• 0x8078012D error code when you back up the new pc for external hard drive

  I have a brand new HP Pavilion Windows 7 Home Premium desktop/8 GB memory/1 terabyte hard drive. Just hung up 3 days ago, and after installing my software, attempted to perform a full backup with the image of a brand new Toshiba Canvio 500 GB external hard drive. I get 0x8078012D error code, without interruption.  I did a check on the external hard drive disk, and it was good. I did a check for virus on the external hard drive, and that was good. I have triple checked the settings for backup and they are as I want them to be. -What is the Toshiba external hard drive or my bad nine HP desktop computer?  I had to call HP tech support yesterday as 2 programs, I had already installed has stopped working, but also Java and Adobe Flash Player. HP technical support was not only bad in his work, but right has supported up and hard with me and talked to me. I told her to give me control of my computer and down the phone that I reported him. He wrecked settings that I had, I did a system restore on the eve of the appellant, which was day 2 of owning the new pc. Now everything works as it was and I think that the 2 programs stopped working due to a Microsoft update that I had done that day. I don't have re-uploaded the 6 latest updates from MS and pc seems to work very well, but I can still save on the Toshiba Canvio external hard drive. Last resort, I reformatted the Toshiba Canvio to NTFS, even if it has already formatted to. Still can not make a backup on the external drive. I don't know what to do. Return the pc?  Return the Toshiba Canvio?  I'm in debt $650 for these 2 pieces of metal. Help please!

  Hello

  The error would have occurred if the services related to backup Windows could have been disabled. This can also occur due to other security software installed on the computer.

  Y at - it a third-party security software installed on the computer?

  I suggest you to check if the services are running and in manual mode.

  You can follow the methods:

  Method 1:

  Follow the steps to check if services are running. If not, restart them and check if that helps:

  (a) click Start.

  (b) type Services in the start search.

  (c) in the Services window, search for the shadow copy volume.

  (d) right click on the Service.

  (e) click Properties.

  (f) select Start on ManualType.

  (g) click OK.

  (h) now repeat the same steps for Windows backup service as well.

  Check if you find the same error trying to save using the hard disk. If Yes, proceed to method 2.

  Method 2:

  I suggest to temporarily disable the security software installed on the computer and check if it helps. Check out the link to do so:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

  Important note: security software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  It will be useful.

  Just reply to us with the results. We will be happy to help you.

• Backup on external hard drive problems...

  I can't backup to external hard drive, it starts and does not say "Device not ready" then I tried to back up my laptop outside even hard without any problem. Could it be, if I tried a different USB port on my desktop external hard disk... Any other ideas please...

  Concerning

  Have you tried another USB port (your post is unclear)?

  The external hard drive has its own power supply or just connect with a USB cable?  If there is no separate power supply, disconnect all other USB devices (except keyboard and mouse) and see if that helps.

  The external drive shows in my computer?  If so, what happens when you double-click it?

  Don't show external drive in disk management (start > run > diskmgmt.msc > OK)?  If so, a drive letter is assigned? If so, what is reported to the layout, Type, file system and status?

  Only the external drive shows in Device Manager (start > run > devmgmt.msc > OK) to the title of "hard disks"?  If Yes, what is displayed when you double-click on and look at 'Device status' and 'Use of the device' in the general tab?

• backup to external hard drive, removal of the movies on computer?

  I want to know if I got back to the top of my itunes library on an external hard drive I can remove my itunes on my computer movies to save space on this subject? It is my friends computer and I don't want to take up space. And then I still see them on my apple TV if the movies are not on my internal hard drive?

  I am new to this and I wanted to know if my apple tv can stream after I deleted movies from my computer? I have no idea how it works, as far as I know I need to get back to the top of my purchases...

  Backup and deletion are not back up. Backup is always to have two copies of everything, preferably on completely separate players in different locations.

  In order to play something through iTunes, it must be added to iTunes.  You can add files from a separate iTunes drive and make them stay on the player by holding down the option key while adding, but there may be painful to see broken links if the drive is not attached when using iTunes constantly.

  You can listen to an AppleTV iCloud films apparently, but I can't provide details.  This should work for you, unless it's one of those elements is no longer in the Apple Store (and your reason to always make sure that you have a copy on your hard disks).

