XFCE: Audio CDs Not Mounted until Clicked in Thunar

Hello!
Audio CDs are visible in Thunar, but it seems they don't get mounted till clicked in the file manager - they show up then in Rhythmbox.
Is there any way to mount the CD automatically once put in the drive?
Thanks in advance!

Audio CDs don't show up in media players like Rhythmbox unless 'initialized' by clicking on the audio CD device entry in Thunar.

JTextField and JButtons not appearing until clicked.

I'm writing a program to refresh my CS1 java skills. For some reason when I try to add a JTextField and two JButtons to my container they don't appear until Ive clicked them.
Actually more specifically, this only happens after a 100ms wait after setting the frame visible. Any less and the components wind up visible, but scrunched up in the top middle of my frame.
Ive found that if I add the components before and after the wait they are visible and in the correct place, but this makes a noticeable flicker.
I'm running windows vista if that matters.
If someone could help me I would appreciate it.
snippet of code:
public scrollText()
     drawingThread.start();
     mainFrame.setSize(640,160);
     mainFrame.setContentPane(draw);
     mainPane = mainFrame.getContentPane();
     mainPane.setBackground(Color.white);
     mainFrame.setResizable(false);
     mainFrame.setVisible(true);
     try
          Thread.sleep(100);
          addInterface();
     catch(InterruptedException e){}
public void addInterface()
     textInput.setBounds(1,103,501,31);
     play.setBounds(502,103,65,30);
     play.addActionListener(this);
     stop.setBounds(568,103,65,30);
     stop.addActionListener(this);
     mainPane.add(textInput);
     mainPane.add(play);
     mainPane.add(stop);
}

Postings can't be moved between forums. Now you know for the next time.
The general form for building a GUI is
frame.getContentPane().add( yourComponentsHere );
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible( true );Then all the compnoent will show up according to the rules of the layout managers used.
However is you add components to the GUI "after" the GUI is visible then the components are not automatically painted. You need to tell the GUI to invoke the layout manager again so your code would be:
frame.getContentPane().add( componentsToVisibleGUI );
frame.getContentPane().validate();

Hi
I've made a pool game with textfields for chat with opponents, although the panel with the game in appears fine on the screen, but the panel with textfield, textarea, and scrollbar dont appear until you click on them.
Anybody got any ideas?

Audio CDs not showing up in iTunes...

When I insert an audio CD into my iMac (Intel) it appears on the desktop as "Audio CD" and iTunes opens but nothing appears in iTunes. I can drag the tracks from the Finder into iTunes to import them, but cannot make the CD mount in iTunes. Any Ideas?!?!?!?! (Also this is not just one CD it is happening with all CD's, store bought and burned)

In System Preferences, under CD/DVDs, check the setting for CD. It may not be set properly.
That is the only thing I can think of at the moment.

Premiere Pro CS6 - audio plugins not engaging until roughly 1 second into clip

This is a strange issue I've been having with Premiere CS6, running on a Mac Pro. Anytime I add effects to audio, whether it is denoiser, highpass, eq, etc, the effect doesn't engage until roughly 1 second into the clip.
It doesn't matter if I render it or export it. The problem still occurs. In the past my solution has been to drag the audio out past the 1 second threshold, apply the effect, export just the audio, bring it back into premiere, re-align the new audio and export. What a pain!
Definitely a problem I've never had with Avid or Final Cut! Does anyone know if there is a way to fix this problem?!

It's a long-standing bug with certain audio effects. Please do let Adobe know you want it fixed.

In the meantime, you should do that kind of work in Audition instead.

