  • How to move files on external hard drive for Macbook Air (El Capitan)

    Hello.

    I bought a new macbook air last week. I've been moving files from my old laptop via my hard drive (my ultra 1 TB WD Passport). I was able to move the correct files on the drive, but now I want to move photos and videos to my Macbook, but it won't allow me. It shows a circle of gray with a line through it, when I try to drag the file on the disk. Photos and videos are in the documents in the finder not in the photo library, I don't know if that makes a difference.

    Any help will be really appreciated.

    Thank you

    How did the external drive connected to the MBA? I guess that via USB? The freestanding photos/videos or are they in iPhoto or Photos?

  • C external drive for MacBook Air

    I need an external drive C ONLY for transfer applications such as TurboTax, iBank, etc disc to hard drive on the MacBook Air. Bought an external drive of C & computer recognize no more disc stuck in drive C. visit mandatory at the Genius Bar to eject the disc. Genius used Apple and immediately recognized hard drive. My very small requirement & will use player for videos, music, photos, etc. Probably use no more than 3 times a year. Intended to save a few $$$ to by not buying is not Apple drive.

    I'm on the right track? Number of external market readers if some should work correctly. Now very hesitant, but he must overcome this obstacle.

    Thank you

    What is external drive C you mentioned? External DVD drive? It is probably not entirely compatible with your MacBook Air.

    If you have another Mac that has the DVD player, DVD sharing would be best way rather than using your C drive.

    Use the CD or DVD drive from another computer with your Mac - Apple Support

  • Is 128GB hard drive for macbook pro enough space?

    I intend to buy a new macbook pro retina, I have a MBP (2011) older currently.  I am concerned about the space on the new MBP.  I want based on what I've read, I have to buy the 256 GB version, but as someone who is not downloading music, (flow), I also run movies/tv, the only thing I really keep it on my computer there's picture. At the moment, my main storage for my pictures is my phone, I've used so far about 11 GB just for that.  Other that that, I could see myself downloading maybe a show of film/tv and from iTunes, but I look at those on my apple TV or simply download on my phone so I can take it to the gym, and I delete them after I'm done watching.  I'm mainly looking to buy a new MBP for school, my only current became a bit slow and clunky, and I think it's time for an upgrade. Don't you think that the space will be a problem for me?

    Thank you!!!

    Hi Spencermatt1989

    If you choose to buy the 128 GB version, you can still use an external hard drive or SD card for your photos and other data to save space on the internal drive. I use a card of 128GB SD I leave my iTunes store and photo library.

    I solved this problem and am running.

    I realized at some point a year ago or so, I did try and migrate directly into CS3 from my other laptop and it would not run on AIr. I don't sue him right there. I tried to uninstall all files with the Adobe uninstaller utility, but nothing happened. So I just trashed all records. I also ran CS5 Cleaner, on the traces of CS3 just for the hell of it.

    Tried again to install directly from the disc via cd player external and viola, work like its supposed to. I suspect all the downloads that I had set earlier would have worked had I trashed all the CS3 files earlier on the airwaves. Thank you.

  • Remove movies from the hard drive on Macbook Air 2015

    Hello!

    I have several movies I have on my iTunes account.

    So I don't think that they would be automatically downloaded on my hard drive. I just thought that it would be similar to the Iphone you might access via WIFI but not necessarily have downloaded to your device. I'm looking for how to remove movies from your mac on other forms. None of them have asked me.

    Go to iTunes movie right click and delete it. empty the trash, restart the computer. Well by clicking on remove fair skins film of your iTunes purchases and don't take them to the reader. I still only 40 GB to 128 GB storage after the 'removal' of movies.

    They suggested also go to the finder and on the left side of the screen would be a zone of movies. No, it isn't. There's nothing to the media either.

    I'm lost and completely new for the Mac.

    Help...

    Shauna

    The movies have been downloaded via iTunes? Have you looked in the folder/Home/movies/on your computer? You can also check the folder/Home/music/and the other files in this folder to find the files downloaded.

