• Can I unpartition a hard drive? Can I stop automatic backup?

  My 75 year old mother gave me her laptop because it has performance issues. I'm pretty good at fixing my own laptop, which runs Windows XP. My mother's laptop using Vista, and I feel as if it was another planet! I am struggling to do some cleaning and basic maintenance because things aren't where I expect to be. Defragmentation tell me that is it (there is no applaud living), and it runs for hours and hours, then stops and indicates that the computer would benefit from defragmentation. I don't know what he does all these hours, but he seems to be caught in a loop and not really defrag.

  BIGGER PROBLEM: His HP laptop appears to come from the factory with Vista and the partitioned hard drive. He runs a program of automatic backup. We want to STOP the backup program and if possible, put the HDD on a C drive. Why? Because my MOM uses only the Internet. Period. She has never, in six years, NEVER open a single program on the computer other than Solitaire. She uses the Internet for e-mail, shopping, to buy plane tickets, check sports scores, watch YouTube and Facebook videos check. She has never created or saved a file photo of the document, etc. Not a single one.

  The D drive and kept to give a message every few seconds it was complete. I deleted all the files I could except for the marked thing 'Partition I think with running auto backup, it will just fill in again. Still, I don't know what it's backup since only MS files on the computer. The "My Documents" folder is empty.

  My mother didn't need to backup all the files. She wants to stop error messages and she wants the D drive and go. FIRST: Can I turn off the automatic backup program? I don't know where to look for it or how to stop it.

  >: Can I cut first automatic backup program? I don't know where to look for it or how to stop it.

  RE: Disable the automatic backup of files
  Start button > in the search box, type Task Scheduler > press ENTER...
  expand (click the pointer before) Task Scheduler Library
  expand Microsoft
  expand Windows
  Windows backup, click on it
  Right-click to AutomaticBackup > click on disable
  That's all.

  RE: defrag
  In vista, disk defragmentation is done automatically "in the background".
  No need to defragment manually, not ot mention manual defragmentation will go for HOURS.
  It does not show the progress, or give you a report on what has been done by disk defragmentation.

  RE: replace the hard drive in a lecteurC. Not a good idea. Read PS. paragraph.
  But, since you asked, here's the tutorial - Delete and Extend. I'm not quaified to give advice on this subject. http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/95418-disk-management-delete-extend.html

  P.S. Your D drive is your recovery Partition. It is not to be touched, to add or remove items in or out the drive d Partition Recovery is used in case of system crash. It allows you to restore the system.
  Hope that you have not deleted the data necessary to make the system recovery.

  It is obvious that the D drive and has been used to make backup files. There is reason why you saw the message "D drive is full."
  Recovery partition is usually about 10 to 15 GB in size. Soon to fill upward if used for the backup of files.

• after update, the Favorites have disappeared. There is no automatic backup in the last 2 months. under the restoration, it gives me the possibility to restore until today.

  all of a sudden I have no Favorites.

  I read to all bookmarks, clikc backup and restore, restore and it will list the last 10 backups. the only listed backup is starting today, and no bookmarks are added when I restore

  I also saw to look on the desk in the old firefox files... most recent automatic backup was 2 months ago... it's too old

  I can't find the latest bookmarks files

  If you haven't tried stopping and restarting Windows because this problem occurred, I would suggest trying it. Some users have reported a problem after the updates of Windows where they see only partial information in Firefox, perhaps because of a problem of privileges.

  After that, if the problem persists, I'll ask you to verify a parallel settings folder. You can open the settings file (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

• Big Bill - is automatic backup of iCloud the cause?

  Bill last month was $600 US for iPhone 6 s daughter. Use FaceTime on average once or twice a day. She uses uTube several times (short) a day for his 16 month boy manageable when changing layers or him in the car seat or to occupy his attention when she has to do something that requires his full attention momentary. She takes several photos and short videos, two or three times a day. It has 64 GB of storage and storage in iCloud. The phone company blames iCloud through its automatic backup function. Each additional GB of data that it uses on its allocation of 8 GB about is charged at $7.50 American. Last month, she used more than 70 additional GB. I want to reduce this cost. The answer phone company is that they cannot do anything, it's the Apple phone that's to blame. Is it true?. One of the problems is that we have is that she doesn't have a computer apple, just an iPad. She can not save on my computer so if I bought a computer would be backup on which eliminates the automatic obligation of the automatic backup of the installation iCloud?. Sorry for this question long but I'm desperate to reduce the monthly cost on his phone. The other two iPhones that we must work normally, but then none of us have 18 months to deal with.

  iCloud backup will only take place on the wifi is not back ups that are running with the cellular provider bills. Besides that, generally, they will be much smaller that any movie she is watching tube you.

