• How can I know if an external drive has been used for Time Machine and what computer it came with too?

  How can I know if an external drive has been used for Time Machine and what computer it came with too?

  I have several laptops and iMacs. I spent the relocation of the year and only used the MacBook Pro.

  Now I'm trying to figure out which drive goes with which computer

  I connected just a disk seagate 1.5 t and the first thing he did was to ask if I wanted to use it as a Time Machine drive.

  (1) if it is the TM disk accompanying this computer don't would not it have just started upward automatically?

  (2) what happens if I would have said yes?

  (3) I don't even know if it's been activated for TM. Is there a way to tell? It may hold just for iMovie files and other programs associated with a computer from my past.

  All readers of backup Time Machine contains a folder named: Backups.backupdb. If you open this folder, you'll find another folder with the name of the computer that has been saved. If several computers have been saved on the same disk, you will have several folders.

• Cannot read iphoto library stored in an external drive, after the installation of el capitan and photos

• The document has been changed since its creation and use of the extended functionality is no longer available

  I have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 2015.016.20039 on my system. I filled a form using Foxit Reader. When I tried to open the form with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC I received the error "the document enabled extended in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC features. The document has been changed since its creation and use of the extended functionality is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of this document.

  I tried other PDF programs, no problem at the opening of this form.

  

  Function "Activation reader" comes from the original shape, and it's essentially a digital signature. It is specific for the free product of Viewer PDF by Adobe (aka Adobe (Acrobat) Reader).

  The problem is that only Adobe products are able to (re) make these documents without breaking the seal of the digital signature.

  So, what happened in your case is the Foxit Viewer broke the seal during the recording of back and what's. Using Acrobat, you can save a copy of the form, and then continue will fill. Otherwise, you will be better off to start over, but stay with viewers Adobe PDF all the time, working with the form, or with a different Viewer, once again all the time you work with the shape.

  BTW, player XI and most recent no. have more need of extended for more rights blocked by previous versions of Reader. This is not enough in this case; only, it would be useful for the sender of the form.

  Update (after rereading of the original message): if it's just for viewing or print the form, you can ignore this message. You can also try to save just, you have a version of player who no longer has the rights extended (at your risk).

  I hope this can help.

• External drive has failed

  I have a terabyte external drive that I use for backup with Time Machine. When I restarted my iMac this morning there was a mistake that OSX could not write the disk. It is said that he can still read, but not write (plenty of space on the disk). I tried to run disk first aid on the disk but it completely after about a minute and said: 'first aid process has failed. If it is possible to backup the data on this volume. Click OK to continue. Details on the error message include:

  Check the file catalog.

  Invalid key length

  G volume could not be verified completely

  File system check exit code is 8

  ...

  File system check or repair a failure.

  Operation failed.

  Is there anything else I can do, or the drive is now a paper weight?

  It seems that the file system on the external drive is messed up.

  (1) you can try a more powerful file system recovery tool.

  Perhaps Disk Warrior has the best reputation for this:

  (2) you can reformat the drive with disk utility

  How old is the drive?  You can think to replace the hd in the case of the external drive.  It is usually a fairly simple process.  Remove the drive encloser to understand what type of connection of the disk is used.

• drive external drive has a drive letter after changing from fat32 to ntfs

  I have an external drive seagate expansion 1 TB that has a usb 2.0 and the source of clean energy, which I transferred all music, videos ect.

  I thought I'd be smart and plug it into my xbox360 to live stream vids but all I ended up doing was changing all files to FAT32. I went through the process of change it back to ntfs and then rebooted my pc, but now the external hard drive has no drive letter or icon, although I can always find it plugged into usb as mass storage and it looks like that there are still files.

  Ive tried to make the new drive letter in disk management, but the option is not available, ive also tried ubcd but if honest im im not for sure how to run the program and connecting it to another pc does nothing. Ive tried also to update driver, but all it says it is only his good health and no new update.

  Is that what I do will allow me to open the external hard drive and keep my files that I hope is still intact to take it to a pro to fix...

  Your description of what you did does not sense, so it is difficult to determine what are the things to the State in so it is difficult to give you advice on how to solve this problem.

  As a first observation, although when you got first the reader he might well have been formatted in FAT32, storage of files on it has no "Edit."  Because Windows understands FAT32, files would have stored on the HDD external and recovered as usual.  However, FAT32 imposes a 4 GB file size limit, so if you work with video, you probably want to reformat the drive to NTFS.  Sure, reformatting the drive erased everything that was on the disk, so I hope you kept your files to their original location before formatting.  If you format the drive without saving files AND that you have not used the drive, you can recover the data by using a tool likeRecuva data recovery.  Of course, the recovery of a 1 TB drive will take time...

  Please, step by step in detail what you were doing as "the process of change to ntfs.

  Please describe what shows disk management, in the upper pane, both in the lower pane.

  There should be 10 columns in the upper pane:
  Volume
  Page layout
  Type
  File system
  Status
  Capacity
  Free space
  % Free
  Fault tolerance
  Overhead

  The lower pane should have a color bar (or bars) that indicates if the space is used as a partition primary, unallocated, etc..  You can see the colors associated with different types on the view > settings > appearance tab.  The lower pane should also indicate if the drive is "online".

