Help! Desperate. Freezes at Post, wont detect HD's

Any time there is only a single drive is on an IDE channel, it should be set to Master, and it should be connected at the end of the IDE cable if it is a two-drop cable, not the middle connector.

Sorry for asking, but if my cd-rw is the only optical drive on ide1 do I still need to set the jumpers?  Currently I have it on slave (forgot to change it when I had only 1 optical drive left about 8 months ago).  Sorry for the totally noob question.

  • My computer wont detect my Canon vixia hf r400

    Please Help me. My computer wont detect my Canon vixia hf r400 im running windows 8 and I tried everything from installing the drivers to the USB ports, I have my ports in legacy mode and still wont detect. I have USB 3.0 ports but I can't imagine it not being backwards compatible. What can I do to get my computer to recognize it. It only detects when I have a memory card in the camcorder but that is like just having the card in a SD slot on my computer. No software that come with it will detect it either.

    Put the camera into AVCHD mode before connecting it to the computer.

  • Upgrading to Windows vista means itunes wont detect my ipod?? Help please.

    Recently upgraded to windows Vista. Big whopdeedo.
    But anyway, when I plug my ipod in, windows tries to update drivers for it, but of course failas horribly.
    However, this is having a knock on effect that means itunes wont detect my ipod. So, while my ipod recharges, I cannot sync it. Thus I can't add new songs and what-not.
    Please help.

    Yes my ipod is jailbroken, but this has never proved an issue before.
    Its not just itunes that now wont recognise my ipod, my other software wont either, and they used to work with the jailbroken ipod.
    This all started after i synced a nano, then connected my ipod and a screen came up saying ipod camera connected.
    I click on the camera icon in mycomputer and properties tab then selected take no action in the events tab.
    This hasnt resolved my issue, and the ipod still comes up as a camera in mycomputer, the only difference being im now not prompted to choose a program to view my photos with.
    This is really getting up my nose, as for the second poster, sorry that article was no help at all.
    Please someone help me

  • WD Elements External Hard drive wont detect on my MBP anymore. HELP!!

    I was desperate to transfer my files from my WD external drive to my MBP but to no avail. So I searched online and found MacFuse and NTFS-3G. So I installed them both and after that, my WD Elements wont show anymore. It was working before prior to installing MacFuse & NTFS-3G. So I tried to remove them both but still the same problem. It wont detect my WD external drive anymore. The light on my WD drive is lighted up as usual but can't be found on Finder. I also tried to remove the WD external drive from my MBP and it recognises that my WD is there! Its says did not unmount correctly, something like that. I also tried to isolate the problem using another computer, this time, Windows and it works well.
    The Culprit of all this is when I install MacFue & NTFS-3G
    So I am stuck, any help would be highly appreciated.

    Remove MacFuse and NTFS3G. remove them correctly, get the directions from the vendor(s). Don't put it back
    Do you have any backups or are you winging it?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    To restore from backup see:

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • Macbook Pro with Retina wont detect monitor on mini display port to dual-link dvi adapter

    So after reading Jeff Atwood's post, I decided to jump and give it a shot. So this week I got my monitor in from Korea, and I already had my Apple mini display port to dual-link dvi adapter, hooked everything up - and nothing. Monitor doesnt show a signal, and no display shows up in user preferences.
    To verify the monitor actually works, i plugged it into my windows box - and boom, right away there it is in all its glory. So I called apple support, after spending about an hour going through the "are you sure its plugged in stuff", the tech finally admitted to being stumped and blamed the adapter. Not to be deterred, I then went to my local apple store and talked them into trying their adapter to rule out the adapter - regardless of the adapter, the mbp wont detect the monitor.
    Just for fun, i tried my old single mini displayport to single dvi, the monitor is recognized, but that obviously cant drive the right resolution, so i just get a backlight. Same deal when i try the hdmi port with a hdmi to dual-link dvi adapter on the end of it. Also tried display port to the same hdmi with adapter on it (the joys of working in a dev shop - cables to test everywhere)
    I have read / tried a ton of things:
    re-installed / uninstalled air display, just to be sure it was gone. went through all my apps just to see if there is anything like this i could think would be effecting it
    install gfxCardStatus to ensure i am on the nvidia (discrete) and not the internal card
    Played with different settings on SwitchResX to try to force the res over hdmi - no love - os rejected each one
    I bought the monoprice adapter wondering if it was just the apple adapter since the apple adapter has been panned, no love from it either
    Reset the PRAM countless times
    I have two other adapters coming in to test with in a day or two - maybe one of those will be magic, but at this point i kinda think its software on the mac. My Spec:
    I am running Mountain Lion with all the latest updates
    New MBP with Retina (2.6g processor, 16gig ram, nvidia video card)
    Here is the ebay link to the monitor
    Now the other weird thing is pretty much universally these auctions say the monitors cant be run on a laptop - which makes no sense to me, because its just a connection, if the video card is strong enough (which my machine better be) it shouldnt matter the source. The listing mentions its a "by-pass" monitor, which is something I and google have never heard of.
    So any sage words to make my day?

