Quicksilver modem: not working? not detected?

My new-to-me Quicksilver 2002 dual 1-Ghz CPU arrived yesterday and all's well. Running Leopard 5.3.
I live in the country, with only dialup available. The modem shows on "About this Mac" but there's no connecting, no modem squealing: nothing.
How do I determine if the modem is good? I'm using phone line that works on another computer. I've checked all the settings in preferences: all are set to known-good settings.
TIA
J

I'd opt for the Best Data USB modem. As for user reviews of the Apple USB modem, you'll find a lot of negative feedback (check the bottom of this page). I tried out the Best Data "Smart One" USB modem and was pleased with its operation, in that it compared favorably to the performance of my other external 56K Mac modems. For less than ½ the cost of the Best Data modem, I ended up using this USB-to-Serial adapter and connected one of my US Robotics 56K (onboard controller & DSP) modems to it. Of the several brands I owned/used, I always considered the US Robotics modems to be the best for dial-up service, especially large downloads. The external US Robotics 56K modem has a detachable cable, so instead of using its included Mac cable (DB-25 to mini DIN-8), I connected a PC modem cable (DB-25 to DB-9) to it, enabling connection to the USB adapter. After some trial and error with resetting a couple of the modem's DIP switches and modifying the modem script, it worked quite well and provided the same stable performance via USB, as it originally did when connected to my legacy Macs' modem ports. An external Mac modem having a permanently-attached cable with the round (mini DIN-8) plug for Mac serial ports won't work with these adapters. For ease of configuration, the Best Data USB modem will be plug-and-play. Compare prices for it, prior to purchasing one.

Internal modem not detecting dial tone

I have an iMac G3 CRT 333MHz (Lime) which is having trouble connecting to my dial-up internet connection. I am fearing that my internal modem is 'burnt out', and am wondering if anyone out there has any additional troubleshooting tips, or any advice on purchasing a new external modem.
The trouble started after a lightning storm, which also disrupted internet connections for my roommate's PC (I don't know exactly how he fixed his, but he is connected via a DSL modem and says he simply restored some modem drivers). I have noticed, however, that he removed his 56k modem...
When I attempt to dial-up from my Mac, I get a message stating "Modem did not detect a dial-tone or the line is currently in use..." I have checked and double checked that the phone line does indeed have a dial tone, and tried connecting through through various outlets throughout the house. I've disconnected all other phone hardware (except the DSL filters) and reached the same result.
I am currently running OSX (10.3.9), and also attempted to dial out after restarting in 9.2.2. (Same result). After that, I dug out my install CD and reinstalled 10.3 (same result)
From each OS, I've run system profiler and recieved no unusual information about the internal modem. The computer definitely senses that I HAVE a modem (Apple Vsn 0007-1,9/2/1998 v.90) That modem simply can't seem to detect the dial tone.
I have also confirmed my modem settings, tried checking and unchecking the 'sound' and 'wait for dial tone' boxes. My internet provider is NetZero, so I have attempted to dial in using their software, as well as directly through Internet Connect. All attempts return the same message. (and the NetZero account is still active, I have accessed it from two separate computers).
Any thoughts out there if there are any further settings or or software/OS variations I should try? Or are my suspicions valid that the storm somehow fried the modem (there were no power interruptions during the storm... only modem troubles)
My next step might be to find an external modem. I've not seen any Mac-compatible 56k modems in stores. There is a Apple USB Modem in the Apple store, but it requires OS 10.4.3 and a computer 'without a built-in modem', so I don't think that will help me. I've also considered using Airport to share my roommate's DSL connection, but I believe that my model of iMac is not airport compatible...
I also have a dead iMac in the closet (DV model) with a blown ethernet port, broken fan, and damaged hard drive. I'm not above cannibalizing either machine to get the other working until I can afford a new G5...
Any thoughts, suggestions, or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated!!

The only thing I can think of is to go in to the modem settings and choose ignore dial-tone. That way even if it's not getting a good tone the iMac will continue to try to connect. This is also important if you have a voice mail system that varies the dialling tone whne you have a message as I know that stops my father's Win98 box connecting to the Internet unless the equivalent option is checked.
You can update your email address to a current one here. If the Apple ID (i.e. the one you login with) is old don't worry that's pretty irrelevant.

