USB and external HDD not detected by OS X

Hello.
Since last few months, whenever I plugin a USB pen-drive or an external hard disk, it seems at first that the system has not detected the disk, since nothing shows up in the finder and there is no way to access the disk also. The disk connection is complete since the lights turn on immediately.
When I remove the disks from the port, I get a message that I should first eject it and then remove the disk, which is not possible because I CANT SEE THE DISK ANYWHERE.
Now I plugin the disk the second time and IT GETS DETECTED.
I have to do this with every external storage disk EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Someone please help me find a solution to this problem.
Thanks.

Hi James,
The USB hub will not function on a non-Apple branded monitor without connecting a USB cable from Type-B USB port on your monitor to one of your mac's Type A USB ports. The USB host bus should be beside your Display Port output on the monitor. Generally, a Type A to Type B USB cable will be included with your external monitor.
Hope that helps.

External Hdd not detected

Hi guys,
I've got this issue where my Macbook Air cannot detect my external hdd (not showing up on disk utility), where as my Mac Mini can. I assume it's a software issue. Both are running OSX Mavericks (Latest edition) and there is nothing wrong with my USB port in the Air (detects my mouse, flash drive etc.).
The hdds' LED no longer flashes when plugged in the Air but functions fine when plugged in the Mac Mini.
Is there any manual reset command (through Terminal) or setting in the Macbook Air without having to factory reset?
Thanks in advance for your help!

If the hard drive is bus powered (it doesn't have an independent power supply) the MBA may not be supplying enough power to the drive. This isn't an uncommon problem. I have a cheap external at work with this problem which I solved by plugging it into a powered USB hub instead of directly into the computer. Had that not worked I'd have tried finding an external power supply for the drive - or junking the enclosure.

[Forum FAQ] Removable media and external HDD

Scenario
There are two conceptions about which we would have confusion in some particular scenarios: removable media and external HDD. Here are two examples:
If you need to make a USB storage device perform AutoRun, the device must not be marked as a removable media device and the device must contain an Autorun.inf file and a startup application.
Answer File Search on removable read/write media.
Definition and Research
The definition of the removable media and external HDD is shown below:
The removable media device setting is a flag contained within the SCSI Inquiry Data response to the SCSI Inquiry command. Bit 7 of byte 1 (indexed from 0) is the Removable Media Bit (RMB). An RMB set to zero indicates that the device is not a removable
media device. An RMB of one indicates that the device is a removable media device. Drivers obtain this information by using the StorageDeviceProperty request.
External HDDs typically connect via USB; variants using USB interface generally have slower data transfer rates when compared to internally mounted hard drives connected through SATA.
That is, the removable media has a device property attach itself, from the results on Linux and Windows OS, we can see the difference between removable media and
generic external disk:
Here are the outputs of dmesg log on Linux OS:
sd 10:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk
(generic external disk)
sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk
(USB flash drive)
Here is the output on Windows OS:
We use following command to get the media type of physical drive:
Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_DiskDrive | Format-Table Name,Model, MediaType
Conclusion
From the device’s property, we cannot say that external device is equal to removable media totally. Removable media is associated with the RMB flag, of course, RMB is embedded in device itself.
Now, back to our common issue, when you supply an answer file on a USB external HDD, it would not recognize your device as a removable media, because the StorageDeviceProperty gets value 0 of RMB to indicate this is not a removable media. In this situation,
supply an answer file on a USB flash drive (UFD) or floppy disk would fix this issue.

Ive had it on my Ibook before and then moved it to the HDD because of Space Shortage, and then just added as ive aquired more music. Idon't Really Remeber but i think it worked before without any hiccups. oh well otherwise i can just delete those files because theyre only single files here and there. but its quite irritating because they don't seem to have any kind of corruption.

[SOLVED] External HDD not mounting at boot

So, I've got this USB external HDD which won't mount at boot time. I set it in /etc/fstab using its UUID and it works immediately after boot if I do
sudo mount -a
I had it before on a different machine, running Arch too, and never had this problem. How can I see what's going on at boot time? I usualy just start the computer remotely (wake on lan).
Last edited by RaisedFist (2010-10-21 11:22:46)

Couldn't it be caused by the external HDD not being ready yet when the system boot? Nowadays I rarely encounter these issues, but some years ago even certain internally connected drive would need a delay to get ready for boot. If so settings in BIOS has to be adjusted.
Just a quick guess.

Is it better to daisy chain an apogee duet and external hdd or...

...setup an audio interface and external hdd to two separate bus ports? I ask because I going to be purchasing gear to set up my first home recording studio and I am torn between the MacBook Pro 15" and 17". The 17" comes with an Express Card slot (which I could use to utilize more bus ports), but is less portable and a little more expensive. The 15" is ideal in size, but lacks two firewire ports and Express Card possibilities. I know firewire is a must for a 7200 rpm external drive, but I have read very negative reviews about USB powered audio interfaces. Is daisy chaining a good idea? Are USB as bad as I've come to understand in terms of clarity and quality? Is the 17" my best option? I am looking at a starter's interface, like an Apogee Duet. The new Apogee One looks intriguing, but again, it is USB.

+1 for daisy-chaining Duet to Glyph. For audio work the 17" is the best option these days. The ExpressCard slot is invaluable for using Universal Audio plugins or powering an additional firewire device above and beyond the audio interface/hard drive, such as the Focusrite Liquid Mix.