• Since I downloaded El Capitan I think I can't paste it into my external hard drive.  I use to download my card reader, copy it, and then download to a new folder on the external drive.  It will not work now and nor can I create new folders on the hard dr

  I used to download pictures from a card reader, copy them, and then stick it on my external hard drive.  Since El Capitan of download, it does not work - I can download and copy, but can not stick to the external hard drive.  I can't set up the files on the external hard drive either.  However, I can download what is already on the external hard drive without any problem.

  How the external drive is formatted?

• "display driver has stoped working, but was recovered" and then shuts down the system. "

  I have a problem with the opening of my yahoo email because my computer just Bonnac outside and flashes once or twice and says "display driver has stoped working, but was recovered" then shuts down the system. " Itsriving crazy me :(     (I have windows vista & pentium bicoeur.)

  This means that there is a problem with your graphics card. I suggest that to update your Windows and check of course latest service pack installed. Also check Windows problem and Solution Center and see if everything suggested installation listed there. It can make it appear to update your graphic card.

  If this isn't the case, try looking in the card of your gaphic provider or your PC support Web site to update its driver.

• My hard drive has suddenly changed its format NTFS and I need to solve this problem

  my local C drive has suddenly changed to NTFS after I installed a game (Battlefield 2) and restarted my computer.
  I do not see the memory of my hard drive and I can't open some programs such as AVG anti-virus.
  I tried to run cmd as administrator, but it appears with a message «windows cannot access cmd.exe...»
  I can't get back to the time before what is happening.
  How can I solve this problem?

  In Internet Explorer, try tools, Internet Options, Connections tab, LAN settings if the box has been checked, uncheck the box "use a Proxy Server" and click OK, and click OK. Some malicious programs use the proxy server to redirect when you connect to the internet. You must then restart in Mode safe mode with networking and download and run Malwarebytes and Superantispyware in accordance with what I posted earlier.

• X 1 carbon 20 has 7 - unable to detect the monitor on the dock Onelink DisplayPort

  Hi, I recently brought a pro Onelink dock for my carbon X 1 so I can connect to my Acer XB270HU monitor when I'm at my desk. But when I try to connect using the Displayport on the platform I'm unable to connect and windows seem to be unabe to see Webs. I tried 3 different cables and the thing came. I am able to connect to the other monitors using DVI from the dock of Onelink simply not Displayport.

  Well, I noticed there was a new drivers and firmware for the dock relesed recently so I thought I'd give this proplem another shot.

  I can now confirm that with the v2.30.00 of v11015 and the firmware of the driver everything works perfectly.

• External drive has a different drive letter now, he does not see Lightroom Catalog.

  The problem started when I plugged an additional external USB key. The drive that I use for my photos was labeled F:, now G: is labeled, even after you remove the extra disc of installation. The catalog in LIghtroom is still pointing on F:, which currently doesn't "exist". The physical drive is fine - Windows Explorer sees all files. I see two approaches to solve this, neither one of which I know how to do: (1) reallocate the letter F; at the promenade repoint (2) catalogue to G:.

  Any contribution welcome!

  Thank you

  Chris

  Those are the two choices.

  To change the drive letter, go to Google and type in

  change the Windows drive letter

  To change if Lightroom finds the photos, see Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing

• Linksys wireless-g usb network adapter unable to detect the router using windows XP desktop PC

  I've changed in broadband Orange yesterday and since then my adapter is unable to find the network (it was working fine with TalkTalk until I changed).

  He managed to find a couple of other networks that are nearby but nothing else.

  I have a laptop (windows 7) who finds the router Orange immediately. I tested the adapter with the laptop and it finds the router Orange plus about 10 other nearby networks.

  I rang Orange who crossed their tests and not found any problems. I uninstalled and reinstalled the adapter on the windows XP desktop, but I get the same result.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  Thanks for the reply.

  I got it finally work last night after a day of cleaning up!

  Even if the network does not have to be detected in the available wireless networks "choose" I tried the "New Connection Wizard" and entered all the details that came with the router. The adapter found the Orange router but nothing else in the region.

  For now, it works but there is a problem somewhere, because I don't see any networks, I can see on my laptop.

  See you soon.

• My Wd hard drive has been locked with Bit Locker and I don't have a password or recovery key. Please help me?

  MR PRESIDENT, I LOCKED UP MY HDD WD 320 GB WITH BIT LOCKER OF WINDOW 7. DUE TO SOME PROBLEMS, I CHANGED MY HARD DRIVE & FORMATTED OS WHERE I KEPT THE RECOVERY KEY. I COULDN'T REMEMBER MY PASSWORD AND RECOVERY KEY. I HAVE VALUABLE DATA in HDD. KINDLY HELP ME TO RECOVER DATA

  THANKING YOU.

  Sorry, the news is not good. Some time ago, you have chosen BitLocker because you want to protect your data against unauthorized access. If someone had told you that anyone can crack the encryption by asking a little help in this forum, would you have chosen BitLocker?

  BitLocker is as good as its reputation. Unless you followed best practices and created your own backdoor, your data is lost.
