TS2200 Cannot find a destination volume

I am trying to erase and reinstall Snow Leopard on an old MacBook. I installed a new HD 2 years ago and used the computer problem free. I first tried to erase the disk, but I was getting an input/output error.
I found on this site that it might take some time for the disk to appear in the "Select a Destination" window. Mac OS X 10.5: Installer destination window does not show drives - Apple Support
However to check the status, I went to Terminal as recommended in the article. In Terminal, I enter "ps auxc | grep fsck" and it returns with "command not found"
Can anyone tell me why the command is not found and if there is a different command that I could use? Any other advice?
Thanks

When I held CMD+s during bootup, the Mac ejected the CD-ROM. This was the disk that I was using.
The Mac then displayed the flashing folder with the "?" on it. So I inserted my Snow Leopard installation disk. I still had the same problem in Disk Utility. I turned off the machine and held down the CMD+s. I went into single user mode and entered the code. When I did that, it gave me the message "The volume Mac OS X Install DVD appears to be OK."
I then went to Disc Utility and looked at a partition of the disk. It is a 500 GB disk, but it let me create 1 partition at 250 GB. I then went to the Select Destination Window, and the partition that I had created, named "Untitled" was there. But this is only for 250 GB and the HD is 500 Gb. Is there a part of the disc that is not being recognized? I am currently installing the Snow Leopard on the partition.

Hi,
I have a grey screen and grey rotating wheel startup probs. I have tried repairing with the disk utility, resetting PRAM, booting in safe mode (which gave a subset of the errors that 'disk repair' did- namely- 'invalid sibling link,invalid record count, invalid node structure, invalid key length) and finally trying to get to archive&install the o/s, but it cannot find the destination volume. Is an erase the only option? PS I have backed up most files individually, but my daughter did not back up any from her user account. Any help would be appreciated. J

Error code 3150 - Cannot find output destination. Need help to resolve

I just installed a new router running DHCP and now I'm unable to reach my printer from all computers. The error code says "Cannot find output destination. Check the printer power connection, make sure the printer is switched on, and then try again.: -3150
The printer is obviously powered on and connected to the LAN. There is an apparent IP address problem, however, I can ping the IP that seems to be loaded in the printer.
I'm using Mac computers and I seem to have recurring IP issues with this printer.
Thanks for any help.

i am having the same issue as well.

Cannot find "Midi Destination" drop menu in External Instrument control window...

I'm using Logic X Pro, and am attempting to use Sylenth as a VST. In order to do so, I watched this video tutorial...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I-mNj-TLGM at minute mark 5:39, the External Instrument control window is displayed, and a drop down menu item titled "Midi Destination" is shown. I am not seeing that on my Logic.
Can anyone please speak to this? Can you see this option in your window?
Thanks so much.

Cannot find destination drive - Powerbook G4, Tiger

Hello... oddball problem here I think.
My powerbook is about 4 years old now. Was running fine on Sunday, Monday when I tried to start it up I got the "broken folder" icon. i.e. Kernel Panic as far as I can tell.
I've:
-Reset PRAM
-did extended hardware test (no issues)
-repaired and verified the disk (via TDM)
-did a 7pass '0 out' erase of OS partiton (via TDM)
-did a quick erase and rename of OS partition (via TDM)
-repaired and verified the disk (again) (via TDM)
I can access the HD via firewire in TDM, can transfer data off it no problem.When trying to use Disk Utility from the OS startup disk, it freezes up. When trying to reinstall the OS it cannot find a destination disk..
so.. Is the HD dead? or am I missing something?

Well, maybe you did have a KP which may be hardware related. I take it the gray disc is the one that came with the computer originally? I am not that familiar with your model computer but the disc probably had a hardware test utility on it that can be accessed by holding down the D key while booting. Check the hardware.
There's a list of other things that can be tried such as resetting PRAM (can't see how that would necessarily help here, but it can't hurt) and PMU.
In one sentence you said it freezes on booting, but then you also said it froze while using disk utility which suggests it did indeed boot to the disc, so I'm a bit unclear as to the exact status.

EExactly what settings are you using. Some go to iTunes.

After migrating to a new MBP, when saving or opening documents, I sometimes (but not always) get a warning such as: "Word cannot save this document due to a naming or permissions error on the destination volume." Can someone please explain?

