• My files on the hard drive are getting corrupted?

  I use the model of MacBook Air 2013 Yosemite running. I have a Seagate BackPlus 1 TB drive to NTFS. And I use Tuxers NTFS on my Mac to read and write files from NTFS devices. Lately, I'm sloly from knowledge that my files on the hard drive are getting corrupted. When I try to open any folder I blocks until I have remove my hard drive. I lost some files like this. Now, they are completely inaccessilble. The big sone files show even ehen 0 bytes, they are around a GB or something. I start out freak because all my data is in this hard drive. 1 TB of data. Its my life is locked in it.

  Is someone can you please tell me what is happening with my hard drive?

  Thanks in advance...

  Is someone can you please tell me what is happening with my hard drive?

  Probably not. The problem you are experiencing is almost certainly that the drive itself has failed. It could have also been caused by third party software that you use to support a formatted NTFS volume. Isolate the cause to one or the other is probably not an effort worth it, because the files themselves are probably already damaged and unusable. In this case the only alternative to certain to succeed is to restore from a backup.

  As you know the Mac FAT32 and ExFAT supports and can read, but not write - formatted NTFS volume. For this reason, if you ask the Windows compatibility, you must select ExFAT.

  You could try using the third-party data recovery software, even if success is not guaranteed. I can offer no specific product recommendations.

  If it is deleted from the memory card, it can not be recovered. However, there are some third-party applications or the tool that will help you recover photos. If you have saved the pictures on the hard drive and deleted, so you can check in the trash.

• path is too deep message when copying files to the hard disk to usb thumb drive

  am runnjing Windows professional xp and have recently begun to meet with messages saying 'Filename' path is too deep, trying to move files from my hard drive to a USB key. I realize there is a limit on the length of path, I think that 250 characters, but I'm no where near this limit. Move files with long length of path names and file with length of shortest path names are not.

  It seems that less than 100K spreadsheets okay and spreadsheets more than 100K are not. I think my problem was with Open Office but I also struggle with the larger PDF files.

  If I one of these "problem files", open ones I can't move or copy and try to save them on my drive of thimb, the system hangs for several minutes and sometimes tells me that I started recording order with an invalid character.

  I see others have problems similar encounteres on several internet forums. Is the cause of this known? Is there a fix I can install to remove the problem?

• Why whs 2011 installation gets stuck to copy Windows files on the HARD drive?

  I try to install WHS 2011 OEM on a HP EX470 software.  I have tried about 30 times without supervision and welfare facilities in the past 4 months and am very frustrated that I can't succeed and purchase the software was a waste of time and money.  I tried 4 hard drives, properly formatted capacity of 250 GB to 2 TB.  EX470 has the original 1620 AMD processor and 2 GB RAM upgraded and qualifies for the upgrade to a 64-bit system.

  Problem with installation assistance tries: Installation says "Copying Windows files", but after a variable time in hours of waiting, growth remains at 0% and finally says "error in installation.  Try to restart the installation.  Same thing happens with the help of the DVD, or by using a Sandisk Cruser formatted and made bootable 16 GB flash drive with a file cfg.ini the instructions online and also tried without the cfg.ini file.
  Problem with unattended installation attempts:  Process completely blind.  Does not install even if left for 24 hours.  Cannot decipher the flashing lights on the Flash drive and thereafter, no installation nor evidence of partial installation is visible on check the hard drive on another computer.  I suppose that the same thing as the installation attempts assisted.
  Looked for solutions online for 4 months, but nobody does the problem of Windows not to copy the files to the HARD disk during installation and what goes wrong.

• Can't access the files from the HARD drive of any account on the windows computer 7

  Hello

  When I tried to connect my Western digital external hard drive to a 32-bit desktop P 3 with a Windows XP SP1, then this HARD drive is not detected. Then I tried to copy his WD driver ITS a USB Flash drive, then isntalled all the WD HARD drive was always plugged into my computer. After that, the HARD drive was identified by computer and appear in my computer. As I thought that this folder has been created by the installation of the driver, did not exist on my HARD drive before connected to the desktop computer.

