On the utility of record pass-protected when the disk is encrypted

Dear all,

I recently put my hands on a new internal drive SSHD and decided to quantify using filevault. Keep important documents on my mac, I used to create folders of password-protected using a disk with disk utility image. Now, my question is simple: is there a utility on the creation of these encrypted files as all the disk itself is already encrypted? This would add valuable new protection?

Thank you very much in advance,

Richard

If your disc is encrypted, then the only way that anyone (including YOU) can look at the contents of your Volume is to provide your password to disk, which we hope is a long and strong password, not only a short practice. Depending on how paranoid you are, perhaps you fell there is additional value on encryption more away from the additional items. But for extra security, the password for your encrypted disks in addition should not be readily available on your drive any just-encypted.

Most users have very good success with encrypted Volumes. They manage to protect their records from the person mostly likely to access - themselves. DO NOT ENCRYPT YOUR DRIVE WITHOUT CREATING A RELIABLE BACKUP! The encryption is strong - there is no 'rescue' for an encrypted Volume that goes wrong for any reason, including failure of the drive.

  • PlayReady update was Incomplete.You will not be able to watch or record content protected until the is qualified. Everyone I have this same problem and found a solution?

    I clean installed 2 x times the RC of windows 7 pro x 64. Both times I got this error in media center. I manually downloaded the playready 1.3 program. I can record my channels satalite with no problems so I don't understand why he repeats the above message. However, I am worried that when the DRM updates for the satalite it won't work and I won't be able to update. I have not changed anything in the hardware level in the computer as so he wouldn't because he thinks it's another computer. Any help would be appreciated.

    Clarification on this: summer working on this issue for more than 2 months on 4 computers, that's what I found.

    Note: Not all the patches will work on a pc due to various stages of updates, patches, etc. No matter what anyone says or claims. What works for me, the other person or even technical support, may not be due to a strange configuration on your pc. Nevertheless, that's what I did on the final 3 computers that have no auto update of the readyplay.

    (1) get to the point in media center it says Readyplay failed to update, you want to try again.

    (OPTIONAL) Download the tool from Microsoft DRM Reset, change in Compatibility Mode for Windows 7 (or any version of Windows), run the tool as admin. He must install and say successful.

    (2) open Windows "Services" via the control panel > administrative tools > Services.

    (3) with Media Center open and show "the PlayReady update was incomplete. Do you want to retry? "Goto Control Panel"Services"you just opened and scroll all the way" Services Windows Media Center Receiver ", double-click it, and then click on"Stop ".

    4) navigate to the folder ReadyPlay HIDDEN (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\PlayReady), and THEN Delete the mspr.hds file.

    (5) return to the OPEN & CONTINUES, Media Center and click 'Yes' and 'Next' to the question of the PlayReady update. He should immediately zip past and say update complete & you can watch and record copy-protected blah blah blah. It can also update a guide or something too.

    If this doesn't work for you after that 5-6 tests, you have something to another block you, but you don't have need for both 32 bit and 64 bit PlayReady installed to update. This is the 'Service' which is really prevents the update, but simply stop w/o those other steps do not work >.

    Good luck!

    I want to run a vi that has a switch that passes between when run in vi It gives meeesage the highest level VI stopped for the unknown

    What should do?

    bisso92,

    You must be more specific...  When you say that you want the cover to be visible when it is called, I suspect you mean sub - vi.  You can go to the menu:

    File > properties VI then select the appearance of the window, followed to customize and select "display panel when called.  You can also select close thereafter, while initially closed.

    There are other "tricks", such as the incorporation of secondary school within your main VI, in this way, you can see both.

    Normally, a hand VI (or main function in other languages), would still present so that the operator can perform other operations.  If so you should look at using a Structure of the event with a producer / arrangement of consumer, where the consumer in a loop has the case structure where the sub-vis.

  • Properties on my records show that about 25 GB, but when I check the properties on the disk C it says I have 103 GB

    Properties on my records show that about 25 GB, but when I check the properties on the disk C it says I have 103 GB. Are these files was hiding all? and how do I know if I can delete them or when they are?

