Find Instrument Driver will not find 6070E vi

I am trying to find vi which have been written for PXI-6070E card. Some basic, like output 1 V out of the DAC1OUT.
When I use the 'Find Instrument Driver'...and query National Instrument (Company) and 6070E (Additional keywords) I get no drivers? I recall being able to get drivers before.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks,
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The Find Instrument Driver tool is for finding drivers for instruments like scopes, DMMs, power supplies, etc. The PXI-6070E is a DAQ card, so examples for it would be installed when you install the DAQmx drivers. You can find the examples in the Example Finder (Help -> Find Examples), and search for "DAQ", or go to the Hardware Input and Output -> DAQmx folder from the tree menu.

Unable to open Finder window from Safari download list

I have just noticed today that I cannot click the magnifying glass in the download list in Safari to open the Finder window with the location of the download.
I have tried deleting the PLIST file as well as reinstall Safari - still can't get it to work.
Anyone have some ideas?

If you are referring to the com.apple.Safari.plist try something different.
Quit Safari.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy/paste: ~/Library/Safari
Click Go then move the Downloads.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari to test.

Unable to open finder

Hi all,
yesterday I was converting a big pdf with calibre. When operation was complete and I closed program, my finder (snow leopard last version) freezed. If a click on it, nothing happen... and if I right click I can see two "strings" with the pdf I was converting. I can only open it with right click and "open new finder windows". I've tried repair disk and permissions and to delete, from preference folder, apple.finder and apple.desktop too, but nothing happen. Can anyone help me please?
Thank you all!

Did you restart?
If not trash those files again and then immediately restart or kill (Activity Monitor) and relaunch Finder.
EDIT: If that doesn't work for you, try starting up Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If your apps functions correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to/Users/yourname/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving/Users/yourname/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
If the issue is systemwide then, you may be able to repair this with the The 10.6.3 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.

Hello viratfromva,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your flash drive. I found an article with steps you can take when an external device is not being recognized.
I recommend following the steps in the section titled "Top troubleshooting tips" in the following article:

Why am I not able to open external hard drive (FreeAgent GoFlex Desk) window??

I am simply trying to open a Finder window of the external hard drive itself so that I may copy over my Iphoto Library to it. However, I am unable to do so! There is no window to open. When I connect my Free Agent GoFlex Desk external hard drive, Time Machine automatically begins and I see this green icon and the words, "Time Machine Backups" under Devices in Finder. That all works fine and as far as I know the backups works just great. But I am unable to open the external drive in a Finder window! In my research, I've found the simple recommendation to: "In the Finder, the external drive will show as an orange drive icone in the left pane." But I don't see that, I only see the green icon as mentioned above. What is going on? Why can't I see this drive and open a window?? Thank you in advance!

You already have. Disregard the icon's color and follow the rest of the instructions. Note that Time Machine will eventually use all the free space on the location it's backing up to, so you should create a separate partition for other data.

Problem in opening 'Find Service Request' and 'Create Service Request' HTML forms

Hi,
I am working on creating some date for EBS Service, and I am unable to open 'Find Service Request' and 'Create Service Request' HTML forms.
I keep getting the error message :
Oracle error - 20001: ORA-20001: APP-FND-02902: Multi-Org profile option is required. Please set either MO: Security Profile or MO: Operating Unit profile option. has been detected in MO_GLOBAL_INIT.
I have min knowledge of EBS set up and configuration. We just use EBS as a source system for our ETLs. Please suggest any workaround to get resolve the issue.
Thanks,
Kishore

Navigate to System Administrator responsibility > Profile > System. Search for the profile MO: Operating Unit and under responsibility field, put in the responsibility name you are using for creating the service request, click OK and enter the desired operating unit value in the next window. It pulls up all operating units defined and you can chose the desired one.
Thanks

I need urgent help with my macbook pro, installed a theme and now unable to open windows, please help !

Hello,
I installed a theme on OS X Lion that was actually made for snow leapor, because on a youtube video someone said it works with Lion too,
After installing it I got problems seeing close and minize icons.
And After reinstalling my Macbook pro, I am unable to open finder, Safari, Terminal etc.
I have tried to get help from several help forums, and tried changing files as described here
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3256533?start=0&tstart=0
Theme was downloaded from here

Okay, it's both for your first question: When I import the songs to the library, the songs are not in the correct order as they were on the CD. And, in the process of my importing the songs, the library scrambles the songs in different sections of the library (I explain further below)
I don't know what you mean by "little triangle" pointing up or down. What's that got to do with the price of fish in China? lol
When I get the music in the library the songs come out sorted this way: 2 songs from CD 1 appear one section of the library, then 1 song from CD 2 appears in the next column, along with the album work. Then, I go down farther, and there's a few more of the songs from CD 1 in the next section. I go down again, and maybe 2 or 3 songs are in that column. Along with the artwork for that CD. Then I scroll down again in the library, and there's maybe 3 or 4 songs from CD 1 there. Get the picture? It keeps sorting the songs in that order. And yes, the CDs I was importing were compliation dance CDs, along with some from the same artist, like Barry Manilow.
I hope I answered the questions better so that you can help me Thanks in advance, Glenn

I downloaded an Adobe file from my email but cannot find it on my hard drive or in recycle bin - it's in downloads but am unable to open from downloads - how can I recover the file?

I downloaded an Adobe file from my email (service provider is MWeb) but now cannot find it on my hard drive and it's not in the recycle bin. It does, however, appear in Firefox downloads but I'm unable to open it from there. How can I recover the file?

