Portable HD drive letters

• Media Player 12 does not recognize removable media (drive letters, sd cards, compact flash, usb, android phones drives) as a synchronized device. Running under 7 64-bit.

  Tried and tried to make it work. According to announcements of Microsoft on removable media, you can synchronize however every time I try to get Media Player 12 to sync it search devices and just empty. I have connected devices and they have drive letters in Windows Explorer. I even clicked on the link 'open as a portable device' in Windows Explorer and then went back to media player and it doesn't. I can open whatever music is on the device in the file menu in media player. In mp 11 I could synchronize throughout the day with my removable devices. I just thought they had disabled this feature until I read that you're supposed to be able to do. I connected my Samsung Captivate as memory mass and tried as well, but obviously missed. I plugged as an MTP device and in Windows Explorer, the Autoplay option is "Sync digital media files to this device using Windows Media Player". So I think this will be a safe work, I try several times, restart the computer and the phone. Recognized again in Windows Explorer, everything seems like there should be no driver issue, but Media Player still does not recognize my camera! Help!

  Update: I left a removable USB enclosure to connect for three years and a half hours. I've forgotten about it with media player running, came back and noticed, it was listed as a device in media player. So it looks like you could synchronize this right? FAKE! I dragged music to synchronize with it and the sync button is grayed. A lot of space on the device. Well, what about MP now recognizes the drive, I'll unplug the unit and then plug it back in and maybe will correct some glitch MP knows. Wrong again! New MP can't find the device! I thought that software/computers were supposed to get faster not taking 3.5 hours to connect a device and then maybe someday in the future, you can synchronize your device. But at this point don't still no luck. I just thought that Microsoft has decided to get rid of the features within the MP to synchronize removable devices because I could never get this far until reading last night it is supposed to work with key cards, usb sd and removable media. After having no luck in getting MP to reconnect to my USB stick, I erased the cache device thinking that would help, but no, he didn't.

  Another update: when I connect my phone as a MTP device, AutoPlay rises and there is an option to synchronize with Windows Media Player. When I click on this option, MP opens and then said: "searching for devices" and never find the "SGH-I897" (Samsung Captivate). Anyway if I go up as mass storage or the DPW Windows device sees and I can move the files, but cannot get the Media Player to find it or recognize it! It should be simple enough for where Windows Media Player should be.

  It worked for me, once put into automatic I clicked on the Start button and the rebooted enumerator. I restarted WMP and there was my flash drive in the synchronization domain.

  Thank you!!

• Iomega Portable hard drive now does not appear under "Devices" after accidentally deleted USB cable. USB

  My Iomega eGo Portable hard drive was connected by USB on my Macbook Pro OSX 10.9.5 cable and I was transferring my iPhoto folder.  Unfortunately, the cable dropped and I got a message on my laptop hard drive had not ejected correctly.   I reconnected it the cable, but now, it does not appear under devices in the search page.  I also checked the disc utilities and it isn't here either.  I tried to connect the hard drive of my iMac, but it does not appear in the devices out there either.

  Although I have been using a Mac since they first appeared on the market and can usually work things, I find it more and more difficult with all the new technology.  Everything that used to be so easy, one of the great things the Mac since MS-DOS.

  If anyone can help I would be very grateful, because I have a lot of files on this disc of old Mac and use the Iomega to backup my most important files.

  The drive may have failed.

  Try different USB cables.

  Remove the naked drive from the iOmega enclosure and test it in a known functional wardrobe.

  Ciao.

• I use MozBack to the top, when I followed the instructions of the wizard a file on my portable hard drive. I went back to Thunderbird and my Inbox was deleted

  I use MozBack to the top, when I followed the instructions of the wizard a backup file on my portable hard drive. I'm back to Thunderbird I found the content of my Inbox was deleted. Sent and deleted files have not been removed. I then returned to MozBackup and followed the instructions to restore the information from my Inbox, but it didn't happen.
  What I did wrong.

  as incredible as it may seem. MozBackup has nothing to do with Mozilla or Thunderbird. If you have any questions about mozbackup I don't really know where you're going.

• How can I transfer my favorites on an external/portable hard drive?

  I know that similar questions had been asked, but the responses I've seen seem to be too techie or does not apply. The bottom line is I lose my cell phone next week and would like to transfer Favorites (and Outlook address book if someone who knows also) on my WD portable hard drive. Thank you!

  If you go to view all bookmarks (Ctrl + Shift + B) or:

  • Bookmarks > show all bookmarks

  There should be an option to "import and backup". You can export your bookmarks to an HTML element and save the file wherever you want. You can then import this file in Firefox on your new laptop computer.

  The synchronization may be a better option, please see:

• Canvio portable HDD driver won't install

  Hello

  I hope someone is able to help me.

  I try to use a portable hard drive Toshiba (HDTB110AK3BA) on a laptop computer of other manufacturer that has a Windows 7 operating system.

  However, I keep just said that the device driver has not been installed properly and that is why the unit will not operate.

