Unable to locate external device after upgrade

i have been using FCE 2.0.3 and mac os 10.3 to view clips on video monitor (tv) easy set up was dv pal. so i chose view and and then firewire from the FCE menu to review clips on video monitor through my cannon mv750i-worked ok until recently. I have also been able to capture as well. Nothing wrong with the camera as it works ok in another computer (power pc) which has mac os 10.4.7 but fce is still 2.0.3. So is something i am not doing?
i then upgraded to mac os 10.4 and fce to 3.5 and easy set up also at same dv pal and a window message comes up informing me that "unable to locate external device" or you have changed system configurations. I have made sure that the camera is on. so please can someone tell me what i can do?

When I recently upgraded from OSX 10.3.9 to OSX 10.4.7 I found that FCE 3.0 would not recognise the camera.
When I upgraded to QuickTime 7.1.2 the problem immediately disappeared.

  • [nothing to do/solved]unable to mount external devices after update

    Hi,
    in recent times I was unable to mount usb-sticks for example after a kernel update, I assume. The first time mount didnt know the fstype vfat nor any other.. and now the second time the device wasnt even listed under /dev. dmesg told me that the device was recognized though. Rebooting the system fixed it both times, but this isnt really satisfying.
    Since I am not that knowledgeable, I would like to know what I could have tried.
    Thanks

    There's nothing wrong here. You updated the kernel and didn't reboot. The modules needed for the drive did not exist when you tried to mount it.

  • Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3.

    Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3 on my 27" iMac.
    When searching in Apple Mail, sometimes a get a few results (with many missing), and sometimes no results at all.
    I had absolutely no problems before with Snow Loepard.
    I have reindexed mail and my startup drive. I have followed discussions regarding this matter and tried everything - a waste of time.
    This is VERY serious for me - I have many thousands of messages that I archive and need to reference for work and clients, and now I cannot find them.

    I found out that I needed a $100 mini displayport to dual-link dvi adapter to make my $30" cinema display work with my macbook pro
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter?fnode=51
    When I found out that solved the problem, I took it back because that was too expensive for a stupid adapter, and it still didn't work perfectly.

    FCP has some features that FCE does not.
    Also, not all FCP and FCE versions can interchange.

  • Unable to print from iPhoto after upgrading to Yosemite?

    Whenever I want to print from iPhoto, the application on the IMac becomes unresponsive and will not print. This all started after upgrading to Yosemite. My printer is updated, so now I have no idea how to make this work again. Any help would be great.

    Rebuilt iPhoto, it is updated, but still is unresponsive. I get the spinning wheel that never goes away until I force close the app. The printer works on other applications.
    OK and I see the issue is only with iPhoto. The only thing I can think of is resetting the printing system and then re-installing the printer(s). DO NOT use any of the printer's software for installing, simply follow the directions for adding a printer in Mac Basics: Printing in OS X - Apple Support.
    To reset the printing system, open System Preferences - Printers & Scanners - locate the device in the window on the left and right click the offending printer and select Reset Printing System....
    After you have reset the printing system and re-added the device then shutdown (not restart) the computer for about 30 seconds and restart and then test.

  • "iTunes was unable to verify your device" after succesfully completing recovery mode on iPhone 4

    I have an iPhone 4 which has never caused me any problems, until i updated to iOS7 it started lagging and battery didn't even last until midday (having it charged 100% in the morning!).
    In just a few days it turned off automatically and wouldn't turn on. I googled and solved it by pushing the two buttons together for about 10 seconds. iPhone revived, and all the data was intact though many people states it would've been erased.
    The morning after, using my iPhone more carefully not to have it crash again, it crashed. 10 seconds wouldn't do and I gave up, until the day after I found by surprise that the battery had run out and it finally showed some sign of not being completely dead!
    I connected the cable to iTunes and pushed the Home button before connecting the iPhone and it entered Recovery mode. Recovery mode was completed and the iPhone had to restart to complete the process. While completing I get the error message "iTunes was unable to verify your device, please disconnect and reconnect your device". And from here I don't get anywhere, so I will probably visit Apple Store and ask what can be done, but if anyone has had the same problem please share any possible solution to this problem!

