Ssh packet MAC corrupt, USB interference, RAM swapping fixes... Why?

I swapped memory in my 2010 mid Macbook pro. The RAM is labeled PC3 10600, just as the RAM that was previously in the machine is labeled.
However, with the new RAM in the machine, ssh is unstable - which makes Time Machine fail, for instance - as well as having interence on USB audio. Swapping back fixes the issue.
But no amount of RAM tests find fault in the new sims.
It's very frustrating! Has anyone else had this issue? Time Machine failing with new RAM?

How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility

How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility?
Last night i was using my external hard drive, for some reason the folder just closed and i couldn't find it on my desktop.
After googling solutions, i found it in the disk utilities, i clicked on the 'repair' button many times, but it said the 'error...' message.
So i ejected it to try again, now when i connect the USB external hard drive it doesn't show up on my desktop or disk utilities.
I really just want to either repair or recover the data on it because it literally has everything (documents, work files, photos etc) on it,
I downloaded an application to recover my files but it needs the USB to at least show up.recognise it which mine doesn't.
I know i should've backed it up on another USB, this definitely teaches me for next time to back up all my files.
Are the files lost forever or can i recover them by going to a shop or using a software?

Thank you for responding.
This might sound stupid since i'm not really knowledgeable with Macs,
but since all my files were moved from my mac computer to the external hard drive,
is it possible to recover those files through my Mac - like recovering deleted files?

Fuji F30 camera won't mount OS 10.3.9 2 different Macs via USB no connect

I have a Fuji F30 digital camera - also my daughter's Fuji F11 will not mount/connect through USB on either of my 2 Macs running OS X 10.39 - A Dual 1Ghz G4 and a 867 Mgz G4 Powerbook.
My daughter's Fuji F11 connects fine on her eMac with OS X 10.3.4.
I even installed the Fuji Finepix software on my dual gig to see if that would help - no good. I was about to update the eMac to 10.3.9 I'm glad I didn't.
To check it wased the cable or camera, I installed the Fuji USB drivers etc. on my Windows 98 machine and the Fuji F30 connected, copied fine and the card wasn't corrupted.
Is there a fix for this?
Is this a problem in 10.4?
Thanks, Phillip
===
This is probably a different matter:
Also I have a Zio Caramate card reader for the xD cards. I can mount and copy to my Macs running OS 10.3.9 but after unmounting and removing xD card, card is corrupted and needs to be reformated so all images are lost from card.
Do you think this is a card reader problem or could it be the same 10.3.9 USB thing?

Fuji F30 just came to the market. The correct driver for that camera may be missing in 10.3.9. which is probably older than the F30. In case you have Adobe Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, you could download the latest update and probably have the F30 supported in that way (?). The same thing could help with reading the card correctly. This is my experience with other digital cameras.

I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac. The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. Any tips on how to do this?

I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac. The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. I installed the current Bonjour printer services software on the Windows machine, and separately installed the driver software for the Epson printer on the WIndows machine. Running the bonjour wizard, I get an alert saying 'I don't have sufficient access to my computer to connect to the selected printer'.
The printer has 'sharing' turned on from the Mac end; this works with a Powerbook via the wireless connection. Sharing is also turned on in the Windows printer control panel for this printer (under properties). The Mac is a G5 running 10.5.8. When I try to print a page from the Windows machine it gets hung in the print queue.
Any advice how to proceed would be appreciated!

I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit ? And office pro 2013 64 bit too?

I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows programs I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit or just install 32 bit? (Going with Win7 as I hate Win8). And I will install Office Pro 2013 64 bit too or 32 bit or is that automatically selected by the underlying OS (I use Word, Excel and Access mainly for a membership database of a local club) ? I am not a power user so would appreciate advice on way to go

Again thank you. If I only use word, excel and access in the Win environment and Mac OS for email and safari for internet do I need anti virus software . Ie my connection to the world is mac only and I use office pro only to ruin the club, newsletters, membership database etc. and of course anything I do there can drag/drop to the mac environ to email. That's my understanding anyway. Next will my existing .pst file copy directly into mac mail or do I have to runs translator as I recall reading something about that ages ago when I started thinking Mac

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities!
Yes, you can install Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit in your Mac using Parallels for Mac. Just follow the instructions of the virtualization programs during the install. Should you need any assistance with the installation process, I strongly recommend contacting Parallels Tech Support (you must register with Parallels in order to have tech support).
Alternatively, you can always use Apple's BootCamp if you want to run Windows natively in your Mac. Check their support page, Apple has a lot of good links explaining this solution.
Hope this helps!

New Intel Mac mini: Is 1G Ram Enough?

Hello everyone.
I intend to get my dad and my sis (upgrade from her old iMac G3) each a new Intel Mac mini Core Solo.
I understand that the new Intel Mac mini shares the ram memory between the processor and the "in-built" graphics... also understand from an Apple KB docu that it is best to pair the same ram to maximise efficiency or something...
My dad will be mainly in iPhoto, organising his digital photos, burning CDs and touching up a bit here and there; And both of them will be using mainly to surf, email, chat, maybe a bit of word processing etc - I would say "light to moderate work"
So is 1Gb of Ram enough for the processor and the graphics? I would probably try to max out as big a hard disk for them... and a 19" monitor...
Thanks and cheers

If he can afford it, I would recommend putting 2-1G modules in there. OS X loves RAM and will call for even more running apps under Rosetta.

A barcode scanner that was connected directly to the Mac's USB port stopped working as the "USB had too much power drawn", even though it has worked for over a year in that port. WHen we plugged it into the port on the keyboard, the device works. Why?

