• External hard drive WD Element

  I had this WD element external hard drive for over a year now, which can connect to any PC or Apple, but for some reason that I myself brought recently the MacBook Pro and now my external hard drive WD Element only want work

  When she wants to. I am struggling to get it working 100% every time. I know that my hard drive works cos I have connected to my old Mac G3 and I see the hard drive, but not on my MacBook Pro. What can I do to make it work every time?

  You can try to perform a SMC reset. Reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support. (The previous sentence is a clickable link)

  Drives external WD hard seem to get more complaints than any other player. They use a chipset of decorum and cheap components and seem to be more prone to error than the other speakers. If the gives still drive troubles you, you pourriez be able to remove the drive from its case and put it in another forum. I like the housings of OWC . I say maybe because I've seen also some WD external drives that do not use the standard SATA drives.

• Can not turn HARD drive restore or create the restore on Satellite A135-S4727 disc

  Hello

  I have an A135-S4727 (Pentium dual core, 2 GB of ram, windows vista, 160 GB HDD).
  Recently, I decided to use my HARD drive recovery funtion to restore OTB ' cos I wasn't satisfied
  the way I use my hard drive.
  My system did not come with a recovery disk and recovery disc creator software (I checked it when I arrived but)
  has been re-insured by the fact that the hidden partition has been and is still intact)
  I just thought that I would start from the hard drive recovery console, whenever I needed.
  I tried to do this for always (now pressed zero, hit) but it boots to windows in any case.

  I am so angry and frustrated rite now ' cos I am out of warranty and do not know why I should come on a forum to find a way to restore my laptop.
  I googled the web for 2 days now and nothing other than similar complaints found...
  Toshiba... (X-)
  The right and the ability to restore its system is a given... (unless you plan to charge us a pc falls down for reasons every time you guys don't even know most of the time)

  Please someone end to this nightmare and tell me what to do and how...

  Boyfriend sorry but to be honest I put t understand you complaint;
  The newest series of laptops is not delivered with the recovery disk but is equipped with Toshiba HDD recovery option.
  This option can be used to retrieve the laptop computer from the HARD disk, and there is also an option to create the recovery disk.
  This recovery disk can be used if something goes wrong with the HARD drive or partition from the image on the HARD drive.

  It s highly recommended to create the recovery DVD!
  And this info is in the manual of the user who is always pre-installed on the laptop!
  I also found this info here in the user manual that can be consulted online on the Toshiba page we (the Satellite A135-S4727 is a laptop in US)

  Check it out here * 56, page of the user guide: *.
  [Satellite A135-S4727 Manual: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=1757708& rpn = PSAD0U & SelCategorie = 3 & selFamily = 1073768663 & odel selM = 1757708% 7CPSAD0U #]

  Here you will find details how to create the recovery disk.
  I put t know how you manage a unit bought new but if I buy a new device, then the first I do is consulted the user manual that comes with this device.

  In any case; I think you can order a new disc of recovery of the ASP in your country

  Good bye

• hard drive went and HP said not included in the warranty?

  I'm stumped.

  My computer would not start.

  HP now tells me that it is not included in the warranty, since it must have had spilled water on it, or dropped.

  This is not true.

  He has simply stopped working on me.

  How can they be sure that it was not a mechanical problem?

  They told me to call customer service, but the number they gave me 866-442-7029 is not correct.

  What should I do now?

  Well,.

  Finally, we have the bottom of things.

  After agreeing only not treatment of me the gift to the 866-684-3620 (I refused to accept that it is a failure due to misuse and pay the fee), it tells me that there is nothing he can do to help me more.

  "You want me to fully waive the fee and I can't do it."

  So, I asked if there was someone else, I can speak to, superior to him.

  He then "climbed the case", and I got a call a day later, Eric, whose callback number was 877-917-4380 (unit 88). It turns out that Eric is a real, American HP customer service agent. He reviewed the notes and me (hope you're sitting) says:

  Of course, the guarantee is covered and there was no user caused damage.

