  I currently store my pictures on and an external hard drive.  Lightroom 6 was not able to find the picture momentarily files.  I inserted an external Flash DRIVE after removing the hard drive and the computer renamed the stick with the same drive letter that has been designated by Lightroom to store my photos.  I could go into my Windows 10 and reset the player to the letter that Lightroom has given at the beginning of the external hard drive.   However, I know this can happen again, if I connect any stick USD or another device, while the external hard drive is not connected to my laptop.   I found the information that I can do the new designation of the final drive by choosing a letter it is 1/2 way or higher in the alphabet.   I would like to turn an external hard drive on a strong letter, warns we hope this previous problem.   My question is, if I already have a lot of pictures on this external hardrive with the designation of the current drive, how it becomes a higher letter and have 6 Lightroom recognizes files, now under the new designation of drive letter without having to go to each photo individually and manually force Lightroom 6 find each photo.  It would take more time than I'd like to lose.  Is there a way to get just 6 Lightroom to recognize the new disk designation has changed and is able to find all of the existing files?

  I have read the ADOBE LightRoom 6 manual and seem not to be able to find anything on how to do it.

  Any help would be welcome.

  Thank you!

  So in Windows, you can select a drive like q letter (or any other letter you want only towards the end of the alphabet)

  Then in Lightroom, you can reconnect to the photos on q: the following instructions (see specifically 4 Figure and related text)

  Which folder or file not hibernation process store open files or programs on the hard drive?

  Hello

  The Hiberfil.sys hidden system file is located in the folder root of the drive where the operating system is installed. The Windows Kernel Power Manager reserves this file when you install Windows. The size of this file is approximately equal to the amount of memory (RAM) is installed on the computer.

• Problem with 'open with' records not of programs on external hard drive

  Hi - I have several large programs installed on an external hard drive. Previously, there were no problems with the program and files associated with the other. My computer had to be rebuilt recently and all re-installed with the exception of those programs on the external hard drive. My files get recognized by windows - when I am asked to browse to find the program and I select this program from the ED - windows will not add to the 'open with' list of programs. I don't see what the problem is and a little lost. If anyone can help I'd be really grateful, as I have quite a few files that I have now correctly open questions.

  Thank you

  When you install a program, two things happen: the program get
  When you say let it go, and * pointers to many parameters and references
  It is set in the registry and elsewhere in \windows (there are
  an occasional exception, but usually only with a small single
  programs).
   
  Thus, when Windows has been reinstalled, all these many pointers, settings,.
  and references to it in the registry and elsewhere in \windows
  have been lost. Programs cannot operate without them.
   
  For this reason, separating \Windows and installed programs
  (especially on an external drive) is a bad thing to do.

• How can I transfer my whole photo folder and its contents on my external hard drive? And once there, when I upload new photos will automatically they on the external hard drive?

  I would like to set up my computer to save all my pictures on my external hard drive to free up memory.  So when I download new photos on my computer they will be sent directly to the external hard drive.  Also how can I send all my photos that I currently have on my computer to the external hard drive?

  ====================================
  You can copy and paste the files on your external hard drive.

  Right-click your folder of the image and choose copy...

  Right-click on the drive letter for your external hard
  drive and choose Paste.

  You can also right click on some files or folders and
  in the menu... Choose... Send to..., then select the
  Letter from the external hard drive.

  FWIW... the external hard disk file system
  must be NTFS if the files larger than 4 GB will be
  transferred.

• Problem with Lightroom and external hard drive. Files and folders deleted.

  In the classroom (8.1 windows computers) import us images that .dng files on an external hard drive using Lightroom.

  After the Lightroom, insert us the memory card containing photos and attach an external hard drive. (formatted to ntfs)

  We create a new catalog on the external hard drive and then create a folder as the destination for the images on the external drive as well.

  After passing to the newly formed catalog in Lightroom, we import the photos from the memory card to the external hard drive.

  Photos are present in the folder 'import' on the external hard drive after the end of the import, so checking with windows Explorer.

  After the closure of LR and disconnect the external hard drive of the computer, it appears that the newly created files and imported files have disappeared.

  We tested with an external hard drive in exfat. The same problem.

  There is no problem when you copy directly in Explorer windows of memory card files to the external drive.

  The files are not hidden. Tested on mac and windows.

