  • copy photos from a dvd on hard drive Mac

    I got my photos scanned on DVD and I now want to copy on my hard drive.  How can I do this?  Thank you!

    You will need an optical drive. Your computer has not one. Who scanned photos on the DVD should be able to transfer the pictures to a USB flash drive.

    Insert the DVD into the optical drive. When it appears on the desktop as a drive icon, click twice on the icon to open a window in the Finder on the image files. Select all and drag the selection to a suitable location on your computer.

  • Copying files between hard drives problem

    Hello

    I have problems copying files between hard drives on my computer. I was having this problem on Windows 7 and Windows Vista, but never met him on XP.  It seems that there are several similar topics, but I think I've noticed a few oddities in my own experience...

    I have several drives, between 500 GB ~ 1 TB.  Problems arise when I try to copy a folder with a large number of files (pictures, records about 4 GB in size, typically).  Initially, the transfer rate would be HD burst speed, somewhere between 90 MB to 150 MB.  Speed would be reduced to about 30 MB, or even lower.  The transfer ends by becomes so slow that the operation would take hours to complete.  If I try to cancel, it would take minutes to do.  The computer run slowly for a long period of time, with an offset of intermittent until I have to reboot the system.  This occurs regardless the source and destination drives.

    On some Samsung drives, this problem is actually lead to the corruption of data on the source and destination drives and i/o error messages.  CHKDSK runs at startup, try to solve the problem, but the data would be lost or unreadable disc.  I have since thrown the Samsung WD drives, do not have IO error, but the file copy problem persists.  I also disabled chkdsk at startup for all readers.

    My drivers and Bios are up-to-date.  Computer is free of viruses and malware.  I have no more trouble with Windows 7.  Curiously, if I compress my folders/files in one RAR file, I have no problems copying (transfer rate remains stable at 30 ~ 50MB).  This leads me to believe that this is not a hardware problem, but a problem with the Explorer of solutions, and that respect more particularly with the number of files transferred rather than size.  (But unpacking these files also lead to poor performance sometimes...)

    Is this a known issue that will be corrected?  I really like Win7, but because I work with large number of files and many backups all the time, stability during the file copying is a must.  I have perhaps to go back to XP, or use another OS entirely...

    I had the same problem;

    My system-

    Windows 7 Pro 64
    Core i7 940
    7200 RPM dual 500 GB SATA
    Gigabit ethernet

    Gigabit ethernet switch
    Gigabit router

    Buffalo NAS 1 TB, RAID 0, Gigabit Ethernet

    -----

    I was getting speeds of transfer of a maximum of 500 / 600 KB/s between the hard drive and network storage drive. I went through a number of * fixed * on the web without success, however, I disabled "TCP AutoTuning" and "RSS" rebooted and voila, I now get speeds of transfer of 9-10 MB / s and from the network drive.

    The fix
    It should be noted that, in addition to this, I have updated to the latest updates for Windows and off the DRC in the Windows Options under programs/features.

    How to disable TCP AutoTuning and receive scalability side

    1. Open a prompt with administrator rights.
    2. Type the following commands, and press enter (the second command on RSS is optional):

      netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel = disabled
      netsh interface tcp set global rss = off

    3. Restart the computer.

  • How to make a mirror image as a backup copy of my hard drive, including the OS Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit on it?

    I have an external enclosure. Could someone tell me where to go and read in detail in the white point step by step how to:
    1 make a backup mirror image of the hard drive of pc, including partitions and BONES...
    2. how to set it up so that I could record any change of hours produced in saved copy by doing in the future just an incremental backup every time (of only what has changed since the last backup).

    I would appreciate any detailed explanation of procedures.

    Thank you kindly.

    You can create the backup to an external drive instead of DVD.

    Repairing system drives help you start the recovery process of fixing problems starting or using the image to restore windows.

    The image does not replace an installation disk - they are a little different.

  • 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

  • Satellite A30-514: BIOS is not recognizing the CD/DVD or HARD drive

    Hi I'm having a little trouble with my Toshiba Satellite A30 friends. The hard drive died recently, and the cd tray was damaged.
    I found an exact replacement unit and we have a new hard drive, but the Bios is not recognizing the hard drive or Cd/DVD unit.

