  • My Windows 7 does not recognize a new 3 TB WD My Book Studio external hard drive

    My Dell desk top running Windows 7 Home Premium and had an initial internal hard drive of 1.5 TB (7200 RPM) SATA. I am installing a 3 to Western Digital My Book Studio external hard drive, to store videos and photographs.

    I went into disk storage/computer/manage management. I can see the drive and it is marked as being "online". However, the system does not assign a drive letter to the disk.

    I can't find anything on the forum directly related to my problem it would be delighted to advice or assistance as to how I can solve this problem.

  • E3000 you see is not a WD MyBook for Mac 2 TB external hard drive

    Just bought a router from LinkSys e3000 and WD My Book for Mac (+ WD Smartware) in order to save my two MacBook Pro wireless.  The router works FINE for all other wireless and routing functions.

    Bottom line, the LinkSys Router cannot access external drive USB, the same scores if he can 'see' the reader. (By clicking 'claim' does nothing)

    This would have something to do with the functionality of ITS and drivers needed - since I can't add the drivers to the router.

    (1) valid router works by plugging an another WD MyBook essential 1 TB drive (PC version) and the routers sees several partitions.

    (2) worked with support technical LinkSys to check the router works with the journaled Mac partitions and the router worked as expected

    (3) added a FAT on my book Mac volume - still does not work with the router

    (4) plugged my book Mac directly on the MacBook Pro - works fine (actually a backup from two Mac Book Pro both 1 via USB direct connect)

    (5) off VCD - no luck on the router

    Can anyone provide a suggestion before I return this drive to WD?  I'm at my wits end.

    In addition, other that this problem with WD, I can highly recommend the LinkSys e3000.  Seriously HOT router with a huge flow.

    Yes... it's that I'm just understand! : smileymad:

    Please ask PD to put this future firmware support on the list for improvements.  I love the router, but really miss you a market of large target with this omission.

    It is closed for me.   Thank you!

  • What are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes game against external hard drive, Solid State etc. to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

    First question: what are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes Match against Solid State external hard drive etc to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

    Please let me know what are the alternatives for storage of my songs, playlists, song etc. other than iTunes game ratings ($ 24.99 / year)?  Is there a way to store all my songs with my song ratings, playlists, etc. with a CD song quality? Most of my (currently 130 GB) songs on my computer are CD quality that I prefer to keep as well as my notes of each song (i.e. 5 * vs. 4 * etc.), playlists, groups (music, classical, popular, country etc.).  What are the advantages and disadvantages to store my iTunes songs while CD quality with my personal notes, reading lists, groupings in the cloud?  ICloud of Apple Drive ($ 2.99 per month or $36 / year for 200 GB) would be the best way to automatically update and maintain my rankings iTunes personal including the future editions of the song etc or using Amazon, IBM, Microsoft etc cloud or an external hard drive SSD would work as well and maybe cheaper?  I currently have my iTunes on a PC of 2007 with vista (I use a 1 8T Western Digital external upward by car for my personal info all over HP, songs, photos etc. which is currently close to 170 GB) but also have an Apple i-phone 6 & I Air cushion.  Although I did not need to have all of my music with all their sides, etc. available on all of my devices at all times as iTunes game, I still would have easy access to information on both my PC and my iPhone or iPad?  Thank you.

    In my opinion?

    I back up my data to an external drive for several reasons.  The first is my data - if I put on the cloud, someone else has control over it, they can see what I have and change the preferences to what they see of marketing.

    Almost as important as that - if I had to rely on the cloud whenever I wanted to update my playlists on my phone, I need a better internet connection I have now (working at sea).  To get the best out of the cloud, you need a solid link to home, work or mobile.

    As a spin-off - I hate the fact that Apple take away a feature in their software updates and then allow an app to be sold in their store to replace this feature - or worse still, some features that were available before the updates are now "cloud only."  And Yes - you have to pay for the cloud.  I like most of the people do not appreciate the 'accomplished fact. "

    From the back of the external hard drive ASI downside, is that to be safe, you need to store outside in a separate computer place.  If keep you them together, if one is lost, probably, they are both.  That is to say for me a full backup before you travel, then a new upward as soon as I go home.  Downside is how much data may be lost between the two back ups if I needed to restore.  For me, its worth the risk.  If I was away and say had bought a ton of new music and couldn't go home anytime soon, I can always head to the store and buy a new external drive, they are massively expensive.  Even if my computer has to go for repair and my remote is to halfway around the world - I want to buy a new one.

    Now, some will say that once you buy a new external, you spend more than you would on a cloud subscription.  It's true, but in the 6 years following the purchase of Mac that I've only had to buy a new external once - so with a little luck and planning - it works.

    I left took well - I am not a subscriber of cloud, nor do I want to be.

  • Error message with (PX1394E - 3 50) external HARD drive

    I have a 500 GB external hard drive, Code: PX1394E - 3 50.

    I work perfectly until now that I have a bug in Windows XP that says "has exceeded the capacity of the hub port", although blue light turns on the hard drive and leave the mistake of putting the USB hard drive to the computer. I've tried different USB ports and well past, I tested these USB ports with other devices and whether they work, the USB ports are 2.0 and Windows XP SP3.

    HM, I recommend you to send the drive to an authorized service provider because it sounds like a hardware problem. Maybe the controller in the external hard drive has certain shortcomings.

