It makes no sense becuse it didnt do it before DO I disconnec the dvd player and replace it or do you think the problem is the fios box ?? HELP PLEASE someone who is smart soon thanks

Not really! Anyhow, what do you want to achieve. The only things you can access in your iPad outside of using iTunes are photos and videos. [Locate the iPad as any other external device through Windows Eplorer or Finder and dig through the folders.]
You are fortunate that iTunes opens when you connect the iPad since many other users have difficulty in achieving this. It is from there that you can manage what you want synced to the iPad.

New External Drive connected to Time Capsule moving files problem

I have a late 2009 13" unibody MacBook Pro, that I primarily use for video editing/converting. I use my Time Capsule as a network through which I can connect to my external hard drives via USB for videos and such. I've used at least two other external hard drives along with my Time Capsule for a year and a half with very few problems, aside from the inevitable crash of one. Before yesterday, I had a 1TB Western Digital MyBook (http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=210) and a 2TB Verbatim Desktop HD (http://www.verbatim.com/prod/hard-drives/desktop/usb-2.0/) connected through my 1TB Time Capsule and aside from the Verbatim drive being rather sluggish most of the time, everything was working fine.
Yesterday, I got a new external drive, an iOmega MiniMax 2TB (http://go.iomega.com/en-us/products/external-hard-drive-desktop/ultramax-minimax /minimax800/?partner=4760). I spent yesterday and most of today moving files around and whatnot through a wired connection (iOmega via firewire 800, Verbatim via USB, MyBook via USB, and Time Capsule via Ethernet), and everything moved quickly and without any problems.
I hooked my Time Capsule up to my modem, plugged in the iOmega and Verbatim drives via USB to the TC, and started my laptop. When I opened the drives, everything was working fine... And then I tried to move a file to the iOmega drive... I was moving an episode of The Killing. I dragged it into the folder and went to Safari to look something up and suddenly realized ten minutes later that I still hadn't heard the noise telling me that the file had finished. I looked at the move dialogue box and it said "156.8 MB of 323.8 MB - About 10 Seconds". I watched it for another ten minutes and it didn't move. So I clicked cancel move and the rainbow wheel of death came up and I had to force reboot my computer.
When I restarted, I opened up finder to access the drives through my Time Capsule, and it "failed to connect" to my Time Capsule. So I went back into my office to flip the switch on the surge protector in order to restart the process. I turned on my computer and I had no problem accessing my hard drives... Until I tried to move an episode of United States of Tara into the iOmega hard drive. This time, it said, "192.5 MB of 202.6 MB - About 5 Seconds" and completely stopped moving again. And the same thing happened when I clicked the little grey "x" to cancel the move.
I repeated the process several more times with no luck. Then I thought it might help to see if it does the same thing with documents. So I dragged just a random document to the iOmega and it took about 30 seconds, but it did it successfully. So I tried to move the episode of The Killing again and I let it go for, like, 25-30 minutes. After this time, I got a notification from finder saying, "Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "[the file]" can't be read or written. (Error Code -36)". Then when I went back into the "Shared" part of the sidebar to go back into my Time Capsule folder, it said "Connection Failed"
So what exactly does this mean? Are the Time Capsule and iOmega not compatible? Can I only move the files through a wired connection [which would be unfortunate]? Do I need to rejigger the USB configuration? Is the error code just for these two episodes and it's just a random coincidence that it happened the day after I got a new drive?
Thanks for any help anyone can give me!

I have attached the macbook to the tc via ethernet cable. Should I turn off my wireless connection or will itunes recognize to go with the faster connection on it's own?
You MBP will try to connect based on the order of the list of network devices on the System Preferences > Network window. If Ethernet is not at the top of the list, then go ahead and temporarily disable AirPort.
After all this is done will the wireless connection be fast enough for normal itunes operation?
For audio streaming it should be, but just be aware that your iTunes host will have to get the audio source wirelessly from the TC, which in turn will have to get the data from the USB hard drive. Finally, the iTunes host will have to wirelessly stream the iTunes audio via AirTunes to the AirPort Express.

External device connection: RFC Server?

