The aircard is no longer recognized
Since I've installed OS.10.8.5 onto my MacBook Pro, the aircard (ATT's Adrenaline 4-G by LG) isn't recognized. Help!
Is the computer in you equipment line:
Dual Core Intel Xenon
(which is not a PowerMac but a Mac Pro) the one you are asking about, or do you have an older PowerMac?
If a Mac Pro, their forums are here:
Mac Pro
and, as Mac Pros have a totally different architecture from the pre-2005 Macs this forum covers, you may not have the same issues that can affect the older models. If someone didn't notice your equipment line, you could get advice that doesn't apply.
If you really have a pre-2005 PowerMac, read on.
If the stubborn external is USB and does not have its own power brick (i.e., it gets power only from the computer's UBS ports--"bus powered"), it may not be getting enough power. As electric motors age, they can demand more power than when new, and the power available on any USB port is limited.
The typical workabouts to making a computer recognize an aging, bus-powered USB drive are:
Get a powered USB hub (has its own power brick
Get a "Y" USB cable: 1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
The second gets power from two USB ports on the computer and often that's enough.
Remember that the USB ports on your keyboard seldom provide enough power even for a thumb drive, so be sure to use the USB ports on the back of the computer.

I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac. The drive is not listed in Disk Utility. Any suggestions?

First time I connected after an update, there was a message on the phone that this accessory is no longer supported. After that there were no more messages and car's display is showing the message "no USB device connected" even though iPhone is connected to a cable. It was working fine on iOS 3, 4, 5 and 6.
You clearly did not notice that you have joined a USER TO USER COMMUNITY FORUM
This is NOT Apple ,Apple do not read nor do they therefore respond
So if you would like to wind your neck in ........................
try a reset of iPhone and then a restore,best, as new and if it then functions correctly try restoring with your backup -
I live in thailand. I back up my 2 Ipads on my computer. Suddenly yesterday the ipad 3 went blank excpt for the B/White logo on the screen. The ipad is no longer recognized on my computer when I plug it in to my back up computer with the usb connection. Until now the ipad worked perfectly. I have tried to be sure the ipad is charged but i have no way to be sure it is because the screen had nothing on it but the apple logo. I can not try to restore my system because i can not find the ipad3 on my back up computer since the back up computer shows nothing for the ipad 3 and screen on the ipad3 shows nothing to signify but the apple logo. the ipad does not respond to taps etc.
How can i reactivate the ipad 3? My ipad 1 still works fine.
my operating system is windows proHave you tried rebooting the computer as well? Shut it totally off, then restart it and try again.If you are already on iOS 6.1.2 as your signature states, the only way to install an update/restore the phone would be to connect it to the PC.

2 TB External Drive no Longer Recognized by iMac 27"
I have a 2 TB external HD (actually two 1 TB drives housed together in a OQC Mercury Elite Case) that has been working flawlessly for about 10 months as my Time Machine backup to the iMac 27". I have it hooked via FW800.
Yesterday I noticed that TM backup failed and when playing around, I also noticed that the drive was no longer recognized. I check System Profiler and the drive was not seen. I did a PRAM reset (as this usually fixed the FW800 issues), but still no drive.
Thinking I had a faulty FW800 port on the iMac, I switched the connection to USB 2. I see the Drive listed in the USB Device Tree in System Profiler, but still nothing on Finder.
I opened Disk Utliltiy and I see a listing for a "2 TB External Raid Media" and then as a indent is says "Disk 3s3", but this is grayed out and you can not click on it to, say, repair permissions.
I installed an update late Friday night and I have no idea if this is the reason, but I am curious what the next step might be. I am using 10.6.4.James,
There are some basics you can do to do trouble shoot the FW800 problem. First is doing a SMC reset, follow the instructions for Intel based iMacs. This letter covers multiple models of Macs and you need to follow the correct procedure.
The next item to try would be resetting the PRAM.
Finally The X Lab has written a good article on troubleshooting Firewire devices. You can locate that article here.
Hope this helps out some.

