USB drive issues with Maverick

Good day Apple friends,
Since I installed Maverick I have numerous issues with my Macbook Pro-Retina mid 2012.
When I connect my usual USB drives they don't react the first time. I always have to deconnect and immediately reconnect to make it work.
It is not a question of delay, it is a question of 1st or 2nd time. I basically go: connect, disconnect, reconnect and voilà!
It happens with many 2-4-8 GB USB sticks which were fine before Maverick. It does NOT happen with SD cards though.
Why?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

HDD USB drive works with Mavericks but not with Yosemite

I have a 1TB Maxell HDD USB that always worked fine with my MacBook Pro running currently iOS 10.9.5 (Mavericks) and I just bought a new iMac running iOS 10.10.1 (Yosemite). When I connect the USB drive to the iMac with Yosemite it won't even show up in the Disk Utility, regardless what format I choose when re-formatting it on my older Mavericks MacBook.
I have the same USB drive from Maxell with 500GB and that seems to work fine between Mavericks and Yosemite. So what is the problem with this 1TB USB drive? Does anyone has a solution on how to get to mount on Yosemite?
Many thanks for any help!

ITunes on USB drive issue with deleting songs

Hi!
I have my iTunes library on an external USB Drive but I have a big problem when I try to remove songs from iTunes...
When removing songs from iTunes I select the "move to trash" option. The songs appear in my trash but are not deleted from my usb drive... It seems that it simply copies them to the trash but if I browse through the "iTunes Media" folder on the drive, I still find all the songs.
Any ideas? this is a big issue for me since I have to daily add and remove hundreds of songs.
Thanks!!!

Have you emptied the trash?

Sporadic USB drive issue with Mini -- iPhoto can't save, can't eject

I recently bought an Ultra stackable USB enclosure and a 1 G WD SATA drive. The drive formatted ok and I was able to move 500 gigs worth of media onto it. So far so good.
Now, sporadically iPhoto and iBank (possibly others too, but I haven't kept track) complain that they can't save their data. They can open it but they can't save it. Running "Verify and Repair" from disk utility yields nothing. Rebooting and running the disk utility yields nothing either.
When that happens I close all the apps and try ejecting it. Finder says the drive is in use and cannot be ejected. "lsof" output from terminal yields nothing. Only thing that helps is either a reboot or "hidutil eject -force" followed by remounting the drive using the Disk Utility.
After that all is well for another 2 days or so and the problem surfaces up again. I am dumbfounded as to why this happens. The drive seems ok, everything seems normal, so I am lost.
Any thoughts before I call AppleCare with this ?

No, I eliminated that problem by connecting directly.
I noticed that I may have accidentally placed a shortcut to "Macintosh HD" on that drive. It is possible that ejection issues could've been caused by that, i.e. "Macintosh HD" is always in use. Perhaps that was my problem ? I deleted the shortcut, we'll report what happens.

Display and driver issues with Windows 7 on i5 MBP

Hello-
I just purchased one of the i5 Macbook Pros, and set out to get Windows 7 working through boot camp. I did this on an older model (32-bit) previously with no problems.
This time around, installation of Windows worked fine, but I have had some trouble getting all the drivers working. The setup.exe program on the OS X DVD didn't want to run at all, I had to do a workaround from the command line that I found on a forum (otherwise I just got a response of "Bootcamp x64 is unsupported on this computer model").
Eventually I got (at least some of) the drivers to work, but there are still some issues.
After installing the drivers, things like brightness and two-finger clicking started working. A number of other things still aren't, though:
- Display: My machine has a 1440x900 screen. But for some reason Windows refuses to go higher than 1280x800.
- Network: No wireless at all. Windows doesn't detect any wireless capability, and only gets on-line via ethernet.
There may be other issues, but these are the big ones. Can anyone provide suggestions on what to do to get everything working?
Thanks!

I just used winclone to move my Win 7 from my Core2Duo MPB to an i5 MBP and had to do a few updates and have eneded up in pretty much the same place as you. I won't bother installing from scratch. I'm guessing we just need to wait for some bootcamp updates for these new machines.
For those of you who are looking to migrate your bootcamp partition over, winclone made it easy - I followed the directions for resizing and Win7 boots, does a disk check, then installed many of the new drivers automatically. There are some drivers that are still needed however, wifi and video. I also so a USB driver issue but have to look at that a little closer before I comment.
Best of luck,
Simon