Hello to all,
i'm new here.
I'm facing a new problem i never met before.
I'm on a 4.7 enviroment and i have to interface sap with an external device.
The producers of external device, release an executable file that makes (but i don't kwnow how) the communication from the device and sap.
The only things that i had to do was (following the device documentation):
1. Create a tcp/ip remote destination that point to one external executable (es: Z_EXT_DEVICE --> c:\device\device2sap.exe) (if i double-click on it, it don't do anything)
2. Setup in the external setup device program (setupdevice.exe), the name of the RFC destination (Z_EXT_DEVICE), the sapgateway address (sapgw00) and the sap host address (ex 10.2.4.XX)
(Note that i don't have to specify sap usr/pwd for the connection in any step).
3. Call a simple function module in SAP system in this way:
CALL FUNCTION 'Z_RFC_DATA' DESTINATION 'Z_EXT_DEVICE'
    EXPORTING
      header        = szheader
      data          = szdata
      status        = '0'
      data_len      = szvalue
    IMPORTING
      system           = szretsystem
      code             = szretcode
      ret_text         = szrettext
      header           = szanswerheader
      len_data         = szlendata
      bct_status       = szstatus
      bct_data         = szanswerdata
    EXCEPTIONS
      communication_failure = 1
      system_failure         = 2
      OTHERS                 = 3.
The code of the function module is empty :
FUNCTION Z_RFC_BCT.
""Lokale Schnittstelle:
*" IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(HEADER) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(DATA) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(STATUS) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(DATA_LEN) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*" EXPORTING
*"     VALUE(SYSTEM) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(CODE) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(RET_TEXT) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(HEADER) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(DATA) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(LEN_DATA) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*"     VALUE(STATUS) LIKE BAPIRET2-MESSAGE
*" EXCEPTIONS
*"      COMMUNICATION_FAILURE
*"      SYSTEM_FAILURE
ENDFUNCTION.
After the call of the function module in sap system, magically the importing variables are filled all by values read from the external device. At this point I'd like to ask u some questions :
1. I think that external device program (device2sap.exe) is an RFC server program. Is it right ??
2. How the connection from external executable and sap works if i don't specify usr/pwd in any configuration file? The device    infact, work with every sap (if u execute the three sinple step wrote before)
3. I'd like write a server like that for a different external device. In the old release of sap (4.0,4.5) there was a sap tools (in function module editor SE37) that permitted (starting from a function module), to generate a client or server external program (in C or VB). In 4.7 this functionality is missing. Is there other sap tools that permitt to do the same thing or this functionality is completly lost?? In the second case, do u have some hits that could help me in this step??
4. I'd like to have some documentation about the server program and communication methos between external RFC server program and Sap. Where i can find some good documents that could help me in that task ??
5. I heard about DCOM connector. Where i can find some good documentations that explain how is it , how it works and if it could solve my problem ?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Andrea

Hi, I'm sure the device2sap.exe is developed by a Connector Tools. E.G. .Net Connector, Jco and so on.
So reply your question as following:
1. Yes, in the external application side, it can simulate a RFC server for the SAP to call, just like call to another R3 server.
2. No need on use/pw. it is not DataBase connection, just a RFC connection. The key feature only need is the IP. And you should configure the RFC destination using IP. RFC is a FM call protocol, not to access a DB.
3. Using the Connector tools I mentioned in the former reply. And you can navigate in the .Net Tech Forum in SDN.
4. The guide of Connector Development can be get from SDN, and some sample code will be copy in the install directory, after you installed it.
5. DCOM is the tech used in the former Connector version SAP DCOM conncetor. Now, as the windows is into the Dotnet Time, recommand you to use DotNet Connector.
That's all.   hope it will be helpful

External device connection

Cheers mates,
I have a pc with windows8 Envy17-j010el.
This model has only one input miniack (3.5) headphone / microphone.
When I try to connect to the Routing an external device with a mini-jack cable (3.5), for the record, I have problems in acquiring the sound.
I do not get the signal input.
Someone would know you help me?
Thank you!
Paul

Hi,
Have you used the right cable. Pleae check the end of the following cable, I think it actually has more connectors than your cable.

Slow startup GRUB2 (GPT Hard Driver) external devices connected

Hi,
Anyone know why would GRUB2 init/search/scan external devices on start-up ?
I get a long delay (i.e. an flashing rectangle (or underline, gotta check) (cursor)) as Grub2 starts when I have a CD in my computer and/or when my external Hard Drive is connected.
I suppose it's caused by the external devices, because, when it happens, I hear sequentially my CD being worked on and my external hard drive working, then GRUB is starting (displaying the "Grub Loading..."/"Welcome to Grub" message). When I disconnect my devices and remove my CD, it all goes well and the "Grub Loading..."/"Welcome to Grub" appears nearly instantly.
Anyone who has good knowledge on GRUB2 know what I could do to remove this delay (i.e. don't touch to the devices, let Linux do its job) ?
Thanks,
Totony
EDIT : Apparently, it was the BIOS (Dell's) who was scanning my devices (despite that the boot order had the Internal Hard Driver coming first...). I still got them problem if anyone know why it does that.

How can I share external devices connected to my Mac mini via USB on a wired network.

Own a Mac mini with Mountain Lion. Purchased the server app. The Mac mini is connected to a wired network with Mac’s and Windows machines. I have an external hard drive and 2 printers connected to the MAC mini via USB. I would like to share these devices with other computers on the wired network. Although I have attached similar devices with an airport extreme in the past, I am unable to use a wireless router in this case. Any suggestions on making this work with my current setup?

