SATA HD not recognized in system profiler
Hi, I have just fitted a Sonnet SATA controller card along with a Seagate 500GB harddrive.
Disk Utility recognizes the disk and it mounts.
In System Profiler>PCI Cards the SATA card is recognized but not the Drive is not seen in System Profiler>S-ATA Devices.
Why is this?Drives connected to PCI controller cards apparently don't show up in Panther's or Tiger's ASP, so that's not an actual problem. Another G4 owner who recently added a Sonnet SATA card posted the same question here.

Itunes not recognizing ipod classic, windows does, help
I have an ipod classic that has not had new music installed on it for over a year. I have vista 64, vista recongnizes it itunes does not. I checked connection to itunes with my sons itouch and it works fine. I have done everything i can think of through apple support except buy support including uninstalling itunes, quicktime, etc.. and reinstalling, did not work. I installed itunes on a clean version of xp on another computer, with the same results. I have put ipod in disk mode, itunes still does not recognize it. what else is there to do? format ipod? will this help?
Thank You in advance, grandpa will be very please to have new music to listen to.Hmmm. If no iTunes is recognising it, it might be worth trying a disk check on the iPod itself. Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors:
[Check your hard disk for errors|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Check-your-hard-disk-fo r-errors]
Does the disk check find/repair any damage? If so, can you get (at least) enough recognition to do a restore in iTunes? -
Optical drive not recognized in system profile after hardware rebuild
This is an old MacBook Pro. Apple call it vintage.
Logic board died, so rather than consign it being a doorstop, I took out the logic board and "cooked" it to reflow the solder. It actually worked!
Just prior to this and just before the logic board completely bit the dust I'd inserted a DVD into the optical drive, where it sat and didn't read, wasn't recognized etc. I was trying to drop back down in OS as Lion was too resource hungry for the old machine, so it was an OS install disk. Panther I think?
So now I've got the logic board working, but I cannot remove the DVD. I tried all the tricks, including Terminal etc. On checking System Profile I noticed that the optical drive isn't even listed now. So my question is, is it possible I missed a connection etc when rebuilding the MBP after replacing the logic board? If so, thoughts on where I should look? Is there a way to "force" the OS to find the optical drive? Any thoughts on what to do?
I can't pull the optical drive as one of the screws is completely stripped and honestly, not sure if the laptop is even worth the cost of a replacement drive anyway.Ok, that's it. I read a few posts in the "...SuperDrive won't accept my CD.." section. and it seems some people are just swapping optical drives like mad, ready to accept that the kit is crap, and "...oh, well, I sure hope this one works better...".
But one guy had the brains to have a look inside. Turns out dust had accumulated in the drive and on the connectors, and when he cleaned them, and unplugged and replugged them, it worked fine. So that's what I did. Took it out and put it back in. Amazing the stuff I cleared out! I also un- and re-plugged the power cable and the data ribbon at the mutha board and bingo!. We have disk, and I can breathe again.
Recommend to others they pretend they've bought a new drive, do a remove and reinstall and be very fastidious. You may not need a new one after all. I just love it that stuff can still be FIXED!
Thanks to Lou and all of you who share your experiences. It's like my brain is suddenly soooo huge... -
Hard Drive not recognized by system profiler
A few months ago with the help of some of you I inserted a new hard drive and things are / were working just fine. I have just noticed that now in the system profiler it is not being recognized but my old one original one is at the 74 G capacity. I am using the hd due to I'm on here so why not showing up? I had also inserted a PCI card. All was recognized when I did it.

DVD stuck, drive not recognized in system profiler, can't eject, HELP!
I am distraught, my DVD/CD drive is quite sick, if not dead. Alright, I watch DVDs on my computer somewhat regularly, but this one time I was about an hour into a movie when it just stopped playing. I couldn't finish the movie because now my computer doesn't recognize the disc or even the fact that it has a DVD/CD drive at all. The DVD doesn't appear on the desktop and the eject button doesn't do anything, it's been stuck my drive for maybe a month or so and I forgot about it for a while actually.
The scariest thing is that when I check my system profiler I can't find any info about my DVD drive. When I click on disc burning, it says I dont have a disc burning device installed.
I've tried resetting the power manager (PMU) but to no avail. I would really like to solve this without taking my computer somewhere.
Any suggestions?Welcome to Apple Discussions
Simple step first. If the "stuck" is due to a software problem, restart the computer holding down the click pad through the start-up until the disk ejects. This usually ejects anything in the drive.
You'll find other suggestions here (Donald Worrell post).
If none of the above suggestion work, you'll need to get a technician (Apple certified, if still under warranty) to look at the machine. If the DVD ejects, but the profiler still does not recognize the drive, then a trip to the Technician is your only recourse. -

OS X 10.9.1 itunes 11.1 and a an iphone 5s. Nothing recongizes my iphone on computer. I have shut everything down and restarted it (comp and phone) and I can't set up my new device. I am SUPER frusterated and just want to put some music on my phone. I have been at this for 3 hours and all of the advice is the same...upgrade...or shut down and restart. I have done this all and nothing works. Are these just cliches from Apple?
Has anyone else had this problem and if so were you able to fix it??
THANK YOU!!The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies. -

G$ FW800 stock optical drive not seen in System Profile - is it daid?
I added a USB PCI card (2.0) to my FW and shifted some files (Migration Assistant) to my FW by Firewire from an eMac and then I wanted to run Diskwarrior to sort it all out. My CDW/DVDR wouldn't open, either with the eject key or through Toast. Not recognized in Toast. Not recognized in System Profile either. I reset the PMU (cause I can), then tried to boot the DW CD from a Firewire LaCie drive. No good. I finally got the CD to start the FW by using "alt" on startup and waiting for it to find DW but after running all the tests, my drive still seems to be dead. Any more resets or something I can try?
Also, I took the card out and tried again but no good. Are the circuits for the drive and PCI somehow related? Did I cook a controller or something?
Guys, what's the scoop? or is it poop?Ok, that's it. I read a few posts in the "...SuperDrive won't accept my CD.." section. and it seems some people are just swapping optical drives like mad, ready to accept that the kit is crap, and "...oh, well, I sure hope this one works better...".

I replaced the hard drive to a 30gig on my Ipod 4th gen. click wheel but it is still not recognized on my computer or in itunes......I get an error message with a folder and "!"....what can I do to fix??
Have you recharge the battery for at least 2 hours, or just leave it connected for 4 hours?
(When you replaced the Hardisk, you should also replace the battery.)
Some other iPod SSD sites, says that you may have to format the CF in FAT32, as Mac dont read NTFS drive so if Windows is the 1st PC that your CF is connected, it may be formatted to NTFS.
You can try erasing the CF using Disk Utilty, so that Mac can recognise it. (but not Windows)

iPad is not recognized in iTunes. Just installed Mac OS X 10.6 and have a brand new iPad2. Tried all suggestions in the iPad manual without success.
Quit iTunes, restart your Mac and then restart the iPad and see if the iPad is recognized after that. If not, you can look through these articles.
