• How can I make a DVD of the restore hidden in my external hard drive partition recovery

  How can I make a DVD of the restore hidden in my external hard drive partition recovery because I want to recover my toshiba satellite L840 that does not respond directly to my hard drive so I put my laptop to an external HARD drive and then I want to copy a DVD recovery partition

  Your question is a bit confusing, you can boot the laptop at all? Have you tried booting in safe mode, you can make a recovery DVD set from there, the folder Toshiba.

  With the drive in the Toshiba, you should be able to use a F, F10, F11, or F12 key to activate the installation from the partition hidden started upward.

  Otherwise, you can contact Toshiba, and with the model of the product id number and the laptop for Windows, you can buy a set of disks.

  I went in lightroom and can't find my photos. I lost the link before and did the right click to find and they have been found, but it's different.

  I bought an external hard drive and copied some elements but did not cut their.  I did a back up on my external hard drive, but even once did not move them. I did the simple troubleshooting and it doesn't work.  I'm trying to find the original by right clicking the? on the folder LR and once I find the file it tells me that Lightroom has this file already in the catalog - and I want to merge. I tried one and it disappeared or moved. Help!

  Use the file Explorer to see if the images are still in their original location. I suspect that move instead of copy them. This can happen if you drag you the.

  I found that it is best to use either right click on a file or folder name and select copy then right click on the drive-destination folder and select Paste or use keyboard shortcuts to copy and paste folder and files from one disk to another. The keyboard shortcuts are the CTRL + key C to copy and Ctrl + V to paste in the selected destination folder-drive.

• external hard drive partition removal

  WD external hard drive has bought recently.  He had a factory partion and I can't remove it.  Disk management I tried and do me not (as an administrator) to remove it.  I can change the drive letter, but not anymore.  It shows up as a CD drive. but this is not a cd.  I have not installed the factory program that came with the disk that is on this partition (665 mb).  Rather I copied information from the computer to the disk manually (I know not so old school).  I want the missing drive, but have failed so far.  Probably should have formatted drive until I copied the data on it, but too late now (it took 8 hours to copy all the data).

  Help?

  Hello foxman24,

  The partition you make reference to contains the WD SmartWare software. So you can successfully unlock your drive on each computer that you connect to. If you do not use SmartWare and do not want this virtual CD you can disable it by following these instructions: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=YJvBcl
  Hope that helps.

• Cannot delete files from the external hard drive after copying using Robocopy

  Original title:! VERY DIFFICULT QUESTION! Files that cannot be deleted!

  I did a robocopy and he left during the night and when I came back it was in some kind of loop and my external hard drive was full. The files are not visible in Explorer and if I try to delete them in the command line that fails because some are too long. Urgent I need to redo the space on this external and copy the files to my parents and charity before fly me soon. Please can someone help me.

  * Looks like that I have multiple instances of the same files

  I don't know if you will be able to do this before your flight, but the drive must be partitioned and formatted, reformatted, or scanned for errors of NTFS file allocation table with repairs enabled. Depending on the size of the disk, this could take some time. You can also check statistics of SMARTDRIVE with a utility like Crystal Info disc to see if it is a failure.

  If you do not drive Professional recovery tools available, the native CHKDSK will do in a pinch.

  C:\Windows\System32>chkdsk /?
  Checks a disk and displays a status report.

  [CHKDSK [volume [[path] filename]]] [/ f] [/ v] [/ r] [/ x] [/ I] [/ c] [/ l [: size]] [/ b]

  volume Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon),
  mount point or volume name.
  filename FAT/FAT32 only: Specifies the files to check for fragmentation.
  /F fixes errors on the disk.
  /V FAT/FAT32: displays the full path and the name of each file
  on the disk.
  On NTFS: Displays the eventual cleanup messages.
  /R Locates bad sectors and recovers readable information
  (implies / f).
  L:size NTFS only: changes the size of the logfile to the specified number
  of kilobytes.  If the size is not specified, displays currently
  size.
  /X force the volume to unmount it first if necessary.
  All open handles to the volume would then be invalid
  (implies / f).
  /I NTFS only: performs a less vigorous check of index entries.
  /C NTFS only: skips, checking of cycles within the folder
  structure.
  /B NTFS only: Re-evaluates bad clusters on the volume
  (implies / r)

  The /I or /C switch reduces the amount of time required to run Chkdsk by
  skip certain checks of the volume.

  Any routine review and car repair will take time. CHKDSK is no exception.

  Can Hello: Anyone help me with a beginner?

  I have a 3 to external hard drive that I want to score in three volumes of 1 TB. But every time I try to use DiskPart it divides the first partition in a 2 TB and from there I can not extend it. When I cut it up to 1 TB it gives me two volumes, K and L, but then I can't expand the volume of L. It's all leaving me with 746 GB unallocated I can't use.  Is in anyway possible of this Dove upward from the way I want?

