OSX 10.3.9 does not recognize Memerex 2GB USB Travel Drive

My USB and firewire card is operating properly and recognizes the USB printer and keyboard but does not regognize the USB flash memory drive.
Do PC formatted flash memory drives not function with OSX 10.3.9?
I was hoping to use the flash drive to do nothing more than move jpg files from Mac to PC.

I have SanDisk USB 4 Gb flash and was going to use it for exactly the thing as you do and ran into same problem. However somewhere I read that the flash drive can be reformatted (I think MSDOS) so it will be recognized on both PC and Mac. But since the prices of the flash drives dropped so much I just ran down to Staples and got another identical SanDisk flash and now use one for my PC and one for my Mac.

IMac G5 with OSX 10.5.8 does not recognize my Western Digital external drive containing the majority of my music library. Is there any way to access that drive and recover the music stored there?

I have an iMac G5 with OSX 10.5.8 that does not recognize my Western Digital external drive. I had no problems with this until I upgraded to 10.5. Most of my music library is stored on the external drive. Is there any way to access it to recover the music?

How is it connected? Have you tried different port? How about logging in as a different user then trying to mount the drive.

my itunes 9.2 (mac osx 10.4.11) does not recognize iphone 4s

Since you're running iTunes 9.2, your Mac has a G4 or better CPU. You need to purchase and install Mac OS X 10.5(G4 or G5) or Mac OS X 10.6(Intel) from a DVD. Mac OS X 10.6 DVDs are free for paid MobileMe members.

MacBook pro does not recognize my WD external hard drive anymore

I use TIme Machine on my WD external hard drive. Everything was working great up until about a month ago. My MacBook Pro does not recognize my external hard drive anymore...I have done nothing differently than usual. I did search in previous discussions and tried rebooting both the hard drive and the computer.
The USB port is fine as it does recognize another external hard drive and also pen drives....Please help! I haven't backed up in a month and need to figure out how to get this to work soon. Should I call WD?

Does the WD drive show in Disk Utility?
Many times, a USB port simply cannot provide the power a hard drive needs. It is not uncommon for any electric motor to draw more power as it ages. A drive that worked before can stop working when it gets older because age has made it tak more power than any USB port can supply. There are a couple of cheap things to try:
1) A "Y" USB cable---two plugs go to the computer and one to hte drive, giving a power boost.
1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
2) a POWERED USB hub. That takes the power delivery burden off the USB port so it can deal with data.
WD bare drives are fine but their enclosures are not very Mac-friendly. One thing that has reported helping is to get rid of the proprietary formating that WD puts on their drives. If you don't have to share the drive with a Windows computer, use Disk Utility to erase and reformat the drive to Macintosh Extended Journaled.

My iMac does not recognize or see an external drive.

My iMac, Mac (27-inch, Late 2013), I bought in August 2014. Its SN is: C02MT0YWF8J4/OS X Yosemite. Version 10.10.1
Could you please help me with the installation of the reference external drive. Supplier gives instruction for Windows only. When I follow the window instruction on my iMac, the system does not recognize or see the drive. When I use Apple>About this Mac>System Reports>Hardware>USB, I think the following info describes the Drive, is it?:

I would greatly appreciate some help.
Thank you in advance.

The problem is NOT the fact that it is a USB 3.0 drive, as USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0. The problem is specific to Toshiba Canvio portable drives. They only work if you use a micro-USB2 cable instead of the included USB 3.0 cable. This problem does NOT affect other USB 3.0 portable drives (Seagate, Western Digital, etc.), and they work fine with USB 3.0 cables.
Once again, you need a micro-USB2 cable for the Toshiba to mount.

My PC does not recognize ipad mini as a drive

When I connect my ipad mini to my PC with the provided USB, my PC does not recognize my ipad mini as a hard drive. Under devices on my PC the ipad mini is identified as "Apple Mobile Device". The driver on my PC is "Apple mobile device USB driver". It states that it is working properly and there are no updates for the driver. How can I have my PC recognize the ipad mini as a hard drive?

You can't. It cannot be used as a disk drive. It is accessible through iTunes, only.

Preview in OSX 10.7.5 does not recognize RAW files from Canon EOS 6D

What must I do so that I can see downloaded RAW photos from my new Canon 6D in "Preview" in my iMac's OSX 10.7.5? Preview does show photos from my earlier Canons fine. My older version of Aperture can open the 6D's files, as can, of course, Photoshop.

I could be mistaken, but I believe that Preview does not support RAW - only Aperture, a newer iPhoto version, and third party software will handle it. Does your Canon come with the Digital Photo Professional software from Canon? That should be compatible with RAW as well.
Mountain Lion appears to have more compatibilities:

T60 does not recognize xp disc in cd drive

What could cause this?
Trying to install XP from CD where failed HD has been replaced. BIOS recognizes new HD & CD drive, but then error "no valid OS found". Per Lenovo Article here I disabled dual mode for cpu & have CD drive as first boot. The Lenovo Article also says to get the Intel file 'Matrix Storage Manager Driver' (for a 'diskette'). But this is NOT a boot disk. For use during OS installation, so no help to me where OS not even recognized!
I actually have 2 machines that present this, so highly unlikely it is a CD drive problem. & OC have checked it is not the disc.
Internet search shows a lot of old posts on this problem, & maybe not just T60. Much confusion, no good solution. I want to say Shame on Lenovo. What a crazy issue to have!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks, I had already realized had to go to USB & used a CD drive OK. Sometimes seem to be path issues w. usb installs. I also had to switch to Compat Mode so XP could deal w SATA.
I accepted this as a "Solution" though more accurate would be "Work-around". I have nowhere seen any legit explanation why oe CD/DVD does not work for this specific purpose. It did another install A-OK once the OS was on! ?! I never needed the Ijntel Matrix Blah, Blah recommended here by Lenovo. They are focused on the wrong problem.

Itunes still does not recognize my cd/dvd writer drive Apple Support Forum

After following the instruction in the Apple Support Forum, by reinstalling iTunes, accessing REGEDIT and removing the lower filter key (the upper filter key was never there to begin with) and rebooting, iTunes will still not recognize either of my cd/dvd rom/writer drives. The drives work perfectly fine for importing and burning to using Real Player and Windows Media Player. I tried the repair function in the control panel for iTunes and also updated the firmware and driver of the cd/dvd roms and still nothing.
Does anyone else have any other ideas? I ran the diagnostic and here is what turned up:

Lion does not recognizes the superdrive as external drive

Hello,
After having replaced my superdrive for a SSD in my macbook, I look for a solution to retrieve the original superdrive in Lion.
the superdrive is now contained in a slim box firstcom. Each time i plug the drive via USB, it starts normally but i have no software able to detect it (even VLC)
I already did this method but with no success : http://macenstein.com/default/2011/07/how-to-get-your-external-super-drive-worki ng-in-lion/
That would be great if somebody can give me some help to solve it.
Thank you for your responses.

I do not think, that replacing the superdrive by another drive is a hack. It probably does not influence the warranty. Changing the HDD by a another HDD or SSD does void your warranty, I think.
Can you not even "mount" the external superdrive with Disk Utility?
But I have another question for you: do you use the SSD for the OS? If yes: why did you not put it in the place of the HDD and the HDD in the superdrive slot (if both are the 2.5" type)? Because with earlier MBP's the Superdrive Sata connection has a lower speed than the HDD Sata connection, which means that you can have even more speed advantages by putting the SSD in the HDD place and place the slower HDD in the Superdrive location.
But, like ds said, on Bmer's forum you will certainly find the answers on your issue.

G4 does not recognize external enclosure with old drive from my MacBookPro

I recently upgraded my MacbookPro (OS 10.6.8, version 5,5) hard drive and I put MBP original drive in a Sabrent 2.5" USB-SATA hard drive enclosures. This USB external drive booted right up on the MBP, all files intact. One reason for the new MBP drive was to use the orignial drive as increased storage on my G4 (which has a working USB 2.0 card). My other USB external drives work fine on the G4, so the card works.
The Sabrent USB enclosure is not recognized by the G4. I am hoping to not have to reformat the drive until I am completely confident my new HD in the MBP works well (it is fast!). The Sabrent enclosure (EC-UST25) comes with a funky two-headed USB cable to plug in a second port if there is not enough power coming from the USB port to power the unit. I used both USB plugs in the G4 USB board, restarted several times with no success.
So the question is, will this hard drive (a Toshiba, I believe) word as an external USB drive on the G4? Do I need to reformat it in some special way?
Thanks for any and all help!

The Sabrent USB enclosure is not recognized by the G4.
The chipset of that controller is likely the issue.
Either that or the fact that it is bus powered. An external power supply might help, but G4 were never intended to use those enclosures.
One reason for the new MBP drive was to use the orignial drive as increased storage on my G4
As is, read only. MBP use GUID partition sheme, PPC Macs (G4, G5) use APM.
To write or boot to the drive, reformat is necessary.

My MacBook (late 2008, running OSX 10.9.3) does not recognize my Bose Wave Bluetooth adapter

I have a Bose Wave radio with the auxillary bluetooth adapter. My iPod Touch (iOS 5.1.1) works perfectly with it, but my MacBook doesn't even recognize it.

I figured it out...
On your Wave III remote, press "Aux" until "Bluetooth" appears, then hold down the presets "5" button until "Discoverable" appears. Open your mac's bluetooth in system preferences and it should show up and pair. It worked perfectly for me.

.Mac Backup does not recognize Iomega Rev USB drive. HELP!

1) When I use .Mac Backup and configure destination to backup to Iomega Rev USB drive, Backup cannot recognize the Rev drive. It sees this drive as "Unknown volume". What's wrong? How do I resolve this problem so Backup can recognize Rev drive? Strange thing is that Rev drive shows up on the Mac desktop okay. In other words, the Mac desktop recognize Rev drive okay but not the Backup software.
2) What do you recommend for a reliable external hard drive for backup?
3) How do I send email to Apple Support? I tried .Mac site but could not find their support email address.
Thanks.

Measurement and Automation Explorer does not recognize two identical USB 3.0 cameras at once. How do I fix this?

I am running a set up which uses 2 identical USB Point Grey cameras of the same model (FL3-U3-13S2M-CS). Both USB cameras are plugged into the computer (blue USB cables).
When I open up Measurement and Automation Explorer and look under "NI-IMAQdx Devices" in the configuration tree, LavVIEW only recognizes one of the two USB cameras. Measurement and Automation Explorer only lists one camera, in which it recognizes it as "Point Grey Camera". Why this is occurring? How can I get LabVIEW to recognize two separate cameras of the same model?

That's about the old NI-IMAQ for USB cameras. IMAQdx has built in support for DirectShow connected cameras. IMAQdx should be able to use more than one DirectShow camera at the same time, but the Point Grey DirectShow driver may have some issues.
