SD/mini/MMC/RC/Plus/Mobile port not reading Sony 2 or 8 GB cards

I am running a HP Pavilion HPE Series Product # A5UO8AV#ABA; Model h8-1230z; 64 bit computer with 4 ports on the front of the machine, one of which is labeled SD/mini/MMC/RC/Plus/Mobile (others xD/Smart Media; Compact FlashI/II/MD; MS/PRO/Duo/PRO Duo).
I have tried to insert a Sony SD 2 GB and a Sony SD HC SF-8NX,  NOTHING!
My Computer shows disks D through J -- BUT I can not find anything that addresses these ports!
How do I get the subject port to work??
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
Anyway, thank you,
Chris

  • Right USB Port not reading External HD

    I'm using Mid 2014, Retina, 13-inch, Macbook Pro. I noticed that my right USB Port is not reading my 1 TB WD External HD but able to use mouse. How to fix it?

    According to the fount of knowledge that is Wikipedia…
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB
    As with previous USB versions, USB 3.0 ports come in low-power and high-power variants, providing 150 mA and 900 mA respectively, while simultaneously transmitting data at SuperSpeed rates.[25] Additionally, there is a Battery Charging Specification (Version 1.2 – December 2010), which increases the power handling capability to 1.5 A but does not allow concurrent data transmission.
    It doesn't make sense to me that a 'low power' USB port would output 500ma unless it was working in USB2 mode.
    A unit load is defined as 100 mA in USB 1.x and 2.0, and 150 mA in USB 3.0. A device may draw a maximum of five unit loads (500 mA) from a port in USB 1.x and 2.0, or six unit loads (900 mA) in USB 3.0.
    You may want to get the genius to confirm the spec for both ports if you go along to a store, I guess they may have limitations.
    I would also boot into recovery mode just to see if the disk pops up in Disk Utility via both ports - that could indicate the port is being rendered useless by the OS.
    Apologies, you appear to have tried that already.

  • Serial port not reading after few seconds PLZ HELP...

    Hi,
    I have developed a GUI using Swing in NetBeans IDE 4.0 on Windows 2000 professional for one of our products.
    It communicates with the associated Hardware through serial port.
    The GUI sends commands to the H/W to perform some functionality. After receiving response from the H/W, GUI displays the necessary messages.
    Since the H/W does require some time to perform the indicated operation, it sends the response after 10-11 seconds but my GUI is not reading the response.
    Both the command and response are single byte (8 bits) wide.
    The GUI can read the response if sent within 3-4 sec.s but not after that.
    I have disabled the Receive TimeOut on the serial Port.
    Following is the code I use to Open and use the SerialPort.
    public void OpenPort(){
             portList = javax.comm.CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers();
            while (portList.hasMoreElements()) {
                portId = (javax.comm.CommPortIdentifier) portList.nextElement();
                if (portId.getPortType() == javax.comm.CommPortIdentifier.PORT_SERIAL) {
                    if (portId.getName().equals(Welcome.CommPort)) {
                        try {
                            serialPort =  (javax.comm.SerialPort)portId.open("FCAT-01 ATE", 20000);
                        } catch (javax.comm.PortInUseException e) {}

    }Probably the command after clicking OKButton is not reaching the H/W. because the ATE will surely respond if it receives the command and that is tested several times.
    Thanks.

  • Lightroom will not read sony ARW files

    I understood the latest version of Lightroom supported the recent Sony A7 series, whose RAW files are Sony's own ARW files. I have the latest Lightroom but it will not read these files.

    Here is a list of the Sony A7 series cameras that Lightroom supports, and the version of Lightroom required. The Lightroom versions are in the highlighted area.
    If you are certain you have the appropriate version of Lightroom installed, then provide more information. Can your operating system browser see the raw files? Have they been downloaded to your hard drive? What operating system are you using? What is the exact version of Lightroom?

  • USB Port not reading External Hard Drive

    I have a WD External Hard Drive, it has worked well in the past, but all of a sudden it has stopped working when plugged into my USB port. I can't see it in my finder window at all so I can't access any of the files. BUT, it does show up when I open Disk Utility. Why has my Macbook stopped picking up the Hard Drive? Why does Disk Utility recognize it and not allow me to access the information? Please help.

    I can click on it and choose to repair or verify it. But neither work to gain access to the information. The Hard Drive shows up in a light grey text somehow signifying that Disk Utility isn't able to tell you what is on the Drive, so it can't tell me how much is stored or how much space is still available for storage. With other Hard Drives, they show up in black text and are able to tell me this information. Is there something else I should try besides verify and repair?