    If you can find the films listed in iTunes, then select them and CTRL - or RIGHT click to select Remove from the context menu. We should ask if you want to move to the trash. Click on this option.

  • Anyone have links the Bootcamp Driver for Macbook Air 15 inches (early 2014)

    I just downloaded and installed windows via bootcamp 10.
    I used the wrong drivers when I installed it and I can't download it from bootcamp itself due to errors of system and the internet.
    So I need drivers for windows 10.
    If someone has the drivers installed on their computer now, or the files for them, if you could please link me to them (upload to mediafire or another host may.)



    On a side; note It seems that all drivers are working perfectly fine (for example the drivers from the internet), yet the Apple that will be.

    My trackpad will allow only my cursor across the screen and left click and my keyboard integrated special functions (i.e. keyboard lighting, volume buttons, screen brightness, forward backward to pause/play)

  • How to partition a hard drive for a B50-70 for Linux? No problem with that?

    Hello

    How to partition a hard drive for a B50-70?

    I want to install Linux and keep Windows 8.1 also.

    This will affect the software factory example: back up hard drive function, OKR?

    Problems partitioning B50 of the 1970s?

    Is it acquisitions have 8.1 Windows on a laptop Lenovo-B50-7?

    What will happen if I got rid of Windows 8.1 operating system?

    Thanks in advance.

    Information on the machine:

    B50-70

    Model name: 20384

    Windows 8.1

    I've not seen / heard of successful use of the flash drive for recovery purposes. The default software using optical disk, when I used it on my G580.

    If your laptop does not have a CD / DVD burner, you may need to contact them directly to discuss this option.

    As to where he is? It is a hidden partition on the hard drive, is usually not accessible.

    Cloning the hard drive can not return to that partition hidden - it would be a little bit the clone of the drive to work.

    I recommend to download your manual of maintenance on the Support site and learn more about the 100% specific for your laptop recovery process.

  • X 40-replacement hard drive for more capacity - CD

    I have a 40 X, which works fine, but I continue to faced with 15 GB hard drive capacity, so now have a replacement of 60 GB.

    Find a CD with Windows XP and especially the drivers on this subject, I can't.  Looking at the other sections of the forum, I start to think that a CD was not necessarily initially sent with the X 40.

    If this is not the case, how can I create a CD with the drivers and the Windows original XP?

    If a CD is provided with the system, how can I get a replacement if outside the warranty period?

    I had the same problem with my x 40. I bought a device cloning for 45.00 on ebay and was able to clone the larger hard drive and it worked. It validates, it is still a legal system as far as microsoft is concerned. I used it on ibms, valleys and a gateway. what you do, is leave your old hard drive in your computer and attach your new appliance of cloning. He will hold through the usb port and will copy all of your old drive to the new. It will leave everything on your old drive and you can keep it for a backup in case something happens to the new. the device is called an alley to apricorn, the accompanying software is called ez gig II cloning software. There are 3 different connections on the device you can clone any hard drive that is done.  your drivers will copy, your files, movies, all programs, it will be just copied to the new.  If you don't want to install the software on your old drive because you do not have the room for it, you can go into bios and set your computer to boot from a cd drive, and you can start from the cloning software.  It takes about half an hour to clone your drive.  I was buy x40s on ebay without hard drives and cloning of new readers with my original drive and then install the new readers and all valid by microsoft. It works really, and I believe that it's the only way to do it.  Apricorn has a web site where you can no doubt but it but its cheaper on ebay.

  • I'm unable to open Adobe Illustrator on my newly replaced hard drive in MacBook Pro.

    I am unable to open Adobe Illustrator on my newly replaced hard drive in MacBook Pro. I get "Error 16". I get a window that says: error in Configuration please uninstall and reinstall the product.  If this problem persists, please contact Adobe technical support help and mention the error code displayed at the bottom of this screen.  Error: 16 http://www.adobe.com/support/

    If you tried to transfer the software from one drive to another while it is probably the cause of the problem.  Adobe software must be installed using installation files.

    Did you uninstall and reinstall as the message suggests?  Uninstall and use the CS cleanup tool before you try the reinstall.