Help! Modem Not Detected!

need help. I just got my iMac today and I installed the AOL 5.0 thing. The AOL program isn't detecting the intenal modem. It is V.90 I supose, I do not see the modem cotrol panel in the apple menu. I tried all the apple internal modems form the list, I pluged in the phone line and I is saying Does Not Detect. I am not on my iMac so I can't take any confusing comands right now. Thanks. PLEASE HELP!

Tiger -
Let's try one more thing. Open Macintosh HD. Scroll down to System Folder. Open System Folder and scroll down to Control Panels. Open Control Panels and see if Modem Control Panel is in the lineup. It's probably not since it doesn't show under the 'Apple'.
Just under Control Panels should be Control Panels (Disabled). Open that and see if Modem is in there. If it is, drag it to the closed Control Panels folder and do a restart.
If it's not in the disabled panels folder, do a Sherlock search for Modem and see what comes up. I guess it's possible that the modem panel has been put somewhere else in the HD. If it shows up, drag it to the closed Control Panels folder as above.
If the modem panel is totally absent from the HD, about all I can think of is to perform a Restore using the original CDs that came with the machine. But before that, I'll pose the problem to the larger gang here.

Dial-up Modem not detected

Problem:
My system isn't recognizing/finding my internal modem.
What I have:
wvdial and gnome-ppp set up. From the Wiki, I gave all users permission to use wvdial.
What I know:
I ran PuppyOS and was able to get the modem to work - so it's there and functions. (PuppyOS uses wvdial) The modem is at /dev/ttys_PCTELO and I have an init string (though it's a bit different than the one gnome-ppp shows.)
Question:
How do I get Arch to find the modem?

Maybe you could take a look at:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dia … aler_HOWTO
It (supposedly) enables you to connect without a dialer.

New internal modem not detected

I installed a US Robotics v.92 faxmodem (model 5660A) into a dual 1.8 G5, 10.4.3. This computer came without an internal modem, but I need to send faxes occasionally.
The modem installed into a PCI slot. In the "About This Mac" apple menu selection, no PCI or modem info appears. I have tried resetting the PRAM, searching the US Robotics and Apple web sites for drivers (nothing for Macs.)
The modem was sold as a Windows and Mac compatible modem. Any suggestions?

Hi Shau,
Welcome to the forum.
USB DSL modems are notoriously buggy when it comes to OSX. Continuous need for updating drivers which, more often than not, cause more problems than they solve. My advice would be to invest in an ethernet adsl router. They do not require drivers, you just plug them in and with a minimum setup (literally seconds) you're up and running. Your ISP may be able to exchange the USB modem with an ethernet adsl router for you at no additional cost. Failing that you can buy one for literally tens of pounds.
More info on routers can be found here:

Modem Not Detected! UPDATE

Ok I posted this a while ago but I selected my internal modem for AOL V.5.0 (OS 8.6) and it wasn't detected(Trust me I tried everything). Well I was reading my Internal Modem read me amd it sasid that in the modem control panel it should say "Connect via Internal Modem" and mine says "Connect via <no serial ports available>". Ok. I think something fishys going on. I can't select from a list near the Connect via thing. My system profiler says it detects my modem. Can someone help? Please?
In loving memory of TP2GO

I read back through as many of your past posts on this subject as I could find, and there's one subject missing that used to get a lot of posts here. AOL tended to corrupt the Modem Preferences, or replace them ... 'can't remember which.
The clean system install that Ron suggested is probably best, but you can go to the Preferences Folder in your System Folder and throw out the file labled "Modem Preferences", and anything to do with AOL Dialer. Restart the computer and see if there are some selections in your Modem Control Panel.
Instructions for a clean install are on the OS CD in a read-me file.