  The reason I received misinformation of donation to this other number was that I asked that they also return me damaged the old hard disk (that I can try to get the data off it... see this article: http://www.geekyprojects.com/storage/how-to-recover-data-from-a-broken-hard-drive/ )

  )

  and since (the hard drive broke his back) is not included in the warranty, I was being charged for an out of warranty service.

  !!!

  I told Eric that Don does nothing of the sort. He told me that the damage to the car has been documented as being caused user and was therefore not in the warranty.

  Eric told me that misunderstood gift probably notes.

  (Strange thing is that people in India or in as much that the HP number 800-474-6836, also said that the damage is not included in the warranty and I have to pay for it. When I pressed them to find out why this is so, they quoted me the number of 866-684-3620.)

  In any case, I haggled a bit with Eric and he was quite kind to put in a special request that the repair and the former player returned to me with the machine (remember, they throw out otherwise). Indeed, it has been, and I am always grateful.

  Just a couple of points.

  (1) the gift of first wanted to charge me $270 for the new disc repair. When I refused, he says can "take labor costs on and just charge me for parts... $180. Well, google it. Road costs about $40. How honest is that?

  (2) I called this number 866-684-3620 the next day and said the gentleman who responded (this time it's Mark, not Don) what happened. In my innocence, I told him I'm relaying it so that the next time someone asks the old rear drive (I guess his commune... who wants to kick back all their data), you tell them 'it was a damaged caused user. " Well, Mark told me that he couldn't care less and would not do anything with the information that I just gave him. Would not relay it to anyone.

  Later, I realized that the number of 866-684-3620 is not HP, but the number for people to Quanta Computer, which are a company who perform repairs for HP. clearly, it is in their interest to do a repair and to be paid by the owner of the laptop, not HP. (HP does not pay $180 to replace a hard drive that cost me the retail $40!)

  Bottom Line: Don't download jostled by the people of 866-684-3620. Ask that the case "degenerate." You will get a HP person and this time an intellegent and speak English.

  For other examples of complaints of people buffeted by staff at 866-684-3620 (Quanta Computer), just google

  866-684-3620.

  At the end of the day, however, I would like to thank Eric and also HP, to fix my computer and the hard drive back.

  (By the way, the best place to get the HDD replacement PCB is: http://www.onepcbsolution.com/ .) Change the pcb often allows you to recover your data.)

• Hard drive and memory for Lenovo idea Pad S10

  I have a Lenovo idea Pad S10 and I love it.  Its a great little machine.  I would like to make one or two questions please.  Can on put a larger hard drive and how much memory is the maximum.  I currently have 2 GB of memory.

  Also, I tried to do my income tax using it - I uses Taxcut and tried to install it on and the machine said he couldn't make Taxcut.  I suppose that the system is not big enough to cope.  If true that I very well because I have a desktop computer, but I was just wondering if we can get a bigger hard drive and if it would make a difference.

  No complaints at all, it's a great machine.

  Thank you

  Bobby

  Hello and welcome,

  Memory 2 GB is the maximum... 500 GB HARD drive no problem... and at least

  High resolution > 1024 x 576/600 ...

• Should media be copied on the hard drive first?

  Came today houses a few complaints of my wife on the problems with PE8 and discovered that, on my proposal, she took the card from the camera flash, put it in our reader of USB and any media files directly from there (rather than through the USB cable to the camera, as we have done for years).

  She used the command get the media, but it seems that get the media does not copy the original hard disk first, as I try to do to get the media. Can't blame him or any other user; Get sounds of media as it is the right think to click, and the images come right into the system...

  She began to make a nice slideshow with music and did a great job, until the preview window has stopped changing with the audio - I can rub, but as soon as I try playback the picture in the right preview window freezes but the sound continues to play.

