[SOLVED] Cannot mount kindle
I have looked up at different posts on this topic but am still at a loss. I cannot mount a kindle

I have a Gen 2 connected right now, it most definitely uses UMS. I have a Gen 4 at home that also uses UMS. I've got to assume your Gen 3 would as well.
Does it go to the "USB Drive Mode" screen when you plug it in?
Edit: Do remember having an issue one time where it would not go into USB mode. Rebooting the Kindle fixed it. On my Gen 2, you would go to the Home screen, then hit menu and settings, hit menu again and there's an option for "Restart".

[SOLVED] Cannot "mount swap"
Hi
I cannot mount my swap partition! It stopped working some time ago (I don't know when exactly, I just saw this now).
When I try to mount it manually, I receive this error message: "Unknown filesystem type 'swap'".
Here is my fstab (I'm synchronized with the stable repo):
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

Thanks in advance.
Last edited by Kknd (2008-08-04 15:19:00)Wow even I accidentally disabled swap somehow and I tried everything, but it would not work ( http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=52252 ) . But, changing the line in fstab worked like a charm. Thanks!
(Maybe this is some sort of a bug? ) -
[SOLVED] Error mounting Kindle
Dear all,
whenever I connect my Kindle to the laptop, caja (Mate's fork of Nautilus) shows this error message:
Unable to mount Kindle
Error mounting /dev/sdc1 at /run/media/luca/Kindle: Command-line `mount -t "vfat" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush" "/dev/sdc1" "/run/media/luca/Kindle"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: unknown filesystem type 'vfat'
Any idea how can I fix this issue?
Last edited by lucacerone (2014-05-21 23:22:40)I should also mention that before rebooting I also installed the packages dosfstools ntfs-3g ntfsprogs (dosfstools contains tools to manage vfat partitions),
I am not sure whether this contributed to fix the issues or not. -
[SOLVED] Cannot mount usb (as normal user)
Hello
I'm facing this problem for the first time, but can't tell if it came after an update or an unexpected reboot (light went out).
I'm using latest kde (4.9.2?), and the latest kernel,
Linux gantz 3.6.6-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Nov 5 11:57:22 CET 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
When I plug any usb device, kde ask me what to do. When trying to mount it, either from the kde "mount" plasmoid or from dolphin, I get a "Not authorized" error. Mounting via cli with sudo works fine.
After doing some research, I found that I need to be in the storage group in order to be able to mount, so I checked, and I was already on the storage group. Next.
More research sent me to lots of pages talking abour .xinitrc, wich doesn't exists (on my home, at least). Also tons of pages where talking about somethin like "exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch session-manager" (I login via kdm), but the ck-launch-session is not found on my computer either.
So i'm stucked right now, and don't know how to proceed, any clues? Thanks

pd @Raynman: removing myself from the storage group did not change anything.
that's not a fix, it's a crappy workaround. You are not supposed to touch these files, they will be overwritten on an upgrade. My guess is that you are simply not using systemd and therefore you are not in an active logind session. You have to boot with systemd, as mentioned in the news. Everything should then just work out of the box. -
[SOLVED] cannot mount vfat usb
When I plug in my usb device an error is shown:
Error mounting /dev/sdc1 at /run/media/toni/BE40-9797: Command-line `mount -t "vfat" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=100,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush" "/dev/sdc1" "/run/media/toni/BE40-9797"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: unknown filesystem type 'vfat'
How can I solve this?
Last edited by toni (2013-12-11 20:59:11)So, why did the reboot work ? (asked rhetorically)
Unlike some other famous operating systems,it is not likely that you machine had reached some unstable state requiring a restart to put it into a known state.
In your case, you probably updated the kernel. When this happens, the kernel modules on disk for the running kernel are replaced by those for the new kernel. After you did the upgrade, you plugged in your USB device. The kernel looked for its modules, but they were gone -- replaced by those for the new kernel. After rebooting, you are now running the kernel that matches the installed modules. -
[SOLVED]Cannot mount partitions with PCMANFM --no longer an issue
Hi,
I have searched and searched and pulling my hair out on this issue. I am using PCMANFM .9.10 on an LXDE install using the Arch x86 iso. My HD contains several linux partitions and a FAT32 partition.
I am not able to mount these partitions in PCMANFM. I am able to mount my usb flash drive
When trying to mount a partition in PCMANFM I get a "not authorized to perform operation" error message.
Today, June 11 I partially rewrote this due to the lack of response I am getting on this problem.
1. did a reinstall of Arch & LXDE today. I've done two or three installs. dbus is in daemons in /etc/rc.conf
2. initially the partition icons did not show up
3. then, I installed gvfs and added 55-my-conf.pkla in /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/
4. With that the partition icons show up in PCMANFM
5. But I still get the "not authorized to perform operation" message
The 55-my-conf.pkla has this content:

