Using Third Parth Compact Flash in a 2811 Router?

Hello all. I have a 2811 with a Cisco-installed 64MB compact flash card installed. It's not enough to install CallManager Express. We are in a pinch and need a bigger card fast. We tried using a Transcend 256MB compact flash card (not Cicso-approved or anything).
It doesn't work though. As far as we can tell it is formatted just as the 64MB card. Has all the same files on it but it won't boot.
If we boot with the 64MB card and then swap in the 256MB card, the console will display messages saying CompactFlash has been inserted. But "sh flash:" will result in device "flash:" not found.
Please, any ideas?
We should be able to use third-party CF cards if we want to right?

There are some third party compact flash cards that will work. You will need one that is NOT high speed or ultra or anything like that. I use a traditional san disk 256Mb CF card and it works great (also used in a 2800). I always carry one in my bag that has all the IOS's for recovery purposes. Here is a link for the one I use.

Compact Flash ASA 5510

Hi I want to know if the compact flash of a 2801, 2811, 1841, etc works or it's the same as the compact flash for an ASA 5510.
Thanks and regards.

Yes, these all use Type I Compact Flash.
Hope this helps. If so, please rate the post.

MSI 6667BB-003US Sees 16GB Compact Flash Card as 34MB

I just got a MSI 6667BB-003US nettop from Newegg and am trying to use the onboard compact flash slot. I got a 16GB Kingston compact flash card to use with this computer but the computer only sees it as 34MB. The BIOS doesn't give me any options to change settings for it. How do I get this thing to recognize the full 16GB of space on this card? I've used a card reader on my other computer to check the card and it shows up correctly.
Thanks.

Who knows why, just 'one of those things' I suppose...
But thanks for posting back with the outcome!

Compact Flash Reader slow

Before buying the new mac pro (2ghz with2 gigs of ram) I had the G4 mirror door, 1.25 ghz with 1.25 ram. I use the Delkin compact flash card reader, firewire. Last night was the first time I used the computer to download images from my digital camera. I thought to myself, this is really going to be a lot faster than on the G4, wrong! it seemed to take just as long as before, I am using a variety of cards, one of them is the Kingston Ultimate, 4 gigs, 133X. I tried with the reader connected to the firewire port on both the back and front of the computer, no difference. Should this card reader work faster on the new computer? Other question. I don't know if there are card readers that are USB 2, if so, would they be faster?
thanks

I think Barefeats took a look and reviewed some CF cards and readers, I think focusing on the FW800. But if I recall correctly, the FW800 product has been removed.
USB2 is going to be as slow or slower than FireWire.
Things that are faster, cpu, memory, drives, and PCIe.

Auto-update of 2120 startup application using compact flash

Just getting started with a 2120, but have one "tricky" question. I want to have my executable run off the controller's memory, not the compact flash; however I also want the executable to check for software updates on a compact flash card. In other words, if there is a compact flash card present when the app (controller) starts, and the executable on it appears correct (size, name check), then copy the file to that controller's startup folder to replace the existing app... The executable would bypass normal operation at that point, provide LED feedback to alert the user to reset the controller (& remove card), and "voilà"! We have an almost automatic compact-flash updatable, self-starting application...
Question(s):
- do I need to worry about whether I'm building the app to the controller's memory, to compact flash, or locally (to later copy onto compact flash)?
- are there any issues with having a program copy an update over itself in this way (different types of memory, when used, etc...)? Alternative would be to have a 2-stage app: 1 checks for update, launches the 2nd if no update (single app would be cleaner)
- am I missing anything else?
Thanks,
Phil

Hi!
If I understand correctly... You can do following steps:
   - you develop your application for cFP2120, and download it to cFP's C: disk, then you can copy it to a compact flash. I am referring to a "developing" cFP2120.
   - in field, you have another cFP2120, running an application that you created before, and you insert compact flash with new exe. You reboot controller.
   - the resident application checks for updates, and find it on CF card. This boot application copies executable from CF to C: disk, (maybe better if you use .par extentions until opy does not finish!).
   - You manually (or programmatically) reboot controller with new application.
   This was my idea, but, because of customer doesn't asked me to proceed in implementing it, so I stopped, but I'm always interested in knowing if this can work.
   Some problems with this may be the coerence of libraries..... Please, if you find this way succesful, let me know....
   Another possible solution is to use the "open VI reference" method, but I am not used with it.....
   Hope I wasn't too confusing

