X230 Table doesn't detect DVD Multi IV Ultrabay Slim in UltraBase Series 3

We bought two X230 Tablets for two Professors of our University and I'm responsible for getting them ready to use.
Unfortunately the DVD burner isn't recognized in the UltraBase Series 3 that we intended to use together with the X230.
I tried it with both of the UltraBase units, with both X230 Tablets and with both DVD burner.
Did we buy the wrong devices? Is there any driver necessary?
The DVD burner is not listed at all in the device manager (Windows 7), not even with missing driver. I can't open the disc tray and the LED is not on.
Please help!!!

Try to set this in BIOS:
Security -> I/O Port Access -> Ultrabay (HDD/Optical) -> Enabled

DVD Drive doesn't detect DVDs on Satellite 1900-303

My CD-RW/DVD drive is refusing to play DVDs, acting as though there is no disc in the drive no matter what I try. I haven't used the machine regularly in a while and have just started to discover this.
It also has a problem with burning to blank discs, if that's of any interest. I've bought a lens cleaner but it will not work as the laptop still doesn't recognise the disc. Also, I've never fiddled with the region control, and have already tried re-installing the driver, but to no avail.
It's a S1900-303, model number PS192E-00G1N-EN.
Any help anyone can give is very much appreciated, this is really inconvenient.
Thanks a lot.

Hello guys
First of all if there are any problems with CD or DVD burning you have to test different CD or DVD. Not every CD or DVD is compatible and can be used in the drive.
Therefore check different CD/DVD from different manufactures.
But if the drive will be not able to burn or read any CD/DVD so I assume the drive has a malfunction and only the device replacement could help.
@Judith: You unit seems to be new and the warranty should cover the drive replacement.
But before contacting the ASP in your country check the different medias.
In the user manual you should find a list with compatible and tested CD and DVDs.

IMac doesn't take dvd's

Hello everybody,
my iMac (Intel, OS X 10.6.8) doesn't detect dvd's anymore. I can hear the disc spinning but after a while it will be rejected. It's the same with original dvd's and copies. What's wrong? I'd really appreciate any kind of help. Thanks already!

Apple has an article regarding troubleshooting this issue:
Apple Computers: Troubleshooting the slot-loading SuperDrive
It basically involves resetting the SMC. Beyond that, you'll probably want to get the computer in for service.

Replacing CDRW/DVD with DVD Multi

Procrastinator here. T60 2008-SAA with origninal CDRW DVD Ultrabay Burner installed.
Long time back, bought new DVD Multi III Ultrabay burner, never installed. This is my wife's prime computer for browsing and email, viewing photos, very little else, but it could use the Multi for the photos long term. About to install Windows 7 for continued use indefinitely.
Drive comes with Thinkpad install CD with now dated software, (Multimedia Center 9.05 and such as WinDVD 5.0.11). It is probably Vista based since produced in 2008. I guess all the necessary drivers for install are on there as well.
QUESTION: Should I risk installing this with the CD after the upgrade to Win 7? If not, would the necessary drivers be on TVSU ? I have not been able to track down anything for Win 7 except for a special instance of particular installs on specific computers, not the T60 unfortuantely. It seems like it should be eligible as the cost of buying this as an accessory included the install software with the special third party programs, like the WinDVD.
Thanks for any help you could offer on this.

Hello,
Generally speaking, any software that works under Microsoft Windows Vista is going to work fine under Microsoft Windows 7 as well. The few kinds of programs that do not are ones that make use of filter drivers, such as anti-malware software, some kinds of encryption software, tape backup software and other programs which directly access to hardware. In those cases, you do have to install the correct version of the program that works with that version of the operating system.
As far as DVD software goes, though, I don't think you will have any problems. I am not sure, though, if ThinkVantage System Update will see the updates for them (or if there are any, for that matter). If it does not, you will need to search Lenovo's support web site for the updates.
If you are concerned, you can always do a backup before installing the software onto the computer.

My Mac doesn't detect my windows DVD for bootcamp, help?

hi , i just grab my Windows 7 DVD for installing windows on Mac using bootcamp , but my mac doesn't detect my windows installation disc in boot menu... how to resolve?

