Why can't national instruments software recognize my CEC GPIB card.

I am trying to use national instruments software with a plug and play cec (Capitol Equipment) PCI GPIB card. The device shows up (as working properly) in device manager. I also downloaded and installed new drivers from the CEC website. However National Instruments software does not recognize the card's existance.

What NI software are you trying to use and what drivers from CEC did you install? Low level NI functions like ibwrt, ibrd, or LabVIEW GPIB functions only work with NI boards. If CEC provides a VISA installation, you should be able to use that and NI VISA calls. Otherwise, you'll have to use the CEC functions.

Why can't I install software for AirPort Extreme 802.11n while running Mountain Lion OSX?

Why can't I install software for AirPort Extreme 802.11n while running Mountain Lion OSX? The installation CD simply says that the software can't be installed while running this OSX.

Mountain Lion already has the most recent, updated version of AirPort Utility installed on your Mac. The version on your CD is out of date, so you can trash the CD.
Look in Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility.

Why can't I communicate with both of my GPIB devices?

I have 1 NI PCI GPIB board in my computer
I have 2 identical devices (keithley 237) connected one at address 15 one at address 16
and 2 different programs one program to connect with 15 and 1 to connect with 16
after I tell the 1st labview program to communicate with 15 then I tell the 2nd labview program to communicate with 16. then both communications come back with error device timeout. one at a time, I can communicate find with either device.
Why can't I communicate with two different GPIB devices at the same time?

Hi mrutter,
first I would try some other addresses, e.g. 5 and 11. 15, 16 could be
a special address used by the controller.
Are there any other devices on the GPIB? If so then there could be
another instrument with the same ID. Do both (or all) devices show in
MAX, and can you communicate with them in MAX (e.g. query a *IDN? )
And are you sure that you *have* setup the correct addresses in the
Keithley instruments (look in the manuals if you don't know how to
change their addresses)? Some Keithley instrument are in local mode by
default, and you must explicitely set them in GPIB mode.
Sometimes, GPIB message termination can be an issue (although both the
GPIB cards and the instruments seem to get more tolerant of this).
Also, you must be very careful not to mix different versions of
LabView drivers and LabView version. I once had three different
LabView versions on a PC, it was terrible. We had to format the
harddisk and start afresh since we couldn't remove all of the older
versions.
I first try all GPIB instruments in MAX. If all devices appear there,
and I can query commands in MAX, then I usually write my own LabView
drivers with the standard GPIB-read and -write VIs. I write them with
my oldest LabView version (say 5.1), then I am sure they will work
with all versions up to 7.1
Actually I once had a project where *no* GPIB instrument worked 100%.
We could never really find out what was the problem (it was probably a
bad PC <-> Win98 <-> GPIB card <-> LabView 5.1 constellation).
Good luck.

Why can't the Instrument Wizard detect my GPIB instruments?

My system has the AT-GPIB/TNT card. I can detect the GPIB instrument connected to the card with "Measurement & Automation" but when I go into Labview Instrument Wizard and try to find the GPIG instrument, all I see is Serial ASRL1 and ASRL2. What can I change so that I can detect the GPIB instruments in Instrument Wizard? I've tried everything. I have NI 488.2 v1.60 installed and NI VISA v2.01. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Make sure that you check the box next to "GPIB" on the second screen of the instrument wizard. Also, make sure that what you are seeing in Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) is the most recent case (refresh your screen). It is possible that the instrument is offline, but since MAX doesn't automatically refresh everytime a change is made, it may appear that the instrument is still being detected.
The following link may help.

Why can't Firefox addons website recognize I'm using Firefox 5?

I have been using Firefox 5 for some months now, but since last week, Firefox addons website doesn't recognize it as Firefox 5. For example, every time I try to install recently updated theme, there is a message saying it is "Not available for Firefox 3.5.8". Even this page where I'm typing my question now, where you say "We've made some educated guesses about your current browser and operating system", Firefox version shows 3.5.8, and Operating system shows Vista, but I'm using Win7. Why is this happening? Can you, please, help me?

Why can't I receive software updates for my Nokia ...

I live in Singapore, and I heard that Nokia has released a software update for Nokia 6121 classic, which is version 5.11. My version is as follow:
V 04.09
21-09-07
RM-308
Nokia 6121c AP11.01
But when I tried updating my software using Nokia Software Updater, it says my firmware is already up-to-date. I even tried checking for software updates for my phone on the 'Can I update' section, but it says the same thing: "Latest firmware: 04.09". Why is that so? I will provide extra details about my phone:

Why can't my my computer recognize an inputed wired xbox controller?