  One way to reduce the cost would be to stop doing the things she does until she can do so via wifi.

  I must say tho 70 GB is a lot for a phone.

• automatic backup

  Is there an automatic backup feature in Firefox? If so, keep - you there different versions?

  I had to restore my PC. Once I did, I logged on my account of Firefox assuming it would sync my previous Favorites and passwords, but synchronize empty profile instead.

  Fortunately, I still had most of the things in Chrome, but unless there is an automatic backup feature, I don't want to be in this situation again.

  Kindly let me know if such a thing exists.

  First, if you haven't already done so, you can disable the cache of the hidden files and folders. This article has the steps for Windows 7, which I think are similar on the 8.1 Windows: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files

  Then, you can down

  Your username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles C:\Windows.old\Users\

  Here you can find a profile semi-randomly-named file, or you might find more than one. Most likely, the most recently updated the folder is the folder of the previous settings.

  You could move some key files selectively into your folder of currently living settings, or restore the entire record of the old settings.

  For selective restore, see this article: recovery of data from an old profile.

  For the steps to restore full, please see this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1024189

• Automatic backups made in libraries that are not yet open?

  I'm familiar enough with FCPro X (using the latest version 10.2.3) but I saw something for this, I don't really want.

  I hope I'm wrong!  That's why I write here

  When we are editing in a library, FCPro is automatic backup library every 10 or 15 minutes or more. (Don't know how many times, but not important here.)

  It's a good idea that Apple did this.  Always nice to have automatically saved versions.

  But what I found, is if we said, 10 different projects, we are working on--which means 10 different libraries on our hard drive FCPro creates these libraries for backup automatically on all 10 libraries!  Even if we have not opened a library for 6 months, it still gets automatic backups!

  Sometimes the backup of the library can be 30meg, or so, if we are changing for 3 hours - find us in each of the 10 libraries there are several automatic backups created - even you of course, nothing has changed in the library!  Maybe 8 of the 10 have not yet opened and yet in the "Final Cut Backups" folder, there will be a few hundred meg of backups automatically: of course it must, because backups are in libraries, we haven't yet opened!

  I know not how to disable this feature - so FCPro stops auto - and we can do separately in each library - but that's a lot of extra work, remembering that libraries are "automatically backup" and which are not.

  I guess I want to come is that we would like FCPro continue to automatically back up the libraries that we change in French - but I'm correct that it also backs up the libraries that we don't even open using hundreds of megs of useless data.

  All I want is the feature of works as is, but only when opening a library - NOT in others who have not been affected.

  I am writing to be sure I understand it.  This doesn't seem to be the case?  Is there a way to tell FCPro (not for each library separately) only to make automatic backups in I work in libraries?

  Thank you for reading this... what I hope I am WRONG!  And there is a workaround or something?  It's just a nuisance to have to remember to turn on all the automatic backups on 'OFF' of each library - but then activate it when you work on 1 or 2 - and then turn them off again.

  Any thoughts?

  Thank you

  Larry

  All 10 libraries appear in the library list? If they are, why not close those that you don't need for this session?

  That said, I never had what you describe. Where these libraries are stored? Is the drive (or drives) in the OS X Extended (journaled) format?

• Can I import my Firefox bookmarks from an automatic backup to a new MacBook Pro computer?

  I backed up my MacBook Pro 11 OS X Lion with Time Machine system and then got a new MacBook Pro 13 OS X Mountain Lion system. I can't use Time Machine to restore my system. I was able to drag and drop my files, but I forgot to backup my Firefox bookmarks HTML. Are automatic backups .json accessible Firefox for me on my external drive for Time Machine? Can I find one of these backups and restore it on my new laptop? I did not all new bookmarks, crushing would not be a problem.

  Have you already found the Firefox profile folder in this Time Machine backup?