  If you said that the photo files are on the external hard drive when you checked using Windows Explorer during the class? Is this correct? YES
  Then you go home and the files are not on the external hard drive? YES

  Well, it is a mystery, but there is no way that Lightroom can be the culprit.

  Is it the same for the catalog file, in class, he was present on the hard disk according to the Windows Explorer, and when you get home, is no longer on the drive? YES

  Same conclusions, it is not Lightroom.

• Problem with external hard drive 500 Gb Stor.e Steel

  Hello

  I ve bought a Store.e steel 500 GB external hard drive and I can't get large files (such as 4 GB) it wit. There is a message that says that the file is bigger that the system supports whenever I try to get a file of 4 GB, but I have 300 GB of free.
  What evil?
  Thank you

  I agree with user Stephen.
  The file format of HARD drive seems to be FAT32, you must format the HARD disk to NTFS to be able to manage files over 4 GB.

• External hard drive does not work. Is there another way I could solve the problem without formatting the external hard drive?

  My external hard drive works. I tried to plug and when I tried to open it, it says to format the drive until I could use it. Everything works well as when I plugged the USB icon shown on the screen. When I check the disk management, it showed that the partition of the drive is there.

  I tried to change the drive letters, but still having the same problem. I also tried to run the disk check on the command prompt and the properties of the drive, but it still can not because there is error popping up saying that the disk check cannot be performed because Windows cannot access the disk.

  Is there another way I could solve the problem without formatting the external hard drive?

  I tried the first step in troubleshooting the hard drive, but it gives a
  error in saying that "hardware changes might not have been detected.

  So I tried the second method, and when I click on the "Check now" button his
  gives an error saying that "the disk check cannot be performed because .
  Windows can not access the disk".".

  So is there any other way or option?

  Thank you

  HERE, WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME:

  I turn off the pc and I keep the hard drive is connected.

  I start windows. No problems so far.

  I open windows Documents, I want access to my hard drive, and first of all, she has another name, not the one I gave to her when I formatted, it (like two weeks there are other problems, but that's another story) and when I click on it an error message appears saying that my local drive has been damaged and cannot be opened and is necessary for formatting.

  I tried to unplug it after the shutdown of the PC (when the PC is on I can't unplug it because that always seem to be used, even if everything is closed) because I thought that during the start-up in somewhere so it might be confused with a drive of the computer, for three days, he stopped to do today after I plugged it again.

  I unplugged and plugged a different device, you see correctly, so I unplugged and re-connected to my PC, now we see normally.

  I'm ok with this, but I am aware that it is not normal behavior, what should I do?

  Thank you

  Since the watch test failed, the hard drive must be replaced. If it is under warranty, you can take it to the Toshiba service center to get it replaced. Another thing, the new hard drive is the recommended option.

  Before in both cases, make sure that you back up all of your important and personal data from the hard drive.

• Problem with external hard drive (an unexpected error - 50)

  I've had this problem for a few months now. Sometimes, I can't delete a file from my external hard drive, or export a file to it. The process is impossible, and I get a message "Cannot perform the action due to an unexpected error - 50". Ejecting the disc gives the message "eject impossible because another program can use it." Ejection force becomes the only option. After re-login, the problem goes away, like nothing ever happened.

  The question is not constant, but quite common to become a nuisance, the one I want stopped.

  That's what I think it is (a bad connection with the cable, defective contact), or is this a virus? I need to know.

  The hard drive is 1 TB Toshiba Canvio Basics and is formatted as Mac OS extended (Journalized).

  not a virus, and not only because there is no virus mac at this time.

  negative errors on the discs can be a signal indicating that the file is corrupted or worse still, the drive is failing. While it can also be a problem with the cable or the connector that it commonly goes back on the disc itself.

  Currently, it is recommended that you backup your data if a backup fails, you may need to save what you can manually and sometimes that means go to this folder by folder or file by file

  Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support

  All HARD drives (and SSD') eventually fail and while this isn't a your statement you should check the drive with disk utility (Macintosh HD/Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility) after you got what you possibly can off and consider replacing the disk with a new one.

• Cannot install the STOR. E ALU 2 external hard drive on Windows 8

  Hello

  I bought a Toshiba STOR. E ALU2 external hard drive for my laptop for girls that takes place in Windows 8.
  Device is recognized, can find manual, can see autorun and start icons, but opens in Notepad only and does not install everything again.

