Trouble with 4TB HD and 24-inch Early 2008 iMac
I replaced the 320GB drive with a Seagate 4TB drive and proceded to use the machine. All sorts of weird things started happening such as Apps not launching at random, machine response slowed down, etc. so I decided to put the 320GB drive back in and use the 4TB as an external in a USB enclosure. When I plug in the 4TB drive now it comes up and says it's unreadable. Check partition type and it shows MBR even though I've partitioned with GUID, installed an OS and have been booting from this drive for a month now. If I put the 4TB drive back into the iMac it reads it fine and shows proper partitioning, etc. So why can't it read it when plugged in via USB with absolutely NO modifications to the drive? Anyone have any ideas as I'm completely stumped.
P.S. - I don't want to re-partition the 4TB drive as it's half full of tons of media.
I have this exact same problem...I replaced a failing hard drive and after I put things back together about a day later the screen flickers quite often.
If I apply pressure to a certain area on the top of the screen it will stay on for a while and / or flicker like mad. It's very frustrating because you think it's fixed and you go to sit down and it's back to flickering or black.
Everything else is fine, the flickering does not cause the computer to freeze.
I'm thinking it must be something I over looked when putting the case back together but I can't quite figure out what it could be...any suggestions?
I replaced the hard drive to breathe new life in to this iMac that I use as a television / video player in my bedroom.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks for your time.

Trouble With Opening InDesign and now Photoshop and Illustrator
First off I apologize if this isn't in the correct section. I couldn't find a section specific to my problem since it involves multiple aspects of Adobe products. I was having trouble with InDesign, it kept crashing. So I followed all of the advice I could find on the forums about deleting the preferences and cache information in the Library folder, and that didn't seem to make a difference. So then I thought maybe it needed an update, so I logged into Adobe Application Manager and sure enough, it did. So I clicked on "download" and it stalled there too. Then the manager became unresponsive. I couldn't cancel the update or log out or anything. So then I saw in the forum someone suggested the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool if your manager becomes unresponsive. I ran that and then shut my computer off. When I turned it back on, InDesign started working BUT my Photoshop is completely gone from my system (I never messed with it in the first place since I wasn't having any trouble with it.) And the when I tried to click on Illustrator it said "Do you want to begin your trial?" Huh?
I have had a subscription since 2012, why on earth would it suddenly think that I no longer should have access to these programs? If I log on to my Adobe account it shows my subscription and that it's up to date (last payment was April 5, 2015). The versions I was using were the CS versions that I had downloaded directly from Adobe and when I used to have any trouble or when I got a different computer I could just log into my account and then redownload them. They are no longer showing under my products, so I can't figure out what on earth is going on. The website has changed since the last time I downloaded them, so that partly could be me, but I thought they would at least be showing up under products. I contacted Adobe support and the first person I talked to on chat said "this is clearly a technical issue I am transferring you to someone better suited for this," but that's all he said. And I haven't heard from anyone since so I thought I'd make a topic and see if anyone else out there has had a similar problem.The versions I am using are the CS6 versions.*

I rented Trouble with the Curve and haven't it yet and I when I went to watch the movie it tells me the file can not be found - please help
Yes, thank you. My apologies, I was typing one handed and did not add that.
Anyway, I have tried deleting the cache, deleting my pics and then re-syncing, etc. and nothing is working This is very frustrating, as I had no problems up until about 2 weeks ago, and now all of a sudden, I have this issue......UGH! -
Having trouble with wav files and sample rates
Hi ,I am having trouble with wav files and sample rates .I have been sent multiple projects on wav as the main instrumental ; I wish to record in 48.000kHz .Now comes the problem.When I try to change the project to 48k It seems to pitch up the track.I can't have them send the logic/project file as most have outboard synths,different plug ins etc.This particular case the producer has recorded the synth task in 41.000 kHz .My successful outcome would be to be able t create a project file in 48 kHz .And NOT pitch up whne I add the instrumenta wav file .Any help would be gratefully recieved,this is my first post so any mistakes I may have made go easy
You'll have to convert the actual synth audio file file that the producer gave you to 48kHz. You can do this in the audio Bin in Logic.

