  • Personal media player problem - Windows delayed write failed

    I have a 1 TB Personal Media Drive (hd10000x) which does not with my e9120f machine Pavilion Elite running Windows 7.  When I try to write to the disk using the dedicated Bay or USB connection, he wrote a small number of files (anywhere from 8-100), then an error "the system cannot find the specified file.  In Event Viewer-Windows Logs------system I get thousands of warnings "an error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk6\DR6" and "the system does not have empty data in the transaction log.»  Corruption may occur.

    This is my second personal media player, I had the same problem with the first, and he returned after spending 90 minutes online with the help of HP trying to diagnose the problem (with a friendly assistance technician yet not very knowledgable).  Its best estimate was Norton AntiVirus, but the drive did not work when the machine has been started in Mode safe and AntiVirus software has not loaded.

    The drive works fine with my old Dell laptop Windows XP, but not with my brand new HP desktop computer.  I think that it must be a driver conflict but can't find anything in the forums or elsewhere online.

    Ideas anyone?

  • Readers of personal media and Pocket for HP Pavilion M9351

    Computer on August 2008, provided operating Vista Home Edition (x 64), now set at level to Vista Enterprise.  Now, I want to buy a staff or Pocket Media Drive (or perhaps both).  Attempted to get the numbers correct reference required for each Bay, however, HP will not provide me with all the information that I'm no longer in warranty and they say they will provide "support rendered.

    I searched through PDF of computer information and troubleshooting paper, but actual part numbers not provided - only operation of the readers discussed.

    As the M9351 is now replaced I want to be sure that I buy the correct drive for my computer, Vista-compatible.  Are listed often say they work with HP laptops.  Others listed say they operate with pavilions under XP.  None say they are actually compatible with Vista running of mine (m9351).

    It seems that the personal media player is not currently available in the United Kingdom, but handheld readers are.  I understand that both drives are available in the States of the DFU for example.  If I have good part No. I guess they will work ok?

    Does anyone use media on a m9351 readers please?  Can you advise me of their correct reference numbers and if you do work with Vista?

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you.

    Readers of personal media and handheld readers come in different capacities. There is no limitation in the use for your OS. Here is a URL to the United States, http://www.shopping.hp.com/can/computer/categories/storage_solutions/1/accessories

  • Personal Media Drive

    I have a HP Media Center with window7 64 bit m7767c CN.  The case has a slot for a personal media player. The PMD is a HP 300Gk. The computer will not recognize the PMD the power light is on and the indicator light flashes sometimes.  I can remove the PMD power with external power cord and plug it into an external USB port of the computer and it works fine. I suspect a spirit cause the motherboard because there is power and the light flashes at the time.  However, I can't get the computer to recognize its existence when it is plugged into the connector on the computer.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    [email protected]

    The crack of the PMD is a USB port. (You said that he had the power). I would examine the internal components. You can detach the connectors and try them manually. Also check the USB connector at the head of the motherboard. Is it waterproof?

  • 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.

  • Power of Personal Media Drive power cable

    Since I bought my computer, I got the personal media player that comes with it plugged into the Bay. I wish I could plug it in to the usual with a supply cable and USB power. I have the box AC adapter which plugs into the drive, but the cable that plugs into the box has become lost. I get it, I don't know what it is that I have a box with many cables that I have collected over the years and it might be one of the few. I've lost hard drives in the past due to bad power connection and I was hoping that someone would be able to tell me which cable I need.

    The personal media player came with my HP Media Center m7260.uk desktop PC and the power supply of the housing has the following number: 1200-B206

    All but one of the cables I said 10 a on them. One who is different to 16 has on it. In fact, I think it could be this one, but as says the entry in box of 100-240V 1 has one of these cables would be perfectly safe to use? As I said, after blowing hard drives in the past to connect the wrong adapter, I'd rather be safe than sorry all the help on this would be really appreciated. Thank you.

    I would say all power cable that corresponds to the adapter would be OK. The current absorbed by the adapter will be very low. The indique.65 mine has max. As long as the cord tension designed for your area, you will be OK.

  • HP Personal Media Drive and Win 7

    I just upgraded my HP computer elite e9120y from vista to windows 7. Everything went well until I tried to use the personal media player in the Bay of the computer.  The computer recognizes the drive and installed the driver.  The player will start to work, but after about 30 seconds, it freezes.  The power light is still on, but it is no longer read or write data. Using the computer increases by about 10% to 70% and stays there. After the hunt, the use is the same, in the Task Manager, nothing is shown that the use of the CPU.  Before the upgrade, the drive worked fine with any of these problems.  I tried to uninstall the USB ports and restart to have reinstalled them, also tried to remove the drive from the computer and reinstall the readers. I still have the same problem.  It will work for awhile, then freezing, uses CPU jumps.          If I try the drive with the external power supply and another USB port, it works normally. Can anyone help?   Thank you

    If you use the software that came with the driver (it might come through via the upgrade?), try to uninstall or disable and simply let Windows 7 use as Plug-and-Play. If I look at HP shopping it does not list the PMD as being compatible with Windows 7, but to me it would just be the software on the CD-ROM supplied with the player. Not the plug-and-play hardware.

