View 3 RepliesI am trying to format a hard drive that I put in an enclosure, I have two of these drives and the other one works, but when I tried to format the other one, I get an input/output error, I have tried to format it on a windows, and linux box, the windows says it formats it but it just well doesnt, and the linux box would display an error message, dont remember it though. This is really getting on my nerves, It will just freeze the mac, and I get the spinning beach ball.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe hard drive in my Mac crashed recently so I have installed new hardware and need to format the internal drive to re-install Leopard. But when I try to either erase or partition the drive from Disk Utility, I get the Partition Failure : Input/Output Error message. Can anyone provide any advice on a fix for this or is it a OS error that I can't get around?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I have an IDE DVD burner that I have inserted into my powermac G4. It has been taken out of a windows computer. The drive seems to work well other than when I burn a disc it tells me that it failed... However the disk works just fine. Thats not the issue the issue is the input output error that I am getting when trying to back up my OS X disc. I found instructions that have worked but it was a pain in the @$$ to do and I wasn't able to do it from my computer due to the input output error 0 that I received... The only thing that I can think of is that this is due to the DVD burner that I have used to read the disc?? Would that be correct? I was able to complete the back up from a friends powerbook G4 no problem.

When I restarted and plugged it in, it didn't appear on the desktop. I went into Disk Utility and tried to erase it, I get the following error:
Disk Erase failed with the error:

So I then tried the following in Terminal:
diskutil eraseDisk HFS+ newdisk disk2
But got the following message:

Switched my Mac Mini (first rev PPC 2005 model) yesterday morning to find that the internal drive had vanished, seemingly. It was not mounted on the desktop(I boot from an external Lacie firewire drive as a rule. Went into Disk Utility and attempted to initialise the drive. Failed with and 'Input/Output' error.
Rebooted into open firmware as there was a DVD in the drive which I could not eject, was unable to eject the DVD using the Open Firmware command for doing so.
Began to assume the drive was completely Kaput and maybe also the DVD/CD drive as this had been acting up of late. New Mac time... Switched all my equip off at the plug last night as I turned in for bed and switched everything back on this morning and as if by magic the internal drive was there and I was able to eject the 'stuck' DVD. I have run Disk Utility a number of times and the drive appears to be fine. Also downloaded a copy of 'Smart Reporter' which shows it as being fine.
I'm trying to replace the hd that crashed in my macbook(it was 120 GB). I got a 250 GB SATA WD Scorpio Blue.

The files I am transferring are .mp4. It does not appear to care about the size of the file, it happens with small files and large files, I can transfer some large folders (2.54G). I can connect the hard-drive externally directly to the mac mini and it will transfer any file.

Make sure that the printer is plugged in, powered-on, and properly connected to your computer. Then try printing again.The printer is connected via a USB Hub, but plugging it directly into the USB Port doesn't seem to help either. I've also made sure I "woke up" the printer, plugged, replugged, etc.If I mess around plugging and unplugging, it eventually will work.

I have a mac mini (solo intel) 10.4 OSX. I have no audio output when attaching an external input source like a CD player or ipod to the input jack on my Mac Mini. Audio output from ITunes or movies clips in IPhoto works fine. I have checked the cables and connections. I have checked the "sound" location in System Preferences to make sure the "built in output" source is selected. The input volume display shows that the audio input is being registered. I have checked "system profiler" in the Utilities folder in Applications to make sure the "built in output" AKA headphone outlet is recognized.
I have the "Soundflower" App. installed but turned off.
why the audio output from the internal sources like ITunes and IPhoto music clips work but the audio output from an external input source does not? Is there some software or a driver required for audio output from an external source that is not required for audio output from an internal source?
This is probably a silly question, but I was wandering if it was possible to pass audio from the line-in on a MacBook Pro directly to an audio output? I was thinking of buying a PS3 and connecting it to my external monitor, and thought I may be able to play sound through my soundsticks rather than buying more speakers (budget is an issue!).
I know this used to be possible in the "Audio MIDI Setup" application bundled with the system, but I can't seem to find the option in the new version (maybe something to do with aggregate devices?)
I recently had a cracked panel on an old Macbook Pro 15 inch (A1260) and just replaced it with a new one. Ever since i replaced it i have had no sound. Now i consider myself an experienced mac user so i have checked under my sound prefences and it doesnt list anything under sound input or output and things are grayed out. I also had the guy who replaced my panel, who is also my friend, check everything out and he hasn't been able to figure out why there is no sound. he gave me a usb midi device that shows up and works but when unplugged theres nothing.
Another thing that has started is, video online will stop every 11 seconds, and thats with me clicking on the bar when it stops playing after the first 11 seconds.

I would like to find a way or an app that would allow me to change the input AND output sound device with one click. I realize you can to ALT-Sound icon, but you have to individually choose the input and output.
The idea is this: when I switch to a USB headphone with mic, and would always want both the input and output to be the headset.
