USB Protection Help
Hello Apple Communities.
I hope I'm not asking too much of you all here, but here is the dilemma. I have a 8GB SanDisk Cruzer Edge flash drive. I'd like to set it up to where there are two separate logins for two partitions of the drive. I want one partition to be 3/4 of the drive space and to be protected with a password. The remaining 1/4 needs to be a guest partition where anyone can place anything without password issues. If that must be password protected as well, the password can be "guest".
As a sort of side note, is any of this possible on a cross-platform (Mac/PC) basis? It's fine if it's not
Thanks!
You can use Disk Utility to create the partitions and if you are not going to use the disk for Time Machine, you can format the disk as FAT or Ex-Fat to get cross platform capability. Mac OS can't write to NTFS without an additional software application.
Disk Format - Fat/ExFat/NTFS

Echo heard by others in VOIP application with USB Extigy HELP!
>Echo heard by others in VOIP application with USB Extigy HELP!x I have a soundblaster Extigy... the external USB model. It has been working fine for me but I just discovered a problem when I tried to use it during a Video/VOIP application.
I can get the other party up in the video session and I can hear them perfectly. They can hear me perfectly. The problem comes in when they speak.
When the other party talks they hear a huge eo on their end. I don't have an echo when I speak or listen.
We tried various things. When I disconnect my mic from my soundblaster and use the mic on my camera the other party does not have an echo when THEY speak any longer.
What is even more strange is that if I open Skype and engage in a skype conversation the person in the OTHER VOIP/VIDEO application can not only hear what is going on in that one, BUT when they speak the person in my skype conversation hears it! This is when the other party does not even have skype.
There is something definately going on with my soundblaster that is causing the other party to have an echo on THEIR end.
Any help would be greatly approeciated.
BTW... I'm running windows XP Pro.A Thanks for the help, we'll try that. We are using a D-LinkDGL-400 Router with th D-LinkModel DGS-2208 switch. The program we are trying to run is OpenMeetings (an open source application) that we are hoping to get up and running so non-profit organizations have a free place to collaborate (http://www.caihq.org:5080/openmeetings/
What makes this strange is that when I use the Creative Orbit Camera I have with the built-in Mic not running through the Extigy there is no echo but the background noise is a bit of a hassle.
I'll try all you said and post the results.
Thanks again for the help.

IPod touch failed set-up via USB - please help?
NB - this is not related to my Mac computer. I am connecting an iPod touch 4th generation to a Windows machine running XP (SP3).
The iPod is new and I can't get it to set up via USB connection to computer running iTunes (I have mobile broadband, and it isn't a wireless connection). I have tried the minimum, older version of iTunes and the most up-to-date version.
On connection, both the iPod and iTunes acknowledge each other and the iPod charges. It says "connected to iTunes", but does nothing further. Once the screen saver blanks the screen, it simply shows "connect to iTunes" again, clearly part of the set-up process, when I re-activate the screen.
In iTunes, the iPod Touch comes up under "Devices" at the left-hand side of the iTunes display, but I can't click on it to reveal anything about the iPod - nothing happens. At the same time, a progress bar appears at the tope of hte window saying, "accessing iTunes store" (I'm assuming this must be part of the set-up process?!), but it never completes. Sometimes, I get an error message telling me I have no active internet connection (the connection IS active, but I have also emailed my service provider in case this is relevent), but mostly it just hangs - in short, I can't do anything.
I can't tell you which version of the iOS the iPod is running, because - you've guessed it - it will only run its set-up procedure, and that's not completing, so I can't find out anything about it...
So disappointed, and very dispirited after spending days on this and getting nowhere. Apple has not responded to a service request thus far.
Desperate to get this sorted out, because the whole point of finally getting an iPod (which everyone told me would be so simple to set up and use) is because I'm doing a really big charity walk in a couple of weeks - that, and the training walks, are really long (next one, tomorrow, is seven hours), and doing them without music is soul-destroying.
If you can help, I'd be grateful beyond words.
Thanks for reading,
Sheri.Why do Apple not respond to correctly initiated support requests?
This is taking weeks to fix on my own - that is *crazy* in this day and age. Here is an update. Sorry it's long, but it's in case it helps anyone else. I tried *everything*.
