Unable to run pse 13 dvd on surface pro while connecting through external dvd drive

Hello, I purchased pse13 DVD and a portable DVD drive to install this software on surface pro having windows 8.1 but this DVD is not detected on surface. Is there a way I can install this software on my surface?

You'll have to figure out why the surface isn't showing the DVD drive. For that you'll have to contact Microsoft or the DVD manufacturer to see if the drive is compatible with your Surface.

    How is your external drive formatted? Use Disk Utility to check the volume format. If it is NTFS, you will need to reformat the HDD as exFAT in order to retain universal compatibility (RW to it on both Mac and Windows).

  • Unable to connect to external hard drive

    Have just switched from a macbook to macbook pro, transferred all data etc via firewire with no problem. I have recently purchased an extreme base station and have ben using this with an imac and the mac book. I have a usb external drive and a printer connected to the base station via a usb hub. Both have worked flawlessley over the wireless network with the macbook. However, I can't get the new macbook pro to see the external hard drive, I have checked the automatically mount disk box etc, all to no avail.
    Any ideas??

    I have successfully connected two drives via a USB HUB, which worked flawlessly. I am however unable to connect another drive of a different brand and size and get it to be recognized. That drive is a Lacie bid drive ( 2 terabytes). It looks like the drive itself is an important factor. I tried every thing and this big drive would not mount.

  • Unable to run JavaScript via Console in Acro Pro 8.2.2 - security issue?

    I'm unable to run a JavaScript either from the Console or via AppleScript's do script.
    At first I thought it was a keyboard issue as I'm using a MacBook Pro, but fn-Return for Enter works in Acrobat 7.1.0 Console.
    Trying to run a JavaScript from AppleScript with do script returns 'Adobe Acrobat Professional got an error: can't continue do script'
    The various preferences are:
    JavaScript
    Enable Acrobat JavaScript yes
    Enable menu items JavaScript execution privileges yes
    Enable global object security policy no
    Enable JavaScript Debugger after Acrobat is started yes
    Enable interactive console yes
    Show console on errors and messages yes
    Security (Enhanced)
    Enable Enhanced security no
    I think these settings should enable JavaScript to be run from the Console, but I'm getting the impression that the latest security fix is locking down JavaScript despite these settings.
    I'm on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.5.8
    Has anyone else seen anything like this? Looks like I'll be going back to 7.1.0 for a while.

  • I'm unable to sync my iPod with my Surface Pro 3. Does anybody know how to fix this? Please share

    I've been able to download iTunes Version 12.1.1. I'm just wondering if i should get a new mp3 player since I've read that it's difficult to sync iPods with Surface Pros.

    Since the Surface Pro 3 is effectively a standard Windows 8.1 system with a "tablet" form factor it should be fine (I don't have one - yet - but I know people who are using the Pro 3 with iTunes/iPods without problems).
    You may be encountering an issue that occurs with the last two releases of iTunes - 12.1.0.71 and 12.1.1.4 are (unlike previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes) full 64-bit applications - prior to 12.1 most "64-bit" versions were actually 32-bit applications with a 64-bit installer.  Many users have encountered issues with the 64-bit version of 12.1 - less so with 12.1.1.4, but it appears that there are some remaining incompatibilities/inconsistencies with some 64-bit Windows systems.  Even though I've not seen this reported specifically for the Surface Pro 3, it may be worth trying this alternative installer: iTunes 12.1.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards).  The "for older video cards" label is a little misleading, since although this does resolve a video compatibility issue that iTunes detects when first run it is actually the same architecture as pre-12.1 releases (32-bit applications with a 64-bit installer).
    You don't say that you've actually had sync problems or are just concerned that you might ... if the former, posting back more details of symptoms may be useful.  For example, if you connect your iPod does it show up in iTunes?  If not, there may be specific resolutions that could work rather than using the "for older video cards" version - see iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

  • When i run Time Machine to back up my computer onto an external hard drive, i have no way of knowing when the back up process has been completed. I don't know when it is safe to disconnect the external hard drive - which is store in a separate location.

    When i run Time Machine to back up my computer on to an external hard drive, i have no way of knowing when the back up process has been completed.  This is necessary to know because i don't leave my external hard drive connected to the computer.  I routinely disconnect it after backing up the hard drive, and then i store the external hard drive in a different location from the computer.  So, knowing when the back up process has been completed would be a very helpful thing to have the computer specify. 

