SOS!! PROBLEM WITH  MY  DISK DRIVES. I'M TOTALL CONFUSED

it looks like my last problem was just the tip of the iceberg. To recap: At the time my goal was to rescue files from the two hard drives in my Mac G4, which I was ready to part with, when I learned dhow much repairs would cost. Can't remember how far along I was in the process when I requested help, but eventually was able to transfer the files from both drives to a much larger Seagate external drive. Before disposing of the drives, I figured I had better erase them, as well. Had I known it was going to take 5 days to run 7 passes, I might have had second thoughts, but once it was completed successfully, I decided to do the same for the second drive, which was much smaller.
My current problem started when I connected that drive to my iMac (via a USB to IDE & SATA cable) and brought up the image; then got cold feet, thinking of the possibility I might accidentally erase everything on my iMac.
Before erasing the larger drive I had "colored " the icon orange in order to differentiate it from the drive on the iMac, but got spooked when the new drive also showed up orange this morning. Also thought I remembered seeing a choice of drives to erase the first time, but this time did not see an icon for the iMac. Also could not find it on the desktop, since it was not where I remembered having seen the last time I looked (probably ages ago — buried in the upper right hand corner — usually under a stack of other files).
After much searching, I found an icon elsewhere on the desktop, but with the name I recalled having given to my G4 — not that of the iMac, which I don't think I ever renamed. . . And when I clicked on its desktop, the files looked familiar, but definitely different than the ones I expected to find. . . On the other hand, clicking on the finder's desktop, brought up all the files I expected. The number of files on drive each also was different. The icon's desktop showed 111 documents; the finder's desktop twice that many . . . but the total unused capacity for both was identical.
All I can think of is that I must have messed up when I first got the iMac several years ago and used a crossover cable to transfer files onto it from the G4. I do recall that my intention was to copy only the files I really wanted, but suddenly ended up with everything from the G4's drive. But even if I did, I suspect but am not sure I understand why I ended up with the G4's icon and not just a bunch of files in a folder. . . Also, if the icon was there from Day 1, does that mean I somehow renamed the iMac's icon, or was there ever an icon for the iMac drive in the first place?
Finally, can someone reassure me that if I just go ahead and erase the "orange" drive, I won't destroy any of the files on my iMac desktop today? Since all I could find in the icon was a bunch of old files, I would sort thru them at my leisure and get on with my life today. I

Still trying to follow last suggestion, but am starting to feel like a Mac newbie. I'm relly not, which makes it even more frustrating.
Have been trying since the weekend to start up from my install disk. (Holding "C" key down while rebooting . . . but the Install searched the Startup Disk Folder, bu it only shows System X and Network.disk is not booting; just sitting on the desktop with the option to install). Have also searched the "Startup Disk fodler" but it only shows system X and Network.
Meanwhile, I contacted Seagate Tech support, which was amazingly helpful, considering their internal drive was added to my now deceased Powermac G4 at least 8 years ago. Technician agreed that the memory probably was "clipped" some way, but emailed a links to 2 files that should work on Mac (http://www.seagate.com/staticfiles/support/seatools/SeaToolsDOS217EURO.ISO
User Guide. and http://seagate.custkb.com/seagate/crm/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=201271 . . . suggesting that I burn the first one to a separate disk and boot from that. But since my iMac won't recognize another Mac startup disk, am just a little reluctant to try with one that's "outside the family."
Any chance I could end up making my current problemn worse, rather than better?

  • My MacBook Pro 13 inch makes a clicking noise from the hard drive and can not start up in safe mode and normal. I then ran disk utility in recovery mode and disk utility shows no problems with the hard drive. What is the problem?

    Please help me, I have a mid 2010 Mac book pro with a toshiba mk3266gsxf harddrive. It started making a clicking noise and then my computer crashed. I proceeded to boot in safe mode, but it doesn't work. When I ran disk utility in recovery mode, it showed no problem with my disk. Does any one know what the problem is?

