Xserve unlocked but still not recognizing usb peripherals

I have an Xserve which does not recognize any usb attached peripherals, even though it is unlocked from the front panel.
In addition the PC monitor is also not recognizing it, and get no video output on it.
Has anyone else experienced the same issue? How to further diagnose/resolve this problem?

When I go to Disk Utility, my mac recognizes it, but when I try to repair and verify it says that it failed.
Sounds like it's very badly damaged, and it may be too much to expect the data to still be intact. However, you can try repairing it with a more powerful utility, like [DiskWarrior|http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/index.html] or [TechTool Pro|http://www.micromat.com>. If neither of those can fix it, then your only options will be using a data recovery tool, such as [Data Rescue|http://www.prosofteng.com> or [File Salvage|http://subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=1], or paying an expensive data recovery service to disassemble the drive and recover what they can.
Of course, this would all have been avoided if you had backups of your data. In the future, you must have a minimum of three copies of any data you don't want to lose.

  • IPOD nano in DISK MODE, but still not RECOGNIZED

    My Ipod Nano has stopped being recognized by my PC (Windows XP OS). After reading the discussion topics here I had a hope that after switching it to DISK MODE, the PC might recognize my Nano. However, it still doesn't. I hope the Wizrds out here rectify the problem I am facing with my IPod.

    Try restoring your iPod (in Disk Mode) from somebody else's computer. (This might replace everything on it with their music for the time being, but you already seem willing to wipe your iPod, so it should be OK.) If it works, then try to do the same thing again on yours. But the problem in this case would be not with your iPod but with your computer. Try reinstalling iTunes. If that doesn't work, then the issue is probably a more general one with your Windows installation and it may be difficult to find help here.
    If on the other hand your iPod won't restore in disk mode from ANY computer, then the only option I see remaining is to take it in for servicing.

  • HT4137 I have two iPad's that use the same iTunes/store account. I want the two devices to play games with with other, but it recognizes them as the same. I have set up two different iCloud accounts, but still not recognizing the users as different. What

    Hello, I have no idea if my question went out, so I'll post it again. I have two iPads (one 3rd gen and one 4th) that use the same iTunes/store account. I want the two devices to game with each other, but the apps recognize them as the same. I have created two different iCloud accounts in an attempt to differentiate between the two, but no luck. How can I continue to use the same iTunes/store account for music and movies, but also have the two devices recognize each other for games?

    You can share your iTunes ID and still have separate iCloud accounts with separate IDs, they don't have to be the same.  If you kids don't already have an iCloud account, have them set up separate accounts on their devices using separate IDs.  If they are already sharing your account, migrate their devices to separate accounts.  To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos they wish to keep to ther camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll.  If they are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to them so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in their new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from thier device and won't effect your device), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone (if using iOS 7).  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create their new account and choose Merge to upload the data.  Once everyone is on a separate account you can go to icloud.com from your computer, sign into each account separately and delete your data from their account.

  • IPod say's "Do Not Disconnect" but still not recognized. Please help!!

    Hi everyone.
    Ok here's my situation.
    Im using a MacBook Pro (Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5)
    iTunes 11.4 (64Bit)
    iPod 4th Gen. (White 20GB 'Click-Wheel')
    After doing a system restore on my ancient dinosaur ipod 4th gen. (the white 20GB 'Click Wheel') and 'upgrading' to iTunes 11 i've had nothing but problems.
    So now when i plug in my ipod it charges fine and even say's "Do Not Disconnect" *BUT* there is no 'on my ipod' button. I cant see my playlists, add songs, delete songs or anything! I just want to 'DOWNGRADE' my itunes and have everything how it was before. I find this to be a science project in itself and no amount of searching youtube videos gave me a clear answer, it only made me more afraid and confused of going forward with this.
    I tried downloading 'sharepod' for MacBook Pro but this is pointless because it needs itunes to recognize the ipod for it to recognize the ipod. Ehh.
    I did a 'system restore' on the ipod but when i went home where all my music is (on a windows PC) it said i have to do the restore again because it was restored on a MAC. So i did the restore again on my Windows PC (put all my music on it) and now i want to add songs from my MACBOOK Pro and its not even recognizing my ipod. Arrrgh the frustration i tell you!
    Im done doing the system restore and i just want to add playlists now. Why is this soo difficult? Someone please help a newbie out. Im great with computers and feel like i honestly should have never upgraded the itunes in the first place because i feel this is what is causing my problem. I've heard the older gen. ipods dont work as well with the newer versions of itunes although im not sure if there is any truth to that or is it just rumors. Either way can somebody please take me on a step by step of what to do next? Please with a cherry on top?

    Did you restart the Mac?
    Did you reset the iPod using the two button combo?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
    If the above do not work, try putting the iPod into disk mode, and then connecting it to the Mac.

