• Windows Explorer: Impossible to copy an external 6 GB ISO on hard drive file - file too big error

  My problem is exactly similar to this thread: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7files/thread/a6c41ba8-1496-4993-9304-59476e797581

  I am trying to copy a 6 GB ISO on my external hard drive file, but I get the error "the file is too large for the destination file system . My external hard drive is a FAT32 file system.

  Is there one solution other than the formatting of my external to NTFS? And if not, what are the dangers of do?

  Thank you.

  Michael Murphy is correct to identify the problem, but I do not share his solution (more specifically requested an alternative formatting).

  There is another solution it's your external drive to NTFS format - convert to NTFS (which means that you will not lose your data, programs and settings just as you would if you formatted).  It is the best way to convert a drive to NTFS and is specifically designed for this purpose - I wouldn't format the drive unless I had no other choice (and you can) - it is not the process of corroct for this task (but to be honest it will work, but again it will be wpe the external drive clean information in the process when this is not necessary).

  Here are the steps to perform the conversion.  It is very easy.  http://techblissonline.com/fat32-to-ntfs-conversion-in-windows-xp-or-vista/.

• Adobe will never address the problem of work on a fragmented hard drive?

  I spend a lot of time to defragment my hard drive (450 GB with 150 GB) free in order to ensure that the pre works without errors.

  I do not tend to make fairly long high-definition videos (two hours).  However, it seems that this problem could be addressed and the fixed Adobe would send some effort his way.

  Am I wrong?

  It's a question of operating system. Not a problem program. Mac, for example, do not have this problem.

  With any intensive program - especially when working with large files - you need huge blocks of contiguous disk space. Fragmentation that hinders.

  In the meantime, the simplest solution is to keep your publishing projects and media on a second hard drive. It's your drive C that gets defragmented everything, after all. A second disc media and projects (that most publishers recommend in any case) develops very little fragmentation of files and, especially if it's a large, takes very little maintenance.

• Mini Mac server - attachment of external hard drives file transfer speed

  Hi guys!

  I wanted to increase the speed and storage capacity to transfer to my Mac mini file, so I bought a box of external hard drives. The one I bought is: http://www.icydock.com/goods.php?id=219

  Built-in the Mac mini hard drives transfer the file to 60 MB/s (writing and reading) and I wanted to get better speed of file transfer, so I bought an SSD that is going to be inside with an another HARD drive of 3 TB for archiving my files. The housing is connected by USB3.0 (5 Gb/s) for the Mac mini.

  [SSD-> files I opened every day] - speed around 550 MB/s write and 500 MB/sec in reading

  [HDD-> Archives, files that I have does not open very often] - speed around 150 MB/s write and 150 MB/sec in reading

  So I did some benchmarks on my new Setup, and the speed is not really what I expected. Transfer of file max speed I have achieved is about 100 MB/sec in writing on the external SSD plugged into the mac mini. This transfer has been filed since an iMac 21 "2011 with an SSD (with almost the same speed read/write than the box) so it's quite disappointing.

  It is possible that the Mac has a 'file transfer speed limit' is somewhere? Or whatever else that could affect that?

  More information on my setup:

  Mac Mini server 2012 - 2 TB RAID 1 - Mac OSX 10.9.5

  iMac 21 "2011 - Crucial SSD 275 Gb - Mac OSX 10.9.4

  IcyDock external enclosure - 4 bays, USB3 5 Gb/s

  -Red WD HDD 3To

  -Crucial SSD 1 TB

  I'm really skeptical if you can launch the second partition Toshiba ghost image files without using the Symantec Norton Ghost software.

  I created a ghost of the C partition image and placed on the D partition.
  Recover the C partition to start the utility of Ghost and having to use the file D partition .gho image

• How can I move music and photos from my MacBook on an external hard drive, files without deleting the existing NTFS files stored on it?

  Hello.

  I am aware that this issue (or different versions of it) will be requested a thousand times before, but after searching on the internet for a solution, I have been unable to find all the information that brings a simple clear answer that is specific to my problem and so thought I would ask the question myself.

  I recently bought a Toshiba 1 TB external hard drive to transfer music, photo files and internal document in front of the memory of my old PC running Windows, as well as files, music and photos from my existing MacBook Pro, so I can "release" the memory on the latter.

  Transfer files from the old PC proved to be easy; success achieved by simple drag / drop the files to the appropriate location on the external HD icon of Toshiba which appears once I connected to a USB port. It is perhaps worth mentioning that the area of States hard drive has been formatted NTFS for Windows, and so I guess that I would not have expected any problems when transferred to a PC.

  Move the files from my MacBook has however proved anything but simple and trying to drag the respective music and photo files and drop them on the HD Toshiba icon (which appears on my desktop once it is plugged), I seem to be affected by the same issues as so much seems to have it before me, in that "forbidden access" / error symbol appears with the cursor , and bounce the files to their original location whenever I try to place them on the Toshiba HD.

