Mounting CD's wrong fstype and Thunar issues

Hi im having a strange problem with Thunar its not showing my cd or dvd or ntfs drives when mounted in the side pane.

And also I cant seem to mount CD's although DVD's work, i've tried in my DVD drive and CDRW but it doesnt work I get this error..
ash@breakage:~ $ mount /mnt/cdrom
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
So I done dmesg | tail and got this..
ash@breakage:~ $ dmesg | tail

These are my groups:

Anyone know how to fix this?

The.. "UDF-fs INFO UDF 0.9.8.1 (2004/29/09) Mounting volume 'VIDEO_DVD', timestamp 2004/12/03 21:42 (1000)"
line when I was mounting a DVD to check it works (and it does) before trying to mount a CD using "mount /mnt/cdrom"
I've just tried mounting a CD again from the first drive using "mount /mnt/CD" in Openbox and get this..

I've also tried mounting from my CDRW drive instead of the DVD drive using "mount /mnt/cdrom1" and get this output:

Also for the hell of it I tried mounting the CD using "mount /mnt/dvd" using the DVD drive..

end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 1024
UDF-fs: No partition found (1)
About mounting them via the DE, how could I do that? I use XFCE4 as my main DE but cannot find an option to mount the CD in Thunar or Xfce there is no drive icons in "/mnt" just folders.
And my Removable Drives and Media section looks like this..
And thanks for the reply
Edit: I've removed the optical devices from fstab and now DVDs and data CDs automount how do I get music CDs to mount?

Unless it's confirmed officially that your phone is defective, then you can ask for a replacement. Or you have to live with you. However you can trade it for a new one if you don't care the price drop.

E17 on a fresh Arch Linux + gtk apps... auto mounting and other issues

hi all...
I have gone through the forums and found a similar but-not-quite-the-same thread about this, which is why I am posting a new thread - so, please excuse any redundancy/laziness.
As the topic says, I am making a new Arch Install, on my laptop that has/had arch+kdemod on it for quite some time now. I have now tarred that old install and put it on my desktop that has more RAM than this lappy. So I went with a minimalist approach - after googling for long, I managed to put together something that takes up about 350 MB RAM, when running the desktop, firefox, mplayer, openoffice, two or three terminals, and conky - which is all pretty good. But I am having some teething troubles in many issues, so any help in the following is most appreciated.
My set-up and the problems....
WM - e17, from the repos (I tried, but could not get the easy_e17 script to work properly)
FM - emelfm2
- I am not able to get my USBs, CDs, DVDs etc to mount automagically. I have HAL from the repos. This is my fstab.
/dev/cdrom /media/cd auto ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /media/fl auto user,noauto 0 0
This setup gave me no trouble at all when using Arch-Kdemod. Now I have to be root to mount from the command line, and can not auto mount cd/dvd/USBs.
E17 file manager enabled is also no help.
browser - firefox, dillo
terminal - mrxvt
editor - leafpad
audio - mpd + sonata
video - gmplayer
sys monitor - conky
cd/dvd burner - recorder, from the repos
Openoffice, PSPP for statistics
Pidgin
Wengophone2
at the moment I am behind a proxy and haven't yet tried it, but can anyone confirm it is still working...?
epdfview
chmsee
rtorrent
feh, exhibit
dreamchess
That is the whole setup, in case it helps someone.
Thanks for reading, and waiting for suggestions about the auto mount issue.

hi all...
Thanks for the replies.
@fingel... That udev rules addition on the wiki gave me the jitters initially as it looked like I was hacking away at my systems innards, BUT, after trying everything else, including things mentioned here, nothing worked. So I finally did the udev thing, and now the USB is mounting fine.
However I still cannot get DVDs or CDs to mount. I am added to the optical group, and yet I have to click the mount icon in emelfm2 to be able to mount the CD or DVD - the only consolation is that I am able to mount it as normal user.
Any help there....? I haven't modified anything from the usual install, except for this udev thingy.
And, How can I make the mrxvt terminal show me more lines on scrolling up. Now it is allowing me to scroll up only by 10 lines or so, and I am having to pipe through less to be able to view anything meaningful in commands like yaourt -Ss