I recently migrated from a MBP with OS 10.6 to a MCB with OS 10.8. Some glitches are popping up. Here's the one on my mind at the moment:
When saving or opening documents, I get a warning such as: "Word cannot save this document due to a naming or permissions error on the destination volume." Can someone please explain?

Since this is isolated to a single file, try exporting it to Interchange Format (.inx), then open and save the resulting file as a new InDesign file.
Since the problem occurs during export, that may not be possible. Another option to try would be to copy all elements, page by page, and "paste in place" into a new document the same size. If you used layers, be sure to enable "paste remembers layers" in the layers panel menu.
This kind of problem is often indicative of an underlying font issue. You said there are only three fonts, and you should verify that in Type > Find Font... Try replacing, at least temporarily the fonts in use with something else that you know to be reliable from other documents. You might want to do this before the other steps.

Iphoto error cannot find volume

I am getting this error when importing from my camera. I do have the setting selected in iphoto to automatically copy to library on import. I suspect the problem might be coming from my camera that has rolled over 10,000 pics, so now the file number seems to be starting at 1 again. So on import it says cannot find volume but I wonder if it is getting confused bc the file already exists? I tried renaming the pics before importing, and that seems to work, but, now the old pics that had that file name say cannot find volume. Anyone experienced this? Now question on trying to recover. When I recover from time machine, I am clicking iphoto and recover but it doens't seem to change. Do i have to select the library instead? Also another question. The date I want to recover from I have since done some books, calendars, etc under the 'keepsakes' list. How can I copy those so I can get them back after recover?
Many thanks.

This sometimes occurs if you’re importing a file into iPhoto and there’s already a file there with the same name. Digital cameras can produce many, many files with the same name over their lifetime, so it’s not uncommon to have several files called IMG_00543.JPG, for instance. Now you want to import one also called this.
What happens is that iPhoto compares the two files to check for duplicates. However, if iPhoto cannot find the file already in the database for comparison, then you get this message. It suggests that your database is damaged because iPhoto has lost track of this (or these) similarly named files.
A simple test is to rename the file you are importing - just add a character - IMG_00543a.JPG for instance. You've already done this test and it proves the hypothesis.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Lost pictures---cannot find volume

I recently installed Leopard on my IMAC. Did the archive and erase method. More recently I installed an update from Photoshop CS2 to CS4. Now my wife gets "cannot find volume PICTURES" error message and has lost all her pictures. I lost all pictures except those that had been opened or worked up in PS.
Under Finder, left side, the Picture volume seems to be not connected, but if I go to the hard drive Icon, I can find a pictures folder containing some recent additions to the folder. So it seems to be there, but it is not in the finder below Documents.
On my login Pictures works, but most of my photos are gone. Help!
Anybody got hints on how to find the pictures, and re-connect the pictures volume?

Did the archive and erase method.
NO you didn’t. You did either an +Erase and Install+ or an +Archive and Install+. There is no “archive and erase method”.
Now my wife gets "cannot find volume PICTURES"
The Mac is looking for a Volume called Pictures - not a folder, a Volume. A Volume is a disk, a partition of a disk or whatever.
but if I go to the hard drive Icon, I can find a pictures folder containing some recent additions to the folder.
This is the Pictures folder on your on your Start Up Volume.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The hard drive is not formatted, and it must be formatted in "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" in order to install OS X.
Close the OS X installer, and go to Utilities menu (on the menu bar) > Disk Utility. Then, format your hard drive in "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" as Format > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html Finally, close Disk Utility and install OS X

Appleworks Cannot find volume

I have an i book (Indigo colour). MAC OS X V10.2.4. and Appleworks 6.0.4. I have not been able to either 'save' or 'save as' a new document in Appleworks since yesterday. It brings up the notice 'cannot find the volume' alongside the Appleworks icon. Hence it won't save any documents. I have been saving successfully in Appleworks for some time. I did try to load a free CD from a magazine yesterday, and it was anti virus scanned, but then I binned it. Would that have affected my system? Anyway, can anyone solve my problem please?

The first thing to try is deleting the AppleWorks preferences. See my user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, for details.

No, I already tried looking at that. The file that recovered was not in the trash, it appeared in my documents folder. I opened it up and inside was an iText Express document with coding. Then inside of there, was and then and this "SoftwareMap" document contained a bunch of coding and symbols and words.
