected imacG3. reinstalled 10.4.2 on mac mini. installer unable to reinstall 10.4.6., I would like to have firewire drive recognized again. when attached to other firewire drive in daisy chain, says device unrecognized, other wise unable to get any info on drive. what to do?

I am having nearly the exact same issue as you are experiencing. My Western Digital Dual-Option Media Center 160 GB FW HD is going in and out big time. It seems to be there for a time but then conks out. I have to disconnect the power and now the drive seems to be malfunctioning.
Same story with my LaCie 52x CD Burner. I placed the Disk Warrior CD in there and the computer recognized the disc at first but then spinning beach balls galore!
This has to be one of the worst updates to an OS X system I can remember. I can only think PowerPC QA testing has gone through the toilet since the Intel move was completed.

My Local Adjustment Brushes no longer recognized after LR 4.3 update

After running 4.3 update, my local adjsutment brushes are no longer recognized and appearing in the Lightroom GUI. They are all still located under 'Lightroom' folder --> 'Local Adjustment Brushes' folder (nothing has changed and I see all files are still there in Finder), but no matter how many times I've restarted LR, they are not showing up in the GUI.
Please advise ASAP!! Thank you

It's not clear from your initial problem description, but are you talking about local adjustment presets that you have created yourself (i.e. user presets), or are you talking about the standard presets supplied by Lightroom (Burn, Dodge, Soften Skin, etc)?
If it's the latter, go to Preferences>Presets Tab and click on "Restore Local Adjustment Presets".

IPod Nano 3G lo longer recognized after Update to iTunes 9 on Vista 32 Ulti

So i updatedt to iTunes 9 yesterday - only to find out that my iPod 3G is no longer recognized by iTunes. Also my 2G are not recognized any longer on this machine
ALL three iPods still work fine with my other computer whicgh is running the same Windows version but has still iTunes 8 installed.
With the IPod service disabled the iPods appear properly as a device - they show their assigned name and you can browse the content.
When the service is enabled and you start iTunes iTunes displays a message that says that it "discoveerd" the iPod but could not identify it
see heer http://0711.diy-punk.net/WOW/ipodfu.jpg
also as soon as iTunes gets involved the device is no longerreadable under Windows
i tried multiple reboots, restart of iPod service, rebooted the iPod, resetted the iPod - nothing helps...

Yeah... I hope apple solves this problem soon. =\
I use Windows XP instead of Vista...
This happened to me:
I plugged my iPod
Oppened the iTunes, iTunes recognized the iPod with all the songs, album covers, playlists, etc.
It asked for update. (Download & Instal, ok)
Finished the update, oppened the iTunes 9.0. Added a new songs but then I realized it didn't recognize the iPod (wich was plugged.)
I checked on "My computer" and I saw "iPod". Ok.
When I ejected the iPod it was clean. No musics, no Videos, no playlists. Started on the screen "Select your language".
I Tried reinstaling the iTunes but whenever I got an older version it said something like "The iTunes can't be started because the iTunes library has been generated by a new version."
Restarted my PC several times.
Rebooted the iPod.
Tried switching USBs.
NOTHING works.
Nothing at all.
even tryed the manage thing on "My Computer".
If they don't find a way of fixing this bug my iPod Nano is not better than a f**kin' Pendrive... ~.~"
Hope apple do something...

USB Hard Drive no longer recognized after SW Update

I just updated Cisco software and my external hard drive is no longer recognized by Cisco. It is a Seagate drive that is listed on the Cisco tested - passed - approved list. It worked prior to this update. I have disconnected the drive. Reconnected it. Rebooted. Turned machine and router on and off and its still not recognized. Any ideas? Thank you, Jim S.

