Drive external DRIVE does not display full disk space

Hello I have an external 500 GB HARD drive and it is stated only 93GB is available. I want to format the drive to FAT32 so I can use all of the space. I know there are limitations when using FAT32. Can someone tell me how to format the drive and use the entire space? You can see the space available through properties.

Hello

Connect the external hard drive, go to my computer, right click on the external hard drive and click on format.

It will erase all data on the hard drive.

  • Problems with my slower... graphic AGA and external monitor does not display

    First of all, let me say that I am not computer savy.  I just bought an Alienware 17 June 1.  Got my AGA and installed a Geoforce GTX 980 inside graphics card.  First I tried as far as I know (which is not yet much about computers) to connect an external monitor to the AGM.  For some reason that the monitor does not display anything and my laptop States there is not all the other monitors it can detect.  Now, the other problem I have is that I run games using my AGA and when its connected I can really see my games download restless and slower.  I thought that the whole purpose of the AGM was pushed my graphics and do amazing things... not very frustrating.  Any suggestions on what I might hurt?

    Try the following:

    Disconnect the graph.

    Uninstall the video card drivers.

    Install the following driver (this version is not in the official Dell support website again, however, it has been tested by our engineers)

    Restart the system and connect the graphic amplifier and test it.

    Please let me know if this helps you solve the problem.

  • external hard drive is not displayed in disk utility

    I have a drive (2 TB) seagate desktop external hard, while the backup time machine HDD power adapter was pulled from the socket. Now the hard drive is not recognized (both on the utility disk and office) of my mac pro book works on os x el capitan, seeing the hard drive is disabled, but I can feel and hear the operation of the hard drive. Also when I hang up my iMac running os x yosemite on the hard drive can be used and seems to work very well.

    I tried to reformat the hard disk, but it has failed it is still not recognized on my mac pro book

    Hello amartnez,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    From your post, I see that your drive external hard seagate was pulled from the socket during backup with Time Machine, and now it is not recognized by your MacBook Pro. I know how it is important to ensure that you are able to connect your external drive to your Mac. I have something I want you to try.

    Because the external hard drive seems to be working on another computer (iMac), please try a different USB port on your MacBook Pro and see if it recognizes the external hard drive on the desktop and in disk utility. If so, that means you have a problem with this specific USB port on the MacBook Pro.

    See you soon!

    Here is the new mobile workstations HP Z book 17.

    Microsoft said that HP is responsible for the operation of win 7 in the first year for the operating systems pre-installed

    HP elite support doesn't know how to solve the problem with the USB ports on the two books of Z is not able to provide access to external hard drives or flash drives

    These two mobile workstations have problems of USB port with all the ports on each computer?

    These two mobile workstations have problems of windows 7 where the client has to learn how to use the registry to store external hard drives internal hard drives?

    What does do to be able to back up files on a disk external hard drive internal?

    Have to do to be able to use flash dirves with a 17 mobile workstation z book?

    This problem has been resolved.

    The book of Z 17 HP installed their software: HP Client Security.

    This software prevents the use of external hard drives and flash drives in its default settings.

    Each customer is on their own in discoverinv and the resolution of this problem.

    There is no warning.   He made no information on why a right click on a drive and checking the property do not work.

    The way in which this issue has been resolved was by a clean boot process in msconfig.

    When miscrosoft services were hidden items that remained were read.  Systematically, some were checked and unchecked, and the computer has rebooted to see if the problem was still in existence or if the problem has disappeared.

    Whenever the hard drive or flash drive has been verified.

    We were lucky that we checked to see if it was or not HP software at the beginning.  This problem was caused by the default client security HP who were to refuse all USB connections.

    This consumes a lot of time and was so frustrating.

    On the first book of HP Z 17 thin client HP security biometric authertication failed with a black screen.  The computer is about 15 days old.    All the dirvers for the HP notebook have been uploaded and then the software for biometric devices have been downloaded.  HP determined that it was a hardware failure of the biometric device, when drivers and software downloads together has not fixed the problem.  This computer had / has the same problem with not allowing communication with any external hard drive or flash drive.

    HP did wrong by not providing any information on the inside of this product the HP support assistant.