  • Can I use CC with pictures on an external hard drive?

    I bought Adobe CC and my images are just now in the photos on a Mac. I've never used photo (used opening), but when the upgrade to Yosemite to El Capitan Aperture was more consistent. I have a lot of images, I should Adobe CC a link to the images that I copy on an external hard drive or keep them on the Mac. Totally confused.

    You can put your photos in any folder... just you know that you can "confuse" the program if you disconnect the external hard drive

  • What is an I / Q error? This occurs with the backups using external hard drive SeaGate

    We have two external hard drives; a 3Terabyte (don't know how it) Seagate and another whose name escapes me. On the Seagate, I get the message: backup did not complete due to I / Q error. What is I / Q error and how to fix this? If all goes well, not a complicated process.

    Thanks for any help. Hope I selected the areas to fix this, below.

    Fred, SR.

    Win7 64 bit, Office 2010

    Hello

    I assumed that by I / Q error you mean error e/s? Run chkdsk on the drive Seagate:

    Start > Search bar > type cmd right click and select run as administrator

    High CMD should now be open, type the following:

    CHKDSK x: /r

    x involves the reader of your letter, so if your hard drive in question is the letter c, it would be:

    CHKDSK c: /r

    Restart the system and allow to run chkdsk.

    Kind regards

  • Transfer the library to new MBP of old MBP with music on an external hard drive

    I bought a new MBP a few months ago and have not had time to properly set up immediately. I finally get to it and have met some problems with my iTunes library transfer and re-use of my music files on an existing external drive. I always kept my music files on a separate drive in order to keep the laptop drive as empty as possible for other tasks.

    News old MBP:

    OS x 10.6.8

    iTunes 11.4

    Library was on the hard drive of the MBP

    Music files were on an external drive, called 'LACIE_MINI '.

    New Intel MBP:

    10.10.5 OSX

    iTunes 12.3.2.35

    I copied the old iTunes library to the same location on the new MBP and he watched the iTunes. Load library very well however, even if the LACIE_MINI drive is connected to the laptop, the files cannot be located in iTunes. When looking for the location of the file under 'Get Info', it points to the correct place (file://localhost/Volumes/LACIE MINI/music //) but it won't "find" and play the audio file.

    To make things a touch more confusing to me, I bought a WD MyCloud NAS with the intention that she be host store all my files music and video. My goal was to eliminate the need to always have my external plugged in when you work with iTunes. I don't know what is the reliability of this facility would be.

    From there, I have a few questions:

    1 when your stay with my files on my external and do not use the SIN, how I have it properly locate all the music files?

    2. who is the most reliable way to access my music? Through the plugged in external or NAS?

    3. should I do to keep my music on my external and load from there or make use of the NAS?

    Thank you

    K

    I copied the old iTunes library to the same location on the new MBP

    You copied into the folder full of the record of the music user account from the old Mac to the same location on the new Mac iTunes ?

    I noticed that the external drive is named LACIE_MINI on old Mac.  The new Mac, in the path of the song file, he says LACIE MINI with no underscore between the words.  Is it a typing mistake in your post or the real difference?

    For your other questions, a directly connected external drive is more reliable and faster, as the location of your iTunes media files.

  • Organization of the photo to Mac for the external hard drive

    I recently had the Mac portable, Air and noticed that the iPhotos can organize my photos by location, date, etc.  I really like it and would like to get all my pictures in a folder like this.  I also really like the faces feature because I can attribute name tags to faces and then discovered just one person, if I want to.  How do I get all my photos that exceed the amount of my hard drive space Mac Air.

    It cannot be done in iPhoto, but you can easily create an iPhoto library on a disk external to the Mac OS extended (journaled) format and directly connected to your Mac.

  • Windows does not load on a Satellite A350 with 500 GB Seagate external HARD drive

    There is a problem with this laptop, A350-043 running Vista Edition Windows Home Premium 64 bit, part number: PSAL6C - 04S 015

    In other words: when it is connected to a 9NK2AL-510 SEAGATE 500 GB SATA DRIVE EXTERNAL USB (s/n: 5QG1YH1E) Windows will not load, it will up to and gel just before the green movement of the bar. If the USB cable is released and handed over in a second, Windows continues to load normally and all is well.

    Otherwise, the operating system will have up to 15 minutes to load. Looking in the BIOS features, there is no option to boot from USB available, so it can not be disabled. I have updated the BIOS of Toshiba to the latest version without any change in this issue.

    I tested and confirmed that the problem persists no matter what USB port is used.
    The external drive is fully functional, and there is no error or problems with it loading Windows. I reported this problem to Seagate so that Toshiba in the hope that a solution can be offered on this, but has not heard back on anything either yet.

    Do you mean that the laptop needs 15 minutes to load the Windows operating system, even if the external HARD disk is not connected?
    It sounds weird, and I doubt that this can be related to any software problem

    First of all, you should check the boot order in the BIOS the USB should be set at the last or last position.
    Second, you should check if the same problem persists even after a fresh install of the OS in some cases, that the start-up procedure could be affected due to the process software and installed background.

    But if the new installation of the operating system is not enough and if the issue persists then I guess a hardware problem (motherboard?) could be the reason for that and, therefore, a technician of the laptop must be contacted!

    That s in my opinion