Faxing - Modem Does Not Detect Dial Tone

Hello Everyone,
I suddenly have a need to send and receive a Fax. I have a phone line plugged into the modem port on my G4 and on trying to send a text fax, not much happens. Error message to the effect that the modem is not detecting a dial tone. Same cable that works fine on the phone itself.
Can someone either help with an answer or direct me to a page with more detailed instructions than the "Help" file is providing?
John

I have the same problem. I thought I would begin to use my several years old Powerbook to send a simple fax. As it is I have to use my old G3 to fax. Even with Faxstf pro on I still can't get it to work. Fax STF says that the modem is only set to receive and I just cannot change it in the settings. I've trashed the preferences and the program. I am at a loss after having spent a day trying to figure this out. I am on a dedicated phone line that works just fine. I would really like to just simply fax from my powerbook G4. The modem is as follows:
Modem Model: LastDash
Interface Type: USB
Modulation: V.92
SKU Name: UCJ
Hardware Version: 4.0
Firmware Version: APPLE VERSION 2.6.6
Driver: InternalUSBModem.kext (v2.6.6)
Country: B5 (United States, Latin America)

MAC pro 2013 model not detecting E122 USB Modem

Hi,
For some reason, the light of USB modem doesnt glow, and neither is it detected. But when the Mac is restarted, the USB Modem does lit, and shows signs of being detected. Tried downloading Mobile Partner, but since the Modem is not detected, nothing proceeds. It worked well on my Windows PC.

Contact the vendors technical support unit. Because it may work on a PC, it does not follow that it will work on a Mac.
Ciao.

Airport extreme not detecting ethernet from modem

Hello everyone,
I'm hoping someone can help me out with this because I give up on trying.
I have a 5th generation Airport Extreme hooked up to a Ubee D3.0 cable modem and I use it for my home's wifi. Recently, the AE stopped working (blinking amber light) and airport utility says the WAN ethernet cable was not plugged in (although it was). I've tried resetting everything multiple times, tried a new ethernet cable, etc. I was fairly sure it was a problem with the AE because I can plug my laptop directly into my cable modem and get a wired connection.
So, I took the AE into Apple and they gave me a new one. No luck though--still having the same problem. Basically, when I plug the ethernet from my modem into the Airport Extreme, the green light in the ethernet port doesn't light up and no connection is detected.
What is even weirder is that I tried hooking up the same Airport Extreme to a different modem and it worked perfectly--no problems establishing a connection.
So I can get a direct wired connection from my Ubee modem to my laptop, which shows the modem is working.
And, the AE works with another modem, which seems to show the AE is working also.
But when I use the Ubee modem and the AE together--nothing. HELP! Thanks

Based on your description, the WAN port is damaged and in need of repair. A shop will need to check to see how far the voltage surge got into the device. I am not certain whether Apple offers repairs on the AirPort Extreme or not. You might want to check with an Apple store on that and have them check the device as well.

Hard disk not detected once, but now working?

Hi,
I'm Zak, a bit of techie when it comes to playing with software, or re-assembling computers and whatnot. Unfortunately I've got no clue about some other things.
A bit of quick history on my notebook: The fan has been making terrible noises the last few weeks. Initially I thought it was some dust so I got some duster. A lot of dust came out, so that can only be good, but the noises came back after a few days. After some searching I figured the other logical explanation was probably the hard drive going bad. I'm hesitant to send it back to HP because I use it for all my university work and it would really set me back a few weeks to not have it.
So, a few days ago, I booted up my notebook to a "hard drive not detected" - or very similar - message. There were a few options, for f1-f4, they were system information, and 3 different tests (I think). I ran the tests, each one came back fine, noting that there was no OS installed, or hard disk to boot from. I rebooted because I hadn't quite seen it boot up, and wanted to see if there were any other options. Turns out, it started up fine. I restarted once more and again, it did fine.
Next, I scrambled around, backing up all my data, getting together warranty info, installing the HP Support Assistant, etc. I ran all the tests from the Support Assistant and there were no problems detected. Since then I've just been hibernating the notebook when I stop using it, and I haven't encountered any unusual trouble. It all seems fine, but my warranty expires Dec 7th of this year. Is it safe for me to assume the "hard drive not detected" error was just a single misfire? I've read a lot of threads and FAQs on it and it doesn't sound like something that just happens once and goes away. On the other hand, I've never had to use a warranty so am unsure quite how the process works, and like I said, sending it anywhere would put me back in my work.
For the sake of a full post, I have an HP G62-367DX Notebook, running on Windows 7 64-bit OS, and as far as I know there were no changes made between the error and my prior boot. If there's any other information I can provide, just let me know.
Cheers, thank you very much for any assistance, and good day
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The tests from the Assistant are not as comprehensive or reliable as the full hard drive test in the BIOS....tap F10 as you power up, go in there and find the hard drive test. Run the long form test and see what is says. It is not unusual for hard drive issues to start as intermittent and gradually get more frequent. If your drive passes the long form test you can fairly safely assume it was a one-time gremlin of some sort, but it is still a real good idea to back up. I like the idea of the online backup services and I will name Carbonite only because it is well known and not as an endorsement. There are several more and an external drive is also a good idea.
You cannot put off a reboot forever; you are going to have to confront the issue at some point.