Hi,
I connected my wired Rockcandy xbox controller to my macbook pro. The controller is brand-new, just out of the box. I have tattiebogle downloaded, but my computer/tattlebogle won't recognize that I have it connected. Should I just wait it out, or is anything I can do?

I am having the same issue. I have 2 drives in my computer. The old drive connects iTunes to my external, no problems. I cannot get the Vista drive to connect at all. I have changed the path to the external, but nothing is loading. Any advice? I have over 80 GB in my Library and do not have the room on the VIsta drive, but am getting really tired of having to restart my computer everytime I want to change some music.

Why can't I update software for my Airport card?

I have an iMac (5,2) with a 1.83 GHz processor and 1 gig of memory, running OSX 10.5.8.
It;s a great machine but I need wireless-n and wanted to install the enabler. I checked all the requirements, which I met, and paid for it on the Apple Store.
Directions said to first install AirPort Extreme Update 2007-002, then AirPort Extreme 802.11n Enabler in that order.
I meet all criteria for these updates as given on Apple site, but I keep getting a message that my computer does not "meet requirements for this update."
The Network tility definitely shows that my Airport Card is only enabled for a/b/g, so I'm completely puzzled here == don't know why this updatw on't take. Can anyone help?

And... someone e-mailed me last night to say that I have the only Duo 2 Core Intel iMac model ever manufactured that CAN'T use the wireless-n enabler. This is very frustrating -- basically that machine was outdated the second I bought it, brand new, because other machines being made at exactly the same time had that capability. Grrrr, arrgh.
Basically, this wireless-g machine is slowing down the resat of our wifi network when it logs on.
So far it also looks like there is no way for me to replace/upgrade the Airport Extreme card in my machine to one that uses wireless-n. Does anybody know of a way to do this that I haven't been able to find?

I am trying to install software. I keep getting error message: 1008:9,-5000 Access denied Error. Plus: "You don't have enough access privileges for this installation." I have Administration privileges on MY machine. So, why can't I install software on it?

The machine I am trying to install on is a MacBook Pro. The software is for an IRIScan express 2 scanner. It says (and provides a disc containing the software) it is compatible with Mac OS.
In System reqirements it states the following:
This is the minimal system configuration required to use Readiris:
a Mac OS computer with a G3 processor.
the operating system Mac OS X version 10.2 (“Jaguar”). Earlier ver- sions of the Mac OS operating system are not supported!
110 MB of free hard disk space.
I have no idea what (nor where to find out if it has) a G3 processor is. My machine has Mountain Lion. Is this "above" or "below" "Jaguar"?
Any assistance will be appreciated.

I'll try Silverfast.
Err... Try VueScan first. VueScan have one-for-all software, Silverfast - lot of modules for specific scanners. If they not have version for your specific scanner - no chances.
VueScan works with at least some IRIS models: http://applejac.typepad.com/applejac_macintosh_users/2009/05/vuescan-universal-s oftware-image-capture-tool.html
And I see 10.7-10.8 support on IRIS page: http://www.irislink.com/c2-1628-189/Mac-OS-compatibility-support.aspx

Why can't I install software as an administrator when I'm signed in as administrator?

I just bought some software (Spector Pro), dowloaded it and am trying to install it on my MacBook Air. I get the message that I need to be an administrator to install it. But I checked in System Preferences and I am signed in as Admin. I have already run Disk Utility to repair permissions, but the same thing keeps happening. Anyone know what the problem is?

Run the

User Account permissions are different from those fixed by Disk Utility.
If that doesn't work.
Are there other Admin's on the machine? Log into the other(s) and try installing again.

National Instrument Software Crashing VXI Processor

Everytime I work with MAX v3.0 the Windows 2000 based VXIPC-872B that I have crashes. Upon recovery, the Event Viewer says that " The computer has recovered from a bugcheck located at 0x00000076 (0x00000000, 0x822df8e0, 0x00000001, 0x00000000) Microsoft Windows v15.2195 ..." It goes on to say that a memory dump has occured. What is causing this? How can I fix this problem?

Hitman-
The 872B is a normal PC in a different form factor. So the fact that it is VXI is not going to cause this problem. Have you already tried repairing your MAX installation? It is possible if there was an error during the initial installation that something like this might occur. What hardware are you using with the VXI Chassis? Does this problem occur even when the chassis is empty? Sometimes these types of problems occur when HW conflicts are present.
I hope this helps. If you are still seeing the problem, let me know which other NI drivers you are using, and specifically, which one installed MAX 3.0 that you are using.

Why can't Apple's software engineers fix this stupid problem?

Why can't I register for itunes U without giving card details if the content is free?

