SD2005 v2.1 (slowdown/flashing lights/not being recognized)

Hi,
I have 3 (SD2005) , two of them are having the symptoms above where the speed goes dead slow or the whole thing just halts and the lights are flashing or when it just tells me that the network cable has been unplugged on the pc !!
I've read a few similar issues about the SD2008 and other v2.1products that had the same problem .. is there any bios fix to taht or should I just swap (RMA) for units and hopefully will get newer version that has the problem fixed ?!
Thanks

It is just a Gigabit Switch, and not a Managed Switch so basically you cannot do anything with it...

Why is my Flash player not being recognized by some programs?

Why is my Flashplayer not being recognized by some programs. Some keep informing me to download Flash player which I have done numerous times. My operating system is MS Vista and Widows 7.
Please advise.

What programs, for example?

Flash Player Not Being Recognized on Downloaded Game

In case anyone didn't see the previous post..I am getting a similar error on a game I downloaded from Shockwave.com. I have used it for 2 months now with no problem. Now I get the error message that tells me to upgrade to Flash version 8. However, I am currently running version 10. Apparently, the game does not recognize this. Shockwave's response was to "uninstall and reinstall Flash". I have done this twice now with no results-same error message. I am running Windows 7 with Firefox browser. Can anyone help please?

I am having the same problem, on a Mac running Safari on Leopard since installing version 10.

USB flash drive not being recognized as a startup disk?

Hi everyone, I've been searching for similar questions but haven't found one that exactly matches my experience. So, I'm going to try and explain my issue in hopes that others may be able to help.
I'm trying to create a bootable flash drive from which I can install lion, and eventually Mountain Lion when it is released onto my main hard drive. My main reason for doing this is to have a way that I can perform a clean install of the operating system. Yes, I know I am old fashioned, but sometimes I prefer clean operating system installs rather than upgrading. In any case, I have downloaded the lion setup file from the Mac app store (Install Mac OS X Lion.app) and am following the directions given on this page to do this procedure. These directions are consistent with directions found on various other sources online. Having this file saved to my hard drive, I was able to find and extract the disk image file from the package InstallESD.dmg to another folder. Once extracted, I plugged in my flash drive and attempted to use disk utility to restore the disk image to my flash drive. I selected the dmg file as my source and the flash drive as the destination. I then clicked restore and was warned that all data on the flash drive would be erased while the disk image was restored to my flash drive. I was prepared for this, so I allowed the process to continue, and it appeared to proceed with no problem. When disk utility was finished, I did a quick look at my flash drive using finder and confirmed that it did in fact appear to contain a disk image of the .dmg file. Here's where things get interesting however.
When I go to system preferences and choose startup disk, my flash drive is not listed as an optional disk from which to boot, only my hard drive ("macintosh HD"). When I restart and hold down the option key, my flash drive is not listed as a startup disk either. I know that the non-intel based macs are not capable of booting from USB, but this is certainly not my issue as I have an intel macbook pro, mid 2009 model. My flash drive is about 4 or 5 years old; it is a PNY Technologies Attaché 16 gb flash drive. I have no trouble viewing and transferring files to and from the flash drive, the only issue is that my computer seems to refuse to recognize it as a startup disk. Are there certain flash drives which do not support booting? This would normally seem more like a computer issue rather than a flash drive issue, but most people seem to have no problem doing what I'm trying to do. Unfortunately I do not have another flash drive with which to test this, and I didn't really feel like buying another flash drive just to test this out if in fact this is not a flash drive issue. I am planning to upgrade to the macbook pro retina soon which of course does not have an optical drive, which is one of the reasons I would like to get this working. Can anyone think of something else I can try? Is it more likely an issue with the macbook pro or the flash drive?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

The format says Mac OS Extended. All of the settings were set during the disk image restore process. Even if I format the flash drive as extended journaled or some other format, all of these settings are reverted when I do the restore from the disk image. I will just copy all of the information that disk utility has so that you can see it.

Flash drive not being recognized

My 128 Patriot Flash drive is not seen as potential scratch disk by CS5. I reformatted it as exFAT and then as NTFS but still not seen by CS5.
Thanks, CMA

Check your device manager. I'm sure it's listed as a removable drive and PS only uses fixed drives for swap. If the device offers a special system driver, install it and it may be assigned as a fixed drive, if not, then there's jsut no way to coax PS into using it.

