WD My Book Pro external hard drive button manager for 10.5

For owners of the Western Digital My Book series of external hard drives.
As you may know, the old WD Button Manager software is not compatible with 10.5. However, it seems that neither is the official new software the WD Drive Manager!
Anyway, I trawled around the internet and came across a version of the Button Manager software with instructions on how to make it work with 10.5 - instructions are in German and English.
http://www.divshare.com/download/4474545-424
My version of the instructions:
Mount the included disk image
Run the patch script to generate a package on your Desktop
Unmount the disk image
Run the package on your Desktop and do not reboot
Enter the required command in Terminal
Add the StartUpItem manually
Reboot
Works a treat
Makes me wonder why Western Digital are incapable of writing software that works as advertised.
Hopefully this will help somebody.

I can't say about 10.5, as I am on 10.5.2, but my 2 drives work as you say they should. They power down when my Mac powers down, and the lights on the front operate as they should. They show me the approximate used space when idle, and the lights flicker up and down when the drives are accessed.
I suggest that you make sure to update your drive's firmware to the latest, and ensure (in Profiler) that the version actually updates. Then remove all traces of the WD software, and reinstall the latest version.
I say to verify the firmware version, as mine appeared to update, but did not, despite repeated attempts. I got a 9-pin to 6-pin cable and connected the drive to the FW800 port, then repeated, and it worked.
I should note that I do have one issue: I cannot daisy-chain my 2 WD drives. They will only work properly when connected each to their own port - one to the FW400, and the other to the FW800. I cannot daisy-chain other devices off them either, such as a video camera, or a FW memory card reader (I have not tried a hub).
Edit: Here's a story on the latest updates:

Which hard drives are compatible with the Ultrabase Series 3?

Hello,
I recently purchases a ThinkPad X220 Laptop. I'm looking at picking up an Ultrabase Series 3 dock, but I'm a bit confused about which hard drives can fit into the dock. Can any 2.5" SATA drive work? Does the dock come with an adapter for the drive to fit in the bay?
Thank you for your help.

Sorry I pushed the wrong button by mistake.

MacBook hard drive is full again. Replaced original hard drive with a Samsung SSD 840 Pro Series 256GB hard drive about 18 mo. ago, but my MacBook is now already saying that my hard drive is full again. 13in. Alum. Late 2008 MacBook

My MacBook hard drive is full again. I have a 13in. Aluminum, Late 2008 MacBook, and about 18 months ago (in October 2013), I replaced the original hard drive with a Samsung SSD 840 Pro Series 256GB hard drive. However, my MacBook is now already saying that my hard drive is full again. When I check "System Information," under "Storage," it states the following: Audio 52.02 GB; Movies 33.68GB; Photos 43.13GB; Apps 14.76 GB; Backups 174.4 MB; and Other 96.39GB.
Also, at home, I have an Apple Time Capsule 4th Generation 2TB that I use as my wireless router, and I also use it for automatic backup via Time Machine. And when I first purchased Time Capsule, the first time I connected Time Capsule, Time Machine asked if I would like to use it to back up my files, and I clicked, "Use as Backup Disk." And that's really all I've ever done with Time Capsule.
In addition, I also have a LaCie Porsche Design P'9223 1TB external hard drive. I have copied my MacBook's hard drive onto my LaCie external hard drive.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Obviously the Audio, Movies, Photos, and Apps are taking up a lot of space... Any suggestions re: what I can do with Audio, Movies, Photos, and Apps? And what about the Other? Other is taking up 96.39 GB. What is Other, and what can I do about it?
And what about partitioning my hard drive... Is that something I should do? Should I partition, or configure, my MacBook's internal hard drive differently? And should I partition, or configure, my external hard drive? And if I need to partition, or configure, my MacBook's internal hard drive differently, how do I setup Time Machine to backup per any such changes? Same thing for my external hard drive?

Thank you for your help.