I have Photoshop Eleent 12 and use a Windows PC. I hae been using a Canon EOS 50D for several years, which uses a Compact Flash Card. I have always downloaded pictures by using a card reader wich I connect to my computer. I Go to the Organizer, click on "Import" and select "From camera or card reader". Once on the Photo Downloader, I select the pictures, chose the folder and click on "Get Media" and all the photos get downloaded. Today I folled the same procedure as always, but ZI'm gettig an error message that reads"Import Failed" followed by another message that reads "Nothing was imported. The file(s) or folder(s) selected to import did not contain any supported file types, or the files are already in this Catalog." I'm puzzled by this message and don't know what to do o get my photos. Any suggestions?

The organizer doesn't care where you send your photos when you download them via the downloader or where they happen to be when you first bring them in if you use the Get Photos command, but once your pics are in the Organizer, you *must* move them from within organizer or it can't find them. You don't have to use My Pictures at all if you don't want to, but regardless of the folder where you put your photos, if you want them someplace else, you use organizer to do it.

Use compact flash cards to transfer drivers?

Once I install Win XP I figure I could setup my internet and get all the drivers I need. Out of curiosity, if I can't configure my internet properly for whatever reason, could I tranfser files on a compact flash card? I have a 512 MB CF card for my Canon S1 and this PC and the Neo2 I'm setting up has a floppy card reader. I could put all the drivers I need on the CF card and transfer them over? Apparantly XP doesn't need a driver to use the CF card reader. I also have an external USB card reader I could try instead. Just wondering if that would work.

Shouldn't be a problem if you have the card reader.

When i put in a compact flash card iphoto automaticaly comes up to import my photos. I have to exit out of iphoto to use the editing softwear that i prefer to use every time. It is very annoying. How do i prevent this from happening?

How do i prevent this from happening? I have looked in system prefereces....maybe i am over looking something, Thanks

iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> General -> Connecting Camera opens.... And select your preferred app.
You can also make the same choice in the Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) and Aperture preferences.

Can I use 60 MB/s Compact Flash cards in my EOS 40D?

Can I use 60 MB/s Compact Flash cards in my EOS 40D? I have been using 30 MB/s cards for several years and would like to get faster speed if the $)D will accept the faster cards

It will accept them but it may not transfer any faster. That's limited to the buss used back then which was most likely the fastest it could be in it's day.

I have an iPad 2 and a Nikon DSLR. How can I transfer RAW/Tiff images using a compact flash card

I have an iPad 2 and a Nikon DSLR. How can I transfer RAW/Tiff images using a compact flash card? Plugging in the camera at the ipad connector doesn't seem to work, possibly due to lack of power.

This may apply.

Are you using an SD, SDHC, or SDXC card? And what capacity?

Problem with Plugging in Compact Flash Card

I am having a problem now when I plug my compact flash card in to download pictures. When I plug the card in, the AutoPlay window pops up, as it always does. However, I also get another window that pops up and says "Lightroom must quit because catalog named Lightroom Catalog.lrcat is not writeable and cannot be opened. This could be caused by incorrect permissions or because another Lightroom application is using the catalog. You may select a different catalog the next time you run Lightroom by holding down the control key while Lightroom launches."
This problem started yesterday. I had just upgraded to LR 3.5 the day before the problem started.
Couple of other things:
1. Lightroom was not launched at the time I plug in the card and this problem has occurred. In fact, I just restarted my system a shortwhile ago to test this problem, and it happened again.
2. My Lightroom catalog is actually called Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat, not Lightroom Catalog.lrcat.
3. I have never had my system set up to automatically launch Lightroom when my card is plugged in.
4. I have not actually downloaded any pictures from a card for about 2 weeks before I did yesterday, so I cannot say for certain whether or not LR 3.5 is the cause of the problem and perhaps something else is. But the fact is that I did upgrade to LR 3.5 a few days ago.
5. Once I close both the AutoPlay window and the LR dialogue window, I can launch LR 3.5 with no problem and import pictures as I normally do.