Apple Mobile Devices Support USB Driver issue

While I am aware this is a somewhat common problem, I have already followed all suggested routes I've seen for fixing it, and none have worked. My computer seems unable to detect my iPhone at all, and seems to fail to install the AMDS USB Driver (though all other elements of iTunes appear to install correctly.
Here is some relevant information to help troubleshooting.
I have already stopped and restarted AMDS and enabled automatic startup (http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567)
I have already uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and related services (Including AMDS) (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923)
I have tested all relevant hardware, including the iPhone itself, the connecting cable, and the USB ports that I've used, and all are functioning correctly (The iPhone can connect to other computers using the same cable, the computer can connect to other devices using the same USB ports)
I have the newest version of iTunes available (11.1.5)
While Apple Mobile Devices Support is installed, the USB Driver associated with it does not appear in the device manager. I have checked all folders in the device manager, including (but not limited to) Imaging Devices, Portable Devices, and Universal Serial Bus Controllers.
There are no "Unknown Device" entries in the Device Manager
My operating system is WIndows 7
Both before and after reinstalling iTunes completely, Windows is unable to detect the iPhone in any obvious way (My Computer screen, Device Manager, etc). The USB driver for Apple Mobile Device Support is not disabled, but rather does not appear at all.
What could be the cause of this problem? Is there a way to install the USB driver by itself without installing/reinstalling the related iTunes applications?
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

really? so apple.com arent checked by those who work on apple improvements? that would be kinda stupid im my ears. some comments here have an answer from ppl with an apple symbol, "specialists" they call them self. need some respons from them maybe.
i have tried everything, worked fine before the latest patch, so why cant it be a driver bug? they are humans too, they who make drivers. they just have to admit they had done something bad here, and solve it fast.
can i download an old itunes or something so i can atleast send my photos over.
the PC dont even say "couldn't install driver" or what it says in english, nothing happends at all. the drivers are there.

HT6030 Sound output issue with Mavericks

There is a sound output issue with Mavericks and Firewire800 Audio devices. I am using a MIO 2882 but now people are having issues with other devices as well. Is this something that will be addressed in an update? If not I will need to downgrade my OS.

maybe the adapter went bad.....fast. try getting one thats made by sony. or apple. i have had bad luck with some cheap products i bought.
or maybe thats the brand you have ad luck with. i remember when i use to get some quantom fireball drives, and they just died on me the next week. im down to two and keeping a good eye on them. especially fujitsu. the only ones i have GREAT LUCK with are Seagate and Western digitals drives.

On windows 8 and itunes I have importing problems the DVD is only reading the music cd from 1.5x to 4.0x for 95% of the time, it does hit speeds of 30x for the other 5% of the time. Is it a driver issue with the DVD or is it a windows 8 issue?

No. You have no alternative but to plug it into a computer running iTunes and restore it.

I use an older Macbook Pro from 2007 with OS X 10.7 – had issues with Mavericks, so I uninstalled it. I want to get a trial version of AE CS6 but I need to know the specs for it.

Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

Yes, BUT...
... there are many problems that are really easy to eliminate by replacing the Hard drive, including ones that have nothing to do with actual Drive Hardware failure. These include corrupted install of Mac OS X, its EFI partition, clobbered partition tables, or the appearance of Bad Blocks in a critical area.
Any of these problems can sometimes be eliminated by re-initializing the entire drive and writing Zeroes, and re-installing from scratch. The trouble is, this process takes hours to complete, and is not guaranteed to be successful -- you may still need a new drive after all that effort.
I learned from my Plumber that consumers have no appetite for solutions that might work, and detest return visits for any related problems whatsoever. You or your friend may have had your drive replaced, not because it actually failed, but because the situation was troublesome, and the provider thought you would not tolerate anything less than a crisp, complete fix on the first attempt. And based on the cost of technician time, it may have even been cheaper that way.

Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

I just signed up for FIOS and am not experiencing your problem (had enough other ones instead).
Go to mail preferences ~ click on a mail account ~ click on the advanced tab. The only settings that worked for me were: port 110 SSL OFF, authentication: Authenticated POP (APOP). If I remember correctly when I first set this up another window opened and I typed in my password and never had to do that again.
Hope this helps.

