• Problems with the Display Mode target on end 2009 27 "iMac

  Used late 2009 iMac 27 "in the view target in conjunction with a Dell XPS tower with i7 processor, Windows 7 and the best graphics card I could afford at the time connected by HDMI to mini display port cable.  Worked well for years.  Set aside Dell for a few months and the update of the iMac to El Capitan OS 10.11.3.  Recently tried old setup with same Dell PC and was able to move from Mac to PC, but the PC screen resolution was at the lowest setting. I got an error message when enabling/disabling to PC who said there was a problem with the port causing mini display of the system back to the lowest resolution. Impossible to reset at a higher resolution.

  I tested the Dell PC on another monitor, and it works very well at higher resolution (2560 X 1440). Now, when I reconnected it to the iMac (which works fine), the screen becomes black.

  Is it possible that the operating system upgraded (El Capitan) is not compatible with the targets using mini display port Display Mode?  Any ideas?

  Use your iMac as a display with the target - Apple Support Display Mode , also consider having a bad cable or connection. Does not hurt to try different cables, they can and will the bad!

• cannot enter in the Mode target Mac 10.10

  Hello

  I'm running OS X 10.10 and 10.9 of VMS in Fusion. When I try to enter in the Mode target system-> startup disk preferences, it has no listed target Mode option. And I can not enter in T-mode T pressed to start upward.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you!

  Hi ITMan01,

  Target disk mode is a feature provided by the firmware of the Apple system and does not part of Mac OS X.  We don't currently implement this feature in our virtual machine firmware, so target disc Mode is not available in a VMware virtual machine.

  Thank you

• iMac darkens when in display mode using target (TDM) and the lack of brightness slider!

  Hi all

  I use a MacBook Pro (13 "to end 2011) and iMac (27", by the end of 2012). Both are up to date, running El Capitan 10.11.5. They are connected with a thunderbolt cable in order to use the iMac as a second screen (TDM).

  Now, when I press CMD + F2 to the iMac, iMac gets used as second screen as expected, but it goes really dark! He's not black, you can still see the desktop but on a sunny day, it's really hard to see anything. Now, it's pretty embarrassing, but the second part of the question makes it a pain in the *. When the iMac is dark, I always go to the system preferences and open the settings for the display. I can see a window with the parameters for the iMac, but there is no cursor for the brightness! There is no way to make it brighter!

  The only solution is to disable the target (CMD + F2) just display mode to enable it again after a few seconds. Sometimes I have to activate the TDM twice but sometimes it takes 4 or 5 loops toggle just to see the brightness slider!

  Here is a screenshot of the settings without the cursor window

  

  And that's what it looks like after a few loops, and then I can adjust the brightness.

  

  Any ideas why this happens? Any advice on a possible solution? Why - what is darkening the iMac? Why is the cursor missing?

  Best,

  Stephan

  There are other topics on this issue, like the one below. One of the workarounds suggested is to use shades free app: http://www.charcoaldesign.co.uk/shades

• How much time does it take for my ipod to connect the itune after putting in disc mode?

  How much time does it take for my ipod to connect the itune after putting in disc mode?

  my ipod displays 'do not disconnect' for half an hour already, but my itune cannot always detect my ipod (as itune will pop up once I have connected my ipod normally).

  What is your real question?  Why you connect the iPod to your computer to disc Mode?

  In addition, it would be useful to know if you are using a Mac or a Windows PC?  If Windows, what version?

  If iTunes does not open automatically (when you connect the iPod), what happens when you run it manually?

• I did a reinstall on my XP. He cleaned the disc then says that he would reinstall. Now it is stuck in the Mode without fail.-"unable to load then reinstall it in safe mode, will restart"

  I had a lot of problems with my desktop computer, so I decided to do a reinstall.  I had to uninstall the old windows machine and then he tried to reinstall.  But the safe mode screen comes up and I get a message that 'could not load reinstall it so that in safe mode, recover to walk'.  He kekeps this and I have no way of getting to my Start menu or anything except f8, etc..  What can I do?

