My Firewire Clone is not showing up in the Startup Disk selection window

Going to the Startup Disk section Under System Preferences to locate my mounted Firewire/cloned HD - But it's not showing up there for start up selection.
The external firewire clone, running OS X 10.4.11 shows up in the finder right away. Also I have mounted and used it as the start up disk on several other computers just fine. The current computer I'm having issues mounting to is a: 2 ghz Intel MacBook with 1 gb ram running 10.4.11
The previous computers that I have had success mounting to were a G4 ibook and a G5 imac(OSX 10.4.11). - Don't know if the Intel part is why I can't mount?
Any ideas or fixes - Thanks!

  • NetBoot images are not showing up in the Startup Disk window

    I have created a few Netboot images, enabled them and placed them in the correct place.
    They don't show up in the Startup Disk window.
    I have noticed that bootparamd is not running, and that after a while also bootpd disappeared.
    Strange, no?
    (I started them back up and it didn't make a difference.)

    It looks like the NFS exports has separate entries for both:
    /Volumes/xxxxx
    /Volumes/xxxxx/Library/NetBoot/NetBootSP0
    and that's not allowed. You can't separately export a directory and one of its subdirectories on the same file system.
    It sounds like maybe the Server Admin tools are confused. If you don't really need /Volumes/xxxxx exported, then I think just deleting that share should fix things up.
    If you can't get the tools to straighten things out, you could override all the NFS exports with your own defined in /etc/exports. There's an exports(5) man page that describes the format and creating an /etc/exports file will override anything in NetInfo (10.4 and earlier).
    If you want to export both directories, they just need to be listed in the same exports entry, like:
    /Volumes/xxxxx /Volumes/xxxxx/Library/NetBoot/NetBootSP0
    This causes the "/Volumes/xxxxx" file system to be exported and allows only the directories "/Volumes/xxxxx" and "/Volumes/xxxxx/Library/NetBoot/NetBootSP0" to be mounted.

  • Audio not showing onTV monitor  -  HD Startup disk fault.

    In FCP5 my settings have gone awry with Default Audio showing 'everwhere' except in the Timeline Settings Audio Output where I note "Load Audio Preset" refuses to quit and let in Default Audio as my setting.
    I get audio from the computer as if the View setting is not on All Frames when it actually is. The video plays quite clearly in the monitor with the audio coming from the MacPro.
    Repairing and verifying permissions led me to verify HD which produced - "Disk Utility stopped verifying Macintosh HD because the following error was encountered:
    The underlying task reported failure on exit. 1 HFS volume checked. Volume needs repair."
    Using Disk Utility I again tried to get into disk repair for the HD. Greyed out. Used the install startup disk utility and got the same result so I now am stuck and can't finish off projects in FCP because of the audio error.
    Info sent to Apple on their Feedback page. No more heard.
    Help anyone.. ? T.I.A.

    You ARE running v5.1 on your intel machine - correct? If not, that could be the source of your problem.
    If you are running v5.1,
    The first time you run FCP Attic, simply TRASH the preferences and restart the system. The program will generate new preference files with the default settings.
    Once you get the application stable - then use Attic to BACKUP the known to be good prefs. If you run into corrupted preferences later, simply RESTORE back to operable versions.
    Diskwarrior 4 is available but, if you are upgrading from an earlier version, it is only available on CD. It takes a couple of weeks to ship it. If you are purchasing a new version, I believe you can download and burn your own CD.
    Reinstalling FCP doesn't fix as much stuff as you'd think.
    Try this.
    -Boot up the computer and go to System Preferences>Accounts
    -Click on the '+' at the bottom of the list of accounts to create a new user account. Call it whatever makes sense but be sure to give it admin privileges.
    -Log out of your current account into the new account.
    -Launch FCP. Do things work as they should?
    -If so, you definately have an FCP preferences issue and Attic usually takes care of these
    -If not, you have other problems and should start thinking about a complete wipe of the hard drive and a reinstall of the OS and applications from scratch.
    report back.

  • Where are the downloaded files? Project is not showing up in the programs area of Windows 8.1

    I downloaded the Project files.  Now it doesn't show up in the programs area.  What happened to it?  The files did download completely - it took a while!  Assistance is greatly appreciated! 

    The default location for download in Windows 8.1 is the DOwnloads library, unless you changed it. from start screen, type downloads and see if you can find your files there. You will only see it in programs, after you have INSTALLED it.

  • Boot Camp not showing anymore as a Startup Disk option?

    For months, my internal 1TB had been partitioned 750GB/250GB OS X 10.6/Windows 7, with no problems - I want to use Windows, I either reboot and hold Alt, then choose Windows when the menu comes up, or I go System Preferences > Startup Disk and change it to "Boot Camp".
    A few days ago I shrank the 10.6 partition by 200GB using Disk Utility, then formatted the space as Mac OS Extended and installed the preview of OS X 10.7 Lion (I was invited to try it via the AppleSeed programme).
    Since then, the only options I have in System Prefs > Startup Disk or when holding Alt during boot are 10.6 and 10.7 - Boot Camp seems to have vanished as a choice. If I open Disk Utility, Boot Camp is still there, still 250GB. If I browse the Boot Camp partition in OS X I can see all my Windows files, etc, it just seems to be gone as a bootable option
    Help!

    I have the same problem...  Can do WinClone, not supported on Lion, to get an image backup of W7 partition.  At this point, since I can get to all the data on that partition, I would be more than happy to do an image backup of it, reinstall Windows 7 to get the boot partition to work, then reimage back to that original W7 partition so that I wouldn't have to reinstall and reconfigure all my applications.

