• Reclaim the unallocated space - right of partitions

  I have two hard drives on my computer.  Recently upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit professional.  After data transfer, removal of previous operating system, I have unallocated space both disks located on the right side (as shown in disk management).  On the first disc, unallocated space is to the right of the only partition on the disk - the main partition.  On the second drive, unallocated space is to the right of a pair of partitions - the primary partition and logical partition.

  First, I want to add to the main partition unallocated space.

  On the second, I add 1/2 on the unallocated space on the main partition, the other 1/2 to the logical partition.

  Disk management does not partition to the left.  So, how can I add disk space unallocated right at existing partitions (on the left).

  Appreciate any help.

  Thanks Palcouk!

  Took time for me to get there (my computer was not dead in the water, in order to recover the unallocated portions of the disk was not urgent)... but I used the program you suggested.  It was working fine.

  1/3 of my disc of Microsoft disk management could not recover (which was empty unallocated space) is now part of my OS partition (C :) and the partition I created for programs (p).  (All data from there, files are on a second drive - for many years now, I've kept my data on a 2nd drive w the OS on the 1st disk).

• Can't resize external backup Time Machine in the hard disk partition

  I have a Seagate Expansion to drive 3 that I use for storing files as well and Time Machine. Initially when I set up the drive, I allocated 350GB for the partition that I use with Time Machine.

  I use a 256GB MacBook Pro and Time Machine is now advising me constantly backup capsule is short of space. I have 2 questions:

  1. Disk utility does not allow me to resize the partition of Time Machine (I can only reduce the size using resize controls). Also, I can't delete the partition, because the minutes signed is grayed out (see screenshot) - However, I am able to erase this partition. What can I do to resize (and expand) this partition, or delete it and create a larger partition for use with Time Machine?
  2. What is the best size to send to the Time Machine partition in order to keep my Mac saved 256 GB?

  Thanks in advance!

  A drive that is mounted or shared may present as "Busy" that could prevent resizing.

  Try to disassemble the disc (with the assembly/disassembly button in disk utility) and see if it works better. Then mount it again before leaving the disk utility, or do a reboot to mount again.

  Always backup your virtual machines if you are not sure

  For me, because I am familiar with the disk partitioning, I would just to repartition the disk.  Depends on your comfort level.  method 1 is the "safest".

• Migration of Time Machine to the new drive, backups are larger than the Original drive

  I am currently migrating my Time Machine backups from a 2 TB WD My Passport for Mac to a new WD 6 to my book for Mac. I have 63 backups on the old disk, and Finder says that the reader has TB filled 1.96.

  However, each individual backup is about 350 GB, which certainly does not. I think normally it was something weird with the Finder listing the wrong sizes, except that when I copy the backups to the new disk, they copy effectively to 350GB a piece. I initially tried to copy everything the ~ 2 TB Backups.backupdb at once, but it was so great, she didn't, then I copy on each both a backup in a folder that I had planned to rename "Backups.backupdb" at the end. At this rate, I will fill new TB cases 6 drive long before copying all backups on.

  How is that possible?

  Just to be complete, I'm using a Macbook Pro of the retina 2012, 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 graphics card Intel HD 4000 1536 MB, 512 GB of storage, under OS X 10.11.3.

  Time Machine saves the previous backups for the continuous backup size to become more wider until there is no more space on the backup drive. It is quite normal because Time Machine is an archive backup utility.

• Extend a logical drive with the unallocated space

  Hello

  I have windows 7 Home premium on the 320 GB hard drive.
  I have illustrated on the picture [link] Partitionas
  Now I can extend the C: partition with unallocated 62 GB space, but I can't increase my D: partition. Extend the option is disable on the property of the D: drive.
  I have gained 62GB C: drive by shrinking it. I can use it to increase the C: drive (which is the opposite of my approach), but I can't use it to D: drive.

  Hello

  The extension of the D drive is not possible for the space allocated, created to the left.
  But can be made to the C drive, which is to the left of the unallocated space.

• What does Time Machine to the top of the address book?

  I use OS X El Capitan (10.11.5) and AddressBook application.

  I created a bunch of groups in the address book and must have one accidentally deleted because he disappeared. I use Time Machine and it seems to be compatible with the address book, so I thought I could just go back to an older version, but I can't seem to make it work.

  If I enter Time Machine from the address book application, I see the old backups to return indefinitely. I have chosen one a week ago and restored, but I don't see the old group. In fact, there are always new groups that I just created today.

  So I did not understand what actually have backed up by Time Machine. Is this just backup contact records, but not groups?

  When I restore, it restores the entire database or just a folder that I'm looking?

  Thanks in advance for any suggestion or advice!

• Time machine removed the external drive without warning

  Hello

  I had an external hard drive with a time Machine to the top of my old macbook pro. Today I plugged my new mackbook pro and TIme Machine asked me if I wanted to use it as a return to the top. I said yes, and the process has begun. Then I saw that he had erased everything I had previously on the external hard drive...

  so I stopped immediately.

  Now, my external hard drive is empty with only a couple of the new backup folders... and everything disappeared. Please help, I have all my work on this hard drive and very important documents.

  Thank you very much!

  Maybe this, I used it when nothing else worked, but nothing is a bet of 100%

  the more you use that drive for now more you'll destroy what could be there so disconnect now!

