X58-PRO-E, RAM is not recognized

I am assembling an X-58 PRO-E, I7-920, RAM Kingston 3x KHX1600C8D3K2/4GX, (6 chips), Diamond 5770, ps Antec Quattro 1000, case Antec 900, 3 x Hitachi 1TB SATA in RAID 5
On boot up it shows only 4GB, should show 12GB, WIN 7 x64 shows 4GB, MSI Overclock tools shows all 6 chips and 12GB, BIOS @ 870 in bios it shows 4GB, in MemoryZ it shows 12GB and all 6 chips, they all look identical.
Swapping the RAM to all different slots does not change the results
Booting with any combination of 3 chips shows 2GB of RAM installed
Is this:
A compatibility issues with the RAM ?
B defective mobo ?
C some other issue ?
Thanks,

Default memory speed is 1066. With BIOS version A7522IMS.870. the motherboard will post with the memory at 1333 & 1600.
You may be on the right track, the memory may not be compatible, although it does seem that the packages of 1, 2, or 3 chips all contain the same chips just a differnet quantity.
Kingston does not list 1600 speed chips as compatible
Kingston lists the following memory as compatible:

My new HDD for Macbook pro 13" unibody is not recognized and I am using a new SATA cable

Hey everyone,
I have a particular problem that I cannot seem to find an answer to. My new 500gb internal drive for my Macbook Pro 13" unibody is not recognized. The old HDD broke on me so I bought a new one but my macbook pro would not recognize it. To troubleshoot that issue I purchased the SATA cable and replaced the old with the new. The new HDD still will not show up in disk utility.
Please let me know what you think I may have missed or should do.
Thank you

jc1388,
Bring it to an Apple store Genius bar (make an appointment, so you don,t have to wait around forever) they will diagnose it for free and tell you your options/pricing. They have more extensive testing tools, maybe your logic board is failing/failed.
best of luck

RAM upgrade not recognized on MacBook Pro

i have an
I have a MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz (2008). Max RAM capability is 4GB. I know I bought the right config (2x 2GB) but only one is showing up under About this Mac. I'm a novice at such this sort of thing and would appreciate any help I can get. My poor Mac is slower than before. :-(

Have you bought the right type of RAM? Note that your Mac requires 667MHz DDR2 RAM. What you can try is to swap the memory modules (put the RAM module you have in one slot in the other one, and so on) to see if this is a problem with the slot or with the module.
If the problem only happens with one RAM module, I would recommend you to return that RAM module and get another one.

Why isn't my macbook pro 10.6.7 not recognizing my network automatically?

My macbook pro 10.6.7 is not recognizing my home network automatically and instead sings me on to another network when I open my mac. How can I correct this? it wasn't doing this before.
thank you.

In system prefs you can go to network, you will see airport listed, go to the advanced setting and make sure remember networks you have joined is checked. You can also remove networks you do not want your Mac to join. You can also check to automatically find networks. As well, you can reconfigure your network by choosing the assist me option.

MSI X58 Pro: HDD LED does not work for S-ATA drive

Hi,
I've got a problem with my brand new MSI X58 Pro: I've got an S-ATA HDD (Samsung 640GB) and an S-ATA DVD drive (Pioneer) installed in a Compucase 6X Miditower. There is NO(!) IDE drive. I don't get the HDD LED to work! I've tried everything including a BIOS update to 7.1 - the LED stays out.
I found some reports in the internet from people having a similar problem: no HDD LED for S-ATA drive activity.
Is there anybody else having this problem? Isn't that possible in general? Is that a problem of the board? The HDD drive?
Greetings,
Michael

You are talking about the status LED on your case, right?
- Is it properly connected to the right pins on the correct header?
- Double-check for +/- pins and make sure the plug is not connected the wrong way.
- Make sure, the LED is not defective.
- Make sure the cables are not defective.
- Make sure there is no problem with the pin-plug to the board.