    I installed Windows Me via my own laptop and boot from the hard drive of the computer's hard disk, but it still does not recognize the DVD even if Windows does, and it is fully operational.

    This prevents me to install windows XP, the operating system it is. If anyone can help, I'd be much obliged, too, I flashed the bios with V1.80.

    Hello

    It is the first time I heard about this issue. The Bios doesn't recognize the drive but Windows is possible use it t.
    Why suggest that peut t BIOS recognizes the drive? Is it not possible to boot from the drive?
    Check if the IDE controller is enabled and the Boot section. The CD/DVD drive should be selected and activated.

  • ITunes Library copy on external hard drive

    So I just copied my iTunes library on an external hard drive and now when I try to play a song in iTunes, I get a message saying that the file is not found. I see the files on my C drive, where they were stored at the origin. What is going on?

    What exactly did you go where? See make a library of portable split. Maybe you can put the parts back together in the correct form on the external hard drive and then shift-Start iTunes to open the library there.

  • Can I transfer dvd to hard drive tv programs or a memory stick? My os is Vista professional. DVD seems to be for the most part, the VR formatted on modern dvd recorders.

    I want to archive TV shows that were recorded on DVD that is formatted in VR mode rather than in video mode. My operating system is Vista business and therefore does not include the Media Center. I can play DVDs on the computer, but cannot transfer files from their hard drive. Windows Explorer does not work unless the DVD are formatted in video mode.

  • Copy an old hard drive for Compaq laptop.

    I have a Compaq Armada 7380DMT with a noisy (noise that feels like the dentist worn forest is in your head) drive hard 4gig. I want to copy it to a disk good 6gig, with diagnostic partition.

    What utility actually * operation * so that when I install the new drive it starts in ye olde Windows 95 b instead of saying 'Missing Operating system '?

    I tried Paragon Drive Copy 9 Pro with the copy of defining raw partition and Dubaron DiskImage. Or copied the disc correctly so it could start on partition 2, but he could start on the diagnostic partition if I held F10.

    The diagnostic partition is FAT16 with a very bare Windows 3.1 on it, with the Compaq utility as shell instead of program manager program. The other partitions are a primary FAT32 and an extended with a logical partition to FAT32 partition.

    The PC that I have to do the copy with host is a laptop computer running 32 bit Vista Ultimate SP1 and a couple of USB adapters IDE laptop.

    PS, I was do this kind of things computer since nearly 27 years and still have not seen all "fun and interesting" ways to complicate the life of a tech computer companies have set up!

    I couldn't find any disk copy utility that could copy all partitions AND create the thing correctly. Here's what I figure out to make it work.

    1. with the original disc in, press F10 when booting to access the diagnostic partition. Use the options to make the diagnostic and installation floppies.

    2. make a startup with Windows 95 disk, then make a copy on C:\ of MSDOS. SYS and change the name to MSDOS. BAK

    3. right click MS-DOS. BAK, click Poperties and uncheck the box system, hidden and read-only. Copy MSDOS. BAK on the startup disk.

    4. install the new VIRGIN hard drive and start with the diagnostic disk. It will take you through the implementation of a diagnostic partition and install the configuration files / Compaq PC diagnosis.

    5. Insert the startup disk and restart. Use FDISK to create partitions. PARTITION 2 MARK AS ACTIVE. It is 2. TWO. Not 1!

    6. Restart then FORMAT C:/s so the file system will be installed. To format all the others that you have created.

    7 A:\>attrib c:\msdos.sys s h - r

    8 A:\>copy msdos.bak c:\msdos.sys

    9 A:\>attrib msdos.sys + s + h + r

    10. remove the disc, connect it and the old drive to another PC by any means. USB > IDE adapters will work.

    11. on the old disk, use Explorer to go to the volume, which Windows 95 is installed.

    12. you need NOT hide all files and to display the name of Windows file extensions.