    Sounds like a mechanical problem with the drive and it ruined the sectors where the Macintosh HD partition (and OS X, and files and programs) reside, but not your Recovery HD partition.
    If you held command option r while booting, that's Internet Recovery and it's loaded via the Internet, not via the Recovery HD partition on the boot drive, so that could mean the drive is dead mechanically or there is another issue.
    In either case the drive will likely have to be replaced, it's a matter of what occured to where and the drive state if you can recover data or not. If you made recent backups then your fine.
    My computer is not working, is my personal data lost?

    apple new macbook pro dosent have a disk drive. Does the older model have a problem with the disc drive and so is removed in the new model?

    No. Apple replaced the disk drive with a solid state drive (SSD) instead. The SSD is faster the old disk drive.

  • [SOLVED] Problem with second SATA drive

    My laptop has two hard drive bays, and just recently I added a second SATA drive (moved it from my old laptop) to the extra bay.
    Now, anytime the second hard drive /dev/sdb has any heavy disk activity, it appears to cause a shutdown of the SATA port for the first drive (/dev/sda)!  Though the second drive is still fine, and I can still write to it until the system crashes from the root drive (on /dev/sda) being shutdown.
    If I don't mount and use the second drive, the first drive works just fine, and I can pound it with traffic without issue.
    I can reproduce this problem by copying large amounts of data to drive 2.
    This is when I get in my dmesg when the first SATA drive shuts down:

    I have experimented, and found that if I turn off NCQ on the kernel command line in my bootloader (libata.force=noncq), that it takes longer before the problem occurs.  Though, if I write enough to the second drive, it does still happen after a while, just greatly reduced its chances of happening.
    Is it possible that the old drive (sdb) is causing the problem?  I noticed that it is much noisier than I remember when the drive head moves around.
    Another curiosity while I was trying to duplicate the problem:
      - I start a large file copy from sda -> sdb
      - At the same time in another terminal, I do "find / -print"
      - When I hear the drive 2 head moving, it pauses the output of the "find" command.
    Every time I hear the head move, I see the find output pause.  Its almost like the drive seek on drive 2 causes the whole Sata controller to pause while the head moves.  Very odd!
    Anyone have any ideas?   I think the next thing I will try is borrow a drive from another machine, and do the big write to it to see if I get the same results.
    If it is of any help, here is some more info on the laptop:

    It appears my drive one really is failing.  It was the first drive and not the second making the loud head seek sound.  I borrowed another drive from a friend, and copied my drive one to it.   No problems with the new drive in place.

  • Problem with SSD disk in MacBook Pro

    I have a very weird problem with my SSD drive 128 GB in a MacBook Pro (early 2011). The warranty has already expired, I don't have Apple Care.
    I had Mac OS Lion installed, and once when I opened the lid as usual to wake the system up, the system appeared to be frozen. I had to shut it down, and when swithched on again, the system didn't load - it was showing the apple and loading circle all the time.
    I've tried a lot of things:
    1) First I checked the disk loading from the CDs that came with the laptop. Disk verification didn't run for the first time (image), for the second time it showed an error (image)
    2) I went to Apple store, where they made a quick hardware check, which showed everything was OK, supposed that it was a software problem a offered me to reinstall the OS. And failed to do that.
    3) I took out the hard drive and connected it via USB adapter. I could see and read the contents of the disk.
    4) I COULD LOAD the OS and work from the disk, connected by USB
    4) I tried to reinstall the OS myself (with the disk connected by SATA), and it was always freezing when searching for available disks.
    5) I installed the OS on this drive, connected by USB - all went smoothly, it installed and was working, while when connected through SATA it didn't load.
    6) Finally, I swapped my SSD with freshly installed OS with a usual HDD from another mac. BOTH WORK: my SSD in another Mac, and HDD in mine.
    So, I've come to a conclusion that the problem is not in the disk itself, and not in my laptop's SATA interface, but in communication with SSD through SATA, probably some controller on the mainboard.
    Question: Can anybody suggest anything on how I can confirm or disprove that? Or any thoughts about whether it can be fixable or not?
    Thanks.