  I tried searching online for drivers to download for this device, but have had no luck finding anything.

  Is someone can you please tell me where I might be able to download the drivers, or a way I can get the drivers installed correctly the unit?

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  You're talking about on this external HARD drive:
  http://www.Toshiba-multimedia.com/EU/store-external-hard-drives/Canvio/

  This external HARD drive is a device to plug ' n play. This means that no special drivers are required.

  But the HARD disk supports the USB 3.0 standard. This means that a USB 3.0 provide 900mA. A standard USB 2.0 provide 500mA so if your computer supports only supported USB 2.0, you must connect the drive HARD 2 ports USB 2.0 to ensure that enough power would be provided.

• Satellite P70-A01D: change the drive letters after the 2nd SSD upgrade

  I think it's a generic UEFI / Win 8.1 question (not according to model).

  However, FWIW, I have a Satellite P70-A01D (bought locally here in Australia).

  It is a victory of 16 GB 17.3 inch Gen4 i7 4700MQ Intel HM86 8.0 64-bit RAM.
  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/products/computers/satellite/P70/psplpa-01d002/specifications

  I updated the OS to Win 8.1

  The P70 is supplied with a drive Bay HARD vacuum #2 - I bought a 250 GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD that I want to use as the main system disk / boot Win 8.1.

  I installed this SSD in bays #2 and from there I had no problem using the wizard of Samsun cloning software provided with the SSD (VCC 4.0) to clone my 1 TB on the SSD system.

  There are a lot of instructions from Samsun and around the web on how to clone and "substitute" of a HDD with a SSD - however there are much less when it comes to 'Add' the SSD - in the #2 Bay - while always keeping the original HDD fully functional as an additional drive.

  After execution of the cloning software, I tried just go into the settings of the UEFI on reboot and change the order of the boot drive placing the SSDS over HARD drive.

  It worked but there are obviously questions still as I had not renamed readers SSD worked as system but he was editing as D: and HARD drive was still C: and most of the system/application paths were always scheduled to access C:!

  It led to the crash and restart cycles of the Bureau (? & or explorer.exe?) and two consistent error messages:
  -"SkyDrive engine Sync host has stopped working".
  -"Host for the synchronization setting process has stopped working".

  I saw in the Control Panel-Administrative Tools-Computer Management-Online Storage-online-online right click on each drive disk management online online that I can access > however
  (a) I'm not sure if the solution I need is this simple;
  (b) nervous about change of letter on a disk while running the system; and
  (C) uncertain steps in order of evolution [IE. C: (non - sys) becomes M; D: (sys) becomes C:...

  At the moment via UEFI I'm back to working with the system on the HARD disk rather than on the SSD seems stable and without compromise of my screwing around!

  Apologies for the long post by train to make sure to include all relevant information. I think that my final goal is double win bootable 8.1 / Ubuntu 12.04 of the SSDS probably with Ubuntu on a 50 GB partition leaving 200 GB (enough?). I want to keep a slab of SSD space available for photo and video editing: +/-100 GB!

  I wondered simply assign new letters to readers, however the notes at the bottom of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows7/change-add-or-remove-a-drive-letter state:

  You cannot change a drive letter if the drive is a system partition or a boot partition.

  Suggestions please?

  Hello

  I think you could try to change the letter to readers as suggested in the Microsoft article.
  Where this is not possible, try to use 3rd party such as GParted software.
  http://gparted.org/LiveUSB.php

  You could try changing the drive letters might start to the top of the unit using the live USB version.
  But it might be possible that your system would not initialize correctly after this change.

  So you should not forget to mark the partition as bootable.

  Your comments would be appreciated

• How to copy a file photo of iMac for portable hard drive

  I want to save a series of photos on a portable hard drive. Drag the file from my 'albums' location does not work. What I am doing wrong?

  Jeff

  What photo app are you using and are really still on Tiger 10.4.1? Finally, we need to know how the EHD you use are formatted. If you n ' t know this, select the drive in the Finder, and then type the command-I (as Ivan) and search for information on the format.

  If you are not sure which version of Mac OS X, please click on the Apple symbol in the upper left corner of the screen and select about this Mac.

  Without these bases, it is difficult to answer your question, please read the above carefully and answer all questions.

• Can I combine several old backups located on a portable hard drive in a backup on the same hard drive?

  Can I combine several old backups that are on a portable hard drive in just a backup with all the files, but no duplicates on the same hard drive?

  How did you create these backups?

• External drive letters do not mount properly.

  Hi all, here is one for you.

  I have Western Digital external storage drives, I plug it on and use that I need different things.

  One of these if my software (Memeo) backup on a 500G drive.

  I've marked these drives so I know which ones are connected.

  It seems that Memeo is stuck seeing the drive letter (H in order to run backups here.)

  It's ok, but for some reason when I connect this drive to backup on the machine, it is no longer happens as (H.)

  He always default (I have and I can't it will come up with (H.))

  I realize that this all depends on which order that plug you into the discs.