You don't really even need server app to do this. Simply go to System Preferences | Sharing and turn on both File & Printer sharing. Then, for example, the printer (not relevant what connection it has but obviously USB is fine) will be available to everyone on the wired network.
That's all there is to it - unless I missed/misunderstood something re: your setup which seems very straightforward.

Charger dies when external devices connected or keyboard used

My wife ran the battery down on her 1.8G PowerBook, while on travel with Bluetooth & AirPort on. Returning home she connected it as normal to her remote keyboard, internet, printers and external monitor. When attached, the charging indicator would first be green for a second, then orange for about 5 seconds, then off. Disconnecting the keyboard & monitor, and turning Bluetooth & Airport off allowed it to continue to charge (orange) until the mouse or keyboard was used, then the charging indicator would go out again.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Henry

You don't mention how long you attempted to charge with nothing connected. Sometimes a battery can be so low that it needs to charge without powering anything...in other words, try charging for a couple hours or overnight with the computer off and nothing connected to it other than the power cord. An SMC reset prior to doing this may also help. If the problem is simply that the battery was very low, the combination of SMC reset and overnight charging with no power drain should get you back to normal.
If that doesn't work, you may need a new battery.

Is the Equium P200-1ED capable of powering USB devices connected to it?

(1) Possibly related to my previous question is anyone able to confirm whether the Toshiba Equium P200-1ED is able to power external devices connected to it via its USB ports?
(2) Can all 6 USB ports be used to simultaneously power 6 external USB devices?
What is wrong?
Please advise.

I presume you ask again for the advice related to this question:
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=115026#115026
From my knowledge all USB ports supports the USB standard and provides 500mA.
But sometimes an USB device needs more as 500mA and then you will have to use an external power supply for the USB device.
Sometimes its advisable to use an USB hub which supports an own power supply.
> (2) Can all 6 USB ports be used to simultaneously power 6 external USB devices?
As I said, possibly some 3rd external USB devices would need more as 500mA and in such case you should use an external power supply for the USB devices.

How to make external devices (like iPods, etc.) NOT mount as connected drives when plugged in via USB to a Mac?

If I plug my iPod (or a thumb drive or whatever) to my Mac's USB port, the device appears as a icon representing a connected drive on my Mac's Desktop.
This is normal, expected behavior.
HOWEVER, in some cases, I'd prefer that the device not "mount" as a connected external drive.
With thumb drives or external USB drive, of course, I want them to "mount" so I can transfer files on or off them -- that would be the only possible reason to connect an external drive like that.
But with other Apple devices like iPods or iPhones, there are TWO possible reasons to connect them to a Mac: either to "sync" them or transfer files on/off them; OR, to simply recharge the device's battery. (Or, both sync and recharging functions at once.)
For those people who use their Apple devices in ways that require transferring files (i.e. most people), then having the device "mount" as a connected device is a desirable behavior.
But in my circumstance (and I bet there are a lot of people in a similar circumstance), I have no need or desire to transfer any data to or from my device every time I plug it into my Mac: I'm plugging it in SOLELY to recharge the device's battery.
Specifically, in my case, I have a 6th-gen iPod Nano, and I use it exclusively as an FM radio and a pedometer. I don't have any mp3s or songs or any other external files loaded on it, nor do I plan to add any in the future.
The only reason I ever plug it into my Mac is so that I can recharge the iPod's battery.
But the "problem," which is a minor one I admit but a problem nonetheless, is that every time I connect the iPod to the Mac, the iPod appears as a "connected drive" icon on my Mac's desktop. Which means that I'm not supposed to just unplug the iPod when I'm done -- first, I have to find its icon on the Mac Desktop, and then drag the icon to the Trash, to "unmount" it -- and only then can I freely unplug the iPod without getting an error message telling me that I shouldn't just disconnect connected drives without first properly unmounting them.
This would be bothersome enough if I only had to do it once per connection, but in the case of the iPod Nano, there's no way to tell how recharged it is while it is in the act of recharging, so that to see if I'm "done," I have to unplug it, check the battery status, and if it's not fully charged, re-plug it back in. So that each time I recharge it, I often have to unmount the drive several times, depending on how impatient I am.
There has to be a way to prevent the mounting of the drives of devices that one is connecting simply for the purpose of recharging. But how?
Strangely, I also have an old iPhone, and when I plug that in for recharging in the same way, it DOESN'T appear as a connected drive on the Desktop. I'm not sure how I managed to do this, but long ago I must have changed some setting or preference for this to happen. And by now I've forgotten what I did.
I'd prefer that I could change the "mount/don't-mount" setting on a device-by-device basis -- i.e. make it such that this particular iPod doesn't load, but perhaps a different iPod would load -- but if that's not possible, then is there a way to stop ALL iPods and iPhones from loading as connected drives when plugged in?
(I'm not talking about appearing as connected drives within iTunes -- I'm talking about appearing as an icon on the Desktop in the Finder.)
And please don't tell me to just buy a wall charger! I prefer to recharge off my computer if possible, using the charging cord that came with the iPod.
I presume there's some simple setting to toggle this on or off, but I haven't yet found it. Any clues would be appreciated. Thanks!

