• How can I identify the name of the invisible file for a backup file successfully to an external hard drive USB2 separate? I use Windows Vista backup program (Service Pack 2),

  How can I identify the name of the invisible file for a backup file successfully to an external hard drive USB2 separate?  I use Windows Vista backup program (Service Pack 2), and I need to do backups plus two from other computers on the same external hard drive.  To do this, I think I would need to identify each backup file separate I know which file to specify if I need to do a restore.

  How can I accomplish this? The program does not seem to give me the ability to specify a file to which to write the backup during a given session files.  In addition, I do not understand why I can not see the file name in Windows Explorer - my files options are defined to be able to view hidden and system.  Would be grateful for any help you can provide, tonight if possible.   Best regards, Oliver for Norm

• Cannot drag files from the new iMac on my external hard drive that is already in use

  I have a Seagate external hard drive that I used to back up files because my old iMac had difficulties. I bought a new iMac and can access the backup files, but cannot move the new files for the Seagate.

  In the Finder...

  • "Go menu > computer '"
  • Select the drive in question, use ' file > Get Info...' to view details on the disk. ".
  • You can see the value of "Format"? Expand the sections if it is hidden.

  Please publish the value of 'Format' here please.

• Is why VMWare Workstation v8.0, failure to launch a hard 52 GB file, stored on a Western Digital 4 TB big, MyBookLiveDuo external hard drive, model 2713D?

  The error message indicates that "the file is too large!  However, the application runs perfectly, if the hard same52 GB file, is stored on the disk D: from the host machine!  (The host operating system is MS Windows 7 Enterprise).  Thank you!

  The double disks have been formatted by Western Digital, (However, the format is NOT specified by WD). I guess that the format is NTFS.

  Not sure why you assume that NTFS because it is not a Microsoft device.  NTFS is a file system developed by Microsoft and as such WDC perhaps owner to have a license to distribute a device formatted in NTFS and that would probably increase the cost of the device.  Anyway, WDC uses a free Open Source Linux OS to control the "Personal Cloud Storage" device and there format ext4.

  Please note that the application works perfectly fine, if the same hard 52 GB file, is stored on the disk D: from the host machine!

  I will not use a VHD of monolithic, when running on the network and use a split disc.  I would also consider using a prealloue disc split if it was reasonable in size compared to the size of its content.  It will be much better if you are using Snapshots and or repair disk if necessary, and when run through a network expect to have a disk problem.  Besides that if she doesn't have the "Personal Cloud Storage" device at this size and be a monolithic virtual hard drive then you really don't have much choice only to convert a disk of split!

• External hard drive causing Finder freeze on two different Macs

  I have had this problem since I upgraded to Yosemite. I recently replaced my old for a PCie 512 GB (Mac Pro) and faster SSD AngelBird SSD (MBP 17 "), respectively, both with clean install of the operating system and migrate my data above and the problem persists.

  Someone else has this problem of Finder having a complete collapse if one or the other hard disk is connected (any type) or Finder is asked to find something (for example to download the tracks on SoundCloud or WeTransfer) using any web browser, or know if this question (I know other people suffer from) is set by El Capitan?

  Thank you very much!

  This looks like a problem with your external drive. I recently had a similar problem that turned out to be a bad PSU (power supply) on the outside. The upgrade never helps when there are questions, it may exacerbate them. This happens without the connected external?

• How to use the book of fonts with fonts that are installed on the external hard drive

  I have all my fonts to a folder on an external hard drive. How can I use font book to manage these fonts? I want to keep on the external hard drive, not book fonts move them to my main hard drive. For some reason, font book does not know where are the fonts and as soon as I show, he sets in motion all the fonts on my hard drive in a folder/library/fonts. NOT what I want! I don't want thousands of fonts clutter up my main hard drive. I just can't understand how the font book. Only option, I can see, it is 'Install' and it is then the copy begins. I read and tests all day and I just can't understand this. Thanks for your suggestions.

  Font book handles only the fonts that are present in one of the folders of fonts on the startup disk. It can disable these fonts, but it won't work as a custodian of the fonts installed also. I would have suggested using a symbolic link to the folder fonts on the external drive to ~/Library/Fonts, but apparently that no longer works: allow to use symlinks in ~/Library/Fonts

• Can I get my favorites on an external hard drive that I use as support? I have Windows 7 Edition Home Premium.

  I've been backing up my computer with Windows 7 Home Premium on an external hard drive. I've been using manual backup when I plug the external hard drive. I tried looking for the folder of Firefox but can't seem to find it. He recorded with all of the other files and folders, and if so how do I enter it?

  Your Firefox profile would have the data. You can find it at:

  • C:\Users\ < Windows user/login name > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ < profile folder >
    • The file you want is called places.sqlite

  You can copy this file if you want to restore your bookmarks to your current Firefox back to C:\Users\ < Windows user/login name > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ < profile folder > and overwrite the current file. Keep in mind, this will delete your current bookmarks.

• You can use an external hard drive with the Mac Mini?

