Toshiba Store.E TV+ 1TB does not see external WD My Book 3TB drive

Hi guys,
my Toshiba media player doesn't want to pickup my new portable HD drive.
I have a few drives, NTFS and FAT32, all work (from 1 to 2TB in sizes).
My newest drive is a WD My Book (3TB), and it doesn't want to pick it up.
Can it be that the firmware doesn't see the 3TB at all (meaning, supports it) ???

As I understand your issue, you have connected the WD My Book 3TB drive to the USB 2.0 port of the STOR.E TV+
Right?
The USB port supports plug n play so it should not be an firmware problem.
I guess the external drive requires too much power. The common USB 2.0 port provides 500mA power.
This is standard and if an external drive would require more power, the drive would not be recognized.

MBA mid-2012 does not see external display on wakeup

My mid-2012 MBA does not see external displays on wakeup. VERY annoying
I have a BenQ 24" HD display connected by HDMI and it is not seen by the Air on wakeup. I have to open the laptop, pull the mini-DV plug out 3 or 4 times before the display is recognised - some of the time. Most of the time requires a reboot with multiple cable/plug inserts.
What an absolute POS this mid-2012 MBA is! Apple finally fixed the garbage colours on external displays in 10.8.4 but the issue of recognisisng external displays remains. Its a crock. Totally regret buyiing this POS.
Have reset PRAM, SMS, cleared prefs etc etc ad nauseum. No solution with any of them. After almost a year of this garbage, the laptop is close to being thrown out as e-waste.

Imac does not see external speakers

Capture mode does not see external camera

When I use the capture in iMovie, it only allows you to choose the built in iSight camera, and the external web cam is long listed as a choice. The external works fine in other programs (like skype).
Is iMovie intentionally crippled to only work with iSight in capture mode? Or am I doing something wrong?
THanks
bob

Thanks for your help...
It is a Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 using drivers from mac.
It does show up in USB section under apple system profiler.
It is connected through a powered hub (I have tried it directly connected with no difference).
It is recognized fine in other programs, such as Skype (you can change from isight to external web cam).
I downloaded and installed iGlasses 2, but that did not solve the problem. Curiously, if memory serves me correctly, photobooth only works with isight internal, but after iGlasses 2 install, it works (only) with external (when external is available).
Any other ideas on why iMovie does not see the external web cam?

Bridge CS4 Does Not See External Drive

Very suddenly, Bridge is not seeing the external USB connected driver I use to store recent photos. I read a similar message here and the writer was told to add the drive to favorites. That appeared to work for him, but I could not do that since the folder doesn't appear under Computer in the favorites section either. The drive appears in Windows Explorer. I am using Vista 32. Any suggestions?
Fran

Did you power up or connect the external drive after Bridge had been started? I've observed that Bridge only includes drives that were attached and active when Bridge was launched; it does not add a drive to its folders list if that drive is started after Bridge is active. With your external drive on (and appearing in explorer) try exiting and relauching Bridge.

IMovie does not see Aperture / iTunes library after hard drive restore

Hi all,
I recently exchanged the 320GB drive in my MacBook for a 500GB drive. I installed the 500GB drive and restored everything from my time machine backup. This went flawlessly and the MacBook works great, except for two issues:
1st: It did not read NTFS volumes anymore, I had to reinstall NTFS-3G - problem fixed.
2nd: I do not see my Aperture and iTunes libraries in iMovie '09 anymore. This worked great before.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Or what the problem could be?
Many thanks,
Michael

read about that problem frequently.. never got an answer, if the following usual advice fixes the problem:
• check permissions with Disk Utility
• check read/write rights of specific Folder AND files inside via Finder..

Maverick does not see External Harddrive

I had a Seagate external usb3 harddrive connected. I was working on a video file when suddenly I got a message in the upper right hand corner saying that the external harddrive was incorrectly disconnected or dismounted. OK. So, I unplug and then plug the ext. HD back into the usb3 port. To make the story short, the hd light comes on, I can hear the disk spinning. But it does not appear in the Finder or desktop. The only sign on the Mac is by going to the "About This Mac" and to the System Report which lists hardware and software. Clicking on the USB line, it shows the external HD plugged into one of the usb 3 ports. The disk info indicates its ID and other data and how much energy it is consuming (it appears it is only using 96 mA from an available 500 mA). So, it appears that the Mac sees it and can read it and has power enough to run it.
I then removed the first ext. HD and inserted another Seagate external usb3 harddrive - the Mac doesn't see it either except in the System report. The external HDs do not show up in the Disk Utility app. The only conclusion is that the harddrives are probably OK but the Mac won't mount them anymore. Most people with unmountable ext. HDs usually see them in the disk utility (greyed out).
Any ideas.

Update - I have three Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex external harddrives. The two that I have connected to my Macbook Pro no longer can be read. I took the two and connected to another MacBook Pro but it would not read the drivers either. I took my third drive which I have not connected to my Macbook Pro for several weeks and connected to the other Macbook Pro and it reads it fine.
I downloaded drivers from Seagate but it didn't help. I started my computer in safe mode, HD didn't work. I have another drive containing a duplicate of my internal HD (using Superduper) and booted with the backup drive. It would not open the two drives. I'm taking the HD to a friend who has a G5 using an early Mac OS, 6.0. These two drives contain my video files and I need to retrieve the files.
Conclusion: The Maverick on my computer has corrupted the first two Seagate drives.

My time capsule does not see external hard drive

I just got a new time capsule and am hoping to use it as a wireless bridge and NAS.
I've got it set up as a bridge and that seems to be working correctly, but when I plug my external hard drive into the time capsule, I can't see that external drive show up anywhere.
Has anybody else run into this issue?
The hard drive is a WD Elements 3 TB USB 2.0 Desktop External Hard Drive - WDBAAU0030HBK-NESN.

