• How to clone my disk to a new SSD

  Hi, communities,

  My hardware: Apple Mac Book Pro (mid-2009), El Capitan running and an airport Time Capsule 3 TB (with Active Time Machine).

  I want to replace my HARD drive. It's easy to find out how to replace it in your Mac Book Pro, but it is much more difficult to find the best way to clone my new SSD HARD drive.

  So my question is: what is the best way and the easiest to clone my disk for my new SSD.

  Hope you can help out me. Most of the information I found was really old.

  Thank you and best regards

  Install the SSD in a closed enclosure and connect it to your MBP via USB.

  Open disk utility > delete and format the SSD to Mac OS extended (journaled).

  You need a third party application cloning.  I recommend Carbon Copy Cloner:

  Run the application of cloning.  It will ask you if you want to copy the recovery partition.  Do.

  
  

  When you have finished the transfer of data/OSX, start the MBP with the OPTION key down.  Select the SSD drive and if it starts the MBP, make the transition with the HARD drive internal.  (You can install the HARD drive in case you used for cloning)

  Ciao.

• How to move Win7Pro from my HARD drive to a new SSD

  I am running Windows 7 Professional on a desktop Dell 560. The software that I use for astroimaging involves math matrix on piles of large images (~ 30 MB each) in "battery" 8 to 20 images to resolve fine detail. Doing this on the existing HARD disk is tedious, with a deconvolution race take from 50 to 90 minutes with a profusion of disk read/write cycles. I want to change the operating system of a new SSD with the software. Is there a way to legitimately transfer the OS and other applications for the SSD? I'm guessing that copying simply of the C: existing to the SSD drive to prove unsuccessful.

  Did he do that?
  TIA

  SSD of cloning:

  You can clone the installation for the SSD, provided that the SSD is large enough to accommodate the installation to be cloned.

  See http://www.ssdfreaks.com/content/664/how-to-clone-hdd-to-ssd-with-windows-7s-own-software or (easier) use a trial version of Acronis True Image Home 2012.

  Note that, immediately after cloning, you must stop and unplug the original installation. The disc can be reconnected once the DSS started successfully.

• Hard drive crashed, the new SSD and faded COA

  Hi all

  My laptop HP pavilion dv4t-1500 with a 500 GB hard drive is dead.  I bought a new 256 GB SSD to replace.  If I order the HP recovery discs, they will work as the new hard drive size is different?  I read in the forums that it may not work.

  I also read in the forums that I can use the product key from COA to install a new copy of windows 7.  However the 6 characters of the product key is faded

  If the recovery disks will not work, HP will give me the original COA product key so that I can do a fresh install?

  I bought a cheap SSD and I really don't want to face the prospect of having to buy a new windows license!

  Yesterday I received the HP recovery discs.  Installed perfectly on the 250 GB SSD.

  It seems that there are no restrictions with the recovery process, even after using a hard/SSD with a capacity different from the original OEM hard drive.

• HP Touchsmart, model 520-1070: can I replace a defective hard drive with a new SSD in a HP Touchsmart, model 520-1070

  The HD in my Touchsmart 520-1070 broke down.  I wonder if I can replace the defective HD with a SSD in the 520-1070?

  Any recommendations on the type of SSD, where I could acquire an and have the existing data migrated from defective HD would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  If you purchase the SSD as a migration kit, it will come with instructions.

  There is nothing you need to do in the BIOS.

  It is good to hear that you have had the foresight to save the data to the PC.

• How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

  Keep all image files both places?

  What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

  Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

  As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

  As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

  Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

• Where and how can I reinstall the external hard drive to the new HD to the computer?

  Original title: HD crashed.

  I want to thank the person who answered my question about the HD crashed I saved all my data and window xp. My next question is, how and where can I reinstall external hard drive for the new HD to the computer? Should I send it to drive c or where? I'm not strong when it comes to computers. I know just enough to get me in trouble. Thank you.

  Hello!