You're not alone - I'm installed Windows (8 Pro 64-bit) on a MacBook Air Mid 2013 yesterday from the OEM/system builder media, and Boot Camp Assistant 5.0.4 didn't recognize the DVD. It asked for an .iso disk image instead, and I created one in a UNIX geek way**, but if you're an average mac user, you'll want to create one using the Disk Utility:
1) Open the Disk Utility. This is in the Utilities folder (go to a finder window and type command-shift-u)
2) Click on your DVD to select it.
3) In the File menu, select New -> Disk Image from "HRM_CCSA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV5"… (or your Windows disk title)
4) In the Save sheet, select Image Format: DVD/CD master. The Disk Utility saves this with the file extension/type .cdr, but this is the same file format as .iso. When the Disk Utility has finished, find the file you save and change the file extension to .iso.
5) Launch Boot Camp Assistant and select the .iso file as the source of your Windows installation.
Since I have a MacBook Air, the windows source was copied by the Boot Camp Assistant to a USB flash drive. MacOS X restarted and Windows was installed automatically, but the Boot Camp driver installer wasn't automatically launched at the end of the Windows install. I opened the flash drive's BootCamp folder and double clicked setup.exe.
Voila! The best trackpad anywhere! Network! Sound! Brightness control from the keyboard! The best Windows 8 computer!
** In Terminal: diskutil list; diskutil unmount /Volumes/HRM_CCSA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV5; sudo dd if=/dev/disk2 of=win8pro.iso. Use the output of 'diskutil list' to match your Windows 8 CD/DVD to a disk# for the 'dd' command. Be very careful.

Firmware update on DVD Multi Burner gone bad

Hi all,
I just downloaded and tried to update the ODD in my T510, but during the update it just went "FAILED" (despite I followed the instructions to the letter) - and now the ODD is lighting up as a christmas tree all the time. The thinkpad can still detect the drive, so I can reflash the unit, but there is 3 possible firmware files - which one is the correct one?
Firmware
Quote:
GT30N LT10 Serial Ultrabay Enhanced
GT30N LG10 ThinkPad SL410, SL510, L412, L512
GT30N LE10 ThinkPad Egde 14", 15", E40, E50
Now - is it the LT10, LG10 or LE10 I need to reflash with?
I know for a fact that the unit is the GT30N, pulled it out and confirmed it (also the device manager says it is)
The lenovo update utility does not provide me the option anymore to flash the unit sadly.

DVD media drive cannot detect DVD\s and CD's

don't know why and how my dv6725ee DVD media drive doesn't detect some blank imation DVD's and CD's whereas some genuine games DVD's and genuine software were able to read. (tried fifa 2008 and microsoft office 2007 small business) they are running well.
Please help

Even blank DVD or self burned DVD, they are not working at all.

Live Monitor doesn't detects my updates

Hello all
Been browsing arround the forums, but could't realy find this issue
Question #1
I have installed a brand new windows, and the first thing I installed was LiveMonitor ver 3. I leted LM (LiveMonitor) detect what drivers needing updates, DL:ed them and installed them. After several reboots I had installed them all I though . So I rerunned LM and did another autocheck, and I got exactly the same result!
I went in and checked the driver versions manualy in DeviceManager, and there all drivers look updated.
The system I have is:
MSI RS480M2-IL
AMD Athlon 3500+ (130nm)
2*512 MB kingston KHX3200UL HyperX (I can't understand if that is an OK mem or not)
Question #2
Should I be able to run a 64-bit OS on this machine? I tried both Microsoftand Novell (SUSE). The Linux fails initializing a table while mounting SWAP, and stands in a DoNothingLoop. Numlock and CapsLock works fine though. When trying to boot from MS 64 bit CD, the computer doesn't detect it sa bootable . I even tried DL and ISO , burned it and got the same problem
well, thanx in advance and

Live Monitor and Live update only properly detect MSI's own drivers. If you installed Windows without using the MB CD with MSI's drivers or got them from a site on the web other than MSI then they won';t be properly detected. No matter as most of the drivers at MSI or on the CD are dated anyways. Better to roll your own setup than to deal with older drivers.

Where is the driver for the LGE-DMGSA-U10N(B) DVD multi Burner.

Hello,
As far as I know, DVD±RW disc drives are automatically detected by Microsoft Windows XP and newer versions of Windows. Are you looking for the latest firmware? The latest update I could find for a T61 is here on Lenovo's support web site.