    My computer is running out of disk space, and I want to delete some files, so the computer longer smooth but I can not find about 80 GB which is supposed to be on my computer.

    Very likely. This includes your Hibernate file, if there is one, your pagefile, and (I think) the Restore Points.

    You have a single hard drive? If so, how much is spread over it? If only a C: partition, how big is it and how much space you have?

    Deleting files (unless the hard drive is almost completely filled) won't help your performance. After the back if you need advice.

  • In ultimate windows 7, when I want to paste or create a file on USB, windows says: the disk is write protected. ?

    in Window 7 Ultimate. When I want to create a file or paste a file copied to a USB port or flash memory, windows cannot perform this action and the message: the disk is write protected.but when I used the same USB Win XP, disc is OK and not write-protected.
    I tried this question on several USB key, but the result was the same.
    anydody can help me?

    Hi Saleh2506,

    You can try and remove the disc, remove the write protection (by reversing a tab on the disk), and then try again.

    If you do not have the valve on the USB, try the following steps to resolve the problem:

    1. Click Start , type regedit.exe and press ENTER.

    2. navigate to the following location:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrrentControlSet\Control

     

    3. control with the right mouse button and select new and key.

    4. call it as StorageDevicePolicies.

    5. click on StorageDevicePolicies and on the right pan right click and select new > DWORD and name it as WriteProtect.

    6 double-click it and set its value to 0.

    This will disable the write protection on USB/flash drives.

    Restart your computer and check to see if that fixes the problem.

    Important The above section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    Hi aymana10507726,

    With player application you can not remove the protection.

    However, you can perform using Acrobat application.

    Remove password security

    You can remove security from an open PDF if you have the permissions to do so. If the PDF is secured with a security policy based on server, only the author of policy or a server administrator can change.

    Open the PDF file, and then click Tools > Protect > Encrypt > remove security.

    Your options vary depending on the type of password security attached to the document:

    If the document contains only a Document open password, click OK to delete the document.

    If the document contains a permissions password, type it in the box, enter the password, and then click OK. Click OK again to confirm the action.

    Kind regards

    You may need to reset your preferences of hearing files stored in C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\5.0. If you rename this folder in 5.0.bak that hearing won't find it when you open the next time if it will recreate a new settings with the default settings folder. See if hearing then works as expected.

  • How do I enter recorded meetings? When I click on the "meetings" tab it says I don't have permission

    How do I enter recorded meetings? When I click on the "meetings" tab it says I don't have permission

    Meeting records will have a direct URL, as well as meeting rooms and the content in Connect. You probably not a member of the host of the meeting or Group Admin group in this Connect account, so you do not have the permissions to access the library of the meeting.

    You will need either the host of the meeting room as you are looking for the registration you get the link and make sure you have the appropriate permissions to view, or switch the recording to the content library where it can be placed in a folder that you have viewing permissions.

  • Help! My MacBook goes to sleep when the disk (on the recovery partition) utility is running!

    Currently, my MacBook is initialized in the Lion recovery partition. I am running disk utility and try to reduce the main partition, so I can clone a smaller HD (Yes, still there is enough space on the smaller disk.) But I have a problem... my custody of Mac to go to sleep, resulting in a never-ending cycle of wake - sleep-cancellation. The progress bar is apparently stuck to half way through. I don't want to touch anything, for fear of making the disk unbootable. (Of course, it is possible that it is already in ruins, but...) But I also have other things to do; I want to stay here all day just to keep typing on the keyboard, move the mouse, etc, to keep my Mac awake.

    Never mind. Looks like disk utility is stuck, and nothing happened. After a reboot and a repair, the volume is OK, but not shrunk.

    After installing the disk drive on an XP machine, you will probably have to 'Take Ownership' of the folders/files.  Even if the user name (i.e. 'administrator') may be the same on both machines, Windows recognizes users by the Secure ID that will be different on the two machines.  The following procedure, you should get going again:
