Is there a way I can back up my entire iMac G5 on a USB key (with the exception of the system files)

I have an old imac running 10.4.11 G5 ppc and I want to get rid of it, but I want everything except the system files and crap that I don't need the backup. I want beck it upwards on a disc of void

You should be able to create a backup on the disk USB 2.0 to your content

a former Mac PPC; the files could be read by applications or made

be opened by apps later (or those who converted to the future, if possible.)

The limits for rotational USB or USB flash drives were related

the inability of the OS X to start the old Macs for these drives. The

the files themselves should be OK to be read from said readers.

You may be sure choose "ignore permissions" as appropriate

on the drives where the old user accounts can stifle access to their content. Or

create a duplicate of the old files on a different drive, convert the need

for a more recent application. You can make a duplicate of the old together

drive with a clone utility. SuperDuper, double or utility disk peut

do large duplicates. Disk utility can make a disk image. Other applications

could be tempted to see if you could save-as or convert a newer version.

Good luck!

    The quick solution is to click on the folder that contains the missing files and choose "update folder location" and then search for the file on the USB drive. The longer term and fix, you must apply is to configure Windows to always give the same drive letter USB. You can do this through the XP disk management application in the management of the computer (the control panel applet). The following screenshot is for XP and Vista and Win 7 will be something similar which is accessed via the administrative tools (see second screenshot).

    I just got an iPhone 6 and when I plugged in my laptop, he asked if I wanted to restore my new phone. I said yes! But unfortunately chose the wrong backup restore with. Is there a way I can go back to how my phone was before?

    Yes, you can as long as you understand that you will lose everything that is currently on the phone.

    (1) settings > General > reset > erase content and settings

    That will make the iPhone as new.  Then, during the installation process it again once will ask you if you want to restore from an existing backup.  You can then restore the scheduled backup.

  • If I accidentally deleted everything that was in my trash, is there a way I can get it back?

    original title: trash

    "Deleting" a file does not actually delete it marks just the space
    also available to be used. There are third-party programs that can
    sometimes recover deleted files. The problem is that the space used by
    the file is likely to be replaced very quickly, and it makes
    the unrecoverable file.

    So your chances of successfully recover this file are decent if you
    Try it again immediately after the deletion of it and go quickly
    downhill from there. If you have used the computer since then (for
    example to write this question and read this answer), your chances may
    be very poor now.

    But if the file is large enough, it's still worth a try. Stop
    using the computer in question immediately, if you have not done
    already. Download an undelete program (and here's one:)
    http://www3.TELUS.NET/mikebike/restoration.html but there are several
    others to choose from; Do a search) on a friend's computer and bring
    it to you on a floppy disk, CD or USB to try.

    If that fails, your only recourse is to bring or send the disc
    a company of professional file recovery. This kind of service is very
    expensive and may or may not work in your case.

    Maria

    Operating system device provided are "released" by specific carriers once that they are certified and trained to their support technicians, but still, you are able to load any carrier the same model by following the instructions below.

    See the link below to download it and follow these simple instructions.

    Start by searching for your carrier or any other which has the OS 5 of file that you want to use.
    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    Make a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > backup. Close the office at the end Manager.

    1. download the OS files to the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.
    2. go in c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    3. plug in the BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

  • Is there a way I can recover my Outlook Express email. I hate Windows live mail and want to come back to Outlook Express. I have Windows 7.

    Is there a way I can recover my Outlook Express e-mail account.  I downloaded Windows Live Mail and don't like it at all.  I can't understand how to add a new contact.

    You post in a forum of Vista and Outlook Express last used in XP. If you mean Vista Windows Mail, unless you have removed the account, just open the program and use it. You can remove WLMail whenever you want. It is a part of the programs in the window Live Essentials Control Panel uninstall section.

  • After auto-update today I stupidly agreed to return to its default state of Firefox. Is there a way I can undo this? (I lost all my sites speed dial).

    After installation auto-implementation to date this morning a dialog box appears asking you if I want to go back to its default state of Firefox. I foolishly said yes and now I lost all my Speed Dial, URLs and passwords registered thumbnails. Is there any way I can cancel it to go back to the way Firefox has been implemented and work yesterday?

