Cannot add again invited in Fusion 7 hard disk file existing (VMDK)

Hi all

Since the upgrade to Fusion 7 (and MAC OS 10.10) I can't select an existing VMDK file to add to a newly created virtual machine: all the VMDK files (any directory they are in) are dimmed in the dialog box.

No idea what is causing this behavior?

Thank you

Tim

Assuming the DescriptorFile hard disk exists s ("Virtual Disk.vmdk" vs binary scopes for example "Virtual Disk - s001.vmdk") with disc type twoGbMaxExtentSparse that only the hard disk DescriptorFile not will be not grayed out when you try to add an existing drive so that the only other thing that comes to mind is permissions.  Normal authorization on the hard files by default is 0600 or - rw - from a Terminal.  BTW, I have no problem adding an existing drive to a computer virtual with VMware Fusion 7.

I synchronized in wmp11 but also tried to add files to wmp, but the files on the hard disk are staying to the format of the album and do not appear as they do id they are on my hard disk. is there a post hd USB RIP tab with drag and drop each song in a record high desk then copy of thumb? all the files were on my old computer with windows xp and it was much easier to use it. WTF.

    Hello knottywolf,

    ·         Have you tried to copy the files from the external hard drive to the flash drive?

    ·         What are the type of files that can be played by your car stereo?

    ·         After a synchronization of devices, have you tried to copy the tracks instead copy the playlist?

    If you are not able to transfer the playlist directly from Media Player, you should try to copy the files to your external hard drive from Windows Explorer and paste them to the USB.

  • Location of the bookmarks on an old hardrive that is not Windows, running but the old hard disk files are accessed through another hard drive.

    The old hard disk does not run Windows, so access to the usual file through Windows Explorer or Firefox has not worked for me. The old hard drive is now a slave drive and all files are intact and accessible via the new Windows 7 64-bit operating system.

    You have Windows configured to display the hidden files and folders? If not, do it as soon as the first. http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/show-hidden-files#show-hidden-files=Windows-7

    Then, what version of Windows do you have on the old drive? Your profile folder must be on the way there:

    Windows XP and earlier versions:

    \Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    Windows Vista and later:

    \Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    If you find multiple profile folders, see the recent order. You find a subfolder named bookmarkbackups. This article describes how to restore the .json files, you will find: restore bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer.

    A little luck?

  • Run a virtual hard disk file in Virtual PC

    Hello

    I recently got a Windows 7 PC to replace a Windows XP machine. However, while I still have access to anything whatsoever on the old PC that I maybe need even once, I did a .vhd on the old hard drive file.

    I can't open this vhd file, because I can't find a way to create a new virtual PC with which use this virtual hard disk.

    Is anyway to do this?

    Thank you
    Richard

    Windows 7 can read files in VHD(Virtual Hard Disk) without VPC (Virtual PC).  You can make the VHD file be seen as a hard drive on the new PC. Here's how to do it.

    Attach the VHD file:
    1. right click on 'My Computer' and click on 'manage '.
    2. go in "Disk management" under "Storage" on the left side.
    3. click on the 'Action' menu on the top and click on "attach VHD.
    4 locate the hard drive file virtual you want to open, you can also make the drive read only just in case you accidentally change something.  Then click on 'OK '.
    5. you should see your virtual hard drive in "My Computer"
    Detach the VHD file:
    1. go in disk management as described in steps 1 and 2 as I explained earlier.
    2. on the bottom half of the window, find the hard drive virtual you want to detach.
    3 click on the "disk #" and click on "remove VHD.
    Good luck. God bless you. :)
  • LR stored on external hard disk files have disappeared or became not related?

    Help: I opened LR to work on some files. The hard drive where the files are stored is attached. LR has always considered all the files it's supposed to. NOW, for some reason, it only sees the files LR upwards until 2014. It does not show me the files, properly installed and already worked on several times. If I go on my external hard drive, I can see all the files after both before 2014. The files are always there hard disk, but it is no longer bound to LR. How and why this happened and how to I fix?

    Hello
    The laptop is running. And we are justified. I just talked to the man who has done the work to local ghe Geek Squad. He proceeded as follows:

    1 update the Windows operating system (OS to nu xxp) to service pack 3 using available cds which I did have.
    2 went to another computer and downloaded the drivers HP form.
    3 installed the drivers and it went online as a champion.

    Apparently the version of xp was so old that the drivers, I downloaded from HP on another computer and burn it to a cd, simply move in the laptop.

    So, no way we could proceed without saving this service 1 one 3 discs. I had actually tried to download these service packs, but all I could get was service pack 1a .who might also do not install.

    Thanks again. you were right on target, but I couldn't do it.

  • Cannot copy mp3 to flash hard disk files

    I can copy any type of files from my flash drive in my PC, except the mp3 files. An i/o device error when I try to copy the mp3 files on my hard drive and after this error, I can't access my flash disk root and records. and I have to unplug flash USB port and plug in again to access the directories in my flash. This failure occurs after you copy one (or sometimes 2) mp3 file and a few times I can even copy a single file.
    But in the other PC, I have a problem like that. in fact I think that something goes wrong and denies access to mp3 files in my PC.

    Hi Reza,

    Yes, I think so too. Given that the other flash drive works fine, the problem could lie in this drive. Contact the manufacturer and see what they have to say.

  • Cannot create custom on the dv4-1318tu HARD disk partitions

    I have the model of HP dv4-1318tu, which have 320 HARD drive. The hard drive has only two partitions (factory settings) are C280 GB) and another D20 GB), which is taken * beep *.

    But I want to recreate the so-called partitions C (60 GB), D (120 GB), E (120 GB) etc. So I tried to recreate the partitions, but all the time it takes to factory settings. No option can't change/remove partitions.

    I also tried to create the partition in disk management, but only 20 GB (factory settings D is coming in the shrink option)

    NB. My OS is Vista Home Premium. So, how do I create partitions of customs?

    Thanks a lot guys.

    After you have reinstalled the operating system with the settings I could reduce the disc 50% C.

    So now, the scenarios are:

    C drive 140 GB

    80 GB of disk D

    E disk 80 GB

    I think Yes drive C use unnecessary additional 80 GB and I can't shrink the C drive too.

    You can check the version of LR on the Help menu (System Info). Check that the version corresponds to what you think you have. However, as you use the same icon as always, it is probably not this problem but it is possible that your shortcut has changed by the operating system. Your external drive disconnected by accident? If it is mounted in the same location - i.e. the same volume name (Mac) or the letter drive (windows).