Well, I already know about that Finder Preferences option, but that is not what I'm looking for. Why not? Because I still need CDs and DVDs to appear on the Desktop and mount properly! If I uncheck the "CDs, DVDs and iPods" option, then I lose the ability to access CDs and DVDs, which creates a whole new problem for me. What I want is to not mount iPods only -- actually, what I really want is to not mount this particular iPod -- but if that level of specificity is not possible, then I want to exclude just iPods from mounting, without also condemning CDs and DVDs (or whatever) to invisibility.
Also, I was confused by the way the Preference is worded: It says "Show these items on the Desktop," with a series of options to check. But this phraseology seems to mean that the unchecked items will still "mount," they simply won't appear as Desktop icons. One would still have to "Eject" them using a menu command, rather than dragging the icon to the Trash -- right? Or am I mistaken, and is the Preference Pane simply badly worded, and when they say "Show these items on the Desktop," what they really mean is "mount these external devices as connected drives." So that if a category is unchecked, then they won't load as external drives at all?
But if so, then what purpose could possibly be served by inserting a CD or DVD that is not recognized by the computer? And if it isn't recognized, then it would seem that there would be no way to ever Eject the CD or DVD disk. Right?
Thus, if I uncheck that Finder Preference box you suggest, one of two outcomes will result:
-- Either CD, DVDs and iPods are still mounted, they just won't appear as icons on the Desktop; but they would still need to be Ejected via a menu command, which doesn't solve my problem.
-- Or, CDs, DVDs and iPods are not mounted or recognized by the computer at all, which means that if I insert a disk into the disk drive, it will get stuck there forever, since there's no way to Eject it, since the OS doesn't recognize that it's even there. Which is thereby a new problem.
Either way, I'd have a problem! Or...? Clarification, anyone?

Studio Creator, Socket Connection to External Device

I am porting an existing & successful project from Netbeans 3.6 into Studio Creator to take advantage of some of the tools in the IDE for this application. The project requires opening a socket connection from the Server PC to an external Device (PLC) that is a Client on a static IP & a dedicated fixed port.
I am struggling to get past some security settings specific to AccessControlExceptions. Here is the code method being used to test:
public String button1_action() {
// Call methods to open connection, init streams, send command, and close connection.
try {
// Open Socket up and accept client connection
ipSocketObject = new ServerSocket(port);
bfSocket = ipSocketObject.accept();
// Establish Streams
is = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(bfSocket.getInputStream()));
os = new PrintWriter(bfSocket.getOutputStream(), true);
System.out.println("Got to here...");
// Clear the msCounter #13002
os.println("r13002=0");
pattern = "13002";
do{ret=is.readLine();} while ((ret.indexOf(pattern)) ==-1);
is.close();
os.close();
bfSocket.close();
ipSocketObject.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
The Socket Connection is established, but the command string is not processed before Studio Creator generates a AccessControlException Fault. I have experiemented putting in a SocketPermission statement with out success.
Is anyone aware of some sample code I might be able to review for opening socket connections to clients in a Studio Creator Application? Please excuse this request if too rudimentary- I am an Industrial Controls guy by trade... :)

Sorry I know of no such application at this time, and unfortunately have not done socket work myself for many moons....
What JDK was your previous application written under? I googled for AccessControlException and socket and seems that sometimes accounts for some issues... you can also search for that combination in the forum advanced search and might find something there.... one more long shot suggestion based upon your statement "the command string is not processed".... could it be that you need to flush the stream...?
Sorry I don't have more to offer...

Although when I connect my iPod it's in the process of syncing, so many songs in I get a pop up saying could not copy to my iPod as xyz song title could not be read or written. I click ok for this pop up to dissapear and then another pop up appears saying could not coyp to iPod because of unknown error.!!! Help I'm going crazy.

Did you go into iTunes to change the location of your media files? if not you will need to go into iTunes and click on preference and select the advance tab then click the iTunes Media folder location. Select the location of your on external hard drive.

I just bought a new external monitor (ASUS), and I have DVI adapter plug. When I connect it with my Macbook pro - the monitor remain black (even tho it is 'on')

I just bought a new external monitor (ASUS), and it have DVI and VGA plugs. I bought the DVI adapter to connect with my macbook pro laptop. But the external monitor remain black… so I turn it off then turn it back on, it said "No VGA signal". Does it means I have to use VGA adapter instead? I am not sure how it work, I am very new to it… I hope you can help me out!
Thanks!