    Magic was, I have to have the adpter plugged into the mac, let it recognize all with the monitor powered off.
    then power on the monitor, and boom gloriousness
    For future generations, setup that works:
    1) MacBook Pro with Retina
    2) Monitor From Korea (example auction)
    3) Accell Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Active adapter (amazon)
    4) Boot mac, plug in adapter, let it recognize the monitor, power on monitor

  • 27'  iMac wont detect Display

    Hey folks,
    I'm using the 27'' iMac Intel i5 and i have the following issue
    it wont detect my dell S2009Wb display, I bought the original adapter from apple from the mini display port to dvi.
    any suggestions? or experiences please help!
    thanks guys!

    Whew, I think I'd call Apple & ask to speak to customer relations, if what you say is true about the store/genii it sounds flat out wrong.
    Does it start & show anything if you hold Option or alt key at startup?
    How about the SHIFT key?
    Does it still boot from the Install Disc?

  • Creative software wont detect Hardware

    I've been spending days and nights on this.
    ?OS : Windows 7 Home 64bit
    ?Sound card : X-fi Titanium Fatalty PCI express
    After plugging in the card to the MB, Windows 7 detected a card there. downloaded generic sound drivers and called the card High Definition Audio Device or something of the sorts. Using the creative auto update prgram, it told me to download the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Driver 2.7.0007. When installing, it would give me an error saying there is a more up to date driver installed already. I know that "HD audio Device" is not the most up to date drivers. I tried uninstalling the drivers then installing the creative one. Win7 constantly installs its own drivers over and over again. I have Home, so i cant use the group policy trick to turn off auto driver install. So i looked through the CD that came with the card and found a force overwrite driver install. Clicked it, Software installed just fine. Restarted windows, installed the latest card drivers perfectly fine. This took me about 3 hours. Not wanting to bang my head anymore i went to bed.
    ?The next day I hit the auto update and its wants me to download a bunch of these creative software packages. I only downloaded Creative Console Launcher 2.6.35, Creative Diagnostics 5..02. Both of these prgrams do not detect the card and will not start. I tried re-installing, starting it up in compatibility with vista, xp. Nothing. I did not want to delve deeper into this knowing i would spend hours non stop trying to figure this out.
    ?The next day Win7 updates tell me to install "Creative - Audio - Creative X-Fi Audio Processor (WDM)", Thinking that Win7 finally recognizes the card, i install. Now there is no system tray icon for audio and the drivers rolled back to 2.6.3? Along with this Win7 update, creative audio control panel was installed and also does not detect any sound device, yet sound is playing just fine and i can access the sound settings through the windows audio panel. I have downloaded Product Identification Module Update. Software stil does not detect sound card.
    ? Yes i have read through many other post across the forums. Sadly, they were lacking a lot of details. I will be updating this post realsing any new details i come across in trying to fix this issues. As to the main point behind this, I would like to know if there is a fix somewhere for my specific problem. That problem being, I am not able to use my soundcard to its full potential and i would like very much to.
    ## After Several registry cleanings and restarts, the tray icon is back again.
    Using the "Creative System Information" program, it does in fact detect the correct hardware and drivers. If anyone would like to see the Creative System Information Report just ask and i'll send it.
    ### Experimenting with the software on the CD, the Creative Volume Panel works, and the AutoMode swticher works just fine. So why is it that these programs work and detect a souncard, but the others dont?

    *Re: Creative software wont detect Hardware& The beat goes on. In searching the Creative web site, I couldn't find my web cam ?model listed and in the download area, it was written that if the model is not present, they no longer support it with updated drivers specifically for W-7 . I have two computers that I have tried to install the web cam on:
    -one running 64 bit W-7. This one sees the mike and ear piece but not the video.(no green light on the camera); attempts to load the drivers from the disc that came with the camera failed.(Repeated several times)
    -one running 32 bit W-7. This one sees the video camera which shows my face on the screen so it works; the audio for the ear piece and the mike can not be seen saying no sound card is present. We took some cards out ?from the original home entertainment model relating to tv and such?but the audio card function?should still be on the motherboard. This computer did run the web cam before in XP with all the extra cards present.
    I think the systems?are using Realtek drivers.
