• How to reconnect to a personal media drive Bay

  It was very stupid of me but I unplugged the cables for my Personal Media Drive Bay when I tried to remove the hard drive for maintenance.  I didn't really attention to where the white cable that looks like an audio connector is gone.  After his return from the hard drive, I can't find the connector of the personal media drive Bay.  If I had to install the external drive, I would use a USB port to connect the player to the computer, but I don't know where this subject is on the motherboard.  I searched the internet for help entered empty.  Help, please!

  On your motherboard, you should see a connector with 2 rows of pins together. One of the lines is missing in a hairpin bend on the left side.

• Help please: Personal Media Drive Installation

  Hello to all on the Forum HP... I was hoping I could get help regarding installation a HP Personal Media Drive in my desktop HP Pavilion m7480n computer... I am a newbie and considered average at best, with regard to my knowledge with computers... So, I was hoping that someone could possibly provide me with a link, or anything else... With step by step instructions... Photos included would be a bonus... lol... lol... I'll give you more information regarding the HP Personal Media Drive that I have below... Thank everyone once more in advance for their time and patience... Have a great day everyone.

  HP Personal Media Drive:

  -Model # hd5000s

  -Manufacturer RF863AA

  Parts supplied:

  -Adapter with power cord

  -6 USB 2.0 certified Interface cable

  Hi Nacster,

  It is very possible that the previous owner disconnected the cables. Here is an document (and video) player showing how to replace or add a hard HP. In it, you will see how the Bay of the PMD is connected the hard drive cage.

  It might even be that the internal USB cable is detached from the motherboard.

  I hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.

• Problem with my Personal Media Drive hd1600

  Hello

  I have a problem with my HD1600 Personal Media Drive.

  After formatting, Windows 7 can not recognize it. Only the power of the blue light is on

  in the Hp website, I can not find the driver software

  Please help me

  Thank you

  As is the case, what I would do then is to format the drive outside of the Windows environment.  I like to use a Linux on CD or GParted on CD.  Unplug your hard drive after the CD and boot from the CD that you did.  With your hard drive disconnected, there is no chance of accitentally choose the wrong drive and the PC will work fine to either that of the CD.  Format the connected USB HD1600 Personal Media Drive everything using one of the version of the Linux CD in the NTFS format.  If it is completed, the disc is OK and you should be good to go.

• Personal Media Drive (HDD) is not recognized in HP xb4 Docking Station laptop with HDX 18i

  Hello:

  This is my first post since obtaining these three pieces of equipment.

  a lot of problems with my new laptop and separate hard drive docking station.

  But this one is the most annoying:

  my HP Personal Media Drive HD10000x slips into a Bay (specifically for these players) on my xb4 docking station.

  Connected to the docking station is my laptop, a HDX18.

  Everything works very well between the laptop and docking station, except the HARD drive: it lights not or anything when you slide into the dock media Bay.

  This is supposed to be 'hot-swapable' and everything, but it is just dead.    It's new, but I hate to send it back (at my expense) if there is another problem here.

  If someone has encountered this?

  Help, please!

  Thank you

  You need to connect the power adapter to the personal media player - at the back of the dock XB4, next to where sits the personal media player.  So there are two adapters CA / CC plugged into the XB4.

  Hello

  Maybe you should first check if there is no access to all the files that are stored on external HARD drive

  I put t know how it works with your external HARD drive, but if I want to remove my HARD drive safely the new window opens and I get a USB mass storage device called option.

  If I mark this USB mass storage device and press STOP then a new window opens and I get 3 different devices;
  -USB mass storage device
  -Generic volume
  -USB HDD device

  If I score the first two options then my HARD drive crashes but if I choose the last of them then I can remove the HARD drive safely

• HP Personal Media Drive 1 TB

  Since 2009, I used the HP Personal Media drive on my desktop PC HP Pavilion a6152n with no problems. I was using Vista without any problems.  My computer has 6 usb ports and they all worked like a charm.  I used media player for all my backups, smartphone and computer.  A few days ago, I've upgraded to windows 7 and were not able to use my media player since.  My computer will recognize the usb ports when forced, but lists the media as unknown device player when he admits to all.  I tried to update the driver without result.  I uninstalled the device, disabled the device, tried to assign a letter to the reader all to no success. I'm finally to the point that when I plug the drive on the computer, the computer tells me that I have to format the drive to use it.  The drive has been formatted originally under Vista.  I'm afraid that if I format it now, I'll lose all my files.  Help, please.  I point out that I took the car to work and this computer using XP recognizes the drive media and actually allowed me to open the files.  The computer at work is about 10 years old and very basic, no dvd drive, etc...  I also get code 43 when you try to update the drivers.   Thank you.

  make the number of days!

  Hello

  Thank you very much!  My computer now recognizes the PMD.  I was able to open some files, and they seem to be OK.  Once again thank you.

• HP Personal Media Drive - cannot get support

  Hello

  I tried to look for a "soft" or etc. but has not found category. I hope that I write to the rgiht category.