    Exactly the same happened to me. Yesterday morning I opened the lid of my MBP8,1 (late 2011) on a meeting with a client and It just did not wake up :-/ After forced reboot it would never boot stuck on the same place.
    Now what is happening any HDD will be recognized and booted aswell 10/10 attempts but SSD will not boot eventhough I reinstalled it all. The SSD WILL boot in other MBP and is visible on other systems.
    The SSD WILL BOOT via USB.
    I do not believe the disk is the problem.
    My MB was replaced just few months ago. My SATA cable was replaced some time before the MB.

  • Problem with the Display Driver

    Hi.
    I just got this message when I started Adobe Photoshop today, that's the CS4 edition, about that there was a problem with the Display driver: "Photoshop have encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the Performance panel of Preferences"
    My problem is not what to do but how to do it. I went to System profiler and found something "ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro, and: Chipset Model: ATI,RadeonHD2600".
    And so I want to ATI's website but can't find what I'm looking for.
    Any help?

    I have cs6 - master collection. I bought it on last december and i didn't upgrade it.
    "After Effects" works for some minutes and then it stucks and give the massege above
    "Display driver NVIDIA Windows kernel Mode Driveer, Version 334.89 stopped, responding and has succesfully recovered."
    and preimer works and suddenly the computer crashes not before giving the massege :
    "The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver due to exceeding the Windows Time-Out limit and is unable to continue.
    The aaplication must close.  error code: 7"
    I have new computer :

  • Mac Pro Early 2008 problems with firewire 400 drives

    I am having some sporadic problems with firewire 400 drives and am trying to figure out my best options going forward. System 10.5.2 has hung on me twice in the first week of use, and each time I noticed from console there were some problems accessing one or more of these drives (even though I wasn't doing any reads/writes to/from them). Just before one of the crashes, Disk Utility also had problems "seeing" these drives. My external firewire drives are:
    Maxtor OneTouch III 750GB
    Acomdata enclosure/Seagate 400GB
    LaCie d2/160GB
    LaCie w/Lightscribe DVD
    I have this "cobbled" arrangement because I just upgraded from an eMac and needed these drives to manage video files, audio files, photos, etc. While I'd love to go out and buy new internals to install in my spare bays, and migrate the data to them, I will have to do that in stages as my budget is tapped out at the moment. My MacPro is the base version of the early 2008 units, with 300GB internal.
    In the interim, is it worth troubleshooting firmware updates for these externals, or am I destined to continue to have firewire problems? Is there a straight-forward/inexpensive way to remove these drives from enclosures/install in drive bays with an adaptor? I believe the external hard drives are all ATA type drives.
    Thanks in advance for any counsel.

    I would assume that the Maxtor may be SATA. Does it have an eSATA port? Also, there were a lot of threads (in OS X Leopard forum) about those OneTouch units. Same can be said for LaCie problems.
    Yes, check for firmware and configuration. In some cases, and what I do with any new OS, is to reformat all drives - gradually. Given the age of the eMac I'd guess firmware is out of date, and that the drives are formatted some time ago. While you don't have to use GUID, it is a good idea eventually, or just reformat a drive.
    Don't forget to test your drives with Disk Warrior (4.1) also.
    750GB WD Caviar is $139 SATA.

    Are you using daisy chains? you have one FW bus shared by front and back ports. Do you have any on FW800 or using FW400 to FW800 adapter cable? PCI Express FW400 card might even help a little.
    Never had trouble with OWC enclosures:

  • Problem With Target Disk Mode

    Folowing upgrade of my Mini and Powerbook to Tiger I have a problem with target Disk Mode when I attempt to eject the transfer to disk following transfer of my user file. I get an error message to the effect that files are in use and the disk can not be ejected. I try force quit (finder only is running) usually to no effect. Sometimes attempting to verify disk permissions in disk utility will clear the problem and allow me to eject the disk. One time it took close to an hour attempting to eject the disk. Is there another way?
    PB   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I had this problem with external volumes like ZIP discs and also external hard drives. Sometimes it was an app used on one of the external files still being open (eg. Word for a text file) which had to be quitted first. The "trackpad" button equals the mouse button which is on the PowerBook. Repairing the target disk via disk utility might also help.

