You can buy external CD drives for as little as $30.  You will get in until you can find a better solution.  You can consider a flash drive.  I bought a 32 GB one for $18 - they just get more capacity and lower in price.  You can put more than 45 CDs on one of them.  :-)

Good luck.

  • computer will not install an external hard drive.

    my computer does not recognize my external hard drive enclosure. I went to fry and the internal hard drive and the speaker works. I brought my computer to a friend's House and he read it to his house. It turns out that I had to put the jumpers on CSEL. When I got home and tried to plug it in, it won't read it again. I tried to troubleshoot it and he said that my mass storage device has a problem with the drivers. the thing is, he worked at the House of my friend with my computer. I do not understand and it makes me crazy. the only difference is that the reader reads to my friend's House and won't be at the mine.

    Hi danny,

    Did you use the same cables in your home that have been used in your friends?

    The physical location being the only variable might mean that a wire or cable is loose.

    The reader must be reinstalled in the hard disc enclosure.

    I recommend that you check for loose connections.

    Your PC is connected to Internet at your friend's House?

    Is there a download driver usb as a microsoft? My external USB gives an error message about the dysfunction of the usb driver...

    Most likely, it is a misleading message.  Most external hard drives do not require a special USB driver.  But check out the website of the manufacturer of the drive.

    What brand/model of external hard drive?

    The player has a power source or he relies on the USB connection for power supply?

    It worked before?  If so, what happened just before the error started?

    Please post the full error message without paraphrase.

He worked for some time as E drive but I can no longer access disc can someone give me a simple solution? Thanks for any help.

    I hope that, when you select disk management from the Console (near the bottom of the menu under storage), you will see a list of your external drives.  Just right click on any player to get a menu which includes 'change drive... letter and access paths. ».    (You know to avoid the 'Format' unless you ready for it.)

    Hello

    The error would have occurred if the services related to backup Windows could have been disabled. This can also occur due to other security software installed on the computer.

    Y at - it a third-party security software installed on the computer?

    I suggest you to check if the services are running and in manual mode.

    You can follow the methods:

    Method 1:

    Follow the steps to check if services are running. If not, restart them and check if that helps:

    (a) click Start.

    (b) type Services in the start search.

    (c) in the Services window, search for the shadow copy volume.

    (d) right click on the Service.

    (e) click Properties.

    (f) select Start on ManualType.

    (g) click OK.

    (h) now repeat the same steps for Windows backup service as well.

    Check if you find the same error trying to save using the hard disk. If Yes, proceed to method 2.

    Method 2:

    I suggest to temporarily disable the security software installed on the computer and check if it helps. Check out the link to do so:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Important note: security software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • I forgot my password for external HARD drive

    Hello

    Last year, I bought a USB HDD external 320.

    This external HARD drive is protected by a password. I have never changed the password, so the drive has the original password.

    I didn't use the disc about 6 months and now I put music in my iPod, but I don't remember the password. I know it is 1234 or certain numbers like that, but I can't access my disk :-(

    Everyone knows the original password Toshiba for hard drives?

    original title: update for the usb drive problem

    2 things really:

    Should I really all these updates unhappy? My computer spends much more of his time fiddling with updated it and update that never it does nothing I want to do. (Where do you want to go today? I want to lose my afternoon watching this stupid update new thing!) I'm sick of forever updated. And...

    I keep losing my 1 TB ext HDD. My computer won't find it. I do a restore to when it was visible, and I can use it. Then miserable update starts messing around again and I lose it. It seems to me that the update is hiding my ext drive.

    Any help much appreciated

    see you soon

    Hello SidBloggs,

    Did you first disabled automatic updates by following these steps: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Turn-automatic-updating-on-or-off

    Once they are off have you tried every day updates individually and you determine who updates is causing the problem with your hard drive?

    Maybe it's just that the update interferes with the driver that you have for your hard drive and it may need an updated driver.

  • Mobile LR catalog for external hard drive

    I'm new and in the process of learning LR.  Currently, all my photos are stored and developed in my laptop, but it becomes too much for her hard drive.  I am thinkinng to move all of the LR catalog to an external hard drive.  Could someone please give me some advice how to proceed safely and also how to point LR to its new location, when I open the icon.

    Thank you very much.

    I am pleased to announce that the project has been successfully completed. Thanks to the advice of everyone. That's what I did:

    Some new pictures, asking them to be stored in a subfolder created in the new external hard drive G: has imported. This issue, namely "My LR Photos", is intended to store all my photos in LR in the future. I thought that this will force the G: drive is displayed on the Panel in my LR records. He did.

    Then, in the LR on the Control Panel folder, I moved each subfolder of C: drive for the new folder photo in G:. All photos moved smoothly with their predetermined data intact. None should be reconnected to the original sound.

    I relaunch LR several times to make sure it works and you have no problem at all. It seems to work faster now too.

    I want to thank all three of you for taking interest to share your knowledge and help me to do this without pain.  Best regards.

    Special note to JimHess: I really appreciate your conversation with dj_paige help air cake2 with his problem on another thread. I had a almost the same problem with my LR and worked it out well based on your and dj to air cake2 information.
