  I moved my iPhoto on an external hard drive.

  Did you move the iPhoto library for the external hard drive or the iPhoto application, or both?

  How is formatted the external hard drive? Is the file system on the drive Mac OS extended (journaled) or other system files?  Is the drive directly connected by USB or similar, or is it a SIN?

  IPhoto on the external hard drive will not launch despite the force quit and relaunch several times.

  I don't understand - if you force quit smoking, launches the application, or you can not force it quit?

  IPhoto is suspended without doing anything, when you launch?

  What version of iPhoto does? And what version of Mac OS X?

• Windows 8 cannot connect to the external hard drive after you have added the drive case.

  Original title: I have my hard drive from my previous PC attached to my new PC with windows 8. My old PC had XP. How to access the external hard drive?

  I had problems with my XP operating system and could not transfer all the files to my new PC. I spoke with Dell who I believe created the problem with software support. I was told to get out the hard drive, buy a hard drive enclosure and get my files from there. I can't find the hard drive.

  Hello

  Thank you for the update.

  Given that the problem occurs when the hard drive is connected to a different USB port or another computer, it is probably related to the connection of the hard disk.

  Method 1: check if the problem occurs in another computer after removing the hard disk enclosure.

  Method 2:

   

  Step 1: Check if the hard drive is detected in Windows Explorer.

  To do this, follow these steps:

  a. connect the hard disk of the computer.

  b. press the Windows key + E to open Windows Explorer.

  c. check if the hard drive is present here.

  Step 2: Check if the hard drive is detected in disk management.

  To do this, follow these steps:

  a. on the desktop, press the Windows key + X , and then select disk management.

  b. check if the hard drive is listed there.

  Contact the manufacturer of the hard drive and hard drive enclosure for assistance.

• Can I use time capsule from Apple and an external hard drive that is connected to my Mac at the same time to save?

  I have an external hard drive (1 TB ADATA HV620) and a time capsule of Apple 2009. So far I have used the external drive-DATA to back up regularly on my Mac, but it uses one of my USB slots. I would like to start using the time capsule from Apple to everything back up, as it does so wireless, but I still want to be able to back up by using the ADATA hard drive occasionally. Is it possible to use two devices to back up or can I use only one device? Thank you.

  You can use the two devices, but Time Machine... If that's what you use to back up... can back up only to a disc at a time. So if you set up Time Machine to back up on both discs, it will support drive until one first, then the other after the first drive of the backup is complete.

• External hard drive will not mount after the update of the Sierra

  Hi, I have an a Segate 1 TB external hard drive that I have with my MacBook Air. After upgrading to Mac OS Sierra, he refused to climb and is therefore invisible in the Finder. Disk utility detects the drive in NTFS initialized and said that all the space has been used. I tried to mount it first through disk utility, but it did nothing. Then I tried via terminal, but he returns "failed to mount. It worked fine before and also works very well on a MacBook Pro running Yosemite. It may be nothing to do with the player, as all files are intact when it is connected to the other Mac. Also, I restarted in Mac utilities and run from there disk utility, and it detected the drive, mounted and fully initialized, with the right amount of space being exhausted.

  I am looking for a solution that does not copy the files off and reformatting if possible, but I'll give it a go, if it comes to that. Thank you very much.

  Most likely your Seagate drivers are not updated.

  NTFS is most likely the culprit here.

  Go to the Seagate site and download and install the latest drivers for your drive and NTFS.

  Hi Peter,

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

  From your problem description, I understand that you are unable to transfer files from an external drive on another drive. Please let me know if this isn't the problem that you are experiencing.

  Before troubleshooting, I have little information on the issue.

  1. Do you receive any error or display message?
  2. Did you recent hardware or modifications to the software on the computer before this problem?

  Try the methods and then check after each method:

  Method 1: Transfer files from a drive to the location on the desktop or a temporary folder and then try to transfer them to the destination disk.

  Note: make sure the free space on the disk in the destination drive.

  Method 2: Run the Fixit:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_file_and_folder_diag/

  Method 3: Disconnect your player safely, and restart the computer. And then try to transfer the files.

  If the problem persists, post your reply with results and questions above. We are happy to help you further in the advanced troubleshooting steps!

  System Restore: frequently asked questions

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

  Important: Restore the system affect the system files of Windows, programs and settings of register that have been changed recently. It can also make changes to scripts, files, batch and other types of executable files on your computer. System Restore does not affect personal files, such as e-mail, documents, or photos, so it cannot help you restore a deleted file.

  I suggest you visit the manufacturer's Web site and download and install the latest wireless drivers or if you use the link give and check if it helps.

• HP Pavilion ho23-056 23, touch: copy full hard on an external hard drive as a return to the top

  I am currently running windows 8.1 x 64 bit, and I think the copy of my entire hard drive (consisting of readers of C & D using a total of 929.2 GB of space.  And wanting to get an external Western Digital hard drive with 1.5 TB of space.  I was led to believe that windows 8.1 has a utility called Image Back Up utility (located in the control panel).  I have also led to believe that this can be done completely by using a little bit of whole hard disk copy (programs, files, drivers, applications, utilities, etc.), but I can't well enough information on this operation. And there are still questions, like how can you transfer a copy to an external hard drive on the PC if it should crash completely? (I do have a set of five drive recovery that I did when I bought my PC, but still want an additional source of a backup system.)  I can not find the procedures for copying the copy from the disk external hard on the PC crashed and are best and safest ther programs out there to use instead of windows system Image backup utility?  I would like to add that I am a bit of an intermediate user, using a PC since windows 95. but there are obviously issues that I need to research before trying something that complicated and advanced.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

  A description of the System Image backup can be found here.  If you want to C and D, I suggest a clone program. Seagate and WD have a wizard disk free program. With the cloning process, you use an external enclosure to the clone.  When disaster strikes, swap you the drives and continue. Personally, I make clones of my primary office every 30 to 45 days.