  • I'm having problem with hard disk problem. I recently purchased HP pavilion G series notebook.

    There is error displaying that there is a problem with hard disk please back up your data and contact manfature. I purchased these recently in 2011 december in india. Please help me what to do.

    The error usually means what it says. Back up your data to a thumb drive or something before it crashes and call HP Support for a hard drive replacement.

  • Problem with i915 Intel driver panic..

    Hello,
    I just recently reinstalled Arch on my laptop.  I have a problem with my laptop. When I went to install the Nvidia Optimus stuff and configure my Xorg.conf I was met with problems with the Intel Driver timing out.  When I boot up I get the normal post screen, then grub, I then go to see the GDM login and instead of getting it I just get a black screen.  When I remove the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-monitor.conf I can boot into Gnome Shell, else I have to switch run levels and login that way.  I have every package up-to-date.  And I haven't seen an /var/log/Xorg.0.log either else I would have posted it.  One other thing is I have added my user account to the Bumblebee account.  One other thing is when I move my web browser around my video flickers..  Any help I can receive with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi
    I assume you have installed the graphic card driver from the Intel website and you use NOT a Toshiba graphic driver which was designed especially for the notebook usage.
    Well, Toshiba recommend using the Toshiba drivers. In this case you should try to use the recommended graphic driver which you can download from the Toshiba driver page.

  • How do i transfer program from iMac to macbook with no disk drive

    Hi I have a imac with cs5. I now have a macbook pro with no disk drive. How do i download the older cs5 onto my new macbook pro? Thanks

    You are allowed to have up to two activated installations of each version license you own, so unless you have already installed it to another system, you should be fine.  If not, phone customer support.  I've never heard of them refusing to reset a person's activations.

  • Trying to download CS5 extended on a new laptop with no disk drive.  Do not have my old activation serial number to do it online...any help much appreciated.

    you need your serial number to activate.

  • Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver

    I rummaged around in here looking at opengl topics and others associated with the above error, but I'm not seeing what I'm encountering (or I am and I don't recognize it!).....
    I bought CS4 a week or so ago, and installed it on a system running XP32 with service pack 3, 4GB of ram withe the /3GB switch set, nVidia 8600 GT card (which according to the list is supported), and multiple spindles for images, scratch, applications, and so on. I found other topics earlier so I downloaded the most recent drivers for my video card.
    I'm not crashing and burning, but I'm getting some messages...
    I opened an image, and while working on it I wanted to do a transform/warp. I got the message that Photoshop couldn't perform the operation because there wasn't enough memory. It didn't crash but I had to shut down CS4 and restart it to do the warp.
    Most recently I opened a couple images for a panorama, and while doing the merge I got the message that "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled gpu enhancements." It tells me to check for the latest drivers - I've ALREADY got the lastest drivers. Again, no crash, just the warning. It completed the panorama.
    There have been a couple other occurrences of messages of this type, so I'm curious if there's some set of preferences or system settting I need to adjust to optimize things? I've alrady adjusted the nVidia settings because I also run Lightroom and they're having problems too.
    I've read the tech notes for the video and such and didn't find any set of optimizations there so is there a set of adjustments beyond the preferences that needs to be adjusted to improve memory and video performance? And if so, can someone point me to them.

    As I understand it (suspect at best) XP32 can address 4 gig of memory. the /3gb switch lets the applications get at 3 gig of that. If my video card takes the first 256MB, and XP is guaranteed the other 750 of the 1st gig, and in the CS4 performance preferences I should be giving it from 1462 - 1895 MB (I've given it around 1890), that leaves me with another gig or so... Is that limited to applications or can XP use it? In any case, I'm not crashing, I just get the message every so often about being out of memory. I don't recall ever seeing this with CS3, but new version, new oddities...
