• How to partition an external hard drive Seagate

  My old external HD Time Machine does not so I bought a 2 TB Seagate Backup more Portable Drive to replace it. It has been formatted for Windows but provided a configuration "NTFS_ Mac download for_ I ran. I'd like to partition the drive & use 1 TB for Time Machine.

  When I go into disk utility, I cannot and select the Seagate HD, the choice of the Partition is grey and not selectable.

  Any suggestion how to get this HD formatted correctly so that it is recognized in disk utility?

  I guess that the external hard drive is formatted NTFS, so disk utility does not have to perform all the tasks in this topic. It you can't format it on some Windows system with the FAT file system? Once the FAT is made, the Mac of THE it reformats with HFS. However if you want to do with the above partition size (1 TB HFS and 1 TB NTFS or FAT) then can try you with a disk management utility.

• What is an I / Q error? This occurs with the backups using external hard drive SeaGate

  We have two external hard drives; a 3Terabyte (don't know how it) Seagate and another whose name escapes me. On the Seagate, I get the message: backup did not complete due to I / Q error. What is I / Q error and how to fix this? If all goes well, not a complicated process.

  Thanks for any help. Hope I selected the areas to fix this, below.

  Hello

  I assumed that by I / Q error you mean error e/s? Run chkdsk on the drive Seagate:

  Start > Search bar > type cmd right click and select run as administrator

  High CMD should now be open, type the following:

  CHKDSK x: /r

  x involves the reader of your letter, so if your hard drive in question is the letter c, it would be:

  CHKDSK c: /r

  Restart the system and allow to run chkdsk.

• Lightroom CC backup on external hard drive Seagate

  My Seagate hard drive is perfectly functional, make backups of several programs, including CClone, Joelle, and Time Machine.

  Yet when I recently tried to backup a catalog from Lightroom CC, I get the following error message.

  
  

  "Lightroom is unable to create a folder for your exports in the location you have chosen. Please select a different location. »

  
  

  Lightroom has no problem backup up to my 2 TB Lacie external hard drives.

  
  

  I use a Mac Pro with the latest version of the OS

  
  

  Can you guide me through this?

  This is the location you have chosen, IE the folder on the drive. Create a new folder on this drive called Lightroom backups and LR point in this folder to make its backups to. In Finder Right click on the new folder that you created and make sure that your username has both read + write permission.

  Also, it's a bad idea to have a single drive for Time Machine and store other files on this disc. Time Machine should have it own dedicated player to do back ups for that is not used for anything else.

• External hard drive (Seagate) not readable after the ejection using Thunderbolt cable

  Not sure where this question fits as this seems to be a Thunderbolt cable problem but here goes...

  I have 4 TB Seagate Backup Plus external drives for archiving with two drives - backup A and B backup - and two interfaces, a basis of love at first sight and a standard basis of USB3.

  Using the basis of love at first sight that I backed up to 1.5 TB of data on a Mac logged to A disk and ejected from backup format. When I reassembled A backup to verify the data Finder says the drive is not a recognizable car and I had to reformat. I thought that I must have crashed head or something like the disc was still running when I pulled it off the base of love at first sight. When I got tired to reformat the drive in disk utility only 500 GB of the 4TB were available for formatting, so I thought that I've certainly got to have damaged it.

  Then I saved my 1.5 TB of data to a second drive Seagate Backup Plus (backup B) but when I eject this drive (this time I waited to stop and pulled the power over the base before you remove the disk) and then lift the drive that the same error came in the Finder. Suspecting it was the Thunderbolt interface I swapped backup to the base of the USB3 B and all the data is there! I checked A backup and even if she had to be reformatted this time all the 4 TB of capacity was available.

  I also have a Rugged Lacie 2 TB drive with a Firewire interface and it seems to work just fine so maybe the Thunderbolt Apple cable or Seagate sight base. I don't have a second Thunderbolt cable to test with at the moment.

  As a secondary issue readers are not run down after eject either. The heads are parked, but readers continue so I have to pull the power and wait that it happen down before I can remove basic USB3 disks or love at first sight. This problem, even if it's embarrassing, I can live with. In the foreseeable future I'll use the basis of the USB3.

  Everyone knows about this problem before? It sounds really weird.

  I can only give you my opinion of WD boxes and I'm afraid that's not good. My experience with WD boxes have always been bad. My suggestion is to try another TB cable and see if that's it, if not then try to connect another device to your iMac Thunderbolt and test to see if it is the iMac, which I doubt it is. If this isn't the cable or the iMac, then you know that it's the condom. If the disks are recoverable from the speaker, remove them and get a TB of high-quality speaker. My vote goes to OWC (www.macworld.com) pregnant Thunderbolt.

• My imac (El Capitan 10.11.6 - 2 Terabyts) complete and FCPX disk will not work. I moved a few fcpxbundles library to an external hard drive (seagate 2 trabyte) and erased from the iMac. NowFCPX said that missing data as effects therefore can not shar

  Help!  My FCPX (v - 10.2.3) does not work because my iMac drive is full (iMac 21.5 inch has 2 terabyte w / v OS El Capitan 10.11.6) I had tried to free up space by moving tons of files on a usb disk Seagate (2 terabyte) speedboat that barely made a dent. then on the advice of a friend I found (in movies) a file called Final Cut backups. There were 4 files with extension, ".fcpbundle" I have three of them moved to another drive to Seagate usb - they had 2.82 GB, 21.6 GB and GB 68,21 that I thought should be enough and them removed from my iMac drive - bad! It says I have only 13.46 GB free on my 2 terabyte iMac total!