WRT54GS with Mac OS 10.6.8 and RCN cable modem not working

Hello,
I have a Linksys WRT54GS, version 6 with Mac OS X (version 10.6.8) hooked up to a Scientific Atlantic cable modem, with RCN as the ISP.
Recently, RCN had some network issues, and so I had to power down and reset my modem. The modem is working fine now -- no problems at all when the Mac is connected direclty to the modem.
The router's network is OK in that I can connect the Mac wirelessly to the network, but I can't connect to the internet through the router (through neither the wireless or wired connection).
I have downloaded the latest firmware update for the router, following the Linksys site instructions, but this has not helped me solve the problem.
Does anyone have any advice as to what I should do? I did call Linksys tech support on the advice of RCN, and they said that the router does appear to be working (power, WLAN, and Internet lights are on), but they would be charging me nearly the cost of a new router to fix the problem.
Any advice would be appreciated!

Since you upgraded the Router WRT54GS with the latest firmware so once reset the Router and power cycle the whole network… Then connect the Modem with Linksys Router on the Internet Port and then connect any one computer to any one of the Ethernet port on the Router [Numbered – 1, 2, 3 and 4]… Let me know the RCN connection is a DSL connection or cable connection…
So if you have a DSL connection you can refer to this link:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&login=1&vw=1&app=search&articleid=4020&userrole=Linksy...
So if you have a Cable Internet Connection you can refer to this link:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&vw=1&articleid=3686
As far as the wireless is concern:
# Open up the browser and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page…
# Then Click on wireless Tab create the Wireless Network Name SSID and select the channel to 6, 9, and 11… Click Save Settings...
# Then Click on Wireless Security sub tab and select the security mode and provide the password as per the requirement… Click Save Settings...
After doing the settings try to connect the preferred network on the wireless devices and check the connectivity….