  I have a HP Personal Media Drive that I am attemptign to solve problems

  hd0000

  part # rf863aa

  500 GB capacity

  The problem I have is when I connect the drive to the system, it says device not recognized USB. However, he keeps making connection/disconnection noise notise. Bing bing, do. Bing bing, do. He did this continuously until I have unplug the USB cord or power.

  I tried the following

  I have tried 3 different PCs

  I have tried 2 different cables

  tried it on windows 7 as well as windows 8

  I feel that it is a real problem with the drive itself. I tried disk management, but I know that because this prevents the disconnect/reconnect the disk and not can not connect successfully, it seems like there may be a problem of internal material with the reader.

  My major problem is to get to this issue. Today I have the support of google # and looking for where to get help. I found this page

  https://h22207.www2.HP.com/ca-en/contact-HP/product/HP-HD5000s-personal-media-drive/model/RF863AA#Z7...

  Does not help very much

  I called this number

  1-800-474-6836 (1-800 HP INVENT)

  I now at calle 4 times. I get a call centre in India. They tell me that I need to talk to the accessories Department.

  I had transferred there and waited 20 minutes and hung up. So I called again. Once again, they me transferred.

  I tried 35 + minutes, had somone on the phone. After spending 15 minutes to get all the part numbers, etc serial numbers - it was obvious that they then had no idea what to do, they still have me once I was in the bad service I was calling not to the United States and Canada.

  They me transferred again and I was transferred to a number of key busy/false.

  I called back once again, even once said that I needed to be transferred... not too impressed at this point.

  Nobody has been able to give me the # direct I should call either. I'm really frusterated. Help, please?

  This device has an external power supply, I would first of all that. Resist the ear and check the that continuous rotation.

  If it's running, plug the USB to a rear port. It may take 5 minutes to initialize. If you hear click (s) and then no rotation continues, it's probably in bricks/dead.  HP offers no repair service out-of-warranty units. (1 year).

  Disassembly (different flavors for different design cases). Adapter for the device.

• Unable to access HP Personal Media Drive in Windows 7

  My wife desktop PC has failed.  I need to access the data on the HP Personal Media Drive and it attached via the USB port on my Windows 7 laptop.  However, the drive is not recognized and Windows says that there is a driver error.  However (a) according to HP, there is no Win7 drivers for this drive.  (b) according to Microsoft, the drive is compatible with Windows 7?  How the hell can I access this disk?

  Click on 'start '.

  
  In the search bar, type 'Computer management' (without the quotes). Click on the program icon that shows up (should be at the top of local search results).

  Search in the left pane of the window 'disk management '. If you don't see it, click the arrow to the left of "storage".

  Look for a drive that is not titled "allocated." If you see one, check to see if it is the same size as your Media Player. (A 1 TB drive will show as Go 931,51, etc..)

  Right-click on the unallocated disk, then click on 'Create a Simple Drive'

  Go through the wizard using the default settings. When the screen where you can name the disc, name 'HP Media Drive' (or whatever you want).
  Once the wizard is completed, wait a few minutes while the disc formats. Then open 'My computer' and the drive will be displayed.
  Right-click on the icon, then click on "Create shortcut" If you have a desktop icon to access the drive.

• I lost all my media files after removing the battery for blackBerry Smartphones

  My employer asked me to remove the battery from the phone, as they had no trace of the IMEI no to my phone.

  When I reinserted it all my media files - videos, sound time and pictures - were gone.

  Again, I have all my contacts and continues to receive emails from work, so the phone had not been restored to preset.

  I have never had a media card, so all the files are in the phone's memory, are they retrievable?

  Now when I use the phone it wont let me not record a video as it is also no card inserted media. It wasn't a problem before.

  Why the battery would cause the memory to wipe?

  can anyone help?

  What is a device issued to the employer?

  You are on a BES (BlackBerry Enterprise Service) business account?

  The card is inserted correctly?

  Options > memory, made it sets out a memory card?

• When I deleted a picture of my MacBook, why it also remove the external hard drive?

  So I tried to help my wife to free up space on his MacBook Pro by putting all of his photos on an external hard drive. After iPhoto slide the hard disk and wait 40 minutes so that he could transfer, I wanted to make sure it worked. I ejected the disk and then plugged in. Of course, all iphotos were still there. Just to be sure, I deleted one file in the folder on the computer's iphoto. I went to my shock and horror, the external hard drive, that it has been deleted it too! How is that possible? I've been scouring the Internet trying to retrieve this file with no luck. It was not in the trash. There is a tab "recently deleted". Time machine was not turned on. iCloud shows nothing. I can't download any software, because the computer is completely filled. How is it possible that by deleting this folder on the computer he did also leave the hard drive? AND it has not been saved in the trash? I have used PC, and whenever I need something in return, he was ALWAYS in the trash. And if I deleted something on the computer with an external hard drive connected, it would NEVER be removed from the external hard drive at the same time. I'm so frustrated and feeling SO bad that I deleted a folder with important pictures of our kids. Is that what I can do to recover the pictures? Any help is greatly appreciated.

  You used Time Machine at all? I see you say it was not on, but it never on and is at - it a backup Time Machine on the Macbook Pro?