GTX 680 - No longer recognized after power outage, fans on 100%

As the title says, we had a power outage (not a surge, no breakers were tripped, and surge protector didn't trip either) that lasted about 10 seconds. When I rebooted, my card was no longer recognized, and the fans are spinning at full speed.
Hopefully there's a fix, as I can't RMA the card any longer (newegg 30 day limit passed, and I can't fork up another $500 for a replacement)
The card isn't being recognized in my BIOS (and not with any other tool on windows/nix either). It's only drawing about 0.15v according to the BIOS, so I think maybe it's burned out.
Any ideas? Suggestions?
Help is appreciated.

try in another PCI-E slot then, else find a way to test it in another computer
Tested it in all 3 PCI-e slots. I'll have to figure out a way to rebuild another rig I guess.
Edit; no way possible to run it in another rig. I don't have the CPU for the old 775 socket board.
I'm not sure why all my other cards would work (460 GTX, 260 GTX, 8800), but this one is stuck on max fan speed, and can't be detected. I'm pretty much stuck with the idea that the card is dead, and needs to be replaced.

Internal domain no longer recognized after 10.4.9 update

I'm using OS X server to host Mac, Winblows and Web servers.
We HAD an internal domain, "Merc-Server", providing access to these services that we could access before I updated and rebooted the server to 10.4.9.
The server is on our local net at 113.128.162.82
After the reboot, it moved to 113.128.162.87
So on another mac, and on Windows, you could type in the following and connect to the server:
http://merc-sever/
afp://Merc-Server/
afp://merc-server/
On windows in search, mercury-server
Now, none of these can be found.
What happened?
Any clue as what I need to do to turn these resources back on?
Argh!
Thanks,

I noted a similar problem (except for the ip change) as well and it threw me for a loop for a while this weekend, but I think I discovered the problem. looking into the named.log in /library/logs, I found items like the following:
17-Mar-2007 16:19:20.173 mydomain.com.zone:25: gc._msdcs.mydomain.com: bad owner name (check-names)
googling a bit I found this link:
http://readlist.com/lists/isc.org/bind9-users/0/621.html
where it is discussed that bind 9.3.x is more restrictive on names. Sure enough, the log line above referenced one of my A entries. This somehow seemed to lead to my domain no longer being locally resolvable as dns simply died. As soon as I edited the offending name, removing the underscore, and everything seems back to normal. Oddly, this had never been a problem. Additionally, this canonical entry had never caused a problem. It was one of several I hand edited into my zone file to make my Windows XP systems happy about single sign-on authentication to both our xServe acting as PDC and our Windows Server 2003 which I didn't want to run directory services on. The SRV records didn't seem to give any problems and so far the XP boxes don't seem to care. I wonder what change there might have been.

Videos and movies no longer recognized after AP 3.3.2 restore

I had to restore my entire hard disk due to corruption by Apple's iPhotoLibrary Upgrader utility. After a Time Machine restore (suggested by Apple Support), I realized that I did not backup the AP3 application. I got out my original AP3 install DVD, installed it, then upgraded it thru Software Update to vs 3.3.2.
After spending a day reconnecting my images to their references and updating the previews, I realized that my movie/video files are no longer playable in AP3.
The movie thumbnail appears distorted. Clicking on it opens the Viewer, but no movie appears. When I select 'Show in Finder' for a movie, the master file is correctly shown. The Master file is fine, it plays in Quicktime just fine.
I tried to reonnect the video files, but they have 'Online' status and the reconnection accomplishes nothing. I did note that when I go into the reconnect panel, I cannot see any movies in the bottom window, just jpegs and raw image files.
I took a new movie with my camera and tried to import it. Aperture does not see the movie on my flash card.
I tried opening my other libraries and observe the same behavior. So this problem is with the application and NOT the specific library.
I've also repaired permissions, and rebuilt the library, with no success.
The only thing I haven't tried is to reinstall AP3, which I just did yesterday. It just feels like my copy of AP3 doesn't have all the 'movie parts' included.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

I haven't selected the RAW+jpgs pair or anything,
You need to select exactly "RAW+jpg" pairs, otherwise, Aperture will import only jpeg or raw, and a video file is neither of those. If that does not help, check your video codecs:
Check, if you have the codec 3ivxVideoCodec.component installed, see how to remove it, if necessary: Aperture 3: May be unresponsive or have slower performance with third-party video codec
Also, try if removing the Flip4Mac video components will help, if you have them installed.

My ipods are no longer recognized after I installed my Iphone I have 2 ipods that I have music on and still want to use them so how do I get the computer to recognize the ipods again?

