[access-uk] Re: Maxter 1 touch 750 problems

Andy,
I guess many of us have that problem with adapters. Mine are mostly labelled now, but I have got stuck a few times when losing one that wasn't! ...

Hi Jackie.

Now that's a good idea.  I even have their telephone number, so I'll
try it out tomorrow.

The thing is Jackie, I've got the 750 and the 300 gb drives and only
one adaptor.  At the moment a friend is busy unloading all  the stuff
off the 300 device and I'm stuck as I cannot find the correct adaptor
for the 750 in my house.

I must have about 30 adaptors in the house!  Would you believe, I
also have about 20 Remote Control units for various things.

What a nightmare!  I used to stick on a sticker to the adaptor saying
something like Sony MD, Nokia phone or Torch but stopped for some
reason, now I have a large shoe box filled with adaptors and don't
have a clue what they are for.  You are correct the ampage makes this
a more serious problem as you don't really want to burn out your
phone by fitting the wrong adaptor.

I'll phone Maplands in Glasgow tomorrow and they may be able to
describe the adaptor that comes with the 750 for me.  With a bit of
luck, I'll find it plugged into a red hot telephone or radio which is
burning out.
Thanks for the idea.

Very best wishes.

Andy.to

Hi Andy

As a suggestion, could you ask Maplin Electronics if they would tell
you the voltage of your supply for the Maxter if you are stuck?

Hi Darren

Your right mate one button and it's on the front.  I have been
using the drive the other way round so I could easily plug in the
power socket. I don't know what the button is for and have never used it. 

What I think I've done is lost the correct adapter for it.  The one
that is connected may well be less powerful than the correct one. cannot find another adaptor laying about though. 

Are you able to read, or perhaps get a friend  to read anything
that may be written on your adaptor.  This will help me identify
the correct one for my drive.

I've got loads of them around the house, plugged in to various
items, so it's possible that I've got mixed up.

Best wishes.

Andy.

Hi Andy

Yes I have the maxtor one touch external hard drive as well, but
I'm a little confused, as you say there are two buttons on the
rear of the drive. However I cannot find any on mine. The only
button I know of is the one located on the front at the bottom.

If the drive is failing to start when you switch the power on, and
all cables are securely in place.  Then I would suspect it has
become faulty.

Sorry I can't be more helpful

Darren.

Hi all.

Anyone got the Maxtor 1 Touch 750 GB External drive.
I need some assistance with mine as it no longer wants to boot. I just discovered a couple of buttons on the back of the device 
today, which I did not realize were there.  Perhaps I've turned
it off or something, anyway, I've you have one of these I'd
welcome some advise from you please.

Best wishes.



Andy.