Thanks Rob.
I actually had no clue what the core problem was caused by. So it's Windows itself...that helps some.
I'll resubmit there. It might actually have saved time for it to simply have been moved to there instead of off-topic, though I suppose you have to follow protocol.

I just replaced my hard drive and restored everything from Time machine. However, I am unable to open iphoto and the following message appears Your photo library was not found. Do you want to find your iPhoto Library?

Twas quite a hassle if I am honest which was eventually resolved but I don't feel qualified to help anyone through the process as it required a trip to my local apple store and a genius bar appointment.
Personally, I would do anything like moving pictures out of folders etc. Certainly not creating a new users. i don't think that is an elegant solution
Try the following which MAY just about rescue the situation for you but if they don't work you may have to do something more drastic.
(1) Holding down Cmd & Alt at the same time, start iPhoto by clicking on the iPhoto icon. From the resulting menu choose Rebuild photo library by selecting all available options given to you and then pressing REBUILD!
If that doesn't work
(2) Fire up Utilities. Go to migration assistant. Chose 'From another Time machine back-up'. Open the 'Users' option that comes up next and from there select Pictures, then uncheck everything else like Applications etc (you don't want to do a full migration of everything) and click go.
If that doesn't work, take a deep breath and this step is rather complicated but it worked for me. First of all close iPhoto! Then go to new Finder window.
From the Finder window choose Pictures, then iPhoto library, press CMD and the letter i. It brings up a new window. Go to Sharing & permissions. From there select the padlock to unlock settings. and then select User account, then press the 'cog' icon next to +/- abd choose Apply to enclosed items.
This may take a while. Once completed, re-open iPhoto.
And that should (I stress should) cure it.
Good luck.

can anyone pls help how to set the db offline. currently i stopped the sql server services from services.msc and started the sql server agent.
should i stop both services for moving from one drive to another?
note: I tried teh below solution but this didint work:
ALTER DATABASE <DBName> SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
Update:
now am getting the message :
Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40

First you should have checked the database mdf/ldf name and location by using the command
Use CMP_143
Go
Sp_helpfile
Looks like your database CMP_143 was successfully detached but mdf/ldf location or name was different that is why it did not get copied to target location.
Database is already detached that’s why db offline failed
Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40
The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.
EXEC @RC = sp_attach_db @DBName, @DESTData, @DESTLog
Attached step is failing as there is no mdf file
Msg 5120, Level 16, State 101, Line 1
Unable to open the physical file "D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\CMP_143.mdf". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)"
Solution:
Search for the physical files(mdf/ldf) in the OS and copy to target location and the re-run sp_attach_db with right location and name of mdf/ldf.

Help! Finder unable to open and dock not responding

Hi there,
I'm running osx 10.4.11 on my mbp 2.16 ghz, 1gb 667MhZ Ram. my mac was set up for me so that the Hard drive was partitioned. However, the other day the 'boot drive' was almost full and was slowing down the computer really badly, limiting it's functionality (couldnt open itunes etc etc) so i tried to move files onto the other side of the drive to free up a bit of space and seem to have caused a complete nightmare.
not only can i not open finder at all...all the icons on the desk top have disappeared and the dock doesnt respond at all, except for safari and system preferences. spotlight isnt working either and i've tried to repair everything using disk utility function on the intstall disk...and guess what...thats not working either, it tells me there's nothing to repair.
i really dont want to have to 're-format' the whole computer and am aware that I've probably moved a key thing to the wrong part of the computer. is there anyway i can fix this? am i able to access the computer without the need of an icon (a kind of ctrl/alt/delete function that you might use for a task manager on a pc?)
any ideas?
HEEELLLPPP!

I think, as you've suspected, you moved critical items from the System, out of their necessary location. Unless you have another Mac, with firewire, you are probably going to have to reinstall the OS. This is not a reformat, just an install of the OS. I think it will be a lot easier than accessing that Mac with another Mac in Target Disk mode, then trying to find out which system files were moved.

My external hard drive is 'seen' by my iMac and I can go into the Finder and open files and folders. I am using the hard drive for Time Machine back up. However Time Machine says it can't find the drive. Same thing has happened with Final Cut Express.

My new LaCie external hard drive is 'seen' by my iMac and I can go into the Finder and open files and folders. I am using the hard drive for Time Machine back up. However Time Machine says it can't find the drive.
The same thing happened recently between Final Cut Express and my other LaCie external hard drive used as the Scratch disk. It fixed itself.
I've run out of ideas. Help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

have you done some searches on FCPx and time machine? Is there a known issue with using a TM drive with FCPx? dunno but ...wait...I'll take 60 sec for you cause I'm just that kind of guy.... google...." fcpx time machine problem" Frist page link
http://www.premiumbeat.com/blog/fcpx-bug-best-practices-for-using-external-hard- drives-and-final-cut-pro-x/
You cannot have time machine backups on your hard drive if you intend to use it in FCPX.
booya!

"unable to open project file" on external hard drive

I see other users had this same issue, but I read all the relevant posts and they haven't helped me. basically, I created and saved a project (along with all scratch disks) on an external hard drive. then, when I closed the project and re-opened it, it was "unable to open project file." however, it looks like all the project files are still on the hard drive (capture scratch, autosave vault, etc.) so seems like this should be redeemable. what can I do?
thank you in advance, you are angellic!

What is the exact message? Try copying it to your computers system drive and opening it? What about in the Autosave vault? Look in there for the last backup, try opening that.