SSD Upgraded MacBook Pro 2011 freezes, hangs, until SSD is no longer recognized
Hello.
Enough with the small talk. I have MacBook Pro 13" Late 2011 with Lion that I upgraded with a 128GB Vertex 4 SSD about 8 months ago. I moved the original HDD into the optical bay and slipped the Vertex 4 into its place. Everything was all good and well until about a month ago when my computer started freezing and hanging (I'm not exactly sure what the difference is or if they're interchangeable words). To be more descriptive, I would have some applications open and it would randomly freeze, leaving me with a rainbow wheel I could control. The computer would then be essentially unresponsive other than the ability to click between apps, but if I did it a couple times everything would become completely unresponsive and I would be left with the spinning pinwheel. At first I thought the computer would right itself, but it stayed like that for 30 minutes one time, with the fan ending up blowing as hard as it could and the temperature of the computer becoming quite warm. The only thing I would be able to do at that point was to hold the power button to force restart the computer. Then the whole process would happen again, once more than 10 times a day. It didn't seem like the hanging was due to intensive use of the computer; sometimes I would literally just have one window open browsing the interwebs and it would give up on me, and other times it wouldn't happen until I had a billion tabs open streaming tv shows on every single one.
At its very worst, I had to hard reset the computer yet again, but when it booted up the SSD was no longer recognized. It was as if I unplugged and removed it so there was nothing in the primary bay and I just turned the computer on. So it booted to the that thing with the options: recover from time machine backup, reinstall Lion, get help online, or disk utility. However, the SSD does not appear in the disk utility, I can't reinstall Lion to it (because it's not an option), and I can't use the SSD as a startup disk (also because it's not an option). I was completely sure it was a faulty SSD so I sent it to OCZ, who then crushed my hopes and told me there was nothing wrong with the drive.
My hunch after several hours of digging throgh other forums is that something is wrong with my logic board, but I'm obviously posting this because I don't have any confidence in my hunch and would rather have some feedback before I go splurging on a diagnosis or - oh no! - another logic board.
Thanks in advance, maybe.As I mentioned I sent it back to them, and they replied with this:
"I would like to inform you that the RMA drive you sent back to us is no trouble found. Hence we will ship the same unit back to you.
Below is all the actions were performed on your drive.
• Writes every block on the drive many times.
• Verifies all data written.
• Reads every block on the drive many times.
• Tracks performance during this test, and makes sure it is within expected ranges.
• Tracks SMART data throughout this process to ensure proper functionality and recording of info."
Then in a later email:
"We thoroughly tested the drive on several machines. The drive has passed all testing with no faults found. The drive is functioning correctly as received. "
I am actually praying that its my SSD or a broken SATA cable (no chance) because those are relatively cheap.
Any ideas? -
Why are keywords for Delicious bookmarks no longer recognized in Firefox 25 and Firefox 26?
I use Delicious Bookmarks 2.3.4 for synchronizing bookmarks and their keywords on different computers. After updating to Firefox 25 the keywords are no longer recognized. If I enter a keyword like "foo" it doesn't send me to the bookmark with the keyword but starts a google search for "foo". When I downgrade to Firefox 24 it works again.
Was this change introduced by purpose (like the keyword search removal in FF 23) or is this only some side effect?
Is there any way to get rid of this problem and have that feature again?That would be a question for Delicious support or Help.
Have you tried some basic Firefox troubleshooting, like the Firefox SafeMode? <br />
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode
Firefox 25 was released 6 1/2 weeks ago and this is the first mention I have seen in this forum about Delicious keywords no longer working in Firefox 25 and above. -
IPhone no longer recognized as a drive on my Windows machine
When I connect my iPhone to my computer, the standard window/dialog no longer appears, asking me what I want to do (Open this folder for viewing, etc.). The iPhone is no longer recognized as a drive on my computer. Consequently, I can no longer browse the iPhone's photos folder as a regular Windows drive.
I opened the Device Manager and Apple iPhone appears in the Portable Devices section with the error message "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged."
However, when I connect the iPhone to my computer, iTunes starts up normally and begins syncing the iPhone. I just want to regain the ability to browse my iPhone's photos folder the way I used to.
I've reinstalled iTunes, but that hasn't helped.
Has anyone else faced this problem? Are there any suggestions/solutions out there?
Thanks in advance.To copy photos from the Camera Roll start your photo capture software on your computer. Does that application recognize your iPhone as a camera? Is so you're good to go for copying the photos to your computer.