  The fourth fcpbundle it's TB 1.72! But before leaving that I returned and opened FCPX and found the warning triangle around my library... While my last project looked OK I couldn't / the share of exports because the pop-up says FCPX has no data for efx etc (the media looked at and display fine) and cannot be taken out.

  FCPX can work with the "beams" moved to another drive? How the detectable in a new place? Or how to put them back?
  How can I make sure that future packages clutter my iMac again?

  Do I need a RAID disks? If yes which?

  I found other folders in folders 'Make files' and records backup for projects with the .fcpbundle inside files

  How can I get this sucker working again?... and what should I do to keep him from doing the same thing in the future?

  Thank you

  :.. then on the advice of a friend I found a file called Final Cut backups (in movies). There were 4 files with extension, ".fcpbundle" I have three of them moved to another drive to Seagate usb - they had 2.82 GB, 21.6 GB and GB 68,21:

  The backup files are only the database files (no media) and must be low, not gigabytes, do not know what is happening there.

  Media libraries stored in the bundle of FCP X library or stored outside?

  If stored at the breast, called managed media, simply copy and paste the library to a different location.

  Make sure that library books newly located correctly before you remove what either.

  Perhaps check your settings of the library.

  Click the library icon in the browser and it appears in the Inspector:

  

  By clicking on change settings shows this:

  

  Move the mouse over the media and it will reveal the path where things are sent.

  Then you might be able to track down what goes where.

  From you description, it seems that most of the media files and rendered is not be moved successfully.

  Some screenshots would be useful if you can't find where stuff is.

• Seagate 2 TB external hard drive does not register

  I almost always took care to disconnect the drive safely, and continued to work well when he is accidentally unplugged (only happened 3 - 4 times). Today he did not appear in the office or in the finder, the responses in this thread, external HARD drive Seagate will appear not in place were a little helpful but did not fix my problem. Here are some of the facts of the case, somehow:

  • I use a 2012 MacBook Pro running El Capitan with a 1 TB hard drive (this was added later when the original drive has failed)
  • External hard disk was used to transfer large files a bit to a laptop running Windows 8 and was not ejected safely from this computer
  • The reader is displayed correctly on other MacBooks (tested today) and all files are in order.
  • The drive appears in the report of the system but does not appear in the disk utility.
  • The drive does not appear in the Seagate dashboard that was installed when the car was purchased.
  • The drive has two partitions: one for Time Machine and the other to the format to work on Mac and Windows to store normal files.
  • My MacBook has been impossible to open a .dmg file today, unconnected with. I do not have this issue.

  I'd appreciate any help you can give. Thank you!

  Hi Philippe,.

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community and thank you for the post about it

  It seems that when you connect an external hard drive Seagate USB to your computer, there is no indication in the drive. I appreciate the action that you tried to solve the problem.

  I would like to know the following information.

  (1) what version of Windows is currently installed on your computer?
  (2) have you tried to connect the hard drive to other USB ports?
  (3) you are able to use other USB devices?

  I suggest you to connect the hard drive to another computer and check.

  Your answers are important to us, please write to us with the requested information so that we can help more.

• MacBook Pro not mounting external hard drive

  My Macbook Pro (early 2015, running Mac OS Sierra) is not able to mount my [new] external hard drive (Seagate Backup Slim). It shows up in disk utility, but the volume seems shady. Nothing happens by pressing the command mount or performing first aid. Kindly help me out here.

  Hi vishesh97,

  Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!

  We understand your question that you have a new external hard drive, a backup Slim Seagate, which does not appear when you connect to your MacBook Pro.

  Allows because it is a new hard drive, try to clear the disc first and formatting for Mac OS extended (journaled). The instructions for this process are found in the article below:

  For Mac disk utility: delete a volume using disk utility

• Problem of macOS / external hard drive

  My external hard drive (Seagate Portable) went wonky after update of my MacBook Pro for macOS Sierra.

  I did some research and I've followed all the advice - nothing helped.

  ・It is not in the Finder.

  ・It is listed in "Disk utility", but I can't do anything with him - like mounting the drive.

  ・ "Disk utility", says that the Seagate drive is completely full - but I know for sure that's not true - it was about a quarter full and has only a few months.

  ・i reset the PRAM & SMC on Mac

  Try to update the Paragon NTFS driver. You can find the updated version on the Seagate support site at:

• Force erase/Format an external hard drive

  I spent $ 140 on an external hard drive Seagate Backup Plus. As you can imagine, the instructions are crap. None of the software that are supposed to be installed on my external hard drive is there, and I am not given the choice of formatting a Mac.

  So I thought I could just open disk utility, erase the hard drive, then format for Mac.

  But when I click on the delete button, I get the message "failed the erase process.

  Is there a way I can replace the error messages and force to erase an external hard drive?

  Thank you.

  Have you tried the tab partition in disk utility? This will erase the disc and give you the ability to format in Mac OS extended (journaled).
