• problems with a Toshiba USB external hard drive?

  Hello.

  I have a Toshiba external HD, USB, formatted in FAT 32 connection and I wanted to use it with my MacBook (Mac OS 10.11.3).

  This Toshiba HD just don't climbs on the desk or the show up in disk utility.

  Anyone has the same problem?

  Is there something to do?

  Thank you.

  I have a Toshiba of 3 laptop USB works fine. Typical things to try are:

  1. Restart the computer
  2. Launch disk utility and see if it appears. It cannot be mounted and requires a repair
  3. Reset the SMC reset management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support
  4. Connect the drive directly to the computer instead of the hub
  5. Try a different cable

  And if none of these works, try to connect to another computer to see if it works elsewhere.

• Error reading from disk on startup, but no problem when I remove my external hard drive from Seagate. Solution?

  At startup, windows does not load and, I don't see a black screen says Disk Read Error press Ctrl Alt Del to restart. Upon restart, the same problem occurs. I managed to work around this problem by unplugging all my external hard drives USB, but this problem has never happened before.

  Recently, I laid out my laptop due to a faulty internal hard drive. Windows has been reformatted and a new internal hard drive has been installed. Since then, the above mentioned error occurred and I'm not too sure if those problems are linked, but my Seagate hard drive works fine until I fix it after windows has marketing. Yet once, it never happened before that my laptop has been repaired.

  Appreciate your help.

  Thank you

• the iTunes folder copy of office on external hard drive

  I'm trying to back up my iTunes music on an external hard drive folder.  Whenever I try to drag the file to another drive, I get an error stating that "the operation cannot be performed because you do not have permission to access the .iTunes Preferences.plist.  I also have problems backing up my iPhone and iPad because I get an error indicating that there is a problem with the purchased content.

  By some other posts, I tried to remove the .itunes Preferences.plist file, reboot, restart iTunes and try to copy again - I still get the same message.  I tried different external drives without success.  All discs are in Mac OS extended (journaled) format.  I'm running OS X 10.10.5 on a Mid MacPro 2010 that contains 4 HDDs and using iTunes 12.3.3.17.

• Error message with (PX1394E - 3 50) external HARD drive

  I have a 500 GB external hard drive, Code: PX1394E - 3 50.

  I work perfectly until now that I have a bug in Windows XP that says "has exceeded the capacity of the hub port", although blue light turns on the hard drive and leave the mistake of putting the USB hard drive to the computer. I've tried different USB ports and well past, I tested these USB ports with other devices and whether they work, the USB ports are 2.0 and Windows XP SP3.

  HM, I recommend you to send the drive to an authorized service provider because it sounds like a hardware problem. Maybe the controller in the external hard drive has certain shortcomings.

• What is an I / Q error? This occurs with the backups using external hard drive SeaGate

  We have two external hard drives; a 3Terabyte (don't know how it) Seagate and another whose name escapes me. On the Seagate, I get the message: backup did not complete due to I / Q error. What is I / Q error and how to fix this? If all goes well, not a complicated process.

  Thanks for any help. Hope I selected the areas to fix this, below.

  Fred, SR.

  Win7 64 bit, Office 2010

  Hello

  I assumed that by I / Q error you mean error e/s? Run chkdsk on the drive Seagate:

  Start > Search bar > type cmd right click and select run as administrator

  High CMD should now be open, type the following:

  CHKDSK x: /r

  x involves the reader of your letter, so if your hard drive in question is the letter c, it would be:

  CHKDSK c: /r

  Restart the system and allow to run chkdsk.

  Kind regards

• Can I use CC with pictures on an external hard drive?

  I bought Adobe CC and my images are just now in the photos on a Mac. I've never used photo (used opening), but when the upgrade to Yosemite to El Capitan Aperture was more consistent. I have a lot of images, I should Adobe CC a link to the images that I copy on an external hard drive or keep them on the Mac. Totally confused.

  You can put your photos in any folder... just you know that you can "confuse" the program if you disconnect the external hard drive

• Transfer the library to new MBP of old MBP with music on an external hard drive

  I bought a new MBP a few months ago and have not had time to properly set up immediately. I finally get to it and have met some problems with my iTunes library transfer and re-use of my music files on an existing external drive. I always kept my music files on a separate drive in order to keep the laptop drive as empty as possible for other tasks.

  News old MBP:

  OS x 10.6.8

  iTunes 11.4

  Library was on the hard drive of the MBP

  Music files were on an external drive, called 'LACIE_MINI '.