  Just seen it says windows 7 on the side of box - does this mean the product is unusable? (In which case it's a gift in the sewers of Christmas!)

  Anyone can help with this problem?
  Thank you very much

• What are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes game against external hard drive, Solid State etc. to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

  First question: what are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes Match against Solid State external hard drive etc to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

  Please let me know what are the alternatives for storage of my songs, playlists, song etc. other than iTunes game ratings ($ 24.99 / year)?  Is there a way to store all my songs with my song ratings, playlists, etc. with a CD song quality? Most of my (currently 130 GB) songs on my computer are CD quality that I prefer to keep as well as my notes of each song (i.e. 5 * vs. 4 * etc.), playlists, groups (music, classical, popular, country etc.).  What are the advantages and disadvantages to store my iTunes songs while CD quality with my personal notes, reading lists, groupings in the cloud?  ICloud of Apple Drive ($ 2.99 per month or $36 / year for 200 GB) would be the best way to automatically update and maintain my rankings iTunes personal including the future editions of the song etc or using Amazon, IBM, Microsoft etc cloud or an external hard drive SSD would work as well and maybe cheaper?  I currently have my iTunes on a PC of 2007 with vista (I use a 1 8T Western Digital external upward by car for my personal info all over HP, songs, photos etc. which is currently close to 170 GB) but also have an Apple i-phone 6 & I Air cushion.  Although I did not need to have all of my music with all their sides, etc. available on all of my devices at all times as iTunes game, I still would have easy access to information on both my PC and my iPhone or iPad?  Thank you.

  In my opinion?

  I back up my data to an external drive for several reasons.  The first is my data - if I put on the cloud, someone else has control over it, they can see what I have and change the preferences to what they see of marketing.

  Almost as important as that - if I had to rely on the cloud whenever I wanted to update my playlists on my phone, I need a better internet connection I have now (working at sea).  To get the best out of the cloud, you need a solid link to home, work or mobile.

  As a spin-off - I hate the fact that Apple take away a feature in their software updates and then allow an app to be sold in their store to replace this feature - or worse still, some features that were available before the updates are now "cloud only."  And Yes - you have to pay for the cloud.  I like most of the people do not appreciate the 'accomplished fact. "

  From the back of the external hard drive ASI downside, is that to be safe, you need to store outside in a separate computer place.  If keep you them together, if one is lost, probably, they are both.  That is to say for me a full backup before you travel, then a new upward as soon as I go home.  Downside is how much data may be lost between the two back ups if I needed to restore.  For me, its worth the risk.  If I was away and say had bought a ton of new music and couldn't go home anytime soon, I can always head to the store and buy a new external drive, they are massively expensive.  Even if my computer has to go for repair and my remote is to halfway around the world - I want to buy a new one.

  Now, some will say that once you buy a new external, you spend more than you would on a cloud subscription.  It's true, but in the 6 years following the purchase of Mac that I've only had to buy a new external once - so with a little luck and planning - it works.

  I left took well - I am not a subscriber of cloud, nor do I want to be.

• After a hard drive crash and recover most of my files on an external hard drive but who eventually became my only internal, because I live on an island in South America and there is virtually nobody on the island I live it can he

  After a hard drive crash and recover most of my files on an external hard drive which eventually became my only internal, but because I live on an island in South America and there's hardly anyone on the island I live who can help other that a friend, I took a trip to Miami to visit the genius bar and they did a new install of Capitan which I don't really like by the way.  In any case, I though I had lost all my iPhoto library, but I managed to find my photos. Only now I have two libraries... the iPhoto with images from my Photos on Capitan and 8 years.  Is it possible to consolidate them in a library?  And can I still use RAW to be able to edit photos? aIso, y at - it a tutorial for the Photos?

  In the future more facts and less editorial help here

  SO now, we know all about how you feel but nothing on your system or your problem

  What version of El Captain do you have (10.11.3 is the current version with Photos 1.3)

  You cannot merge libraries without third party software - Photos of power can merge pictures libraries

  You can migrate iPhoto libraries to libraries of Photos by dragging Photos icon in the Dock

  When you first launched the Photos it has migrated the last used for Photos iPhoto library

  I hope this will help, but to get specific answers, you need to provide real information and not feelings
