• My CD/DVD drive cannot read or write media.

  I get a message to insert a disc, but it is already in it.   When I reinsert the disc, I get the same message.

  Hello

  Looks like the drive has a problem, possibly a cleaning disc might help if he and the
  below are questionable solutions to what sounds like a hardware problem.

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
  a process that solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
  Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
  RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
  below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
  cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  ===============================

  Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
  Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
  do it right.

  Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
  the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
  the correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

• imaqReadAVIFrame retrieves the empty image under certain conditions?

  Hello

  I'm having a problem where imaqReadAVIFrame (.) is the white recovery (all black images) under certain conditions.  The conditions seem to be when the height of the AVI file is equal to or greater than the width and the height is an odd number.  AVI files created by using the various AVI NI Vision (IMAQ 4.6.1, IMAQdx 4.6.1) functions in an application created in CVI 2012 on a computer running Windows 7 64 bit.  AVI files use MJPEG compressor, and they play back fine in an external program like VLC or Windows Media Player.  Any ideas on what this could be?  My solution for now is to not to allow the creation of AVI files where the height is odd and equal to or greater than the width that is not a boring restriction, but it seems like there's something weird happens with imaqReadAVIFrame().  I can provide some AVI files if necessary, but they are 16 + MB each.

  TStanley,

  I managed to reproduce what you see with your .avi files in a program I wrote.  I built a LabVIEW program that creates an AVI file which can be saved to memory and then uses code from the example finder to read who created the file.  I build the file to your specifications at the height is greater than the width, and the height being an odd number of pixels.  Something interesting about this, however, is that it seems to be a point where an odd height is acceptable.  Once you go below the height of 291 pixels, any odd height then works.  The files that I used are written as read in LabVIEW, but that the configuration should be irrelevant because we are seeing the same issue.  In addition, LabVIEW and LabWindows CVI calling the same dll to actually set up the code.

  In this, I think this question arises from the nature of the way you compress the. AVI file.  If you are interested to read a bit more about it, a useful link can be found here:

  http://www.manifest-tech.com/media_pc/avi_formats.htm

  However, what I think is happening, is it that MJPEG file compression format translates into creating files that cannot be read by our software unless the height in pixels is a multiple of 2 or the size of the file is below a certain limit.  To fix that, there is a simple solution. Compress the file with any of the other compression methods available (DV video, Cinepak Codec, codec Intel IYUV, Microsoft RLE, Microsoft Video) and you will be able to open the file without the black screen.  This worked for me and should solve all your problems.  I hope this gives you a bit of insight.

  Kind regards

• Under certain conditions allow a Feedback

  We use integrated installation of APEX flow back. We love this feature but, we will only use it in development. Is that anyway, apart from the use of JavaScript to hide or remove the link, we can have this under certain conditions depending on the environment in which the application is running?

  I know we can go turn off in the properties of the Application, but we have a ton of environments and having to manually press this switch whenever get us a new version of the application becomes tedious. I expect something more by program / data driven. For example, is it possible to return this switch integrated with PL/SQL?

  Thank you

  Create a compilation Option. In the development environment has defined the status on Includeand by default on export to exclude.

  Apply the Option to build on the entry page and the navigation bar of your comments. When the application is imported into a different environment the comments link and the page will not be returned.

• Under certain conditions create script

  Hi, I want to put a redirect code in my stsytem to help, it is possible to build under certain conditions one < script type = "text/javascript" > tag?

  Any help would be great appricieated

  oooo and meta tags as well!

  You are wanting to add a Javascript within a topic and then conditionalise it so it appears only in some outings? If so, check out this part of the aid for the addition of scripts. Once it is in, you should be able to add a tag of conditional compilation to exclude required results.

  I'm not sure you can conditionalise however meta tags. Maybe if you elaborate a bit on what you're trying to reach.

• How can I add a page under certain conditions?

  Hello

  I'm trying to find a way to add a page to my form under certain conditions. I tried to create this sequel to 'action', but failed to locate the correct action.

  To sum up, I am trying to add a separate page to my existing form with instructions when a specific check box is selected. The separate page is text only and does not form any entries/field. Is there a relatively simple way to accomplish this task?

  You can enter the code in the script editor. If you do not show you can get it by pressing on (on PC) Ctrl + Shift + F5.

Please take care to not to use a paper to clean the disc with a circular motion, it will scratch the disc.

  After cleaning, inert the DVD on the drive to see if it works, if the reader can't read the disc, use a cloth of cotton wet with water or alcohol to clean the disc.

  Open the drive to check if the DVD reader accumulates dust and dirt, if so, the cold air from the hair dryer allows you to clean the inside of the DVD drive. Be sure to not blow on the optical sensor orally, or clean it with a cloth of cotton with water or alcohol. After cleaning, insert a DVD disc on the drive to see if it works. If still no, you need to call the s command customer service or take the reader to a computer repair shop.

• Satellite U300 - CD/DVD drive cannot read disks

  My CD/DVD drive does not work.

  It can be heard at work (or maybe working), but it cannot read the discs - music films or niether. The 'properties', says the disk is full, but can not read the contents. Neither is it give details of the content.

  If I run iTunes or Real Player, suffice to say it is a blank disc in the drive and told me to get ready to burn to a disc. But in his own info says that the disc is full! Windows XP sees the drive in 'Properties' and said that it is complete, but does not display the contents of the disc. Devices, said the drive (type HL-DT-STDVDRAM GSA-U10N) "working properly".

  I have turned off the HDD (software protection movement) protection because he stirs a warning whenever the unit darn picked. I tried to use the drive with it on and outside. My computer is 18 months old (I think), but this problem has existed for a year and gets more and more frustrating.

  Help please.

• HP dv2500 - CD/DVD drive "Application not found".

  I have a Pavilion dv2500 with the optical drive does not properly.  It is detected by the system, but does not recognize/autolaunch whatever it is inserted in the drive.  When I try to open the drive in my computer, it says "" F: / Application not found! "."

  I tried the the registry fix that is always posted here in response to the problems of CD/DVD drive.

  I tried to reinstall via Device Manager ("this device is working properly").

  I have removed/reinstalled all programs using the player (iTunes, Nero, etc..)

  It's extremely frustrating, any additional help/suggestions would be appreciated.

  I am pleased to announce that I was able to do work - physically remove the disk, I noticed that the support of screws holding that place was folded outwards, probably preventing all contacts a link to the motherboard.

  I hope that the system restore will speed up things a bit as well.

• Satellite A120: CD/DVD drive cannot read or recognize DVD

  Hello

  I had this problem, whenever I insert a DVD, or even a CD containing data stored, my laptop will not be able to access these files.
  When I go to my computer, there will be an icon to recognize the CD or the DVD, I sometimes get a message saying that the file extensions is not overprint and I have to change it.

  Funniest yet, when I try to insert a DVD-ROM, it recognizes the DVD as a VIRGIN drive; an icon appears in my computer that would suggest that the DVD CD is actually a blank disc. Simply, I can't run any DVD or CD any data.

  I have the latest drivers, I run Vista 32 bit and am distraught as the cause of my problems.

  I hope I can get this problem solved by your help.

  Hello

  I'm not quite sure, what could be the reason of this strange WEIRD question but let's m hope this could be solved by changing some registry entries.

  First of all, please go to the Device Manager and remove the drive from the list of devices CD/DVD.

  Then, start the registry editor and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  Then restart the laptop and check if the CD/DVD drive would work after a new reorganization of the driver and installation.
