I connect external hard drive to crush

I have a disc external hard - is possible to connect to my crush on the MacBook Pro and it moves faster when it connect to the USB port?

You can get a bolt of lightning > USB adapter, but it will not be a more quickly as the connection from one player to a USB port on the Mac unless you use several USB drives to a USB connection.

  • HP envy Phoenix: win 7 does not start with connected external hard drive

    I have a desktop HP Envy Phoenix with i7 chip and an SSD for the OS.  If I connect via USB external drive of 3 TB WD for the backup of the system does not start while it is attached.  The pc seems to be trying to boot from the outside, can't find the OS and does not start.  It will start fine with small external drives connected.  It is the size of the disk? Is there a way to fix this?

    Hello

    The WD drives seem to pose problems of my potential.  I have used other brands such as Seagate and Hitachi without running into problems with external USB drives causing the system to boot.  Maybe it's the USB adapter that I use which does not cause starting problems.

    @tpetras

    I used the adapter HP USB 3, which uses drivers NEC or TI and has never had a problem starting via a USB external (non - WD) readers.

  • My new Kindle Fire HD when connected to USB causes files on my external HARD drive to go away, they come back when the Kindle is disconnected and after a reboot, any help please

    If after installation with kindle, connected external HARD drive disappears

    USB ports are usually "matched" in groups, called hubs root.  These root hubs then control and distribute the power to the USB ports.  If any device on one of the two ports, the hub root, requires too much power, the other port loses power.  When a port USB Hub root loses power, the devices connected to the port 'disappears' of the Windows session.  Normally, after you disconnect the devices from the USB port and reconnect them "must" bring these.

    A free USB powered hub can help.  These allow usually additional power over USB ports, on its own USB ports.

  • Seagate external hard drive / / no display

    Recently I bought a Portable Seagate 2 TB external hard drive for my MacBook Air. I put all my movies, music, ext documents on my hard drive with my important homework. The reason why I did was reset my mac, then return all my old documents, photos ext, back to their place of origin. I have managed to do and frees a lot of space. A few days after my MacBook fell asleep with a connected external hard drive and now the hard drive is no longer present on the desktop or in finder. I am able to find in my "disk utility" , but for some reason, it shows the hard drive passed out faded gray and full? I tried to hook up with different cables and on the various devices as well. Also sang the first aid option in "disk utility" with no other results. I have contacted apple support and found out it was the external hard drive with the problem, so they couldn't help me. They then redirected me to Seagate Support, and I had already tried the methods they gave me (see list above). I was wondering if anyone here on communities of Apple has experienced the same problem as me, it would be that much appreciated advice you may have. I have important files that I need to recover.

    Help, please!

    Had a similar problem with external hard drive WD also on model MBA early 2015. Found if I disconnect the external hard drive restart MBA and then reconnect the external hard drive it was working normally again.

    Another thing I tried was still unplug HD plugin MBA on sector and re - a SMC.

  • Why my external hard drive gives me an error RAID?

  • External hard drive problems - we have most of the files to get a message "access denied."

    USB connected external hard drive was used with XP.  For a small period of time, we had to connect to a machine from W7.  Now that we are back to the XP machine, we have most of the files to get a message "access denied."  How we fix the problem.  The files are images, videos or music.

    Try this,

    Start in safe mode.
    Open your computer and right click on your external hard drive.
    Go to properties.
    Click Security.
    Click on Edit under a quote "to change permissions, click on change."
    Click on Add.
    Type in "everyone" in the white box.
    Then check in the box "total control".
    Press OK.

    This makes the hard drive usable by everyone (all users and different computers)

    I hope this helps.

  • I have a WD external hard drive that I used for a while and all of a sudden I can't.

    The device is a USB connected external hard drive. I used it on a regular basis until today. When I connect it it seems to connect (it lights up), and when he did it before she would open a window that would ask if I wanted to open and examine its contents. It does not now. When I go to Start computer it is no longer present upward with the other HD etc. I took it on another computer and it worked fine. I wonder if a driver does not work?

    Restore points should be back fairly in time, if you have enabled the restoration of the system.

    Read the information contained in the links I provided. about how to use system restore.

    You do not accept the available Restore Point.

    Hi Perry,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    According to the description, I understand that your external hard drive is not recognized by your computer.

    This could happen due to some system conflicts.

    I need some information.

    1. What is the make and model of your computer / external hard drive?
    2. You get no matter what error code or error message?

    Try the methods.

