• Backup of the recovery file, but will not write (well tested) USB

  Yesterday ran backup file recovery in the HP Recovery Manager. Got to the end, but USB key was too small - had to cancel the program and buy another USB key last night.

  Today the program is completely but allow me not to click 'Next', so it will write to new (good) USB.

  Is there a file (log or something) that should be deleted, so I can get this backup done? How can this program be so simple that it does not recognize that it has already completed the backup file?

  Quite frustrated with that. Does anyone have a solution?

  Thank you

  Figured this out - FINALLY!

  Once the backup of the recovery file is complete, select the drive that you want to send to and GO!

• BlackBerry Passport USB broken, how to make a backup of the contacts?

  Hello world

  USB broken on Passport, incoming device for extended warranty replacement, need to backup my contacts. Oh and the battery at 9% and does not obviously.

  Tried to Bluetooth, passport says that I need to enable Internet Tethering, but Internet Tethering says battery is too low.

  Tried by wi - fi, but not backup Blackberry link Wi - Fi (Blackberry Desktop on Windows 7).

  The USB absolutely does NOT work. When I plug it in with the original and oldest charger Playbook charger, the display cycles between charge/no display connected to once per second. When it is plugged into a Mac, the drive appears then disappears.

  Passport was soaked when I got caught in the rain. Recently updated passport to update to the latest OS10.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  You can try InTouchApp for BlackBerry World contacts. It is very good for the backup of the contacts. Otherwise, if you saved your contacts in your email, then you need not worry, you can synchronize when you set up an account the next time. Good luck with the replacement!

• Admin oassword failed usb would be my Norton backups have the password

  USB backup for administration password did not work would be Norton backup have the password

  do not have a used computer at least forgotten admin password tried to use the usb port as he asked it remained red and did not work have some backups Norton wonders if they have the password somewhere on the

  Drive failed because you have changed the password after you have created the USB password reset disk.

  There are many options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:

  • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Use the password indicator (works only if you have created a hint and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password).
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
  • Ask your friendly computer dealer to reset the password for you.

  Backups do not store the passwords that you can extract. Users can do that by keeping a written record.

• Taken to the backup of the windows operating system 8 in a USB key (as a recovery drive) but...

  Hello

  I recently bought a Lenovo laptop, Y510p, with operating system Windows 8 unique language. The guy in the store who says his best to take backup of the operating system in a recovery USB disk and said it will take at least 22 GB of space. So, I bought a 32 GB usb 3 pen drive and stored the backup in there, but to my surprise, it took only 13 GB of space. Now, can't do anything with the space remaining on the USB key. My doubt is that, after 6 months or a year, is possible to move the backup content immediately of this 32 GB disk in an another USB 16 GB of space and the boot through it?

  Hi Natasha,.

  I understand that you have created a Windows 8 USB recovery disk and you found it took only 13 GB of your USB 32 GB. So, you want to know if you can transfer it to a 16 GB USB key and delete the one that you have created on the 32 GB drive so that you can use the drive for other purposes.

  We are not able to transfer the recovery image that you created on your USB stick 32 GB on an another USB. However, if your PC comes with a recovery on the hard drive partition, you simply copy the image recovery of this partition on your USB drive 16 GB and can use it as a recovery in the future.

  The recovery image is stored on a recovery partition on the hard drive of your computer. Windows 8 built-in tool lets you copy this partition recovery from the PC to the USB key. Please refer to the article below:

• Passwords and backup of the iPhone

  Until recently, I thought that this backup an iPhone to the computer via USB / iTunes / encryption was the only way to get passwords and other confidential data synchronized between the phone and my Mac.

  Isn't it true?

  I ask because I saw a piece on a web site focused on the Mac touting the virtues of back-up via iCloud, which I do not because I want to have the data on my phone.

  Is this the case or not? Who turn in iCloud sync encryption disabled and therefore disables data Keychain synchronization?

  [I use a new iPhone 6 + and El Capitan].

  

  iCloud backups are encrypted automatically. As you know, you set a password to encrypt a backup iTunes on your own.

• How to make a backup of the drivers and applications

  I have a HP Pavilion Desktop PC all-in-one 23-B115EA, originally with Windows 8 installed which I have updated to 8.1 of the store.  After a problem, I was advised to create a System Image on an external hard drive, what I've done.  I also have a recovery disk including the recovery on a USB Partition and a new Restore Point.