Audio CDs won't mount

Briefly, the problem is this: Audio CDs inserted into a drive will not mount, and the system refuses to eject them. DVDs and data CDs mount/eject properly. This isn’t a hardware problem, nor a problem with the CDs themselves. Problem disappears when the Mac is booted off a system install DVD.
*More details:*
• The CDs don’t show up as icons in the Finder.
• Disk Utility doesn’t see them either, but offers the eject button on the drive. When pressed, Disk Utility hangs for about 30 seconds, them comes back with an error: +‘Eject Failed. The disk “PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-109” could not be unmounted.’+
• The Terminal.app version of Disk Utility fails as well: +drutil tray eject+
• The keyboard eject button and the eject menu also fail.
• The only way to get the disc out of the drive is to reboot and use one of the various disk ejection techniques (e.g. holding down the mouse button).
• Discs inserted into an external FireWire drive behave the same way. The disc is locked in the drive by Mac OS X, and tray eject button on the drive is disabled. (Power cycling the drive, and hitting the eject button before Mac OS X scans the disc will eject it.)
• From Terminal.app, doing a +ls /Volumes/+ displays only the boot HD. df also fails to show audio CDs
• Logging out and into another account reproduces the problem (i.e. it isn’t a user preference file problem).
• When booted from a DVD, the problem goes away; returns when booted from HD. This suggests a problem with one of the Mac OS X system files.
• May be related to the fact that audio CDs usually mount with the generic name "Audio CD”
• fsck -f has been run
This problem occurred while ripping music CDs in iTunes. All of a sudden, the iMac refused to mount a music CD. After rebooting and freeing the CD from the drive, i discovered the iMac would no longer mount any other music CDs, including ones i had mounted only minutes before. So it isn’t a bad CD causing these symptoms. And since i have two drives, and the problem began occurring on both drives simultaneously, it’s not a drive hardware failure.
I believe Jay Chow, in this post, may be on the right track. But he doesn’t seem to know what’s causing the problem.
Has anybody solved this problem?
Please don’t suggest repairing permissions, resetting parameter RAM, and the usual “cure alls.” Clearly this is related to a system file on the HD. The drive checks out fine.
Thanks in advance.

Solved!
I made a costly mistake in my troubleshooting: Logging out, then into another account reproduced the problem, but rebooting and logging into a different account — without logging into the tainted account† — didn’t. A subtle but important difference (as that does imply a user preference/data problem, and exonerates the system files).
The culprit ended up being the Gracenote Media Database file: ~/"Library/Preferences/CD Info.cidb”
Here’s my guess about what’s going on: When an audio CD is inserted, the currently active user’s Gracenote Media Database is consulted. If the database is corrupt, it can poison system RAM. From that point on, "all bets are off" for all users until the system is rebooted.
For reasons i don’t recall, i also replaced the file: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist (I only mention this in case someone else having similar difficulties is reading this, and replacing the CD Info.cidb file alone doesn’t solve the problem.)
† I think you have to log into the tainted account and try to load an audio CD before the problem actually arises.

IMac (10.6.8) won't mount audio CDs, won't mount lens cleaner.

I'm on an iMac running 10.6.8 and recently I've had problems getting audio CDs to mount. I've gone into the iTunes settings as well and just asked it to "Show CD". I also purchased a Memorex OptiDisc lens cleaner, I read many suggestions on the community about trying that. It won't mount. It rejects it just like all other audio CDs, and ONLY audio CDs. I ran a permissions repair and tried to reset the PRAM (which may or may not have worked, not sure). What do I do?

I honestly don't know about the CDs issue. I noticed it last semester when I tried to play a Michael Jackson CD for a class assignment (we were analyzing songs from different time periods, and I got Quincy Jones). If it had started to prior to that I'm not sure, but I had to insert that CD about three times before it would mount. At that point I just riped it because I knew I'd be listening to it approximately 100 times, turned out to be a good idea. It quit on me completely when I was trying rip some soundtracks (which I am betting are sony since the films were releaed through sony), I got 3 of them done and then nothing. Which *****. And what't the issue with SONY CDs. if you don't mind my picking your brain furter?
I didn't hear a bong, but I think my earbuds were plugged in. Is there a special way of doing the PRAM reset with the wireless keyboards?

