• Synchronize folders with an external hard drive.

  Can anyone help? I want to be able to sync my library and office with an external hard drive (Freecom on USB) files.  The goal is to be able to maintain an up to the minute backup of all my files, so that the next time my hard drive failure I have to absolutely all backed up. I am aware that that is not only the problem of accidental deletion of files so periodically I will also manually save the backup to a different folder on the same hard drive, or is it also possible to get windows to schedule this backup type automatically)? Or y at - it another way to achieve this level of security of the files without a mirror raid arrays (or spend more money on hardware or software)?

  Try this:

• I've just backed up with an external hard drive for the first time, but my profile with my folders for photos, documents, and movies are not there

  Hello

  So, I finally got an external hard drive. I formatted for Mac (the device has been verified as being correct), and then he started to do a backup, which stated that a full backup would take 95GB. However, it only supported 19GB.  When I have my 'open' backup drive, I saw that only 'Macintosh HD' received support upward, not my user profile with all my folders containing documents, photos, movies, etc...

  I'm quite confused, because I thought that it would save.  I plan on Snow Leopard update to El Capitan, but if something is wrong or I don't like, I'm afraid that I won't be able to restore all my personal files - but only the applications that are on my Macintosh HD.

  Should I delete everything in my backup disk and try again?

  This is an image of what's inside my external hard drive:

  

  You have not indicated how you have saved, if you've used Time Machine then you do things the hard way and you'll find very difficult TM. Please use the Time Machine interface to locate your saved data. You can benefit from the research on:

• Back-Up * two * computers with * a * external hard drive?

  I have a Dell desktop computer and a laptop 6358.   Vista on the laptop, XP the other.

  I would buy an external hard drive and use it to back up the two systems.

  Is it not just possible, but easy to use?  I don't want a fancy coding project, as I am just a user

  Other tips suggest it may be better to just get two separate drives, but I thought I would seek some straight dope here in the world of HP.

  Thanks in advance.

  If the drive supports USB 2.0, then're you good to go.  If you need to save a file that is greater than 2 GB, then you can benefit with eSATA if taken in charge by your PC.  If you have up to 500 MB of data, then USB 2.0 would be an acceptable compromise.  Remember that the speed of transfer of files more small piles is much slower than a large file.  That's why I like to put important data in a partition logic extendend separate on the same hard drive and use an imaging program to back up this partition on CD, DVD, or another hard drive.  The result is a compressed image unique record about 1/2 the size of the source partition.

• Windows 7 and problems with my external hard drives

  I have 2 Lacie (Big Disk Extreme) 1 TB external hard drive attached to my desktop system.

  When I press the Start button and go to devices and printers, the "yellow icons exclamation point warning" are located next to each external hard drive icon.

  Right click on each hard drive icon and going to solve problems, I learned that for each hard drive drivers are missing.

  When I let Windows 7 try 'Apply this difficulty', it is failed every time.  It is said that it cannot search the drivers of these drives.

  Go directly to the site Lacie, there are no drivers to download for these external hard drives (which are around 18 months of age).

  What gives?  How can I get Windows 7 to stop warning me of these external hard drives?  I don't remember having to download all the drivers for these external hard drives when I was with Windows Vista.

  Help!

  Try this...  I found a solution now using Partition Wizard Home Edition 4.2, - its free, then open it to find readers and by assigning a different letter on the external drive - Bingo... applying the changes the disk with the icon is displayed in the pane of the computer and I am able to open the drive!

• Best version of older iTunes to a cell phone with big external hard drive?

  I have a Dell Inspiron 1520 (circa 2007), I would like to use with my stereo to serve music from an external hard drive 1 TB.  The Dell has an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5250 @ 1.5 Ghz and 2.00 memory of concert, with Windows 7 (64 bit) operating system.  You want to keep software compatible with the vintage of the material but with enough ability to index a concert music library 500 +.  It is a standalone function for this machine.  What version of iTunes would go faster on this hardware and still have the ability to manage a large playlist?

  Thank you.

  The latest version of iTunes (12.3.2) should be fine.  My only concern would be the one with 2 GB of memory you pouvez experience some performance issues with an important library (where the key factor is the number of items in the library rather than the disk storage they occupy).  Additionally, you may experience glitches reading occasional and/or slow when responses to changes in your library if the connection of the laptop and external hard drive USB2.0 rather than 3.0, especially if current to run a web browser or other applications in resources at the same time.

  However, earlier versions of iTunes are not likely to be significantly different in their behavior or performance (and some, indeed, could be worse).  My main iTunes system is a desktop Dell of the same vintage (though with hard drives and power supply replaced in the past two years)-running Windows 10 Pro 32 - bit with 4 GB of memory (3.25 GB usable) and works fine with the latest version of iTunes.

  I would certainly recommend ensuring that your library is all about external drive (see time user turingtest2 on do a split cell library for more information) and that you create and maintain an up-to-date backup of it (see backup your iTunes for Windows with SyncToy library).

• How can I change the icon associated with an external hard drive that is displayed in my computer

  When I double click the icon my computer on my Seagate external desktop hard drive does not display the correct icon. It displays a blank page with the upper right handed with a superimposed replica of a small screen.  I really want to show an icon that looks like the real thing as stated in the icons folder.