Video Ipod 80G 5th generation not being recognized by computer or itunes.

My ipod is not being recognized by my computer or itunes at all. I bought a new cable and nothing happens as well. however when i connect it in my car it works fine. did any resolve this issue? I am not sure if its the new software that has the issue but i am almost certain it is.

Many people are reporting problems with connecting there fifth-gen iPods after the update to iTunes 9. I had the same problem, and when I downgraded to iTunes 8, everything worked again.
I tried cables, resetting, and all the other steps. My solution turned out to be iTunes 9 itself.
My problem came from using a replacement hard drive-an adapter that allows me to retrofit my iPod with a Compact Flash card instead of a hard drive.
The problem is NOT the adapter. This system functioned perfectly until iTunes 9, and when I switched back to iTunes 8, it worked again.
Summary: I have a modded iPod, and it consistently works with iTunes 8, but not iTunes 9.
Reason: Apple is sooooooooooo afraid a Palm Pre user will be able to use iTunes that they are breaking the sync code on purpose.
Downgrading iTunes:
1. find the download of iTunes 8 for your OS. (not posting links, as they may change)
2. go into your iTunes 9, and export EVERY playlist to a text file. This is the only way to preserve your playlists.
3. Uninstall iTunes 9 from you computer, install iTunes 8.
4. Configure iTunes 8 to use your music folder (especially if you moved your music to a different location other than the default)
5. Add your music to iTunes-this may take awhile.
6. Import you text files and your playlists will return.
7. Backup your iTunes 8 library files.
Happily enjoy your modded iPod. Mac Users: Don't accidentally install iTunes 9 from an Apple Update.

IPod Shuffle not being recognized by my PC

Hi, I just bought 2 Apple iPod Shuffles from eBay. I have a slight problem. When I plug them into my USB port, iTunes does not recognize them. They show up in My Computer though. When I try to re-install/reset the factory settings it says "Plug in a device" or something like that. My guess is that I bought them from a Mac user.
My question is: How might I go about converting it from Mac to Windows?
:: I am not sure this is the problem though, this is just a guess ::
-Thanks

I have a similar problem, my iPod Shuffle is being read in my Windows 2000 but in the iTunes it's not being recognized.
When I try to play the iPod, the green and orange lights blink simultaneously.
When I try and double-click on the icon for it in My Computer, it's saying that it can't be accessed because of an I/O device error.
Finally, I come to the site and get the latest update and when I try to update, it's saying that there's an iPod service error.
Hope that generalizes everything of what I'm saying and similar to Niko's problem as well.

HT1510 My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. I have the original USB cord but when I plug it into my computer there is no recognition. The first time I plugged it in it recognized but never again.

My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. It is flashing orange and when plugged in with the original USB cable nothing happens to show the computer recognizes it.

Flashing orange usually means it is being recognized by the computer. The flashing means do not disconnected, because the shuffle's "disk" is mounted.
In iTunes (with the shuffle connected), when you look in the sidebar (left side of window), under DEVICES, the iPod is not shown there? Does it say DEVICES in the sidebar?

Hard Drive not being recognized on my Graphite Clamshell

I have a challenge for anyone. I have a ibook 366(clamshell) that is not recognizing the hd. It was working wonderfully one night I shut it down and the next day I get the flashing question mark. I've tried all of the normal stuff: zap pram, reset nvram tried to use command and s but it didn't go to the programmers screen and all the such. I can boot from a cd but none of the utilities see the hd. I have taken the hd out and connected it to a usb to ide cable that allows me to use it as an external drive and it is recognized without any problem on all of the other macs I connect it to and even on a pc (I know I said the bad word.)Does anyone have any clue what could be the issue. Every thing else seems to work fine. Just the hd is not being recognized. I even put in a different hd. I even formatted the drive using one of my macs that I only have 9.2.2 on and installed a os on it and it still didn't work. The hard drive worked fine and the os with all of its components seemed to be fine. I know it's an older system but it's something that I can let the kids play on and not be concerned with losing any of my files.
I appreciate any help
iBook 366 Graphite

Duane, Thanks for your reply. Is there any way to test this? I am going to try to see if any of the utility disks can recognize the hd. I've tried DW 4.0, the Utility Disks on OS 9, X. I've even tried FWB and a few other tools.