Your description of what you've done and the code you show does not match what the tutorial says to do and what code to use... (there is no stopAndGoTo() function in Flash).
Right-click the second frame on the upper layer labeled Actions and select Actions. Copy and paste the code below to make our preloader functional.
if (_root.getBytesTotal() != _root.getBytesLoaded()){
gotoAndPlay(1);
bar_mc._xscale=(_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100;

IMac error message with 32Gb compact flash card from Nikon D4

Hi
I have a iMac 2.8Gig core 2 duo running 10.7.4 - I get a error message (the disk inserted is not readable by this computer) when using 32gb compact flash cards from my Nikon D4, have tried bith Sandisk and Lexar cards same error message. However both cards work fine on my MacBook Pro and a Windows machine. If I format the 32Gig card in my Nikon D300 it is recognised on the iMac. So it appears to be the way the Nikon D4 formats the card that the iMac dosen't like, however as I said it's fine in the MacBook Pro.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

On both Fomats, use Disk Utility on both the Volume & Partition & the blue Info icon to see what the differences are.

Copying file from a Compact Flash Card or Epson Picture Viewer issues

I am a photographer and have been experiencing issues when trying to copy or move files from my compact flash cards or my viewer HD device. Both my Sandisk reader and the epson connect to my iMac through USB (rear ports) and during the copy process, I get messages that one of the files are in use, and the rest of the copy is aborted. Since the copy process doesn't work in a numerical or filename fashion, I have to look through each file that has been copied and try to identify which files were missed. The weird thing is that if I try to copy the file that was mentioned in use, it works fine
I am copying to a USB External drive, connected to my Airport Extreme. I've encountered the same things when the HD was connected directly to the iMac.
I am getting very frustrated with this process, and am looking for insight on how to make this go away, or at the very least, is there an application that will copy/move and verify the files before exiting? I can't help but think that I may have missed files here and there, and those files could be now lost memories.
Any help would be appreciated

They'll record either while simutaniously recording to tape. I believe the HDV is in a .M2t format but I'm not sure about the DV file format. As for quality, your guess is as good as mine, I haven't had the chance to play with one yet.

My Macbook Pro won't read my Compact Flash card

Here’s the problem.
Mavericks won’t acknowledge the existence of my Compact Flash card when presented in a card reader (I have tried two readers). It is a card I have been using with Lion on my Macbook Pro for some time quite happily.
There is nothing wrong with the card; it works just fine in our Windows machine and in my camera.
My Compact Flash card is a Kingston 4Gb card. It was formatted in the camera.
The camera was bought approx 2003. Its a digital Pentax Optio 33GS (top of the range at the time shooting 3.2 megapixels!).
On my Macbook Pro 15” (bought new approx 2010) the card does not appear in Finder but does appear in Disk Utility.
The information for the main entry on the LHS in Disk Utility is displayed as follows:
Disk Description: 4Gb Generic Storage Device Media
Write status: Read/write
The sub entry which appears as disk1s1 on the LHS is:
Mount point: Not mounted
Format MS-DOS (FAT16)
I attempted to erase the Card using Disk Utility; I selected the main entry on the LHS and I chose the format MS-DOS (FAT). This returned a Disk Erase Failed msg “Wiping volume data to prevent future accidental probing failed.”
I then tried again, this time selecting Windows NT File system (Tuxera NTFS) as I have Tuxera installed. This did not work either; it failed with the same error msg.
OK so then I tried Mac OS Extended (Journaled) but this failed as above also.
I am not quite sure why, but when I reinserted my card into my camera, my camera could not read the card so I had to reformat the card within the camera.
Oh yes, I also tried rebooting my Macbook with the card inserted but this made no difference.
I have run our of ideas. All help gratefully received.
Thank you. Carol
PS ... apologies to anyone who saw my previous post in which I referred to my card as an SD card when in fact it is a Compact Flash card
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
I have this question too (0

Okay, I am making progress here now.
Using the link in my message above timestamped Dec 13, 2013 4:24 AM, I filed a tech support request describing the problem. Because they asked for details to confirm that the problem was with their product, I copied and pasted pretty much verbatim the text from my message above.
Around noon, same day, I got a message back from technical support saying they were sorry for the problem and would provide me with a replacement unit. Two hours later, I got a message from their RMA department saying that because the product has a two year warranty, they needed a copy of my receipt. I located a copy of my receipt for the purchase from Amazon on September 10, 2012 and forwarded that to them.
At this point, I am optimistic that it's going to work out okay. So far, I am very impressed with the responsiveness of Kingston's technical support and customer service departments.
If I actually do receive a working replacement, I will post an update here.