• Computer laptop (Vista) does not take account any new working USB external hard drive

  Hello, I'm under the latest version of Windows Vista Edition Home Premium on a Dell XPS M1210 and spin in the problems with the connection of my second USB external hard drive. In other words, when I plug the drive (a Seagate expansion 1 TB), nothing happens. Literally nothing, no notification of installation of the driver, no sound is played stating that the system recognized the device, no new entry in post working or disk management. I connected this drive on another computer running Windows 7 and it worked without a problem, so I do not suspect the problem to lie in the hard drive, but with my computer. My other external hard drive USB, a Maxtor Basics Portable 250 GB, works perfectly, but there more than two years. I bought the 1 TB Seagate as a backup and an upgrade, but I plan to go back now that there is nothing more than a big black Clipboard with a green LED clear too much room. What can I do about it?

  Hello
   
  Most likely, there is not enough power for the USB port of your machine to the external device do recognize. As a test I would have you test the issue on another USB plug.
   
  I recommend you contact you either OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) or the manufacturer of the motherboard if it is a machine of casting House and get the latest chipset drivers for your motherboard.

• Can not backup on external hard drive - "snapshot could not be created...» »

  Cannot back up the external hard drive "snapshot could not be created, please check the VSS application log and the PSP" "details - the shadow copy provider had an error" error code «ox81000019» I want to buy a new laptop, but how can I transfer all of the existing computer if I can't do a backup?

  As you go only to transfer data from one to the other files, here's a good option...

  Remove the old hard drive and connect it on the new computer using a USB to SATA connector like this...

  http://www.TigerDirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3276554&CATID=11527

  It is a very useful device to have some kicking around when you need to get data on a drive that does more boot.

  You must get permission to access folders on the old disk to the new computer and this is how you do it.

  Download the zip on the site below...

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/add-take-ownership-to-Explorer-right-click-menu-in-Vista/

  .. and it is there that find the link to the zip on the site...

  

  When you run the zip file, it places a new item in the right click menu called 'Take Ownership'

  To use it, you highlight the file or the folder on which you want the property, right click and select take ownership.

  Then a window will appear and many data authorizations through pretty quickly. When permissions have been granted, the window will close and you will be able to easily access data in the file or the first selected folder...

• Impossible to change the location of backup to external hard drive

  * Original title: backup location

  I need to change the location of backup on an external hard drive (I).  When I go into Control Panel, backup and support, it seems that the location is currently (D).  To change this, I select 'change settings '.  Then, the computer opens a new window for "Set up Backup" and begins to launch.  However, whenever I try to do the answer comes back that the computer is unable to start the program because of the error (0 x 80080005) of running the server.  I don't know what to do from here.  Can anyone offer any guidance?  Thank you.

  Hi Janis,

   
  The probable cause of this problem could arise from the security of the software interrupt services to change backup settings.

  Windows Backup backup all folders selected the first run and then it only backs up files that are new or have been modified since the last backup was made. Periodically, Windows creates a new, full of back up. Each full backup is called in a backup. When you view your backups of files, you can see all the backup periods with date ranges.

  Meet your respective questions:

  1. Yes, you can backup your data to the external hard drive (250 GB) disk hard.

  2. Yes, after taking the back upward, you can format your hard drive.

  3. Yes, the reinstallation of Windows 7, you can also restore the backup of data from the external hard drive.

• Lightroom CC backup on external hard drive Seagate

  My Seagate hard drive is perfectly functional, make backups of several programs, including CClone, Joelle, and Time Machine.

  Yet when I recently tried to backup a catalog from Lightroom CC, I get the following error message.

  
  

  "Lightroom is unable to create a folder for your exports in the location you have chosen. Please select a different location. »

  
  

  Lightroom has no problem backup up to my 2 TB Lacie external hard drives.

  
  

  I use a Mac Pro with the latest version of the OS

  
  

  Can you guide me through this?

  This is the location you have chosen, IE the folder on the drive. Create a new folder on this drive called Lightroom backups and LR point in this folder to make its backups to. In Finder Right click on the new folder that you created and make sure that your username has both read + write permission.

  Also, it's a bad idea to have a single drive for Time Machine and store other files on this disc. Time Machine should have it own dedicated player to do back ups for that is not used for anything else.

• Backup to external hard drive on iCloud > > used internal hard disk space

  Is there a way to backup disks external hard on iCloud without iCloud with disk space hard internal iMac?

  I tried an external hard drive to backup to iCloud and although it does not copy in iCloud. It also eliminates the same amount of available space on the hard drive of my iMac.

  Does this mean that iCloud only backs up files on an internal drive so it copies them from external drives to the internal main? Is this a problem external disk hard/iCloud? Is it possible to set this up properly?

  The files are logical X. This could be a logic X / question iCloud? I know the hype for iCloud said any file, but no logic X icon in the system preferences iCloud box. Set to true any file ?

  Thanks for any information you have.

  Data in iCloud cannot synchronize from an external hard drive.

  iCloud does not synchronize data from logic X.
