[SOLVED] Can't Load UEFI Shell From USB

I'm trying to install Arch on an Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A. It already has Windows 7 x64 on it and a UEFI system partition doing the bootloading.
I followed the steps for creating a UEFI bootable USB from the ISO. When I get to the UEFI device selection, the thumbdrive correctly shows up as "UEFI: Generic USB" (or something) but selecting it just fails silently and it goes on to load the next thing in the boot order. What could be going wrong here?

Did create the 2012-09 UEFI USB succesfully and it did boot.
wanted too reinstall arch because of SSD.
So maybe you want checkout the layout of your USB and size of the files!
You can check against mine..

  • I can't open pages files from USB and iCloud due to : "The necessary file index.xml is missing".

    I can't open pages files from USB and iCloud due to : "The necessary file index.xml is missing". Original file is written on iMac (2014) and saved to an USB stick and then transferred till macBook Pro (2009, Yosemite) for editing. Then I shared the files by iCloud but I am not able to open them on iMac again. Niether can I use the USB stick to transfer the edited files back. I'm running Pages '09 4,1 (923) on the macBook and Pges 5.5.2 (2120) on the iMac.
    Håkan

    Pages 5.5.2 is extremely incompatible with even other Macs let alone the vast majority of PC and MsWord users out there, so not a good idea to leap into the fire with both eyes shut.
    After having done that to the first Pages 5 files, Apple has repeatedly done it to even the most minor point updates. Apple can't even anticipate its own erratic changes let alone what everyone else needs doing.

    I am having similar issues with a *.exe from LV6.1.  I have the runtime engine for 6.1 and recently upgraded to 8.2 from 7.1.  I've never had 6.1 on my machine.  I am able to install this executible and runtime engine on a machine with 7.1 and can run the *.exe fine. 
    I get a load error and am not sure why.  I have had similar issues with old VI's that I have written in 7.1 executing on this machine w/ 8.2

  • I can't load some content from my external hard drive to itunes,

    I can't load some content from 1 of my external hard drive to itunes, it can see it and try to load the folder / files but it doesn't appear, these files worked recently as some of them are currently on my ipod touch - I had to factory restore my laptop this week (virus) so have been trying to put everything back on to sync ipod - any ideas???

    To delete files from your external HDD, attach it to your MBP and drag the unwanted files to trash and then empty trash.
    Then you select the files that you want to transfer by 'drag and drop' to the external HDD and trash the files on your MBP.

  • Can't load Network Settings from System Preferences

    For some reason I can't load Network Settings from System Preferences anymore - it just stalls with the bar showing "Loading Network" and doing nothing. This is happening in conjunction with a new inability to connect to a network printer - it won't show up on the list of printers, even when I manually enter the IP address. Something is obviously mucked up - can anyone tell me what it might be & how I can fix it? Thanks!

    I was able to fix this myself by using one of the techniques suggested here for a different problem. Basically I went into Library/Preferences/System Configuration and deleted networkinterfaces.plist, preferences.plist & com.apple.nat.plist. All were rebuilt when I restarted and went to System Preferences/Network and I was able to load the Network Settings. This didn't fix the problem with my printer, but at least it got the settings up.

    My problem is a sudden loss of ability to get to PSE12 Organizer when I tried to load a saved scan. Had been using the Organizer and the Editor with no problems for several hours just before that.  
    Can not load the Organizer from the icon at the bottom of  Editor screen, from the icon on the MacBook Air dock (OS 10.10.2),  nor from the file in applications located with Finder.

  • Can't boot install disk from usb drive

    I bought a macbook pro back in late 2007 and up until now im getting ready to sell it. So now while restoring to factory settings, i wiped off the hard drive and i need to reinstall my install discs which i still have. However, the cd drive doenst work on the laptop. It hasnt worked since i can remember. I already imaged the instal disk into a usb flash drive and tried booting from there. When i turn it on and hold "option," it reads the flash drive as a backup, but it wont boot from it. I click the flash drive, and it loads, but then the apple logo gets replaced by a "no symbol."
    I have a new macbook pro, but not a firewire cable or an external cd/dvd drive. Anyone know how i can get the old laptop to boot from the usb?
    BTW, the install cd's are for tiger, but i installed snow leopard when it came out. Im not sure if i still have the cd for snow leopard, but i dont think that would help since the cd drive doenst work. Do i need to buy an external cd drive to reinstall my operating system?

    Well that's your problem you used Tiger and the firmware was changed to prevent booting from the older operating system once you upgraded to Snow Leopard.
    You will need a copy of the Snow Leopard disks, the white one's online at Apple will work
    Then you need to follow this to make a 10.6 install USB
    http://www.maciverse.com/install-os-x-snow-leopard-from-usb-flash-drive.html
    Here are the instructions to install Snow Leopard, I advise zero erasing the entire drive first, this will clear any bad sectors and make the install work perfectly when you sell it and not get call back (although the cd drive is dead of course)
    You might be able to extract the free iLife off the Tiger disks, then Software Update fully to bring it up to date using Pacifist from CharlesSoft.

