USB drive access issues when using Windows Backup Win7Pro

I've run into a similar issue. I'm using an RD1000 USB drive which uses hard drives as removable media. There's an alert which states "Windows backup needs a CD/DVD or USB Drive to continue." It then states I
can continue the backup on the existing media or insert blank media. By simply selecting Continue the backup will proceed but this interrupts the backup every night so the backup won't automatically run until that challenge is responded too. I checked
permissions and reloaded the MS windows driver for the drive. I tried exFat and NTSF formats. Not sure how to force it to automatically proceed. The backup is only a tenth of the size of the total available drive space. Any
ideas?

Corrupt data error when using Windows backup on Oracle

Our SAP servers include a SDLT internal tape drive that we use for doing a complete system backup. When using Windows Backup we get the following message in the backup log:
WARNING: Portions of "\oracle\T00\sapdata1\protd_2\PROTD.DATA2" cannot be read. The backed up data is corrupt or incomplete.
This file will not restore correctly.
This is occuring on a couple of different systems but the wierd thing is when this happens in occurs on one Oracle drive in one system and the other Oracle drive on another system i.e. the G: drive on our TST sysytem and the E: drive on another. The E: and G: drives contain the main Oracle datafiles.
Has anybody ever encounter something like this and what can I do about it?
Thanks;
Gale S.

Especially no backup tool would know about the
fact
that a Oracle block had been changed after it was
copied.
Now I have to contracdict
There are backup tools (e. g. OpenFile Manager from
Legato/EMC), that track the filesystem changes and
makes sure, the backups are consistent in sense of
filesystem blocks. We´re backing up some ORA
databases (non-SAP, 7.3.4 and 8.1.7) for ages now -
and I never saw this kind of corruptions.
Well, these Backup-Tools do perform copies I/O-Consistent. That's different than DB-Block-consistent in the first place. Anyhow due to the fact that the DBMS do have a syncronizing between I/Os and writing out the blocks this leads both to consistent blocks.
I just wonder, how the database would deal with such
"inconsistent" files. Given the fact, you start a
backup at filesystem block 0, the database is being
backed up and a transaction is committed and
something is written to block 100, 200 and 500. The
backup is on block 300. If you now restore the
database, it has the already commited block 500 in
the file but 100 and 200 are not yet written in the
database file. The redo will then find an already
commited transaction on 500. What magic will tell the
engine, that this is due to an online database
backup? I mean, if you set the tablespace to backup,
the engine "knows" the state - but if you just backup
the file, the engine is unaware of that... I´m just
curious how this is handled...
Well the trick here is: we tell the database before we plan to copy the data. When a ONLINE backup is done, the tablespaces are set into BACKUP mode. This changes two things for us:
1. The datafile headers of these tablespaces are not updated anymore although dirty blocks are still written out to these files. Since the control files that keep the SCN (system change number) are updated nevertheless, the database will know at recovery time that these files had been in online backup mode and do need recovery to become consistent again.
2. The UNDO-information is not only written out to the UNDO/ROLLBACK-Tablespace but additionally to the REDOLOGS. So, for the time where the tablespaces are in BACKUP mode, we have all information needed to make a block consistent again - regardless if a transaction had been commited or rolled back - in the redolog. So a full recovery of all changes is possible with
that.
That's basically the "magic" behind this.
If the copy of the datafile is done without this - well, then there's no magician in the world that would been able to get it consistent again. Online Backups with Oracle are only possible with BACKUP mode or RMAN (ok, and possible some 3rd party hacks...).

WRTSL54GS USB drive access issues

Hi,
I have a Linksys WRTSL54GS (FW 2.06.0) for a bout a 2 years and have never used the USB port until now. I have WD 640GB (FAT32) BookShelf and I can't seem the access the drive through using shared feature.
1) Can't access the shared with any user id other than guest. I've created users but can't long in from my vista computer or laptop with any created user or admin ID. Can access drive with the user ID guest only.
2) Can't see shared directories or files.
3) Can't write to shared directories.
I've been trying to solve this problem for days with no luck.
Anybody have any idea what could be the problem?
I even tried using USB jump drives and still same problme. I've convinced it's the linksys WRTSL54GS. The feature I bought it for doesn't worked and I should have tried it when I first brought it.
thanks.

Anywone again? I hate to have to buy another router. I don't think I would bother with linksys if I have spend money on another router.

I am trying to reinstall Windows on my macbook pro. I downloaded the support files and Windows 7 iso file to a USB drive. However, when I try to run the setup.exe program I get the message "this program cannot be run in DOS mode."

I am trying to reinstall Windows (would not launch). I removed the partition and started over. I downloaded the support files and Windows 7 iso file to a USB drive. However, when I try to run the setup.exe program I get the message "this program cannot be run in DOS mode." I was successful before, what am I doing wrong this time?

Try a restart.
If that doesn't fix the problem, shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application unistaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Access USB HD over the internet using Windows?