I'm having trouble with iTunes synching and accessing the iTunes store.
I'm having trouble with iTunes synching and accessing the iTunes store. When synching, the process tops at the back up stage, freezes and I can't close the iTunes window, need to ctrl alt del. When trying to access the store, the progress bar stops halfway. I've googled heaps and tried most of the standard answers - unistall, reinstall, etc, now looking for some help please.
This has only started a few weeks back, after working smoothly for the 2 years of owning the iPhone 3gs.
Any suggestions will be appreciated, it's getting realy frustrating.
Cheers for now,

this worked perfectly for me, with no loss of library! BUT was warned about uninstalling things in the order listed...FYI. -
Trouble with internal keyboard and touchpad
Hi,
Yesterday I just out of nowhere started having some trouble with my keyboard and touchpad on my MacBook Air.
The problem displayed itself on various ways. One thing was that I couldn't press regulary with the touchpad. When I was pressing one time, it acted like a pressed with two fingers. When I tried to type in my password on the administrator page, some of the keys didn't work at all and some started to act weird. For example when I was pressing the letter B, the "bar" which displayes where you are in the text (don't know the word in English) went backwards, and when I pressed the letter F it went forward. This seemes so weird and also gives me a hope that it might be some setting failure though B stands for backwards and F stands for forward.
I could log in to the guestpage where I tried to write in "notes". In notes, no letters at all was working, only numbers. When I tried to shut the computer down from the apple symbol I was asked to write administrator name and password. When I tried to mark the name to write it, there wasn't a "bar" but a cross, but on the other hand did it work to write in the password field. But of course not B and F..
Usualy I'd just press the on/off botton until the computer lockdown, unfortunately the botton doesn't work. So the only thing I could do was to let the battery die and hope that it would start when I recharged it and pressed start, this didn't go as well as I hoped, so now I'm stuck with a dead macbook air.
Any ideas of what could be the problem or/and any solutions what might do the trick?
Extremly greatful for any answersYes you need to use a wired keyboard.

Trouble with LaCie disk and time machine
HI everyone,
I've been having trouble with using time machine to back-up to my 1 TB LaCie drive (purchased 5/12, unfornuately I was dumb and didn't register the drive and no longer have the box with the serial number and there is no serial number on my drive. The only problem I had up until the end of August was that every so often the LaCie drive (using my FW 800 port) would unmount after waking up from sleep.
The end of August the drive unmounted for no reason while I was on the computer doing a task. Could not get the LaCie drive remounted (rebooting, etc. etc.) To make a long story short, ended up calling apple care who took me through resetting my SMC and PRAM to no avail. Was booted to higher level of support who walked me through trying to repair my drive using the disk utiltiy. When that didn't work, she walked me through erasing and reformatting the LaCie drive and starting a new time machine back-up. Every thing ok until about ten days ago.
Last week, when I woke my iMac up from sleep, I got an error saying that the disk was not ejected properly and I could not mount the drive. Restarting did nothing, the disk did not mount. Shutting down and rebooting seemed to solve the problem and the disk was mounted. Every so often I've had the problem with the disk unmounting after waking up from sleep before. So, I changed my energy sleep preferences. At the end of the day when I am done, I'd unmount the LaCie drive before putting the Mac to sleep using the apple menu.
Today I came in to start my day, plugged the drive in and it would not mount. Tried rebooting nothing. Went into the disk utility, at first the LaCie drive passed the disk verify (6:26:25 and 6:26:38). Then I went into repair disk on the indented drive at 6:27:13, I wasn't sure what it is was doing, thinking that it had hung, I stopped the repair at 6:27:24. Exited disk utility, and the LaCie drive mounted. But I was getting a read only error when I tried to back-up using time machine. So, I went back into disk utility at 6:27:35, when I verified the disk (indented disk), I got an error saying the disk need to be repaired. After several minutes the disk could not be repaired. So, I erased and reformatted the drive. Ran a time machine back-up and it seemed to back-up everything on my hard drive. Just ran another verify disk and it passed.
Is the drive failing? Have some other back-ups of my documents, my address book, iCal and am going to make a backup of some of my pref files and important e-mail files and am going to do some more back-ups after I am done.
Have reached out to the women at apple care whom I talked to last August, but don't expect to hear back from her for at least 24 hours.
Here is my disk utility log