What did it in the end was a tiny - REALLY tiny - thing, but I suspect it wouldn't have worked if not in combination with several other things.
It's a setting in internet explorer, which I use rarely if ever, but a friend (i.e. a stroke of luck that he was around) pointed out that iTunes uses it in the background to work properly, and it's a security setting in the "Advanced" tab of the "Internet options" bit of IE. You need to UNtick the box for "Check server's certificate revocation". Which suggests that, before doing this, iTunes was going into an endless loop of checking. Not sure about that, but anyway - it worked in terms of getting the oPod recognised and set up (but see later in the post for the current situation). BUT... before that, I'd had to:-
1. via my firewall, open two ports (80 and 443) needed by iTunes (I think this was key as well, actually - why on earth doesn't this sort of support come with the kit?)
2. uninstall latest iTunes and revert to a previous version (may or may not have been necessary, but seemed logical especially as the iPod's iOS wouldn't be up-to-date) - that needed doing twice, as the first version I tried was *too* early for a 4th generation touch
3. flush the resolver cache several times, and various other command-line actions
4. try all connecting and communicating in different orders (e.g. trying to authenticate iTunes *first*, before connecting iPod) - but now I've seen the set-up process once through in its entirety, it's become *so* obvious that none of that was working, so it's partly my inexperience with iPods which made it take so long to find the solution
5. try to set it up via the iTunes website instead (fail!)
6. test secure site (https) access and inputting various server addresses to see if my firewall or mobile broadband provider was blocking them
7. attempt connection with various parts of virus protection and firewall disabled, and even disable the entire firewall
Not to mention endless emails and discussion forum contributions, reading and tweaking, all the re-boots...
CURRENT SITUATION
Lots of aspects working, but as soon as I ask the iPod to do anything internet related (use Safari, access App Store, etc - or even just sign in), it returns the message, "Cannot connect to iTunes store" - despite being connected by a cable to a computer which IS connected to the internet and IS running iTunes, IS accessing the store, HAS synced with and updated the iPod...
Absolutely NOTHING in Apple "support" discussions/documents makes any difference, and is almost exclusively aimed at those connecting wirelessly anyway (so lots of stuff about routers, DNS settings, etc.); wireless is not an option oopen to me.
Unbelievable.
Any suggestions which don't just point me to an Apple support document would be very welcome, because I think I have read them all... -
N95 crashes in Data transfer via USB cable, help?
I ve been using my N95 with no problems for more than a year. Sometime ago I bought a new 8Gb Micro SDHC memory card, it was recognised by the phone and worked perfectly. But after the card was stored with data for more than 1gb, the phone crashes everytime I try to copy even the smallest file on the memory card through Data transfer mode via USB cable. Than I try to copy a file an error message is displayed in Windows XP and the phone reboots. The strangest thing that I can copy without a problem even a 500 mb movie file to the phone if the stored space on the memory card is say like 985mb, but after that it will crash even with the copying a 10 kb text file.
Any help would be appreciated.No, its not the file system or Memory card itself - cause transfering a data through a card reader works fine and the phone recognize correctly everything transfered. Can it be the case of USB cable driver? May be I need to install it or go for a newer version? BTW, I removed Nokia PC Suite from my notebook - cause I dont used it much, but this program still used a lot of my PC resources without asking to. I belive that PC Suite is not nesessary for using the phone through a Data Transfer mode?

10.6.8 Update - No USB Support - Help!
Early 2008 MBP under warranty for another 34 days. Nothing interesting installed beyond usual Mac, MS and Adobe software. Occassionally run Parallels 6, but not today and not recently.
At 9:00 was offered the auto update to 10.6.8. Closed open apps and let the MBP do its thing.
On reboot the usual screen came up but there was no trackpad or keyboard support. Was able to use a bluetooth mouse and all apps opened but still unable to type anything or use the trackpad mouse. Also noted that there was no USB support for an external drive, or keyboard (or I would have tried to roll back to 10.6.7 with Time Machine.
Rebooted multiple times with the same outcome.
Spoke to Apple and they had no suggestions except to get warranty help. Well that's 50 miles away (service provider, not an Apple store). Any suggestions to save me two trips (there and back to deliver and pick it up)?I have a early 2008 macbookpro 2.8 duel with silver keys.