Why do Apple need to keep my credit card details when I'm not purchasing anything?
I feel this is open to theft and abuse

The iTunes Store by demand of the content owners requires confirmation of your locality, something which is probably only possible by requiring a payment method issued in your country. Since iTunes U isn't a separate store from the rest of the iTunes Store, it's bound by the same mechanism even though you aren't buying anything.
You can either provide a credit card or prepaid iTunes cards, or you can set up an account by downloading a free app via the instructions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.

Why can't I use my ID without a payment card?

Does anyone know how I can use my AppleID without supplying a credit card number? After my recent *fun* with Sony's security holes I AM NOT GIVING MY CARD DETAILS TO ANY COMPANY UNLESS I HAVE TO.
Apple - There is no reason to ask for it until I want to purchase! I should be able to use the app store and itunes store with out this first. I do not know how secure your code is. I expect that you put as much effort into security as every other company. In my experience that is as little as possible. So please don't take this the wrong way, but **** no I am not giving out my card details. I'll buy an iTunes card with cash and use that, thanks.

Excuse me? I haven't bad mouthed Apple's business model. I like it. I think the app store is a great idea and should make them and the developers into a community that works for the greater good. I'm not quite sure I see where you think I bad mouthed them, but if you can show me that I'd happily retract any erroneous statement.
I'm going to assume that you are referring to 'I suppose this goes to demonstrate the lack of a customer focus for their company.' For anyone that has been in IT since before it was cool and before the iPod revolution, they will remember and see that customer care is not Apple's strong point. Their strong points are excellent hardware, an excellent and efficient and secure OS. Every company has its good and bad points. Those of us that can objectively inspect and review these are the better off for the knowledge.
Also, I welcome intelligent feedback far better than blind optimism. In short my issues are:
1: Their docs say I should be able to sign-up and use the app store without supplying *ANY* financial information prior to wishing to purchase. This is as *any* shop.
2: Since the incident I have mentioned, I will not put my credit card details into any site. This should not prevent me from purchasing as I can obtain iTunes cards at any number of retail outlets pretty much anytime of the day or night.
I will admit that people suggesting with no concrete proof that I put my card details / PIN / personal information anywhere will arouse my frustrations. Although I should in some ways thank people that do because if there was only good advice I'd be out of a job pretty quickly. I'd actually have to go work for a living instead of being the one (usually) handing out the fix to people who have hit trouble.
My only reason for posting was to find any answer that met my criteria:
Accessing and using the App store.
Not inputting my card details or shelling out money until I want to buy.
I was not looking to be evangelised to. I have already bought a Mac. I love it. I love the interface. I love the long battery life. I love the wireless capability (good signal and speeds). It is however a tool to do what I want and not a religion. I personally pity those who are insecure enough in their choices to need to convince others of their opinions. You will notice that I backed up my comments with external references to ensure that this was not just my opinion. I would hope that this would make you read the articles and consider any effects this might have on you and your decisions. However beyond that if you are happy to supply your information that is your choice and I would respect that. It would be an informed decision. I would be happy to receive similar information from you. If you have any links like 'Apple's store unhackable, security tests show' etc I would be very happy to read those. If you have any links to a data retention policy from Apple I would also read it and weigh that in with my other deciding factors.
I welcome helpful and reasoned feedback. In fact the best answer on her I received was the 'There is no 'other way' you are deciding that you will not use Apples online stores because you disagree with their authentification methods, and that is your right.' comment which was accurate, informative and helpful if not what I wanted to hear / read. So far this is the approach that I have used to work around this issue. It would be nice to find an answer that did lead me to being able to use the app store in a way that makes me comfortable, but without cited references and details this seems increasingly unlikely.
You will have to excuse my skepticism with regards to security. As I have said this is my experience with large enterprises and Apple is most likely no different. It is not a comment on their business model. It is a comment more on the capitalist world and its nature to devote most of its money and efforts towards profits and share holders rather than its customers, community, employees, quality of products. It is not that Apple or any of the other businesses wouldn't like to, but it costs more and in this world that means the time and efforts go to the revenue streams security only costs companies money. Usually much more than they would lose otheriwse so it is secondary. It is not Apple's, or Sony's or any other corporations fault. It is ours as consumers and individuals. It is yours and mine for not demanding the quality. For not demanding the security. For accepting the capitalist world as it is. Now to dispell your assumptions that I am a communist (although that is much misunderstood anyway) I have my own businesses that are mature, with happy customers and I earn a good enough living. It doesn't mean I want to throw my hard earned away because I didn't take all reasonable precautions to protect it. Maybe you have enough money that you can just not care. Maybe it has come to you without effort. Maybe none of this is accurate. I have had to work extremely hard for mine. I would prefer to side with the safer option and perform my due dilligence before I choose another option.
Maybe you could share the information that you have that I am clearly missing. I would indeed like that and it might help me more than fatuous comments and unsubstantiated comments?