  You're not start from the disc. Check your bios settings to make sure that your cd rom device is set to boot first. Restart the computer. You must first see a screen that says "press any key to boot from a cd. Then you will see a screen that says "NTDetect inspects the hardware configuration of your computer. The screen you will see next will be "loading files". If you see all the other screens then you dΘmarrez not from disk. I'm not really sure of what you mean you got the machine to remove the old windows. The 'old' windows is deleted when formatting that is part of the installation process.

• Wizard BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  How is it assistant BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  This has two questions:

  1 capacity of SSDS faster for Fusion drive has been reduced. Therefore less effective for the reader of the merger. For example if I need to create a partition of 80G for my windows bootcamp partition, only 48 G will be left in the drive of the merger.

  2. ability of the bootcamp windows partition becomes very limited, cannot be greater than 120 G.

  3. even when I try to fuse out of the drive of fusion in the 128 G SSD and 3 TB of HARD disk, and then run the BootCamp assistant to create the bootcamp partition start from scratch to reinstall El Capitan only on the HARD drive (without drive Fusion), it won't let me do anything, it just shows an error that says something like "a person has created additional partitions on this drive please select. another disc. But there is nothing else to choose.

  Before my (5 K, 27 inches, end of 2014 retina) to El Capitan Yosemite, I was able to use the previous version of the wizard BootCamp 5.x to create the partition, bootcamp on the drive of the merger. And it will be divided in the fuser unit in two and insert the Bootcamp partition (with the size I chose, which can go up to 1 TB) between two partitions of MAC OSX.

  The disk partitions resulting from it, will be the partition MAC OS x on the SSD, the partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #1, partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #3.

  Then there is the BootCamp partition on the HARD drive partition #2.

  Is there a way to get what I need?

  That is what has been described in this notice of two canoes?

  Installation of Windows on a Boot Camp partition on a drive of TB Fusion 3

  Thank you.

  After having worked on those weeks, I realized that I need very painfully (by first going back to Yosemite and bootcamp 5 to escape all the limitations of El Capitan and BootCamp 6) I want to share here. Someone at - it other smarter solutions welcome.

  Note these steps and mentioned drivers only work for my version of iMAC, retina 5K late 2014. If you have other material, please search on the web to see which driver will work first. And all of these steps are destructive and assumed that you first take backup. It is only shared for interest only. Readers will have to bear your own risk.

  A. take backup

  1. take a backup completes my iMac Fusion Drive using Time Machine. Then restart with a Yosemite USB installation and select Terminal from the menu on the top bar.

  B. fuse out of the merger in two physical disks drive: SSD + HDD

  1. in the terminal, type the commands in show what the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the disc fusion)

  Cs diskutil list

  2. in the terminal, type commands for the fuse of the fuser unit and separate them to an SSD and a HARD drive.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the drive of the merger. There are many articles in this community on how this could be done,

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  This should finish within 30 minutes. If you have taken more time, this means that your reader of fusion has been altered somehow.

  I hit this issue too.  To use this command to remove the fusion drive hung up, and I need to do the hard to scramble a few sections of data in the hard disk partition table using the controls to tell the OSX this hard drive is a new without partitions:

  Cat >/dev/random /dev/disk0 (where/dev/disk0 is the SSD)

  and repeat for disk1/dev/disk1 which is the HARD drive in my case).

  This command will not return anything, but expect to press Ctrl-Z to end after 1 minute.

  2 create independent partitions (non-fusionend) for the installation of OSX.

  Borne Terminal output, and select disk utility, in disk utility, select the drive to HARD disk (and not on the partition), you will see the error message and you will be asked if you want to fix the fuser unit, click on ignore. Then wipe the HARD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"HARD drive".

  3. Repeat step 2, and then erase the SSD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"SSD ".

  C. install on the HARD disk as drive didier autonomous not fusion.

  1. go to Yosemite install screen and proceed with the installation of a clean copy of Yosemite to the iMAC. then connect you.

