• How can I change the permissions for an external hard drive?

  Hi, I have a little problem... I used an external hard drive on my pc windows 10 and now I try to copy my files on my iMac, but the thing is I can't delete my files from my hard drive because I can only read them. So I want to change the permissions, but I do not know how... Can someone help me with this please?

  Thank you for your time.

  This means generally that the volume is formatted to NTFS, at which case it must be reformatted or software such as Paragon NTFS installed on the Mac.

  In case this happens to a FAT32, exFAT or volume Mac OS extended, either the volume's directory structure is damaged, it is locked in the material or the player has felt that it is about to fail.

• How can I change the permission of my external hard drive from tours and write "without formatting?

  My Toshiba external hard disk format was automatically replaced Windows NTFS after I had plugged on a Windows PC. Therefore, the permissions of the drive changed to 'read only' to "read and write" after that I used on my Mac. It happened once before and I remember the engineer on duty in an apple authorized service center had solved the problem without format the external hard drive. This is not an option for me now as well, but all the solutions, I looked to say online that the formatting of the disc is the first step. Help, please!

  Install software such as Paragon NTFS on the Mac.

  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

• How to reset the password forgotten on external HARD drive

  Hello

  I forgot the password of my external hard drive.
  How can I reset this?

  It has all my photos out there I want to come back.

  The external HARD drive comes with software that the password. Have you used this software?

  I m not very well what HARD drive you have exactly, but in the case of the password disk HARD unknown could be deleted, so I guess that by using such software.

  But I'm afraid, this is not possible and if yes, then secure files could serve more than m.

  I say it in a different way: password protection would be useless if you can remove any unknown or forgotten password. Don't you think?

• Restore the backup to an external hard drive

  original title: if I reinstall my Vista, how to make the backup on an external hard drive? Is it a procedure drag-and - déposer? I use a Seagate external hard drive and there is no help section.

  Have run the back up to the external hard drive, I would like to know how to use it when I reinstall Vista Home Premium system.

  Also, I tried to check the hard disk for errors, and he has not finished the event.

  Assuming that you used the backup of Vista and made program a full backup and not an image backup (although some of these procedures include the restoration of a full image backup), here is some information to help you restore data.  Try to read or at least most of the analytical documents before you start, so you get a good understanding of the process and the procedures involved.  Restoring from an external hard drive is a little different from restoring a secondary internal hard drive, CD/DVD or Flash drive or on the network (although quite close to the procedure of network). If you have used the Vista backup program, you can not restore using drag-and-drop - you must use Vista restore program.

  Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

  This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.  It also focuses primarily on the full backup process, but he did mention the full backup and restore process as well.

  Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work):http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

  Back up and restore: frequently asked questions
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-and-restore-frequently-asked-questions

  I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

  1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

  2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

  3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

  4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

  5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

  6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

  7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

  8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

  9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

  10. and you press "next".

  11 guess what... no error!

  12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

  13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

  14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

  I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works and even when it does not).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now want to import some RAF b HD files

  I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now have to import some RAF of the HD files but LR shows them as dazed out and said that they have already been imported when I hover over the thumbnail. I have this problem when importing files in the same HD Canon CR2, and who have been treated exactly the same. Anyone got a clue as to why this is happening? Thanks, Phil

  Hi Phil,

  If Lightroom then reads these as duplicate files, it shows that they are already present in your Lightroom Catalog.

  You can search by file name and check if the image is present in your library.

  Kind regards

• Refusal of the WORKSTATION to access external hard drive window

  Hello

  I can't access an external hard drive (WD My Book Home Edition). The problem happened when I disconnected my external drive from my Win XP Pro computer and plugged into another Win XP Home computer that had another WD external drive attached to it. Both my drive ext as wel as the other disk ext became inaccessible. I disconnected my 2nd computer ext drive and connected to computer Win XP pro that I always use. However even though my computer recognizes the drive I have noticed that the icon WD changed to a regular folder icon and whenever I try to open it, it says drive H is inaccessible. I also noticed that the folder icon was the same as the 2nd ext drive connected to the computer Win XP Home. I tried the microsoft bulletin:
  "This article describes how to capture a file or folder to which you are denied.
  I décliqués the "simplified" sharing and set permissions on a shared folder. "" After that it gives information about the ownership of the folder as follows:
  To take ownership of a folder, follow these steps: right - click the folder you want to take control and then click Properties.
  1. Click on the Security tab, and then click OK in the security message (if one appears).
  2. Click Advanced, and then click the owner tab.
  3. In the name list, click on your user name , or click on administrator , if you are logged in as administrator, or click the Administrators group. If you want to take ownership of the contents of the folder, select the check box Replace owner of subcontainers and objects.
  4. Click OKand then click Yes when you receive the following message is displayed:
     You are not allowed to read the contents of the directory folder name . Do you want to replace the the directory permissions with permissions granting you full control?

     All permissions will be replaced if you click Yes.

     Note folder name is the name of the folder you want to take charge.

  5. Click OK, and then reapply the permissions and security settings that you want for the folder and its contents.

  I can not follow these directions as I do not have a visible security tab. I was able to save things to my ext drive but cannot access it from the my computer window. I am therefore able to see the contents of the disc in the 'SAVE AS' window. Given that I'm not very good at the computer stuff can someone give me step by step instructions on how to access my drive hard Ext. window "WORKSTATION". Thank you in advance.

• RAW files missing changes after moving to an external hard drive

  Hi, I use lightroom 4 and I cleaned a part of my images on my laptop and then exported in JPEG files. My hard drive has started to fill up, so I moved all my files on raw on an external hard drive but now when I come back to make adjustments to these images it tells me that the file is missing. How the raw return file so that it shows the changes I made?

  The changes should have been stored in the catalog file or in an XMP Sidecar file. Also moved the XMP Sidecar files. These XMP files can be marked as system files in OS X, and unless you have show system files (which, with OS X for that option and turn it you may need to use Terminal), and or display all files, Finder can hide on your part.