I purchaed the 10.6 disk from the apple store. I've had the machine for years and purchased it refurbished from apple.
I did the erase and install and migrated everything over from external drive, then did update to 10.6.8 and the usb ports still would stop working after a few hours.. Then I read on another apple community forus to reset pram, and pull out the power cable, take out the battery and hold power key for 5 seconds, then restart. that seemed to fix usb issue so far..
But overall my computer seems to be running slower then when using just 10.5.8 and it did not wake from sleep once and I had to force power off and restart.. But maybe its just getting used to 10.6.8. we will see..
Also, on another note, my battery is totally dead, and I can only run computer with power cable.. Will this affect things? it never did with 10.5.8..
Oh, on my erase and install, I just did the simplest version and did not do the full erase to zero using he advanced security measures.. I just did the one where it writes on top of everything.. -
In trying to help another user, I was reminded of a problem I
face
often. Trying to create a DW recordset using an IN clause (I
think this
got broken in the 8.0.2 update and seems to still be broken
in CS3).
I create a string held in a variable like this:
$ids = (1,5,9,23,6)
My advanced recordset is this:
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE id IN varIds
Then I set the variable parameters to type=text,
default=(-1), and
runtime to $ids.
The generated SQL doesn;t work because DW puts single quotes
around my
variable and the SQL query becomes invalid. DW creates this:
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE id IN '(1,5,9,23,6)'
It should be:
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE id IN (1,5,9,23,6)
So, I edited the SWITCH block at the top of the document to
include a
"custom" type, which is the same as the TEXT type but without
the single
quotes.
case "custom":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theValue : "NULL";
break;
Then in my SQL statement, I manually changed "text" to
"custom".
This work fine, but does that open me up to SQL injection or
other bad
stuff?

Internet Systems and Applications (EMC Paradigm)It looks like you're using PHP ... to protect from SQL
injections I always
do this:
$query = "SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE col='%s' AND col2 IN
(%d,%d)"
$query = sprintf($query,"val",34,23);
$result = mysql_query($query);
This method ensures that if a user puts "DELETE FROM tbl" in
an input
field, it will not cause any deletions, instead the words
'DELETE FROM tbl'
will be inserted. Check out sprintf in the PHP manual - good
stuff!
One thing to remember about SQL injection, the injected SQL
has to be
entered somehow by the end-user (usually with a form); I may
be wrong, but
this sql statement looks like it is contained entirely within
your scripts
(i.e. it isn't getting getting a user-generated value to
build any part of
the SQL statement). Again, I'm guessing here - but it looks
that way.

Hey, I just bought a new HP 4GB usb key because I lost my old one. Anyways, the problem is that my new usb key is not recognizing on my macbook. It works fine on my desktop windows computer though. Do I need to reformat my usb key on my macbook and if so how? I always need to send data between my macbook and my desktop computer for work and school. So if someone can help clear this up for me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Hi There,
I had the exact same problem, for me it was because Mac and PC Formats of hard drives they can read and write are different, usually new flash drives come formatted to NTFC, which is windows standard, Mac should be able to read this (so you should see it come up) but it will not be able to write to this. The other popular format is FAT 32, Mac should have no problem reading or writing to this.
But best thing for now is to format the whole USB, Make sure theres nothing on it you dont want deleted.
Go to your spotlight (CMD + Spacebar) type disk utility. Check if the drive shows up here, if so click on it and hit the erase tab. Try formatting there and let us know what happens.......

Trying to boot from usb need help ASAP
Hi everyone i have a compaq presario CQ 40-330 TU laptop. Its dvd drive has failed few month ago and as i did not use dvd drive much so i did not replaced it instead i made a bootable windows 7 repair usb with this following procedure http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-repair-windows-7-from-usb-flash-drive-repair-without-installation-... Today i need to boot my pc using the usb drive but to my surpise it failed to boot. So i need your help ASAP because my laptop is now unbootable and i need it fixed quick. What should i do?? When i entered the bios i found out this information Boot option CD- ROM boot < disabled > Floppy Boot < Enabled > Internal Network Adapter Boot < Disabled > Boot order USB floppy ! Internal CD/DVD ROM drive. Notebook Hard drive ! USB CD/DVD ROM drive USB Diskette on key / USB Hard drive ! Network adapter. Please help.....
