• How to free space on the hard drive recovery disk?

  My J: drive (recovery) is near capacity after a reinstall of Windows 7. How to clear space on this drive?

  Hi John R H,
   
  The purpose of the training of recovery is to store all the files needed to do disaster recovery, when the system becomes unstable. The recovery disk is actually a partition on the hard drive of your computer - not a real physical disk. There is much less space than other drives. If you use the recovery disk to store files (such as backup files), the reader is full quickly and can cause serious problems when you need to use the system recovery.
  Note: Do not store files on the recovery drive. The only files on the recovery disk should be linked to a system recovery.

  Here's a post that addresses a similar issue. To resolve this issue, check the suggestion given in the post.

  Message "you run lack of disk space on RECOVERY (d :))".

• How to remove and replace the hard drive on a desktop Pavilion m9350f computer?

  not boot BIOS says search for device.  . Suspect problem is intermittent

  ShortTimer,

  I was trying to be polite and doesn't cause any anxiety. I asked if the BIOS can 'see' the hard drive and DVD player. (Forget the PMD, USB).

  As your motherboard is a M2N78 - LA. There was a race of (IMHO) production of chips from NVidia controller that were defective. Only this can explain the success or Miss boards failed in these units:

  This series of motherboard has been installed in many different models of HP computers. There are problems.

• How to organize files on the hard drive? (Not in collection). Lightroom 6, Macintosh

  In Lightroom-6 I want to start to organize photos on the hard drive ("issues").

  (At a later stage, I want to import photos from years back as well).

  I want to organize in "Years" and "month".

  from pictures of the year 2004: I want to create a folder named '2004' in this '2004' - folder I want to create subfolders 12 (months) appointed etcetera 2004-01, 2004-02, 2004-03, 2004-04. (01 = January, 02 = February 03 = March, etc.).

  It should look like this:

  2004

  > 2004-01

  > 2004-02

  > 2004-03

  > 2004-04

  > 2004-05

  etcetera.

  In the LR - app, I think that I am not able to create folders on the hard disk. I created folders in the "masters of Lightroom" - folder, but he won't show as expected in the LR - under 'Files' app after you start Lightroom.

  Before you begin to move the photos to the new folders created, I want to assure you the LR - app can still find later.

  Anyone got a good method or perhaps a statement-link? Other advice most welcome as well.

  Thank you!

  Arnie

  The import dialog box may create the calendar folder based upon import photos that are organized differently in the existing folders. Use the MOVE or COPY option. The instructions are here (see section 5): https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/help/import-photos-video-catalog.html

  In addition to the above, you can also organize using keywords.

• How to free space on the hard drive?

  Hello, in my "On Mac" section, it says I 233 MB of space on my 121 GB of Flash storage. Previously, I thought it was video files, but it was buggy mac section. I refreshed, hoping he would show me how much space I had left, but he stayed the same. That is the problem. I use my macbook for College written work and - maximum - work on Adobe Creative Suite. When I work on these I use a separate USB key due to the size of the files.

  The only files I have actively created/downloaded on my macbook are the files in the files of my 'Documents', 'Pictures' and 'Applications '. When I use "Get Info" on each, I see that my photo folder is great, My Documents folder is large 1.17 GB and my Applications folder is large 14,68 GB 889,9 MB. These are the only files that I use and backup the files needed for my Macbook running and working properly, the only files I want to keep.

  My question is, basically, if there is a way to lose all the files on my hard drive that are not necessary to keep. I'm not too good when it comes to computers, so I don't want to not just randomly start deleting things. Just to get these road, my garbage can is completely empty and I have nothing in my downloads folder. I have also no large files to film and, when I searched my Macintosh HD for files larger than 500 MB, there is no evidence, so I guess that this is caused by a large amount of small files (I tried to restrict research naturally but then come files that I wasn't sure of what they have done and therefore have not removed the still). If it helps, my about Mac filed 100,64 GB of my free space as 'other '. But I know that is not how much space was taken when I got the Macbook earlier this year and it should not be the size of the files that comes with it by default. There is also a way to restore all the files on my macbook at their stage of default, that I would also be interested, especially if there is a way to do it without rid of files I already have.

  I guess that's a very basic question, can someone help out me?

  1. never remove all the files that you do not understand the purpose. If you do, it's like opening the hood of your car and take bits out of the engine ebcause you think they are not necessary.

  2. it seems more likely that you must rebuild your Spotlight index.

  See the following page:

• How to take possession of the hard drive since the upgrade to Windows 7?

  I've upgraded to Windows 7 from XP.

  Unfortunately I can't access all the files on my old hard drive that is on my computer as drive E, nor I can access all the files on the external hard drive USB either. He says that access is denied. These readers are related to my old account on my XP system who crashed and died.

  How to "properly" take possession of these other drives on my new Windows 7 system?

  Previously, I tried to do with my user name on the Windows 7 system to have all permissions. It does not work. It changes the attributes of all files and folders on my other readers but once everything is done, I still have the same problem and I am unable to access it.

  I also tried to use a program called "edit permissions" and who did the same thing and I still have the same problem. No method worked.

  Please Microsoft, you designed these operating systems if please explain to me how to take full ownership and control hard 'MY' in my XP system discs so I can access all the 'MY' files and folders?

  Thank you.

  John

  1. In 'My Computer' (or simply 'computer' now), click on the drive and choose Properties.
  2. On the Security tab, click Advanced.
  3. On the owner tab, change the owner to be your username (you will need to search for and select your user name).
  4. Apply the new owner to "all subcontainers" (all files on the disc).
  5. Click OK until all of the settings are saved.
  6. Try to explore the disc again.

  Hello

  Unfortunately this Toshiba device it unknown to me and I don t have found all documents on the replacement HARD drive.
  But as far as I know, there should be only 2 possibilities how to do to remove the HARD drive.
  1.) under the disk HARD is placed at the bottom of the unit and you should only remove the cover of the HARD drive.
  Or

  2.) HARD drive is placed in the Notepad. In this case you will need to Remover the keyboard and some covers to replace the HARD drive

  Well, I can give you only that info. I think that if you want to know the detailed instructions, you should contact Toshiba service partner because it has a more detailed information on these cases.

• T5i - save videos directly on the hard drive of the PC?

  Hello world. I am new to using cameras and have recently bought my first, a Canon Rebel T5i.

  I'm starting to use it to record videos of talking head and it works fine. I'm not having any difficulty using it, but I'd rather recorded video, she writes directly to the hard drive of my PC, and not his flash drive.

  Is it possible to get there?

  I'm looking for in the instruction book and tried to find the answer on YouTube, but made no progress.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hi Buckspub,

  When you use the EOS utility, provided with your camera, shooting distance mode, it is not designed to record movies on your computer in real time.  In most cases, you will receive a pop-up window prompting you to save your data remains on your computer.