  D. use BootCamp Yosemite f5 to install windows.

  1. launch Yosemite bootcamp.

  2. check the two checkboxes for creating the USB drive to install windows 7 or a later version, and to download the windows supports the Apple software.  Do not click on the last box to install or remove windows pie creating real bootcamp partition again.

  3. it may take several hours to complete this function of your internet b/w and also performance of your USB drive.

  4. If you install Windows 7 (like me), then the downloaded drivers will not work for you, this will cause the issue of the device driver appleDSS.sys does not like this driver and others are too recent for windows 7 to use.  Also, your keyboard and mouse may not work even if you try to plug in a USB external keyboard or a mouse. You need to replace the drivers downloaded by others (the Boot Camp 5.1.5769 drivers that I find in this link: Software Support of Boot Camp 5.1.5769.) (Note: this driver is material specific only works for my iMAC model).  Once you have downloaded it, copy the two files in the root directory of the USB installation to replace the original ones. It's specific and material available for download somewhere on the Apple Site.

  -From the Finder, delete the $WinPE$ and the Boot Camp of the FLASH PLAYER files.

  -Expand the old drivers for Boot Camp 5.1.5769 (two records and another file) on your desktop.

  -Copy the $WinPE$ and records of Boot Camp in the FLASH PLAYER.

  5. open Boot Camp Assistant again and only select the third option, install Windows 7.

  It will show you the screen to select what installation disk, select HARD drive.

  Then drag the slide bar to select the size of the Bootcamp partition for windows you want, knowing that there is a restriction for windows installed using training camp on a MAC that the last byte of the BootCamp partition must reside in the first byte of the 2.2 T of each physical hard drive.

  For my case, I need only 500G for bootcamp and leaving behind 1.7 to for my MAC OSX partition immediately after the bootcamp partition and an another 0.8 T MAC OSX partition after him. 1.7 TB and the partition of MAC OS x 0.8 TB well exploited in the meantime bootcamp partition, will be merged into a fusion drive by Bootcamp. Thus, you will end up with total 2.5 TB of disk space in a logical drive - fuser.

  6. continue the process to partition the hard drive, then it will restart automatically in windows installation mode, install windows.

  7. once the installation is complete, check that windows is functioning correctly.

  E. Si you want to upgrade to windows 10 Windows 7.

  1 if you plan to upgrade to windows 10, you'll find that the windows IE v.8 7 is no longer works and had many problems to load the page.  Then when you try to download the latest version of Internet Explorer, you get an error that you need at least windows 7 SP1 to support the last IE.  Life is too complicated, just download the google Chrome browser, then search for download windows 10 and then run the Microsoft valuation tool to upgrade.

  2 but before upgrade you, unplug all your MAC USB drives, otherwise, you will find that, after having spent an hour downloading the windows 10 software, the upgrade will fail with the error "/ dynamicupdate...» ». It is an inexplicable mistake that no one seems to understand why. There are articles with proven results that the removal of all USB drives before running the windows 10 upgrade tool will correct this problem.

  F. reinstall OSX El Capitan

  Once your target windows system (if windows 7, windows 8 or windows 10) works very well.  You can continue to create again your Fusion drive and reinstall OSX El Capitan.

  1. Insert the install of OSX Yosemite rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

  2. When you hear the ringing tone, press on and hold down the option key for 10 seconds. Then you release.

  3. on the selection screen, select start Yosemite OSX install drive.

  4. after starting, do not proceed to install OSX El Capitan again. But select Terminal from the menu bar.

  5. in the terminal, type the command 'diskutil list cs' and you should see nothing to prove that there are no existing fusion drive yet.

  6 type the 'diskutil list' command to list all disks and partitions.

  The SSD has two partitions, the/dev/disk0s1 of EFI (209 MB) partition and the other/dev/disk0s2 of OSX partition we created in step B above, called SSD around 121 G.

  The HARD drive has two partitions, the/dev/disk1s1 of EFI (209 MB) partition and the other/dev/disk1s2 of OSX partition we created in step B above, called SSD.