    Method 1: Run the hardware and devices Troubleshooter

    Open the hardware and devices Troubleshooter
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-hardware-and-devices-Troubleshooter

    Method 2:

    Step 1: I suggest you check in Device Manager if the external drive is listed there.

    1. Connect external hard drive to the computer.
    2. To open Device Manager, type devmgmt.msc in the start search box and press ENTER.
    3. Check to see if the external hard drive is listed.

    6. In general, look under device status for the message. After back if there is no error message.

    Step 2: Check if the external drive is detected in disk management.

    If the hard drive recognized in disk management and if there is no drive letter assigned, I suggest that you right-click on the drive and assign a drive letter and check to see if it helps:

  • Password protect an external hard drive connected to Time Capsule

    I have a WD passport external hard drive connected to my time capsule, so my wife and I can easily share files. I have the external hard drive connected through the locked time capsules WiFi network so someone in the House can not access however if they walked the time capsule and not plugged in the external hard drive they could walk away with it. When I try to password protect external hard drive then time capsule may not recognise, and so I can't use it as an external hard drive that is shared. No one knows how, to password protect the external hard drive connected to the time capsule as if someone physically stole the external hard drive it would be locked, but have yet still recognizable by Time Capsule when I plugged?

    Hope that makes sense.

    The only way to do is to encrypt the files on the computer.

    And you both use the same password. Unfortunately, this probably means that you can not share files directly... The TC is not a SIN... never, it was designed for this purpose so there no controls to help admin file sharing.

    If you create a DMG file on WD drive that encrypt you and you can copy files to and from... but only one at a time.

    Another method would be to use a specific software... Watch chronosync.

    http://www.econtechnologies.com/Chronosync/guide-sync-with-disk-image.html

    I don't him have not run in this configuration... so, you have to experiment if it manages what you want.

    I think that there will always be limitations on concurrent access from multiple computers.

  • Hello. I created a folder music on my external hard drive connected to my asus router.  I can now access the music through my media library.  How can I change the folder when I make new purchases to iTunes easily without doing it one by one

    I created a folder music on an external hard drive connected to my asus router.  I copied my music from my iTunes library in this folder access and can now my kodi media network.  How I updated the folder when I do new iTunes purchase without having to do it one by one thanks

    You can use a backup tool that updates only modified files.  You don't say what kind of computer you use.

    ITunes is actively using media on the external hard drive so you can replace it. Simply copy the media to one other player does not have iTunes it use it.  iTunes is probably still using media to your internal drive.

  • Cannot connect remotely to an external hard drive on iMac

    I have trouble connecting to remote a Macbook (10.10.5) of an external HARD drive mounted which is connected to an iMac (Mac OS X 10.10.5.) The iMac is connected to the internet via an airport express base station 7.6.4.

    I created an account of sharing only to connect to this drive and I've had no success connecting to it outside the local network of this external hard drive.

    Because the Terminal airport express base station is involved, y at - it sort of port forwarding for connect to this hard drive mounting?

    I've only tried to plug the hard disk via finder > go > connect to server > name.local/locationOfExternalHarddrive of the computer and have had no success so I think the explicit base station is the question?

    Any advice is greatly appreciated!

    I've only tried to plug the hard disk via finder > go > connect to server > computer name.local/locationOfExternalHarddrive

    This is assuming you have CCMM configuration and working properly... without it, Wan, there is no way that the computer can find computername.local

    You need the public IP address of the router... and there may be only a single router. Normally, it is not possible to use IP because it is dynamic, with a home ISP accounts then you must configure the global DNS name or a dynamic DNS account.

    Please read Tesserax doco on remote... the best method is Apple CCMM.

    Airport drive - remote (3 methods)

    A simpler method in my humble OPINION is teamviewer... same as Apple CCMM without as many restrictions.

    Any method of remote access requires a careful configuration of the home network. And the Mac must be able to wake on lan... (apple have their own fancy name for it).

  • External hard drive Canvio Basics 2.0 TB/To - device connection issues.

    Hello

    I recently bought an external hard drive and I can't connect my computer's hard drive. (Toshiba Canvio basics 3.0 - 2, 0 to/To - Usb 3.0 and 2.0)

    There is a pop up message saying that the device has been installed, but when I go to 'my computer' hard drive does not appear.

    Does anyone have suggestions on how this can be corrected? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Claire

    I thought that I should add a little more information...

    I tried to access the device on a computer, 2 notebooks, 2 TV and an Xbox, so it seems that the hard drive is the common problem.
    In addition, the drive appears in device under disk drivers Manager and he said that the hard drive had no problem but I can not access the hard disk.

    Thanks again