I recently moved and had to disconnect my WD My Pro Edition II 2TB external drive I had been using for backup.
Its been several months (many upgrades to the iMac software during this time), and now when I try to reconnect the external dire (Use a firewire cable) it does not recognize the drive is there. I also tried "reloading" software from the Western Digital site, but after following all the instructions, it looks like my iMac doesn't support this software (I can't even locate it after I follow all the instructions.
Thnaks, for anyones ideas on how I can get this working again.....

First of all, you do not really want to use their software; if you want a bootable clone, use either Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper. If you simply want to drag and drop some files, you don't need software to do that. The important thing on any external drive is that you format/partition it correctly (Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and using GUID partition scheme).
Unfortunately, I don't know anything about WD drives or their software, so I don't have any idea what kind of backup you did. Having said that, it should still recognize the external even if it's outdated. Have you tried mounting it manually in Disk Utility? If you can get it to mount, you could (worst case scenario) just drag your stuff off onto your internal and then reformat the external.

Looks like I fixed it., thanks to another post I read. I went into my Norton Security. Under Settings. Chose Firewall. Program rules. changed the itunes setting from "auto" to "allow" This also fixed my error (-3212) which would not allow me to connect to the iTunes store.

R5K Sound issues when installing Windows 8.1

Hello everyone
I installed Windows 8.1 Pro as downloaded. I used BCA > USB on my R5K to install Windows.. (Boot Camp drivers via BCA as well). Everything works fine except the sound when using Windows. There is sound, but it all... sounds disturbing, like listening to a radio. Nothing like the sound quality when using OS X, no epic sound effects and crystals clear sound whatsoever. And I think it's not even using all the speakers at the bottom of the iMac when producing the audio. I tried playing with Sound setting in Control Panned, with the audio settings in MPC, VLC, iTunes, re-installed the drivers just to be sure nothing went wrong with the installation and nothing work, I am still getting that "crappy sound quality"...
I am welcome to any suggestions, spend half a day just trying to fix this... Thank you in advance

"Could not complete scan" error when using Windows Fax and Scan

"Could not complete scan" error when using Windows Fax and Scan with a HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus All-In-One network printer.
Printing is fine.
When using the HP Scan application, get the error "Scanner communication cannot be established".
When scanning from the printer itself it fails with the same message. In addition the printer panel displays the error:
"The scan could not be completed due to one or more of the following issues:
Connection to the computer is lost
The scanner is in use
OCR application is not installed"
My PC is a HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF 64bit, with ethernet cable to the router and ethernet cable to the printer
Originally ran Windows 8.0; recently upgraded to Windows 8.1.
Older separate Netgear router and modem was replaced with a newer Netgear Router/Modem, but both experienced the same problem.
There was no problem with the original Windows 8.0 configuration and only after upgrading to 8.1 did the problem emerge.
On my home netowrk I have an HP ProBook 6550b running Windows 7 sp1 that uses wireless to get to the Router, and it has no problem with scanning.
I have followed the recommendations of a number of articles relating to this issue (including: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c02915410&product=4323659#N94), but there has been no change in behaviour.
The printer has a static IP address;
Power settings have been adjusted to Never for Turn off Hard Disk; Sleep and Hybrid Sleep.
Scanning has been tested with all firewalls and antivirus turned off and in Selective Startup.
The printer has been plugged directly into the power socket.
With all these settings the Windows 8.1 cannot scan while the Windows 7 laptop with wireless to the router has no problems.
Appreciate any insights into this problem.
I can only surmise that the problem is a compatibility problem between the 8600 Printer and Windows 8.1.
Any ideas?
regards,
Motorbike

You can determine if there is compatiblity between the printer and PC by checking the Windows 8.1 hardware compatibility list. I have done that and it is shown to be fully compatible. If the driver you installed before was only the basic driver,it would explain the lack of scan and copy functionality.
Download and install the Windows 8.1 full feature driver and software on the HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF 64bit PC .

When using Windows 2007 in Vista and HP Deskjet 6620 the bottom line gets cut off

When using Windows 2007 in Vista 32bit and HP Deskjet 6620 printer, the bottom line gets cut off. I have searched and searched but find no fix. Please help. What I do find is HP blaming Microsoft and Microsoft blaming HP. Where is the fix??? Think of all of us frustrated users. Is there a fix out there????? I attempted to download a new driver, assign it then attempted the patch all to no avail. I was even told try to bold the document...still no fix. Where is the patch? This is an HP issue. Please assist.
I hope this gets addressed ASAP. In my search many have had this issue with HP. Here is one comment...and it does not look good..."I am extremely upset with this issue and spent far too long trying to work with HP support. The HP support person was hopeless. I gave up and went off on my own. I hope HP releases drivers that correct this problem rightly in the future."
If this is not fixed or addressed I am sure it will affect the future buying of HP products from me and others. Let's see HP come out of this issue smelling like a rose. I await the fix.
Message Edited by KimINgr on 07-13-2009 08:01 PM

I will reply to myself....there is a fix. Thanks to someone else who had the same issue, went round and round with HP and then had this issue escalated up to get a more experienced tech who then had the print driver 990C installed to replace the driver he had selected. Me I had the 6620 which is the correct driver but had the issues so I tried the 990C driver and guess what.....it worked!!!!!!! So, HP is this your driver issue or is it Microsoft? I say driver issue. You might want to get a patch out their for the fix.