I changed <action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount-system-internal">
mount a system-internal disk at <allow_active> from "auth_admin_keep" to "yes".
Still didn't work!
Either this is a bug or I have a permission problem somewhere.
Can you please advise how to do this or point me to a recent tutorial to be able to auto mount other partitions not using /etc/fstab? Some of the older posts refer to hal or other package that have been deprecated.
Thanks
Edit: latest. It seems that I must mount the desired partition from the terminal. example: $sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt
then can edit it from PCMANFM by going to / and then /mnt. Apparently I do not have to manually unmount.

[SOLVED] Cannot mount ntfs drive
Every time I try to mount my Windows 7 hdd, I receive an error:
fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy
The commands I used to try to mount all resulted in the same error:
sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ntfs
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ntfs
sudo mount /dev/disk/by-uuid/C0940E83940E7BE2 /mnt/ntfs
Switching to root also did not remedy the error. Putting the entry in fstab does not mount it at boot, giving the same error.
fdisk -l reveals the following:
Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
EDIT: Solution:
As it turns out, a couple years ago, I had a mirrored RAID. Even when got rid of the RAID, got a new drive, reformatted and installed Arch, my secondary, NTFS drive would not mount.
Here is exactly what fixed it:
Issuing the command `cat /proc/mdstat` shows all RAID arrays. Mine showed the following:
Personalities :
md127 : inactive sdb[1](S)
488386496 blocks
`sudo mdadm --stop /dev/md127` stopped the array.
`sudo mdadm --remove /dev/md127` removed the array.
new output of `cat /proc/mdstat`
Personalities :
unused devices: <none>
`sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/1` worked.