  When I plugged my WD HDDagain to my laptop HP with Windows 7 SP1 64 bit and I tried open this folder, and then the main folder only opened without facing access denied, however, access to all of its subfolders, and the files inside it has been declined.

  In addition, althoguh the username admin Curernet "Mohammad" can open the folder of human "83f04ce083fb03083bb88e50", as shown in the screenshot above, it can not access all of the subfolders, files in the main folder, and to access, I will need to use the scecurity tab. Thus, it would be absolute nonsense, if I want to have access to all of the subfolders, I will need to use the security for each tab.

  How do I gain access to all of the subfolders with use of the Security tab once the time (i.e. as long as all subfolders are inside the main folder, then simply use the main folder security tab?

  

  As long as the current username "Mohammad" can open the folder of "83f04ce083fb03083bb88e50" man, "Mohammad" is so allowed system to have access to the main folder as shown in the screenshot above, then I think that the username 'Mohammad' will have to reach all subfolders as well. However, when you try to open any subfolder or file, then the current user 'Mohammad' name could not have access to all of the subfolders in the main folder and all subfolders or files opening gave me this error below (screenshots below)

  

  

  I tried to remove this main folder, however, each time, I found myself with a loop "you need permission SYSTEM to make changes to this file.

  

  Original title: file access denied

  Groan.  It is so easy to fix, and you should have gotten a lot better support now.  Surprisingly, the worst suggestion came directly from the "Microsoft Support Engineer" Reda Singh, his suggestion potentially compromising the security of your computer while doing absolutely nothing to solve the problem.  Fortunately, it seems like you didn't do something quite right and so the script was not run.

  First of all, let me explain why this difficult access occurs in the first place.  Originally, you had three 'users' granted access to training, SYSTEM, Administrators, and Mohammad.  SYSTEM allows Windows to read your disk, and retrieve things like its label.  It can also allow your antivirus software to access the drive.  Because this OPTION is enabled, Administrators is not accomplish anything, even if you are an administrator.  As long as this OPTION is enabled, this permission only works for programs, that you manually raised to run as administrator.  This leaves access to the drive depend on the last entry, Mohammad.  The problem is the SID behind Mohammad is only good on the computer, it was created, so if you connect this HARD drive on another computer, no access is allowed!  Enter the security on the other computer dialog box, you can either see something "could not read permissions" or you will see the SYSTEM, directorsand a third entry with a long series of numbers.  It's your first computer Mohammad , and it will not work on another computer.

  It is not surprising that you're facing this problem because you are using the drive on multiple computers, which is running XP that is not UAC.  Here's how to unlock a storage drive (in Windows 7) so that it can be normally accessed in any PC without any permissions problem:

  1. Press [Windows] (or click on the circles to start), and then type "user account control".
  2. In the search results, click on "change user account control settings."
  3. Drag the slider to "never notify".
  4. Click [OK] to confirm the changes and restart your computer.
  5. Open Windows Explorer, right-click on the affected drive, and then click Properties -> Security (tab)-> [Advanced]-> owner (tab)-> [change].
  6. You should be on a dialog box that asks what you want to change the owner.  Click on Administrators.
  7. Check Replace owner of subcontainers and objects, and click [OK].  Windows should start processing all the files on the disc.  This may take a few minutes.
  8. When it's done, click [OK] to close the property message and then close out of all other dialog boxes.
  9. In Windows Explorer, click the drive affected again, and then click Properties -> Security (tab)-> [Advanced]-> [edit permissions].
  10. Now in the dialog box Advanced security settings , click the button [delete] repeatedly to remove all permission entries.
  11. Add SYSTEM and grant full control.
      1. Click on [Add...].
      2. Type 'SYSTEM' and press [Enter].
      3. Check full control in the allow column and press [Enter].
  12. Add Administrators and grant full control.
  13. Add users and grant Full control.
  14. In the dialog box Advanced security settings , you should have three entrances of permissions: SYSTEM Administratorsand users, all granted full control.  Check "Replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable from this object" and click [OK].
  15. Click [Yes] to confirm the replacement of permissions.  Again, Windows start to process all files on the disk, which may take a few minutes.
  16. When he finishes, close to all the dialog boxes and check that all records are now accessible.  You may have to refresh (or close and reopen) explore to see the changes.
  17. Assuming that it worked, we will re-enable UAC to reduce the vulnerability of temporary security, that we created earlier.  Press [Windows] and then type 'user account control '.
  18. In the search results, click on "change user account control settings."
  19. Drag the slider to the position below the top (position #2, by default).
  20. Click [OK] and restart your computer.  Now, the files remain accessible.