[SOLVED]Mounting usb drives "not authorized" with thunar-volman (XFCE)

Hi,
I'm new to Arch (even though I must be approximately at my 15th try at installing it properly) and I have a problem with thunar-volman.
Whenever I log in as user, and try to mount a usb drive with thunar, let's say I want to plug a drive labeled Ext3_8Go, I get the same message in a pop-up window : "Failed to mount Ext3_8Go (or anything close, not in English in the text), not authorized (that part is in English)"
My install is :
- net install
- partitions : 9Go for /, no swap, no separate /home
- packages : base and base-devel. The only modifications in the package list is that I remove ppp, pcmciautils, and xfsprogs.
- config : at the install stage I only modify rc.conf to change LOCALE and HOSTNAME, and pacman's mirrorlist to allow all French mirrors in addition to the one at the top.
When the usb installation is over, I run this script :
"installation_xfce.sh" (there may be some errors left, I modify this script as I learn) :
#!/bin/bash
# expected environment : freshly installed archlinux, login : root.
echo "Are you connected to internet ? If not, please Ctrl+C and reload this script when connected"
echo "Otherwise, press ENTER to continue installation"

I can mount as a user, no password asked, with :
udisks --mount /dev/sdb2
but the GUI method tells me "not authorized".

For those who don't have time to read the installation script, DBUS is in the DAEMONS list of rc.conf, and .xinitrc launches : exec ck-launch-session startxfce4
Any idea ?

Thanks a lot !
That worked !
I stumbled across this part of the wiki several times before, but didn't really understand so I had not tried.
If anyone's interested in the script, here's the corrected version :

echo "Otherwise, press ENTER to continue installation"

Store rep signed me up under the wrong plan and no one in customer service has fixed it in over a month