Internet Explorer 9 not showing as not installed when using Windows Update - Error: Code 9C48 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.

I built a few new Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 VMs today and ran into a problem where Windows Update is not detecting the fact that Internet Explorer 9 is already installed. Internet Explorer 9 keeps showing up as an available update when
using Windows Update. When I try to install it as a test I get the error message: Code 9C48 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.
My normal build procedures include applying all the patches for the OS prior to any other work on the servers. The way I like to do the patching is to do every update other then IE9 in the begininng and once all the other updates have been
completed, install IE9 and then patch it if there are updates available. I followed this procedure on every build for the last year and I have not run into any issues until today. The only difference today is the latest patches that were released yesterday
April 10th, 2012. To test the theory that it may be one of the latest patches, I reinstalled Windows from scratch making sure to format the disks and then I installed IE9 right after the OS install without any other updates. Once the
server was rebooted, I checked Windows Update and Internet Explorer 9 still showed up as update (Not the Cumulative Update which normally shows up after an IE9 install) and yes, I did make sure to click the 'Check for Updates' link before I looked just
in case. My next test was to patch a couple of the servers I had built prior to April 10th, 2012. Those servers did not have any issues with the latest updates and they are not experiencing the same behavior as the newly built servers.
I ended up comparing the IE9 Version on the cleanly install OS (No updates were installed except IE9) and the servers I built last week which were patched. The versions are exactly the same.
My findings above lead me to believe that there is a problem with the latest IE9 install package (which includes the latest cumulative update) and the Windows Update detection component.
I guess I am looking for someone to report this up the chain to get this fixed so no one else runs into this problem. I know in some cases we may not be able to see additional IE9 updates until this is resolved.

I just started having the same problem.
I was creating a new VM in Vsphere from our 2008 R2 SP1 image and it hasn't been updated and repacked in a while, so i have to install about 60 updates, including IE9.
I went through my normal setup as i had just created 2 VMs and updated them on Monday with no problem.
I got the same error code as you. The install looks like it installed IE9, but the update is still showing up as available in Windows Update.
I deleted the VM, created a new one, chose all updates except IE, then did that and it still shows up again.
Then i deleted the VM, installed just IE 9 and it still shows up as available on reboot.
I have a script that i can use to reset/clear WSUS cache on the computer, (Software distribution folder, and the windows update log, and recreates a certificate), so i tried that and then rebooted and it still showed up.
I then decide ok, maybe the Image got messed up somehow, so i started creating a new 2008 R2 install from scratch last night and chose to update just IE9 as the first install. I did that, rebooted and it didn't show up in Windows Updates, so i though GREAT.
I proceed to kick off the 100+ downloads needed before i left and left the console up.
When i got in to work this morning, the updater seemed stuck on 31 of 102 updates, this one in particular: KB288516. I rebooted the computer, because it wouldn't stop and just seemed stuck since last night, which these updates should only have taken about
an hour to install at most. I log back in and sure enough, it now shows Internet Explorer 9 at the bottom of the update list as being needed for install.
I believe this is Patch Tuesday week, so maybe they screwed up something with the Windows Update detection engine, because it worked fine on Monday when i had to update IE9 on 2 VMs that i created.

How to set an attached USB drive to automatic sleep using Airdisk?

Greetings all!
I am looking for a way to set my two USB drives to sleep when they are not being used. I only use them a few minutes a day, and don't want to run them down or use the electricity to keep them spinning.
It seems there has been some discussion about this but I haven't been able parse all the conversations. Some people seem to have gotten it to work, while others are relying on a drives "internal" mechanisms. It would be great if someone (perhaps at Apple?) could chime in with an overview of the problem.
Perhaps it is linked to the method of authentication - ie., (using Airport Utility 5.1), whether the Disks > File Sharing > "Secure Shared Disks" > is with "disk password" or another method?
Some have suggested a radio button for a future firmware/other update such as:
"Set drives to sleep when not in use" (Let's hope for this!), but I am hoping for a simple solution in the near future.
Any thoughts out there?
best to all.
*NB: I first posted this on Posted: Apr 4, 2007 12:23 AM and got NO response at all - hopefully I'll have more luck this time !

Hello Andy,
Thanks for your reply.
1. For using Microsoft Outlook rules, we need to keep the computer on, even after work or the colleague is on leave. That is not allowed in my company.
2. For sending an auto-reply email based on subject, that is impossible because the emails from customers are different and we don't have a basic standard.
3. Could you please elaborate how to set a transport rule in Exchange server to achieve the goal?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Steven
1. Only client rules require that the Outlook client remain open. An auto-reply rule should be server-side, so no need to leave Outlook open.
2. Yep!
3. Walk through the hub transport rules and you see one that replies with a rejection code. Thats the best you can get with a hub transport rule and not something I would recommend in your scenario. You could also search around for 3rd party solutions.
