Tecra A11 Port Replicator - do not enable external HARD disk when securing

Hello

Had a problem with the Port Replicator port for my new Tecra - A11.

When I anchor the laptop in the Replicator, that is not automatically connecting external 700gig USB backup HDD, I have either pull the USB cable on the Replicator, or disable the drive HARD and again so he can be seen and recognized.

I never had this problem with my A8 and its replicator, I could just dock and everything was fine.

I am running Win7

Thank you... PK

Hello

Seems that Win 7 is unable to recognize the external HARD drive that is already connected to the port replicator.
I m not very good if you had to install a software for this external HARD drive, but if software is required, and then try to reinstall again.

  • does not detect external hard disk

    Hey guys

    Recently I update my macbook pro (2014) in the sierra of mac os. Since then, my mac does not detect any external hard drive I plug in it even if these drives are detected by the PC and all the files inside. I tried to open utility disk where the hard drive is displayed but the 'volume' located below is gray. When I try to hit mount said volume that nothing happens. All I could do to fix this?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi sgerolio,

    I understand that you are unable to detect any external drive that you plug into your MacBook Pro, since you upgraded to macOS Sierra.  How many external hard drives work?  How they are formatted?   If formatted for PC, they would not necessarily be able to be read by a Mac.

    You have a small empty external drive or USB key that you can test?  Formatted in Mac OS extended (journaled).  Using the Finder, you are able to see the external drive and drag a file to it?

  • Tecra M7 & express II PA3680E-1PRP port replicator do not work together

    Hello

    I ve a Toshiba tecra M7 in recent years and have just bought a brand new sealed express duplicator II model PA3680E (docking station) but unfortunately it does not work and a new replacement, sent by the provider does not work.

    What's happening:
    With docking station connected to the start; nothing happens, and the Green dock light stays off.

    Windows when I put the tecra m7 on the dock it connects and disconnects immediately then will not reconnect. The power of power port, the lan port and the power switch work on the dock, but I understand that these are just happening through connections. The Green led power lights up also for less than a second.

    For example, when I do a connection hot, windows is connection chime followed immediately by a chime of disconnection and restores, also all USB connected devices flick-on and immediately off the coast.

    I ve tried under the original Toshiba windows XP install (with the latest Toshiba) and a fresh install of windows 7 (fully updated with all the update from Toshiba). BIOS is the latest available 3.50 (also tried 1.70 & 3.20 bios). tried bios USB legacy on and outside.

    Can someone please help

    Hello

    > With docking station, connected to the start; nothing happens, and the Green dock light stays off.

    The green light that is placed near the eject button it lights up green during normal operation and must be extinguished if the phone has been disconnected.

    If the led does not light green, so I guess that the laptop is not connected correctly.

    If you connect the laptop for the first time to the port replicator, a message should appear stating the device connected to the port replicator are ready to use.

    In my opinion, there could be a problem with the pins or connectors, but the question is what may be touched connector: on the side of Tecra or port replicator

    However, I think that go you to your dealer and need to test another.

    Hello!

    Just install my new M3 and Advanced Port Replicator III. Everything works fine, but the Port Replicator is not recognized as a Docking Station (No disconnect in menu button start XP; pressing disconnect button on the Port Replicator itself has no effect either).

  • Tecra R850 - Port Replicator problem - no lan at startup

    Hey guys I have a strange bug with a laptop computer Toshiba Tecra R850 customers with the port replicator. He is 8 months old.

    Almost every morning when the client connects to the laptop computer to the Port Replicator port and power and the Windows 7 Desktop on startup it does not create a "LAN" connection (external monitor & USB works well through the Port Replicator).

    I have to get the customer to power the laptop off, disconnect the port replicator, disconnect the electric power from the port replicator and then plug everything back in and re - turn on the laptop.

    Here's what I've ruled out so far:
    Port replicator: Replicator port, I've replaced with another unit of users (exact same model), same problem.
    Directly connected LAN: if I connect the LAN directly (i.e. remove the duplicator) I have no problem with the LAN/Internet connection.

    Here is the part number of the laptop and the dock:
    Tecra R850: PT520A-01N003
    Port Replicator II: PA3916A-1PRP

    Any ideas? Could this be a faulty stowage on the phone port?

    Kind regards

    Hello

    Someone was kind enough to educate myself on this problem?

    How to view the contents of an IDE hard drive connected to the USB port on my Qosmio X 500?

    -The drive is already formatted and filled with data
    -LED lights on the outer box, but the disc is not visible in the browser...

    I got my old laptop internal hard drive and I bought a box to be able to connect to the USB port on my Qosmio in order to get my data...
    What is the problem?

    The hard drive come from 32-bit Windows XP and Qosmio with seven 64-bit...

    I need to install a special driver? use a specific software? or configure specific settings?

    Thank you...

    > What is the problem?
    Who knows? If other discs hard USB can be connected properly to the Qosmio laptop, the problem might be related to the connected HARD drive.
    So I recommend this external USB with other computers.
    If the other computers will not recognize it, so the external HARD disk is a problem

    > additional power supply is probably necessary for a HARD drive
    Maybe my HDD USB requires a cable that can be connected to the two USB ports

  • Portege R830 - external HARD disk error - "target not found device.

    Hi all

    I recently bought a 1HD R830 which has windows 7 as its OS.
    I have a few old external hard disks that were formatted on windows vista.

    When I try to use it on my new computer it says "target not found device.
    I called support for the external hardrive, who said this is an incompatibility problem and that I would need to re format external hard drives (and therefore lose all about them unless I copied them on a compatible hard drive).
    Is this true?

    Rather than go through the hassle to copy all data to another hard drive is there a way to make my new computer compatible with the external hard drive?

    Your help is very appreciated.

    See you soon,.

    You don't give much info.
    I would first go in "Device Manager" and check that there is not a question mark with "unknown device" beside him. If this is the case, highlight it and delete it, unplug your HARD drive and restart your computer. Check the Device Manager again, you will need to repeat the process without the connected HARD drive. Then follow the instructions of the manufacturer install the driver. In some cases, you will need to plug it in the first place, in others, first install the driver. The order is important.

    Hi dynamitenews

     

    1. are you able to boot to the desktop?
    2. what happens when you try to start the computer?

     

    You must have the DVD drive to start the computer using the disk, you cannot use the external hard drive to do the same thing.

    Also I suggest you to make sure you have defined the start as CD/DVD-Rom as the first choice option in the BIOS. See below the help link-
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

    If nothing is done, then you can contact the manufacturer support for assistance on setting up the correct boot sequence and check.

    BIOS WARNING-
    Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