    Here's a consumer might encounter problems:

    The HP support assistant on Z book provides updates of drivers for windows, but the support phone number book mobile z is not listed.  There is a phone number, but it is a regular support, not z book mobile support or elite support.  Mobile Z book users are supposed to call the number fo elite press and the number is for a regular support on the wizard of book z mobile support.  Support assistant has cat support method and the HP chat support is not trained to book support z mobile.  There is a feature to contact the technical support and the transfer of data to the technician, and again, it goes to regular support who is not trained to support the mobile z book.  If you call the phone number provided some of the choices on the automated line includes desktop, laptop and office work.  If you choose Notepad you won't get z mobile workstation support.  If you choose work center you will get no support of z book mobile workstation.  Instead, you must have someone answer and then ask to be redirect to support elite.  On the first call, you never know that the support you are looking for is elite support until they give you this information on the next contact.

    After many hours spent barely pull on the problems of not being able to view files on an external hard drive or external dirve flash, I was able to change this HP software.  It now unfortunately produces a humming noise when parts of it are displayed.  This has not yet been set.

    It is the customer of HP security information:

    http://www.HP-ProtectTools.com/downloads/PDF/HP_ProtectTools__EnterpriseDeviceAccessManager_Whitepaper.PDF

    There was no information to reconfigure the software in the white paper.

    I was able to find a user guide.

    This guide was not and was not available through the HP support assistant:

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02292692.PDF

    Hope this helps all who are unable to view the files on their external hard drives and external flash drives.

    The thin client HP security prevents click right change of ownership and prevent changes, right-click in the security, etc..  Change of Director fails also as the client security administrator HP overides too.

    So end users must change the HP Thin Client Security so that it does not block access to files on external hard drives or flash drives.

  • Install hard drive does not display complete space after failure bootcamp

    If this problem is shallow, but I did a ton of research, and I'm stuck.

    I tried to install Windows 10 with the BootCamp assistant and there was a mistake and restarted my MBP (mid-2015, 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, 1 TB SSD). Upon restart, the partition of windows seems to be there, but when I tried to start Windows (restart now option key), I found myself with only one option, which was to start in Mac OS X. Fine. So I started in Mac and went to the wizard bootcamp again and this time, I had the option to remove windows, so I did, which was good, because I was going to just to try new BootCamp assistant...

    -BUT (here's the point of this post)-

    After the deleted bootcamp windows partition Wizard, my Mac partition was left on its reduced size, which is 901,34 Go (before "assistant" training camp, I got 999,35 GB, it's a 1 TB drive).

    I did a lot of things to try to remedy this situation, but nothing seems to work:

    -J' resized the partition in disk utility (which continued to give me errors, until I turned off FileVault), so now my SSD shows only a single partition to 1 TB in size.

    -J' tried to run first aid on both the disk (SSD Apple) AND partition (Sean HD), but which shows all go well.

    -I went through the Terminal to run the/dev/disk0 repairdisk diskutil command and it seems that the partition plan seems to be OK.

    I would avoid using testdisk, because I think I would mess something up, but if I have the right direction, I could predict the future.

    I DON'T want to format the drive and start over, because I would be really sad to have to reinstall/remake ~ 800 GB of things again (I am a music producer). And, Yes, I backed everything up, but again everything is too tedious (do once was quite tedious as it may be).

    You notice you have a recovery of 98 GB of HD, which is usually about 650 MB? What were the exact steps you have taken to address the issue that you have after that BC did not work correctly? Did merge partitions incorrectly?

  • Hard drive is not displayed full size

    Hi all... This is my first post in the forum and hope to share details on the problem that I am facing with my portable Smart Touch PC envy.

    My Lptop configuration is as follows:

    The problem started when I went to a recovery of windows from the HP Recovery Manager. Initially, before my C drive recovery showed as a space of nearly 500 GB.

    When I went for a recovery the first time she abandoned and then again started the recovery, which succeeded. But to my surprise, it gave me two options to start in one was Windows 8 and the other HP RM (ESP). As usual, I chose 8 Windows and the laptop started fine, but to my surprise I saw that my C drive was reduced to 80 GB instead of the 450 + GB of space I had earlier. I searched the net and found that HP RM (ESP) was another partition and I could delete it by typing msconfig and then switch to the tab startup and remove the HP RM (ESP) OS and just delete. It also worked well for me, but I am still unable to use the full of the hard drive I have. Support HP can tell me what I need to do to recover the complete HD drive.

    you need to expand your partition to occupy unused space.

    Run > diskmgmt.msc > enter

    This will bring up the Disk Manager. Right-click of the 80 GB partition and expansion through empty space.