Can ssh into client iMac but cannot mount home directory ...
I've got a server running 10.4.11 and a bunch of client iMacs (10.5.n). If I ssh into a client iMac it lets me log in but cannot mount my home directory (which lives on the server). Obviously ssh is getting my credentials from the server but isn't getting (or cannot get) the information to mount my disk. If I log in through the gui on the client it all works fine. I suspect this is less of an error and more of a design. Is there a way to get the clients to mount my home when logging in with ssh? If not then Apple presumably has a reason for disallowing this behaviour. Is there a way around this? Perhaps with mount_afp?
We want to be able to log into many client iMacs at once to run computations on them. Eventually we want to do this on a suite of XServes and XGrid. This is all very easy with linux and nfs and I was expecting the same sort of ability through OS X. I know that I can export everything from the server with nfs (though that may not solve my problem) but I only have the one system and multiple users and I can't really experiment while they are connected.
Suggestions? Comments? If there are obvious examples of this elsewhere please point me toward them.Well it's never worked that way for me. Do you actually use this method to log in?
I've gone through all of the server logs, watching what gets added as I log on to a client. I don't see anything there that suggests it is even attempting to mount the home directory. I also watched on the client and didn't see any errors. When I ssh into a client I see the following message on the terminal, "Could not chdir to home directory /Network/Servers/server.some.place/Volumes/R1/UsersR1/username: Unknown error: 118" This suggests that the client knows where my home should be but doesn't know how to mount it.
I have enabled the basic setup on my server. User accounts have Home URLs like "afp://server.some.place/UsersR1/username" and Full Paths like "/Network/Servers/server.some.place/Volumes/R1/UsersR1" (R1 is a RAID disk). UsersR1 has been made into a Share Point and Server Admin tells me that the disk "will be automatically mounted using the AFP protocol as /Network/Servers/R1 on client machines". This part doesn't seem to be true as when I log into a client through the GUI the actual path that is mounted as my home is /Network/Servers/server.some.place/R1" (pwd in my home directory returns /Network/Servers/server.some.place/Volumes/R1/UsersR1/username which is a actually rather inconvenient).
Under the Advanced tab in the Workgroup Manager, Accounts pane, I've got "Allow simultaneous login on managed computers". This seems to work but also seems only to apply to the GUI, that is I can log onto several clients at once.
How do I ask a client machine what home directory information it is getting from the server for any particular user? Is there some setup on the client machines that will enable automatic mounting of homes through ssh? On the clients, the Directory Utility, which I have used to connect the client to a Directory Server, has a Mounts pane which allows me to "Edit automatic NFS mounts for this computer". I am not exporting any NFS from the server, but perhaps this is the way to make it work?
Perhaps what I want to requires Kerberos? I don't have that enabled.
When I have done this on a cluster of linux machines I exported the home directory from the server with NFS (exportfs) and then, using NIS and automount on the clients it "just worked". It was very simple. If it is supposed to work with Macs and OS X, it may be simple but it's not obvious. -
Hi everyone:
So earlier today I was taking a screen shot with (command+shift+4) and right when I took it, the spinning wheelcame up on the screen. It was there for a long time, so I decided to turn off my macbook by holding down thepower button. When I turned it on, it stayed at the grey apple logo with the loading circle underneath.
I turned it off again, and this time I started it into the Recovery HD. I ran a disk verify and it said my disk was corrupt and needed to be repaired. I tried to repair it and it said it could not be repaired. Next, I tried to erase the hard drive and it still didn't work because it cannot mount the hard drive.
The thing that baffles me is that I have 2 partitions on my hard drive, one for mac, the other for windows bootcamp and the windows hard drive is able to be mounted. I tried to completely delete the entire hard drive, but it won't let me. What are the next steps I should take into solving this problem? Any/All help is appreciated. ThanksSounds like the drive may be faulty or have suffered a problem. Bummer mate, but it happens.
Disk Utility won't let you do a complete erase? Probably not what you want to do anyway as you'd lose your bootcamp partition.
I would recommend you replace the drive and re-install OS X. Once they get faulty like this you're into a greatly increased risk window. You'll need to have a bootable DVD / USB stick of Lion or a RecoveryHD USB created by the Lion Recovery Assistant.
If the MBP is under warranty or you have Applecare you could get the drive replaced under warranty.
To retrieve your files and Apps etc you can restore from a backup, or if you don't have one then you could get a sata enclosure for the old drive and attach it as an external drive then attempt to copy the content from it once you've re-installed. Time Machine backups will make this much easier for you though.
For bootcamp, you're going to need a 3rd party program such as Winclone (www.twocanoes.com) to allow you to take an image of the bootcamp partition and restore it to the new bootcamp partition on the new drive.
I can heartily recommend the Seagate Momentus XT 750GB hybrid drive (ST750LX003) if you're going for a replacement. You won't believe the difference in performance it provides.
Good luck! -
Gnome doesn't want to mount my USB pen drive. I get the following message:
Cannot mount volume.
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied.
A security policy in place prevents this sender from sending this message to the recipient...
I have hal,dbus & fam in my DAEMONS and I have added myself to the optical and storage groups. I have also logged off and on and tried restarting, but I still get this error.I am having this same issue. However, I have added myself to both groups and logged out and back in again. I cannot get this to work on either my laptop or my desktop. Any other suggestions?
**Solved on my laptop: You have to restart dbus.
Log out of your DE, and go to a console
/etc/rc.d/dbus restart
/etc/rc.d/hal restart
Should work now

I have Sol10 up and running. I noticed that it was not very easy to mount a linux disk with nfs. I found out that I had to add -o vers=3. Now I would like to mount a disk from a Sol8 system
So far I only managed to get:mount sol8sys:/storage /mnt/sol8sys
nfs mount: sol8sys:/storage: Permission deniedThis gives me the impression something is not configured well on the Sol8 system.
Well here is some info about that $ exportfs
- /storage rw=serv1:serv2:sol10sys,ro=serv3 "Storage Array"
sol10sys represents the system I'm trying to mount on.......
Any suggestions why I cannot mount this disk ? or give me some hints on how to proceed solving this problem!
Thanks a lot
LuCaThe reverse resolution has to match exactly. Most machines are in DNS, so the reverse resolution will be a name, not an IP address. Therefore they won't match.
Also, how were you specifing the IP address? You can't just throw an IP address in an access list. From the share_nfs man page we can see that an access list contains:
hostname, netgroup, domain name suffix, or network. 'IP address' isn't a valid member.

