Warning regarding disk not being ejected properly

I continually and sporadically get a screen warning that "the disk was not ejected properly" when no disk has been removed from the system.  What problem would this indicate?  How can it be resolved?  Thanks for any help you can give me.

Many of those WD drive cases, the drive was part of the case, which was news to me.
www.macsales.com/firewire has bare drive cases, case with drives.
maybe you can cut down on clutter in the process.
The ideal would be a PCIe SATA controller in your Mac Pro, then connect drive cases, and you can have 2-4 drives per case and their own power adapter and supply.
It  may have seemed cheap and simple to just start with a single drive for a need but at some point... consolidate your drives if possible.
I would not use a Passport unless you travel with it, they are more commonly used by laptop owners. They tend to put 5400 rpm drives in those, or green type, rather than a standard desktop or WD Black that is most common, to reduce heat and lower power requirement.
This is the newest 2TB Passport
http://www.amazon.com/Passport-Ultra-Portable-External-Backup/dp/B00E055H5O/
You also would be better off with a PCIe USB3 controller. I think (not sure so check it out, but USB3 probably supplies more power to the drive than the Mac's USB2 bus ports do.
http://www.amazon.com/Compatible-Windows-ORICO-PFU3-4P-Controller/dp/B008V3THAC/ r
OWC would be a good place just to check - Sonnet and CalDigit are popular and supported, USB3 cards do tend to cost more, and support has always been at the whim of OS X and changes.
The above USB3 card though does say "10.8.2 and above" and is cheap.

    I have a lot of grief with this version of Windows Media Player.
    It is very buggy and frustrating to use.
    I have my Music library on a QNAP NAS, which is as reliable as they come.
    System notifications make it not save changes.  It also does not do a good job of interpreting albums and artists from folders.  Changes to track names are not saved, nor are tracks moved to other albums, renamed albums, changes to genre, artist
    or date.  It separates and merges albums/tracks without sense or reason.  Some changes I've made up to 4 times, then closed WMP and re-started my machine to check if it has/hasn't saved the changes.  Often it has not.
    This is the first time I've used WMP in this capacity, and I do not recommend it.
    New service pack please.

  • The Dreaded 'Disk Wasn't Ejected Properly' Error Message

    Hi,
    brand new machine - hooked up an external USB 3 drive and switched Time Machine on.
    When the computer sleeps, it awakes to 'Disk Wasn't Ejected Properly' error message.
    Apple Support weren't much support, they had NO fix.
    Any ideas?

    If your OS is 10.8.5 then this is a known issue. A fix is in the works.

  • Disk wasn't ejected properly..Error

    All of a sudden, when my late 2012 iMac wakes from sleep it wakes with a white screen and then takes about 4 seconds to get to the usual desktop screen where I enter my password..
    When I log back in it says 'disk wasn't ejected properly' ..
    All I have plugged in is a DVD burner and a Lacie thunderbolt drive, as well as my SSD Internal Mac Drive.. 
    So basically I'm working away on my computer video editing, I come back a few hours later and the computer is in sleep mode and when it wakes up I get the error..
    Does anyone know why all of a sudden this could be happening or a way I can troubleshoot? Disk Utility verifies that my diskjs are fine by the way.

    If your OS is 10.8.5 then this is a known issue. A fix is in the works.

  • HTML file is not being shown properly in the JEditorPane

    Hi,
    I am using JEditorPane to display an HTML file from the local disk. This HTML file contains the html tables. Now when this file is getting displayed in the JEditorPane, one top row grid is not being displayed in the editor pane. content of the row is there...but the column grid is missing. All other rows and columns are being shown but the first row-column grid which contains the heading for column.
    Also when I m printing the content of this JEditorPane using Java Print API then no grid is being printed on the paper. content is coming properly but no table grids. when i have taken the print out of the original html file from the browser then table grids are being printed out properly.
    Please do help me out in showing the HTML file in the JEditorPane properly and printing the same.
    Many Thanks,
    gshankar

    Hi,
    JEditorPane renders HTML with many limitations.
    You can use JDIC for the same. refer: jdic.dev.java.net
    But JDIC does not work on windows 98.