  This should straighten the permissions of your disk storage so that you can use it again.  You may need to empty the trash on this drive after changing permissions.

  Don't do this procedure on your C:\ drive, it will seriously reduce the security of your Windows installation.  This is for the readers of storage only.  If you need access to a specific file that you created to C:\, you can safely do the steps above on this issue, but never on the C:\ drive itself.  Please note that when you perform this procedure on a folder instead of a hard drive, you will need to replace this step #10:

  10. now in the dialog box Advanced security settings , uncheck the box "Include permissions can be inherited from the parent to this object" and click [delete] to confirm.  If some permission entries remain, click [Remove] until they are all gone.

  The concept is the same in Windows Vista, even if the exact steps differ from the foregoing at least Windows 8.  In Windows 8, you must also disable UAC with a registry tweak because, unlike Windows 7, UAC remains on even when the value of "Never notify", giving rise to all sorts of problems in Explorer tries to work with file permissions.

  Oh and to answer one other question I saw you ask from the beginning: this folder of the .net Framework was created by .net Framework Installer.  He breaks all the rules and frustrating unpacks his junk everywhere where it feels like.  I got it decompress on a front SD card, making the installation would take forever.  After installing the .net Framework, you probably disconnected the drive before restarting your computer, so these files let me.  Or the installation crashed and started you again.  Meanwhile, installs the failure left its Temp files behind.  It was supposed to remove the folder when the installation is complete.  You can remove safely as the folder manually.

• How can I get all the files from the hard drive in the non-working Compaq Presario CQ62-411NR

  Ice tea seep keyboard laptop, and after drying it feeds on. If I try a hard reboot, it is stated that I would lose all the info in the memory and I can't afford to lose my mother pictures that are on the hard drive. Is it possible to get the hard drive to work in some other way so that I can get my photos and other files.

  You can remove the hard drive and put it in a USB Enclosure.Plug USB port, another machine, where you should be able to go through it and copy your photos off on the hard drive of the host computer.

  Example:

• XP is not start properly, important data files on the hard drive, location unknown such as e-mail addresses, individual emails and favorite links on Internet Explorer. The system is damaged irreparably, what is the solution?

  I need ideas to solve this problem.

  You can retrieve the data without being able to get into Windows. The methods described require a certain level of computer skills. You know yourself best, and if a better course of action would be to take the machine to a local professional with a good reputation instead. If you choose to do, do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

  1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd, or copy it to an external hard drive. I prefer not to do it if I know the drive is infected because he has a chance to infect your host system. In these cases, I use #2 below.

  2. you can start the computer target with a Bart PE (XP only) or Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or Ubuntu and retrieve the data in this way. This has the additional advantage to tell you if the problems you are experiencing are hardware or software related because if the computer behaves perfectly in Linux, you know that Windows (software) is the culprit. Conversely, if the computer behaves badly under Linux, you will know that there is a hardware problem. This is general information on the use of Knoppix for the recovery of data when you do not have Windows:

  You will need a computer with two cd records, one of which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB thumb drive with enough capacity to contain your data OR an external USB hard drive. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD *. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or free ImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created, and Knoppix will be able to see the files in Windows. If you use the USB key or an external hard disk, right-click on its icon (on the desktop) to get its properties and uncheck "read only". Then click on it to open it. Note that the mouse action by default in the window manager used by Knoppix (KDE) is a simple click to open instead of double-click traditional MS Windows. If you want to burn CD/DVDs, use the K3b program.