    Just enable Time Machine's menu extra (System Preferences -> Time Machine -> Show Time Machine in menu bar.
    This will add a little Time Machine icon to your menubar. When Time Machine is actively backing up your data, the icon will spin as a visual indicator. You can also click the menu icon to see the backup status, including how much data is left to back up.

    In the past, when I updated iTunes, some items would be 'lost'. I quit updating, still running 10.6. I do keep my files on an external hard drive, which I plug in before starting iTunes. If I leave the drive off, and update, would that keep me from losing any files? Also, does anyone know how to search the iTunes store by price? I'm particularly interested in movies and audiobooks... Thanks

    iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first.  Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one?  The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless).  To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes.  To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
    There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
    Realize what you are talking about is not "backup".  Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.

  • Running Itunes library on a new computer off of an external hard drive

    Hello, I've recently purchased a Macbook and an external hard drive. I transferred all my files from my old Mac onto my external and would like to try to run my itunes library from there through my new laptop as opposed to putting all the files onto the new computer.
    Is it possible to have the files exclusively running off the hard drive and never going onto the new macbook? How might I go about doing this?
    I've tried following some of the video tutorials but that just seems to route you to do it from your old computer off of a external hard drive, and nothing to do with using it on a new computer.
    Basically what I want to do is get everything running off the external (all the old computer's data) and none of it ever to set foot on my new Macbook.
    Thank you all in advance for your help!
    -Rob

    Assuming you use the iTunes default settings where iTunes copied added items to your iTunes folder and organizes your library (meaning - everything is all self contained in the iTunes folder), then all you have to do is drag & drop your iTunes folder (not just the iTunes Music folder you find inside the iTunes folder) to the external drive and copy the entire thing.
    If you want to test that it worked or would like to actually start using it from that location instead, use these instructions when you start iTunes to point it to the new location...
    How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304447
    If you are just testing to make sure a backup copy works and still want to use the internal location, then close iTunes after you verify it works, and restart iTunes again with the same instructions and point it back to your internal drive (original) location. Otherwise you are all set to use the library from the external location.
    When you move the external drive to another computer, use the same start up instructions above to point your iTunes on that computer to the library on the external drive.

  • Unable to access user account files in OS X when connected as external HDD

    Hi experts,
    I'm having a problem with my mac mini (McM). I'm using my McM as an external HDD and it has mutiple user accounts on it. While connected from another mac, I'm able to see the McM listed in the left pane as an external device. When i select the users folder, I'm able to see the lists of my user accounts in it. The real problem starts when I try to look for my files in the default folders of my account in the 'Users' folder. This would be like Users --> My account --> (Desktop/Downloads/Documents...etc).  All the folders here are shown with a RED MINUS DOT on the folder icon with nothing inside it.
    I have tried changing the users permissions for the folder but it doesn't allow and remains to be disabled. Tried changing the file permissions on the HDD itself, by selecting "Ignoring ownership on this volume" option but running into errors. Also tried copying the entire folder and sub-folders but the data is not available after the copy is done.
    So I'm now looking for a solution as to how could I take a back up of my files from the McM HDD without having to format it. There's some really important data that I can't afford to loose. All of my data is stored in the default folders itself and I haven't created any additional/separate folders.
    All help appreciated. Thanks.

  • Unable to run iPhoto on a new MacBook Pro after transferring from an older MacBook

    Hello,
    I recently transferred all of my information from an old MacBook Pro to a new one. Currently, when I try to open iPhoto, I get a message that states "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared. To prepare the library, use the iPhoto Library Upgrader available from Apple." I got the iPhoto Library Upgrader from Apple and downloaded it, but the same error message occurs. Any ideas? All of my photos are stored on my computer, but the application will not run. Thanks!

    It's not enough to donload the updater, you also have to run it. It's in your Applications/Utilities folder.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Hi Niel,
    So say the space used on my PowerBook is 55Gb, if i make a Partition on the External drive that's about 80GB, can i then, use Panther through the External drive and add to it aswell, but keep the rest of the drive for use in tiger, if that makes sense.