I was bait and switched. I signed up under the pretense that I was getting the promotional rate of 40gb/$150 that was scheduled to end on November 5 2014.
I walked into a Verizon wireless store on November 4th with the intent to trade in my iPhone 5s which I was offered $350 trade in value and port over 2 of my lines with T-Mobile under the Verizon promotion. Once I was approved and offered my trade in I was told that the phones I was seeking to purchase from Verizon was not in stock and needed to be ordered, and delivered separately with the iPhone 6 being shipped out November 14 and the iPhone 6+ shipped November 21. Thomas, the Verizon wireless sales representative, also informed me that for me to get the promotional rate I would have to open the account with an active line before the 5th or I wouldn't be able to get the promotional rate since the phones would be delivered past the promotional date period. The sales representative insisted I should add an iPad that was in stock at the store and I could leave the store with an active account and once my phones were delivered I would be all set to go with my promotional plan and devices. I had no need for an iPad but decided it was worth getting for the sake of the promotion.
ON November 14 I recieved via FedEx a package containing not a iPhone 6 as promised, but a iPhone 6+. I called Verizon to activate the phone that was ported to my personal phone number, and didn't have my iPhone 6 that was set to port my out of state business line and cancel service with T-Mobile on the 14th of November. To say the least I was extremely upset for which I had no means of recieving business calls from North Carolina while I live in Florida. At that point I asked the Verizon customer care representative I had on the phone to see if they could see if there was a store that had the iphone 6 I ordered in stock so that I an could have a business phone the same day. He found a store that had it in stock and it happened to be the store I originally signed up at. I was told that it was in the color and storage capacity I had originally ordered and that I could pick it up at the store to complete my purchase with Verizon. Again, for the sake of having a business line I ran to the store and spoke with Thomas and explained the mix up. upon moving forward I was informed that they had an iPhone 6 in stock with the capacity I had requested but not the same color I had ordered. At that point I didn't care I just needed a phone and proceeded to activate the phone he had in stock And ported over my business line.
After recieving a text from Verizon that I had consumed all of my data just days after I recieved my phones I called Verizon 611 from my phone and spoke to a customer care representative named Fallon, which informed me I was set up on the wrong plan and that she see's the notes that Thomas notated that I was subscribing for a 40gb plan and that she was going to send a request I D # [removed] form to make the corrections and that there was no need for me to cancel service as I was within my cancelation period, again she insisted that there was no need to cancel and that the request would be granted and she would be calling me once my billing cycle reset and the corrections were made and she would credit my account based on the promotional rate. I NEVER RECIEVED A CALL FROM FALLON! Not even to be notified that the request was denied! I came to realize later in December when I recieved a $1200 bill that this wasn't resolved. I called customer service again and spoke with a gentleman that explained the request was denied and that this will be resolved after I explained what transpired. He assured me that he was going to expedite another request and he would be in contact with me within a few hours....... I'm still waiting for his call as well!
I called again several times in the past few days and have spoken to several supervisors that promised to resolve this matter and call me back promptly........ Again, no one has called me back!
December the 8th I spoke with a supervisor named Victoria which assured me she would get this resolved within the next 24 hours and gave me her direct number to reach her if I didn't hear from her [removed], again I haven't heard from her yet and I've made several attempts to reach her at her direct line to no avail.
December the 9th I spoke with supervisor named Mike employee #[removed] in the Seattle call center, he appoligized for the mix up and that no one has called me back and that he would handle this matter and get back to me today December 10th....... Again no call..... I have spoken to 3 people today all which have made promises to call me back today within a few hours and none that have. I just got off the phone with a supervisor named Vanessa Jentfield at the Chicago call center and saw all the notations and assured me that there is no reason why this shouldn't be corrected and that she would be calling me back tonight or tomorrow. I will be sitting by the phone unless Verizon wireless decides to disconnect my service for non payment of $1200+.........
I have filed a complaint giving a detailed explanation of what has transpired with the FCC as well as the FTC, my next step is to file a small claims lawsuit tomorrow morning with the state of Florida and see if Verizon finds a way to contact me then,I guess I will just have to wait and see.

It was a good idea to file a complaint with the FCC, someone from Verizon will contact you by phone in an effort to resolve your issue. I wouldn't suggest small claims court as they have not done anything illegal, (just bad customer service) and their contract with you is usually upheld, which in this case is not for the plan you want. The person contacting you likely has a little more pull, as the call centers can only uphold the written customer agreement made.