Partitioning makes no sense. You have a drawer full of stuff. Split it into two smaller drawers and you have two smaller drawers full of stuff.
Decide what you can store on external storage - your iPhoto/Aperture/Lightroom libraries can all be stored on externals, as can your iTunes Libraries and so on. Do you need to carry 30 gigs of movies with you all the time? You can get portable drives the size of an iPhone these days.

I have purchased itunes tv series, movies and music and have transferred them onto an external hard drive and tried to play them on my tv on a media hub. The file will not load. Is there some form of blocking by itunes or another p[roblem and how do I fix it?

You can't fix it. iTunes bought content is DRM protected. so it can only be played on authorized devices. i.e devices associated with the apple Id used to purchase the content. Its copyright protection that the rights owners demand.
Circumventing it, is illegal in most countries, and as such cannot be discussed here. If you want to play the content you'll need to connect your computer directly to your TV, or use some other device you can authorize for iTunes content such as an iPad, iPhone , iPod touch or Apple Tv.

UCS C series maximum hard drive size

Looking for info on the maximum hard drive size support on teh UCS C series. I have a C200M2 that I added a 4TB drive, I have updated the server to the latest firmware and BIOS however the server shows the drive size is 2TB.

Hi! and welcome to the community mate!
Here is the table that shows the supported disk's PID for the C200 server:
http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/products/collateral/servers-unified-computing/ucs-c-series-rack-servers/c200m2_sff_specsheet.pdf
If you successfully installed ONE HDD of 4GB and made it work, you were lucky cause I don't see any disk with that size, I have not even seen a disk of that size for UCS yet.
I am wondering if perhaps you installed 4 disks of 1TB and configured them in RAID 1 which would explain the reason for the size to go down to half of the capacity of the array as RAID 1 is a mirror.
Let me know if I misunderstood you.

LaCie d2 thunderbolt series hard drive reliability

I am considering purchasing a LaCie d2 Thunderbolt series hard drive for my Time Machine backups for our household. We have two MBPs, one is running OS X Yosemite, the other is running OS X Mavericks.
I have read a few older reviews noting that the LaCie drive keeps dismounting during Time Machine backups.
Has this continued to be a problem?

Ryan,
Check drive volume name and also the Computer name. Apple released a tech note recommending that both be limited to only the characters A-Za-z0-9 (no dashes, hyphens, or other special characters.
If you can, send the Apple System Profiler report to me at the addres in my profile. Imay be able to see something there. I have helped another user with similar problems, but with a LaCie USB drive. He got things working by repeating the recommended steps, and double checking everything.
As others have rported, this should work, so there may be something else preventing proper operation.
If the drive is usable from Finder, but Time Machine cannot use it, there is something related in how Time Machine is viewing the drive.

LX800 Series - How To Open Case to Change Hard Drive?