Super drive won't recognize audio CDs but will burn

Anything I can do about this?
When Audio CDs are inserted I will hear the drive attempting to load through several cycles then spit it out. Tried multiple CDs and CDs do work in CD player. ALL are original audio CDs not copies, cloned or burned. ALL are clean.
BLANK CDs will seat and allow me to burn through iTunes.
ALL DVDs load and play fine.
I feel like this suddenly happened but can't remember the last time I inserted an audio CD. I completely reformated (clean install) my HD last Thanksgiving, updated all drivers and programs I could find. (not sure about firmware for super drive but I think I found it was the lastest) I swear the CD ROM worked.
Got a new iPod at Christmas and it works fine. Itunes works fine!
Original Mac Mini and updated SuperDrive..... Info here:
I replaced original CD ROM drive with Super Drive about 4 years ago. There has never been a hardware issue. Clean install fixed random CD burn problem.
Super Drive:
PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-K06:
Model: PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-K06
Revision: 1.01
Detachable Drive: No
Protocol: ATAPI
Unit Number: 1
Socket Type: Internal
Machine Name: Mac mini
Machine Model: PowerMac10,1
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.2)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.42 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 167 MHz

Ditto for like 2 years.
I have the exact! same problem. A lot of people confuse similar drive problems with ours when diagnosing.
Here's what I have found out, although after 2 years, I haven't been able to completely fix it.
Something related to my login is corrupt or missing. If I log in under my wife's login, and insert the audio cd, everything is perfect. Then if I switch back to my login, everything is perfect for again. However every cd must still be inserted under her login.
I really with this additional post will help somebody who has had this actually answer. It isn't a drive problem, or itunes problem.... and clearly a complete re install of osx isn't necessary.

External drives will not mount if wi-fi is on

I was really unsure where to post this. If you think it should be in a different thread then let me know.
My problem is this. I have a Macbook that I use at home no problem. I teach at a college where there is a wi-fi connection that my Macbook automatically connects to. Recently, I have discovered that any external drives will not mount until I switch the wi-fi off. Additionally, almost everything I try and do causes the spinning beachball for 10 minutes or more at a time.
I have searched the net and cannot seem to find any reference to this problem anywhere else. Any ideas at all why this might be happening will be much appreciated.

It was not until Mac OS X 10.6.4, not possible to run on a 10.2 machine, that ExFat was supported.
Many older Macs also will not recognize GUID formatted partitions made to boot Intel Macs either.
10.2.3 is the first system to support Apple Partition Map HFS Extended (Jornalled).
There may be NTFS support based on my tip here:

Toshiba SD-R2212 drive read audio CDs only

Hi,
I have a problem with my combo drive Toshiba sd-r2212.
The problem is: my drive only reads audio CDs, not CD-ROMs or DVDs
My firmware version is: 1314.
Anyone could help me with this problem? I didn't find any solution at Google.

Hello
I believe it is an older ODD. Am I right?
Anyway, it is not easy to say what is wrong with this optical disk drive. If I say my car doesnt start why? what you can say? Probably not much without any precise checkup!
I dont know how old is your ODD but there is also possibility that the drive is defective. Usually at first the drive can not read DVDs but CDs. That is typical symptom for defective ODD. The laser calibration doesnt works as before.
Sorry but according to your short posting I can just say: the drive is probably defective and there is no much to do. Replacement is necessary.

I'm running Mavericks 10.9.3, updated iTunes earlier today, but although I can play audio CDs, DVDs will not play, any suggestions?

