My HARD drive is completely lost?

I tried to upgrade to El Capitan last night and he hung up and never finished, so I rebooted and now my computer is dead I think. When I start in disk utility and look at the HARD drive it says capacity 500.11 499.9 available Go. Everything of really gone or can it be saved. Of course, I've never done a backup because im stupid.

Thank you

Correction, he said in fact full at 499.9 Go with 'the other '.

    I don't want Windows 7 at all so I'm ready to lose all data, so how can I do to remove it?

    You say that you have started from the XP CD, but something is wrong with that
    you do. Just boot from the CD and follow the prompts for a
    clean install. A new installation by formatting the

  • MS Office... hard drive crashed, discs lost... How to make MS Office 2010 back upward and running?

    I bought a copy of MS Office 2010 as an employee federal under a special program, directly from Ms.  Recently I'm retired and in the process of my drive hard is no longer operational.  I reload windows 7 on new hard drive.  I lost most of my installed programs, the recorded files were on the backup drive.  Now I need to put MS Office back up and running, but can't seem to find the discs all over all my My packed boxes.  Is it possible to return to MS and get another copy or make a download of MS Office 2010.  Or should I just go buy another version?  I plan move from MS to Apple, just because of all the problems that I had to get the backup and running programs.  The games were a total loss and is not the worst of it, my SW work was a pain in the neck.  Please help if you can.

    Followed by my previous inquiry, my hard drive crashed and lost my copy of Acrobat 9 in the installation of the new hard drive.  How can I go to re - install Acrobat 9 from the disc, I hold. Thank you, Don Hamilton

    Just reinstall from the disc (or download it from https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-8-9-product-downloads.html) and activate it with your serial number.

    If your number of activations exceeds max (2), then you will need to contact customer service.

  • I encrypted my files on a hard drive external and lost

    I encrypted my files on an external hard drive and I've reformatted my hard drive on my widows xp, now I get access denied when I try to access the files on my external hard drive. It can be recovered? I don't change anything on the external hard drive would have key codes have been stored on the actual computer or have it stored on the external hard disk where I have encrypted files? I change my username and password when I reinstalled xp.

    The "key" to your files encrypted using the Encrypting File System (EFS) is stored in your certificate store, which is part of your profile on the Windows system drive.  The certificate itself is encrypted to your Secure ID (SID, which is a unique number created with your username) and your password in the user and who-knows-what else.  Whenever you use any encryption system, if you can't answer the question "Where is my stored encryption key", then you are begging to lose all your information.  When you destroyed your old system, you wiped out the encryption with her key.  Unless you can recover your system from a backup or "best practices" followed by backing up your certificate, I'm afraid that you have lost access to all your data.  Microsoft has tried very hard and succeeds in making transparent encryption keys - at the expense of people in your situation.

    The following is required reading for anyone using EFS and he explains everything very well.  Pay special attention to the paragraph entitled 'Why you should back up your certificates' to the end.

    "Best practices for EFS file system.
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/223316 >

    For the same reasons you have at the moment, I chose to go with the "Truecrypt" freeware as an instead of the EFS encryption solution.  The keys are in my head like a password and I have not lost all data encrypted in 10 years despite having Windows terminally to the crash from under me several times.

  • I had a problem of hard drive and thus lost the Office Access to my web cam. How can I get that back

    I lost the Office Access to my web cam due to a hard drive failure.  He is always in the list of currencies and works on Skype, but is not accessible from the desktop.

    Thank you

    How it was accessed from the "desktop"?

    A web cam works with a software like Skype for example or a program to capture images like YouCAM or Windows Live Movie Maker.

    I'm little by little things most back on my computer, but nobody at Apple Li9ghtroom.

    I'm a professional photographer now time250, 000 images are imported on my desk!

    I want their return in their catolgues in Lightroom.

    Please can someone help.

    If you have backups of the Lightroom catalogs and photos, while there should be no problem. Just copy the files from the catalog and photos at their original location. No import is necessary... in fact import is the wrong thing to do if you have backups of files catalog.

    If you do not have backups of your catalog files. Well well... that's a bad situation. You must import photos. According to the options you set in Lightroom (or does not), you may lose your changes and metadata supplied by the user when importing.

  • Hard drive is dead/lost Pages

    I replaced my drive hard when disk utility told me that the original, we weren't. Everything was backed up via Time Machine and more seems to have recharged properly. However, I bought Pages and Keynote Apps. but they were not included when I reloaded the Lion. What should I buy? IPhoto App is not here, tho iTunes, address book and iCal are. My photos are all there, as is my music. I'm under Lion 10.7.5 on a Mac Mini.

    IWork ' 09 and iPhoto applications are not included in any version of Mac OS X, because they are paying, laminated products. If you bought Pages ' 09, Keynote ' 09 and iPhoto on the OS X App Store, you can be able to re-download them Lion via the tab bought the OS X App Store app, but that Apple has abandoned the iWork ' 09 Suite in 2012 and iPhoto this fall - they are simply not available to you.

    Back in time you go into your Time Machine backup? Try six months, providing only that worked properly. You will only be able to restore the Pages ' 09 and Keynote ' 09 if they were purchased through the OS X App Store. If they have been installed from the DVD of iWork ' 09, then you will need to reinstall it again and then update versions and the more recent ' 09 with the updater iWork 9.3. This update is only for use after installation from the DVD and can not be used with their applications purchased in the OS X App Store.

    If your search for time machine still does not allow you to retrieve the Pages ' 09 and Keywork ' 09, then what amazon sells still DVD iWork ' 09. If iPhoto is unavailable from Time Machine, Amazon has iLife ' 09, and iLife 11 DVD as well.

  • Hard drive crashed... Lost serial number

    Is it possible to recover a lost Adobe 9.0 serial number if my hard drive failed? The hard drive is completely unusable, and there is no way to retrieve all the data from it. I was not the original owner of this product, so I wasn't even the one who made my business registration. Any ideas?

    Check with one who makes your purchases... I'm sure that you will need some kind of proof of purchase

    Then, tell your staff COMPUTER you must use the software to do a full backup on DVD or a USB hard drive, so you can restore to a new drive, if necessary

  • My files on the hard drive are getting corrupted?

    I use the model of MacBook Air 2013 Yosemite running. I have a Seagate BackPlus 1 TB drive to NTFS. And I use Tuxers NTFS on my Mac to read and write files from NTFS devices. Lately, I'm sloly from knowledge that my files on the hard drive are getting corrupted. When I try to open any folder I blocks until I have remove my hard drive. I lost some files like this. Now, they are completely inaccessilble. The big sone files show even ehen 0 bytes, they are around a GB or something. I start out freak because all my data is in this hard drive. 1 TB of data. Its my life is locked in it.

    Is someone can you please tell me what is happening with my hard drive?

    Thanks in advance...

    Is someone can you please tell me what is happening with my hard drive?

    Probably not. The problem you are experiencing is almost certainly that the drive itself has failed. It could have also been caused by third party software that you use to support a formatted NTFS volume. Isolate the cause to one or the other is probably not an effort worth it, because the files themselves are probably already damaged and unusable. In this case the only alternative to certain to succeed is to restore from a backup.

    As you know the Mac FAT32 and ExFAT supports and can read, but not write - formatted NTFS volume. For this reason, if you ask the Windows compatibility, you must select ExFAT.

    You could try using the third-party data recovery software, even if success is not guaranteed. I can offer no specific product recommendations.