  The reason why I write, is that what follows has been also sugested "Furthermore, make a backup of the drivers and Applications.» Still, if the hard drive needs to be replaced, you will need to install all the drivers and perhaps some applications again for which you have this backup. "I don't know how to do on the PC and I was wondering if it was possible.

  Best regards, Mike-01

  Mike, you're welcome.

  I know that in the past, there are third-party programs that could back up the drivers, but I could not find one to win 8.1.  With respect to applications, the CD recovery and Image will be all you need.

• Dell Bkup & Recov Premium fails to initialize the disc ext USB

  Hello

  Already posted at the forum of Win8 in error - sorry.

  Once using pre installed version of base to factory and backup to two key USB drivers, I just upgraded to premium. My XPS Win8.1 recognizes my new drie empty of Usb3 (1 TB primary NTFS) Dell Séverine allows me to select the USB drive as destination backup but to start creating a rescue disk, the training of "initialization" phase always fails with a 'disk initialization error' would appreciate advice on how to solve this problem. Thank you, Paul Kelley

  Can't answer my own question is solid, but this seems to be corrected by using windows eplorer player manager to change the default player of the ext USB drive letter and re-formatting of the blank disc on windows. The software Dell then seemed to acknowledge properly the ext driveand makes it available as a destination for emergency backups. Note that the Dell software has created a new partition of 500 MB for a backup bootable system, leaving the rest of the partition of the orginal store backups of the user. Lesson learned - consider reformatting a new ext drive using windows before saving/using the reader.

• What is the difference between a backup of the plant and a recovery disk?

  For me a simple question, so I hope a simple answer.

  When I got to my laptop that I created a USB using DBR recovery. It is a little more than 8 GB in size and is appointed SYSRECOVERY.

  At that time there I didn't create a backup of the plant.

  Having recently been read on things related to the re-establishment of a system in case of disk failure hard etc, I saw that Dell has said you must create USB recovery media and a backup of the plant. So, I got a new USB and today created a backup of the plant.

  Looking at it, it is also called SYSRECOVERY and both have exactly the same list of files and folders and have almost the same size.

  So just what is the difference between these 2 options (if any)?

  Or do I now have 2 USBs that will do exactly the same work to restore my laptop computer provided that the factory?

  Case there is no difference, why Dell offer both (and recommend you create both)?

  Thank you

  Technically speaking a recovery media and backup of the plant are the same. But according to the post that you saw at Dell, recovery media is a backup of backup from the factory with the files and applications that you added later. Therefore, to be on the safe side, Dell recommends to create a backup of files and software that have been added later (or is not part of the default configuration).

  The factory backup contains all drivers and software according to the configuration of the PC, and that were pre-installed on your computer.

  Generally, Windows failure, you can use factory backup media to restore the PC without affecting your personal files and software. In the event of hard disk failure, where the hard drive is replaced, recovery media will be useful to restore Windows as well your files and applications.

• How to restore Win7 backup on the new system and drive Action Center repair after disk crash

  I have a Dell which took a 64-bit disk crash.

  I created there is not long from the center of the Action, a disk repair and backup of the C: drive on a backup USB 1 TB drive.  These two events has been made by the Windows 7 Action Center.

  I have a new installation disk in the system to replace the one that crashed.

  Is it as simple restore system on the new drive that boot from the ERD and then recognizes the USB disk and backup file Action Center?

  My hypothesis is the combination of the ERD and backup Action Center will bring my system to date content calendar when they were created?

  Problems to watch?

  If your image is on a connected USB external drive, you may need to install a drive to the external hard drive in the installation process.  So you should find a driver for it and store it on a USB key so that you can install it when asked.

  Starting the system on the ERD is simple and still works.  Just press F12 at first then select the DVD drive and click Yes.

• Can we move that a backup of the Windows Image to a different drive location years still be able to use it to restore?

  I did a Windows 'backup system image"when first of all, I got my new computer and put it on a hard drive internal, designated as"D", which was intended to be used for data. I tried to do a restore, and although very "fussy" has been able to do.

  The image of the system take much space and if I had to do over again I would have put somewhere else.

  I have read that the image cannot be moved to another location or it will no longer be abel to to beused to restore from. Is this true?

  (1) can I move the image of the system upward (and parent folders he created) to another drive (preferably external) and still be able to restore from it if necessary?