  I unplugged the USB media player and, of course, the project could not find the media. It is disappointing that 'Get media' did not get the media out of the map at all. If we had taken the lead and erased and re-used the map, the media would be gone forever!

  More disappointing, now there is no reading on ALL the projects that we have, even those that have been conducted successfully with completely different media that is on the hard drive.

  Then, media must be copied manually on the hard disk before you use the command get the media to align with the project and/or the Organizer?

  And if so, is that not stupid enough? I've gotta be something missing here...

  Transfer of files to a card, or the camera HDD (hard drive) and get the media are two completely separate operations. Let me explain:

  When you transfer the files from the source to your system, you make a copy of these files on your system HARD drive. THEN, when get you the media, you are linking only the editing program (NLE) to your project. If they are still on the disk HARD of the camera or flash card, or similar, and you unplug the appliance or remove the Middle, these links are broken.

  It's exactly the same thing, when using an external HARD disk. Files are not automatically copied to the internal HARD drive, but are related to the external HARD drive. Unplug the external and pre cannot locate files. It would be the same if we put onto a DVD and then linked to files on this disc. Remove the disc, and the links will be broken. Copy these files on and THEN link to them, and as long as you do not move or delete these files, the links work.

  This ARTICLE will give you some information about what is in the project file (.) PREL). There is NO media inside those, only links.

  Hope this helps and also explains the differences between first copy and then by linking and just a link to the files.

  Good luck

• When I deleted a picture of my MacBook, why it also remove the external hard drive?

  So I tried to help my wife to free up space on his MacBook Pro by putting all of his photos on an external hard drive. After iPhoto slide the hard disk and wait 40 minutes so that he could transfer, I wanted to make sure it worked. I ejected the disk and then plugged in. Of course, all iphotos were still there. Just to be sure, I deleted one file in the folder on the computer's iphoto. I went to my shock and horror, the external hard drive, that it has been deleted it too! How is that possible? I've been scouring the Internet trying to retrieve this file with no luck. It was not in the trash. There is a tab "recently deleted". Time machine was not turned on. iCloud shows nothing. I can't download any software, because the computer is completely filled. How is it possible that by deleting this folder on the computer he did also leave the hard drive? AND it has not been saved in the trash? I have used PC, and whenever I need something in return, he was ALWAYS in the trash. And if I deleted something on the computer with an external hard drive connected, it would NEVER be removed from the external hard drive at the same time. I'm so frustrated and feeling SO bad that I deleted a folder with important pictures of our kids. Is that what I can do to recover the pictures? Any help is greatly appreciated.

  You used Time Machine at all? I see you say it was not on, but it never on and is at - it a backup Time Machine on the Macbook Pro?

• How to change back to SSD HARD drive?

  My mcbook pro comes with the original 500 GB of HARD drive. When he ran with a problem, I went to an apple repair shop. Problem was in the charts, and he suggested the HARD drive to be replaced by a 120 GB SDD. So it has been replaced, but the guy on the left HARD drive as a storage device. Moment where DDI is left with small space and when I update to OS X El Capitan of OS Sierra, it had to be installed in the HARD disk drive. Could someone please give instructions to install the new OS to the SDS to lose all my data and the current configuration and it is also possible to install windows XP on the HARD drive and 10.  Either by the way, I got Windows 10 and XP shared with the SDS via parallels. Thank you

  I think this can be useful for you:

