So this just started about a week ago.
Anytime I insert a CD into my powerbook(G4Ti 1gig w/superdrive, OS10.3.3), it does not show up on the desktop or in the finder. If it is audio, I can launch Itunes and see it, or if it's a DVD, the dvd player auto launches. Every once and a while a new CD will appear upon insertion, but right now it seems like 90% of the time I can not see it.
Now the other odd thing is that this happens with firewire drives too. Most notably my Ipod. The Itunes rule applies here as well, but not all the time. Sometimes, I can do nothing to see it, and must log out/log in to get it to appear. My other firewire drive never shows up at all anymore in any app or in the finder. I have tried reformating it on another mac that did see it.
I have tried all these drives and CD's on other machines and they work just fine.
any ideas?