    I had to contact Apple Store and make an appointment. They tried the last step suggested (which I had already tried three times) and stated that the memory had failed. They said it probably failed due to having some small issue already on the phone and then updating to a new iOS.
    They could only offer me an exact copy of my iPhone but new for 149€.

  • Unable to Activate my iPhone after Upgrade to iOS 7

  • Can't Recognized iPod device after upgrading to iTune 7 / 7.0.1

    After upgrading to iTune 7 (and later 7.0.1), my iPod Video 60G (firmware 1.2) has been having problems getting recognized by my desktop.
    Symptoms:
    - Device manager in Windows 2000 reports the device as an Unknown USB Device
    - The iPod won't get recharged nor sync'ed.
    - The "Do not disconnect" screen won't appear on the iPod.
    - Since Windows can't recognize my iPod at all, of course I won't be able to see it in iTune.
    I plugged the iPod to my Dell laptop and got it recognized and recharged properly though.
    After poking around for a long time, I figured that if I disable the USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller on my desktop (thru the Device Manager), I can finally get the iPod recognized properly. Problem is, now it takes forever for me to sync my iPod (USB 2.0 disabled, so I'm stuck with the slow USB 1.1)...
    I noticed that after upgrading to iTune 7, the display backlight on the iPod is kept on (though dim). If I remember correctly, on older versions of iTune, the backlight is completely off. I'm suspecting whether the extra current draw required by the dim backlight is screwing up my desktop USB....
    Anybody from Apple gonna look into the issue and consider turning the backlight back to off in the next release??
      Windows 2000  

    I have no problems on my Dell laptop... I'm having problem with my 4-year old non-brand-name desktop only.
    ... which is kinda abnormally 'cause normally you would expect USB 2.0 power problems on laptops only. Btw, I've got the latest drivers installed already for the chipset and Win2K etc...
    What's more interesting... is the fact that on older iPod firmware, everything was running just fine... upgrade to iTunes 7.0 and boom... I'm having problems. And, it's not recognized at the Windows USB device recognition level, so I think we can isolate the problem source to the iPod firmware upgrade.
    Seriously... my bet is on the extra power drain from the backlight being left on during USB connection...
    Guess i'll have to stick with slow USB until Apple has a new firmware...
    This latest upgrade is generating a lot of unhappy customers...... and the sad thing is, Apple did a bad job in backward compatibility and made it extremely difficult to downgrade to an older version of iTune / firmware.... Apple better get these fixed asap...

  • Is old iPhone still usable as entertainment device after upgrading?

    My wife and I both have iPhone 3G's that we're planning to upgrade to iPhone 4 units at the end of the month. Our kids are addicted to the devices as entertainment units.
    After upgrading to iPhone 4, can we still use the 3G units just for playing games, etc? I.e. no phone service, just use it as a glorified iPod Touch? If so, anything special we need to know or do to prepare for the hand-off to the children?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    You're welcome.
    Why would I take the SIM card out of the iPhone when I upgrade?
    Not sure, but some people do thinking they have to.
    The iPhone 4 uses a micro-SIM card, which is smaller than the SIM card used with your existing iPhone. The SIM card used with your existing iPhone can't be used with the iPhone 4. The iPhone 4 will ship with a micro-SIM card pre-installed just as your existing iPhone shipped with a regular size SIM card pre-installed.
    If your kids don't need internet access, you can leave Airplane mode enabled on the iPhones.
    In case you decided to remove the SIM card for whatever reason is the reason why I included the part about having to have the no longer activated SIM card inserted in a no longer activated iPhone in order to install a firmware update when released, or to restore the iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed.

    can anyone help?Search the bugs database to see if someone else already reported this; if not create a new bug entry. Whatever mistake you could make, you should not be getting a NullPointerException as a result so this is at the very least a bug in the error handling of webstart.
    But just some observations to try and see if you can make a difference (which is added input for your bug report). If I check JNLP examples, I see that the url specified is usually without a protocol, so it could be like this:
    <jar href="/resources/applet/formeditor.jar" />The JNLP should be on the host that you service the jar from, so Webstart can fill in the host information for itself.
    Also you provide a main-class; if the jar manifest specifies a main-class (and it should) you don't need to specify it in your JNLP file.
