My imac crashed and required a new hard drive. I have downloaded lightroom again but my library of images is gone

My imac crashed resulting in a new hard drive. I downloaded Lightroom 4 according to the previous disc but none of my old photos are here

Hello

You must copy the library Lightroom (.lrcat) file and the original images from your Time Machine backup disk. If you have not created a backup on a separate time Machine unit (or other backup processes) of your iMac, then you're probably out of luck, unless the defective hard drive can be recovered.

Best regards, Brad

    Hello, my parents computer came RAM volume0 has failed and not be able to start. We went and brought a new hard drive, and its always say the same thing. Any ideas?

    A message on the RAID 0 volume failed is a recognizable error message, but the news is not good.

    RAID, by its nature, requires 2 or more drives.  RAID = redundant Bay of independent (or inexpensive) disks

    RAID 0 is the worst of the different RAID choices.  It increases the performance of hard disk by spreading or striping, data on two disks so that he can read and write more quickly. Unfortunately, such a picture offers no protection of data - in fact, it increases the chances of loss of data since the failure of a disk in the array results in the loss of all data on both drives. RAID 0 configurations are standard on high-end and PCs graphics games and provide a performance gain measurable, albeit modest for games, graphics applications and other programs intense from the hard drive.

    In view of the foregoing, the best course of action for you and your parents is to take the computer to a local computer professional - not a type of place BigBoxStoreUSA or GeekSquad.

  • New hard drive try to install Windows vista but it keep suspended after 60% and collapsed them

    New hard drive try to install Windows vista, but it keep suspended after 60% collapsed I tried a few time every time I had to wait for 5 hours, but the same thing happen again and again can help you pleaaaaaaaaaaaaase

    Monastir,

    What happens when it stops it is have a Sata driver. It is on the drivers cd you received with your computer. You can also start the computer and press F2 to enter the bios. From there down to Configuration system - SATA Operation and change this to ATA. It is located to AHCI. Save the changes and restart the installation. Once you have loaded Windows and drivers installed, you will need to go back to AHCI.

  • Satellite Pro M45 overheating after a few updates and installation of new HARD drive

    I have a sat pro p4 overheated now. I tried the old hoover and this does not work. The thing is that both fans do not seem to turn on. All this happened after I downloaded some updates to put on a new hard drive, I bought.

    Now the fans are not at all turns. My m/b is actually a model of the A45 and I put a 2.0/128/400 CPU inside. The old man who was in it is a 2.4./512/533

    It seems that you have changed almost everything on the laptop.
    Motherboard, CPU, HARD drive, etc.

    Believe me; It s not easy to say why fans don t start. How everyone should exactly known what you did on your laptop?
    Maybe the card mother doesn t provide the power for the fan or the connection is failing.
    Are you sure that the motherboard is ok?

    Unfortunately, all we can do is to hear from you.
    But usually some diagnostic tests are needed to locate the fault.

  • Move all my data and OS to new hard drive

    Hello world

    Well, my problem is that my hard drive which I installed today is insufficient memory.  I can only have a hard drive connected to my computer if I want to transfer everything (including Vista Home Premium) to the new hard drive.  I installed the new hard drive and disconnected my CD player in the process so that both hard drives are now connected and installed ready for operation.  I know how to back up files in windows, but I want to spend all completely (cookies, programs, photos, Vista, etc.) or as much as I can.  I will have to reinstall the programs, but I don't want to reinstall Vista.  I hope that was enough information and thank you for your help!

  • new hard drive recognized in the device mgr but not my computer how to format?

    bought a new hard drive for additional storage running on xp home SP3.  It is recognized in the bios and in Device Manager but not on 'my computer '.  How can I access it to get in shape or to install the NTFS file system on it (if the formatting is incorrect terminology) then it will become usable as a storage device.

    You use the disk for this purpose.

    Start > run > diskmgmt.msc > OK

    Right-click on the unallocated space, choose New Partition and use the wizard to (a) define a drive letter, (b) the size of the partition and (c) format the newly created partition.

  • New hard drive, you had to install OS but laptop has no CD drive.

    I have a new hard drive with no OS and my laptop is not a CD player. I intend to buy the operating system, but I need to know how I can install it once I get it, given my laptop has no CD drive. The operating system can be purchased at the USB format?

    Also, if it's important, I bought my laptop in New Zealand and will buy the operating system to the United States because I now live here. Is how important it?

    Thank you in advance!

    Yes, that's what I say.  Your permit remains valid.

    If there is no problem at all with activation because of a geographic restriction can call the number identified by slui 4 will allow you to resolve, but I don't know that there will be problems.  I know you were already resigned to having to pay for Windows, but this is generally only a problem for some countries and I don't think that Kiwis are included in this group.

    What [precise] version of Windows 7 is identified on the label that has your product key?  If it's normal Home Premium, Pro, Ultimate, then there is nothing more far I helpful to add the link I gave you.

    In the link that I gave you, the procedure for the use of the download MS DVD/USB tool is described.  André illustrations above show you the procedure it will take you through.

    I give you a point of control of this thread to see if you have any questions, leave on a trip in the morning, so will not be able to check again after approximately 8 hours from now [16:08 CEST].

  • Upgraded to windows 7 and also a new hard drive

    I have a 2005 HP m7060n Media Center http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c00306958 & lang = to & cc = us & taskI... running on XP
    I was looking to upgrade to Windows 7 and also install a new drive.  New readers are shipped with windows 7 already preinstalled and when I change the disks, it will start windows 7.
    How could I then exchange the old files to the new drive?
    What is your solution the best and less expensive?  How do you do this?  Help, please.
    Thank you
    Marco

    I suggest that perform you a clone of the hard drive. Seagate drives and WD offer a free version of the wizard disk.

    Clone the original 200 GB drive to the new drive.  To avoid problems, has chosen a 1.5 or 1 t T drive. Once you have the clone, just install the upgrade on the new drive. All your data will remain intact, and the intact original of 200 GB drive is secure.

    PS > you need a spare sata power and data leads to the clone. Look inside and see what led power is hanging loose. Then I can suggest an adapter or cable. As the DVD is IDE, (not Sata) from what I've read, you will need a Sata data cable also.

    I have a Sony laptop that I bought with Vista Business. The hard drive crashed and I bought and installed a new hard drive. I loaded vista hard disk with an OEM, someone lent me. The problem is that the OEM seems to be the wrong version. What can I do with it if I can use my old key?