Hi Everyone,
Is there anyone out there that can advise me on the best method for Opening My LX series AIO case , so that I can put a new hard drive in it..
- I have a good image bacup and the Skills to swap the hard drive , I just have no idea on how to open the case.
Sadly , I have searched pretty much everywhere but cannot find a procedure.. and of course its not in the Toshiba manual that I have access to , I am told there are technical manuals but not available to "end users" like me.
I have found instructions for another model on these foroums , but its different as the case is very different , and uses clips.
Would be VERY grateful for any help as I do not want to mess up my case as its only just out of warranty with a "clicking" hard drive that wil not boot.
Thanks in advance..
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ok , so replaced the hard disk today in my LX800 Series AIO - here is the procedure to open the case - This procedure is quite different from the others (PX Model) I have seen posted at these forums.
1) Lay your AIO flat down on a cloth or blanket.
2) Remove the FIVE main Black screws from the rear Perimeter of the case.
3) Remove the Screw that sits just above the Bar Code label and then remove the DVD/Bluray Drive , by giving it a firm pull.
4) Remove the hidden (Keyboard/Mouse) USB adaptor that sits behind the door at the bottom left had portion of the back of the machine.
5) Once the above USB is removed it reveals a small screw under it - remove this screw.
6) Open the memory access door , there is a small screw revealed - remove this.
7) Remove the Rubber grommet that sits inset into each of the legs.
8) Remove the screws that removing the above grommet reveals.
The back of the case is now held in place by clips around the whole Perimeter. Be very careful and patient and gently pry the two half's of the case apart. I did not have to use a plastic pry tool , as once it go started they just seems to "pop" off one by one, as I worked around. Its not that hard to do if you go easy..
Then you can now see the hard disk , in a silver shield. Quite easy (but a bit fiddly) to replace.
I replaced mine with a direct replacement 1TB hard disk that was a 3.25" but was only 20MM thick , as opposed to the more normal 25mm one. I am not 100% sure that a 25mm one would fit , but I think it may with a bit of fiddling around. But I was very aware of possible heat issues , so went for a direct replacement with the exact same model as Tosh has used.
That's it really , I gave the fan and heat sink a good blow out with Dust off , but after 18 months use they were not to badly clogged..
Please feel free to ask any questions , will gladly help if I can - which is a great deal more than Toshiba were willing to do lol. Will not be buying any of their products in future , as I do expect a modicum of support for basic things like case opening.

Hi my laptop is m6-1105dx, and the hard drive cable does not work now. I tried to find it online but I could hardly find anything. As I heard, it seems the m6-1000 series are using the same cable. Is that true?

Hi there,
Here are the spare part numbers of both:

Hard Drive Hardware Kit (includes hard drive bracket, hard drive connector cable, and screws)
686907-001
Envy m6-1105dx notebook

Hard drive mounting kit for DV7T series laptop

I recently bought a HP DV7T series laptop from HP. It has a 2nd hard drive bay so I can increase my storage by adding a 2nd hard drive. The trouble I am having is actually getting the part needed to mount the drive. I need the 2 mounting rails and the e-sata cable which is in the kit part number 517639-001. This kit includes the mounting rails, e-SATA interface cable, and mounting screws. The trouble is HP parts says that the product is not available, but tech support says they can get it for me for $400!?! That's a 3rd of the price of the laptop and it is only for 2 rails, some screws, and a cable. Does anyone know where I can get this part? Or contact information for someone at HP that could help with this. Parts and tech support did not think the $400 price tag for that was overkill. I tried asking for a manager, but all the rep would do was put me on hold and "relay" answers. Final word was I need to contact a 3rd party. This is a new laptop, less than a week old; I find it hard to believe that HP does not have the part.

You could try Amazon, eBay, CraigsList, etc. The usual warnings apply: Check the reseller ratings, don't deal with anyone that does not offer a return policy (don't shop with anyone whose post says "All sales are final"), and pay only with a credit card so that you can reverse charges in worst case scenario.

How do I organize photos in DVD size folders, by topic, by date, etc? I plan to set up a new archive on an external hard drive (1 TB) for about 7500 photos. Some from a series of XP files, the rest from iPhoto. I use iPhoto11 on Lion with a 2011 MacBoo

I need to know several answers, and I don't feel I can do it without the basic folder system. Also, I understand burning folders instead of individual photos or albums gives you more space on a DVD. How can I keep the captions on my photos (not events) when I print or transfer to a new folder? I have been using computers for 20+ years for photos, and have scanned some on Windows and transferred some but not all that I wish to archive in new compositions, albums, whatever that are not all on iPhoto. i also am concerned about overflowing my capacity on MacBook Pro 2011. Tne only way I know is to copy photos from the Windows to folders on my HD, then copy and paste photos or albums or events to HD, then create a new folder and fill it to the appropriate DVD size. Is this my only option? I also thought I should download future photos to my Canon programming that comes with EOS cameras and edit and then decide which photos to save to iPhoto library and which to save only to my archival HD?