  * If your computer has only an optical drive and you want to use this drive to burn data or need to test drive, you can create a USB bootable Linux instead of a bootable CD. This site will show you how to do it- http://www.pendrivelinux.com

• How to install Win7 on new hard drive and still access all the files from the hard drives of previous Vista?

  I currently have a Windows Vista PC. It has two SATA drives, one with the operating system, the one I use for storage.

  I want to buy a new SATA hard drive and install a new copy of Windows 7 top.

  I want to know the steps to follow to do this. My plan is this:

  1. turn the pc power off and open the case.

  2. remove the old hard disks

  3. plug the new empty hard drive

  4. turn on the pc and the insertion of the disc to install to Win7 for DVD-ROM drive

  5. enter in the bios and put the DVD-ROM as first boot device

  6. install win 7 on new hard drive.

  Is this correct?

  Because my next question is important:

  7. Turning off the computer.

  8 reconnect the two old hard drives. New total number of SATA drives connected = three.

  Now when I restart the PC and login to Win 7, it lists two other drives as, for example, D:\ and E:\ readers?

  How can I make this work?

  Thank you very much!

  Thanks for your reply, but I don't want to dual boot. I just want to have the hard drive as the master drive Windows7 and the old two drives as slaves, where I can access files as the pictures and letters.

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Well, I would disconnect all drives hard current interns, then connect the new hard drive, reinstall Windows 7, re - attach the old readers as slaves and copy all the data you need to on the disc of Windows 7.

• How to organize files on the hard drive? (Not in collection). Lightroom 6, Macintosh

  In Lightroom-6 I want to start to organize photos on the hard drive ("issues").

  (At a later stage, I want to import photos from years back as well).

  I want to organize in "Years" and "month".

  from pictures of the year 2004: I want to create a folder named '2004' in this '2004' - folder I want to create subfolders 12 (months) appointed etcetera 2004-01, 2004-02, 2004-03, 2004-04. (01 = January, 02 = February 03 = March, etc.).

  It should look like this:

  2004

  > 2004-01

  > 2004-02

  > 2004-03

  > 2004-04

  > 2004-05

  etcetera.

  In the LR - app, I think that I am not able to create folders on the hard disk. I created folders in the "masters of Lightroom" - folder, but he won't show as expected in the LR - under 'Files' app after you start Lightroom.

  Before you begin to move the photos to the new folders created, I want to assure you the LR - app can still find later.

  Anyone got a good method or perhaps a statement-link? Other advice most welcome as well.

  Thank you!

  Arnie

  The import dialog box may create the calendar folder based upon import photos that are organized differently in the existing folders. Use the MOVE or COPY option. The instructions are here (see section 5): https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/help/import-photos-video-catalog.html

  In addition to the above, you can also organize using keywords.

• CC has deleted the contents of a file on the hard drive of my iMac

  I've updated CC Thursday, 2/11 at 14:37.  At approximately 16:00, I went in Lightroom and advised that he could not find files containing all my photos (330 + GB).  I checked the hard drive, and the folder containing these files was empty.  I went back to Time Machine and copied the files in the folder-which took more than two hours.  I checked my HDD before retiring for the night, and the record was intact.  However, when I checked again the next day, the folder was empty once more.  I was informed by others on Facebook there are people facing a similar problem with the latest version of CC.  The contents of the first file on the hard disk is deleted.  Today, I restored my drive Time machine back to 2/9 - until the question is asked.  But it's something that you--and all CC users--should be aware.  This is a SERIOUS issue!  Luckily for me I had a backup (several safeguards, in fact).  But I am now 'GUN-SHY' on the use of the CC.  Any comments?

  This issue has been resolved with a update is available today:
