• best way to clone my boot drive?

  just survived a crash of my Mac Pro desktop computer.  Waiting for a GeForce GTX 680 replacement graphics card.  I need to create a sustainable clone, course of my boot drive. I'd rather NOT have to duplicate everything, just apps, library, system, music, and photos.  Time Machine seems unable to separate parts of the startup disk.

  Thank you

  Carbon Copy Cloner has a very nice interface for the selection of the trees of subdirectory to copy.  Of course if you do not include the operating system, it will not be a bootable clone.

  CCC has a fully active 1 month demo mode.  The saved data is good forever after the demo expires.

  Personally, I just do a full 100% clone and then choose what to restore later.  For this

• My boot drive is full

  I get a notice that my boot drive is full. What exactly is my boot drive? And how is it different from space on my hard drive? Is there something specific that takes up space? My computer is not so old (2015 MacBook Pro).

  The startup disk is just another name for your hard drive. So if you are out of space on this subject, you can't can are either not now or is on the point.

  You have a backup?

  If you do not one as soon as POSSIBLE. Use an external drive for this.

• Should project files I absolutely to be stored on the boot drive by FCP 6

  Hello. I always understood that the FCP 6 project files must be stored on your boot drive and would like to know if it is still the recommended location (and why in this case) or I can store them on a 2nd internal drive or an external drive without any degradation of performance. My boot drive is a SSD drive and I would like to write him as little as possible. Thanks for any input from anyone.

  You ask on the FCP project file or media files for your project?

• Save no internal boot drive in a Mac Pro 2009

  I have a Mac Pro 2009 with 4 internal drives.  I keep my photo files on one of the disks not bootable and I would like to make automatic backups of him to another internal drive.  I can do this in a Terminal using rsync, but I wonder if there is an incremental backup program to achieve this.  What I read in the Apple Support, Time Machine backs up only the boot drive.

  Time Machine backs up everything being told, in order to use it. It meets your requirements.

• Bootcamp partition is not as boot drive, after running bootcamp to install Windows 10 on MacbookPro 15 "El Capitan running

  Hello

  I'm trying to install 10 Windows on my Macbook Pro. I followed this guide, but I am stuck between steps 3 and 4. In disk utility, I see that the bootcamp partition is created, but it does not appear as boot drive. I also tried to start my mac while pressing the option key, but still it will not show.

  See below for a screenshot that shows the current state of my machine.

  

  

  

  How can I continue to install 10 Windows on my Mac?

  Your BOOTCAMP partition internal not yet have Windows installed on it.  If you're between steps 3 and 4 (the installation procedure standard), your, assistant Boot Camp should automatically rebooting your computer after partitioning, from the installation media (Windows 10 CD), you must have created.  I assume that you already have a Windows 10 installation disk.  Make sure that the disc is inserted when you first enter assistant Boot Camp and you let the computer restart on its own.

  Apple instructions are a bit vague (somehow I'm not surprised).

  Watch (time code 04:26 - 09:15) in next video for instructions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SxA_OsPEgk).

  Good luck.

• HP EliteBook 8730w: replacement of SSD for the boot drive not recognized

  I'm trying to install a Samsung SSD 840 EVO 500 GB instead of the original 500 GB HDD in my Elitebook 8730w (product no. VF889PA #ABG). The 8730w has the latest BIOS (F.20) installed and that is running Windows 7 Professional 32-bit (fully patched).

  When it is connected to the laptop through a USB adapter, to clone the HARD disk image. the SSDS works correctly. Cloning through data Migration Samsung is reported as a success, and the image of the C:\ drive occupies approximately 153 GB. The image of the disc does not include the partition of 1 GB dedicated to HP_TOOLS, due to a known limit of the Samsung software supplied.

  When it is installed in the HARD drive Bay. the SSD is not recognized as a drive and does not appear in the list of startup options. The available boot options only shown are the DVD or a network boot.

  would be very grateful for any advice on the steps required to successfully install the Samsung SSD as boot drive.

  Hmmm.
  Honestly no, I'm not happy with this one. If it was my machine, I'd be a little concerned about whats the corner of the street. In view of the age, is not surprising really, things wear out over time, the mere fact of electronics.
  
  Search through everything you have posted, all photos, pdf, all the text double checking. I am absolutely puzzled as to what happened. If you 100% does not reinstall the hard disk between the posts above where no HARD drive is detected in the menu boot options for the post below that where the HARD drive is detected in the same menu. I would say that you have a problem with either, the ssd, the computer motherboard laptop or the small connector on the sata port, I think on these is integrated on the motherboard, so it seems that your advice is doubtful.
  If his works now, great... but be aware that your machine can fail at some point in the near future. And it looks like a defect of the motherboard, other things are probably waiting to fail.
  
  There is no reason whatsoever your laptop must not have seen this ssd at first startup. A HARD drive is a HARD disk, if its compatible sata, then it will work, no doubt. When he is not on an older machine, its probably a sign of a faulty component.
  
  Looking through your bios options, I recommend the following.
  
  On startup options, get rid of internal nic pxe boot, that will only slow your machine at startup as it will seek for a network bootable device. This is the message that you get at startup saying Media Test Failure, this page is preventable with this option disabled.
  Less built lan/wlan switching on enabled in the options of the terminal, also change. This means that if you use wifi at home for example and you decide to plug in a cable network directly to the router to speed up the connection, it will not pass if it is not defined, you will have to do it manually. I work in a large company and the number of people who have this option is unreal. They all assume when they are docked they will on the wired connection.
  
  Because we are here too, if you ever have problems with a flickering screen, first thing to try, is disable the ambient light sensor which is just below this option of switching. Its fine on normally, but its quite common on 8560p for this causes a flickering screen.
  
  Hope that helped. Good luck in what you decide to do with the machine

• Accidentally partitioned my boot drive.

  Thinking I was partition an external drive, I partitioned my boot drive of 1 gig in 3 equal partitions. Things seem to be good, but is it possible to easily disable partition or do I have to reformat the hard disk and reinstall from my backup time machine?

  Thank you

  Andy

  Open disk utility, select the disk, delete the second and third partitions and resize the first to the capacity of the drive.

• Is it safe to remove files from my macbook air now that I have set up my time capsule and backed up with time machine? My boot drive is full. How can I access files of my time capsule once they are deleted from my computer?

  Is it safe to remove files from my macbook air now that I have set up my time capsule and backed up with time machine? My boot drive is full. How can I access files of my time capsule once they are deleted from my computer?

  1 n ° put them on a regular external drive and the value of Time Machine to back up as well; the files you want to keep should be at least two disks in case one of them goes down.

  2. they will not be usable until the restoration.

• SSD upgrade failed - not found boot drive

  I need your help guys... I've been everywhere on the net, try different methods to clone my Windows 7 for SSD and failed repeatedly.

  Here is my setup, I have a HP Envy 14 with a 500 GB HARD drive. I bought an SSD to speed things up.  I have 2 OS (dual boot),

  Win7 and win 8, on which Win8 is the default operating system (according to the news of easyBCD).   I just want to clone the Win7 OS part.

  (Win7 - C drive), (Win8 - F drive) and recovery on the D drive.

  I tried these t hings upafter the defragmentation and backup)

  1. While on Win7, I created a copy of the image, but strangely, thought, once the process is complete the copy of the image is Win8

  I've used EaseUs to do backup and clone Drive C

  Swapped with the SSD HARD drive and got a message could not find a boot disk

  2. because I failed on the first try, I formatted the SSD and opt instead for a new installation.

  -J' I downloaded the ISO of Win7, swapped the (empty) SSD newly formatted

  -Started on the Win7 Installer, and have the operating system installed on the SSD.

  -J' thought that I was until I noticed assigned HP keys do not work, the USB drivers do not work, I could not turn on/off wifi. The reason may be the missing drivers (bloatware since the HP recovery disk - given that I didn't copy that one)

  3. after the attempts, I formatted the SSD drive. I read somewhere to use the HP recovery instead.

  -J' cloned the disc to my HDD to the SSD HP recovery

  -Swapped with the SSD HARD drive

  -Started my laptop and not found boot drive... (even after pressing F11)

  can you tell me a better way to do it?   Or if someone could point out what I did wrong, or perhaps missed?  Really appreaciate... This was bugs me for the last days...

• Long boot time and the gel boot drive selection window

  Hello. I have a problem with my MacBook Pro 13 retina "(2015 at the beginning).

  My mac is about 4 minutes of cranking up about a quarter of the time and it is not related to the problem of the "boot disk select parameters. The computer just hangs before it's anything related to the start-up procedure. It's just a black screen with no interaction with the mouse, no noise and no keyboard input. It does not recognize the 'option key ' (used to get into the disk boot selector) until I pressed it for several minutes, and then the boot drive selector freezes as well.

  I don't have any external drives connected, and already tried SMC reset, reset the PRAM and reinstalling the operating system (normal wipe and wipe any partition).

  I always have Apple Care left. Help, please. Thank you.

  Hi Herojeff02:

  It seems that you have some SSD problems.

  Have you tried to boot safe mode. Try safe mode if your Mac does not commissioning - Apple Support

  You can start in recovery mode by pressing command + R and then using disk utility to check your SSD.

  See the following links: OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support

  Resolve startup issues and perform maintenance on disk with disk utility and fsck - Apple Support

  If you have Apple Care, I'd do an appointment at the Genius Bar. It could also be a hardware problem.

• Difference between the boot disk volume and boot drive

  in disk utility, which is the boot drive and boot boot disk volume? I am follosing instructions to restart my Mac into recovery mode and the instructions tell you to:

  "1. restart your Mac and hold command + R to start to enter in Recovery Mode."

  2. open disk utility in the OS X Tools window.

  3. Select your boot drive and the boot disk in the sidebar.

  4. click on the button "Repair disk" utility disk in the first aid tab.

  After you perform these routines to correct the partition scheme of your disk and formatting, use disk utility to perform a permissions set on your boot volume (this is in the same first aid tab). Then turn off your Mac (do not restart it) and perform a reset SMC (see here) and reset PRAM (see here) for good measure. »

  That's what I see in my disk utility:

  

  Which of these is the boot drive and boot boot disk volume?

  The boot drive is the entrance 320,07 GB. Disk and volume are the two Macintosh HD.

• What is the best way to upgrade my boot drive?

  My OS is El Capitan 10.11.1 - I use a mid-2010, build 5.1 MacPro and internal drive is the original. Rather than wait for my boot drive failure I thought go ahead and update. I bought a 4TB sister SIN to use as the new boot disk (OWC told me this NAS drive will work fine for a boot disk). I found the instructions - below seems simple enough. Is there a better way to go about this?

  > Save

  install the new drive in the #2 slot, 3 or 4

  Format as journaled extended.

  Stop completely, remove the new drive.

  Remove Drive 1 and place it in a different location as #2

  Put the new drive in the #1 Groove

  Start holding down the Option key

  Select Recovery

  Select the drive in the Groove #2 as a source

  Select the drive in the #1 as the destination location

  Let it run.

  Thank you!

  The latest trend (for example at the end of 2013 Mac Pro) is to use a minimum size but extremely quick boot disk, and then move your user files to other drives (such as a TB sister SIN 4 player). It was a good idea to time before Mac was released and inspired this article and its related articles:

  Tip: Create a lean, fast boot disk

  --------

  The second question has to do with the internal drives more than 2.2 to. If you use the CLEAR utility drive on this drive as an internal drive after 10.8.3 in any Mac OS X, it will set up a utility disk and logical volume group cannot erase or partition further. If you can only PARTITION, you will be fine.

  Post back if you get stuck, as there are (somewhat complicated) ways around this issue.