  I understand that this is due to the HD is formatted in NTFS, and that I would need to reformat the hard drive to move files from my MacBook, which brings me to my questions:-

  (a) how do I do this, and

  (b) can I do this without losing, damage or remove the NTFS files from my old PC, which are already stored on the external hard drive.

  If one is able to offer any assistance, in the most simple, easy to follow the description, I would be really grateful!

  Never been so thanks in advance!

  1 install software such as Paragon NTFS on the Mac and let the reader in its current form or from the Finder, choose utilities go to menu, open disk utility and reformat.

  2. that by putting a copy on another drive. You should do this anyway, in case of failure of this drive.

• External hard drives - file transfer

  I have two external hard drives and I want to move the files from one to the other.   I want to create a new folder on the drive more so I can copy the files in this folder.  I have to be able to create this folder...  How to do this, then once done, how to copy files...

  -What is the format of the disks? PC players are usually formatted with NTFS that a Mac CAN read natively, but CAN NOT write to. Thus, yu cannot copy any files or folder natively on disks formatted in NTFS.

  -You can write to disk formatted in NTFS with an application like:

  Tuxera NTFS for Mac

  Paragon NTFS for Mac® 14

  -If you can write on a disc yo can just go to the Finder and select the drive and right click and select new folder. You can select the files to copy to copy and then right-click and select copy, then go to where you want and right click and select Paste.

  You can also select the and drag them to the desired location.

• How to convert wma to mp3 on external hard drive file

  I have a new version of osxe1 mac 10.11.2 capitan how to convert wma files into mp3 files that are on my external hard drive so my mac can copy on my iTunes

  http://www.mediahuman.com/audio-converter/ - free.  Says it does WMA. I have not used it so try at your own risk...

  Switch (free basic version) - http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html - I don't know if this will make WMA

  All2Mp3 - http://download.cnet.com/All2MP3/3000-2140_4-190407.html - limited success with WMA

  Flip4mac - need version payware intermediary that allows you to convert.  Use with Quicktime player.  Flip4Mac - http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.asp?prodid=flip4mac wmv - the free version will allow QuickTime play, but not to convert Windows Media files.

  After installation, a new component of Flip4Mac will appear in system preferences.  Make sure that you set the boxes to make sure that it will play WMV files in Quicktime format.

  VLC - not really a converter but will do a bit on the menu export.  Can be slow to be converted and there will be a learning curve.

  Explore online converters when you download a file in a format and download in another.

  I do not know if your computer can run Audion 3 I think I used to use it to convert WMA.

• Why has it antivirus analyze more data on hard drive files?

  I have always noticed that when I run a full scan of my system, the antivirus scans files that sum up to more than the data in my hard drive.
  Like when I run a full scan of my antivirus shows (7.0 free Avast) it has scanned 59 GB while the total used space in my hard disk is about 53 GB.

  It could be analyzed another partition in addition to your C: drive. Most computers have some recovery partitions, so even if not create you another partition, the recovery partition could be what he adds to the analysis.

  I hope this helps.  Good luck.

• Crashed hard drive file recovery

  Hello

  I am pulling data from a hard drive crash (Windows XP works badly to the point that MS support could not fix).  I had a pretty basic install, Office, iTunes, some other applications.

  Other than Outlook PST files, are there other data file important figure in areas not in My Documents?  I found the music and documents, but am concerned about other programs that store data in the areas of Documents.  Is Outlook the only program that does this?

  Also, is there a way to recover the Favorites of IE7?

  Thank you

• Old hard drive files to the new laptop, problem of promise.

  How to move files from my old hard drive to my new computer?

  My old HP laptop dv1010 (Windows XP) has stopped working. The reason why it has stopped working is likely a defective power supply.

  I remove the hard drive from the dv1010 and linked to my new HP laptop dv7 - 6143cl with a Unitek Y-1031 USB2.0 to IDE.

  I have no problem, see the file with Windows 7 using the 'computer' link in the start menu. But I can't open one because of the permissions windows opens.

  My old laptop HP dv1010 had a connection with a password when I start it.

  Yet once how can I move files from my old hard drive to my new computer?

  Hello

  It is a utility that will add "Take Ownership" to the contextual right click menu.  The download is on the following link.

  Appropriating

  It is a zipped file.  If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip , which can be used to open it so that you can run the Setup program.  Then just right click the folder zipped, select 7 - Zip and extract the files.  When you're done, open the newly extracted folder and you can find the utility to add "Take Ownership" to the right click menu.  Double-click it to install it and then close the window.  You should now be able to right click on the files you need to access and select Take Ownership.