Hi. I think I have pretty similar problem on notebook HP Compaq NX6110 with crashed CD-ROM.
I've prepared the bootable USB drive using this procedure (with a small modification because I want to intall Windows XP):
http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/...
Anyway, in bios setup I change the boot device options so that the "USB hard drive" is set as "the first" and USB Superdrive (slt) is set to the second... I save the settings etc. I restart the computer and in the blue boot menu that appears I can only choose Notebook harddrive and Optical drive (no USB).
Any ideas? Is it possible that this notebook does not support USB booting thought there is an option is BIOS? -
L7680 Can't connect via Network works fine direct connected via USB Please Help!
Greetings All,
I have an HP L7680 that has been having this same problem since I purchased it and the only cure that has ever worked is to completley reload Windows XP and start over which I am very tired of reloading XP to resolve a printer problem.
This has been posted by several other people but I don't see where anyone has posted a fix.
When I first install the printer everything usualy works fine and it runs fine for a few mionths. Then the first indicatrion of a problem is the scanner quits working. Then when I try to reinstall the software the printer does not show up. I read and tried every solution and have spent nuerous hours with HP support to no avail.
The printer works fine direct connected via a USB cable and it works fine with two other computers on the same network. One of the other computers has the exact same OS and is the same HP model laptop.
I don't think the uninstall is completley removing all the files or reinstalling everything fresh when I reload. I have tried the Level 1 through 4 uninstall utility posted on HP's site and have tried all sugestions posted in this forum.
Below is a better rundown of the problem.
When the Scan function is called, a "Scanning" window appears, and hangs
I have an HP Laptop with XP32 Bit software
Once the scanning window appears it stays there forever
Only way to clear scanning page is to terminate hpoews01.exe with Task Manager
Scanner does not show up in Paint or Photoshop ect.
Web Scan Does work and printer shows up using IP address.
Scanner shows up fine on a web page
HP support in India has been no help and now my printer is out of warranty so even less help
Thank you,
DaveI had a similar problem with my OfficeJet L7680 and here's how I fixed it.
18APR10 - from Dan
I lost my L7680 network link (using CAT5 from printer to router) and could not print to it over the network. However, I could print from a PC with a USB cable directly to the printer, but there are currently three PCs connected wireless to the network. I think I have a viable solution for anyone with the same problem and is not related to the operating system of the PCs.
Originally, I went to the HP site and downloaded the program for the L7680, Critical Update to Enhance Reliability of Network and USB Connectivity and Improve System Responsive.... This worked wonders until my modem and/or router went down. I could see ink levels from my PC, scan, print, and so on. Then I somehow lost my network connection again. When I checked the network settings on the L7680 printer panel (Setup, 5 - Network, 1 - View Network Settings, 2 - Display Wired Settings), I noticed a different IP address than the original 192.168.1.100. Once I figured out how to reset the printer to that one, it connected and worked as it should.
Here's how to reset it: 1. Power down all devices (wired and wireless) to the router (I even disconnected the printer power cord and CAT5 cable at the printer); 2. Power down the modem and router - wait a minute or so before powering back up; 3. Power up the modem and give it a minute or so to go through system checks, which will normally acquire a new IP address from your ISP; 4. Power up the router and let it go through its system checks; 5. Connect the CAT5 cable from the printer to the router and power it up before you power up and connect any other computers. This should assign the printer the first IP address from the router, which should be 192.168.1.100. Once the printer goes through its start-up checks, you can check its assigned IP address from its panel. 6. Power up any other PCs or devices to the router. They should be assigned successive IP address numbers from the router. You can check these using a browser in the PC after typing in 192.168.1.1, logging in to the router, and checking the appropriate place in the router driver/software displayed in the browser. I was not able to reassign IP addresses in my router's driver/software to individual devices, but this method did the trick. I did not try to change the IP address of the printer from its panel to match what had been inadvertently reassigned to it. That might be another option to synchronize the printer and router with the same IP address. If the printer loses its connection again, you'll have to synchronize what the printer has with what the router shows. This worked for me. -
My iMAC i7 will not see the device, it is from firewire to usb.