Audio driver issue with my HP Compaq DC7800 Convertible Minitower

Hello,
I am having an Audio driver issue with my HP Compaq DC7800 Convertible Minitower desktop PC.
A few days ago I have formatted my desktop PC and installed a new Windows XP Service pack 3. As I needed driver for my device I have managed to find all drivers except the one for my audio device. As I saw I have integrated audio on my motherboard, but drivers that I have found on a support site of HP (drivers download) none of them work and there are too many (I have also needed to download drivers for other devices form intel site but this is another issue). So, now I was hoping that someone can help me to find (finally) and install audio device so I can finish with installation process. I would be veeeeeerrrry thankful for that Thanks in advance.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

It does not matter . I have found the driver that I needed: ADI High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver - Sound Max
thx anyway

Measurement Computing USB-DIO96H driver issue with Labview 2012 SP1 on Windows 7 x64

Is anyone else having issues with measuremetn Computing's USB-DIO96H driver in Labview 2012 SP1. It throws warnings in Labview when loaded that are unresolvable as you can't save to the DLL driver file. Also it regularily crashes Labview randomly. I am not impressed with their driver. Anyone have any suggestion other than replacing with NI-DAQ solution, which I am working on?

I've taken a look and I don't see any drivers available for that device on ni.com. There are two potential workarounds that would both involve building your own driver:
1. Write a LabVIEW application that calls functions on the DLL you downloaded from Measurements Group
2. Write a LabVIEW application that addresses the device using NI-VISA and serial communication.
Some resources if you choose to go down that path:

IPhone 5 iOS 6.1.4 and Windows 7 x64 USB Driver Issues

Been pulling my hair out with this one for the last week or so and haven't had any luck finding anything on the forums or the web regarding a solution short of a full reinstall of Windows 7 which I am not prepared to do at this time; so hoping someone here can shine some light on this for me
I have a iPhone 5 that is updated to iOS 6.1.4 and a recently built Windows 7 64-bit machine. All of my other USB devices function fine (keyboard, mouse, Xbox 360 wireless receiver for Windows, and a Seagate 2TB external USB drive). I've downloaded the most recent version of iTunes, installed successfully and then attempt to plug in my phone to sync. I get the standard Windows *ding* that I've attached a device and 1 of 2 things happens (I haven't been able to determine what causes one reaction to happen versus the other): Windows will successfully install the 'Apple USB Mobile Device Driver' successfully and it will appear under my USB devices in Device Manager. However - iTunes will not recognize the phone and I cannot see it in Windows either. In the 'Devices and Printers' snap-in my iPhone will appear under 'Unspecified Devices' as the 'Apple USB Mobile Device'. The iTunes diagnostics fail to find a connected device so the tests fail. As soon as I unplug the device, the strangest thing happens: Windows will start trying to install a device driver and after a few seconds it will fail stating that the "MTP Device Driver" installation failed because the device was unplugged. iTunes also thrown an error "iTunes cannot connect to this iPhone" throwing error code 0XE8000065 (I've also seen error code 0XE8000085 as well)
After some finagling, I've managed to get Windows to recognize the device under 'Portable Devices' in Device Manager as an "MTP USB Device" using the generic driver. At this point, I've tried updating the driver and manually specifying the Apple USB driver located in the C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Drivers which updates successfully but then changes the device to "Apple USB Mobile Device" and moves it under the USB Devices in Device Manager; and Windows nor iTunes can see it even still.
I've tried removing iTunes several times and ensuring that all remnants of the installation are gone (registry and folders on the installation drive) and have disconnected all my USB devices short of the keyboard and mouse and still I get the same results. At this point, I'm afraid that a re-install of Windows is going to be the solution; but it's a drastic one (I have a SSD drive where Windows is installed along with all of my games for faster load times/better performance and do not want to have to redownload\reinstall all of them) and I'm not prepared to undertake it at this time, which is why I'm posting here
I've used a utility called USBDeview that sees my phone is connected - so I know from a functional standpoint that my USB ports are good and working. I also know the cable is good too - my daughter's PC (Windows 7 32-bit with NO iTunes) immediately sees the device when I plug it in, installs the drivers, recognizes it as an iPhone and I can then see/browse it in Windows Explorer like I would normally expect. My work PC (Windows 7 64bit, NO iTunes) sees the device just fine as well. I would immensely appreciate anyone that has seen this issue or has any additional solutions I can try.
It's also worth mentioning that I've never used Kapersky antivirus so the UPPERFILTERS value in the registry that I've seen as a solution on some forums is not present on my machine. I'm using Microsoft Security Essentials as my antivirus (no flaming please lol - it meets my needs and is extremely lightweight, which is why I'm using it on a gaming rig) and it's not indicating any issues. I've also tried running iTunes as an administrator (even though my account is a local admin on the machine) and that does not have any effect either.
If there is anything I left out, please let me know; and I thank you in advance!

Of course not. Didn't you bother to read the TOU of this forum? This is a USER TO USER technical support forum. Apple doesn't post here.