Macbook pro mid 2012 is not recognizing I tb internal HDD

I recently purchased a mid-2012 15'' macbook pro, 2.3 ghz, 500 gb HDD, 4 gb RAM. I took it into a service last weekend to have it upgraded to 8 gb RAM, 250 GB SSD Samsung, and a 1 TB HDD HITACHI 5400 rpm. Everything was fine until yesterday when suddenly the computer stopped recognizing the I tb HDD. You can see it in disk utility but the disk drive is just shaded gray. This morning I noticed that when I start the computer with only the battery it doesnt recongize the HDDD but when the charger is plugged in and start the computer the disk is recongized but a window pops up saying that I can access the files that are on the disk but no changes can be made and nothing can be saved onto the disk. It also says the disk needs to be reformatted as soon as possible. Could this be the SATA cable problem? Or a power shortage? Or something with the motherboard?

Apple could have disabled what option?
Replacing the Superdrive with a hard drive, that's not a factory configuration.
That it doesn't work on battery and only on power is a obvious sign it's drawing too much current and the Mac will tend to disable things that are.

Final Cut Pro Sudio 2 Camera not recognized

I have Panasonic Model No. PV-GS400 camera. Its recognized in I Photo but not in Final Cut Pro suite 2. Is there a way to change any of the settings to capture camera in Final Cut Pro? Stock Doc

Try changing your capture presets to one that matches your camera, and of course make sure your camera is in VTR/VCR mode. Make sure you are using Firewire.
If this doesn't work, run through the regular trash prefs, repair permissions, etc.

Ram upgrade not recognized

i just bought two one gig sticks of ram from 18004memory.com and after removing the two 512 sticks i had and putting in the two one gig sticks, i wasnt really noticing much of a difference. when i click on the apple in the top left corner and select 'about this mac' it still lists ram as 1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. im like 90% sure i have installed these correctly and i mean, the computer works and all, but why wouldnt it recognize the upgrade? any ideas?
i called apple and they had me turn off the computer and hold appleoption+pr on start up which didnt help and to change something in the power (while it was off, hold down the power button for like five seconds) which didnt help either.

Likely, either one of the RAM sticks is bad or it is not seated correctly. You can try removing and replacing the sticks in turn to see which stick is bad and eliminate the possibility that a slot is damaged.

Final Cut Pro 5.1.2 not recognizing HDV deck

I have tried a couple different Sony HDV decks and my Final Cut won't seem to recognize them. I have made sure all the A/V settings are correct, i have restarted the software and the deck. Everything is set to 1080/60i, and it still won't recognize it. Any help please?

Welcome to the forum!
You'll get good advice here and it's worth a visit even if you don't have a problem - you'll learn a lot from reading the posts.
This is a good workaround for curing your camera recognition problem with FCP (if that's what it is):
First, check that your Easy Setup / Timeline / Camera or Deck Settings are all exactly the same, then making sure your camera or deck is in VTR mode, try to capture again.
FCP uses a different form of QT than iMovie for capturing, so if the camera works in iMovie (or if it's listed in System Profiler) but not FCP, it obviously means your Mac can see the VTR but FCP can't, so you need to do this QuickTime fix.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301852
Follow the instructions carefully and you should have things running in no time - it's quite safe but you must Trash the Receipts AND re-install QT from the link provided.
If the Camera / Deck isn't recognised by iMovie or System Profiler, try resetting the Firewire Bus . . . Turn off the Mac and disconnect the power and all Firewire cables. Leave it for 30 mins then connect back up.
Still not working? Try a different Firewire cable.
Failing all this, try resetting the PMU (Power Management Unit). The method varies from machine to machine, so visit the Apple site and search for it in support.
Don't use iMovie for capturing - it doesn't give you a timecode and that's very important.
Let us know how you get on!

MacBook Pro 10.6.8 not recognizing usb camera connection any more

Worked fine for ever. Just stopped seeing usb connection to camera. Other usb devices show up. How do I get it to recognize camera?

Solution!
I tried everything short of installing/re-installing anything. What worked was, I started a new user account. The camera showed up and I could import photos. But better yet, when I went back to my own user account, magically the camera usb connection showed up there, too, and harmony was restored to my universe.

New Mac Pro owner, headset mic not recognized, help needed.