  G. delete the logical storage of nucleus on the HARD disk drive and it refuses with the DSS to form a merger with faster performance disc

  1. Insert the install of OSX El Capitan rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

  2. When you hear the ringing tone, press on and hold down the option key for 10 seconds. Then you release.

  3. on the selection screen, select start Yosemite OSX install drive.

  4. after starting, do not proceed to install OSX El Capitan again. But select Terminal from the menu bar.

  5. in the terminal, type orders for (to show what are the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the logical drive). You should see the logical volume to basic storage group created using two partitions on the hard drive, 1.7 TB and TB 0.8 created when we run the Yosemite Bootcamp to install windows.

  Cs diskutil list

  6. in the terminal, type commands to delete logical drives from basic storage.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the logical drive.

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  7. tap "diskutil list" command lists all the resulting partitions. You should see that the HARD drive has the following partitions.

  / dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

  #: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER

  0: GUID_partition_scheme * GB 121,3 disk0

  1: disk0s1 EFI EFI 209.7 MB

  2: Apple_HFS GB SSD 121.0 disk0s2

  3: disk1s3 Apple_Boot Recovery 650.0 MB HD

  4: Microsoft database BOOTCAMP 503.0 GB disk1s4

  5: Apple_HFS 801,4 Untitled GB disk1s5

  8 type the following commands to create the logical volumes group, named "myLVG" (or the name) of fuser using the usable for OSX to the SSD and HDD partitions.

  diskutil cs to create "myLVG" disk0s2 disk1s2 disk1s5

  Note: Mark the group id of logical volume shown in the results.

  In my case, I want to book the last partition as standalone partition disk1s5 no-fusionend, so I can use it to raise the back, or format it in FAT32 to allow the exchange of data between the MAC and boot camp.

  So, I do not understand this last partition in the drive of the merger. in my case, the command that I used is: diskutil cs to create "myLVG" disk0s2 disk1s2

  9 create logical volumes named "Macintosh HD" (or you call it) on the logical volume group we just created for the reader of the merger.

  diskutil createvolume logical volume group ID jhfs cs + 'Macintosh HD' 100%

  10 command "diskutil cs type list" to check the resulting fusion drive created.

  Hello.
  I have Toshiba M70-159 and I have problem with my HARD drive. My power to drive (FUJITSU MHV2060BH) down from 2 to 5 min... I put in Toshiba Power Saver "Never."
  I now read http://www.fel.fujitsu.com/support/disk/manuals/m60_product_manual.pdf and I see maybe APM I put.
  How can I configure Mode APM?

  1.11 advanced Power Management (APM)

  The hard disk automatically switches to the mode according to energy saving the
  setting the APM mode under the inactive state.
  The APM mode can be selected with a number of sector register of ALL

  Hello

  You can use either the Toshiba Power Saver that controls also the APM mode or you will remove him this tool and then you will use the Windows power management.
  Here, you can change the settings for the APM mode.
  Unfortunately the other options to disable the APM Mode are not known to me.

• eject the disc from the drive USB Super

  Last night I unboxed my new USB Super drive and attached to my MacBookPro. I put in a DVD of registered film and was able to start playing. Then I ejected it by clicking on the disc icon on the desktop, because I was just testing how it connected etc...  Then, I wanted to see if he could save.

  I inserted a blank DVD and he asked me to tell him what to save, but I didn't save. Instead, he presented another option, which was to IGNORE.

  So I clicked on IGNORE. As a result, there was NO ICON ON THE DESKTOP for this drive. And the text to EJECT in menu bar is grey.

  Now I am sitting here with a new USB Super with a blank CD disk stuck in it and am totally IGNORED, I asked, but what I didn't know when I asked to ignore me.

  That's the problem. I disconnected, signed back in, and he has not yet cleared my instructions to ignore. So I can't eject the blank DVD disc.

  Where should I go from here?

