Lightroom CC backup on external hard drive Seagate

My Seagate hard drive is perfectly functional, make backups of several programs, including CClone, Joelle, and Time Machine.

Yet when I recently tried to backup a catalog from Lightroom CC, I get the following error message.


"Lightroom is unable to create a folder for your exports in the location you have chosen. Please select a different location. »


Lightroom has no problem backup up to my 2 TB Lacie external hard drives.


I use a Mac Pro with the latest version of the OS


Can you guide me through this?

This is the location you have chosen, IE the folder on the drive. Create a new folder on this drive called Lightroom backups and LR point in this folder to make its backups to. In Finder Right click on the new folder that you created and make sure that your username has both read + write permission.

Also, it's a bad idea to have a single drive for Time Machine and store other files on this disc. Time Machine should have it own dedicated player to do back ups for that is not used for anything else.

  • 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.

    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

  • Backup on external hard drive problems...

    I can't backup to external hard drive, it starts and does not say "Device not ready" then I tried to back up my laptop outside even hard without any problem. Could it be, if I tried a different USB port on my desktop external hard disk... Any other ideas please...

    Concerning

    Have you tried another USB port (your post is unclear)?

    The external hard drive has its own power supply or just connect with a USB cable?  If there is no separate power supply, disconnect all other USB devices (except keyboard and mouse) and see if that helps.

    The external drive shows in my computer?  If so, what happens when you double-click it?

    Don't show external drive in disk management (start > run > diskmgmt.msc > OK)?  If so, a drive letter is assigned? If so, what is reported to the layout, Type, file system and status?

    Only the external drive shows in Device Manager (start > run > devmgmt.msc > OK) to the title of "hard disks"?  If Yes, what is displayed when you double-click on and look at 'Device status' and 'Use of the device' in the general tab?

  • External hard drive Seagate

    Since the upgrade to Sierra, my Macbook will not recognize when my external 4 TB of Seagate hard drive is connected (no problems before the upgrade).  Another problem is that when I click on the Finder icon in the tray, opens a finder window, then whole screen turns black momentarily, then returns to the top with all the icons, but the finder window is now gone.

  • How to partition an external hard drive Seagate

    My old external HD Time Machine does not so I bought a 2 TB Seagate Backup more Portable Drive to replace it. It has been formatted for Windows but provided a configuration "NTFS_ Mac download for_ I ran. I'd like to partition the drive & use 1 TB for Time Machine.

    When I go into disk utility, I cannot and select the Seagate HD, the choice of the Partition is grey and not selectable.

    Any suggestion how to get this HD formatted correctly so that it is recognized in disk utility?

    I guess that the external hard drive is formatted NTFS, so disk utility does not have to perform all the tasks in this topic. It you can't format it on some Windows system with the FAT file system? Once the FAT is made, the Mac of THE it reformats with HFS. However if you want to do with the above partition size (1 TB HFS and 1 TB NTFS or FAT) then can try you with a disk management utility.

  • How to restore my backup on external hard drive system

    I did a windows image backup of my Vista system on a Seagate external hard drive. Now I want to restore my system from the backup, but restore in control panel procedures does not recognize the files. Version of Vista professional, Service Pack 2. I tried Virtual PC, and vhd mounting procedures.

    Hello

    read this tutorial on how to do

    To restore a full backup of the computer, you must proceed within the Windows recovery environment. To access the Windows recovery environment, you will need to insert your Vista DVD in the DVD drive on your computer and turn on your computer. The computer starts and you see the BIOS lists the hardware on your computer, and other information. When this information has been disabled, your computer will see that a bootable DVD is inserted and present a prompt similar to the Figure 1 below.

  • Backup to external hard drive on iCloud > > used internal hard disk space

    Is there a way to backup disks external hard on iCloud without iCloud with disk space hard internal iMac?

    I tried an external hard drive to backup to iCloud and although it does not copy in iCloud. It also eliminates the same amount of available space on the hard drive of my iMac.

    Does this mean that iCloud only backs up files on an internal drive so it copies them from external drives to the internal main? Is this a problem external disk hard/iCloud? Is it possible to set this up properly?

    The files are logical X. This could be a logic X / question iCloud? I know the hype for iCloud said any file, but no logic X icon in the system preferences iCloud box. Set to true any file ?

    Thanks for any information you have.

    Data in iCloud cannot synchronize from an external hard drive.

  • backup to external hard drive, removal of the movies on computer?

    I want to know if I got back to the top of my itunes library on an external hard drive I can remove my itunes on my computer movies to save space on this subject? It is my friends computer and I don't want to take up space. And then I still see them on my apple TV if the movies are not on my internal hard drive?

    I am new to this and I wanted to know if my apple tv can stream after I deleted movies from my computer? I have no idea how it works, as far as I know I need to get back to the top of my purchases...

    Backup and deletion are not back up. Backup is always to have two copies of everything, preferably on completely separate players in different locations.

    In order to play something through iTunes, it must be added to iTunes.  You can add files from a separate iTunes drive and make them stay on the player by holding down the option key while adding, but there may be painful to see broken links if the drive is not attached when using iTunes constantly.

    You can listen to an AppleTV iCloud films apparently, but I can't provide details.  This should work for you, unless it's one of those elements is no longer in the Apple Store (and your reason to always make sure that you have a copy on your hard disks).
