FireWire problems

Not having is not a good time with my computer at the moment but this particualr problem concerns Firewire. I used this system with great skill in the past, it's not working for me now, so I must be missing something.

I am wanting to transfer files to mac mini iMac Yosemite 10.7, tried repeatedly to alternating a computer game target and host ups (necessary because it went wrong when I thought that it should) but each time the best result is to see every HD clean machines on his own desk and not on the other machine.

Don't use me keep trying.

My understanding was the target computer is the one that I want to transfer files and the other is the host? But it did not work that way or in the opposite direction.

Is there a compatibility issue please?

I enjoyed the simplicity of the FireWire in the past.

You start in disc Mode target (press T during startup) the Mac you want to copy the files. The internal drives on the Mac should shoup in the Finder on your other Mac.

  • Laptop model satellite PSM30E (of Spain) has a firewire problem

    Hello

    I got this new laptop for Christmas in Spain and cannot have to connect to my music production studio Yamaha 01 x by using the firewire port internal. The Yamaha has been tested and is fine so you need the port firewire or something in the Satellite which does not communicate via Mlan firewire to the O1x. I'm at my wits end! As the 01 x cost much and has not yet worked!
    Help, please!

    Hello Evina

    Sorry, but on this path it is not easy to say why this is happening. The best solution is to try to plug another external device to the firewire port and test functionality. If there is something wrong, you can do two things:

    -Preinstall the unit using rescue media and check again or
    -Contact the seller and let check the device.

    You can also contact Yamaha support and ask them if there are problems known and similar. I think they have a lot more experience with this then support Toshiba.

    Good luck Evina!

  • Not getting FireWire devices not recognized on Windows 7

    Recognition FireWire problems
    My computer with Windows 7 Prof 64 bit doesn't recognize firewire devices that I connect to it.  Device Manager displays the drivers 1394 work very well.  My WD external hard drive so my Sony HDR HC5 camcorder are more recognized when I plug them cold or hot plug. Two of them have worked very well for more than 2 years and now for some unknown reason, that they stopped just recognized on any of 3 firewire ports available in my new DELL Studio8000 PC with a firewire card Texas Instruments PCI with 2 firewire ports. I have replaced the cables, uninstalled the drivers and reinstall them without any result.

    Hi DMJ06,

    Thanks for your post.

    If the manufacturer indicates a hardware failure on the device, it is likely, it is accurate.

    If it does not work on any of your computers, it's a strong argument for their suggestion.

    I propose to repair the unit if possible.

  • Import analog Video8 through Firewire and Digital8 camcorder problem

    Hello!

    I've got a few Video8 tapes from a Sanyo camcorder that's dying, so I bought an old camcorder Sony DCR-TRV480E to eBay which allows to capture Digital8, but also reading and listening to the Video8 and Hi8.

    I finally got the camcorder and tried to play back Video8, immediately, it changes the function of reading and my old videos with audio built-in to confirm and DNR view (s). All good so far.

    Then when I plug in my MBP 2011 (Yosemite) via the FireWire 800 port, then choose Import my camera (not supported) appears and plays video and audio beautifully when you click on "import". Only problem is - it doesn't matter! "He said," any device "in the upper right corner, even if it is the video with the audio in the window of import with no problems.

    The same thing happens in iMovie.

    Anyone who has seen the same problem? I want my DV imported into FCPX without loss of quality, so I can have finally digitized them and get rid of those old tapes.

    I appreciate any help on this matter.

    FCP X requires timecode.

    Most of the cameras Hi - 8mm and 8mm had no time, writing code on the tape.

    Try Quicktime x to capture your video footage.

    If you have QuickTime 7 Pro, it would be even better option than QT X for the capture.