Paragraphs help the reader, just saying.
What are you actually trying to do? Why do you need "DVD size" folders if you're creatng an Archive on an external hard drive?
Also, I understand burning folders instead of individual photos or albums gives you more space on a DVD.
It makes no difference at all.
How can I keep the captions on my photos (not events) when I print or transfer to a new folder?
You can export while writing the metadata to the file in most cases.
Tne only way I know is to copy photos from the Windows to folders on my HD, then copy and paste photos or albums or events to HD, then create a new folder and fill it to the appropriate DVD size.
HD? Another HD? You use HD there in a way that makes no sense. What's the point of 'DVD size'?
I also thought I should download future photos to my Canon programming that comes with EOS cameras and edit and then decide which photos to save to iPhoto library and which to save only to my archival HD?
Does this have any relation to the previous questions? You know you can delete from iPhoto, right?
You're somewhat confused and you need to
1. Decide what exactly you want to do
2. Then go about it.
If I understand you correctly - and there's no guarantee that I do - the easiest thing is to bring all your Photos into iPhoto and do everything from there.
You can have an archive on an external disk, you can sort and select and edit with or via iPhoto

Pravilion dv7 series hard drive replaced after recovery disc fail

I tried to use the recovery portion of my hard drive when my Pavilion dv7-4173 US laptop failed to operate. After trying the recovery portion of the hard drive several times I got a error message saying the bootmgr was missing. I Tried using the Recovery disks I had made at the store I purchased the computer before taking it home and they failed. They worked up to 32% and then stopped. I took the laptop and the Recovery discs (6 discs) to another retail store's tech department. After several days I was told the Recovery Disc where no good/damaged. When I contacted the purchased store I was told I needed to bring in the laptop and recovery discs. They replaced the hard drive, saying that was the problem, but did not partition it. They decided to up graded the OS system from Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit., but did not try the Recovery Discs. Can I use the Recovery Disc they made me, if the are good, to restore the laptop back to factory fresh? I know it will place Windows 7 Home OS system back on the computer, but I'd like all the programs back that came with computer. Will I be able to upgrade the OS to Professional? I have the Windows 7 Professional disc. If my recovery disc will not work, can I use the Recovery Disc, only 2 discs as opposed to 6, that I can purchase from HP and then upgrade to Professional?
This question was solved.

Hello skip61. I want to make sure I understand. A shop replaced the hard drive for you and installed Windows 7 Profession 64-bit in the process. They also replaced your bad recovery media with a new set of Windows 7 Profession recovery discs. is this correct?
If you want the notebook to revert back to the factory defaults you will need a set of discs from HP directly. This will properly partition the hard drive and set the notebook back up with Windows 7 Home and the software that came with the notebook.
You can upgrade your version of Windows 7 at any time you'd like. This is a feature built into Windows itself. So check out this Microsoft article on how to update.
To order a set of recovery discs from HP just give them a call. The number is 1-800-474-6836 for the US/Canada. If you're outside of this area check this site to get your region's contact information.
I hope this is helpful; have a great weekend!

Solved - D Series Hard Drive Tray interchange

All,
I think I've solved the mystery of the hard drive tray interchange for at least the D10 (I don't have a D20 or D30 to compare with, but I think they're similar).
When I was taking my system apart for spring cleaning to evict all of the dust bunnies, three of the five hard drive carriers/trays/brackets broke on the way out. Bad design? I'd have to agree... however, there's an upside.
On a whim, I had my old IBM IntelliStation Z Pro (Model 6221) apart and decided to try the tray from that system in my D10... fits like a charm. The casting is slightly different in that the Lenovos are black (IBMs are blue) and the markings on the sides of the rails are different. Functionally, exactly the same.
And now, the challenge ... I've been looking for these trays for my Z Pro for a while now and haven't been able to find a sane price for these trays. IBM's CRU part number is 23P1328.
Here's the page that shows the details:
http://www-947.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/docdisplay?lndocid=MIGR-45808
For those who are thinking that there's a very similar blue tray out there that was used in the NetVistas, that tray (markings UL:T1055 23-931P(5) 2000A515) does NOT fit. The rails themselves are too thick to work in the rail spaces provided in the D10 or my 6221.
So, if anyone has a source for well-priced 23P1328s for those of us who are out of warranty, I'm all ears. I'd rather not spend a lot of money on a miscellaneous parts kit (41R5630) when I only need one part out of it.
Thanks,
--- A