I can't see that external drive show up anywhere.
If the drive is formatted correctly and communicating with the Time Capsule, then it will be displayed when you open AirPort Utility, click on the Time Capsule icon, click Edit, and then click the Disks tab at the top of the next window. Example:
Remember that since this drive is a "network" drive, it will not be displayed on the desktop until you manually mount the drive.

845E Max-L does not see 5 1/4 in. floppy drive

My first 845E Max-L mb had no problems with my Teac FD-505 combo (3 1/2 in. + 5 1/4 in.) floppy drive. I was able to boot to DOS on the 3 1/2 in. drive and access the 5 1/4 in. drive normally. However, the first board developed a serious problem and was replaced by the vendor.
The new board is unable to view the 5 1/4 in. drive when booted to DOS on the 3 1/2 in. drive. Both drives are correctly configured in the BIOS and both are visible on the CMOS summary page.
When I boot into any O/S, both drives are visible in My Computer and both are accessible. However, if the PC is put into S3 standby (suspend-to-RAM) and then resumed, the 5 1/4 in. drive can no longer be accessed and Windows reports an I/O error.
I removed the Teac combo drive, installed an individual 5 1/4 in. drive, configured it in the BIOS and it was duly identified on the CMOS screen. With a system disk in the drive, the system was booted. It went through a floppy seek, the floppy drive access light turned on, and then the floppy was ignored as the boot continued off the hard drive.
I tried downgrading the MSI BIOS from ver. 5.7 to ver. 5.5, but that didn't eliminate the problem. (The BIOS was, of course, reset using the JBAT1 jumper.) I tried different floppy cables, to no avail.
The Teac combo floppy and the single 5 1/4 in. drive work normally on another non-MSI mb.
How can I get the 5 1/4 in. drive to work correctly and, once in Windows, after resuming from standby? Is use of 5 1/4 in. drives a known problem with this mb? If not, could the problem be due to a bad fd controller?

Hi, Assaf.
Thanks for your response.
FOA, I no longer have the first board, so I don't know its PCB revision.
As for the new board, how do I see its PCB revision? Is it on the board somewhere? If so, where?
regards, Andy

System preferences -Sound does not see external USB speakers

The computer internal speakers are working OK but the problems come when I try to use external USB speakers. The previous volume problem of the imnternal speakers resolved itself.
I have now purchased a new USB set of speakers (BOSE Companion 20) but now they will only work through the "headphone" slot at the rear of my Imac and then only thru one speaker.(right)
I have reset the PRAM - anyway I followed all the instructions and it was not solved.
In "Sounds" in system preferences the Imac cannot see the USB speakers - it only recognises the internal speakers for output.
I think until "sounds" recognises the USB Speakers I will not get both speakers working.
I insert the USB speaker wiring pin in the Headphones slot at the back of the Imac and as mentioned sound only comes thru the right USB speaker -nothing works when I put the pin in the speakers slot alongside the Headphones slot.
Any help apprecaited

HP Pavilion dv5-1108ax, Windows Vista 32-bit: BIOS Boot Order does not see external eSATA HDD

I am trying to run some Linux OS (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora) from my external USB 2.0/eSATA HDD on my laptop. I can boot from a USB connection but not from an eSATA connection. Is there any chance of updating the BIOS to support booting from eSATA? Is there something I am missing in the BIOS setup menu?

No the eSata port is not bootable.

MBP Does Not Recognize External USB Devices

MBP does not "see" external USB devices (such as Garmin Nuvi GPS) or any thumb drive. No external USB devices show up in Finder nor does Disk Utility see them. No cable issues. Have tried restarting several times, but to no avail. This MBP used to recognize these USB devices, but no longer do so.
I have seen this question posed several times in forum, but no suitable answer. Don't know if it is H/W or S/W problem.

Hi Terry Temple
Is there at least any power going to the USB ports? ( as in if for example you plug in a USB light, will it switch on? )
If there is power in the USB ports it might be a software problem.
Try resetting the SMC see link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411
also try re-set the PRAM see link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
However if you do not have any power at all it probably is a hardware problem.
Is it still under warranty?
Regards,
Andrew

Toshiba Store.e Canvio 1TB not showing up on Macbook Pro Retina

Hello,
I'm having trouble with my external hard rive, it's a Toshiba Store.e Canvio 1TB, HDTC610EW3B1.
It has been working fine on my old Macbook running Mavericks but now on my new one, a retina Macbook Pro running on Yosemite, it won't show up anywhere.
I have checked with disk utility and it's not showing up, also not showing up on the USB in system preferences.
As I said, it works fine on Mavericks
Any ideas on what's happening here, please?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Don't have either of them to try.
I have spent two hours with Apple technicians and so far nothing we've tried has worked. I now have to speak to a senior Apple technician and see what they say.
A WD My Passport works well but this Toshiba won't work on Macbook Pro Retina with Yosemite...a bit annoying

Itunes store does not see my account balence

I have a balence in my account from a gift card but Itunes does not see it? This has never happened.

First, make sure you're logged into the iTunes Store using the account ID and password you set up, or used, when you redeemed your card/gift. If you are, try signing out of the account and back in.
If you're sure you are using the correct account and that you're signing in to the iTunes Store, and signing out and back in doesn't help, go to the Purchase History and review your purchases to make sure that you should indeed have a balance left. iTunes doesn't always refresh the balance it shows, so it's possible you spent the money and it just wasn't being reflected in the display. This display error can usually be corrected by logging out of the iTunes Store and then back in.
If you confirm that you should have balance left but the iTunes Store isn't showing it correctly, send a message to the iTunes Store customer service department through the form you'll find by selecting the most applicable section of their Support page and explain the problem to them.
Good luck.