External monitor not detected on Thinkpad W530 intel-virtual-output

I'm having problems with connecting my ThinkPad W530 to external monitors since a few months. I'm using NVIDIA Optimus and bumblebee/optirun since the VGA and Mini DisplayPort connectors are only wired to the NVIDIA card om this laptop. For a long time I have executed:
$ optirun true
$ intel-virtual-output
Then I have started the Screens GUI tool in Gnome to setup the placement of the external screen but now the external screen is not present in the GUI tool and xrandr gives me:
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767
LVDS1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm
1920x1080 60.00*+ 50.00
1400x1050 59.98
1280x1024 60.02
1280x960 60.00
1024x768 60.00
800x600 60.32 56.25
640x480 59.94
VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
If I select "Discrete mode" and select startup screen as VGA in the BIOS the BIOS and the Grub screens shows on the external monitor but the screen locks on the screen that shows that the system is booting with the linux-ck kernel. This has never worked for me in Arch Linux so that is no surprise. In Ubuntu everything everything worked fine the last time I tried.
How can I debug this? Why is the external screen not detected any more?

Thanks, I am not sure exactly how to read the logs but I cannot find anything that is obviously wrong
Below is my log with an external screen connected via Mini DisplayPort and after running:
$ optirun true
$ intel-virtual-output
a few times, no more logs seem to be added when I connect/disconnect the monitor or when I run the above two commands more times.

HDD not detecting

Hello! My SATA WD Caviar Green with SATA&IDE USB 2.0 Cable not detecting in Windows 7. I can see "DISK 0" in Disk Manager and when i trying initialize "DISK 1", i recieving a message "Device not ready ". Does anyone any ideas?

have you set-up "jumper" settings? ( master/slave )
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-42470
ps: make sure your secondary hard disc is working.

Is it possible to make OSX see the internal and external HDD's as one large drive?

Is it possible to make OSX see the internal and external HDD's as one large drive? For instance, hypothetically, could I have a Mac Mini Server with 2TB of internal storage and 2 external 4TB Thunderbolt HDD's, and make the OS see them all as one large 10TB drive?

Yes it is possible to do this, but this is not recommended since a disconnection of the external drives would lead to a destabilized system. Its best to do this only with internal drives, or secondarily with only external drives that are set up separately from the boot drive.
However, if you do wish to do this then you can combine any local set of volumes into one large "spanned" hard drive using Apple's CoreStorage volume management service. It does take a few steps to set up and requires use of the Terminal and Disk Utility. Here is a tutorial on how to do this: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57550128-263/how-to-make-a-custom-corestora ge-drive-in-os-x/

Restart windows setup and see if your problem was solved
If your problem doesn't solve after restarting your pc then on the select drive to install windows page press
Shift key + f10 then now Command promopt was opened then type "Diskpart" Now new window was open then type "List disk"
Now If there you will see your Hard disk drive then try the following
type "select disk 0" (0 is your disk number replace 0 with your disk number as shown in window)
now type "clean" Please note Clean command was format your hard disk completely with recovery drive Now type "convert to MBR"

Smartband and Lifelog does not detect jogging

Hello,
Smartband and Lifelog does not detect jogging (does not distinguish walking and jogging/running).
For example - walking with speed 5.7Km/h and treadmill running with speed 9-10 km/h.
Smartband worn on left hand.

Hi,
As I understand, lifelog log your exercise as running if the pace is 2.5 steps/ second or above.

Windows 8 and itunes can not detect itouch

I have windows 8 and itunes will not detect my itouch? Any tips?

Chris CA, I am having the same problem. I actually just purchased a brand new laptop (w/ Windows 8 already installed) and had to download itunes latest version (ver. 11) and am having the same problems. As my itunes seems compatible with my Windows 8, my itouch device can not be recognized by itunes or in the "my computer" folder.
perhaps this more of a windows 8 issue and not an itunes issue?
PS, i have OS4 on my itouch, could this be a problem as well?
Thanks!
Petit

Strange issue - XI somtimes process a file and sometimes its not detected

Dear friends,
We have a strange problem. Ill describe the situation:
We have a simple file to file scenario without any mapping or File Content Conversion. Daily a sender system puts a ZIP file on a server and XI processes this file.
The strange thing is that XI sometimes processes this file and sometimes its not detected at all. After our analysis we come to conclusion that its not random.
We have looked at almost everything. We have checked the:
File name;
Size of the messages.
Authorisation;
Users that are assigned to the processing job.
Has anyone experienced the same problem or does anyone has a suggestion?
Helpful points will be rewarded,
Kind regards,
Kamran

Hi Mickael,
There are no stupid questions, there are only stupid answers. So I hope my answers are not stupid
1. what is your Polling Interval of your Sender Agreement ? Once a day ? every 60s ? etc...
because you say that your Legacy put the file Daily.
Answer: The polling Interval is 400 seconds and Modification Check is 400000 Msecs
2. Are you sure that your Legacy does not put the file after or during the XI adapter try to catch it?
Answer: No Because Modification Check works perfectly and we get alerts if the file is modify during the process.
3. Does your filename is always the same ?
4. or Have you a filename which can changed and which is case sensitve (lowercase and uppercase).
Answer: It has always the same name and It starts with O2C.zip
5. What are the size of your failed file?
Maybe it's too big and maybe you have a timeout somewhere (for instance into the adapter log)
Answer: It's not too big, it varies from 20 MB to 100 MB and we know that we can process files up to 700 MB
As I told before we have checked everything. Its very strange...
Do you have any other suggestion?

How to share my mac and external hdd?

Hey
I was wondering about something.
I have a mac at home, with an external HDD connected. Is there some way that i can get access to the mac HDD and external HDD through the web from another computer (probably a PC)? The thing is that i often can't bring my MacBook with me, and therefore has to access some files from remote access. I have had a look on several guides, but they don't solve the problem, as i don't have the "FTP-sharing" tab in System Preferences -> Sharing.
Any way to solve this? Btw, my mac is connected to a pretty fast broadband, so the connection is no problem.
Greetings
Sixmax