    13. press Ctrl a to select all files.

    14 hold CTRL and click on IO COMMAND.COM. SYS AND MSDOS. SYS to deselect them.

    15 drag with the RIGHT button of the mouse on the new drive, release and click on copy.

    16. when it's done copying, stop and then install the new hard drive in the laptop. Start up and you should be to the old windows on a new drive.

    This process works even to switch to Windows 95 and 98 on a new disc using the Win 9 x computer is running. You must move the page file to the root of C:, or to another drive is not in the Windows folder. Format the new drive with the /s switch and when you copy everything, deselect MSDOS. SYS, so it will copy the basic version FORMAT installed.

    It took me a lot of research to find the last disk of Compaq PC Diagnostics making SoftPaq to the Armada 7300 series, because HP does not have it on the downloads page for the driver of the laptop. This is the version 10.40 a, sp16085 number ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp16001-16500/ here the version removes the diagnostic partition configuration option. 10.39 version has, sp12906, keeps the installation program. It's here. FTP://FTP.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp12501-13000/

    I found these SoftPaq numbers on this page. http://Priede.BF.Lu.lv/FTP/pub/OS/Datori/Compaq/Armada_4150/utility/sp16085.html

  • Copy of the hard drive. Where can I get an "edge" 44 HARD drive to a connector 44 flat plug adapter round pins?

    Hello. Anyone know how to copy the contents of a hard drive of 80 GB MK8026GAX Toshiba HDD2191 d ZK01 T to a computer? This record came from a laptop Dell Insipiron PP12L defective 6000. The HARD drive has a 44 pins connector flat male edge. I can't find any adapter that will connect this edge connector 44 flat pins at all normally used 2.5 "or 3.5" round connector pins. I have a new technology USB 3.0 Universal Drive Adapter kit, but it requires 44 pin round connector.

    If you know an adapter that can connect edge connector 44 pine flat female to connector 44-pin round, please let me know.

    My approach to copy HDD content is incorrect. Maybe you have a suggestion for a way to copy the contents of the HARD drive above?

    Thank you in advance,

    AdamWie

    Hi Osprey4,

    Thank you for your response. I found an adapter that transforms the connector 44 flat pins female connector 44 round pins. The only thing to do now is to get 44 male connector 44 round pins round pin connector cable or adapter, but this should be easy. Thank you for helping me to solve my problem of HARD drive.

    Kind regards

  • Bay DVD replace HARD drive not recognized by Windows

    I have a 7737 with the 256 GB SSD, but I wanted more storage internally and was not too annoyed to have DVD - so I bought a caddy and replaced the optical drive with a WD Scorpio Black 750 GB drive.

    When I went into administration - computer management - disk management tools, he acknowledged that the drive was there because he told me that he needed reprogramming - so I went ahead and let him. The disc quickly disappeared from the list, and I can't do anything that he can come back.

    I tried to refresh, rescan the drives, restart (how can I confirm the BIOS recognizes the drive correctly, as the "SATA ODD', but Windows still refuses to acknowledge that he is here.) Device Manager displays only the SSD and scanning for hardware changes have no effect.

    Maybe it's a coincidence, but now my laptop seems a touch slow, especially in the graphics... and I noticed that in the Task Manager, System interrupts now takes 10 percent of time CPU on average. I can't say that I've never noticed that before. My old Samsung laptop (which has integrated graphics rather than a dedicated card, to be honest) claims system interrupts doesn't take any time at all CPU. This seems to suggest a conflict any exist, and maybe that's why the drive is not recognized?

    Because Device Manager is not see it, I can't check for updated drivers.

    Because disk management can't see, I can't format / partition / assign a drive letter.

    The BIOS does not let me do anything with the drive, go into properties or disable / re-enable, or something like that.

    Can anyone suggest what I might have missed in the configuration, or what I can do to fix this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Unfortunately, I can't find a downloadable diagnosis for your laptop. Try Seatools. Seagate website has a download, that you can use to create a CD bootable or flash player to test hard drives.

    I just want to see if a tool outside Windows can detect the drive and all the problems.
