  Hello

  I'll try to provide answers.
  > I wanted to record video data on D: and was surprised to find some hdd files and folders reverie about it.
  The same situation is on all laptops come with HARD drive recovery image. Recovery image is saved in the folder called HDDRecovery. It is recommended to create recovery DVDs using the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator. When the recovery DVD is created, you can delete these files and use of recovery DVDs for the operating system installation.
  Otherwise the partitions are large enough, and you should leave this file here. Just define it as hidden and you won't.
  > Again, I have a small partition hidden and thought that hard drive recovery waas on that.
  This small partition has nothing to do with the Toshiba recovery image. Recovery image Toshiba is large enough and cannot be saved on small partition.
  > When restart us computer after pressing F8, is associated with the files to D: or hidden partition recovery option.
  They are related to the folder HDDRecovery and recovery stored image. When you delete drive recovery option HARD is no longer available.

• How can I make a DVD of the restore hidden in my external hard drive partition recovery

  How can I make a DVD of the restore hidden in my external hard drive partition recovery because I want to recover my toshiba satellite L840 that does not respond directly to my hard drive so I put my laptop to an external HARD drive and then I want to copy a DVD recovery partition

  Your question is a bit confusing, you can boot the laptop at all? Have you tried booting in safe mode, you can make a recovery DVD set from there, the folder Toshiba.

  With the drive in the Toshiba, you should be able to use a F, F10, F11, or F12 key to activate the installation from the partition hidden started upward.

  Otherwise, you can contact Toshiba, and with the model of the product id number and the laptop for Windows, you can buy a set of disks.

• How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

  Keep all image files both places?

  What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

  Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

  As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

  As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

  Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

• Transfer iTunes library to a new external hard drive.

  I did a few years back, but as for the double control procedure to ensure I would correctly.

  My iTunes music library is stored on an external hard drive. It's almost to capacity, if I want to transfer the files from current music on an external hard drive more.

  I don't want to "lose" my preferences iTunes, settings etc that I have playlists, ratings and other data.

  I understand that the first thing is physical copy music files to the new external hard drive.

  What is the procedure to then "point" to the new hard drive.

  Thank you.

  Copy the iTunes folder whole, not only the media, on the external drive, launch iTunes with the Option key, choose this library and keep a backup on a different drive of it.

• I can't initialize the disk for my new external hard drive

  I can't initialize the disk for my new external hard drive because the drop-down list in the Disk Management Console does not give me this option. I'm logged in as an administrator and running Windows XP.  The driver for the new hardware is not digitally signed because I can't initialize the disk.  So I can't get my new hardware to run.  Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get the option "Initialize disk" in the Disk Management Console?

  Hello Honduras1,

  Can you simply right-click and format everything first?  The drive must be formatted before use, make sure that you format NTFS.

  See you soon

• external hard drive partition copy

  I have an external hard addrtiion to my computer.  I have a disc managerment that allows me to copy partitions.  If I copy the partion on my internal hard drive and stick it in my outside, is that I gave two fully functional WIndows XP now. If Windows crashes I'll be able to start on the external hard drive?

  And even ewrase and reformat the drive internal and copy the my external hard drive4 patition.   Indeed, never lose Winows XP and all my programs installed again?   Or is it simply a desire that can really be achieved.

  Your program has the ability to create a partition bootable (what is the name of the program)?
  If your program has the ability to clone, then this is the way to go if you want just an exact replacement for your internal drive, if a problem occurs catastrophic. A better option would be an imaging program that allows you to create images of your internal drive like this at some point. In this way, if you have a regular image, say twice a month, so you can fit maybe three or four images on the same drive that you want to clone in. A cloned disk must be the same size or larger that the drive is cloned. An image is compressed and takes less space.

• The external hard drive partitioning

  Can Hello: Anyone help me with a beginner?

  I have a 3 to external hard drive that I want to score in three volumes of 1 TB. But every time I try to use DiskPart it divides the first partition in a 2 TB and from there I can not extend it. When I cut it up to 1 TB it gives me two volumes, K and L, but then I can't expand the volume of L. It's all leaving me with 746 GB unallocated I can't use.  Is in anyway possible of this Dove upward from the way I want?

  You must convert the GPT disk. Delete all partitions, right-click on the gray area on the left and select "convert to GPT disk.

• external hard drive partition removal

  WD external hard drive has bought recently.  He had a factory partion and I can't remove it.  Disk management I tried and do me not (as an administrator) to remove it.  I can change the drive letter, but not anymore.  It shows up as a CD drive. but this is not a cd.  I have not installed the factory program that came with the disk that is on this partition (665 mb).  Rather I copied information from the computer to the disk manually (I know not so old school).  I want the missing drive, but have failed so far.  Probably should have formatted drive until I copied the data on it, but too late now (it took 8 hours to copy all the data).

  Help?

  Hello foxman24,

  The partition you make reference to contains the WD SmartWare software. So you can successfully unlock your drive on each computer that you connect to. If you do not use SmartWare and do not want this virtual CD you can disable it by following these instructions: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=YJvBcl
  Hope that helps.

• Historical files Windows 8 will not recognize the new external hard drive

  I just bought a new laptop (Sony Vaio) with Windows 8Pro (System op 64-bit, Intel I7, 1THD).  One of the reasons is that I have approached Win8, is I liked the concept of the new 'File History' backup utility  I started to use the computer with an ext WD My Guide of the HD and the history of the files seemed to work.  Then the drive external hard went wrong and I just bought a new WD My Passport 2 t ext HD.  Historical files will not recognize this drive.  He keeps asking the old drive.  When I attached the new drive and go to the screen "Select drive", it says "no usable drives are detected.  Please connect a drive... "I know that the drive is there because I see under 'My computer' and I can copy files to it.  But the history of the files do not recognize.  WD, I called and they helped me to update drivers and even made a update firmware on the drive, but nothing is done.  I tried several fixes suggested in a few links Microsoft 'how file history works... '. «, «What to do if the file history works more...» ", etc, but all without success. The tech also remote BestBuy Geek squad my computer and tried EVERYTHING and could not get it to succeed.  BTW, it's not the HD post because put us on another computer to WIN 8 and Hx file found immediately.  Tech people thought that it was a deep registry with Win 8 problem and their only suggestion was to reimage my computer with the original recovery disk.  But who is going to cost me an arm and a leg.

  I'm not very tech savvy, so I know there must be something very simple, I'm do wrong or overlooking and I hope that some dear soul on this forum or someone from Microsoft can give me an idea or two.  Thank you very much

  I was having this same problem, but then noticed a presentation text easy to miss in the historical files tool that says that the disc "cannot be a part of a library" or something like that. In my case, I had files on my external hard drive that have been included in several libraries... and none that I really used, so I removed the files (and deleted the libraries for good measure). A fast system restart later, and my player does not appear.

  I don't know why MS did not propose it again for this thread as the more obvious thing to check, but there you have it. Something simple and quick to check that could save you some frustration.

• I bought a new external hard drive, but it does not appear in the library mode.

  One of my external hard drives is almost full. I would like to move some of the photos from the old to the new one that I just bought. The new external drive appears in Windows Explorer, but does not appear in Lightroom.

  I use Windows 7 and Lightroom CC.

  Hi Loyce1023,

  In order to see the most recent external drive in Lightroom, you must either import some images of the most recent disc.

  Or move some images of the old drive to the more recent, outside of Lightroom, and then reconnect the images from Lightroom.

  Kind regards