  Hi PhilipRoebuck,

  (1) do you get an error message when you try to open the external hard drive?
  (2) where there are changes to the computer before the question?
  (3) is confined to a specific icon?
   
  See the following:
  Method 1:
  Icons change incorrectly in Windows

• How can I change the icon associated with an external hard drive in XP?

  I had to reformat etc and when settled dust that I can not put an icon on my external hard drive from seagate 1 t. It's not bad but it drives me crazy because it seems that it does not...

  Using Notepad, create a file with the following content

  [autorun]
  ICON = localpath\iconfile

  Save the file as autorun.inf (be sure to set "Save as type" in the drop-down list for "All Files" box).

  • IconFile is a file with the file extension ico icon.
  • LocalPath is the file (or folder and subfolder, etc.), without a drive designation.  So, for example, if there is a folder in the root of the named Seagate external drive, and you have an icon named seagate.ico file, the line in your autrorun.inf file would be:

  Icon = Seagate\seagate.ico

  Note that the square brackets in the first line should be included
  The autorun.inf file is usually a hidden, but making it so is yours.

• computer a824n of office doesn't start with an external hard drive 2T connected.

  My HP Pavilion a824n desktop computer won't start with my new external hard drive 2T connected via a USB port.  The computer stops on the first screen, which I think is the Intel screen, with options for press ESC, F1, F10.  But these keys do nothing.  The only way out is to press the power button until the computer turns off.

  If I disconnect the external drive before turning the power on, the computer starts normally, the internal hard drive.  After that, I can connect from the outside and it works correctly, so I don't think that there is a defect in it.

  I can get into the screen of the BIOS settings to start with the external drive disconnected and by pressing the F8 key.  But the BIOS shows adequate priority, with the hard drive screen internal first, second DVD, third CD.  The internal hard drive is correctly identified by the model number and the new external drive is not at all (because I started without the connected external.)

  My guess is that when I start with connected externally, BIOS thinks it's the hard drive, it is supposed to boot from.  How can I get the machine to boot from the internal drive?

  Your guess is correct. The hard part is that I'm not sure of an exact solution I've seen this be something difficult to solve.

  Have you tried to update the firmware of an external drive?

  Have you updated your PC BIOS? If you are still running XP, I think that it is the update to the BIOS of your PC:

• I use Lightroom with an external hard drive?

  I have my Lightroom Catalog and photos stored on an external hard drive. When I try to import photos from my camera card into the Lightroom Catalog I get this message "could not open the lightroom catalog called Catalog Lightroom because it is too new to be used by this version of Lightroom." I have Lightroom 5.7.1 and uses a Macbook pro. Should I be storing my LR catalog on my laptop and not the external hard drive?

  Hi robinbeaton,

  Greetings!

  Should I be storing my LR catalog on my laptop and not the external hard drive?

  You can save the Lightroom catalog on your laptop and the external drive.

  But storing on the external drive is only useful if you access Lightroom with catalog even on other computers too.

  "Could not open the lightroom catalog called Catalog Lightroom because it is too new to be used by this version of Lightroom.

  Do you have you installed or used Lightroom before 6/cc?

  This error appears when you try to open 6/cc Lightroom Catalog Lightroom 5.

  Kind regards

  I have the 4540 s if an external hard drive is connected, it will not start.

  I have the internal hard drive set as master boot.

  The message that appears indicates Press esc, to enter the boot options, but which does nothing.

  I spent an hour with hp support-useless.

  I did a BIOS update - no help.

  All advice appreciated.

  Not sure what you mean about the reference of the warehouse.

  I've updated the USB ports and that solved the problem.

  Thanks for the reply.

• Performance issue with an external HARD drive

  Hi all

  I wish you all a happy new year and good luck for 2008

  I have a performance problem with a HARD drive: 3.5 inch USB 2.0 HDD with Alu - case. (320 GB of capacity)
  The average copy files is about 470 KB/Sec.

  When I connect the external HARD drive to my laptop (for any USB port), I have a ToolTip message: "this device can perform faster - this USB device can be faster if you connect it to a USB 2.0 port. I can assure you, my computer laptop USB USB 2.0 port.

  I conneted my drive external HARD to both PC and I have the same ToolTip message: "this device can perform faster - this USB device can be faster if you connect it to a USB 2.0 port.

  Is this problem known to you?
  I think the problem is in the firmware of the external HARD drive.

  + Other ++ information: +.

  + OS: Windows XP Pro SP2 +.
  + USB port all tested are USB 2.0 +.
  + HARD drive divided on 4 logical drives.
  + Antivirus: Symantec. I had test with and without my antivirus. +
  + I have had this problem for 3 weeks and before that I had no problem. +

  Hello

  I got the same info after the connection of a digital camera.
  The same message appears in the taskbar. I simply disbled this message;
  In Device Manager, click the USB host controller, click the Advanced tab, and then check the box at the bottom of the window that says don't tell me about USB errors.

  You must do this for each USB controller listed under USB in Device Manager, so that the error message no no matter which controller is used.

  I goggled for this + this device can perform faster + and got many successes. It seems that this is not a hardware problem, but simply a problem of operating system software

  That s all I can suggest