Airport card works in 10.1, HW test passes, but not detected at all in 10.4

Ok, Hi. I'll first admit this is my first post so go easy on me!
I just bought a used iBook G3 and it was working fine for a while until about a month ago when all kinds of weird things stared happening. Some of which those problems I solved from reading previous topics from these forums - but anyways, I'll skip all my other problems and get right to my current one.
First off here is the complete specs:
12.1" iBook G3 "dual USB series"
500MHz PPC processor
128+256MB ram = 384MB RAM
15GB hard drive (NOW 160GB HARD DRIVE!)
No Airport Card (NOW ONE HAS BEEN ADDED!)
Multiple OS's - OS9 and 10.1 were included (have original disks)
I also have a set of 10.4 Tiger CD-ROM disks
Anyways, here is basically what is happening. I bought an Airport card off eBay for my iBook. I installed it about a week ago. I booted into 10.4 Tiger and it did not detect the card. Tried to do the manual setup with the wizard and it said there was no card attached. I went into the system profiler and is said No info available under the airport section. I then booted to my "apple hardware test disk" and ran the full/extended test. It passed everything (including the Airport card) so I know that is not the problem. I then booted into OS X 10.1 and lone behold the card is detected and is working without any fooling around with! Instant wireless internet! So I know that the card is working, but I want to use it in Tiger as 10.1 is almost worthless. So I boot into Tiger again knowing that the card is working, and Tiger still does not recognize it! I even booted into OS 9 and it detected the card (although it was having some connection problems, but at least I know that it IS detecting it.)
Here is what I tried (so you can cross these suggestions off your list! lol)
I've deleted the Airport "ktext" files, etc. (can't remember the actual names of the files, but I've cleared all of those caches and still no luck.)
I've zapped PRAM
I rest NVRAM
I rest the PMU.
I did a Arcive and install of 10.4
...All of which did not help. Again, the card worked in 10.1, but 10.4 is completely blind and can't find it!
Now we are caught up to today. I was having many other odd problems and it all lead to my hard drive probably being bad. So toady I finally bit the bullet and bought a new hard drive from Best Buy. It took me forever to install it, but I did it, and it works! Now I have 160GB (make that only 128GB detected) of space. I partitioned it 4 ways as well:
"Tiger" - 80GB
"Other OS" - 30GB
"Extra Space 1" - 10GB
"Extra Space 2" - 8GB
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx- 128GB Total
So now that I have a new hard drive (that I was told would fix all of my problems because my old one was "bad" I thought I would have it working today, but no. So I put in the brand new drive, partitioned it, booted off my Tiger disk, installed it on the 80GB partition. The install went fine. So I now have 10.4 on the new drive. Seems to be a lot faster then my old drive! I did the combo updater (which I downloaded on my iMac and transfered to a flash drive and loaded on to my iBook) Ran the updater, and now it is running 10.4.11! But then I realized, the Airport card is STILL not detected in Tiger!!! - I thought the new hard drive would solve all my problems as I was staring from scratch, but no, there is still a problem!
I ran the Apple hardware test disk again, full test, and it said my Airport card is still fine. I didn't reinstall 10.1 yet (nor did I want to, I was hoping Tiger would work for what I wanted) but it seems now that I might have to go back and install 10.1 again. I don't know what it will prove - other then it will work again, but I don't want to use 10.1 so I'm not going to bother doing all that again.
Anyways, after looking into this further, I brought up the system boot log (of tiger) and found these lines interesting, and hopefully useful to you guys:
localhost kernel[0]: AirPortFirmware: start Sta f/w download
localhost kernel[0]: AirPortDriver: F/W download failed
localhost kernel[0]: AirPortFirmware: start Sta f/w download
localhost DirectoryService[64]: Lunched version 1.8 (v346)
localhost kernel[0]: AirPortDriver: F/W download failed
it then lists the eithernet address and then ramblers on about other nonsense. If anyone needs the other "stuff" i'll try and save the whole log file and attach it here if anyone needs it.
So could anyone please help? It seems as if i've done everything, and still can not get an answer on why it is doing this, and how to fix it!
Please Help!
Thanks you so much, and sorry for the long yet detailed message!!!
-Scott

Hey, just wanted to post an update to let everyone know what I ended up doing.
Bottom line with the airport card I had is that is was "bad" - well only kind of. I got an email from a guy from a local PC repair shop. He told me he had just gotten one of those cards in and had it for sale for only $25. So I was chatting with this guy and he said it would be alright if I brought my iBook right in his shop, swap the cards and try it before I buy it. So I did so. Very nice guy and we swapped out the cards no problem. Right away it recognized his card and worked! I then downloaded the Airport update and ran it. (remember before, when I tried to update my card, after it restarted it was no longer recognized.) So we did the update with HIS card in and after it restarted, it STILL worked! It also added WPA support as well! We then booted into to Tiger (remember the old card wasn't recognized at all in tiger) and it ALSO worked in Tiger! I also had WPA support right away! So I bought the card and was all happy that it was all working again! I then figured out what the problem was with the old one.
My original card was one of the "original" originals. Then, Apple "changed" the original cards and replaced ones with "128bit" support. (this is all before the extreme cards) I then found out that the newer original cards (the one the guy just sold me) are worth MORE because these are the cards that are compatible with the newer update (128bit WEP, and WPA) The cards looked exactly the same, but the newer card has "128 Bit" printed on the bottom of the card.
SO, it ended up, I was "asking too much" out of the card I had - as the card I had did not support what I was trying for it to do. Where as the newer card I bought IS compatible with the update, and worked like a piece of cake. So all in all, the first card I had isn't "dead" it just wasn't working with what I wanted it to. So I'm going to end up selling it. Hopefully craigslist, but I will get more for it on eBay. so that is what I'm going to do. I'll just make sure to tell people this "story" so they don't try and do the same thing I did. But for someone with an even older laptop, an older OS, or an older router, this card will work just fine for them.
So thats basically it! Looks like I got everything working!

