• I don't have hard drive in the publishing service. How can I get Bechance, Facebook, etc back?

  I upgraded to LR CC. Now, I have only one option: hard drive as the publishing service. I would like to come back to the other standard preinstalled options: se, Facebook, Smugmup.

  Where can I find them and install them again. When you click on the tap "find more services online" that they are not available.

• Replacing an old hard drive causes the system had become unbootable

  OK, here's the scenario.

  Background:
  My old computer with Windows XP has been installed on a hard disk of 40 GB. Later through subsequent updates, I bought the upgrade Windows Vista Professional (retail) and proceeded to install Vista on a brand new 250 GB hard drive. Initially, he had some problems I did a clean install with upgrade to Vista, but then with the help of Mircrosoft support (and several hours of reformats and corrupt the old installation of XP) managed to get Vista installed hard disk new and active. I kept the old drive hard in the computer for about a year, but then noticed that he was starting to get out. I moved all the old information off the drive and recently bought a 1 TB drive to replace. I deleted everything that above with the exception of a few remaining files that won't let me not delete - documents and settings and startup records, respectively.

  Problem:
  When I take the old 40 GB hard drive to reside on Windows XP, my computer when startup is unable to find a drive it can boot from. Under disk management, it is labeled as system - even if the windows directory is on a completely separate drive. My intention was to replace the old hard drive, but I can't get my computer to recognize that it is not on the system drive somehow.

  Question:
  Is it possible to change what hard drive is recognized as a system disk or make sure I can get out the old hard drive and still keep my bootable system?

  Hello Lightningfst,

  Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers Forum.  First off I would say that, before trying any of the suggestions I'm about to do that you completely back up the contents of the drive with Vista Business as a precaution.  The first suggestion I have is to copy the MBR of the disk of 40G to 250G drive.  It could be as simple as that.  However, when Windows sees a drive and initializes it, Windows writes a serial number of 4 bytes in the MBR (sector 0) of the disc. No matter what partition you create on this disc is then associated with the serial number and the drive letter that the partition is given.

  When you then progress to clone a boot partition on the new disk with a cloning program that does not copy the MBR, the serial number of the old drive is not copied to the new disk, so the new disk retains its serial number Windows has seen before.

  When Windows starts on the new disc, he sees the serial number of the new drive and guess the partition that is on that now belongs to the previously selected drive letter which is almost always not C:. Since installing Windows starts on C:, there is now no C: drive when Windows starts. Trying to connect allows Windows attempts to load the user from C:\Documents and Settings\registry, and the C: drive is not there, so Windows simply to abandon the attempt to logon and closes a session back.

  If this happens to you after copy the MBR of the disk of 40G to 150G Unit let us know and we can help you solve the problems that.  I hope this information is useful.

  Thank you

  Jack

• I have an external hard drive and the althogh sound in 'remove hardware safely', it is not listed in 'my computer '.

  I have a HDD external and well that his "safely remove hardware" that is not listed in 'my computer' the problem is I am backing up Paolo and if I can not find I can't do.

  When I go to the hardware / device mananger it is in "O" but I can not find drive O

  Can someone please help.

  This external hard drive works on other systems?

  The drive will appear in the top of the disk management window?  If so, look at the column layout, Type, file system and status.  The "file system" must be FAT or NTFS.  From your description, it appears that Windows does not recognize the partition as being to the format in a way that he can use.  You may need to delete the existing partition (attention: this will remove all files that may exist on the disk), and then create a new partition in FAT32 or NTFS format.  Advice to do this, right-click the disk, choose 'Help', then go to:
  -> How To disk management...-> manage the volumes of base-> Delete, Create, or Format.

• Hard drive of the system had to be replaced, but the photos are saved anywhere else

  I reinstalled LR, but how do I get my pictures back inside?

  Installation of Lr has created a new empty catalog so replace it by your last backup to work.

  The default location is normally pictures or my pictures, unless you have selected a different location.

  LR to stop smoking and find catalog file and the file with the .lrcat ending for example MyCatalog.lrcat

  Instead of simply delete rename as MyCatalog_OLD.lrcat

  Now copy or drag your backup folder .lrcat file in your catalog folder, and relaunch LR or simply double-click the file restored .lrcat to launch.

  You need to get the actual image files in the same file & folder paths, but it is easy to re - connect entire folders of photos missing if necessary.

  See the document useful (Fig. 8) and the use of the location of the update folder.

  Once everything works OK, you can delete MyCatalog_OLD

  You have two activations and no more. If you need to register a third party, you will need to purchase another package. Yes, the installers can be copied to any media that you consider appropriate.

• I have three hard drives that I would keep spun down that I rarely access

  I have three hard drives that I would keep spun down that I rarely access.  Everytime I open a program he feels the need to run all three discs.  This is not a HUGE problem if it does not lag the whole user interface until the last disc gave.

  Resource monitor shows nothing.  It will also occur at random while I view media, he'll decide go upwards the other two disks, stop the film until they did.
  This is incredibly annoying and kind of defeated the purpose.
  -Benjamin

  He can turn them down but only until you do something else, and that they start up again.

• I used to have the windows xp Media Center until my hard drive crashed. I had to put a regular version of xp on my pc. can I get the media back version?

  I used to have xp media center edition 2005 on my pc until my hard drive crashed. I had to put a regular version of xp on my pc. I would like to put back the original version on it. is there one out there somewhere I can get my hands?

  Unfortunately, you can not install Windows Media Center in home or Pro.

  You will need to purchase a new DVD of WMC 2005.

  They are cheap now and I saw them on the Web for about $60

  Do a search and you will find them.

• Have PC, hard drive, is gone wrong, need to reload Windows XP Home edition, have CD, but have the product key on PC that he had instructed. Is there a way I can download it again?

  I have a PC Emachine that I bought with Windows XP Home Edition loaded on it, hard drive went bad and had to be replaced, I don't have a CD to reload my Windows, still have the product key sticker on the PC to save it. Is there a way I can download it? I have XP Pro on another PC, thought I could load and use the product key for my original PC, but who doesn't. Any ideas on what I can do

  Borrow an OEM Windows CD (it must be OEM) and install it using your product key. (You can make a copy of it for your future use - this isn't the CD you pay because it's the product key). A generic OEM CD maybe not some or all the drivers you need you would be safe to download from the website of the provider first.