A barcode scanner that was connected directly to the Mac's USB port stopped working as the "USB had too much power drawn", even though it has worked for over a year in that port. When we plugged it into the port on the keyboard, the device works. Why? Obviously the device is operational. Could the USB port have burned out from having too much power drawn? If so, is it reparable?

It can't draw "too much" power, it can only draw as much as the USB port is able to provide and no more. IIRC, the keyboard port has a lower power output than the iMac's port.
That being said, yea, it's possible that the port has failed and it can be replaced or if another port works you can use that one. Although if it is still under warranty or covered by Apple Care, then I would take it to an Apple Store or service provider to get the port repaired.

Connect 2 macs with USB?

I ordered 2 macbook pros and an imac for my family. i need to transfer their files from the windows pcs to the new macs. what kind of cord do i need and where can i buy one?

Depends a lot on how much stuff you have and whether you are planning on keeping the windows machines.
the Macs all come with wireless networking and gigbit ethernet, and it is reasonably easy to set up a network connection to handle the transfer and for subsequent ongoing communication with the windows computers. On the other hand, if the amount of material is not very great then a nice big memory stick or an external drive is a great way to go (If you get an external, get one with a combined FW and USB interface - FW is much faster on the Macs than USB and you can then use the drive for backups etc).
Cheers

Can the mac mini i7, 8gigs ram, edit avchd 1920/1080p without having to convert it?

Can the mac mini i7, 8gigs ram, external FW800 drive, edit avchd 1920/1080p without having to convert it?
Can you scrub the TL at 5x speed and not have it stutter?

By default it converts it to ProRes 422, though you can specify other codecs.
Why convert it?
Although FCP X can handle AVCHD natively, AVCHD being a "delivery" codec is not really suitable for editing.
ProRes is designed specifically for ease of editing especially with complex effects and colour correction.
If your editing is going to be fairly basic you can get away with leaving your media as AVCHD.
Note also that an hour of ProRes is around 50GB !

IPad air audio to Mac via USB

I would like to connect my iPad Air Lightning Output to my Mac Pro via the Mac Pro USB for input of audio from the iPad to the Mac Pro. My Mac is connected to my audio equipment via analog audio out and the TOS connector. I would like to connect the iPad Air to my Mac because these audio connectors are hidden behind my workstation and I already use the MacPro USB port for power/charging the iPad Air. Connecting the headphone out of the iPad to another interface in order to get to my amp is simply another cable that I don't need or want. Less cables are always better IMHO.
Ideas?
Thanks,
Pete D.

usb is a digital serial bus it does not carry analog audio to be able to do what you wish a program would have to run on both devices and I doubt that 3th party programs can get access to the usb port in ios
your best bet is to connect the minijack audio out connector of the ios device to a minijack analog input port like line or mic in on the mac
if a such does not exist then you can get usb audio cards for the computer which would have a 3.5mm minijack line in

My processes take up 10 GB of Ram, (sum all processes memory size with the ps auxwww command).
My questions are:
1) Why the vmstat output display only 643 MB of available ram ( free ram) ?
2) Why the swap -s output, the sum of used plus available is not equal to physical memory (16 GB) plus disk swap (16GB)?
Please help me for understand this issue

1) There are things in the kernel that will allocate memory at will (like file system cache) and as long as you have not met the scan threshold, the memory pages will not free up. This is no cause for alarm. IT just skews the results. Deal with it. We all do.
2) You must be referring to the statement in the manpage "These numbers include swap space from all configured swap areas as listed by the -l option, as well swap space in the form of physical memory". The key element in the statement is "swap space in the <b>form of physical memory</b>" which is <b>not</b> physical memory but a small part of it.

My mac disk is full and i cant transfer files from Mac to USB. saying the format is not good, how can i change the format and what happened to the files i have on USB?

Once something similar happened to me. The external drives I had set up for FCP to use for some reason were not mounted, and FCP put all its render files on the main drive and I couldn't find them anywhere.
Go to applications, and control-click (and hold down) on your FCP icon; you should get a pop up menu that says "show package contents". Select that, select the "contents" folder, then the "mac OS" folder. See if your quicktime file is in there, or if you've got render files in the "render" folder or audio render files in the "audio render" folder that don't belong there.
That's where FCP sticks stuff when your documents FCP project folders are not available or when external drives you've selected aren't available.

MacBook Pro and Dell N5010 Ram Swap?

Hi guys I don't know much about this subject so any help would be great.
I have a Macbook Pro 13 inch with Lion, 4GB of Ram which is basically the early 2011 model
and my mom wanted to buy a laptop so she bought a Dell N5010 with Windows 7 and 8GB of ram.
I looked up my type of ram and its DDR3 which is also the same type my moms Dell uses, thing is she doesn't need that much ram since all she does is email, surf the web, and things like that. So, I asked her if she was ok with me switching the ram with each other and she said it was fine with her.
My question is if this is possible? I know that if we change enough components on a desktop, Windows won't recognize the system and have us reactivate/ reinstall it but since its just a ram swap will there be any complications?
The extra ram would be great since I'm always rendering our home movies and (attempting) to make iOS games on my Macbook Pro, rather than just surfing the web and whatnot.
Thanks for any help guys!!

if they are ddr3 and support the same pins, I don't see why it would hurt to try. who made your mom's ram? if it's samsung, you're almost golden as long as the pins match. When you have both sticks out, compare their connectors (the gold part along the edge) and see if they match exactly.
Having said that, I would look up the make and model and google the model of the ram (comany name ddr3) and macbookpro.