  You will need to use a full copy of Windows XP.  Should be a sticker with the product key on the side of your desk or below if it is a laptop.

  Once you have this drive, you can reinstall Windows XP.  After you have installed all the software and drivers, you will be able to transfer all your data to the new HARD drive.

  If you don't have a copy of Windows XP, you can probably get a copy of the recovery from the manufacturing of computer media.  Just to provide the model and serial number and they should sent it.

• Installed new HARD drive with the new installation of XP, old HDD ShowAs saw as the active partition, how to change this?

  I installed a new HARD drive with a new installation of Windows XP Edition family. I want to keep the old HDD and reformat the drive, but I can't because the second HDD is listed as active in the management of the computer. Why? It's not the drive that contains the operating system (Windows XP) that is initialized from.  I put the BIOS such that the new HARD drive is the boot drive. The old HDD has Windows XP on it, but isn't the startup disk. I just don't understand.
  If only the new HARD drive is installed, the computer management doesn't show that it or any other of its partitions are the active partition (C drive is listed as the system partition, of course).

  How can I get an active partition and no active partition when the new HARD drive is installed on a HARD drive that is not the boot drive, when I have two hard drives installed?

  In case it is necessary, the new HARD drive is a SATA and the old HARD drive is IDE with the cavaliers as a slave.

  The system partition is the Active partition. The system volume contains the system files needed to start Windows, Windows XP, these system files are:

  NTLDR
  Boot.ini
  NTDETECT.COM
  Ntbootdd.sys (present/used only with older SCSI controllers)

  Windows files are not necessarily on the system volume, they can reside on another volume, when on a different volume this volume holding Windows files is called the boot volume.

  When you install Windows on a computer, playing a mixture of IDE and SATA setup discs tends to favor with IDE drives on SATA drives and tends to use the IDE drive to house the system partition, (even if Windows is installed on a different drive).

  Running the command SYSTEM SET at a command prompt may shed some light on the problem...

• How to clone my original HD a new HD with OS Win7 simular to?

  Operating system: Win7 Home Premium (64-bit)

  Cell phone: HPG61

  Due to the strange behavior of your internal 500 GB hard drive, I tried to clone the drive to a new one (the same make and model). When I want to restore the image to the new HD, I have problems during the start-up of the PC (I should have a look which are several issues but I think it was something with license). What is the correct procedure to clone an OS original official sort of Win7 on a new hard drive? If this does not work, how can I do to install a clean Windows 7 on the new HDD without having to buy a new OS?

  Have you tried builtin Imaging window in Control Panel to create the Image of the system? You also need the system repair disc made in the application of boot from the restore.

  If all images require a license key, use the one of the sticker at the bottom of your laptop.

  BTW, if your tile is always legible & intact, it might be appropriate to cover with transparent tape. Many owners report damage to the sticker of license after awhile.

• Replacing the old hard drive to a new hard drive

  Hello!

  need help, I replaced my HARD drive with a new... How can I reinstall the existing operating system?

  What Type of format should, I used?

  Laptop model:

  HP Envy Sleekbook 4

  Windows 8 x 64

  The problem is that the BIOS key Code is Windows 8 and that you have installed Windows 8.1. The embedded key will not activate Windows 8.1. If you want to do this for free and use the key that came with the computer, you must install Windows 8, activate it (or it is activated) and then move to 8.1 by the store. Or just buy a key for 8.1 and use it to activate the installation you have.

• I have blown my motherboard on an old computer and hooked up my old hard drive to the new computer and want to transfer my favorites on the new drive but cannot find where they are located on the old drive - any help?

  My motherboard went bad on my old computer, but the hard drive was OK. I bought a new computer and plugged my old hard drive to it via a usb adapter. I would like to import or copy my favorites from the old hard drive to my new, but I can't find where they are. I was unable to determine the search for articles on the web. Be advised that my old hard drive is basically nothing more than a place of storage for files at this point. My old operating system is windows XP, and my new system is Windows Home Premium.