  New Intel MBP:

  10.10.5 OSX

  iTunes 12.3.2.35

  I copied the old iTunes library to the same location on the new MBP and he watched the iTunes. Load library very well however, even if the LACIE_MINI drive is connected to the laptop, the files cannot be located in iTunes. When looking for the location of the file under 'Get Info', it points to the correct place (file://localhost/Volumes/LACIE MINI/music //) but it won't "find" and play the audio file.

  To make things a touch more confusing to me, I bought a WD MyCloud NAS with the intention that she be host store all my files music and video. My goal was to eliminate the need to always have my external plugged in when you work with iTunes. I don't know what is the reliability of this facility would be.

  From there, I have a few questions:

  1 when your stay with my files on my external and do not use the SIN, how I have it properly locate all the music files?

  2. who is the most reliable way to access my music? Through the plugged in external or NAS?

  3. should I do to keep my music on my external and load from there or make use of the NAS?

  Thank you

  I copied the old iTunes library to the same location on the new MBP

  You copied into the folder full of the record of the music user account from the old Mac to the same location on the new Mac iTunes ?

  I noticed that the external drive is named LACIE_MINI on old Mac.  The new Mac, in the path of the song file, he says LACIE MINI with no underscore between the words.  Is it a typing mistake in your post or the real difference?

  For your other questions, a directly connected external drive is more reliable and faster, as the location of your iTunes media files.

• Windows does not load on a Satellite A350 with 500 GB Seagate external HARD drive

  There is a problem with this laptop, A350-043 running Vista Edition Windows Home Premium 64 bit, part number: PSAL6C - 04S 015

  In other words: when it is connected to a 9NK2AL-510 SEAGATE 500 GB SATA DRIVE EXTERNAL USB (s/n: 5QG1YH1E) Windows will not load, it will up to and gel just before the green movement of the bar. If the USB cable is released and handed over in a second, Windows continues to load normally and all is well.

  Otherwise, the operating system will have up to 15 minutes to load. Looking in the BIOS features, there is no option to boot from USB available, so it can not be disabled. I have updated the BIOS of Toshiba to the latest version without any change in this issue.

  I tested and confirmed that the problem persists no matter what USB port is used.
  The external drive is fully functional, and there is no error or problems with it loading Windows. I reported this problem to Seagate so that Toshiba in the hope that a solution can be offered on this, but has not heard back on anything either yet.

  Do you mean that the laptop needs 15 minutes to load the Windows operating system, even if the external HARD disk is not connected?
  It sounds weird, and I doubt that this can be related to any software problem

  First of all, you should check the boot order in the BIOS the USB should be set at the last or last position.
  Second, you should check if the same problem persists even after a fresh install of the OS in some cases, that the start-up procedure could be affected due to the process software and installed background.

  But if the new installation of the operating system is not enough and if the issue persists then I guess a hardware problem (motherboard?) could be the reason for that and, therefore, a technician of the laptop must be contacted!

  That s in my opinion

• Satellite P300D - problem with reboot after update the HARD drive

  Hello

  I have laptop Satellite P300D - 12 c and recently, I put a new hard drive, the Seagate momentus 7200 RPM 2.5 "500 GB. It works well, but I have a strange problem; normally when I reboot the laptop when it will close something sounds, in the figurative sense I could say "something moves" for a bit in the DVD - ROM drive and shuts down and then restarts.

  Now, when the reboot happens to the part of the dvd - rom drive, I described above it stucks there... "something is happening" on the dvd - rom drive as trying to permanently access a dvd or something and he does the same thing until I force it to shut down by pressing the appropriate button. It happens once in two attempts to restart.

  Does anyone have a solution or a tip or something? If you do not understand something to tell me,

  Thank you very much

  Hello!

  I agree with Akuma. Maybe the drive is loose and so you should try re-allocation of places there.
  Maybe it works

  And updated the BIOS, you can find the Toshiba site:

  Good luck and give us feedback! :)

• The urge to Ultrabook 6 problem with recovery after failure of hard drive (out of warranty)

  Hello

  Please can someone tell me if it is true that to use HP factory recovery disks, hardware must be exactly the same as when purchased.

  After hours wasted trying to get the recovery disks to work, I find myself with the same "failed to retrieve @ screen and some unnecessary lines of code."

