DVD - RW device will not be displayed.

I logged in windows 7 Home premium (I used it for a while) and I press the button of the DVD player and it does not open

Then I try to find it in the computer but not DVD player there is only the local disk (C :) that I look in Device Manager and it is not there.

I have a HP Pavilion dv6 notebook PC.

Any application that can solve this problem?

Others in this forum you will probably offer suggestions.  I'll make one that is based on any of these work.

DVD drives in laptops are common failure points.  They can be quite expensive (if possible) to replace.  You can buy an external DVD drive that is not much bigger than a DVD with a short cable that you can use instead.  they run about $20 and can be used on any computer.

  • iPhone will not be displayed in the finder

    I'm trying to move some of the photos from my phone to a file on my computer and my phone will not be displayed in the tab "currencies" in the finder. It's an iPhone 6 and it is connected through the USB port. I know this isn't an error connection because when I plug it in it costs and is trying to import my photos in the section 'photos' from my computer. I went into the settings in the finder and all turned on and it will not always be displayed. Why is this?

    Because Apple has decided that OS X is smarter than you and me. They removed this option on the latest versions of Mac OS X (my devices do not appear more, grrrr...). Try instead to use Image Capture and import or remove photos from there.

  • iPod touch 6th generation will not be displayed in itunes

    So I got an ipod touch 6th generation, brand new today. I have a bunch of songs on my computer I want to put on it, but the ipod will not be displayed in itunes.

    I'm on Windows 10, the latest version of itunes and I tried to restart the ipod and the computer several times in order to put in place. I deleted the apple driver put it into every usb port, reset all warnings dialog, I reset the iPod and deleted everything and started around and still nothing.

    I think that the problem lies in the fact that I was not prompted to trust the computer. I think I could have been, but the text was gone too fast so I don't know if I clicked on Yes or no. Does anyone have an idea what to do?

  • TOSHIIBA external hard drive will not be displayed in "My computer" (Windows 7)

    Several months ago, I bought a Toshiba external hard drive and used to back up my laptop.  I have not used since then, but needed to recover a lost file today.  Unfortunately, when I plug the external hard drive, it will not be displayed in my computer.  When I connect, I get the sound that makes Windows when connect you something.  The hard drive turns on and I can feel it running.  But it does not appear in my computer.  If I go into the Device Manager and look under ' hard drives it appears as "USB device external Toshiba 3.0."  When it is offline, it does not appear in the list of disk drives in Device Manager.

    Advice how I can get to appear in 'My Computer' so I can actually access the files?  Thank you!

  • Themes from browser will not be displayed in the iPhone app

    I created a few themes for a project in color.adobe.com (signed on my account) and went in my iPhone application (also signed on the same account) and attempted to access topics in the tapped app sign, creative cloud, 'my library '. "My library" has old themes, but the new will not be displayed even after dragging down to update. I tried to 'release' themes, but that does not work.

    In fact, now I notice only three of the seven themes of the mobile library are appearing in the browser. Y at - it a setting to synchronize? I am very confused.

    EDIT:

    OK, so apparently they were saved in "my themes. Which begs the question, what is 'my library'? Is it a vestige of the front changed spelling of Kuler Color and deleted everything? How can I save my themes just in folders and not to attempt to navigate the labyrinth of libraries, topics, files and some other subsections of the themes repeated I have? I'd like to organize all my themes and sync between all my devices, but... I am so baffled by all this.

    The color.adobe.com undergoes a lot of changes to manage the themes of color in a more meaningful way.

    Once this is done, the themes in the web and mobile applications will be synchronized.

    HTH,

  • Old iPod will not be displayed in iTunes

    I found my first iPod. Not even sure what year I got it but I'm guessing 12 years ago...

    It loads when I connect it to the computer and it works like a charm but it will not be displayed in iTunes.

    iTunes had to have 1 million edits since my last played iPod, but does anyone have any idea if I can make iTunes recognize it if I can change the songs in?

    It is the same for a first generation iPod mini. Fresh big through the wall and the computer, play a lot but iTunes wants nothing to do with it.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Sophie

    Hi Sophie...



    "it will not be displayed in iTunes..."

    Your profile suggests that your Mac is running v10.10.3. If this is the case, update your OS X software and iTunes can help.

    The OS X 10.10.5 and iTunes 12.3.3 implemented to date are available.

    Disconnect the iPod before installing updates.

    Click on your Apple  top left of your screen.

    In the drop-down menu, click on about this Mac

    Make sure the " view " tab is selected, and then click software update.

    Your Mac may restart several times during the update process. That's ok.

    Then plug in your iPod and see if iTunes recognizes it.

  • home page will not be displayed

    I downloaded firefox 12 now, it will not be displayed when I try to open that a page with lots of info but no home page

    One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

  • Will not be displayed in Windows Explorer (16 GB SanDisk 45Mo/sec Class 10)

    Hey!

    I have two exactly the same 16 GB SanDisk 45Mo/sec Class 10 for over 2 years now, I've been using them with my Nikon D5100. One of the two SD cards will not be displayed in Windows Explorer for a few weeks. I am running Windows 8.1 64-bit and I use the SD card reader built into my ASUS N550JK

    More funny thing is, the other SD card is always as they both were normally. Defective SD card still works and I can still access my photos via another PC. Also, connecting the Nikon to my PC with the SD card inside my camera allows me to access the images.

    Does anyone know how to fix this? I want it to appear in my Windows Explorer as it did a few weeks ago.

    Thanks in advance.

    Strangely, the problem is solved itself... I don't know what I changed to my computer. Maybe install the Windows updates? I do not know.
