You have a few choices. You can buy a 3rd party program to backup such as Acronis True Image or Norton Ghostor you can install the program NTBackup comes with XP Home, but is not installed by default:

Disk utility finds several files and folders after formatting external hard drive
It is somewhat an Enigma to me. I bought an external hard drive that I wanted to use to store my Time Machine backups. I formatted in Mac OS extended (journaled case-sensitive) without any problems, however, I noticed that disk utility indicated that I had 18 and 59 files (space used = 448,1 Mb)! I ejected the disc, it reconnected and utility found 64-19 records to disc now! How is that possible? What is going on? I used the 'diskutil list' command on the Terminal, and I found the following:
/ dev/disk2
#: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme * GB 500,1 disk2
1: disk2s1 EFI EFI 209.7 MB
2: Apple_HFS disk2s2 backup 499,8 Gb
I see there are 2 partitions, even if I made a partition during formatting of the drive. I don't know if this 'normal' or if I'm doing something wrong. I would be very happy any help you can give! Thank you very much!
It's normal. new disc format have information. When you start the firmware queries drives to see what is on them to find if they ae bootable

I want to copy a folder to an external hard drive with the file already on it and not having to replace all the files each time. I just want to click and drag the folder to the external hard drive and have it add new files I've added in the folder on my pc over time on the external hard drive. It's annoying to have to replace alllll the files each time.
Thank you!

I want to install windows 7 and I get an error saing that I need to install via windows PE? How can I go about it?
Hello
1. you try to perform a new installation of Windows 7?
2. where did you buy the Windows 7 DVD?
This particular message occurs generally if you try to perform an upgrade on the spot of a recovery disc or installation support OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) that contains a custom defined configuration and can't stand not running an upgrade installation.
The message means that you probably need to start using the installation media. You can also contact the manufacturer of your computer to determine the type of installation media that you have and to confirm what options are available when booting from the disc.
Here are some links that provide additional information about the installation of Windows 7:

How can I change lightroom 5 previews smart on the book of mac pro (mbp) when lightroom master image files 5 are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp? So far when I try to disconnect the external hard drive the mbp, I get the pop following window: "external hard drive A" disc could not be ejected because it uses 'Lightroom '. Exit this application and try out this disc again. When I do that and restart Lightroom 5, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - screen select catalog appears, but does not list my external hard drive A as a choice.
I've been reviewing Adobe's Lightroom Help | Smart web page Previews Lightroom 5 and still have not been able to understand what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
HI Thomas,
Thank you very much for your suggestions! They finally gave me the direction I go solve the problems I had. Basically, the Mac Book Pro based Lightroom irdata files still had thumbnails. Once I removed the and redirected Lightroom external hard disk, smart previews of the external drive work when the player is well off the MBP. Much obliged.
I was wondering if you have any suggestions on how to backup all the files content and related data of Lightroom that exists on the external hard drive to another external hard drive as a backup? Ideally, it would be great if I could be able to launch security HD since the Mac Book Pro and do the work of Lightroom with the backup image files and intelligent previews correctly. Thanks again. Your help has been invaluable.