SSD's not working/ being detected - Windows install errors on HP Dv6-1149wm laptop

Okay, well I have tried three different brand new ssd's: 1. kingston v300 120gb SSD, 2. samsung 840 120gb ssd, and 3. another kingston v300 120gb SSD. Tried in that order.
The Kingston drives- Were not detected at all by the bios no errors or nothing, nada. When attached to a different computer running windows the drives are detected fine. nothing wrong there.
The Samsung drive- This was the second drive I tried. It was detected by the bios but diagnostics gave me the "303 quick" Error. When installing windows through a USB, it would ask me for drivers before proceeding. When installing from a cd, I could get to the point where I see the drive listed. I would get errors when I would try to partition it or format it. Not even partitioning the drive through command prompt using diskpart worked. It would return an error saying incorrect parameter or something like that (Note I was able to partition the drive here but not format to ntfs). I could manually partition it on another system all the way. Formating/partitioning via a different system allowed me to get all the way into the installation up until the point where it says "installing features" then it gives me an error saying it was unable to set the system local - or something like that. On top of that I also tried installing windows on the other system which worked great but would not transfer over to the laptop. I also tried cloning the previos drive onto the ssd but when booting up the computer gave me a disk read error.
My personal desktop drive(OCZ Vertex 4 128GB)- This one worked fine. Computer diagnostics picked it up fine and didn't report errors. The only thing is I didn't try installing windows on it because I already had an install there.
My thoughts- My best guess is that there is some sort of incompatibility with the drives firmware and the computers BIOS. The Bios (Insyde h20 F.21) is very limiting to begin with, too user friendly and not much to do there, second it hasn't seen an update since 2011. Seems to me like SSD technology might be advancing quicker than HP can keep up with their updates (This of course assuming its the BIOS that is at fault)
I am open to ideas suggestions, basically anything that can help me out at this point. I've spent many hours on this and I have turned out empty.
This question was solved.

Hi,
I suggest to read this thread:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Hardware-Upgrades-Replacements/probook-6560b-does-not-recognize-my-SSD/...
Your thoughts are exactly the same as mine. The motherboard doesn't like the firmware or the controller on the SSD.
This manual says that AMD doesn't support SSD:

My iphone is no longer working I have black screen with a picture of the itunes logo and a USB cable. When I try to connect my iphone to itunes the device is not detected, can anyone help me? I desperatley need my phone back

I have had a 3GS for 2+ years. After upgrading to IOS 4 (now 4.3.5) I began having problems. In the past week, my screen went to the itunes logo and USB cable twice -- unprovoked -- just found it sitting there like that! I connected to itunes and it did restore from a backup but it is a major inconvenience. I am also searching for answers, but better back-up regularly!

My early 2011 MacBook Pro says battery not detected and does not work with a new battery either. Works only with the charger plugged in.

About a year back i had replaced the MLB of my early 2011 macbook pro and it was all working fine. A month back my battery went dead saying "Battery Not Detected". I went to Ample technologies, Bangalore, India and gave it for diagnosis. Ample technologies are the authorized Apple support service in Bangalore, India. After 3 days and no phone calls they email me that "They feel that the MLB MIGHT be the problem and they want to test it by replacing the MLB and i have to pay for their testing". I had already spent 40k indian rupees ($700) less than a year back to replace an MLB and now they want to replace it again at the cost of 43k ($750) indian rupees. I have no idea what to do now. Spending 80k indian rupees ($1400) in less than a year to replace the MLB twice sounds unfair to me. Can someone help me out here ? Is there a valid warranty period applicable , since i have changed the MLB a year back ?

short of doing a SMC reset, you maybe at their mercy.

You can try yourself running the Apple Hardware Test- and see if it generates any error codes. Post the results