  • Facet secondaryToolBar not being executed properly

    Hi Folks,
    I used Goldin's pagination solution, but I am having some issues.
    Paging of large data sets - SOLUTION
    http://vgoldin.blogspot.com/2008/02/myfaces-trinidad-working-with-large.html
    I saw that this is an asynchronous call.
    The search button calls an action event at my Backing Bean that creates a PagedListDataModel.
    The creation does not start a call to the EJB until the af:table needs it.
    After executing the RENDER_RESPONSE (afterPhase), the ADF Table starts to render and call the PagedListDataModel to get the page and print the records (famous Extracting Data... message).
    My table is updated properly and also the total of records is being print in the statusbar facet of my panelCollection that is being used around the table.
    The problem is with secondaryToolBar facet that has two buttons for EXPORT function (EXCEL and PDF). These buttons are not being updated.
    Since it is an async call, I tried to put a partialTarget on the buttons after calling the EJB and getting the list of records without success.
    I also tried to put a partialTrigger on the buttons for both table and panelCollection without success.
    I created a generic (any phase) phase listener in order to check how the things are going and saw that (in this order):
    . All the faces are executed (from RESTORE till RENDER). In the invoke application phase it just call the backing bean method and creates the PagedListDataModel.
    . After all the phases have been executed, the listener takes place and after all needed have been returned, TWO phase (ONLY TWO) are being executed (RESTORE and RENDER).
    Could you please anyone here give me a hand? :-)
    Thanks in advance.

  • Equium A60: DVD-RAM not being recognised properly

    Hiya!

    You could try this method, maybe it works:
    Start Registry Editor
    Locate the UpperFilters value under the following key in the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
    Locate the LowerFilters value under the same key in the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
    Quit Registry Editor and restart your system. Now windows should recognize your ODD correctly.

  • User Profile Disk not being created

    Hi,
    I created a new 2012 VDI collection. Things seems to be working fine except for the User Profile Disks are not being created. From my understanding a .vhdx prefixed with the user's SID is supposed to be created when the user logs into one of the virtual
    machines from the collection. I can see that a UVHD-template.vhdx" was created correctly but when logging on to one of the deployed virtual machines from the pool there is no  other .vhdx files (except the template).
    From what I've read the virtualization hosts must have write access to the share (they do).  I can't seem to find any other requirements. I've searched through event viewer and found nothing. I'm not sure which logs to check on which server.
    Anyone have any ideas what I'm missing?

  • InDesign CS3 5.0.4 Changes to documents not being registered properly

    My boss has been complaining about a lot of "mistakes" lately and changes not being made, which is odd because I don't generally make a lot of mistakes. So I started paying very close attention and this is what I have discovered:
    Sometimes changes that I make to a document will randomly revert. Sometimes changes don't get saved. The problem is random and not reproducible.
    For example: I made a change to an item, and then copied and pasted that item onto another page. The change "sticks" in the new location of the item, but the original somehow, at some random future point, reverts to the pre-change state.
    Another example: I moved an item on a page, then saved, then printed, then closed the document. In that order. The printout shows the change. When I opened the document again, the item I moved was back where it was before I moved it.
    I am not having this problem in any other application. Just InDesign. Can anyone help me? I don't know what to do, but if it keeps happening, it could get me fired.
    My computer is a Mac Pro 2.8GHz Quadcore. OS is 10.5.6.
    I have, of course, already tried repairing permissions. Thanks for your help.

    Hello Michael,
    I just posted the exact problem to a new forum today ...changes revert... Have you had any problems since the preferences were trashed...? Do you think the Save As technique will work alone without the trashing of the preferences?
    Well, you do have some company in your misery...
    as if that is any consolation for being fired. . .
    We hope it hasn't grown to that extent.
    We do a quarterly magazine (Veritas) ... and this problem has plagues us since we've moved to CS3 years ago and just thought it was operator error. Until we started noticing much of the same proofreading errors version after version.
    Let me know how you're progressing, and we'll report back about how we move along as well.
    Until that time ... Earl J.