I feel like this is a really stupid question but I'm a mac from pc convert.
I recently got a copy of Rosetta Stone and need to use headset and mic. Rosetta Stone uses voice recognition for training skills.
I am able to get sound through headset but during mic setup nothing. Under system pref/sound I have input at line in/audio line input. Output I have set at headphones/builtin output.
Mic test is negative. Can anyone help me with this??
Thanks.

I am sick and tire using Skype with the speaker on my iMac. I don't see any point spending $100 for a headset with mic.
Are you suggesting that as long I get a USB based headset it should work with the Mac? and no need to install any drivers.
Is there anything specifically that I should be looking when shopping for a headset.
The Microsoft LifeChat is only for Windows how could it work with the Mac, please clarify it for me
thanks

MacBook Pro 2007 battery not recognized, not charging but working

I recently bought a new battery for my MacBook Pro 2007. As said in the title, it seems to work alright, but it's not recognized by the computer (X in the battery icon), and I don't think it's charging.
I tried to reset the SMC, no change. Unfortunately, I don't have any other computer to test my battery and my powercord on, to see if it's coming from either one of them. And I don't have an Apple Store around.
Do you have any suggestions ?

Macbook Pro not recognizing Windows 7 RC 32-bit disk

I'm trying to install Windows 7 RC on my Macbook Pro but it's not recognizing the disk. Does anyone know why this is?

ucbound,
I replied in my post to your same question as well.
Are you using Boot Camp Assistant to set-up for a clean install of Windows 7 RC:
Start Boot Camp > Create Windows partition > insert Windows DVD > click 'Continue' after DVD icon shows on desktop?
Or are you receiving the error message after clicking 'Continue' in Boot Camp Assistant?
Others here are more experienced with the MacBook series so hopefully they will chime in at some point if it is an in-depth issue / resolution here.

HT202274 Password change old password not recognized after 10.9.5 upgrade

God bless you, peace.
macbook pro 2012 user password not recognized after 10.9.4 too 10.9.5 upgrade plus tech work at apple.
I want to change user password, it is allowing me to get into user account and admin account on computer but I recently changed it for the tech work to be done. I would like to put the password back now to old password or a new one but... The few days old new password pre update and pre tech work is not being accepted to allow me to change to another password.
recent update, after 10.9.4 to 10.9.5 update and apple tech work done.
1. Tech work replaced optical drive,
2. 10.9.4 to 10.9.5 upgrade left computer endlessly booting up, then got into finder window tried to read backup drive and screen went to black curser and could not backup information as techs decided may need to be done before I left it with them.
3. Also track pad was not (is not again) selecting text to drag unless real hard press and then only intermittently would select text or just drop the selection (not hold the selected text after a long scroll select, did work at first after tech work but back to not working). It is still not responding easily when pressed, but it is much better, as they did something with software they said. Today While typing this I am trying to select words misspelled and it does not select them unless I press not as hard it is becoming the same as before I see now, sometimes less pressure is needed but more than should be used.
I noticed today after tech work The Spell check is not responding with a two finger tap on the red underlined misspelled words without multiple try's with two finger tap. The curser moves around after selecting words also, or when selecting words so hard the curser moves to another place not on the desired words or check box. The curser arrow tip should select the word but it does not recognize unless I put the tail of the arrow onto the word then it recognizes the misspelled word for spell check on two finger gesture.
It looks like I need to take it back, I tried to call and check to confirm if the track pad intermittently and curser adjustment was serviced. In order to verify I had called three times to get that information to no avail. endless looped in the phone que, one would answer take info and then forward me to a endless loop dial ing phone that never was picked up, supposedly at the Bay street store tech section. Phone voice mail from apple support status on the repair, ...Juliano from Bay Street Apple repair store Emeryville, ca left a voice message... just generically said optical drive replacement is successfulI, I noticed right away three items were to be addressed but only the optical drive was mentioned, so I called three times to try and verify the other problems. One whole minute just to select this text and copy it to notes for a backup. It would not select at first, then after selected it would not copy it, then it would not paste to notes, it paste the last cut and paste I did 10 minutes ago.
I do not have a easy excellent wifi connection for my wifi only phone and would prefer email or chat for repair help. apple Repair No: R142180337

Try running the combo update. It fixes more files/data than the App Store upgrade.