    No, no, unless you have backed up your Firefox profile to restore the default state.

  • Is there a way to bring back the "Open a new tab" option by right clicking on the tab?

    I just upgraded to the latest version of Firefox (6.0). Yesterday he informed that an upgrade to Firefox 5. (something) was available and asked if I wanted to spend. I went for it. However, I had not used since then until today. Now when I opened it today it asked me if I wanted to upgrade to version 6.0. Without hesitation, I went for him also.

    Although this version is pretty, it's a little weird to use. Previously, whenever I tried to open a new tab, I right click on one of the tabs (current tab or another tab) and after a right-click, he had the opportunity to open a new tab , as well as a few other options. Now there is no option. There is the button to open a new tab, but what happens if I want to open a link in a new tab by clicking right on it? Even the option to open in a new window is also absent.

    Is there a way to bring back these settings/options previous tab? If so, how?

    PS in my bookmarks bar, when I click on a bookmark icon, it has the same options/settings as he had previously in the last version I used (last version I used was 3.something; while I had updated to version 5 something I had not used except to open the browser when it asked me to upgrade to version 6.0). Options on the right by clicking the bookmark icon are:
    Open
    Open in a new tab
    Open in a new window
    New bookmark...
    New folder...
    New separator
    Cup
    Copy
    Dough
    Delete
    Properties

    I would also like to mention here that I know shortcut keys; so please don't waste your time trying to help me in this way. Thank you.

    # The tab bar is a regular toolbar in recent versions of Firefox, so you get the normal of a toolbar context menu if you right-click the tab bar.

    You can double-click an empty space on the tab bar to open a new tab if you do not want to use the new tab button.

    You can drag a link on the new tab button to open this link in a new tab.

    You can also drag the new button tab on another toolbar, if you'd better like that.

    Open the Customize via "view > toolbars > customize" or "Firefox > Options > toolbars."

  • Hi my iPad off, then I lost all my photo son is there a way I can restore it? Thank you

    HI my iPad is disab then I lost all the photos of my son is there a way I can restore it please? Thank you

    If you have never backed up your iPad in iTunes (or iPhoto/Photos on a Mac) on your computer, or iCloud or some other cloud (out of service) service or on some sort of USB key or drive hard wireless designed for iDevices, so your images are gone and you can't extract your photos.

    Mobile device users forget they are mobile, devices computer and more prone to problems/failures of devices with random data loss and do not have a strategy for storage/recording of data to other sources or sites in order to protect their valuable data on their mobile devices.

    Mobile electronic devices aren't as strong and as stable as the most modern computer hardware, like a laptop or desktop.

    All data important like the pictures and any remarks important and documents should not be long term stored on a mobile computing device such as a smartphone or a Tablet and must be saved in the long term location a real computer with more than one hard drive for backup or store these data on multiple devices or multiple storage media devices.

    Significant data redundancy is key if a peripheral device or mobile storage goes down or something happens to the data.

    It is a very sad but strong lesson learned for you and any other person who finds and reads this message.

    I'm sorry.

  • Hack attempt? I is there a way I can tell what is happening?

    If someone tried to access my account to try a bunch of passwords, or possibly changing the password:

    (1) is there a way I can tell what is happening and

    2) trace to their computer or this person?

    (3) I see which passwords they were trying?

    Thank you!

    Why do you think that what is happening?  Do you receive messages or anything like that?  You see in your accounts of e-mail or online activity that does not belong to you?

    Here is how to monitor events of access (even if she does not allow her back or see which passwords they used):http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Monitor-attempts-to-access-and-change-settings-on-your-computer.

    If you determiine attempts were made, contact your ISP, and they may be able to trace the location (although you may need the police involved to get them to do).

    I don't know any way to identify the passwords they were trying (unless the ISP can provide this information).

    You must also report it to the authorities (the police) so they can try to track down those criminals who cause damage even more before all is said and done.

    You can also report it to the internet crime complaint center if necessary
