I recently installed LV2009 on a colleague's machine (Windows 7 32-bit) and DAQmx does not show up in the Measurement I/O palette. I downloaded DAQmx 9.0 and tried to install it, but received an error saying 9.0 or a higher version was already installed.
Where is DAQmx hiding?

Did you install NI-DAQmx Full, the Configuration Runtime, or the Core Runtime? Only DAQmx Full includes the API functions. You can confirm which version you have installed by opening Measurement & Automation Explorer and expanding the Software category. You should see something like the following:
If you do not see "NI-DAQmx ADE Support", you don't have the full version of NI-DAQmx installed and won't see the palette in LabVIEW.

May be software might not have installed properly,
I also have LV2009 check in the location "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2009\vi.lib\"
you must have DAQmx folder,
If the folder is present then you must have 3 folders and 4 llb's
Open the MAX software and check what version of DAQ-MX you have, go to add/remove programs in control panel and repair the software.
Also check C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-DAQ

Thanks for the tip, Seth. I have everything your snippet has except DAQmx Base 3.4. I do have ADE Support installed.

Hi!
I'm having the same problem. DAQ does not appear in the input palette nor in the output pallette. I have both labview7 and labview12, and it appears in neither.
I have read the previous replies, and i seemingly have everything i should need, here's a screenshot:
Does anyone know what the problem is?

Did you install the drivers from the Device Driver DVD that came with your latest version of LabVIEW?

DId you install the drivers AFTER installing LabVIEW 2012? That version is not compatible with LabVIEW 7, so that one doesn't surprise me at all.

Yes, the drivers should all have been installed after installing labview.
I just got the CDs for labview 2013, so i can upgrade and update the drivers and see how it goes.
@crossrulz What do you mean with "That version is not compatible with labview 7" - what version of what?

You do not have LabVIEW 2013. If they are discs you just got, it is LabVIEW 2012 Service Pack 1.
Each new version of LabVIEW requires an update to the DAQmx drivers. So installing an older version of the drivers won't work. The latest version of DAQmx will also only support so many older versions of LabVIEW. Support for older versions gets dropped. There is no version of DAQmx that supports both LV 2012 and LV7.