IQ826t Restart and Heating Issue

One thing I definitely do not like the HP's support especially when they will not allow us to buy a 7 Upgrade from Vista nor will they support something (even when I find their glitches and they admit after telling me it was just the OS).. On Repair work, I had to ship it out and this will be my 2-3 time to do repair on this PC in the past 3 years (and I have to wait a week for the repair to be done...)
Besides that, IQ826t, Win 7 Ultimate SP1
All Drivers are up to date with HP website (utilizing Win 7 64 bit drivers and Firmware is up to date). AVG update/scan (no issue - confirmed even rootkit).. Malwarebyte - Scan and no issue
Disk Cleanup, Disk Defragmentation done on a monthly and quarterly schedule
Biggest Issue:
I am getting a crash with Win 7 0x124 Stop Error Message (happens periodically and even after a reboot)
Never had this issue until May and the upgrade to Win 7 was done last year with SP1 update done on March (so it is not an issue with the OS as HP support personnel seems to think... I proved them the issue with Windows Update History, The Bluescreen error code on my error code reader).. This machine under warranty and I had issues with it constant (even in Vista)
They state that it is the OS.. Again, if that was the case, I would think it would happen right away like my Toshiba on SP1 upgrade... That was not the case in the matter. I have a firmware reset (default settings) and the issue persist..
The Error Code relates always HAL.dll or ntoskrnl.exe
One if hardware compatiblity and the other is an OS kernel exe file.. And this usually checking knowledge base relates to hardware failing due to 1) Compatibility (which HP website confirms is not the case) 2) OS corruption (which is not the case checking on safe mode and this happening STILL 3) Heat Issue (which I believe is the issue and was been documented on the Internet
What I am noticing is the unit is extremely HOT (vent is almost burning when it has been off and just turned on).. I wonder if the hardware pieces are literally melting to destruction since I can't just open it up (they state it will void my warranty)
The Symptoms before the Crash (happens any time.. Even right after a power up)
If you are playing audio or video, you will start to hear jitters and sound seems to echo itself .. Video would start to lag and become choppy.. Systems start to slow down and things seem to run very slow.. I have seen the power light on the PC start on but the touchscreen just go black (will not restart sometimes)..
Minor Issues (but could be related)
1) When running PC Hardware Diagnostic, they will come up with an error code in the past and that was warranted for a motherboard replacement (of course, they ship the box to the wrong location and I was in the middle of my wedding so I get to it now).. It was pertaining to PCI Express Status ICH9 PCI Express Root Port where it will generate an error code... Now, running the diagnostic... I will not get any error but PCI Express Root Port 3 & 5 do not show up on the diagnostic... Wouldn't that obvious show something that is a problem when there are 6 ports (which on the previous diagnostic that I can't grab past logs shows that). That is not warranted for a warranty work? Just a note, I got the fail test code (which was intermittent but keep happening and the tech support would not look at previous case.. Port 4 failed and a fatal device code)
2) Blu-Ray player will not run and their answer is that it is your Blu-Ray until they realize that I ran it on 3 different Blu-Ray player standalone, different Blu-Ray, and confirm DVD will work.. They still think it is a software issue until they can't deny my point when it will not read the Blu-Ray no matter what (they took control and confirmed it).. They believe the HP SmartDVD software was failing because of Win 7 and not Vista (even when I downgrade and confirm it works, I stated the software is the issue... Lone and behold, 2 months later they had an update that they refuse to admit I was RIGHT on the matter and done 15 hours of troubleshooting that they were wrong about)
3) Wireless Keyboard and Mouse lost connectivity even if the battery is not low... Just stop typing or omit letters.. This is considering the keyboard is literally in front of the touchscreen
4) Touchscreen is sensitive when it wants to be but won't in other... Constant issues there
This is why I have so much issue with support.. They seem to show that they will do anything to deny the issue.. Heck, I am a computer technian calling on the issue.. It ain't like I didn't troubleshoot on the matter... But they think we are all morons and when I prove them wrong, they will use any excuse to honor warranty... That is why it is amazing..

Scan app not opening and other issues

Hi,
Let me start by saying thank you for your assistance. I have a regular-old 5514 photosmart airprint printer, and it is going crazy. It is just about to be two years old. My computer is a MacBook Pro on 10.9.1 (also two years old). The printer and computer are connected by my Comcast blast wifi. All of my paper and ink are HP. So here's the problem, first it won't print my pictures, not on glossy or regular-it just makes the noise like it is printing but the pages are blank (this never used to be a issue); second, the scan app won't even open on my computer, it just gives me a long page of coded errors or just automatically closes; finally, it often is printing streaky if it does print. There are no updates that I can find on for the app on my computer, and I have zone 2 ink, (I will buy more if this thing starts working), and I have run all the tests and they are completely fine as if nothing is wrong. Please help! If you need additional details I can provide that info.
Thanks,
amycdero

Hi amycdero and welcome to the HP Forum,
I understand that you are having scanning and printing issues after upgrading to Mavericks OS X v10.9.1. I will try my best to help you resolve this issue.
In this document for Mac OS X: Scanning Software Does Not Open or Stops Responding are steps the may help you with your scanning issue.
This document for Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems should help with the streaking printing issue.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know.
Thank you,
I worked on behalf of HP.

