• Password protect an external hard drive connected to Time Capsule

  I have a WD passport external hard drive connected to my time capsule, so my wife and I can easily share files. I have the external hard drive connected through the locked time capsules WiFi network so someone in the House can not access however if they walked the time capsule and not plugged in the external hard drive they could walk away with it. When I try to password protect external hard drive then time capsule may not recognise, and so I can't use it as an external hard drive that is shared. No one knows how, to password protect the external hard drive connected to the time capsule as if someone physically stole the external hard drive it would be locked, but have yet still recognizable by Time Capsule when I plugged?

  Hope that makes sense.

  The only way to do is to encrypt the files on the computer.

  And you both use the same password. Unfortunately, this probably means that you can not share files directly... The TC is not a SIN... never, it was designed for this purpose so there no controls to help admin file sharing.

  If you create a DMG file on WD drive that encrypt you and you can copy files to and from... but only one at a time.

  Another method would be to use a specific software... Watch chronosync.

  http://www.econtechnologies.com/Chronosync/guide-sync-with-disk-image.html

  I don't him have not run in this configuration... so, you have to experiment if it manages what you want.

  I think that there will always be limitations on concurrent access from multiple computers.

• How to reset the password forgotten on external HARD drive

  Hello

  I forgot the password of my external hard drive.
  How can I reset this?

  It has all my photos out there I want to come back.

  The external HARD drive comes with software that the password. Have you used this software?

  I m not very well what HARD drive you have exactly, but in the case of the password disk HARD unknown could be deleted, so I guess that by using such software.

  But I'm afraid, this is not possible and if yes, then secure files could serve more than m.

  I say it in a different way: password protection would be useless if you can remove any unknown or forgotten password. Don't you think?

  What to do if you forget your Windows password

  If you have forgotten your Windows password and you are on a domain, you must contact your system administrator to reset your password. If you are not on a domain, you can reset your password by using a reset disk of password or by using an administrator account. For more information, see create a password reset disk or reset your Windows password.

  If you forget the administrator password, and you do not have a password reset disk or another administrator account, you will not be able to reset the password. If there is no other user account on the computer, you will not be able to connect to Windows and you will need to re - install Windows.

  Reset password

  If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it using a disc to reset password for your user account (or the password reset information stored on a USB flash drive). If you don't have a password reset disk, you'll need to get someone with an administrator account on the computer to reset your password for you.

  Note

  If an administrator resets your password, you may lose access to some of your files. For more information, see What are the risks of resetting a password?

  1. If you enter the wrong password when you attempt to log on, Windows displays a message that the password is incorrect. Click OK to close the message.

  2. Click Reset password, and then insert your password reset disk or USB key.

  3. Follow the steps in the password reset Wizard to create a new password.

  4. Login with the new password. If you forget your password again, you can use the same password reset disk. You don't need to make a new.

  To learn how to change your password, see change your Windows password. For more information about storing password reset information, see create a password reset disk.

• Apply a password to a folder

  How can I request a password in a folder in Vista?

  You really cannot password protect folders with Vista (However, you can protect zipped files/records http://techblissonline.com/how-to-password-protect-zip-files-in-windows-xpwindows-vista/) - which is not one of its features (at least it is not in 32-bit Vista Business SP2 or any other version I've seen).

  Here is a free software that protects files in encrypted them so only people you want to be able to access it can do without seeing just gibberish: http://www.newsoftwares.net/folderlock/.  It does not use a password (just your connection user name rights), but it accomplishes the same goal.  There is also a paid version of this program that, in my view, password protect folders (or the free version can also well - information is not entirely clear).

  It's not exactly what you want, but it can serve your needs - you can check it out and see for yourself: http://www.bestvistadownloads.com/software/k-folder-lock-hide-password-protect-private-file-t-free-easy-file-locker-download-thfxsbeu.html.

  It's not exactly what you want, but affects the protection of password for the files (in an unusual way): http://www.nirmaltv.com/2008/07/25/password-protect-your-folders-in-windows-with-my-lockbox/.

  Here is one that seems to be what you want, but I can't say if it can be isolated from the other features that you may not: http://www.easyfreeware.com/folderdefence_free-38583-freeware.html.

  I don't know if you are hosting a web page, but if you do, you can get software password protection free in Exchange for a permanent link to the company being placed on your web page: http://www.protect-folders.com/free.html.  It can also be bought--I don't check the price.

  In here's one for $20, which just about everything you'd want from a software folder password protected: http://www.filebuzz.com/fileinfo/5682/Protect_Folder_98.html - but I normally do not recommend software that costs money because it has options (such as the others listed here) who are free and they often work just as good if not better.  I added this just so that you would have a final option if you do not like the others.

  This should be enough options to check them out and make a choice (if it meets your needs).  To do exactly what you want (and only that) probably requires commercial software (as above)-if I'm wrong, and one of them can do the job very well.

  I hope this helps.

• Is it possible to set a password to a folder randomly in Windows 7?

  I would like to know if it is possible to add a protection password to a folder created in Windows 7. I realize that you can set up different user accounts or enter the settings on a network share, but it's not my situation. I usually let the friends and other family members just use my computer without going to the trouble to set up a new user account. I would like to create a folder where I can keep the documents with lists of passwords, numbers of accounts and other sensitive data. Is it possible to simply set a password to a single folder?

  It is not possible to specifically put a password on a folder and using something like file encryption would not be useful to you or given to your entire family use the same account.

  Short of recommending the use of different accounts that would be wise you might look at some of the solutions available out there like PGP and so on.

  You might also consider password protecting the actual files, then your file passwords, for example, if it's in Microsoft Word, add a password.

  Simple answer, however, is to use accounts for different users, for this and many many other advantages...

  Good luck!

  Thanks for posting the question in the Microsoft Community forums. According to the description, you need help to get an alert message when you attempt to open a file, folder or drive.

  The alert message you received disk and backup recovery file is supplied by the manufacturer.