  • XP no longer shows up as a startup disk

    After upgrading to leopard today, my XP partition no longer shows up as a startup disk.
    I had/have my windows partition on it's own drive that was NOT created with bootcamp. I pulled my osx disk from the my mac pro and installed windows on the disk i had in bay 2 using 100% of the disk (ntfs). after installing the bootcamp windows drivers, i reinserted the osx disk and all has been well for the last 4 months,... until the upgrade today that is.
    Now, when i go to the 'Startup Disk' preference Windows is no longer an option. the disk still shows up in Finder and I can navigate around the file system.
    Anyone have any ideas on how I can get it to show up again? I'd really rather not have to reinstall if i can avoid it.
    thx.

    I have exactly the same problem (well, maybe).
    I have installed MacFUSE and ntfs-3g. I don't know if this is of any relevance, because I don't know if it was working directly before I installed them.
    I have my OS X and NTFS volumes on the same physical disk. I also had to install Windows twice because I buggered it up the first time (formatted the partition as FAT32 and ran into a bunch of disk errors).
    I also notice that in WinClone I have 2 Untitled Volumes at /dev/disk0s3 and /dev/disk1s1. /dev/disk0s3 seems to be the legit Windows NTFS partition, but I have no idea what /dev/disk1s1 is about. I don't know if it's been there all along or not but perhaps it is confusing matters and stopping the legit Windows volume/installation from being detected...? Should that second volume exist at all? It doesn't exist according to the Disk util.
    edit: I used fdisk just to have a look at the two untitled partitions.

    I can hold the option key upon startup and manually enter Windows like that, but I'd prefer to be able to restart and boot Windows without having to hold a key.
    Apart from not seeing the Windows boot volume in the system prefs pane, Boot Camp (and the rest of Leopard) has been excellent. I am impressed at the level of apple hardware support for windows. It seems to be much better than most native PC hardware.
    I am dying for an answer. It's a fairly minor problem in the grand scheme of things, but **** it's frustrating.

  • Firewire drives do not show up on network

    I have a G5 with 2 external drives, 1 firewire, 1 USB
    I have a G4 with 2 external drives, both firewire.
    When these computers are networked,
    The G5 sees the internal drives from the G4.
    The G4 sees the internal drives from the G5, as well as the connected USB drive.
    But neither computer sees the external firewire drives of the other computer.
    I used to see these drives and made aliases for them, but they do not show up now.
    I am using the admin accounts from each computer.
    G5 running 10.4.5
    G4 running 10.3.9
    What is the cause of this problem? How can I mount the firewire drives on the networked computers?

    I need to modify my question. I also have a G3 running 10.2.8
    Yesterday I noticed that the Network icon in the G5 sidebar had an eject symbol next to it. That seems strange, upon reflection, as if something was not right.
    I shut off all the machines for the evening.
    Today, I restarted all the machines. Chose Finder->Go->Connect to Server->Browse
    From each machine, I was able to see the external drives on the other machines, as well as the internal drives, over the network. I did not use nor install sharepoints. It just works (with an admin account).
    However, on the G5, there is an external firewire Firelite drive. It is formatted as Fat 32.
    It does not show up in the Browse window when I connect to the G5 from any computer. If I move it to the G4, it also does not show up when I connect to the G4 from any computer. So it does not seem to be related to the OS version.
    In other words, it seems that since the Firelite is Dos formatted, I cannot see it on the network, even though it is a firewire drive.
    So how can I fix this problem?

    I have found a fix after doing additional research through this forum. Tech Note #328730 addresses this problem and it works for Photoshop Album 3.2 even though it was written for release 1.0.
    Here is a link that will take you directly to the Tech Note:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=328730
    When using this fix the Tech Note indicates:
    "Imported image data and tags are lost when you re-create the My Catalog.psa file, so you need to reimport images and reapply any tags"
    however it did retain the captions (at least it did for me).

  • My downloaded text sounds do not show up under the sounds tab in settings after installing 8.1.1. can someone help me please?

    i downloaded a couple text tones and since installing 8.1.1, they will not show up under the sounds tab. in fact, they do not show up in my recent purchases on itunes, but when i go to buy them again, it says that i have already bought this tone. I just want to use the tones i paid for as the tones on my phone. not asking much.... thanks for the help. i hope someone can help me get the tones working. thank you.

    This was happening to me too but only for some of my songs. I have a mac so I dunno about PCs, but for most of my ringtones I had to create an ACC version in itunes to make them short enough then turn that into a m4r and those all worked fine. But if the song was already short enough and I didn't create an ACC version and just turned the original into a m4r, then it wouldn't appear in my itunes.
    so if you're on a mac:
    1. go to get info, options, pick when you want the song to start and end.
         Has to be pretty short to work, 30 second or less is good
         if it's already short enough that's fine
    2. right click and click 'create ACC version'
         a copy with the length you put in will appear, drag that into a folder or whatever and just type in m4r where m4a would be
         still make an ACC version even if it's the right length
    Hopefully this helps someone else.

    Hi All,
    I am trying to create inbound delivery with reference to Purchase Order.
    While using BBP_INB_DELIVERY_CREATE to create inbound deliveries, the material number is not showing up in the VL33N screen but Material Description is coming.
    As you have also faced same problem,can you please suggest how to resolve this issue?Your help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Priyanka

    Hi,
    This function module doesn't pass Material number while creating the inbound delivery.  Instead you can use the function module GN_DELIVERY_CREATE along with NUMBER_GET_NEXT function module.
    See line number 631 to 656 of include LBBP_SIC_40F02 (Called from Line no 18 of BBP_INB_DELIVERY_CREATE) for more details.
    While using the function module BBP_INB_DELIVERY_CREATE, material number is not passed to the function module (GN_DELIVERY_CREATE) structure field XKOMDLGN-MATNR.

    You should be able to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync them to the iPhone (or you could re-download them directly on the iPhone)
