Unable to connect to external number of WD My Book essential model HD: WDBACW0010HBK

Original title: I have a number of WD My Book essential external model HD: WDBACW0010HBK

I recently bought an external hard drive from Western Digital. To make a long story short 2 things are bad.
The first is that it is not saved as part of the drive that I've assigned initially it. He was initially listed as E drive and now it's rising as drive K. I just recently changed it to Z and he remained on this drive so far. Then who is the most annoying is that it is no longer registered for longer then 30 seconds. It connects then it disconnects constantly. I tried to remove the files but I only got half of them and now it's so bad that he connects long enough to do something. in any case, I tried to update the firmware, do not access the external HD long enough to update. I tried another computer, he continued to have the same problems. Change the paths of access to something that would not be in conflict with other readers. Tried different usb ports, turned off the firewall and anti virus programs that slow down. I can't think anything else because I've been at this for 5 hours in a row, but I don't know that I did more.
The fundamental problem is that it reads, everything is still on the EHD, but it keeps connecting and disconnecting. I can get 1 file each time that in a while, but nothing big, otherwise it disconnects in the middle of the assignment.

Specifications of the computer
Windows 7 64 bit

Processor i5

Hello

I strongly suggest to try a new cable if it is not too much to get a new. I agree that the fact that this happens on several computers mean that there must be a flaw somewhere on the disk itself. I would contact the manufacturer to make sure you get the right cable.

  • Unable to connect 2 external monitors via the Port Replicator using Portege Z30 - 16U

    Hi all

    I need hell, I just moved from another laptop for Portege Z30 - 16U, I spent hours trying to connect my 2 external monitors to my Replicator Port Hi-Speed III 120W, but my laptop will see a monitor.

    I used 2 external monitors with my laptop for years because I do a lot or reading and I don't want to use the one and the laptop screen.

    I tried the mixture of a VGA and a HDMI and VGA cables, but nothing works.

    Can anyone tell me how I can connect and discover 2 external monitors with this laptop and port replicator, I can't believe that this is not possible, it makes no sense that Toshiba would then technilogically behind other laptop manufacturers.

    Thank you

    Liga

    Hello

    I'm not familiar with the Z30 Portreplicator, but the general behavior of the replicators of the double-displayconnector, is that 1 can be used.
    Not 2 simultaneously.

    I could be wrong, and you should easily be able to check it out - use only 1 at a time.
    First, then the other.
    If the two works when used alone, then my suspicion is right.

    I hope this helps!

  • Satellite P750 - unable to connect an external display via the VGA port

    Hi all

    My problem is the following:

    I tried to connect my P750 (running on W7 x-64) an external display using the VGA cable port. Unfortunately, these devices recognize my phone. Laptop does not recognize the external display, you can see in the graphics settings as additional display, but the screen shows "no signal".

    The computer always identifies the screen correctly, so it seems that there is communication from the screen to the PC, but not the reverse.

    This has been verified with 3 separate screens and television - still the same. All the screens work properly with the other PC.

    I already have:

    -try to play with FN + F5 / "windows" + buttons P - no change
    -install the latest drivers BIOS and video site Web from Toshiba - no change

    Suggestions how to operate? Is it possible that the VGA port is faulty?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    You have the same problems with a HDMI output port?
    Usually, you don't need to change anything to get the external monitor works.
    Press Fn + F5 several times until the monitor RGB (VGA) was selected
    Since you can choose an HDMI output too, you should pay attention to this option.

    Have you tried to change the resolution before using the Fn + F5?
    It s worth a try

    Last but not least, you could set the default BIOS (press F9 BIOS and save the changes by pressing F10). But I don't very well if the BIOS contains some parameters of port RGB (VGA) m

    A device can create only three accounts iCloud, after which still attempts to bring the message you see. This is related to the material and there is no way around it - reset makes no difference. What you can do is to create a new account iCloud on another Mac or iOS (not Windows) device, then you can sign in on your phone.

    Hi John,

    Thanks for the post. I understand that you are unable to connect the WD external drive.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will definitely help you with this.

    To help you suggest several steps to solve the problem, I would appreciate it if you could answer the following questions:

    1. you receive an error code or message?

    2. have you made any recent hardware or exchange of software on your computer before the show?