• Implement TC as just an automatic backup

  I used TC as a router and back until I changed my ISP and they provided their own router.  Now just have to use the TC as an automatic backup, I'm having problem setting up.  Can I connect the TC by wireless to my new network of woman?  The TC or the laptop means network initial when the TC was also the router then how can I wipe the TC (data are old) and start from scratch and how can I do this?

  Can I connect the TC by wireless to my new network of woman?

  Sorry, but no. The TC must connect to the ISP router with wired Ethernet wired, permanent. Connection of one of the ports on the router ISP LAN <>- to the "O" on the TC WAN port.

  If you want your backups to be officially supported by Apple, you have to back up by using the wireless TC, or by connecting your Mac directly to CT using a wired Ethernet connection.

  Know that it is possible that you pourriez be able to save on time using the ISP wireless Capsule... but the downside of this is that it will no help from Apple's Support if you use this method for backups.  So your call on that.

  
  

  How can I clear the own TC (old data) and start from scratch and how can I do this?

  The method for doing this varies depending on the operating system you have installed on your Mac.

  Do you know what operating system you currently have installed on your Mac?  Otherwise, click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen, then click on about this Mac and poster on the Version of OS X number that you see there.

• How can I set up automatic backup on iPhone 6s

  I bought a new iPhone 6s more yesterday. I had been to support my old iPhone 5 up to my computer. I thought that the new phone was set to automatic backups for iCloud, but I just got a notification indicating that the phone had not been saved for many months.

  How we configure it back to iCloud automatically at a certain time of day?

  You cannot set it for a certain time of the day. Once your backup is activated on the phone, backup it once daily when the unit is connected to power, a Wi - Fi connection and the screen is locked. Go to settings > iCloud and make sure active backup, and you can try a manual backup. You can use this document to support to solve the problems of the iCloud backups.  Get help from backup of your device in iCloud - Apple Support

• My iPad is no longer the automatic backups in icloud. When I try to do it manually it gives me an error message

  Automatic backup on icloud no longer works. When I try to run it manually it gives me an error message

  Please check that your device is correctly connected to the wireless internet (settings > wifi) and is plugged into a power source, check also that you have enough space in iCloud for your back upward.

  You can check the space available in settings > iCloud > storage and the space needed for the next backup to the settings > iCloud > storage > managing storage > backups > appliance > Back Up Options > next backup size (wait for the spinning until the gear icon).

  Assuming that you are eligible for iCloud upward, you should try a forced first stop, hold down the buttons side in top and home together until the unit stops, then restart by pressing the side/up button.

  Then, try to connect the device to a new location (different WiFi network)

  If your backup continues to fail, you can try to disable the backup on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > BackUp), reboot the device and then turn on BackUp on new.

  If it does not help disable backup again, remove your existing back to the top of the settings > iCloud > storage > managing storage > backup > appliance (scroll down) > delete backup, restart the device and then turn on BackUp.

  If you are unable to make a return to the top, try to connect on iCloud (settings > iCloud (scroll down) > Sign Out (you will need to enter your password at this point), restart the device and sign in iCloud to settings > iCloud.)

  The next thing to try would be to restore your network settings. (Settings > General > reset > reset network settings)

  Reset your network settings will erase your cell phones and wireless network settings, including saved networks, passwords for wifi and VPN settings, that you can use. It will affect to the Internet but will not be an impact on telephone services because these settings are automatically configured by your carrier. It may take a few moments to enter again all your network settings, but it shouldn't cause you any major problems. If you are comfortable re - enter your network settings, you can try this step earlier in the troubleshooting procedure, i.e. after the forced shutdown suggested above.

  If this does not help, try to disable some elements for the back upward in a model to try to establish if your problem is caused by specific data on your device. You can do it with settings > iCloud > storage > managing storage > backup > this device > Back Up Options.

  If you are still not able to perform a backup from iCloud, you can try to restore your phone which you should do by making an iTunes backup via your computer and restore from that.

  Be able to go back to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you have access to a computer or rarely have access to one, however unless you need specifically to use iCloud to go back, you'll find a backup on iTunes much more convenient and possibly more reliable. However if you save up to iTunes be sure to encrypt the back upward if you want to keep your data on health and passwords etc.