• Using Time Machine or the Migration Assistant to transfer information from and old Mac to a new one

  I had to think about upgrading a Macbook Air to a Macbook Pro and have done research on how pretty much everything (files, account icloud, etc.) to move to a new computer so I know how to do it when the time comes. I didn't save my current computer at the time I got it and didn't know whether it was necessary to do it before the transfer. Also, I found two different ways to move information from one mac to another, one way being using the migration wizard, the other via the time machine. The problem is that I've never used time machine (I checked my settings and it is turned off). I was curious to know which option would be the 'best' way and if not never back up my computer would be a problem. (If its possible, could someone also please explain how to back up my computer?)

  Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward I hope to get a reply soon!

  I use Time Machine often (and have used since its introduction).  I also upgraded my Mac hardware quite often (about every 18 months).  Whenever I move to a new machine, I use the Migration Wizard (and not Time Machine).  I've never had a problem.

  Then I suggest that you need not Time machine specifically in order to change computers.  However, you really need to keep backups simply because the material is not, and without a backup, you are subject to lose everything you have on your computer.

• SanDisk Cruzer, to use the entire disk, but cannot get rid of the unallocated space or format NTFS

  Hello, I just bought this drive with 32 GB. (XP pro, 32-bit ie8 svc pk 3)

  I used CCleaner to clean the disc.

  CompMgmnt now displays 29,82 FAT32 healthy, with 11 mb unallocated.

  When I right click on the unallocated space, properties and help is my only options, no deletion.

  I also want to format it in NTFS, but this isn't one option for others 29,82 inches. I have to format it in ntfs?

  http://www.thinktechno.com/2008/04/22/how-to-format-a-USB-drive-with-NTFS-file-system/   I was able to format to NTFS through this Web site. However, I still want to remove the removable disk unallocated space.

  11 mb is a lot? Diskmanagement lists volume 99% free.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Use the HP format tool (Windows 7/Vista, right-click on the icon and select run as administrator). This will allow you to format to NTFS.

  I wouldn't worry about 11 MB, there is almost nothing (~0.01 GB). He might need it for the system or something.

• time machine, not the size hourly backups

  I've been running Time Machine on a large partition of a hard drive external backup since June 2012.

  I noticed a week ago about 13 December 2015, the TM backup used disk space faster. I found that TM was maintaining all hourly backups since November 1, 2015. It was delete no, he wasn't going to the daily or weekly. So I have every hour Nov. 1 to Dec. 20 (so far) of backup 2015. No idea why started from that date either.

  I then ran disk utility to repair the TM and initially found some mistakes (which I had not), but repaired OK.

  A few days later, I ran THE NEW and confirmed drive was OK.

  I deleted library/preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist and then configure TM again via system preferences. He backed up in the right place but still retained all of the hourly backups.

  I created a small TM backup on another partition of the external hard drive for 36 hours. He kept one then deleted backups older than 24 hours. Just as it takes.

  I put back to elements of TM and original score, but even once he kept keep all backup schedules.

  I started in safe mode, run TM without change.

  I would like to than TM fix/delete all backups hours/then every day as it should be past or in the future.

  All solutions other than 1. manually remove the redundant backups via 'Star Wars' or 2. leave full to have to buy another external hard drive.

  I have a mini PPC running 10.5.8. The backup of my hard drive is about 58 GB, the partition on the HDD is 385 GB with 22 GB of spare right now.

• Time Machine, delete the old files from MacAir?

  We had a MacAir and a MacPro at home and both were using backups time machine on our 2 TB Time Capsule. I sold the MacAir and replaced by a new MacBook. Can I delete the backups Time Machine of old MacAir and make room on my time Machine 2 TB for Macbook? I get a message of disk space for the first backup of the MacBook.

  Can I delete the backups Time Machine of old MacAir and make room on my time Machine 2 TB for Macbook?

  Yes you can.  Your next question may be 'how' to do it.

  Use the Finder to open the disc Time Capsule, named "Data", except if you have renamed the reader

  Here, you will see two files sparsebundle, each bearing the name of Mac, who has been the object of a backup

  Click on the name of the sparsebundle file on behalf of the Mac to highlight the file

  Click the gear just above the window, and then click place in the trash

  He is not coming back, so make sure that you delete the correct file.

  Once the deletion over... it should only take a few minutes... Turn off and restart the time Capsule and you should be all set.

• Transfer only a single backup time machine to the new drive

  Old drive has Time Machine backups for macbook and iMac. A drive is not partitioned.

  New B drive has been partitioned and my intention is to transfer a backup to each partition.

  I can't drag the folder Backups.backupdb on the new disk as it will put two backups on the same partition.

  Can I create a folder Backups.backupdb on each partition, and then drag the backups in their respective folders on their respective partitions?

  Thank you.

  Try using disk/restore to copy the backup to a new location. Please note that this will reformat the destination partition.

• Can record data on a partition of time machine?

  I am able to put things on a partition that is used for time machine without screwing something up? As the partition that has the "Backups.backupdb" folder which I assume has the stuff of time machine in it. Can I copy other files in the partition (but not in this case, of course)?

  I never mix the backups with the raw random data even on the same disk.  Too much chance to "random data" operations damage the backup partition information.