2013-11-07 10:39:32 -0500:I just got a call back from the upper level support person at apple care who had been advising me on my trouble with time machine and my LaCie 1 TB FWD. I had sent her much of the same verbiage as I posted here. As some of you have probably figured out, the verdict is that the drive is probably failing. She says this because I have had to do two erase and reformats. She thought that the intermitant problem that I have had with the drive unmounting when my iMac wakes from sleep could be related to the drive failing.
In the meantime I have a secondary back-up (not using time machine) and the LaCie 1 TB FWD is working for the moment.
Thanks to all who read all my verbiage.
And in the meantime, I've learned something. I marked this question as solved. But I'm open to other things to try.

TS3999 Help! Trouble with my calendar and icloud.
I am having trouble with my calendar and icloud.
Customers send me meeting invites and I can accept them no problem. But if they subsequently change the date or time I get an error message:
Access to “appointment name” in “Home” in account “iCloud” is not permitted.
The server responded:
“403”
to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation
sometimes the time changes in my calendar, sometimes it doesn't, and my customers keep getting messages back from icloud 'accepting' the original date, not the changed date!!
It is driving me an my clients crazy! any help would be appreciated.I had a problem specific to the Calendar on web-based Firefox (PC) Was asked for a separate sign-in I'd never seen before which didn't work. I resolved this by signing out, signing in again.

Would it be worthwhile to put in a larger hard drive and boost the memory on our early 2008 iMac? We realize it is on borrowed time but we would like to squeeze a little more time out of it.
Problem description:
This iMac is running awfully slow, and freezes up often

Can a MacBook Pro 15-inch Early 2008
I currently have a MacBook Pro 15 inch, Early 2008
Software: Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
I want to know if my laptop if capable of upgrading it's memory to 8GB? It currently has 2 GB but in order for a certain software program to run, it's requiring a laptop device with 8 GB, so I'm trying to decide if this laptop is capable of doing such or if I need to purchase a newer laptop.It can run 6GB. If the computer has 8GB installed and more than 4GB is in use at any given time, it'll slow down so much that it becomes unusable.

IMac 20-inch Early 2008 - Can't Print to Tape
Hi everyone,
I'm using an early 2008 iMac 20-inch model, and I'm having issues with the Firewire 400 port. I have tried using Windows Movie Maker and Sony Vegas 8 Pro and both can't export my clips to my Sony PD-150 camera. All I get is a black screen, no video and sound. Both applications was able to control the camera to pre-roll the DV tape for transfer, but nothing is shown on both camera and computer. It just rolls on and on with nothing transferred.
I have changed my firewire cable twice, checked my PD-150 camera settings and it is set correctly, as my other DELL computer was able to export successfully.
Anyone has any idea how to get the iMac to export the video thru the firewire in a Windows XP SP3?
Info on what i have done:
- Installed all bootcamp drivers from iMac 10.5 disc.
- Installed all available patches for Windows XP SP3.
- Installed Dot Net 3.5 SP1 framework.
Sincerely,
Joe

I'm still stuck with trying to solve this. Any help is appreciated.
I have purchased a Sonnet 800-to-400 firewire adapter, and it still doesn't work.

Joe