    If it's not that, and it's hardware related... the Bay is a big USB plug that connects to the USB headers on the mobo. For me, it tells me that something funky is listed at this place of specific header. Normally, I'd just use system restore to go back when it worked good... in this case, which might be ways to recover and upgrade again without any USB device attached... not funny.

    You can try to disconnect the internal cable from the drive to the mobo Bay, restart, connect with the external cable, safely remove, close, reconnect the internal cable to the mobo header, insert the drive into the Bay, turning on.

  • Help ejecting a USB media player

    Hey Apple community support.

    I hope someone can help me with this. I'm a decent person tech, but far from the level of knowledge that most people seem to have, so if you are trying to help them, don't forget not that I'm a novice you may literally he dumb down for me.

    Problem:

    I recently went on a trip and took lots of photos on SanDisk 32 GB cards. I have a docking station USB with the card inserted and recognized on the desktop of my MacBook Air. I started to transfer the files from the folder DCIM by selecting all the disk and try to move them to a folder I created on the desktop. The file transfer was fine, but time consuming. After an hour or two, I told him to stop copying. This function has never been resolved.

    Solution try so far:

    I try to eject the drive by dragging it to the trash (showing the eject icon when I go on it) and I get the message, "volume cannot be ejected because it is currently in use...". »

    I open the activity monitor and tried to find the name of the reader, who is not listed. I left the USB drive options in the activity without result monitor. I can still see the red light on the media player.
    I don't want to damage the photos of this once in a life journey, so I have not removed the USB media player without eject properly and did not attempt to stop the machine as one, that can be bad... and two, I doubt he'd let me without forcing an abandonment, although it may help me identify what process to kill so that I can restart.

    Any ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions?

    I have what looks like most of the pictures in a folder on the desktop, is simply not sure if it's to each of them... and the problem so far (I don't know if it's because the media is always 'in service' or not) I can see the icons .jpeg, but he cannot click on it to see the pictures... (again once I guess because it is in use) but I'm afraid of losing data if they are not transfer completely...

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Finder sometimes has problems when it receives a large number of files to copy - but this isn't a problem. On the other hand your initial problem (the copy of the slow copy files) may be due to a problem with the card. Once you have copied the files to reformat.

    Failure of the Finder to leave a copy command is a fairly common problem that can be solved by stopping Finder. Hold down command and Option and then type Escape. This will bring up the menu to force out. Choose Finder and click Restart. It should restart on its own. If it doesn't, try clicking on the Finder on the dock icon. Sometimes you don't have the choice, but force him to leave the computer when the Finder dies suddenly. (Hold down power for 10 seconds).

    Because Finder has not left the copy files are in fact still in use. Leave the Finder should solve this problem. Even if files in use error that appears you should get the option to force eject restarted Finder. Who will be safe to do so. Ejection of strength so that files are read is not dangerous - when they are written that it is.

    Finally, try to copy a small set at once and not any map in one fell swoop.

  • Satellite R630 - Media Player stops when you watch DVDs

    Hey,.

    When I want to watch a DVD, it must first about 5 min until the R630 can play the movie. MainMenu works no problem, but when I want to start a real movie there a big delay.
    Then after seeing about 10 minutes, the Windows media player stops the film and I have to wait 10 min, until what it continues still.

    Does anyone has the same problem?

    Is there a solution?
    Thanks for help.

    Hi pressure,

    Have you noticed this problem with a DVD only, or with all DVDs you have?

    You should test another player in my opinion. VLC media player is the best for audio and video files because it s freeware and can play all video and audio files. You can download it here:

  • 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.

    Hi, I have a Presario desktop computer that was originally Vista but upgraded to Windows 7.  He apparently died, but the contents were backed up on a disk HP Personal Media, model hd1600s.  I want to restore some of the content saved for a new cell phone ENVY with 8.1 but I learned that the media player is not compatible with 8.1.  Is it possible to restore files or otherwise draw from the media player so I can restore/load them on the URGE despite the incompatibility?

  • Satellite P200 - battery not charging everything by running Windows Media Player

    Not sure if there is a specific problem of Toshiba, but my laptop does not charge while I run WMP. I have to close WMP, and then reconnect the power cable so that it can start loading. Also when the battery is less than 20%, it seems stop loading. I have to keep the withdrawal/re-connecting the power cable all the seconds until I get a proper load.

    Any help?

    Hello

    I guess this question appeared not right the first time
    Well, in my opinion has nothing to do with the fact that Windows Media Player is running, I think that it s a battery but problem is only my personal opinion.

    In my opinion you or your laptop technician must verify if the same thing would happen if one would use the new battery