I recently got an Iphone and after I installed it on my computer my 2 ipods are no longer able to sync to the computer how do I get the computer to recognize the 2 different ipods so I can still use them?

Since you already had two iPod before getting the iPhone, what exactly did you need to "install" to use the iPhone? Doesn't it use to the same iTunes installation you already used with the iPods?
So, I guess my question is, what changed on the computer when you started using the iPhone?
What happens now when you connect the iPod? Is the iPod still seen in Windows device manager?

Dropbox folder no longer recognized after upgrading to yosemite

After I upgraded to Yosemite my dropbox folder is no longer syncing to dropbox. Has anybody else had this issue?

Yes - also, the dropbox icon on the top bar goes to a white blank if I've closed and opened the lid to my Macbook Air - I do a restart to see it and to access files - weird.

ITouch no longer recognized after installing iTunes 8 and Leopard

I recently installed the new version of iTunes, which prompted me to download the new version of Quicktime, which then prompted me to install Leopard, which I did. Now I have the new version of iTunes, but my iTouch is no longer coming up as a recognized device. My connecting cable still works because my iTouch is charging when I connect it to my Powerbook, but the device is not recognized by my computer, and I've run out of options. I have tried restarting my iTouch, and also using a different connecting cable-- nothing works. Any advice?
Thanks a million.

Hello,
Just wanted to make sure you've also restarted the computer, in addition to restarting the iPod touch. For the time being, try to connect the iPod with the USB cable that came with it, and make sure it's being connected directly to the computer, and not through any external USB hubs or anything of the sort. Also, if you haven't tried this, try connecting the iPod to a different USB port.
Since installing Leopard, double check your Software Updates to make sure there's nothing else pending that you might need. (Just click on Software Update in your Apple menu).
If that hasn't worked it out, you might try reinstalling Apple Mobile Device Support, which is what allows the iPod touch to communicate with your computer and iTunes.
First, drag iTunes from your Applications folder to the Trash.
Then, delete these files:
(1) AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg located in: Macintosh HD/Library/Receipts/
(2) AppleMobileDevice.kext located in: Macintosh HD/System/Library/Extensions/
Restart your computer
Download and install iTunes again

USB 3.0 device no longer recognized after USB driver update

Hello,
I was setting up a Windows 7 Pro x64 machine. This PC had 2 USB external hard drives plugged into the USB 3.0 ports in the back. These drives were working fine after Windows installation using (I guess) the Windows default driver.
However, after I installed the USB 3.0 driver downloaded from the motherboard vendor, one of the drives wasn't recognized anymore. In fact, Windows told me the device had malfunctioned. I tried reinstalling the USB 3.0 driver and plugging the troubled device
into different ports but these measures didn't help.
That hard drive still works when I plug it in a different machine and this allows me to get the data off it. However, I would like to fix the problem described above and to resume using this hard drive with its original machine.
Any help please? Thanks!
OS: Windows 8 x64 Pro with Media Center. All drivers up-to-date.

Make sure it's the right series usb 3 driver, series 7 or series 8. Series 7 drivers are version 1.x and series 8 are version 2.x. They use the same device id's.

Hi, After installing Leopard, my Dreamweaver CS3 local site root is no longer available, although files and folders still exist in it. Any suggestions? Thanks!

You can reconnect the local root folder to the site from within Dreamweaver.

Bamboo Fun no longer recognized after Safari 4.0.2 + iTunes update

My pen tablet was working just fine until I installed the Safari 4.0.2 and iTunes 8.2.1 update. After that, I have to struggle to move my cursor around the screen (I can move it some, just not as easily as before) plus System Preferences says there is no USB pen tablet found. I have reinstalled the driver several times with the same result.
Can I uninstall this update? I wasn't having any problems with Safari 4 up till then.
Robin

Can I uninstall this update?
No, you can't uninstall it. You can revert to a previous version of Safari 3 if youu have a bootable backup of your entire system; otherwise you'll need to do an Archive & Install.
But It sounds like there are other issues with your Mac that have never been addressed that could be the actual cause of your problem, not Safari 4.0.2 or iTunes. If you want to work on fixing those, we can help, but it not, your only option is to Archive & Install.