Mac doesn't detect the hard drive

Hello, my Powerbook doesn't detect the Hard Drive (tryied restarting, tryied Disk Utility from DVDs)... Yesterday and some days before I heard some clicking noises coming from the PB.
I'm still under Apple Care coverage, I think they'll remplace it for me (won't they?), but the most important thing: does anyone knows if the data on the hard drive can be restored??... And if Apple Care will try to restore it or it will just remplace the Hard Drive?... do I have any other option?
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1.5Ghz 512MB 80GB Superdrive

Here's some answers. Everyone else here chime in if I'm wrong!
Apple Care will replace the drive (unless they determine you killed it by intentionally abusing the PB itself, very unlikely).
Apple Care will not transfer any data they find to a new drive, just replace it and very likely load a default Software Configuration.
Here are some options. In both cases, be READY to start copying data the INSTANT the drive is recognized. If it comes up at all...
- Restart the PB in Target Disk Mode by holding down the "T" key during the bootup process. If you can get the PB to load as a Target Disk, you can plug it into another Mac and copy off your files (or clone it if you want to get more advanced)
- Have a local shop remove the hard drive and replace it with a new one. Reload the default software yourself, then put the original malfunctioning drive into an external firewire/USB case to see if it's still salvageable.
Yeah, clicking noises from a hard drive are never good. I've had a couple drives go bad on me, and was lucky enough to have time to backup real quick - biting nails all the way. Let us know how you're doing with the repair,

How can I print from iPad to a Brother printer with a TP-link tl-wps510u connected to it without using a computer? It doesn't detect the printer.

I have a Brother printer that doesn't have wifi, but I bought a Wireless Server Print to connect to it. I want the iPad can print directly to the printer without using a computer, but the iPad doesn't detect the printer. Is that possible?

javigomez88 wrote:
I know that Brother has an app that works with its wireless printers, even if they are not airprint. My printer isn't wireless, is a wireless print server attached to the printer what is able to make this printer wireless. Could this app be a solution or only would work with the wireless Brother printers?
The Apps usually only work with wireless printers, though if its free, there is no harm in trying, and see if it gets picked up, but its doubtful, as the print server would need to transmit in the same protocol the Brother Print App is expecting from the supported wireless printers.

Optical Drive doesn't read DVD's

Hi, I own an HP Pavillion dv7 1279wm entertainment laptop. It came installed with Vista, but I installed a free upgrade to Windows 7 that I got from HP. I had a problem where the drive would not read anything; the disc would spin, but eventually the tray would automatically open and tell me to insert a disc. After using Microsoft FixIt, I was able to read CDs, but encountered the same problem when trying to load a DVD. Previous to using Microsoft FixIt, I did use device manager to uninstall the drive and then reboot so Windows 7 would automatically update the driver. I'm thinking that means that it's not a software problem, but if you can think of anything else I can do (short of swapping out drives because I don't have access to another drive) to rule out it being a software problem please let me know. I realize that combo drives typically use different lasers to read CDs and DVDs, so my guess is that the laser that reads DVDs has failed. If that is the case, where can I find the correct replacement part and how do I install it?
Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
If you eject the optical drive tray, you should see just one laser situated towards the centre of the tray - different voltages are applied to this depending on whether it's reading a CD or DVD.
First of all, use a soft, non abrasive material such as cotton or a cotton bud and gently clean the lens.
Check if this has made any difference.
If it still doesn't read DVDs, try following the procedure under the sub-heading 'Let me fix it myself' on the link below to remove the Upper and Lower filters, restart the notebook and see if this helps the issue.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982116
If it still doesn't read DVDs, the following procedure will test if your notebook can start from a bootable disc in the optical drive - the advantage of trying this is that it will rule out any possible Windows driver error as the CD/DVD drive is under the control of the Bios when starting the notebook. So if you find that the notebook will not boot from the DVD, then it's almost certainly a Hardware fault in the optical drive itself and it will need to be replaced.
Using another PC to create a Windows 7 Rescue DVD. Download the relevant ISO from the link below.
Windows 7 32bit
Windows 7 64bit
You need use an application such as ImgBurn to correctly burn the ISO to a DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. Once created, insert the DVD and then restart the notebook and see if it boots from this disc - if it does, let the first screen come up ( this will show repair options etc ) then just remove the DVD and restart the notebook. If the notebook will not boot from the DVD, it may just load straight into Windows.
