When I plug the ext. harddrive inside automatically so reads the news on it?

  It has been fixed thought

  I had posted a question on my Ext. harddrive, my windows xp Media Player recognizes new music I have add out of it, but all my computers which are used to windows 7. then I myself especially when I add the new music on the hard drive for media playyer on xp I have spend the toolbar and click on file, then click Add to library computer search and it adds to the media player library. but windows 7 does not have this option. I noticed if you click file, and then manage libraries, and then the music lets me add my Ext. harddrive (e drive) to the library list. on a computer it support of new music and videos found on the hard drive, on two computers it just music, so I downloaded a song and a video on the hard drive, plugged into the computer and media player says that it has been updated of library, and yet there they never found the new files. Why have they changed? XP was so easy. new is not always better!

• How to get personal files on a backup external hard drive for windows 7

  How to get files from a backup external hard drive for windows 7 pro. ? I DON'T WANT TO RESTORE WINDOWS 7, JUST MY PHOTOS & DOCUMENTS.    TO THANK THE TAXI 53 DRIVER

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

  Thank you for details on the issue.

  You can restore backed up files lost, damaged, or accidentally modified versions. You also to restore files individual, groups of files, or all files that you have saved.

  If you are restoring files from a backup that was made on another computer, the files are restored in a folder under the user name that was used to create the backup. If the user names are different, you must navigate to the folder where the files are restored.

  I suggest you use the steps in this article and check if it helps.

• External hard drive for source files

  Windows 7. Body CC x 2014

  I would like to set up a or external hard drives for source files so that I can change my laptop on the location of a specific project (that is to say, I can't use my office)

  What is the best solution?

  * USB 3 SSD

  * USB 3 at 7200 RPM hard drive

  Can I use two external USB 3 drives?

  Can I quote the external drive so that I have no file linking issues?  IE the volume name remains the same whenever I have to reconnect to it?

  * I ask here first of all because I have to buy the appropriate disks until I can test anything.

  Thanx.

  USB3 for SSD is the fastest solution. Set both computers to use the same drive letter of the volume on the port USB3, for example of letter P for portable in disk management. For a second port USB3, you can use a different volume drive letter.

  Simple steps:

  1. Format the drive and give a volume name.
  2. In disk management, assign a drive letter, for example P.
  3. Connect the drive to another computer and repeat step 2 here.

  The volume name remains unchanged and the drive letter remains the same on both computers.

• Network external hard drive for media sharing on Xbox 360

  Hello, I just got a new external hard drive. I put a bunch of video files and music to share with my xbox 360. I use windows media player to make the media sharing. I got no problem with it for my regular hard drive in my computer. The first time I plugged my external hard drive to my computer and transferred the files added to the library, it worked fine and the xbox it would be. But after that I restarted my computer, my xbox can't see my external hard drive. I gave her a permanent using MMC drive letter and drive management. But for some reason any xbox will simply not show more. Any ideas? Thank you.

  I had the same problem

  1. Reset the wmp library
  2. Turn on file sharing for each folder on the external hard drive, including the player itself using the same settings.

  3. remove the Xbox 360 exceptions in your firewall

• large external hard drive for editing fcpx

  Hi, a question of two parts:

  1. I was wondering how people manage their media: is it recommended to store the middle on an external hard drive and the reference to it? Or are the libraries & projects also stored on an external drive?

  2. I have about 4 TB of video and want to buy a large external hard drive that is fast enough for 4 k video editing (with proxy or optimized media, single stream, nothing too fancy etc.). I just bought the new iMac 5 k which has connections thunderbolt.

  I read a lot about love at first sight vs. speed USB3, disk hard drive gears, RAIDs etc but am not the wisest. I don't want to it is an exaggeration either.

  It would be good enough: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01BBZ4Q0C/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8 & psc = 1 & smid = A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

  Or is it better to use for backup and should I go for the version of TB: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00FIYJ7LG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8 & psc = 1 & smid = A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

  Or a USB3 would be pretty quick with a double disc is RAID0? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Book-Desktop-External-Drive-WDBLWE0080JCH-EESN/dp/B00L9 0DX04/ref = pd_sim_147_4? ie = UTF8 & PSC = 1 & refRID = YFMN75KFN652T20XB40B

  Price differences are pretty extreme and I know too how much of a real difference it would make to my editing.