  My MacBookPro is the retina, i7, 15 '' running ElCapitan, a model community 2015, I think.  I'm not on it now, but will open it to follow the suggestions for help. I'm a new converted to Apple, computing, coming from Windows, so I need the regular basic directions. Any help is appreciated.

  Five ways to eject a CD or a stuck DVD from the optical drive

  Ejecting the disc stuck can be done in one of the following ways:

  1 restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and press and hold the

  left button of the mouse until the disc ejects.

  2. press on the button of your keyboard.

  3. click on the button in the menu bar.

  4. press COMMAND-e.

  5. If none of the above works try this: open the Terminal application in

  your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following text:

  / usr/bin/drutil eject of

  If this fails, then try this:

  Start the computer in single-user Mode. At the prompt, enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter 'reboot' at the prompt without the quotes.

• How can I check the disc for physical integrity on Satellite P305?

  I have P305-S8838.

  I had some freezing problems earlier this month, and on the notice here, I nu start-up and reduced services a little at a time.
  Now, I have a few more crash but don't know if it's a physical disk problem.

  For example... I have run CHKDSK and does many things and happens at the exact same spot and hangs at step 4 file 5 3498 or 421168 processed.

  I tried to run CHKDSK in SafeMode but tells me drive is locked and it will run when I restart. But the restart put back me in normal mode and get the same hang.

  Now, for more suspicion of a physical problem. I tried to make a disk image with ACronis and same problem occurs because he says impossible to reading data 226 964, 072 sector and ask if I want to ignore and continue. I say yes to everything. Log shows he made about three of these attempts and crashes.

  I ran sfc/scannow and it says found problems that he was unable to fix. The newspaper isn't so long and complex course that all means. I could send these log files if someone can help me understand.

  I ran the test of memory OK.

  I if I could put in DVD Toshiba and certain diagnoses, but when I put in the disk I get this big warning I'll crush, etc and I have chicken.

  This didn't stop me to use the computer, but its all irritating.

  How can I check the disc for physical integrity?

  Hello

  He idea goo to check the HARD disk and run some diagnostic procedures.
  For this, I recommend the freeware tool called Drive Fitness Test.
  It allows you to check the HARD disk for certain physical defects.

  Google for this tool. You can get it from multiple pages download

• MBP is unable to start the recovery mode

  What I did:

  1 created a BOOTCAMP WIN7 partition.

  2 installed WIN7 without any problem.

  3. after the installation realized this BOOTCAMP partition was too small to account for the applications.

  4. in OSX, I used the disc utilities to create a new partition in the hope to expand WIN7 using computer management.

  Note: Did not know at this stage that I couldn't resize the BOOTCAMP partition.

  5. in the reboot was missing the BOOTCAMP partition. Back to OSX and deleted the partition newly created in the hope of solving problem. It does not solve the issue returned if MAC partition to the previous size.

  6. found online for instructions to restore the BOOTCAMP partition.  Basically, I have executed (sudo/dev/disk0 gdisk), track your orders: r, h, 4, y, hex MBR code default, y, n, o, o, y. When I tried to write this out I got an error.  After research, I realized that, even as root, I had no possibility to write the settings.  This required me to disable SIP.  So I booted into recovery mode, within the Terminal, I was able to run (csrutil disable).  No problem. Back to OSX, and at that time, I was able to write the settings.  Restarted and my BOOTCAMP partition was available.   At this point, I was on the original show with BOOTCAMP partition too small.

  7 bought WINCLONE and backed up my BOOTCAMP partition.  Deleted the partition, BOOTCAMP and MAC returned to the original hard disk configuration.  Back to manufacture settings.

  8. resized by car using the disc utilities for what I tried to accomplish.  WINCLONE to restore image BOOTCAMP.  This large all worked.  All partitions appear by pressing the alt/options when starting.  I can't enter EC OSX and WIN7.

  9. after having reached this point, I decided that it was important to turn SIP.  When I tried to boot into recovery mode by using alt/options the MBP displays the loading splash screen but then goes off.  So then I tried to use the command + r taking me to internet loading recovery.  The recovery screen eventually load and when I try to run (enable csrutil) I get bash command not found error.