    3 have you tried to connect the external hard drive on another USB port?

    Please follow the methods and mark the question below:

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to run the Microsoft Fix It from the link below.

    Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us

    Method 2:

    Uninstall and reinstall the USB drivers.

    You can check after uninstalling and reinstalling USB drivers if you are able to connect. You can disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:

    a. Click Start and then click Control Panel.

    b. click System and Maintenance, click System and then click on Device Manager.

    Note: If the control panel is in Classic view, double-click System, and then click Device Manager.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

    c. in the Device Manager, double-click to expand the "USB Bus controllers", right click on the controller host, click "Uninstall" and click "OK".

    Check that if at all, there is an exclamation point on the pilot, it suggests problems with the installed driver.

    d. Repeat step 2 to uninstall all items under 'USB Bus controllers'.

    Then, restart your computer and Windows will automatically reinstall all USB controllers.

    Note: Connect USB devices to the computer once the drivers of conflict are uninstalled, and once the computer is restarted.

    If you are still having the same problem then you can check the device USB drivers updated using windows update.

  • At the opening of some Web pages I get a msg 'unable to connect to the server', but it works very well in startup

    The last few days during the use of the internet, some Web pages will not be not open. I get a msg of error saying 'unable to connect to the server', but it works very well with other sites such as Facebook and YouTube.  This happens when I use Safari, Firefox and Chrome.  Yet if I'm in Safe Boot mode it works fine.  I exaggerate the App installed VPN and when I am in normal mode and connect to the VPN exaggeration, all Web pages work correctly. I searched the net for days trying to find a solution but nothing I tried worked.  I'm not very computer savvy either so don't know much of what I do with this technical stuff.  I emptied the caches, but that did not work.  Following the advice of an answer to another question on this forum that was similar to mine, I went into the Terminal and performed a diagnostic test.  I don't understand all the information in this essay so hope someone here can decipher. The report is quite long, but this is the beginning of the pasted below.  Help, please!

    Hi AussieEgypt,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple.

    If a problem does not occur when it is started in safe mode, then you have already determined that the problem was isolated to a few 3rd party software running on your Mac.  Take a look at the information below to start with the removal of some elements of start-up and connection and see if the problem persists:

    Test your login items

    1. Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click users and groups.

    2. Click on your account under the current user name, and then click connection points.

      Make a list of the login items, you will need to remember later.

    3. Select all the elements of connection, and then click the button Delete .

    4. Choose the Apple menu > restart.

    5. If this solves the problem, reopen the preferences users and groups, add the elements of connection one at a time and restart your Mac after the addition of each of them.

      If the problem persists, follow the steps above to remove only the last element of connection that you added.

    OS X El Capitan: If you think you have incompatible connection points

    See you soon.

  • MacBook - problems to connect the external display w

    I do a lot of presentations (Keynote) to Mac external displays at events.

    The new MacBook (12 ") is quite often problems, so I have to carry a MacBookAir as back-up in case where.

    Problems can be no image at all, or two images (like 70% Keynote + 30% of office) and with spikes.

    It doesn't matter if I use HDMI or VGA. And Yes, I know how to set the resolution in the workplace sometimes that the problem is solved by adjusting the resolution manually, but then the Macbook can jump to the resolution which does not by itself during the slide show...

    I think that the problem only occurs when I have to go through a device such as a split, or when there is a lot of tech back stage.

Earlier this week he suddenly disconnected me and when I tried to log in again it showed this error "Unable to connect to the server of Skype." almost immediately after, I started signing in. I tried to reset the settings in Skype, my phone settings, I took out the battery and reset even WiFi. Then I tried to connect with a few other WiFis - still the same error.

    Or you can try and see on the repair of the system and then if your disk utility can

    See the Macintosh HD, as a boot volume, you could restart from OS X Recovery to

    the Mac system, to see if this solves the problem. There may be more than one cause.

    You could try and boot into OS X Recovery, utilities out there, and other options are available.

    This example uses a special partition on the hard drive of recovery which is not in the

    same disc that the Mac OS X section; However if your hard drive is missing, these other

    items may also be at risk. You must have and maintain backups of your duplicate content

    on the external storage drives closed; In addition, a Time Machine backup helps to restore.