Any help please.The connection on the player is firewire
You need the following:
Apple Thunderbolt - Firewire adapter
4-pin to 9-pin Firewire cable like this one
No software drivers are needed.
No icon will appear on your Mac desktop when the deck is connected. You need to use video capture software such as iMovie, Final Cut, etc. in order to "see" and use your Firewire deck. (I believe QuickTime Player will also "see" your deck and allow playback.) You will probably have to use the manual controls on the deck to control actual playback start & stop.
I have recently bought a cable,firewire one end and USB on the other
Hard to believe there is such a cable. If there is such a cable, it's a scam. Firewire and USB are totally different, electrically and protocol-wise. Even if there is such a cable, it will not work for connecting your miniDV player to a Mac. miniDV (video) has always been a Firewire-based connection. Sony calls Firewire "i.Link" -
Hi folks - I wonder if anyone can help. I am having real difficulty with USB on my system :O . My modem cuts out, my scanner won't scan and genrally the whole USB thing is getting to be a drag. It appears that the MB is the issue as I have tested the equipment on other machines and they work fine. My MB details are (from Sisoft Sandra)

The real drag is the only way to get USB back is to reboot. Any help gratefully received.

Rock Ape (UK) ) Thanks in advance.gilgaron is correct. power the hub and place the devices that require over 500ma on it-if the hub supports high power-which it should. look at your periphs you will notice that they have the power requirement listed on the sticker.
each individual root hubs only powers 500ma for all the ports not 500ma for each individual port. so the best bet usually is get a self powered hub and place the 500ma+ devices on it. also you may have the option of self powered device instead of usb power. that is also suggested if they need 500ma or more. -
SERIOUS PROBLEM Synching Palm Pre Plus (Verizon) with Companion Link OS USB -- NEED HELP!!
I am having serious problems with Companion Link OS USB synching with Palm Desktop 4.2 via USB on my Verizon Palm Pre.
The Verizon phone is my second Palm Pre. (The original Palm Pre which came from Germany worked perfectly with Companion Link).
The Verizon Palm Pre is a Palm Pre Plus.
As noted I utilize Palm Desktop software Version 4.2.0 on my computer.
I started out with Companion Link software Version 3.0 Build 3096 -- and have worked my way up to Version 4.0 Build 4008 over the last few months, and have spend hundreds of hours trying to solve the synchronization issue described in detail below.
The Companion Link software is configured to ONLY synch one way
FROM my Palm Desktop on my computer to the phone via USB
(I don’t want to put my contacts and calendar on the web, NOR do I like the way Google contacts works, even if I DID want to).
When I synch the Palm Desktop to the Palm Pre the following occurs:
The Calendar synchs fine.
The contacts do NOT synch properly.
I have 1,500+ contacts in my Palm Desktop.
For some inexplicable reason, during the synch process the approximately 1,200+ of my contacts are compiled under ONE contact listing (John Davis). The icon by the contact shows that TWO contacts are linked under John Davis, however when I click on the icon to see who is linked under John Davis, NO contacts appear. But I have the option to link additional contacts under John Davis if desired (AS IF!!).
So, 1,200 of my contacts do NOT appear in the contact list. If I want to call my husband, and type in Bruce, NOTHING comes up. BUT if I type in his phone number, the listing for John Davis comes up and shows me all the numbers that legitimately belong to my husband. Ditto my friend Susan, etc for the other 1,200 contacts buried under the contact listing for John Davis on the phone.
SO, if any of these 1,200+ people, call me or text message me, my phone tells me I have a call or a text from John Davis.
I cannot look up my contacts to call them or text them because the contacts do not actually APPEAR under John Davis (If the phone were just linking them and SHOWED them, I could manually de-link them).
FURTHER, when I get a text message from anyone who is compiled under John Davis, the text message is truncated. I can see the notification that I got a text message from John Davis, and I can see the first few words in the notification area, but if I open the text message, it appears to be blank (this only happens after synching Companion Link – before linking Companion Link all text messages are fine. AND, if I get a text message from one of the 300 or so contacts that actually synch into my phone correctly, the text messages are perfectly fine and work normally.