Acomdata 500gb External FW Drive NOT BEING RECOGNIZED!!!

I have been running an Acomdata 500gb FW External Hard Drive for my data intensive applications such as FCP and it has been working flawlessly for about the last year...
Yesterday I powered up the Mac and turned on the drive along with my external USB drive and the Acomdata drive turns on, lights up, and makes noise like it's working, but it is not being recognized at all by the Mac. I tried unplugging it, switching out the FW cord, changing the FW slot it was being plugged into, and everything else of that nature that I could think of. Of course the USB drive that has non-important work related stuff works just fine :/
So I'm wondering, does anyone think the drive has officially crapped out? It turns on and works so I can't tell. I'm PRAYING this is not the case, but I didn't know if there were any possible FW configuration settings that could have been changed or something like that. Any ideas?

Did you recently update to 10.4.10? Is there another computer that you can plug the external into to see if it's recognized? Have you tried plugging another FW peripheral into your main computer to see if it recognizes it?
Some people have had good results from the following:
1. Downloading and installing the combo updater of the system software update they've just applied via "Software Update...". In your case the update you need is at:
10.4.10 combo updater
2. Another trick is to restart each by zapping the parameter RAM:
Zapping the P-RAM:
After the startup tone, hold down <commandd><option><r> until 3 additional startup tones are heard, then release the 4 keys.
3. A 3rd tip would be to do Open Firmware resets on each:
After the startup tone, hold down <command><option><o><f> until the text screen is visible. When text can be entered, type the following commands, followed by the <return> key (there are no space characters in each command):
reset-nvram
set-defaults
reset-all (the Mac will boot up after this command is entered).
Also, see if anything in this Apple KB article helps:

Please post back with results,

My battery is not being recognized, tried the updates..

So I've tried all of the software and battery updates, still getting the black x in the battery icon. I've also tried the battery from an identical (working) Macbook in my computer, still not being recognized. The battery itself is lighting up to full power, so what I'm wondering is...is it really my battery that needs to be replaced? Or could it be a different issue?
I bought my Macbook in 2008, so people are telling me the battery is old and needs to be replaced, but what worries me is a different battery already failed, so I don't want to waste my money if the battery isn't the problem.

Most common culprits include the cable. Try swapping it out for a different one.. or not having the most recent version of itunes. I once even solved this problem by shutting down the computer for 2 minutes. (the longer the better), with the ipad plugged in. starting it up... then itunes recognizes it, launches, and syncs.
Apple has a troubleshooting assistant on this topic:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
It will advise you to reboot. I recommend shutting down instead.
--Sam
P.S The ipad should charge when asleep and plugged into your Mac. The charging behavior is normal. There isn't enough power out the USB ports to charge the ipad while it is on on some older Macs and nearly all PCs.

ATI RX3850 not being recognized

Hello. I've been having some problems getting my comp to recognize my new ATI rx3850 graphics card. I am using a Dell Dimension C521 with a Dell 0YY821-A00 motherboard. I install the card in a PCI expressx16 slot, but when I open device manager and search the card I cannot find it. I previously used a NVIDIA 7 series card in the slot with no problems. I recently flashed the BIOS and looked at BIOS settings but I cannot figure out why the card is not being recognized. Could the card not be compatible? I would be thankful for any suggestions.

Which one exactly?
Dell PCs are cheap because they use cheap and nasty components. My guess is that the PSU isn't up to the job, you were probably lucky that your 7xxx card worked at all.

Ipod nano not being recognized since update

Ok, so everything was fine until i had to update my ipod nano(right around when the updated itunes came out). Since then, my ipod nano would connect sometimes, for a min. or two, or not at all. Now, it wont even connect, light up, charge, anything! It's not being recognized by My Computer, Windows, nothing.
I have tried reinstalling the software with the instilation disc, but all it did was pop up with an error saying im missing some file, and that only happened once. I know that its not the cable because the charger works and i know its not the usb port because other things still work in it. Also, i have plugged it into the back usb port, to no avail.
PLEASE HELP!

Hey i am having exactly the same problem its really strange!! I have tried everything i can think of to fix it, reinstalling the USB drives and everything but it still wont recognise my ipod! HELP!!
