Hello. I created a disk image of my mac HD on an external hard drive. It is: my mac HD is used 282 320 GB, backup disk image, I did a 251 gb. Is all backed up? I need to be sure before you reformat the HD and install mac so original. Can anyone help on this? Thank you
Probably not.
Need an external hard drive as large or larger than the drive you want to back up.
You have not said what backup software you are using.
I use Carbon Copy Cloner by https://bombich.com/ $40.00 there. You can also use Super Duper.
These two products will make a bootable backup complete or a clone of you existing hard drive, including your recovery partition.
Once you made the backup, if your hard drive has never been to fail, you could simply start on the external backup drive.
If you back up because you're upgrading the hard drive for an SSD, you can put the SSD in an external enclosure and clone your drive in the SSD, test it, and then replace the HD when you are confident that it works well.
P.S. External hard drives are cheap these days. Here is an example: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/wd-my-passport-ultra-1tb-external-usb-3-0-2-0-portab le-hard-drive-classic-black/7869174.p? id...

How can I copy the folder my documents in my iCloud drive and then I sync the two after that?
How can I copy the folder my documents in my iCloud drive and then I sync the two after that?
You can simply drag in iCloud reader, but I pass and move documents in their files app instead. It will probably take a while to download all documents.
It is not a way to sync without some third party software that synchronizes folders, or learn how to use rsync in the Terminal.
Instead of synchronization, simply use the iCloud drive in the 'Documents' folder after you move the files.

Hi all
I only have one disc space (C) with 1 TB space, the free volume of that disk is about 330 GB, I want to reduce it to create the new volume. In disk management, I checked the drive to shrink the process after that he had finished he told me that there is space for shrinkage of 9 GB!
Can someone help!Original title: Shrink Volume
The common cause for limited space retractable is the Table of master files (MFT). It is essentially a system file good behaviour that even Windows own Defrag tool will not move.
PerfectDisk will clean this file and there is a free trial available.

Original title: replacement disk and windows.
Hello guys.
I am considering buying a new laptop. The model that I found and I like has a HARD drive if I want to replace it with the SSD to the format of my previous laptop. (Due to the low energy consumption, greater speed, etc.). So I have a 256 gb SSD in my previous loan of laptop replace new one HARD disk, yet what will happen with my agent and active Windows 8, I will have bought with the laptop?
I can reinstall windows 8 on the SSD, but I don't have a key to activate their... How will I be able to get the key from previous series if the laptops will only work with a recovery partition these days here? I asked a guy in the store, I buy my laptop since and he told me that he does not know and I have to ask for help. However, to create a message of support I need a serial number of the model I did not because I have not yet bought a laptop, so I don't know what to do... I really don't want to stick with the HARD drive, but also I can't afford another model.
Is it possible to do a recovery with my laptop disk when I get it, then replace the drive with my SSD and run the recovery disc I made?
The laptop I want to buy is an Asus if that helps...
Thanks in advance...
The 'Raw' State is not necessary, it is the State of any drive (SSD drive or hard drive) would be in if you just remove a disk new in box and will need to be "initialized", since you have already used the player already initialized sound.
Do not format the drive, rather than delete all existing partitions, (the SSD shows then as being "unallocated"). Now you are ready to restore the backup Image you created. During the restore process Acronis will recreate the partitions that were on the hard drive on your SSD.

I managed to uninstall my acrobat pro, but my adobe application manager seems to think that I still have it. I do not see how to download it from adobe and re install. Can anyone help? I spent many hours trying to get my creative cloud version to run after the license of first years has failed. It was a bit of a nightmare and sie Adobe is not easy to get help from.
I spent a few hours trying to untangle a redemption code. I dropped so uninstalled acrobat, because he is no longer works apparently. I managed to find out how to buy a new redemption code for creative cloud through the Institute where I exposed, but now I can't get a download for my acrobat, one that will work on my macbook pro 2010 running 10.6.8
Navigation in the adobe site was not easy and not very impressed in terms of achieving support for the problems and responses so far. Only no reply emails usually that means logging in time and time again.

Thanks to all of you who tried to help him. I thank can I have managed to sort it out. It seems that I can not have uninstalled initially, but I could not access the program and all my pdfs, opens in preview. I found another uninstall program that seems to have done the trick as my adobe application manager is now let me download.
I hope it will do the trick and my thanks to all who responded. Bravo guys. I hope that I won't make the same mistake next year ;-)

My HP 5610 printer will not print Calibri can anyone help
Hello
My printer and my tongue do not like this policy. My simple solution: use a different font. Even some applications do not use/like this font. I don't know why MS puts it in Office by default, and users will have to change.
Kind regards.

After you download El Capitan, I received the following error message when you try to install: the drive is not formatted in MAC OS extended (journaled). Use disk utility to enable logging or reformat the disc. Can anyone help? (My disk utility shows that she in MAC OS extended (journaled) format.)
It shows that it is Mac OS extended, not journaled. Click enable logging in the toolbar.
The thing you read is if you format the drive using the RAID settings you have selected. You have to look at the bottom of the window where it shows the Format.