  • My ipad3 w/ camera connection kit will not read my SDHC Class 10 memory card.  Should I try directly from the camera or does ipad not support class 10?

    Connection kit will read class 6 cards but not class 10???

    I use an 8GB SDHC Class 10 card & it works with my iPad 2. Make sure the 30-pin adapter is fully seated into the side of the iPad.
    Here's another way. Import the pics to your computer. Then you can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • MBP not reading my galaxy s2 and sd cards

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a Samsung Galaxy SII unfortunately and since I have updated to 10.8 ML it keeps showing on my computer that the disk is unreadable, it also does this with the SD card so I can't put anything on it and tonight it also won't read a DVD, also saying it can't read the disk.
    I know it's ML as my iMac is still on Lion and reads the phone, SD card and DVD. Has anyone had a similar problem???
    Thanks in advance.

    The gold standard for determining whether or not a problem is being caused by software is to perform a system recovery, which reverts to the original factory software installation.
    The knowledge base article at http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/System-Recovery-and-Recovery/How-To-Understanding-System-Recovery-Options-Creating-or/ta-p/268269 has all the details about how to do that.

  • Appletv mini usb port not working

    Plugged in mini usb into Macbook and its not reading the appletv. Any thoughts?

    only reason one connects it by usb is if the appletv have 100% crashed and need to have it's firmware restored
    not sure what you mean by "does not read on my bacbook" but if you mean it does not access the macbooks shared itune lib then thats a feature that needs to be turned on in itunes on the computer
    not be block by the firewall in the computer
    and not be blocked by the wifi router
    most wifi router blocking can be ruled out if you try to connect it by ethernet cable rather then wifi
    then all you have which could be blocking you would be your computers firewall which you can turn off to test
    or if you did not set your itunes lib to be shared which you can then do in your itunes on your computer

  • Built-in ethernet port not working in unibody Mac Mini

    Hi,
    So ever since I acquired this new mac mini I haven't been able to get it to recognize any devices connected via ethernet. I obviously checked the cables and all is good there. I tried connecting it to another mac, and while the other machine was detecting a device (the mac mini) at the other end of the cable, the mac mini kept saying that the cable is unplugged or the device off.
    After several days of having the issue I decided to remove the ethernet service from the network preference pane to set it up again but to my surprise, the built-in ethernet option was not available (I only got airport, firewire, bluetooth DUN, VPN, PPPoE and 6 to 4). At this point I tried removing the networkinterfaces.plist file form the system configuration folder in the system preferences folder to no avail. I then tried to zap the PRAM, NVRAM, reset the SMU, SMC and all that kind of things to get the port recognized by the system but no luck.
    When I look at the system profile I get these weird results in Ethernet Cards:
    pci14e4,4353:
    Type: Other Network Controller
    Bus: PCI
    Vendor ID: 0x14e4
    Device ID: 0x4353
    Subsystem Vendor ID: 0x106b
    Subsystem ID: 0x0093
    Revision ID: 0x0001
    Link Width: x1
    BSD name: en0
    Kext name: AppleAirPortBrcm43224.kext
    Location: /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAirPortBrcm 43224.kext
    Version: 425.16.2
    Comparing it to other macs I have It should read "ethernet" rather than that strange pci name on top and the kext name shouldn't read airport but something like AppleIntel and in location it shouldn't direct to the IO80211Family.kext package but rather to the IONetworkingFamily.kext.
    So I popped in the system install DVD and fired up System profiler and at that point I didn't even get an "ethernet cards" option in the left side pane. So this is leading me to believe that the hardware is not being recognized at all, so maybe it's damaged. I did replace the HDD with a bigger one and change the RAM modules to bigger ones but I don't think I could have damaged the hardware in these processes, also I don't see how this would affect the ethernet port as it's integrated to Motherboard and didn't messed with it at all (I was very careful, to say the least!).
    The last thing to do is reinstalling the system but I don't think it'll help (after seeing that the ethernet port is not even being detected by the install OS) but I need to offload all the data from my internal disk and at the moment I don't have an spare drive to do it.
    So, what's the recommendation? A field trip to an Apple Store? Closest one is like 3,000 km from where I am right now, so...
    Well, thanks for any pointers, suggestions and help in general.