  • Non Besy Buy Purchase Points Not Being Attached Properly !!

    Here's the terms. ...
    My Best Buy MasterCard (((non-Best Buy))) purchases:
    Get 1 point for every $1 spent on qualifying dining and grocery purchases.
    Get 1 point for every $2 spent on all other MasterCard purchases.
    Since around fall of 2013, I've had to call a HOUND the phone lines just to get my non-Best Buy purchase points credited. ...
    In the latest SAGA, thier response was 832 points for EIGHT months worth on non Best Buy purchases when I literaly ran THOUSANDS through the card in that time span. ...  Say WHAT ?  They are having me EMAIL pictures of my statements becuase evidenataly they can't download PDF files? In response, I converted PDF to JPG & put a picture of EACH month in a SEPARATE email & sent it back to them, but I've seen another fellow get his issue handled quite qucikly by using this forum.  I have to wait weeks, or days just to get a half hearted email response. 
    Best Buy Social Media...can you help? 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Greetings Thomas_G, and welcome to the Best Buy forum,
    Can we help?  Well, that is a definite YES!  You should not have to spend your valuable time calling into us just to make sure that your points for non-Best Buy MasterCard purchases are added to your My Best Buy™ account, and it is my goal that you will not have to call into us in the future regarding your non-Best Buy MasterCard points, as they should post automatically.  Let me see what I can do to help. 
    After using the email address you registered with the forum to review your My Best Buy™ account, I can see exactly why your non-Best Buy MasterCard points have not been automatically posting.  It looks like you had two accounts merged about this time last year and the merge was not processed correctly, which resulted in the link between your MasterCard and My Best Buy™ accounts to be broken.  We are going to want to make sure they are properly linked so that future points for non-Best Buy MasterCard purchases post automatically.
    I am very sorry for any inconvenience you have experienced so far, and I will be sending you a private message so that I can go over your My Best Buy™ account with you to see what I can do to further assist.  We do not have the ability to view a member's MasterCard billing statements, so I will need to gather some additional information from you.  To check your private messages, you will want to login to the forum and click on the little yellow envelope at the top of the page.
    Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us and for being a My Best Buy™ member.

  • Session state is not being passed properly to another page

    Hello Gurus,
    I have a multi-page application which authenticates using a simple authentication page 101. Right now I have a generic authentication scheme which always returns true (Session Verify Function= return true; I will integrate LDAP later.) It works fine. The app remembers the username from one page to the next (popup pages mainly).
    My issue is that, after exporting the application and re-importing into a new workspace, the user/session state is no longer being preserved from page to page. It prompts for a login every new page that is opened (the popups). This ruins the flow and functionality of the app.
    I've checked every setting (I think) and cannot find any differences between the two workspaces or apps. Any ideas why this would work in one workspace and not the other?
    TIA!
    Jonathan
    I should also indicate that the issue seems to be specifically in calling "callmypopup" function. For some reason it isn't passing the session id properly to the popup page, where it did fine in the other workspace. function text:
    function callMyPopup (sourceItem, popuppagenum, targetItem, appid, appsession) {
    //opens popup pg and passes value in sourceItem to targetItem
    //sourceitem=calling text box, targetItem=text box in popup page
    var minlength = 3;
    if (CheckLength(sourceItem, minlength))
    var formVal1 = document.getElementById(sourceItem).value.toUpperCase();
    var url;
    url = 'f?p=' + appid + ':' + popuppagenum + ':' + appsession + '::::' + targetItem + ':' + formVal1;
    w = open(url,"winLov","Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=800,height=600");
    if (w.opener == null)
    w.opener = self;
    w.focus();
    else {alert('Please enter at least ' + minlength + ' characters in your search.');}

    It looks like your session id is not correctly passed to your popup page. Try using:
    javascript:popUp2('f?p=&APP_ID.:1:&SESSION.:::::', 600, 700);
    instead, which does the same thing. Put your parameters for the page items there if required.