  • Problems with the Firewire Audio Interfaces

    I use a Presonus Firebox for all of my recording and playback. I just bought a new pc HP with Vista64 and I had problems with my audio since then. Symptoms include random audio dropouts, crackling sounds when you scroll through the menus in my software, no noise at all from windows media, no windows generally sound player. Everything works sometimes, but inevitably fails. Once the audio is de-energized my only solution is to restart the computer, and then it still doesn't work sometimes. I don't understand. My last computer was a couple of years and built the hand. It worked perfectly with this unit until the motherboard is dead after what I bought my new HP desktop with terrible results. The main difference between my pc and this one is that I was using XP and XP64. However, I have the right drivers for the home and the computer recognizes it but I can't operate consistantly and correctly. This new HP has more power than my last, and more then enough power for my needs recording software. I would like to know, I've been recording music on PC for 8 years. Any advice would be welcome.

    I am now convinced that the long nightmare is finally over. I tested my home over and over again with no failures. Record and playback midi seem to work perfectly. Here's what I did:

    1 optimized my computer for audio streaming using the guide written by sweetwater.com.

    2 uninstall all the drivers from Presonus and all software, including the removal of all PreSonus files on the registry using the instructions provided by the technical support of PreSonus.

    3 disabled WLAN and then physically disconnected from the motherboard.

    4. my computer has two firewire ports. The front port was connected to the motherboard via a short cable. I physically unplugged the cable from the motherboard.

    5. I bought an Express(1x) PCI firewire 400 card with a Texas Instruments chipset. The exact brand is inner Pro PCI Express(1x) 4 port 1394 a. The firewire card is a power port. I plugged the power jack on the same line, connected to the DVD player. I don't know if it's important, but I'll try to document EXACTLY what I did. The firewire card requires no driver work. It came with a disc with a B.S. video editing software I was not installed.

    6. I turned on my computer and disabled the built-in firewire in Device Manager, leaving only the new active firewire card.

    7. I installed the drivers from the Firebox from the original disc supplied with my unit (v1.20.0). I had good results from these pilots in the past that may be because I use XPsp2.

    8. I have connected the combustion chamber when prompted to by the installation software.

    9. rebooted the computer with the combustion chamber connected and everything's fine.

    By the way:

    The inner firewire card cost me $ 30.00

    My computer specs are:
    HP a6745f desktop
    Dual core AMD 5050e 2.6 GHz
    XP sp2
    GigsRAM 4 (3.25 because I'm on XP)

    If you are confused in the store on the question of whether a firewire card uses a Texas Instruments chipset. Try to get a glance at the map. You should see a chip bearing the logo of TI: the State of Texas, w / Ti. YeeeeeeeHawwwww!

  • Audio serious buffering of problems L350 - 20G / FA-66 / Expresscard Firewire

    Hello

    I'm after some advice about this frustrating; I used to have a Toshiba Equium A100 - 02L I used in conjunction with my Edirol FA - 66 firewire audio interface, that I used for about 3 years with no problems. The laptop took a battering to concerts and other things kicking so I decided to upgrade.

    I went for the Satellite L350 - 20G and have tried to get my work with it through the use of am ST LAB Express card double 6-pin firewire port with a TI FA-66 chipset. I tried to use this in XP / Windows 7/Vista with no good result. I have made sure I have all the latest drivers for all platforms and made sure I GL40 chipset driver installed and still the same result audio seems to be severely low resolution or buffers and chops the audio to the top.

    This t really shouldn't happen I don't know, but am pretty out of options. Another comment on the express card slot is the slot is wide like a PCMCIA slot and it does it not very well Express card. I feel a little cheated on this and had a lot of faith in my old Toshiba but now wonder what the hell to do what I bought this laptop for Audio / production.

    All the tips are greatly appreciated.

    As far as I know, and I saw him in textbooks too, while your computer you can use ExpressCard34 or ExpressCard54, both with 26 pins. You can see them HERE.

  • Problem the A300 1EG satellite - horrible latency firewire external sound card

    Hello

    I wanted to put my Toshiba laptop for music recording through Alesis Multimix Firewire, which is an external firewire sound card.
    All the drivers are up to date and supported by Vista, I have on my computer.
    Always when using Cubase, I get horrible latency and its impossible to work with.

