• The data stored on the external hard drive recovery

  Hello

  Recently, my PC got corrupted and told me to save my data on an external hard drive before doing a reformat on my PC. In fact, all my data was saved when I update. A few months ago, in may 2014, I backed up my data in the drive C under the section 'My Document ' and also registered in my external hard drive as a backup. Thus, in June, July & the first 2 weeks of August 2014, I updated some data and stored in the 'My documents' file in the C drive. My PC got corrupted last week and told me to do a reformat as a last resort. Before that, I saved all my data (especially my Word & Excel) for my external hard drive to the file 'My Document '. After that the reformatting was made, I downloaded all required applications and try to remove my Excel file, which has the external hard drive, but the data were NOT the updated file, but the file that has been saved 3 months ago!

  So, how can I recover my file up to date which was recorded August 12, 2014, supposedly on my external hard drive, or could it be hidden somewhere in the "C drive"?

  Help, please!

  Thank you!

  Kind regards

• Operating system on the new hard drive recovery

  Hello

  The hard drive of my Satellite 1900 303 hangs almost (SMART), and the warranty has expired.

  Thanks in advance,

  Hi Randy

  You can do it. Features of the different operating system Toshiba tools don t depend on HARD drive.

  Change the HARD drive and install the OS using the Toshiba Recovery CD. This will work. If you have any problems please write again.

  Hi all

  When I connect my external hard drive to my laptop, it is detected and the icon for the material appears in the taskbar background. But when I go to my computer, it happens that does not. I can always open other programs etc that are not related to the hard drive, but nothing to do with the hard drive "fails". As soon as I plug it on, the laptop starts responding again. I tried it on another laptop and the same thing happens.

• IPhoto on the external hard drive will not launch despite the force quit and relaunch several times. Can someone help me?

• IPhoto migration from an external drive: stuck with hard links to the external hard drive

  I got my IPhoto library on an external drive. To migrate to pictures, I dragged the IPhoto (on the external hard disk) file to the Photos icon.

  Migration went well, but instead of importing data to the external hard drive to my macbook, Photos stored links on the external drive. Now whenever I start the Photos, the system tells me it takes the external drive to view the contents of the library.

  To resolve this problem, I tried to copy my IPhoto library on my macbook and redo the import. It does not work: Photos, said the library has been upsized already (I noticed that the IPhoto library has been renamed 'iPhoto Library.migratedphotolibrary')

  Is it possible to reverse the migration or mark the IPhoto library as not yet migrated? Any other suggestions?

  Thanks for your help!

  Rename the copy of the iPhoto library on your internal drive to 'iPhoto Library.photolibrary '.  Then drag the library renamed on the Photos icon and pictures will create a new photo library on your internal drive.

• Dual-boot Windows XP is installed on the external hard drive

  My computer has Windows XP and Windows 7 installed. I added a hard drive with Windows XP is already installed on the computer.

  In order to access additional hard drive, I need to change the priority of the hard drive in the BIOS.

  Is it possible to add a boot option to the Boot Manager screen so that I can boot from the additional hard disk without modifying the BIOS settings?

  First of all, to the best of my knowledge you should not change anything in the bios to access the external drive.

  Second, if Xp has not been installed on the external hard drive while the drive is connected to the computer in question it will not be loaded. Simply, it does not work like that. Even if you install Windows on the outside when it is connected to your computer, I don't think it must configure the boot.ini file, giving you the ability to dual boot when the computer is turned on. You can boot from the external drive provided however your bios supports booting from a usb key. I think that to accomplish what you want, you will need to remove the hard drive of the external envelope and attach it to your computer using an eSATA cable. Then it will be recognized as a regular system disk.

  You can copy and paste the files on your external hard drive.

  Right-click your folder of the image and choose copy...

  Right-click on the drive letter for your external hard
  drive and choose Paste.

  You can also right click on some files or folders and
  in the menu... Choose... Send to..., then select the

  FWIW... the external hard disk file system
  must be NTFS if the files larger than 4 GB will be

• Operating system and the new hard drive

  I have a question:

  I have a HP a4302f - with stock specifications:

  A computer virus has little or nothing to do with a hard disk crash. Please include the exact error messages and/or screens that remains stuck on the computer.

  A 500 GB hard drive at 7200 RPM SATAII should run around $ 45 to $ 70, and the operating system can range from $ 0 to $ 30 depending on exactly how handle you the situation.

  Is that what you had created your HP recovery disc set staff when you first set up your computer, you would be able to return the computer to a factory State even with a new hard drive. Since it does not appear that you have created these disks, you must buy a set of HP recovery disks or disk installation of operating system with COA and product key. None of these methods should work as expected and you will leave with an operating system on the new hard drive.

  You can order a set of discs of HP recovery directly from HP or third-party ComputerSurgeons.com. Purchase of a full blown Windows OS is not really necessary and you can actually download the Windows operating system to use with the key already on the side of your computer. For a hard drive, look at Frys.com Newegg.com, Amazon.com, etc.