Guess I broke the trays wrong since the three that I broke all snapped between the indicated pull surface and the rail spar.
Under appropriate pull tension, the curved center area didn't have the rigidity to pull the rail spars in far enough to allow the drives to disengage from the chassis (in my experience).
My only question was why there wasn't a pseudo-hot swap backplane used - turn the drives around and have them snap into the connectors on the far side of the removable door. Seems like that would have been simpler and you could do your cable runs from the SAS or SATA to a sort of patch-panel in order to make sure things were on the right controllers.
And honestly, if that's my only complaint with the D10... (and it is)... it's one hell of a machine.

Recovery Disc Failure after Hard Drive replace of a DV7 series notebook

I have a HP Pavilion dv7-4270us with Windows 7 64 bit and recently got a message on bootup stating that the SMART system of my Hard Drive has failed. I purchased a Momentus XT Hybrid drive. I purchased the Recovery discs, since I neglected to follow my own advice and didn't make a set. Replaced the Hard Drive, and started the Recovery process, after the Application disc, the system said Finished, Clicked on the button, the system shutdown. Turned the power back on, Recovery took over for a couple of minutes stating that it was copying some files, a couple of minutes later it claimed that it was finished asking me to click finished. After I did so, the system rebooted hanging on the HP logo screen with the statement in the lower left corner stating "Press ESC for the Startup Menu". My only recourse has been to power down machine. When I restart the computer I get the message "Bootmgr missing".
I have already poured through the forums and tried downloading the Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit DVD from Digital Life. As it begins the Install it states that a driver is missing, I have poured through the drivers for this computer and don't see anything for SATA, and none of the others would be needed for bootup. I have been successful in loading my Windows 7 Professional on the system, but since I don't have an extra key code for Professional lying around, it isn't helping right now.
I have also attempted to partition the new drive manually using my desktop and a device allowing me to see the drive using a USB port, but it did not go right. The good news is that the old drive is still working to a point. I can read it through the USB port, and I can back-up the drive, except for the Recovery partition. But when I put the new drive in and setup the partitions similar to the original drive, it still does not boot.
I have attempted many other things all to utter failure, I am not used to failing when it comes to computers, so be gentle.
This question was solved.

Hi:
The missing driver is due to either a bad burn or use a different brand DVD. You have to burn the ISO file at the slowest possible speed you can.
Also, double check the file size of the ISO you downloaded. Sometimes you don't get the full 3.xx GB even though the download says completed.
If you have a 4GB or larger USB flash drive you can install W7 that way.
Just follow these instructions...
Download the MS W7 USB installation tool, and read the instructions on the page for use.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
You may also need to do this mod like I did if the flash tool errors out.
Download the bootsect file form http://www.everettsporting.com/bootsect.zip
You will need to go to the control panel, select the large icon view, go to the folder options icon, View tab, and select the show hidden files and folders option.
Once downloaded, copy the BootSect.exe file to the same folder that includes the installed Windows7-USB-DVD-Download-Tool.exe file. The default install directory of that file in Windows 7 is C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Apps\Windows 7 USB DVD Download Tool\
Run the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool application as indicated on the Microsoft Store web site. The end result will give you a bootable USB flash drive that contains everything you need to install the 64-bit version of Windows 7.