    BTW, you can't boot/install off a external optical, only internal.

  • Can I load xml file from SWC without using @embed

    I'm developing a mobile application in which I need to load xml files from File.applicationDirectory. This works great if the xml files are part of the main application swf. But I would like to move these xml files into a SWC so they could be shared across multiple applications.
    Using FlashBuilder 4.5, when a SWC is built, I can specify files to embed in the library that are not assets (Assets Tab of Flex Library Build Path). For various design reasons, I do NOT want to embed the xml files via @embed.
    When the swc is built and I open it up using a zip utility, I see the xml files in there just fine. So they are being bundled with the SWC. But how can I load these files in my main application that does not involve using @embed? When the main application is built, the swc setting for link type is "merged into code".
    I wouldn't expect the application to automatically pull out the xml files from the swc and place them in the File.applicationDirectory on the mobile device. I've tried loading from there just in case but file.exists is false (as expected).
    I've searched the web (and continue to do so) and all the answers seem to be to use @embed. Is there another way?
    Randy

    It's actually a lot easier than you think.
    Just reference the file like any'ol URL using a path relative to the SWC's src directory.
    So if you include the file "assets/xml/some.xml", just use that same string like you would any remote resource.
    For example:
    var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader( new URLRequest("assets/xml/some.xml"));
    I believe it would also work like this "/assets/xml/some.xml", but I prefer relative paths so the link doesnt break if moved out of the SWC...

  • Can't load thumbnail photo from file 'BBThumbs.dat'

    Hi everybody,
    I'm developing an application on BB to take and view photo. My problem is can't load the thumbnail photos from file 'BBThumbs.dat'. I'm using code as below:
    public byte[] getThumb(String fileName) {
    String DB = fileName.substring(0, fileName.lastIndexOf('/'))
    + "/BBThumbs.dat";
    fileName = fileName.substring(fileName.lastIndexOf('/') + 1, fileName
    .length());
    if (thumbsMap == null) {
    thumbsMap = new Hashtable();
    byte b[] = null;
    FileConnection fc = null;
    InputStream in = null;
    try {
    fc = (FileConnection) Connector.open(DB, Connector.READ);
    if (!fc.exists()) {
    return null;
    byte[] temp=new byte[(int)fc.fileSize()];
    in = fc.openInputStream();
    DataInputStream is=new DataInputStream(in);
    // b = getThumbNail(first, thumbsMap, fileName, in);
    is.readFully(temp);
    b=readThumbs(temp, fileName);
    } catch (Exception e) {
    } finally {
    if (fc != null) {
    try {
    fc.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    if (in != null) {
    try {
    in.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    return b;
    please give my any idea or suggestions. Thanks 

    Try:
    !Section=Dimensions
    'Name;DimensionClass;DimensionAlias;CustomDimensionID
    SKU;Generic;;
    !Members=SKU
    'Name;DataType
    Brand1;Unspecified
    Brand2;Unspecified
    !Hierarchies=SKU
    'Parent;Child;DataStorage
    #root;Brand1;StoreData
    #root;Brand2;StoreData
    Tho I would add MemberValidForPlan#;Plan#Aggregation, where # is a number of your application which this member is valid for or even has a specific aggregation, as well
    example:
    !Hierarchies=SKU
    'Parent;Child;DataStorage;MemberValidForPlan1;MemberValidForPlan2;MemberValidForPlan3;Plan1Aggregation;Plan2Aggregation;Plan3Aggregation;UDA
    #root;Brand1;StoreData;Y;Y;Y;+;+;+;
    #root;Brand2;StoreData;Y;Y;Y;+;+;+;
    Even more as an idea use pipes, maybe.
    But you will need to say something about Aliases as well if this is a planning application.

    Can somebody tell me, what is going on

    Gseel is right: you try to instantiate an EJB with the BDK.
    Enterprise Java Beans are totally different from graphical/GUI beans. EJBs are thought for dealing with business logic like accessing a database, ldap directory and so on. They run on a application server (simply speaking - a java enabled webserver) and do some processing to handle user requests. Enterprise Java Beans usually don't interact directly with the user, they only do the work in the background and forward their results, which are then rendered for the user. Typically they are employed for handling web requests (a user with a browser), but they can also be used for awt/swing applications. Though - let me repeat - they don't appear visually on the screen.
    The only similarities between those two bean types are the following: they have getter/setter methods for their properties, they implement Serializeable (or a sub-interface like Externalizable, Remote) and they have a default no-argument constructor.
    If you want to run your been you need an application server (your bean is pre-packaged for the Bea Weblogic app-server). If you want to do something graphical, you'll need to search for GUI beans.