    So this way, I wanted to ask you, what firewire chipset is used in the A300 1EG specifications?
    Could there be a problem with asio drivers or is it inconsistent?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think that it s a common firewire port (4-pin) and chip firewire supports the standard IEEE-1394 commune.

    In your case I recommend that you check the information and details posted by the sound card manufacturer.

    Maybe guys something more known on own products and the problems that might appear to use it.

    Community salvation OR,.

    I want to use my guppy (FireWire 1394 connection) of Allied vision camera, but I came across a connection problem. I use this card FireWire (http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=428618), but according to the installation, check, this card is properly installed.

    When I plugged the camera Vision Builder AI 2010 and it wouldn't recognize my camera so I went for the problem that I found at my material properties. When I go to the properties of the camera, he said: "this device does not start. (Code 10).

    I've been looking for a solution, but I'm not a genius when it comes to this. So is there maybe someone who can help me with this problem.

    Here's an update after a whole day looking for a solution.

    I currently see the my card PCI IEEE 1394 (old map 2001) who has a complaint OHCI driver (I guess that's the default windows driver). I also see the camera under my hardware, but it shows with a small sign of error that says "device will not start (Code 10)". I also installed the driver NOR can I see in my MAX of NOR, but non-material to my PCI IEEE 1394 card.

    I also discovered that when I had a unibrain driver installed (in collaboration with the complaint OHCI driver) my camera simply don't appear in my hardware.

    That maybe I need to connect the driver OR with my IEEE 1394 card (I tried to do, but I could not)?

    In the attachments you will find a photo that shows my material.

    EDIT:

    Don't bother the problem is resolved. I think she had need of some time after uninstalling the driver unibrain to see the cam OR max. For those who have the same problem: just install the default windows driver (OHCI complaint) and install the NOR-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 driver (think my problem was the additional Unibrain driver).

  • SL500, Windows 7: Problems with the interface audio external Firewire and Digitus USB KVM switch

    Hello

    I have an audio interface, Presonus Firestudio Project, which connects via Firewire to my Lenovo SL500. On the Sl500 is Windows 7 x 86 installed. I have also 2 rudders (Akai APC20 and M-Audio UC33e), 1 Midi Interface and a kvm switch connected via USB.

    Almost everytime I make music with Cubase or Ableton Live I get holes in my audio stream. Audio playback stops just freezes for 1-10 seconds and the surface of my DAW. This becomes especially annoying when I record.

    Recently, I have disabled all devices in the BIOS except for Firewire and USB, but I am always running into the same problem. Then I got a look at the system information for Windows 7 and the saw - problems/sharing section - USB and Firewire to share the same IRQ. I'm almost certain that this is the problem causing the audio gaps.

    Is there a way to chanmge in Lenovo Sl500 BIOS IRQ settings?

    Best regards

    belochim

    After Plug and install a USB audio interface that I borrowed from a friend, I noticed that whenever I changed my KVM switch to the surface of the other PC Ableton froze for a second. The audio stream on the other hand kept and just as it was supposed to.

    The KVM switch is a "Digitus Pocket 2-port USB KVM switch" model No. "DS-11402-1".» This KVM switch seem to be a kind of diffusion in the USB bus which then interrupts the audio stream running on Firewire.

  • FireWire adapter card problem

    install an adapter card 3 ports firewire pci to capture images vdeo in my sony dv camcorder. When you try to capture or import video in movie maker and sony vegas 8 it detects no connection, but it says in the device management page is connected. Any solution please?

    Unfortunately it is all hardware problems - Yes, even when dealing with drivers from manufacturer of hardware (software) that allows the hardware to communicate with the operating system (OS) you have chosen to run.

    I would check that the firewire card manufacturer, you chose to use supports the device you have (by model) in the operating system you have (Windows Vista 32-bit or 64-bit?) and that you have installed the latest driver, they have available - see their web page.

    Ditto for your Sony camcorder.  Latest version of the Sony software.

  • Adobe Audition CS6 and Alesis Multimix 8 Firewire multitrack problem

    I have the Alesis Multimix 8 Firewire mixer and use Adobe Audition CS6 for my recording program.