  In reading the various posts, it seems that I have a replacement for HP HARD drive of the same type that came with the computer. If this is the case, then the links on the support pages should say this before I have pay £39 for a set of disks.

  For me, a hard drive is a hard drive. I replaced a drive fried (1 month out of warranty expires) with a good brand replacement, but larger. Disks won't load.

  However, I could load W7 form an iso file and get that to work. I need the recovery because I do not know how to configure raid which allows the QuickStart on this laptop, and I don't have the time or no further inclination to make it work.

  Partly a rant, sorry, but I'm wrong, and is there a solution?

  Concerning

  I have seen others with this problem. Unfortunately, the only working solution, I remember the top was where a guy removed the player cache Msata, ran recovery then reinstalled.

  On a single charge of Win 7 I think you could install the Intel Quick Start software, then use it to activate the quick start. I have more a laptop Win 7 with Msata to test, but I remember the software could be opened from the icon beside the system clock and used to toggle the quick start.

• Problem with installing Windows on a hard drive, HARD drive does not get detected after installation

  Original title: help with hard drive of the computer.

  Flow of the problem:

  My aunt tried to install windows 7 on the previous copy of windows 8. Needless to say that it doesn't work and it has messed up the hard drive. So, I bought a vacuum. I formatted the hard drive using my other windows computer to have 2 partitions: a boot partition and system partition, and then used the program WinToUSB to install windows on the hard disk. The reason I did it is, because no matter how many times I changed the BIOS in my laptop of aunts, it wouldn't boot from the DVD player to load the windows software. After a few hours, I found WinToUSB. Once windows has been installed, I plugged it into the laptop. For a few hours, I didn't know what to do, because the computer does not recognize the hard drive (he said: "Not detected"). I decided to start from legacy, and then the screen deals

  «intell...» »

  and a bunch of dates, etc all the stuff on the screen to load legacy if you know what I mean.

  He said "not plugged in the media. Check the power cord.

  Then quickly changed screen before I can read almost anything and it goes to the normal windows screen black (with 4 colors). I said to myself, how can he be loading if the hard drive is not detected... Once it is loaded, he brought me to the blue screen (blue screen of death, if you want) I turned the computer on again, always noticing the hard drive was not detected. I ran all the recovery/repair options I could and turned off the laptop. I came back a few hours ago and I loaded the computer again and went into the BIOS.  He said that the hard drive has been detected and said the news about this, as usual. However, at the start of the legacy of windows loading screen, it said still not detected.  I then started to windows to see since it is now detected if that fixes the blue screen. Yet, there is no. I tried to go to the normal windows and screen remains blue. any ideas?

  Hello Chris,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

  According to the description, it seems that Windows was not properly installed on the hard drive. I'm not sure how to work the software from third-party manufacturers WinToUSB and reliable installation process is. Microsoft does not recommend using any third party tool to install Windows on your computer, the use of these third-party tools can cause serious damage to your computer.

  I would say to format the hard drive once more and try to install Windows through normal Windows installation process.

  Refer to the section "using the installation option custom if no operating system is installed" in the thread below.

  Installing and reinstalling Windows

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/installing-reinstalling-Windows#1TC=Windows-7

  If you are not able to install Windows on the hard drive at all, I suggest you to contact the hard drive manufacturer to obtain a diagnosis of material performed on the hard drive.

  Do not hesitate to write back for any further assistance with Windows, we will be happy to help you.

• Problem with activation by using two hard drives (XP on one) and Win7 on the other

  I have XP sp3 installed on a hard drive and Win7 on another. I never use XP, I only keep there to keep my Win7 works great.

  I do not remember how did I installed win7, but I pretty sure I booted from a USB key and installed on a new hard drive.

  It seems that XP hard drive is in charge the boot settings, or something because I have set as the boot default HDD (in bios), and then select Windows 7 in boot menu that follows.

  If I select the hard disks Windows 7 the default boot hard drive, Windows restores activation. Select the hard drive with XP and win7 then choosing in the start menu, works very well, the activation is OK again.

  I'll install Win8 (that I already bought), but I still need to figure out what to do with this situation, because I need to replace the hard drive where XP is installed and install Win8 and have a double Win7 and boot 8.

  It is possible to solve the problem of activation, without having me call Microsoft? I use a utility called EasyBCD 2.2 and I was wondering if maybe this program could help fix me.

  Any thoughts?
  Wilfredo.

  Disconnect the drive xp, fix the win7 installation and activate if necessary
