Transfer Media Player on a hard drive external?

I run XP and bought an external hard drive to my music collection.  Is it possible to transfer the Media Player itself on the hard drive external?  I'd rather play on Media Player on those of the drive, that there is none.  Choose a record and that's all that you can play at the same time; No shuffle or several artists in one sitting.

Any suggestions, anyone?

There is no need to transfer WMP itself hard disk external, WMP can perfectly handle music on other players.

In WMP, please press F3 to display add it to the library, make sure that Advanced Options are displayed and add the folder music on the external hard drive in the list. Now, all the music on the hard drive will be added to the WMP library.

  • Transfer of pictures to a hard drive external

    What should I: 1) 13-inch aluminum end 2008 MAC 2) WD - My passport for MAC external hard drive

    Goal: Move my photos from my MAC to the external hard drive. Since I was 20K photos on my MAC, I think this place free (once I double, triple check everything works and then delete the photos on my MAC) on my MAC, improving performance.

    Given that the HD is already set up for a MAC, just do the HD MAC, drag the photo from the HD folder and let it do its thing?

    Thanks - Rob

    You drag it there, launch iPhoto, Aperture, or Photos with down option, click on another library for Photos, choose and keep a copy of it on an external drive then.

  • HARD drive external (E :) hangs and then said: "Not responding" when trying to backup.)

    Original title: backup on an external hard drive

    I'm trying to back up my files on an "External" hard drive It's me E: drive as the location, but it just hangs up there says "not responding". I tried to do an "Archive" in the "My Documents" folder, I saw files transfer, however all my names of my files are now blue in 'My documents' whatever that means? What drive letter should go a hard drive 'external '? I should be able to click on that drive and see what is on my external hard drive, but it doesn't "not responding"...

    External drive (E :) will not name until you give him one.  It is possible that the disk has not been formatted yet.

    Open disk management (start > run > diskmgmt.msc > OK).
    You will see something like this:

    You will have a line for 'Disk 2' but which shows next to your "disc 1". Please provide ALL information in the "Disk 1" line.

    For example, if you had the image above, the response from you I'm looking for would be:

    Ghost images (D :) - 93,13 GB NTFS - healthy (active))
    Data backup (E :) - 50,57 Go NTFS - healthy)

  • Trying to transfer files from an internal hard drive outside under XP

    I tried to transfer files and settings from hard drive to external hard drive.  The transfer seems to take place but the hard drive is always too full.  Please notify.

    Your question is vague, as others have mentioned.

    If you try to transfer a very large file (over 4 GB) and receive a message that there are not enough space on the external hard drive even if the external hard drive seems to have a lot of room, the reason is probably that your external drive is formatted using the FAT32 file system.  If you need help with this problem, please specify your original question.  Be sure to include the exact text of any error message, without paraphrasing.

    Do NOT format your external drive if there is already data on this topic.

    It is possible that you have removed the external device without using the option remove the device safely. Restart the machine and try again.

    Otherwise, you can remove all ports USB device manager and start option to add material on the list. After detection and installation it should work again.
