Cannot read files on USB Apple Superdrive with IMac

I haven't used my superdrive drive bother at all over the past three years. But now I need to read several CD looking for some images and it reads randomly some and not others. Suggestions?

It could be the media (scratches or dust?), or the brand (iMacs are very finicky about what media they like) or the reader. The super thin discs vertically installed are prone to bad conduct; in my case, the mechanism that catches the media wrong and the car had to be replaced. If you try to use the own media brands like Verbatim, and it still does not work, I suggest to make a Genius Bar appointment - the service is free. You would have to pay for any repairs if your warranty has expired.

    If your RMAN backup exists on the target server path.

    Target server: C:\Oracle\RMAN_BACKUP\

    Put on the same location on the auxiliary server.

    Auxiliary server: C:\Oracle\RMAN_BACKUP\

    When cloning also connect with your catalog of recovery that you use the catalog of recovery for the server target.

  • HP Pavilion X 2: HP Pavilion XP cannot read data from USB DVDs

    We bought a HP 10-ND200ND (HP pavilion X 2) in the Mediamarkt and tried to install Microsoft Office from a DVD via a DVD USB Samsung player.  This was not possible. According to Support Mediamarkt this product is a Tablet and so cannot read data DVD´s. Only General to play music. To buy a laptop computer for this application. The operating system is Windows 10 (32 bit). Is that correct. Please advice.

    Hi Banhien, the cause is known. I have seen other comments on the HP forum and concluded that the reader needs more power than is available through the USB connector of. I added a hub that can provide power to its connectors USB, HP X 2, by car and the problem has been resolved! It was noted that the mini USB is also more powerful and with the type of adapter USB USB C it might also work, but I did not test this, because I do not have such an adapter. It's odd that such a mini can provide more power. It is surprising that the HP Pavilion X 2 does not have a powerful USB. But the problem is solved. Thanks for your response! Best regards, wiely

  • Cannot read file rules

    Hello

    I loaded data successfully on another server with the same data and the same rules file and ceteris parabus the same file / rule fails with. "Cannot read the file rules ' in the error log and"unexpected error Essbase 1007083' on load results screen data.

    I tried refreshing and save the rules file as if it was a problem caused by differences on the original version of the server, it makes no difference, but does not prove that EAS has the right to write rules file in the directory it is more later saying he can't read?

    I was also on the data file with a fine for special characters tooth comb and can't find any problem, AND, as previously noted, the same file load perfectly on another server.

    I've also limited the load file down to a single line to exclude the possibility of this being caused by memory, although the original file is of modest size, a few hundred lines time columns 3, parent / child / alias.

    This is a new installation of Essbase, which does not seem to work correctly, but now that will not seem to load some files.

    I tried to restart Essbase, but the problem remains.

    My version of EAS is 11.1.2.3

    Someone at - it help please?

    Thank you

    Robert.

    Hello

    I found my own difficulty and I'm posting for the recording, so any that come after that run into the same issue...

    Save my rules file for the directory of the Essbase server rather than the file system, ceteris parabus, works perfectly.

    If someone can tell me why I would be interested.

  • Cannot read file wav hearing recorded in the Android device

    Hello

    I use hearing CS6 version5.0 to edit wav files and play in an Android device to test. I have a wav file that can be played with an android device, I only use my Audiotion CS6 to open and save as another file, so this file cannot be read with the same device.

    Bad feedback:

    HDR.fmt_sz 18 hdr.bits_per_sample = 16hdr.audio_format = 1

    Aplay:aplay: ' / data/media/Spk_R_Bot.wav' is not in the pcm format

    Good feedback:

    HDR.fmt_sz 16 hdr.bits_per_sample = 16hdr.audio_format = 1

    aplay: play ' /data/media/Spk_R_Bot.wav':Signed 16-bit Little Endian

    aplay: Samplerate channels [44100] [2]

    Aplay: Plays

    It seems that the main format of wav file went from 16 hdr.fmt_sz to hdr.fmt_sz 18, how config my hearing that save the wav even as the right file and can be played with android device.

    You use Libsndfile .wav option to save the file, by chance? That gives endian options and all sorts of other possibilities for wav files. That could cause all sorts of problems!

    Use the Windows PCM option at the bottom of the list only - what is almost certainly the only one that will work correctly.

  • cannot read files on disk or source file

    Hi modelkit,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site.

    It seems that the problem is related to your support. To check if the media is corrupted or not, you can follow one of the following methods:

    Method 1: Try to copy the files to another computer.

    If you are not able to copy the files in another computer, then we certainly know that the CD has bad sectors which prevent copy of file.

    Method 2: Run Xcopy to check if the disc is damaged or not:

    1. click on start, principally made programs, click Accessories and then right-click on command prompt, click run as administrator.

    2. type the following command line and press ENTER. In the command line, drive is the letter of the CD drive or DVD drive.
    xcopy drive:-*. * /s > c:\test1
    If the XCopy process is not successful, the CD is damaged. Therefore, the CD or DVD drive cannot read it.

    The corrupt media, you can try manually copy each file. This will ensure that most of the files is copied leaving only the files in the area of corruption.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 cannot read files from Sony A7Mk2 ARW

    Hello

    My Photoshop elements program 12 (v12.1) cannot read riles gross a Sony A7Mk2 ILÇE - 7 M 2.  I've updated to the latest Adobe Camera Raw plugin (8.5.0.236) that apparently supports the raw files of the device, but it does not work.

    The error returned is "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be a model of camera that is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw."

    I tried all the troubleshooting steps on pages using Adobe including uninstalling and reinstalling the software from Adobe.

    One of the possible reasons for the problem: on cameras supported list of page, Camera Raw plugin | Compatible cameras, the A7Mk2 appear amongst the 'Sony ILÇE -has7 M 2 "which seems to be a mistake, as the correct model is 'Sony ILÇE - 7 M 2' (i.e. without 'A'). .

    Very frustrating since I bought items for this purpose!

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Given the amount of photos that I take, convert to DNG isn't really a viable option.

    I think that says Sony A7Mk2 ILÇE-7 M 2 (adobe calls Sony ILÇE-A7M2) has at least camera raw 8.7.1, need so you can use the converter 8.8 adobe dng or upgrade to pse 13, that would open these files directly without the need of the dng converter.

    (you need to use help > updates in the PES editor 13 to get the plugin camera raw 8.7.1)

    I am running Windows Vista.

    The counter in the corner only showed the film long 8 seconds?
    However, the properties of the file section confirms it was a 1.6 GB, 2 hour movie...?