  I have trouble with my 2010 macbook pro and a portable external hard drive 5400 RPM so would avoid this situation.

  Thanks in advance!

  1 - Yes, always put libraries and media on a second fast drive.  Video/audio "data streaming" can bog down the stream of data required by the operating system and the app themselves.  There is limited bandwidth between the CPU and hard drives, as your Internet connection.

  RIAD 0 is quite obsolete, stay away from him.  USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt are good enough for 4K editing.  RAID is faster than the single SSD (same).  Spins disks should always be 7200 RPM, even the system drive.  5400 is far too slow.  If you go with RAID, get a 4th unit of Bay, with 7200 RPM drives in a RAID 5 configuration.  MacSales.com has excellent products.  As promises (their RAIDS of you bolt P2 are the fastest on the market) and other well known brands.  I was never a fan of the product line of My Book.

• I've just backed up with an external hard drive for the first time, but my profile with my folders for photos, documents, and movies are not there

  Hello

  So, I finally got an external hard drive. I formatted for Mac (the device has been verified as being correct), and then he started to do a backup, which stated that a full backup would take 95GB. However, it only supported 19GB.  When I have my 'open' backup drive, I saw that only 'Macintosh HD' received support upward, not my user profile with all my folders containing documents, photos, movies, etc...

  I'm quite confused, because I thought that it would save.  I plan on Snow Leopard update to El Capitan, but if something is wrong or I don't like, I'm afraid that I won't be able to restore all my personal files - but only the applications that are on my Macintosh HD.

  Should I delete everything in my backup disk and try again?

  This is an image of what's inside my external hard drive:

  

  You have not indicated how you have saved, if you've used Time Machine then you do things the hard way and you'll find very difficult TM. Please use the Time Machine interface to locate your saved data. You can benefit from the research on:

• My Time Machine is full. Should I keep it plugged in and turned on even if I switch to another external hard drive for Time Machine backups?

  My external hard drive, Time Machine is full. Should I keep plugged in m and, even if I switch to another external hard drive to keep backups with TimeMachine?

  There is no need to keep two connected external drives. Instead, I suggest you to buy a bigger external hard drive and transfer the backups that you want from the old to the new external drive, so you can use the old external drive for other purposes-> Time Machine: how to transfer backups from a current backup disk to a new backup drive - Apple Support

• Cannot find external hard drives - Windows XP Media Center

  I just got a new external HDD two days ago in the case where my old drive never fails. I have connected both to my laptop and copy all my old files from the old drive to the new. Yesterday, I clicked on 'Stop' under 'Remove hardware safely', and both readers suddenly stopped being recognized by my computer. When I plug in, they light up and run, but their records are not displayed in my computer. I don't get any error message (or any kind of message), but they always show upward under Device Manager. I tried to move the USB cables, restarted my computer, update device drivers, do a system restore and run a virus scan (some files on my drive C: disappeared recently, however, the scanner found nothing). I also tried to attach external hard drives to other computers, but they are still not recognized. Please help - I have files that cannot be replaced and the new cost of drive hard $100, and I don't want to go through the hassle of trying to get a replacement without warranty or invoice.

  Hard drives not recognized in all other computers as well? There lies the problem.

  Try to connect to some other computers (XP, Vista or 7) and see if the problem repeats.

  If so, your disks are dead (because no computers detect them).

  Download and run the utility to diagnoses of the Web site of the manufacturer of the hard disk to check for disk errors.

• Using an external hard drive for backup

  I used Windows backup backup all my files on My Passport external hard drive 500 mgs.  Now my files are all screwed up, and when I try to restore using Windows Vista I get an error message telling me "the disk containing the backup is not accessible.  Make sure that it is turned on and connected to the computer", but it is connected and turned on.   It appears in my computer.  But looked funny, are compressed files and I can't open them. How can I get Windows to recognize the device he used to back up my files?

  Unfortunately, before I had the chance to do it, a Microsoft window pops up telling me he had to download a program to read my external backup hard drive.  Then my files were not only foires on my passport, but also on my laptop.  I was too scared to try anything else on my own at this time there and took it to a computer repair store.  They managed to find all my files and all is well.

  Thanks for your comments, anyway.