    I'm trying to connect 4 microphones via XLR and run them in individual channels in the Audition, but I can't get more than 2 to appear on the program, even if I plugged 3 right now. In addition to this, I have to run the input 1 and 2 input as a mono channels instead of stereo channels to operate at all.

    I'm looking to do a Podcast with my set up, is there a better program to use to record and edit? Or am I missing a driver for the hearing or the Multi Mix?

    Thank you!

    Well, first of all the strawberry easy.  Features of mono microphones ARE so using mono channels is absolutely correct.

    In addition, you mention the drivers.  There is no special driver for hearing, but it is interesting to go to http://www.alesis.com/multimix8firewire to see if there are any updates for your mixer driver.

    You don't mention what system OS you use, but according to what it is, you should go to the Audio settings for Windows (and not in the hearing) page and make sure that all channels of the Alesis correctly detected.  You may need to set the Alesis as audio device as the default for this.

    In the menu Edition/Preferences/Audio Hardware Setup in Audition, make sure you have selected type device - I'd guess ASIO to start.  Make sure that your Alesis is selected as the default material.

    In the Edition/Preferences/Audio Channel Mapping menu, make sure that you can see all the channels of your Alesis.

    Finally, on the multitrack display, set the entry for each track to be appropriate to the Alesis channel.  If you do this regularly, I recommend that you get everything put up, then save it as a model of Session.

    And I see nothing better than hearing what you want to do... that is why it is used in thousands of stations all over the world!

  • iMac 27 2010 graphics card / ram problem

    Hello - read through the form and try to isolate the problem.  A week ago my end 2010 iMac 27 I7, 12 GB of Crucial Ram, OSX Yosemite went screwy - icons went fuzzy, and the system has just stopped responding. I tried not just pull the plug, but the computer was out of order, so I had to pull the plug. Please keep in mind it was a day hot here in New York and I've come for a quick moment to remove some files and did not close the windows a turn on the AC, so they probably overheated system or so I guess

    Anyway, after a few hours and I came back home and turned back on the iMac. Immediately, I noticed some pale red bans on the screen. The system has been restarted slowly and then it stop at halfway however and just go to the gray screen. I did a reboot, re-installed the operating system made the system check, but the failure of operating system to kick when I do a normal restart, and I am only able to operate the computer in Mode safe.

    Is there a way I can understand if the RAM is the question, the graphics card, or if it's the OS? A faulty graphics card will prevent the system from starting normally? I have the same question when I open it on safe mode?

    I'm trying to see if there is a way to save the iMac and get more use out of it, but at the same time a few years if it's gong to fix an expensive that I can't do on my own, so maybe its not worth what's now 5-6yrld of fixing iMac little matter how the computer cost me back in 2010.

    Thanks for your help and sorry if this question has been answered countless times before.

    JB

    Most likely graphics card problem...

    Note:

    One way to test is to boot from the HD, (now shift key at startup), run utility disk in Applications > utilities, then highlight your reader, click on repair permissions, test for problem in Mode safe...

    PS. secure boot can remain on the gray radian for a long time, let go, he's trying to repair the hard drive & trash/rebuild the cache files

    Reboot, try again.

    If it does so only in ordinary chest, there could be a problem material such as Video card, (the Quartz is disabled in Safe Mode), or airport, some USB or Firewire devices, or the module in part 3, Check System Preferences > accounts (users and groups in later versions of OS x) > login items window to see if she or something relevant is listed. Or a stray process eating RAM.

    Shortly, I will receive a Macbook Pro. I will be to transfer the contents of my iMac via FireWire to the Migration Wizard help. Put online to get a cable, and that's when I came across a problem. They had all sorts of configuration such as 4-pin to 6-pin. Can someone tell me what configuration FireWire cable to transfer my content from my iMac to my Macbook Pro?

    It depends on the ports; a FireWire 400 on a Mac port is 6-pin, a FireWire 800 port is 9 pins. If a Mac has FireWire, one a Thunderbolt port instead of a port, use a FireWire 800 adapter Thunderbolt.