    I do not have any answers for you. Yes it appears to be reading what should be an ethernet card as an AirPort card. Have you played around with trying to install another version of Mac OS X other than the version that shipped with the Mac mini? Apple has long told us that we should not install a version of Mac OS X that was older than the shipping version. With the Mid 2010 Mac mini, the Restore DVD has the only version of Snow Leopard that will work with this Mac mini's specific hardware. At least until Apple releases 10.6.5. If you have installed other versions of Mac OS X, then erasing the HDD and installing the OS from the Restore DVD(s) that shipped with the mini may get you back to the point you need to be.
    Unfortunately I think that you voided your Apple Warranty when you installed the different HDD. That was always a question in the past when folks wanted to open the former version of Mac minis and upgrade the RAM. But with the 2009 models folks started reporting here in the Apple Discussions that Apple was informing them that they had voided their warranty by opening their Mac mini. This new model made the RAM user upgradable, but the User Manual specifically states on page 43, 54 and 61 that there are no user serviceable parts in the Mid 2010 Mac mini except the memory.

  • Apple Mini Display Port NOT working at resolutions over 1600X1200!

    Problem:
    Apple Mini Display Port does NOT work at resolutions over 1600X1200 on NON Apple Cinema Displays.
    That means if you own any other brand of monitor such as NEC, Lacie, etc. you will NOT get native resolution on your 24 inch monitor as it is stuck at a maximum resolution of 1600X1200.
    This story was mentioned on "Macbreak Weekly" show 4-14-2009. I have since checked with a few people and it would indeed seem to be true at this point.
    I REALLY hope a solution from Apple comes soon and this is not some new policy of theirs. If so, it may be the last Mac Pro I will or can ever own. The reason is I do a lot of 3D work with C4D, Vue, Modo and Photoshop CS4 so I MUST have a monitor like the high-end ones from Lacie that have 100% color gamut and Adobe RGB. I can NOT be tied down to an Apple Cinema display due to that work. At this time, it seems this means I would only get 1600X1200 resolution on that 24 inch monitor.
    Has anyone else confirmed this too and if so what the heck is Apple thinking or better still going to do about it? I LOVE my Mac Pro but if they start forcing displays on us then I won't be buying another Mac, it's just that simple.

    Thanks, but I think two things may be different in that setup.
    1. If I understood correctly, it's a first gen without a "Mini Display Port" and
    2. It was a laptop not a Mac Pro with a video card.
    I think it has specifically to do with either one or both of the above combos. In particular I think it's the video card they are putting in them.
    I am not sure if a new 2009 Apple laptop with a Mini Display Port connected to a NON Apple display would have an issue or work like yours does now. It would be interesting to get to the bottom of this for sure because it REALLY hurts people like myself that are into 3D design.
    I will try to get back on this once I continue to find out more details.

  • GS70 miniDP/mini Display Port not working

    Hi forum,
    I recently got a GS70 with 860m graphics that runs win8.1. I can use the HDMI interface with no problems with various monitors. The displays are detected both by the intel software as well as the "change screen resolution" config of windows.
    When I plug a monitor into the miniDP ports however the displays are not detected by the system. I tried this with a 27" Samsung as well as a 30" Dell U3011. I used a miniDP2HDMI cable, a miniDP2DP cable and an active miniDP2DVI adapter, none of them works. I am using the latest Nvidia drivers, they have been updated online through the nvidia experience stuff.
    I tried to troubleshoot this by using an Ubuntu live CD with the same results. HDMI works out of the box as soon as I plug a cable in. Nothing happens when I use the miniDP cable though.
    I also noticed that one cable (miniDP2HDMI) I can put fully into the miniDP port while the other one(miniDp2DP) sticks out 3-4mm and does not seem to go into further even with force. They look alike and the packaging clearly says "miniDP..." though.
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks.

    have you tried to press fn + F2 button? some times some displays wont give signal untill you press that button and then laptop one will either go black or go off then on again and then external monitor will wake up and give picture so try it if you havent and then return back to us if it works or not.

  • Measurement Computing USB-SSR24 error 42 Digital Port not configured correctly for requested operation

    Using LV 2012 and ULx 2.02 LV driver:
    LV is throwing an error 42 (Digital Port not configured correctly for requested operation) from the ULx write VI but only on PortCH.  All my configurations are correct on the hardware and Instacal tests the ports OK.  I've reinstalled everything and still see the same issue.
    Since PortA is configured identical to PortCH, and PortA is functioning fine, I'm stumped.  This is occuring on two different SSR24 DAQs so I don't think it's the hardware, plus I've already mentioned that the Instacal isn't having a problem with it.
    I've attached my VI I'm using for debug.

    I worked with Measurement Computing and they agreed that there is a bug with certain DI/DO configurations.  There are a possible 16 different DI/DO configurations with the hardware and apparently mine (PortA - DO, PortB- DI, PortCL-DI, and PortCH-DO will throw this error for PortCH.  I'm currently using .net calls to work around the issue until the ULx driver is updated.  I'll post that when I see it.  Attached are the .net VI's that I'm using for simple static IO.