  (2) can I move the image of the system upward (and parent folders he created) to another drive (preferably external) and move them back the same origin drve and still be able to restore from them if necessary.

  (3) the optimum would be a stand-alone backup on external media (such as the blu - ray, DVD, etc.) to restore from scratch, if necessary.

  I use Windows 7 64-bit.

  Thanks in advance.

  You can move your images wherever you want, but to restore from them, the WindowsImageBackup folder should be moved to the root of a drive, so you can move it to

  J:\WindowsImageBackup

  for example.  J: didn't need to be the drive that the image was made for the first time on.

  I found confusing indications that Windows might support images being elsewhere as the image during the restoration list would identify the correct date & time for the last image on the disc.  However, it would then only work with an image that I grow in X:\WindowsImageBackup as explained above.

  I managed my images using a subfolder of H:\ J:\ or O:\ called ImagesWin7, which itself has 20120205 1126 etc. subfolders.  I put some descriptive info I want in the relevant subfolder so I can see key information easily if I want to restore.  Then, I create the image & move this folder WindowsImageBackup, so I find myself with O:\ImagesWin7\20120205 1126\WindowsImageBackup and I also have a 1126\Explanation.txt of O:\ImagesWin7\20120205 of the text file that contains my notes on what I was just doing or was about to do on the system.

  What is resolved issues for you?  If this isn't the case, please let me know your remaining questions.

  It IS a big help (since this is exactly what I was trying to accomplish).

  Education path for my pictures of system includes a machine name

  (i.e. the 170453\ J:\WindowsImageBackup\MachineName\Backup 2010-12-03)

  Can I have added the word "Backup" myself as a descriptor that I don't remember.

  I also have added the subfolder/directory "MachineName" myself. I don't remember.

  Will have to start from scratch and create another backup of WindowsImage (without any writing help) and see what is the path for this image. Then attempt to restore etc and if it works then try again restore one of my old backups.

  It may be I made the backup unusable images (even if they are visible for the restore program) by changing the path and / / or folder names. Although it seems that you have also done this with your "imagesWin" directory You replace the image backup in the root directory, and then restore it?

  The only reason for all this must be able to reach and (if necessary access and restore from) one of the first images saves when the machine was new, blank before installing the software ay etc. Easier to make a bare metal restore to install Win7 from scratch, load the drivers and configure etc.

  As mentioned above, I now use ShadowProtect Desktop 4 for backups image system (including incremental images) and have found that it is great (and images can be moved to any directoyr and bootable recovery environment will restore bare metal from any location, USB, DVD, same network etc.

  Better documentation of Windows would have certainly been useful,

  Thanksfor your ideas

• Not able to copy the data on USB in WIndows 7 even with administrative rights

  I use Windows 7 64 bit and have administrator rights, I can copy data from USB but system is not allowing me to copy the data on USB. This has happened with me also, but since I change my laptop, this problem has been resolved.

• Cannot create Windows 8.1 System Image - fails with backup of the EFI

  I have problems trying to create an Image of my Surface Pro system.

  The program seems to work but then sends a message:

  The backup failed.

  It has been a failure in the preparation of the backup image of any of the volumes in the backup set. (0x807800C5)

  Additional information:

  The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file. (0 x 80070021)

  The volume on which it backup fails is the first volume - the EFI system partition.

  The backup is set to save on my Dlink NAS, that works very well for my history file backups.

  I thought that somehow my anti-virus software may be to blame, but I'm not under any third-party anti-virus software.

  I also thought that if I started mode safe mode with networking that could avoid the problem, but the backup is not allowed to run in Mode without failure.

  Can someone point me in the right direction?

  Thank you

  Alan

  P.S. I think that I misunderstood the problem: If again, trying to backup, but instead using my SIN I plug a drive in the USB, then my backup work normally (and I can then copy / move the backup on the NAS server).  Looks like this might be a D-link problem maybe: D-link box is a DNS-320 ShareCenter.

  P.P.S.  Although the DNS-320 was purchased from a major last week retailer, the firmware was version 1.0 and 2 years.  Updated to v 1.01 seems to have solved the problem: at least for a PC.

  Hi Alan,

  As you said that the problem does not occur when you use a USB drive, the problem might be related to
  connection problems with NAS.

  I suggest you send the request in the Technet forum. Technical expertise to solve these problems is available in this forum.