Hello there, tomazdes.
The following Knowledge Base article written for the USB SuperDrive, offers some practical steps to try when issues present themselves with particular content playback (feel free to skip Step 3 when working with an iMac or MacBook with built-in drives):
Apple Computers: Troubleshooting the slot-loading SuperDrive
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2801
Particularly:
Accepts discs but they don't mount or are automatically ejected
Make sure the drive is not placed upside down. The aluminum enclosure should be facing up as shown in section 1.
Check the disc's surface for scratches and dirt, since these things can prevent the disc from appearing on the desktop.
Connect the MacBook Air SuperDrive directly to the computer's USB port instead a USB hub.
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
Ensure your drive can read the specific type of disc being used. The System Profiler or System Information may provide additional information regarding what media your computer supports.
OS X Snow Leopard v10.6 or earlier: Open Apple System Profiler by choosing "About this Mac" from the Apple () menu. Then, click More Info.
OS X Lion v10.7 and later: Click the Apple () menu and then hold down the Option key. Choose System Information from the menu.
If the disc continues to not be recognized, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

New version of iTunes will not allow me to burn audiobooks to audio CDs

i just pruchased an audiobook from iTunes. as i've always done in the past, i went to burn an audio CD to back it up. i have did this with Diamond's 'Collapse' and was signaled that it would take multiple audio CDs. no problem. when i went to burn this new audiobook, i was given a warning that sometracks could not be burned to a single audio CD. no kidding? i clicked 'OK' and then was prompted that the tracks would not fit on one audio CD, but would require multiple discs, just as it had always been. no problem. so, i clicked 'OK' and waited, and waited, and waited... you get the picture. nothing happened. i tried it several times. same result. so, i can't burn my new purchase to an audio CD with the newest verion of iTunes. this is irritating because now i can't burn it to audio discs in order to listen to it in my car. why is this not working? i've also had issues with other aspects of the new version, but this is the most immediate problem. my last question went unanswered, so PLEASE someone help me out here since you can't go to iTunes for any help. thanks in advance for any assistance.

I think I've discovered what the new iTunes lets you do. You need to drag and drop a new playlist into the iPod. After about 10 tries at this, and 2 forced quits of iTunes as the screen froze, I finally saw my playlist listed under the iPod contents and the synching began. Then the iMac told me that synching was impossible as it couldn't find the device. No iPod connected! So now iMac shows no iPod attached, but iPod thinks its still synching. I'll leave it for an hour and see what happens.

I'm working with a Mac, with 10.10.2 system. My Audition program has been working fine for years now. But, there is a problem I can't solve. All my markers on a given piece of audio allows me to left click to highlight the time signature until my audio reaches the one hour point. From there on, the left click will not give me the drop down menu in order to copy and then paste into an Excel sheet I then have to submit for the proofing purposes. After the one hour mark, I can only control/c in order to highlight, then when I slide up to my Excel sheet, I'm able to right click and paste. Why is the program not, all of a su allowing me to left cllick the mouse and have a drop down menu give me the option to "copy, " as it does for any time signature markers up to 1:00:00.000?

Which version of Audition? With the latest version of Audition running on a Windows 7 machine I can't get a dropdown menu at all when I left click on the time in Markers List. The only way to do it is with cntrl-c.

Copying Audio CDs in not-iTunes format--how?

My MacPro has two optical drives, and I was trying to copy an audio CD from one drive to the other. (Of note, my Preferences do not specify iTunes as the program with which to open audio CDs.) As soon as I insert an Audio CD, all files on the CD seem to show up as iTunes files. When I drag them over to a blank CD and burn it (using the burn button on the blank CD's folder), they're burned as iTunes files. That's fine for computer-to-computer sharing, but if I want to listen on a car CD player, it wont recognize the files. So, how do I copy the songs in the original format without transforming them in any way? Thanks.

Hi Joseph,
You can create a playlist in iTunes as previously mentioned and then click the burn button at the bottom right hand side. It doesn't actually matter what format they are in, [from what I can tell/have experienced], as it will burn playlists in the .AIFF format anyway which is playable in the car or home audio system.
I have a mixture of AAC, MPEG & Apple lossless formats and even when mixed in a playlist they burn fine - and the same. Toast is an excellent program and does a great job of burning all-sorts so is recommended :0)
I only posted in case you were going to change the format of all your imported files to .AIFF before burning as it is time and space consuming!
Hope that helps?
Regards
B