  • Restored but still not recognizing 2 smart playlists previously stored

    I am having problems suddenly syncing my Nano which I have tried to solve by twice restoring it and then REsyncing. All playlists I have created previously synced just fine on all 3 of my iPods (1 of which is an iPhone). The problem I'm having ONLY is occuring on this Nano. Help!
    Here is message I get: "This smart playlist depends upon 1 or more playlists which cannot be found" and the caution symbol is displayed next to both SMART playlists in the Nano list of playlists in the DEVICE category.
    The caution symbol does NOT display next to those 2 SMART playlists in the "PLAYLISTS" category.
    These 2 SMARTplaylists contain items from both the MUSIC library and AUDIOBOOKS library and PODCASTS library in the LIBRARY category list and no "caution" symbol is displayed next to ANY other item than these 2 "SMARTplaylists" in the DEVICES category for this particular Nano.
    I have 2 other devices (iPhone and video iPod) and they have no problems whatsoever syncing fine with all these playlists (including the SMARTplaylists) and I HAVE ALREADY RESTORED THIS NANO 2 TIMES and that has not solved the problem.
    Help???!!!!

    Apparently Audible has a bug right now in their software that talks to iTunes. They informed me about this today thus is the root of the problem. They "are addressing it".

    I replaced the hard drive to a 30gig on my Ipod 4th gen. click wheel but it is still not recognized on my computer or in itunes......I get an error message with a folder and "!"....what can I do to fix??

    Have you recharge the battery for at least 2 hours, or just leave it connected for 4 hours?
    (When you replaced the Hardisk, you should also replace the battery.)
    Some other iPod SSD sites, says that you may have to format the CF in FAT32, as Mac dont read NTFS drive so if Windows is the 1st PC that your CF is connected, it may be formatted to NTFS.
    You can try erasing the CF using Disk Utilty, so that Mac can recognise it. (but not Windows)
    Have a nice day!

  • Ipod shows it is charging - but ipod not recognized by computer

    My ipod mini is dead when not connected to the USB cord; once my ipod is connected to the USB cord, it looks like the ipod should be charging, but both my computers (laptop & desktop) are not recognizing that the ipod is connected through the USB.
    I went to the store last night for service and the ipod genius told me it was probably my USB cord, since when he hooked up my ipod to his computer through his USB cord - it connected and needed to be reformatted.
    I went ahead and bought a new USB cord - but that didnt solve the problem. My computer is still not recognizing my ipod.
    Could anyone be of any assistance?
    It broke 3 days ago and I'm lost without it.

    Jersey, first off, it sounds like your battery must be almost dead (unable to retain a charge). If you are looking for quotes on having it replaced, I have found www.ipoddepot.ca to be very good and competitively priced.
    As for the ipod not being recognized, it seems there is a lot of that being reported here, without any satisfactory solution so far. It seems like all are with Windows XP computers and I am beginning to wonder if it might relate to recent Windows security updates? In fact I think I will troll around the Microsoft site to see if I can confirm that theory.
    As for taking it to a tech, I had exactly the same experience. The difference in result is due to the fact that he was plugging the thing into a Mac and not a Windows XP computer... Different software and environment, entirely!

    My I-pod shows up on my computer but is not recognized under devices in I-Tunes, any suggestions?

    Hey corky60,
    I'd go ahead and give the following troubleshooting steps a shot:
    1. Try the iPod troubleshooting assistant:
    2. Restart the iPod Service
    3. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
    4. Empty your Temp directory and restart
    5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
    6. Change your iPod's drive letter
    7. Remove and reinstall iTunes
    8. Disable conflicting System Services and Startup Items
    9. Update, Reconfigure, Disable, or Remove Security Software
    10. Deleting damaged or incorrect registry keys
    You can read more about each step in detail in this article:
    iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363
    I'd start at the top and work through the steps until iTunes recognizes your iPod nano.
    Take care,

  • I have got an IPhone 5. It has been locking itself  and not possible to run it again. I have restored it by Itunnes. But still not functioning. I have bought it from London whitecity applestore and have been using it in Turkey. Any suggestion ?

    Sorry, but the warranty for the phone is only valid in the country where you bought the device, and you can't send it in, Apple does not ship internationally.
    Has the phone been officially unlocked? Only the carrier can unlock an iPhone.

  • Iphone 5 was sent to get unlocked but 'sim not valid'

    My phone was given back to me on wednesday the 21st Januray after giving it to get unlocked on monday 19th january. The phone was locked to vodafone and now should be on giffgaff and unlocked to all networks.
    The guy said it can take upto 3-5 days for the phone to work with the new giffgaff sim, it is not the 5th day and it is still not working and it says
    SIM not valid - the sim card that you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iphone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact apple for more information.
    When i take the sim out, i am able to use the iphone in terms of going onto apps and only using wifi but it says no service due to no sim being in the phone.
    the carrier on the settings says giffgaff 17.0 which is why i think the phone should be unlocked but is not working
    i have been advised to 'reset network settings' but im scared this might lock the phone back as the phone is unlocked
    what do i do?

    Your iPhone has not been unlocked,the "guy" has hacked it to remove the Carrier lock and in doiung so has voided your warranty ,post warranty support and help from Apple or for that matter this Community
    The ONLY way to unlock an iPhone is for the Carrier who holds the lock to process the release and then follow this process
    How to unlock your iPhone for use with another carrier - Apple Support
    any other attempt involves jailbreaking the iPhone
    It seems in your case the hack failed .........................and has screwed your iPhone .