  I've seen videos that say that we cannot increase the ram on a min of Mac, but I'm curious if this works like an ordinary computer, if we can attach an external hard drive to store some of the memory to free up space. Sorry if this is something stupid just need to know what I can do with it.

  You can use an external hard drive to boot and run with any Mac. Its not going to improve or replace your ram. If you use a mechanical hard drive in any Mac then help and boot from an external drive, especially if it's a SSD will be significantly faster.

• Use LR5. Because of volume and the size of the photos, I use an external hard drive. When opening LR5 it references only the local hard disk. How can I change the refernce to read the external drive. Thank you

  Use LR5, due to volume and the size of the photos, I use an external hard drive. LR refers only the Local Drive C not outside. Where do I change this by LR read the external drive. Grateful for the help.

  Thank you

  LR is not a file Explorer. He knows only the disks that you imported photos of.

  If you have previously imported these photos, then later moved into the external hard drive, go to the library files and "update location" Panel on the files that you moved.

  If you have never imported these images on the external hard drive, perform an import by using the option 'Add' (not ' copy') to keep the images on the external hard drive during import.

• External hard drive USB

  Primarily for backup purposes, I have connected via USB, a new external hard drive to my Compaq Presario (using Windows 7) but I don't see how to access or use. Removal and replacement of the plug USB produce noise sound from the PC that I expect.  Start/computer shows no signs of the element. Start/devices and printers displays an icon for the item, but clicking on it gives no response.   Where should I go from here?

  AHA!   I think you're right about that!   The power, I mean.   It ran OK on laptop from a friend and I tried all the USB ports on my PC but with no joy there.   I think the answer will return for an Exchange or a refund and get a different model.

  I return it for an Exchange/refund and get a USB 2.0 in this case.

• Satellite L300-110 USB external hard drive is no longer detected

  I used my external hard drive via a USB connection for a while normally, I wanted to remove most of his files and only keep my important files. After I restarted my laptop it now is no longer detected

  My external hard drive model is HTS54101 0G9SA00
  Connected via a storage drive HARD Portable USB 2.0 Phillips

  The USB ports are ok, I plugged a USB optical mouse through them and it works, and sometimes the LED on the Phillips turns red with still no detection of my laptop.

  Please advise, I lost my mobile hard disk of 100 gega?

  Sounds like the hard drive has failed.

  The only thing I can think that you can try is to update your Chipset drivers. I don't know if this will fix the problem even if, as you have pointed out that the machine can detect other USB devices already.

• external hard drive is missing. But drive turn on!

  Hello

  My Iomega external hard drive seems to be missing on my mac. But I see the drive light on when you are connected to the USB port.

  I use an old iMac & an Iomega hard drive that worked without problem. I took travel & when I got home, I connected on the iMac, but I don't see the icon. I find deposit on Finder & also I tried turning / slideshow, external drive on Finder.I see all other connected external drives but not this one. I do not see it listed in the disc utilities. I tried to connect to another Mac & still have the same problem. Can someone tell me what is happening?

  I've never used the Iomega drivers on the mac, but everything worked well. Do I need to download Iomega drivers?

  It seems that the Iomega company is more then what I do and who should I speak?

  I use the last BONES of El capitan.

  Any guidance will be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  If possible, try a different port or a different cable; the light in the external hard drive enclosure

  can work OK, while the data flow uses different threads in the cable. In addition, the housing

  (also known as speaker) can have bad elements which could affect the ability of

  the internal hard drive. You may need to get a replacement suitable for box

  Use with this hard drive inside.

  The old drivers of this company would be unnecessary; the recent OS X has all the people.

  There are several reasons why the external drive may be badly behave. Between the

  cable, taken & /or port and failure internal circuit that connects the drive

  inside the computer outside, these can be remedied by the use of replacement cases.

  So there are words that can mean 'wardrobe' of 'accommodation' - or "case."

  If the unit is based on port-power supply through the USB cable only, other issues can happen.

  Most of my closed external hard drives use an external power supply. You can

  must obtain and use (please bring extra) quality additional backup included the HD discs.

  For examples, see OWC macsales.com. Specifications and information are here.

  Sometimes, you can use disk utility to see if you can get an external drive to be 'seen '.

  and if so, do 'mount' - sometimes the other question, trying to unmount or eject.

  At this point, close to 12:30, I hope the case is something simple. A cable? A port?

  In any case...

  Good luck & happy computing!

• iTunes library to external hard drive works on pc and mac

  Hello world

  I have 1 pc and mac 2. I also use the music library to icloud. However, it depends on the internet connection.

  so, I was wondering if I can put the "itunes library" file on each laptop, the "itunes media" while on the external hard drive?

  My idea is to use an external hard drive whenever I want to use the laptop. so I don't need to broadcast through library icloud music. Moreover, I need an external hard drive and itunes library to work on pc and mac.

  Cheers!

  See make a library of portable split. You will need either a for OS X NTFS driver or driver for HFS + for Windows in order to use the drive with an operating system. Also note that there is a delay when you first launch after passage of one BONE to the other.