  Note: I have an another external WD 4 TB of video storage and I noticed that this seems to be required on the (H car (or so it seems) adjustment.)  Event with this player not connected not I can't get any player to come as (H, but as soon as I plug the video storage disk (H appears on the right.))

  My question: is there a way to 'flush' or 'clear' this setting to hold somewhere on it.  Or do you have other ideas?

  I'm under Win 8.1 on a HP Pavilion Notebook of Ent.

  Thanks in advance,

  Change/assign letters to drive manually using disk management. Or at least the video player. Plug it, go to the management of records, right click on the drive and select "change drive letter and path. Choose a path of letter Z same key string, maybe. If the backup drive is not given then H, repeat the process and give it the drive letter permanent h.

  Make Disk Management-press the Windows key and x. easily choose disk management from the list.

• Portable: hard drive DST SHORT failed

  My computer won't start and repeatedly goes to a blue screen with a sunburst type above (the mouse pointer still work). I've run the HP tests and get this result:

  "Short DST: FAILURE.

  FAILURE ID: GDSDBX-TLR7RJ-9XL03F-604J03

  PRODUCT ID: XF288EA #ABU

  Hard drive 1

  "Test drive: FAILED.

  I guess that means that my hard drive is irreparable, but can someone confirm this. Also, I will be able to buy another hard drive and use the ERD that I did to reinstall Windows 7? I ask because it was preinstalled on your laptop and came with no disk to reinstall. Only, I was commissioned to do a repair disk.

  Thanks in advance.

  Dan

  Each time the short hard drive DST test fails with 24 alphanumeric characters "GDSDBX-TLR7RJ-9XL03F-604J03" which indicates that the hard drive has failed and which needs to be replaced to solve the problem

  This problem could be due to an Application or a driver conflict, virus issues, corruptions of files due to incompatible applications, incorrect judgments, update failures due to conflicts, mounted sudden power so portable, sudden falls etc...

  HP will offer a replacement HDD if the laptop warranty is Active, otherwise you can buy a SATA hard drive in a nearby retail store

  Please make sure that you get at least equal as long as the original one in order to use recovery disks. If you need you can buy a bigger, but not smaller hard drive capacity. For example, if you have a 500 GB hard drive you can improve it to 750 GB hard drive, but not 320 GB hard drive

  Please try the troubleshooting below indicated once the steps:

  Step 01. Remove the battery and unplug the power adapter AC.

  Step 02. Press and hold the power button for more than 30 seconds

  Step 03. Plug the AC power adapter / (leave the battery for now)

  Step 04. Press the power button and check if the unit is operating normally

  If the steps listed above is not enough, then you can try reinstalling the hard disk on your laptop

  If the problem persists again please Contact HP if your HP laptop is under warranty, HP could replace the hard drive and provide recovery media to restore the operating system to factory after the replacement (if you have not yet created recovery disks/USB support)

  Note: Back up all personal data on an external drive if possible. Otherwise, you can connect the HDD defective via SATA USB adapter with another PC or a PC even after replacing the HARD drive & put in place of the operating system and try to copy / retrieve files.

  I'm under Arcserver UDP as my backup software. I have Windows Server R2 2012. I am trying to assign the same drive letter to two external drives, whereas when I'm running late at night, I won't be able to enter and change the drive letter that the software records the back up. I tried to go through the Disk Manager tool and it won't let me assign drive letters, but he won't let me assign the same drive letter to 2 different disks. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

• Can not get my portable floppy drive to work on my computer

  Original title: I have a portable floppy drive that works on all computers but mine! It indicates that the device is installed and ready to use, but when I put in a disc, nothing happens. What can I do?

  It was in the shop and they said it worked fine in my computer to the shop. But at home, nothing. I tried on my old Mac and it works, too, but not on my PC.

  Hi Barrydraw1,

  ·         What operating system is installed on your computer?

  ·         What is the brand and model of the computer?

  ·         The floppy drive is not detected by the computer?

  ·         Have you tried to insert a different floppy disk and check?

  If the drift of floppy is not getting recognized by the computer, and then run the Fixit and check.

  Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows

  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/

  If your computer does not support floppy drive so it will not work.

  I hope this helps.

• A Portable hard drive operating system compatibility

  I bought a Seagate Expansion Portable hard 3 TB drive and want to transfer the files on my old PC (which uses the operating system WIN XP) on my new PC (which uses the operating system WIN 7). When I connect the camera on my old PC, it is not displayed in "My Computer", but it can be seen under "sensor external hard drive... I followed the suggestion of Seagate to reformat the device in the MBR format but persists above. Is there a way I can connect to my old PC so that I can transfer the data via portable hard drive? Or is there a driver I can install to fix the problem?

  AA

  Did you leave the 1 partition of 3 TB drive?  XP cannot 'see' as large partitions. It can 'see' up to 4 GB.  I would create a second partition 25% larger than the data on the XP machine by reducing the current partition and creating a new.

  The best way to proceed is to use EaseUS partition magic (free)