• question about a new external hard drive partitioning

  I just bought a TB G-Technology G 4 USB 3.0 drive to replace my old Lacie which is way to small.  It has served me well.

  I Google search on the net and research here in the discussions, I should create partitions, and if so, how, a few observations are in each article thread or by email.  A reason to partition (actually more than one partition) is so we can have a section for our time Machine backups, and for a section where we want to save our data backup and one for our user data?  I have not seen a clear statement on what might be the 'data', or what might be the 'user data '.  And if the time machine is backed up, is it NOT back up my data files?

  In order to unravel how the partitions I should create in my 4 TB Ex HD, can someone help me better understand what I should and should not save in time machine?  And if I choose to NOT include it in my Time Machine backup, why would I use a partition do it to, in order to save manually?  I do not pretend that it sounds stupid, I'm not clear on what 'it' is and what info I use to make the best decision for my use.

  Thanks a lot for any wisdom you could share with me.

  Have a Time Machine backup partition on the same drive as your data is a stupid backup plan. Since the main cause of data loss is disk failure to have the backup on the same disk as the means of data when the wrong road, you lose everything.

  At Time Machine backup. You never know what data you will lose.

  I suggest that you give up your plan to make the Time Machine backups on the same drive as the data. You need another player for that.

• Why my external hard drive cannot be mounted or viewd by a Macbook

  Hello

  I can't see my HD exertenal from the finder.

  I do not have G-Tech HD and I use with TimeMachine. This HD has two partitions.

  The first is used for the backup with Time Machine, a macbook air, and the second partition is used to back up a macbook pro with Time Machine.

  It worked fine until I look in the external hard drive (partition macbook). Now, it is not possible to mount the external hard drive. From the Finder, I see no partition eighter the first or the second.

  I plugged it in an another mAcbook air and no way to see inside the external hard drive.

  Howerver, I pluggged in a 14.04 ubuntu and I was able to navigate through the external hard drive

  Why can I see the contents of the external HD with a ubuntu n not with a Macbook?

  And how can I solve this problem?

  See you soon

  El Capitan has permissions configuration much tighter than earlier versions of Mac OS X and it can become a problem to open files from a different computer. You need to tell us what OS you are running on all computers.

  I suspect that Ubuntu is having no problem because it does not under the same restraint of permissions.

  It worked fine until I look in the external hard drive (partition macbook).

  What you have done here, caused the change of permissions.

  Don't forget that connect a player directly on a computer and use it plugged into an airport will have different permissions issues.

  I don't have much in the way of a solution. Apple has changed repair them permissions on El Capitan.

  You have a Mac running an earlier version of Mac OS X?

  If your two partitions are used just to make the Time Machine backups...

• Is it possible to extract personal folders from my hard drive and transfer to an external hard drive if Windows does not start?

  Hello, I recently started my Windows XP Dell computer and it should start up normally unless it would run the ChkDsk utility. It would freeze then 68% on stage 1 and goes no further. I called the people of Dell and after trying so many solutions, including safe mode, safe mode with network and CommandPrompt, we ran the diagnosis. The hard drive and memory are fine, no errors. He concluded that it was the operating system and must be restored. However, I have important files, I need to extract from my hard drive and he recommended me an external hard drive. I bought it, but now I'm not sure how to extract my files from my drive hard if Windows can not even boot the desktop computer. Is it possible to extract these files without the use of the desktop computer?

  And you've burned the .iso image, and not as data? If Yes, then you have created a bootable CD. Put it in your optical drive and restart the computer. You may need to change the boot order in your BIOS. With some machines, you can get a temporary startup command menu by pressing a function such as F12 at startup. Other computers require that you enter setup and change the boot order in the optical drive first of all from there. When you start your computer it will be information about which key press to enter the BIOS (Setup) or give you the temporary boot order.

  After you changed the boot order to boot first from the CD and rebooted the computer, Knoppix will boot. Have your external hard drive connected to the computer before you start doing this. After Knoppix is finished booting, you will be in his office. It will be very similar to Windows. There are icons on the desktop for your internal hard drive and the external hard drive. Copy files from the internal to the external drive as you want. Review what I wrote about the use of Knoppix in my previous answer. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• CC running on an external hard drive

  My Mac is struggling to run CC, as it has 8 GB of RAM and can not be upgraded - it's an iMac (retina 4 K, 21.5 inches, end of 2015), 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3. I heard that it is possible to install and run Adobe CC to an external hard drive partitioned, in order to release the pressure on the HDD internal. Is this possible, and, if so, how can I go about it? Preferable the profane responses because I'm not that irritable - as it is proof of the fact I didn't you could not increase the RAM in new iMacs after purchase! Any help greatly appreciated, thank you.

  The core of the CC, the office application must be installed on the main drive of the machine.  In addition, you can specify an alternative location for the applications to install.

  To change the installation for Applications location

  With the application of CC open, select the gear icon in the upper right, and then choose Preferences.  In the preferences of the screen select creative cloud and then look for the drop-down list installation location
