How to back up files after a HARD disk failure internal?

My Macbook Pro (version 2012, obtained again a few months ago) could not start after getting in the middle of the loading screen and after trying to repair disk utilities, he told me that it is not repairable, and I need to save as many files as possible and try to reinstall the drive/operating system. I wasn't expecting a problem of this size so little time, so I didn't have a backup of my files either facts as it was not visible all the problems with my computer before he decided to break up after it sleep for a while. I have my external hard drive to transfer files, but when I try to use the function "restore" in the disc utilities (erasing files on my external drive and move my Mac HD here) it tells me that it is not a map of GPT partition on my external hard drive. I don't have a mac for the recovery target mode. I guess I might have to install OSX Yosemite on the external drive but how do I do this and how can I move my files (if possible) that him?

I have to save it as I have a lot of paid apps installed in my mac.

Thank you very much!

Sorry for the hearing that, I had the same problem when my SSD PCIE crashes and I know that his could be much more frustrating on the losses of personal data that the device already has simply malfunction, since your HARD disk drive starts rained and you do not another machine of Mac, try visiting the genius bar with your Mac and another external drive start your computer in target disk mode and use a thunderbolt cable connect to the genius bar test computer, if your internal drive seems to read, you know what to do then, if it is not or not yet readable and you still don't want to not give up your data, you might need to turn the player on recovering data from third-party company to disassemble your hard drive and do it for you , and the cost is usually higher than normally expected.

But you said that your attempt to return to your 'paid apps', I don't know which way you have those apps, but the property of an application generally belongs to your method of purchase (as your account), but not the machine. If you paid for apps for your Apple ID, you have them again in your Apple ID and able to re-download after that your Mac got repair, if you have Steam games, they will also with the account Steam, not a single Machine, so be sure the property type of the apps then all do next

  • How to specify the file of virtual hard disk when you create a new virtual machine using virtual hard disk on the data store?

    I'm new to PowerCLI and find quite simple, but in the documentation I read, I don't see how to use a virtual hard drive, existing on a data store when you create a new virtual machine.

    Is this simple registration on the virtual hard disk, or did I miss something?

    My current create VM is the following statement:

    New-VM

    -Name $TargetHostName -host $TargetVMCenterHost -data store $TargetVMCenterDatastore DiskMB - 20000 -MemoryMB $TargetHostMemoryMB -NumCPU $TargetHostCPUs -ID $TargetHostOS -CD -Description $TargetHostName

    Thank you!

    Hi Paul,.

    This problem may occur if you perform a hardware important change to your computer, such as upgrading the hard disk. If a major hardware change requires activating Windows again, you will advise and will have three days to activate your copy of Windows.

    Another common cause of failed Windows validation occurs when you try to install Windows on more computers than your license allows. For example, if you have purchased a copy of Windows, installed on the PC more than one online validation may fail because the product key has already been used on another computer. Normally, the rule for most copies of Windows is that only one copy of Windows can be installed on a PC. Go to Microsoft Volume Licensing to learn what your license allows.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    original title: how iget back my files after resetting my computer?

    I recently had to resett my computer after trying to go wireless, my broadband provider sent me a defective router and my laptop just crashed! I had to restore it back to factory settings and judt wondering if there is any chance of getting my pictures back and my itunes library and files?

    If you have an installation clean back to factory settings, you normally wiped your hard drive clean during the process.

    You can try this program:

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/Recuva.html

    Recuva is a file undeletion tool that allows you to analyze your hard drives or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you a list of files that have been found, as well as an assessment of their potential for recovery, a preview option, and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g. images, audio etc.) and choose between a quick and a thorough analysis approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found while parsing, to avoid any future recoveries.

  • hard drive: I want to back up files on my hard drive of diving, how do you do that?

    I want to back up files on my hard drive of diving, how do you do that?

    You can use a hard drive, but it is not the drive on which the system or the boot is running.  If you have a second drive in your system that contains system information or startup, you can use this disk for backups.  The wizard backs up (Start / Control Panel / backup and restore) will guide you through the process and provide you with the options you can choose to send the information - which should include this disc hard if it meets the requirements more fully covered in the following article.

    Here's a FAQ on the backup and restore that can be useful to some of your questions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Back-up-and-restore-frequently-asked-questions.

    Here is an article that describes the process of backup and restore in Vista: http://netsecurity.about.com/od/secureyourwindowspc/ss/vistabackup.htm.

  • How to transfer music from an external hard disk files the reader thumb

    I have my music on my external hard drive and I have a usb input on my car radio (up to 8 GB), but I tried to transfer playlists of hd for the thumb without result. I synchronized in wmp11 but also tried to add files to wmp, but the files on the hard disk are staying to the format of the album and do not appear as they do id they are on my hard disk. is there a post hd USB RIP tab with drag and drop each song in a record high desk then copy of thumb? all the files were on my old computer with windows xp and it was much easier to use it. WTF.

    Hello knottywolf,

    ·         Have you tried to copy the files from the external hard drive to the flash drive?

    ·         What are the type of files that can be played by your car stereo?

    ·         After a synchronization of devices, have you tried to copy the tracks instead copy the playlist?

    If you are not able to transfer the playlist directly from Media Player, you should try to copy the files to your external hard drive from Windows Explorer and paste them to the USB.

    Thank you

  • How can I copy files from project Waveburner to another internal drive?

    How can I copy files from project Waveburner to another internal drive without losing the connection to the files audio orig.?

    Thank you for your time,

    Since no one answered my call, I sat and researched and studied WaveBurner behavior and I can myself answer my question and solve. Since there were a lot of people asking similar questions on WaveBurner files I will post what I learned.

    Whenever you drop your audio files in the list window to make your WaveBurner CD copy not copy your audio files, but relies on the original audio file, where they are located. So whenever you move the files orig. and you open WaveBurner, it can't find those and displays an error window to suggest it will search for the missing file or if you know where he is now lets you find manually. WaveBurner usually place the .wb3 project file that contains everything including your home folder.

    For this reason, I reserve now an audio file WaveBurner also folder in my home folder. In order to save themselves from WaveBurner cannot find the audio file, all audio files that I do, I put in my folder of audio files WaveBurner first, then copy them in WaveBurner from there.

    When I need to use a bigger hard drive I copy .wb3-WaveBurner projects based, but also my

    Sound folder WaveBurner for the home folder on the new hard drive.

    WaveBurner is now all audio files without problem.

    I hope that this will be a unique problem to someone else. Happy WaveBurning.

    W.W.