  Note: I ran disk utility first aid on the menu of recovery OSX EC and internet, no error.  Still no luck with the transition into recovery mode.

  Current status: the two operating systems work very well.  I was even able to update WIN7 WIN10 without any problem.  I just can't in recovery mode to activate SIP.

  Any advice?

  My next option was to delete the BOOTCAMP partition and do a clean install, but I fear that my software purchased as FileMaker Pro and WINCLONE will be unavailable.  I have a Time Machine backup and running.  That said, when I tried to restore the iMac of the wife he not would allow me to restore the operating system using Time Machine.  I don't know why, but I had to use my image to restore his computer.  My MBP FileValt is currently disabled.  He was turned on but felt the need to disable it to prevent that a possible problem.  I made a backup of charges using Time Machine and also WINCLONE.

  Thanks in advance.

  Update:

  1. I just finished a clean install of EC and that corrects my SIP number.  I just want to add that Time machine worked very well!  I was able to restore all applications.

  2. next goal is trying to install WIN10 image and WINCLONE.  My hope is that it will not change my MBR.

• Satellite P100: How to activate the AHCI mode?

  As all you know, some laptops P100 series are equipped with a controller Intel 82801GBM SATA natively supports the AHCI and with a Fujitsu HDD which takes in charge the NCQ.

  However, the disc is forced in compatibility mode, and therefore the NCQ is disabled, resulting in a loss of performance (which is certainly necessary that laptop hard drives are generally slower than those of office).

  Unfortunately, there is no option in the BIOS which activates the AHCI mode and no tool like HWUtility that can twist that (although it wouldn't work). As far as I know, newer laptops support AHCI mode and there is also an option in the BIOS to enable it.

  Is it possible to activate the AHCI mode in our laptops beloved and make the most of our hard drives?

  Hello

  Do you think that the AHCI is disabled?
  You can run the Intel Chipset ID utility to determine if the ICH7DH SATA controller is already running in AHCI or not.

  However, I studied a little more on other forums that are a little more specific and find this:
  Activate the AHCI on Intel chipsets, without having to reinstall Windows 2000/XP

• the iPhoto on external hard drive library hangs in the print mode

  I use iPhoto 9.6.1 on OS X Yosemite (10.10.2). I have a photo library on an external drive. I tried to print a photo several times, but it failed to print. Since yesterday I'm hanging in print for this particular library only mode. I don't have this problem with all other IPhoto libraries. Before my attempt to print the photo, there was a message noting that the external drive was not properly ejected.  I do not eject the disc. However, it can come off as I move the laptop. I left the program without needing to force to leave. I can't reopen this specific iPhoto library without result. The library needs to be repaired or rebuilt? I won't touch the iPhoto on laptop computer library. How can I only repair / rebuild iPhoto library? I need to access this library to complete my printing projects.

  Save the library in question then press the command and option keys and double-click on it to launch Photos - keep the keys pressed until it appears the first air window - repair permissions and then rebuild the database

• Can not access the Recovery Mode

  Hello guys,.

  I have a very annoying problem.

  I can't enter mode recovery on my iMac 27 "late 2011, El Capitan 10.11.1.
  After pressing 'control' + 'r' at the start, the recovery mode is loading, however, when the progress bar reaches half width computer is turn off.

  When I try to access the Boot Manager ('option' button) turns on but after the selection of the recovery disc the situation in almost the same thing - is to turn off the computer.

  It is a very annoying problem because if I have problems I won't be able to fix my Mac...

  I await your response.

  If you do not already have a current backup, please backup all data, and then reinstall the OS. * you don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need the backup unless something is wrong. If the system has been upgraded an earlier version of Mac OS X, you may need to the Apple ID and password to use.

  There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

  If you installed the runtime Java distributed by Apple, and still need, you will need to reinstall it. It goes the same for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.

  Related support article refers to OS X 10.11 ("El Capitan"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later versions.