I have worked with BOTH the Companion Link technical support people AND the Palm technical support people extensively in an effort to solve this problem.
I have done Full Secure Erases and started over trying to get the phone to synch more than 35 times at this point.
I have tried synching from different computers
I have had Palm replace the phone TWICE (so this is actually my third Verizon Palm Pre Plus).
I have run Web OS Doctor
Nothing helps.
Every time the phone does exactly the same thing described above.
When I synch the phone it tells me:
Web OS: Added 1543/1543 Contacts to the phone
PC: Updated 1232/1232 Contacts
(The 1232 contacts being updated are the 1232 that are compiled under the one contact listing of course).
Needless to say, Companion Link says it is the phone.
Palm says it is the Companion Link third party software.
Since it is the same 1,200+ contacts every time, I have had both Palm and Companion Link examine my contact database to see if they could identify anything amok about these 1,200+ contacts, but there doesn’t appear to be any difference between those contacts and the 300 or so that synch into the phone properly.
Companion Link has told me variously that:
- This is a very rare Synergy issue and that I must turn off the Synergy feature on the phone (would that this could be done per Palm it can NOT be done).
- Only TWO people have ever had this issue (me and someone else unnamed);
- That this is a common problem with the Palm Pre, but Companion Link works fine with every other phone
- I e-mailed them my contact list and they SWORE to me that they were unable to duplicate my problem on their computers. (I don’t believe this)
- AND has most recently told me that there is nothing more they can do for me, that I will have to find a solution myself.
Palm has said that there is nothing they can do for me if third party software doesn’t work properly with the phone.
This does appear to be the Synergy feature run amok. But how to correct it???????
I love the Palm Pre. I love my Palm Desktop 4.2 software.
If I can’t get this fixed shortly, I guess I’m going to have to move back to a Treo 680.
Does anyone out there please, please, please have a solution or a suggestion that will help?
Post relates to: Pre Plus p101vzw (Verizon)Hello,
I am almost as frustrated as you. Purchased my pre plus back in may and bought the companion link software immediately ( I have synced via usb for years on other palms to lotus notes) All the information from companion link states that it does the job. I only need to sync my calendar, no contacts. I have put in a ridiculous amount of time with palm, my IT department and Companion link, IT HAS NEVER EVER EVER WORKED. I deleted, re installed, upgraded, tried different steps in different orders, I have gotten a new phone, tried it on multiple computers. NOTHING WORKS. Probably been through all these steps listed 50 times by now. Actually I think that companion link doesn't work for palm pre plus, they just are not willing to say so and advertise that is does work.
I am extremely disappointed in my pre because of this. I did my research before making my purchase, it appeared possible. I WAS a long term palm user. Currently looking at new phones and never again a palm. Companion link should be more careful about what they say they can do. One of the service techs actually told me that if I wanted it to work I should ditch my palm. That's service for ya.
Good luck, the fight got the better of me. I am done. -
I can't transfer from a legaly puchased music cd to itune because it is wma protected. help
I recently purchased a ipoud touch, installed itune on my window 7 pc and transfert all my old window média library to itune. Everything work ok except somes music files won't transfert because they are wma protected. Theses files comes from a legaly purchased cd. Can anybody help me. Thank's in advance.
If the tracks on the CD are copy protected, iTunes will not be able to import them. iTunes can import only from CDs that meet the international standard for audio CDs, which any disk that contains copy protection of any sort does not. If this disk came from the record company with copy protection, you will need to find out from the record company whether there is any way to convert those tracks to a standard non-protected format.
If this disk is one that someone imported and then burned, they apparently did not turn off the option, on by default in some versions of Windows Media Player, to add copy protection. You will need to acquire a copy of the original CD and import it yourself.

hey team
i need immediate help. my 32gb lexar usb stick is not longer being recognized by both my MBP'S
im sure i need to reformat it. BUT it doesnt show up in 'my computer' 'finder' or even 'disk utility'
although it does show up in OSX (apple logo>about mac>System) i can clearly see it in the jump drive.
does anyone know how to solve my sticky situation.1. If the drive inside it has failed, the data on it can only be recovered by a professional service, which may charge hundreds or thousands of dollars.
2. All drives will eventually wear out and fail. Keep any files you care about on at least two.