Firefox for Mac preferences shows .qif file format for quicken as "quicktime image format"-wrong application and won't let me select anything else

Post to Firefox forum; Oct.2011
Re: Quicken 2007; Mac OS 10.5
Problem: can’t import or download Qif format files into quicken from bofa or Chase. Mac can’t recognize; how do I set preferences in Firefox (or Safari).
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/new?product=desktop&category=d1&search=Firefox+for+Mac+preferences+shows+.qif+file+format+for+quicken+as+%22quicktime+image+format%22-wrong+application+and+won%27t+let+me+select+anything+else&showform=1
Hello,
I previously used Firefox on my old Mac G4 with OS 10.3.9; the above issue existed with that system and Firefox 2.00.2 (or similar). I then "tried" to move to a G5 Mac with OS 10.5, hoping that an updated Mac Operating system and updating Firefox would solve that problem.
I'm now working on my son's MacBook Pro, OS 10.5.8, 2.4 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo; 2gb Memory; 2 gb 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM.
I still have a problem in Firefox Preferences trying to download .qif files. BofA Mortgage accounts only allow downloading of .qif files. My .qfx download works fine, but the error message is as follows:
The error message is that this is a corrupted file or one that Preview doesn't recognize.
and it is still a problem when trying to download Quicken .qif format files for our B of A mortgage.
The preferences for Firefox under File Helpers won't let me name the extension I want; instead, it CONFUSES .qif (Quicken Interchange Format) with .qtif (Quicktime Image Format) for Mac.
Therefore, when I download .qif files and try to import them to Quicken, I get a message that this is a corrupted file:
thanks for any help.
Val in Seattle

Well, in the end, I just gave up and deleted the photos, in the hope that it was something to do with them. Took some more photos and they seem to have imported without any problems at all.
Given that the same irksome photos loaded on the wife's macbook without so much as a murmur, how weird is that?
Still- all's well that ends well. Thanks for the suggestions- much appreciated.

My Ipod is stuck on a white screen with the wrong time and a lock. computer doesn't recognized my Ipod..also gets hot when connected to charge..any ideas on how to fix this? Thank You

Hi
My Ipod nana...has frozen up and working. It shows a white screen with the wrong time and a lock symbol. When I connected it to my computer, it didn't show up. Back of Ipod gets really warm..Any ideas on how to fix it? Than You

If it happens again and the reset (home + power buttons) doesn't work, just let the battery drain; you'll know when the screen shuts off. Charge it back up and it should be fine. Frankly, I'm surprised this worked for you. Usually I hear people with this problem say that holding both buttons doesn't work, and they have to do the battery drain.
If the issue is incurable next time, you have a one-year warranty from the date of purchase.

How to change Purchase Order currency after Good receipt and Good issue?

Hi,
I've a PO created last year. The PO currency has been entered wrongly.
My store colleague has been performed good received and consumed it.
Now, I am not able to change PO currency to correct one, due to this message:-
Currency can no longer be changed
Message no. 06489
Diagnosis
As a basic rule, the currency cannot be changed if there has already been a goods receipt against a document.
If the document contains external service and/or limit items, or if an invoicing plan has been assigned to an item, the currency cannot be changed following the receipt of an invoice either.
If external service items exist, the currency also cannot be changed if services that have actually been performed have already been recorded or if the item in question has been assigned to a preventive maintenance (servicing) plan.
Is there anyway to change PO currency after Good receipt and Good issue? Thanks !

Music playlist shows wrong cover and too many songs

On my iPhone 4s, I just did the upgrade to iOS 7 (I did a fresh install to be sure) and I am using iTunes 11.1
So now my playlist in the Music app is messed up.
In iTunes, I have both: just normal playlists and playlist-folders (which themselves have playlists)
e.g. A Folder is called "The Alan Parsons Project" and underneath there are the playlists ("I Robot", "On Air", ...)
The problem is with this playlist folders:
On the iPhone, the Music app shows me the right folder name, but it shows me a wrong cover. The same wrong cover for each playlist-folder!
The playlists themselves appear with the right cover
Any other music app (Track 8, CarTunes), that ist able to show the number of songs, shows me the folder names, each containing all my songs!
Normal playlists are shown correctly.
Any suggestions?

