  I do not use homegroups, but 'true' to share, so I don't know how this is supposed to work with homegroups. But usually he should share a drive or folder, first before you can access it from another machine. (for example, click on the drive/folder properties and go to the sharing tab)

• Tries to access an external hard drive get the error "system error 1130 has occurred."

  I have an old box with Windows XP Professional SP3 installed that I use as a file server. I installed a 2 TB external hard drive and set a couple of actions on it. Everything worked fine until 2 weeks ago when I lorsque je pouvais pouvais join is no longer to the actions of one other machines of the network: whenever I tried, I got:

• User with limited XP Home Edition privleges can not access an external hard drive

  I can't set up an external hard drive in Windows XP Home Edition so that a user who has 'Limited' privleges can access.  The user receives the access denied message.  I tried to configure this by starting in safe mode.  I shared the unit with everyone.  If I'm the administrator user then it can access the drive.  The troubling question is that this system has been configured with the user having limited privleges as well as access to the external drive in the past.  I recently removed Norton antivirus and replaced by MS Security Essentials and I'm so glad I did.  But now it's problem arose.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  You probably just need to change permissions for access of the disk and/or subfolders.  The following article describes how to do this:

  "How to set, view, change, or remove special permissions for files and folders in Windows XP"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308419 >

  The bad news is that this article was written for XP Pro and you have XP Home.  This means that the 'Security' tab, which is at the heart of the management of permissions is not present during the implementation of the properties of file or a folder on your computer. (Or y at - it an option to disable Simple file sharing).  The good news is that if you start your computer in safe mode (repeatedly tap the F8 key when your computer starts) and log on as a user with administrator privileges, you can then obtain access to the security"" tab.  Once you have access to this tab, you can give "Everyone" permission to all of the disk if you wish.  Once you set the permissions as you like them, you can restart your machine in Normal mode.

• Cannot access an external hard drive lost, encrypted BitLocker recovery key and do not know where to enter the password to unlock it.

  I recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-Bit on a Sony Vaio. Worked great, seems awsome and rolls GOOS GOOS, for a new operating system. I decided to use the BitLocker feature that I wanted to use from Vista Ultimate, which was incredibly dificult unlike BitLocker in Windows 7, which is extremely simple to use. So simple in fact, I encrypted my external hard drive Verbatim 160 Gig where the original BACKUP files are with ALL my original documents, settings and files of the company are located. I haven't used a USB key, or don't have I recorded the RecoveryKey, I printed and completely loses it, I remember perfectly well the password I used. Problem is I have NOW, I can't ACCESS MY HARD DRIVE! When I try to access the hard drive it asked me not the password recovery key. Please help me, im in deep poopie. I wish I could change the world, if only I could find a diapper big enough to hold so many things...

  Hey thanks for the reply Kev, but I must say that I did and didn't. The new Windows 7 operating system has this feature built-in and it is much easier to use. So yes I did it, but I made using windows 7 have where, instead of download all the files, I just insert the original DVD of WIndows 7, I restart my PC and follow the instructions of recovery of BitLocker recovery key, and voila. The problem is that I've NEVER stored on this particular external hard drive recovery key. BTW: I tried to follow the steps mentioned by Mr. Vijay but inconsistent tool with my operating system (Windows 7 64-Bit) it only works with Vista (not 150 percent certain but close). Please correct me if Im wrong. I wish I could change the world, if only I could find a diapper big enough to hold so many things...

  Is it possible to access outside data by car and it is hard on the Mac

  I keep reading things on the partition and FAT32 or the disc running utilities to reformat, but I'll lose all the images on the external hard drive

  I feel like I'm missing something here

  [What should I do to be able to view my images on Mac, I will then load in Lightroom for editing [the forest of Lightroom] that I'm very good]

  Simply connect the player and open the files. Unless you need to write to the disk, you don't need to do anything else.

• Error message with (PX1394E - 3 50) external HARD drive

  I have a 500 GB external hard drive, Code: PX1394E - 3 50.

  I work perfectly until now that I have a bug in Windows XP that says "has exceeded the capacity of the hub port", although blue light turns on the hard drive and leave the mistake of putting the USB hard drive to the computer. I've tried different USB ports and well past, I tested these USB ports with other devices and whether they work, the USB ports are 2.0 and Windows XP SP3.

  HM, I recommend you to send the drive to an authorized service provider because it sounds like a hardware problem. Maybe the controller in the external hard drive has certain shortcomings.

  You do not have a format to get rid of your data.

  You do a format when you want to do a clean install of the operating system.

  As you all saved, I suggest that you continue on the new facility, then copy your data back.