Cannot mount certain partitions: /dev/ entries do not exist
Hello all. Strange problem here. First I will describe my disk layout. I triple boot Gentoo, Arch, and FreeBSD. My partitions look like this:
/dev/hda = MAXTOR 6L040J2, ATA DISK drive 40GB
hda1 = shared '/boot' partition
hda2 = gentoo '/' partition
hda3 = gentoo '/usr/' partition
hda4 = gentoo '/home' partition
/dev/hdb = SAMSUNG SP0802N, ATA DISK drive 80GB
hdb1 = shared music partition mounted as /home/music on both Gentoo and Arch
hdb2 = shared swap partition
hdb3 = FreeBSD partition
hdb4 = logical Partition
hdb5 = archlinux '/' partition
hdb6 = shared video partition mounted as /home/music/video on both Gentoo and Arch
Now both gentoo and arch use devfs. From gentoo I can see all partitions in the /dev directory and mount accordingly, however, from Arch I cannot mount my gentoo partitions on /dev/hda, and in fact they do not even exist in the /dev directory. Only /dev/hda1 is visible (the shared boot partition which holds all my kernels regardless of distro).
Running fdisk -l /dev/hda from arch gives me this puzzling output:
Disk /dev/hda: 40.0 GB, 40027029504 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4866 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 4111 33021576 55 EZ-Drive
So it would seem that fdisk thinks that /dev/hda1 takes up the entire drive, and is labeled as 'EZ-Drive'?!?!?!?!?!? I can assure you that running the same command from gentoo gives me the correct partitions and disklabels ie: id 83 Linux
Does anyone have a clue as to what is going on here? This isn't really a big deal at this point, just an interesting annoyance that I would like to discover the cause of.
TIAI don't know how it could be that the kernels interpret the partition table differently, and I'm certainly not sure that this is what's going on. That's why I suggested loading Arch with the Gentoo kernel. I wouldn't expect the system to be its true self, but merely satesfy the curiosity by checking whether it would see the right partitions (a.k.a. trouble-shooting).
It shouldn't be a problem to test this, unless your Arch root uses a file system that is not built into your Gentoo kernel. If for instance hdb5 is reiserfs and your 2.4 kernel has that as a module, you're probably out of luck regarding my suggestion. If this is the case, you could also try the Arch 2.4 kernel. It can coexist with your current kernel because the kernel packages for the two trees have different names.
pacman -S kernel
Hope this helps,

Cannot mount any firewire/USB external drive after software update 10.5.4
After the last software update on 10.5.4 it did not complete the installation, and get stuck at the last step of running installation script for hours. So I have to restart the computer, and it restarted fine. Then I use Disk Utility to check my hard disk, and discovered some file system inconsistency error, so I repaired it (in target disk mode by another Mac). After it is repaired, the file system passed with no error.
But ever since then, I cannot mount any external firewire drive or USB drive. I cannot use Time Machine to backup my disk. I think my firewire and USB ports are fine because I can restart my iMac in target mode and connect to my MacBook via firewire, so the hardwire ports are functional, except that it seems 10.5.4 cannot detect or mount any external drive after the failed software update.
Does anyone encounter similar problem? How can I fix it? I have my disk backed up by TimeMachine but I cannot restore it if it won't let me mount my TimeMachine disk. Is there any other way other than completely reinstall 10.5 from scratch?first, you should try reinstalling 10.5.4. download the [combo update|http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1054com boupdate.html] and run it. If that doesn't fix the issue, you can use full system restore from TM to go back to a time before the troubles started. to do that boot from the leopard install dvd, once past the language screen go to the Utilities menu at the top and choose "restore from backup".