Thank you! This was driving me crazy. I had this issue when I initially installed iOS 7. At that time I removed all my music and resynced, and then the correct art displayed. I recently had to restore my iPhone and resync, and the bug of wrong art for playlist folders came back. (Strangely, it consistently displayed the same wrong art and displayed the same wrong art as when it happened before.) I kept removing and resyncing my playlists and deleting the iTunes album art cache to no avail. The fix of renaming the folders worked!

Drag-and-drop issue with Linux, KDE

My application used to work fine, but when i tested it on Linux drag and drop stopped working.
I used snippet that would take list of supported DataFlavors of Transferable and used for loop to find a javafilelist one. (isJavaFileListType()).
Well, now, it does that flava scan, but it doesn't find javafilelisttype in the list!
I tried to retrieve String, serializedobject.. no use. It throws and illegal action exception of DnD or something like that.
Does anybody know what's wrong, or had similar issues? I use j2 of v 1.5.2
I shall provide you with more info if it's something totally new.

I'd be interested in the answer to this too.
It only just started happening to me a day or so ago, about the time that I think I did an OS upgrade.
I'm on OSX 10.8.2.
Its annoying.
I can drop and drag in Finder but it just affects email.

AirDrop showing the wrong name and picture with iOS 7

AirDrop is showing the wrong name and picture on my wife's phone....It is showing my name and picture. She has an iPhone 5 and I just updated her to iOS7 about an hour ago, same time as I did mine. Is it because we are connected with the same Apple ID and if so, how do I fix it? She is annoyed by it and not seeing where I can change it in the settings is beginning to annoy me. Help!

I don't think that's the issue. I'm having the same problem. My wife, my son, and I all use the same Apple ID, but we have different email addresses and phone numbers for facetime and imessage (we've never had an issue with imessage or facetime). Today, I updated my phone and ipad to ios 7 and tried to experiment with airdrop. On both devices it showed my son's name. Then my son updated his ipad and we tested airdrop again. His ipad shows up on my phone and ipad with his name as well. The email address that I use for Apple ID is not associated with him on any device. His name is not listed on our Apple ID account. One of them shows his photo that he uses for his facebook profile, but the other's just have a gray circle with his first initial. I'm hoping it's just a bug that will get fixed soon, but if anyone knows a fix, please share.

Return document picking wrong main and sub transaction @ FPL9

Hi Mates,
I need a help to find out the reason why return document is referring with wrong main and sub in our current client.
Issue: when unpaid returns are posting with reference to payment document return document is posting by using main and sub transaction with previous cleared items.
Ex: 2000200 Invoice document - Main Transaction 0100 sub 0002
3000300 Payment run document - Main Transaction 0610 sub 0010
When return is posting with reference to 3000300 return document is referring 0100 and 0010, and new return document is updating with Billing and invoice text.
Usually if return document is posted that should be refere the payment document 0610 and 0010 main & sub and invoice document 2000200 should be open.
This is happening for all the main and sub cases and return document is referring with cleared items, in some cases it's posting currectly.
I have validated at return lot specific level, posting type=cancel payment.
some of business users are posted using posting type = new receiveble derived from payment.
Second case we found many issues with refeernce wrong sub, but even 1st case also system is showing same.
Kindly suggest.

Hi Bogdan,
Thanks for the reply.
When SD invoices are transferred to FICA, the system checks whether entries maintained for account determination:
1. Maintain Account Assignment Data Relevant to Transactions
2. Derive Main/Sub Transaction from SD information
3. Derive Document Type from SD Billing Document Data
Thanks,
Kumar

TS3899 In trying to set up mobile email, I inadvertently entered wrong server and now in a loop verifying. How do I get out?

In trying to set up mobile email, I input wrong server and now it keeps trying to verify. How do I get out?

1. Close all open apps - double-click the Home button and swipe up on all of the thumbnails for all open apps
2. Reset the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your issues are resolved
Cheers,