Sony Handycam HDR no longer recognized
I have a Sony HDR HDD camcorder that, for quite a while now, had no issues with its 4pin DV-USB cable (that came with it) connection to my Mac Pro being recognized by iMovie 9. I haven't made a video in a couple of months, but recently, I filmed about 3 hours worth of wedding footage, connected the camcorder to the Mac as before, iPhoto recognized it instantly (and auto-launched as always) but iMovie refuses to believe the camcorder exists.
I've been told that no stores sell Sony's proprietary DV cables for their products (which makes since as universality would only benefit consumers and not businesses). Additionally, some go so far as to say Sony doesn't even make such a firewire cable to handle an issue wherein iMovie 9 now requires a firewire connection—or so I've heard.
1) Has iMovie 9 been nerfed in some update that now requires camcorders to be connected via firewire now.
2) If so, is there some method to import the videos either directly to the finder or into iMovie without the need for a potentially non-existent DV-Firewire cable?
PS: The connection is no longer recognized on my iMac as well.Well… I opened Image Capture with the camcorder plugged in and modified the "Connecting this camera opens…" menu to be iMovie. Unfortunately, all that resulted in was opening iMovie upon connecting the camera. iMovie still refuses to acknowledge that the camcorder is connected.
Related: This is my work machine, wherein we do moderate amounts of video capture and I am using iMovie '08 7.1.4 on OS X 10.6.8. I'm really disappointed in Apple having altered something within iMovie (or the OS) that prevents the camcorder from being recognized. The last import I had performed was March 25, 2011.
More info regarding the camcorder: Sony Handycam HDR-SR11 60GB HDD. I am going to try to burn straight to DVD and then try and import from that, but that is, of course, not ideal. I'd much prefer to import into iMovie directly from the camera as I used to be able to do.
EDIT: I'm guessing you need to install the Picture Motion Browser software for the Disc-Burn feature of the camcorder to work. And that is only available on a Windows-based PC. -
Sony DHR-1000 DV VCR no longer recognized
Pre-Tiger, I recall using my Sony DHR-1000 DV VCR in iMovie on my PowerMac G5 (which I sold). It's also in Apple's device compatibility list for older iMovie versions. But the VCR is no longer recognized on either my iBook or my Mac Mini. Both are running Tiger and iMovie HD. The VCR doesn't show up in the Firewire section of System Profiler. My Sony HDV camcorder shows up fine on both computers using the same cable.
Was DHR-1000 support pulled from Tiger? Are the iBooks and Mac Minis different in some way than the G5 PowerMac?
This is a $5000 VCR and it's now useless without Firewire import capability!Aha ChromePlanet !
We share the same problem-mine in PAL.
This excellent link will take you to the some of the answers/noted problems.
http://www.sjoki.uta.fi/~shmhav/iMovieHD_bugs.html#quick_DVimport
I'm back to using iMovie 2.1.2 on a G5 2GIG so I can reliably do a long project with the DHR-1000. It can only be described in polite/very polite terms as "ridiculous."
Here's why:
1- iMovie 4.01 will import but on playback but will constantly have digital artifacts overlaid on viewing to external TV monitor. Pulling in/out the firewire cable from the deck (2x after a long moment each time)temporarily restores the picture until I click on a clip, bringing on the problem again. The solution is to use a camera to be able to view externally. Even then, I often have to reboot the computer otherwise there is no recognition of even the camera.
2- iMovie 3 similar problems
3- iMovie 2.1.2 works with Sony deck. instant playback view via external Sony deck.
Most of my projects are 2-4 hours. There is no other way to archive these without a DVCAM tape. Thus iMovie 2.1.2 is for me the only one of these versions I can trust.
And iMovie 5???
All the great advances in flexibility since version 2 mean little/mostly nothing in practice. So you have to ask Apple-Why is the firewire signal so weak in imovie?. I have asked , but no reply....
Was the Powermac you sold running Panther? Is that why the Sony deck was recognised?

SSD no longer recognized - do I need a new SATA cable?
Approximately 2 months ago, I successfully installed a Samsung SSD (840 EVO) in the primary bay and original HHD into the optical bay. The other day, the computer froze, so I opted to restart. Upon restart the computer rebooted using my HHD. At first, the SSD was recognized but refused to boot using the SSD. I tried 'repairing disk permissions' and received a few errors. I erased the SSD and received the same errors. The following day I restarted the MBP and the SSD was no longer recognized. I pulled the SSD out of the bay (leaving the HHD in the optical bay) and connected with an external enclosure. The SSD was recognized via USB 3.0, so I re-formatted the SSD and was able to successfully boot from the SSD in the external enclosure. I then installed the SSD in the primary bay, but was not given an option to boot the computer using the now-internal SSD.
So, do I need to replace the SATA cable? Do I need to get firmware for the SSD? Are there other workarounds you can think of? Thanks for your help!!! - Ryan

I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine. Yesterday I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion. Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?
Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.
