  Hello

  Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

  Thank you for details on the issue.

  You can restore backed up files lost, damaged, or accidentally modified versions. You also to restore files individual, groups of files, or all files that you have saved.

  If you are restoring files from a backup that was made on another computer, the files are restored in a folder under the user name that was used to create the backup. If the user names are different, you must navigate to the folder where the files are restored.

  I suggest you use the steps in this article and check if it helps.

• Unable to format hard drive for Windows

  Hello, I need your help here! You receive the same error message saying: "Windows is unable to complete the format" when you try to format an external hard drive on your computer? Honestly, the hard drive of my dell computer recently asked just to get in shape when it has been used on my Windows 7 computer. However, when I click on Yes to format this drive with my lost player documents and files, windows says just windows could not complete for formatting? Honestly, I used Google to search for the error problems related unable to complete the format windows and also asks me to select a formatting program? What you recommend me? This software is useful for my case? Thanks for any suggestions here!

• Update the graphic driver for Windows 8.1 Vaio Pro

  When can we expect an update of the graphics driver for Windows 8.1 on the Vaio Pro?

  It is the site of Intel Web here:

  https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?AGR=Y&DwnldID=23639

  I can not use connect an external display to the superior to 1184 x 666: after many conversations with Sony on the phone, it seems that this driver is supposed to solve my problems, but it's still not available via the updates from Sony.

  What is the deadline for this driver?

  In addition, if there is an alternative solution, I would be very happy to know!

Just a quick note, please do backup all the files first and possible please create recovery disks for your unit before update you the driver using the download link. I hope this helps!  Thanks again and have a wonderful day!

• What is the best solution when my external drive for Time Machine is full?

  Hello

  I use the latest version of Mac OS X on my iMac 27 ". I use a drive outside of 3 TB G-Tech for Time Machine backup. Due to my recently many RAW photo images, I have less 8% left storage on my external hard drive, so I'm trying to figure out next steps in what concerns the strategy of external storage and have the following questions:

  • When my external drive for Time Machine is full, it is my understanding that older backups on external hard drive will be deleted to make room for newer backups. If the oldest backups contained pictures (whose records have not changed since the time they are initially stored), then I guess that these photos will be removed from the external drive - correct?
  • If I had to replace my external drive for Time Machine with a new external drive which is as big or bigger than the one it replaces, what should I expect on the size of the initial backup on the new drive? I guess the size of the backup would be exactly equal to the current amount of storage used on my drive hard iMac - correct?
  • Would it not be possible to connect the external drive for Time Machine existing at a new Time Machine external drive so that when the original disk is full, the overflow will be automatically stored on the new external hard drive for Time Machine? (If feasible, it seems that this strategy would maximize my external storage capacity vs just replace external drives.)

  I realize that my first two questions are rather basic, but I don't want to make any false assumptions. The third idea is intriguing and I would like to know if this is a viable option.

  Thank you

  Brian

  older files are starting to get deleted because the disk fills up then Yes, they went

  the backup drive should ideally be 4 times the capacity of your current drive, twice is good but has its limits. Also factor in what you store: a jpeg from the web and a raw photo file are the two images, the size of a is very different. If you work in high-resolution or large native files, or audio files (record pro, no music files) or video production twice the disk fills up very quickly. If you collect photos and JPEG and mp3 files or a handful of videos not so much is necessary.

  I would keep the old drive intact if you want to replace and start over with a new drive, if that's the plan. You have the old data, you can keep it somewhere safe and have a redundant backup which you can reconnect at any time to restore from. Let the new index drive itself with new data and take if from there, in the case otherwise you can copy the backup to the new drive and set the drive as the new source of backup but personally I wouldn't copy of the data, that's my preference, it may not be yours and that's fine.

• Should what format I use for my external drive for time machine?  I have a WD 2 TB that is formatted for PC new drive.

  Should what format I use for my external drive for time machine?  I have a WD 2 TB that is formatted for PC new drive.  When I got to disk utilities to erase, and then reformat the options are

  1 mac OS extended (journaled)

  2 mac OS extended (journaled, encrypted)

  3 mac OS Extended (respect for case-sensitive, journaled)

  4 mac OS extended (case-sensitive, journaled, encrypted)

  See the information below If you can not back up or restore your Mac with the help of Time Machine - Apple Support

  When you select a drive to use with Time Machine, your Mac automatically prompts you if you need to reformat the drive.

  • If you are using an external drive connected to your Mac, use disk utility to make sure that your backup disk is formatted in HFS + extended (journaled) and is the partition type GUID Partition Table (GPT).
  • If you use a time Capsule, formatting the drive for Time Machine preferences automatically formats the drive as HFS + Extended (respect for case-sensitive, journaled) with a GUID Partition Table (GPT).

• DESKJET 722C DRIVER FOR WINDOWS 7

  I RECENTLY UPGRADED TO AN HP PAVILION. MY PRINTER IS AN OLDIE BUT GOODIE 722 C I BOUGHT AN ADAPTER CABLE TO CONVERT THE CONNECTOR 25 PINS ON THE PRINTER CABLE TO A USB CONNECTOR. I TRIED THE HP WEB SITE TO GET A DRIVER AND HP SAYS THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE A DRIVER FOR WINDOWS 7. DOES ANYONE HAVE A SUGGESTION ON HOW TO PROCEED FROM HERE IN DEEP SIXING MY 722 AND BUY A NEW PRINTER?

  Sorry, but the above will not work.  The Deskjet 722 is a printer host and is not compatible with the driver Deskjet 6980.

  You can install the driver as follows: connect the printer with the USB converter / parallel.  Click Start, devices and printers, add printer local printer and select the appropriate port. When the list of printers, click Windows Update, and wait a few minutes for the list to repopulate *.  Once the list repopulates select HP as the manufacturer (not HP) and select the driver Deskjet 720C, then.

  You have an 32-bit or the 64 bit version of Windows 7?  If you have a 64-bit Windows 7, you need to a patch as the supplied driver crashes the spooler.  After the installation of the printer (but before you print anything, including a test page) install the patch available here.

  * Edit - if you get an error "Windows could not get a list...". "When you click the Windows Update button, then see the solution here.

• Is there a driver for Windows 7 available for this printer? One user in our office was able to make it work with the Vista driver.

  Is there a driver for Windows 7 available for this printer?  One user in our office was able to make it work with the Vista driver.

  According to the website of Epson here

  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/search.aspx?l=en-us&type=hardware&s=Epson%20fx-980&OS=32-bit

  the latest drivers are for Windows XP 32-Bit.

  This Epson Web page says drivers

  http://eSupport.Epson-Europe.com/ViewArticle.aspx?LNG=en-GB&kbid=324521

  are available via Windows Update.

  Microsoft Windows 7 Compatibility Center:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/details.aspx?type=hardware&p=Epson%20FX-980%20Impact%20Printer&v=Epson&UID=C276001&l=en-us&pf=0&PI=0&s=Epson%20fx-980&OS=32-bit

  says it's not compatible.

  Clearly, there is an inconsistency in the tips above. I would try the road to Windows Update to see if his list - I would test it myself to see if its listed, but my connection to Windows Update seems to be suspended.