  How to use an SSD with your HARD drive If you want to use an SSD as boot with your existing HARD disk drive, as the disk 'data', here is what you can do. After installing the SSD, you need to partition and format the SSD using disc utility disc. Then install OS X on the SSD. Once installed OSX boot from SSD. Startup disk preferences to set up the SSD as the boot volume. Open the preferences users and groups. Click the lock and authenticate you. Or CTRL - RIGHT click on your username account list in the sidebar and select Advanced Options in the context menu. You will see a field called "Home dir: ' on the far right, you will see an Edit button. Click on it. In the file dialog box, navigate to the location in house now located on the HARD disk (disk HARD/users/user_name /.) Select the folder, click the Open button. Restart the computer, as shown. When the computer starts, it will now use the home located on the HARD drive folder. Another more technical method involving the Terminal and the alias is discussed in depth here: using OS X with a SSD and HDD - Matt Gemmell configuration. It's my preferred approach because I can choose which records of the House, I want to on the HARD drive and I don't want to. For example, I like to keep Documents and library files on the SSD because I frequently access their content. Make sure that you keep the bootable system entirely on your HARD drive where you need it.

• Seagate external hard drive / / no display

  Recently I bought a Portable Seagate 2 TB external hard drive for my MacBook Air. I put all my movies, music, ext documents on my hard drive with my important homework. The reason why I did was reset my mac, then return all my old documents, photos ext, back to their place of origin. I have managed to do and frees a lot of space. A few days after my MacBook fell asleep with a connected external hard drive and now the hard drive is no longer present on the desktop or in finder. I am able to find in my "disk utility" , but for some reason, it shows the hard drive passed out faded gray and full? I tried to hook up with different cables and on the various devices as well. Also sang the first aid option in "disk utility" with no other results. I have contacted apple support and found out it was the external hard drive with the problem, so they couldn't help me. They then redirected me to Seagate Support, and I had already tried the methods they gave me (see list above). I was wondering if anyone here on communities of Apple has experienced the same problem as me, it would be that much appreciated advice you may have. I have important files that I need to recover.

  Help, please!

  Had a similar problem with external hard drive WD also on model MBA early 2015. Found if I disconnect the external hard drive restart MBA and then reconnect the external hard drive it was working normally again.

  Another thing I tried was still unplug HD plugin MBA on sector and re - a SMC.

• MacBook Pro not mounting external hard drive

  My Macbook Pro (early 2015, running Mac OS Sierra) is not able to mount my [new] external hard drive (Seagate Backup Slim). It shows up in disk utility, but the volume seems shady. Nothing happens by pressing the command mount or performing first aid. Kindly help me out here.

  Hi vishesh97,

  Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!

  We understand your question that you have a new external hard drive, a backup Slim Seagate, which does not appear when you connect to your MacBook Pro.

  Allows because it is a new hard drive, try to clear the disc first and formatting for Mac OS extended (journaled). The instructions for this process are found in the article below:

  For Mac disk utility: delete a volume using disk utility

  See you soon!

• My computer with two hard drives and 2 starting systems has the car crash in the solid state. When I got the new drive and tried to restore from time capsule, I lost some data. How can I see what backups are on the time capsule? My laptop is also backed u

  My computer with two hard drives and 2 starting systems has the car crash in the solid state. When I got the new drive and tried to restore from time capsule, I lost some data. How can I see what backups are on the time capsule? My laptop is also saved to the time capsule. Everything is in 'Data' when I look through the Airport utility. I think that the information that I've lost are still there since I was a Capsule 3 to.

  Time Machine backup to a sparsebundle.

  The sparsebundle will use the share name of computer. So, it should be obvious who is your Macbook and that is your Macpro.

  Open the sparsebundle in Finder and keep open the subfolders until you get to the backup of each separate hard drive...

  You has of course set the exclusion in Time Machine?

  By default, Time Machine will exclude your second drive unless you have included it. Did you?

  Once you get to this level during the backup, you can do a full restore manually whenever you want.

• How to recover data from my macbook pro drive to an external hard drive?

  My Mac pro does not work. Is it possible to back up my data through safe mode? Problem is that I accidentally deleted my last backup in my external hard drive. I'm just trying to retrieve photos and videos.

  Perhaps. What happens when you start up the Mac normally?

  You have another Mac?

  This Mac starts to recover? (need of Lion or later)?

  What version of Mac and Mac OS model?
