  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.

• Could not import on an external drive

  Recently, when I try to import photos to save to an external drive, it did not work. The import process seems to pass very quickly and then the file numbers are numbered with an error message. I can import fine on the internal hard drive and then move the files to the external drive. It only started happening. Any ideas?

  Yes indeed, "cannot be read' is a WRITE permissions problem.

  You did not check the permissions of the appropriate folder. You select PHOTOS 2015 as destination folder in Lightroom, and then you check the folder 2015 (another name) for permissions.

• PS CS6 unable to save png or jpg two errors

  Since the update I downloaded for PS CS6 yesterday, I was unable to save my file psd to png or jpg even with a single layer. Two error messages I get are "unable to save the file out of memory" and unable to save file "insert a drive and location here" because the file is not found. I have 4 drives every step still half full. Two 4 gig flash drives not even half full, the scratch disk is assigned to the least used drive.

  How do I roll back PS to its previous state?

  Joni

  It has no rollback option. You will need to run the creative cloud cleaning tool and reinstall. And savings directly to Flash drives isn't the best ideas first. The file IO might kill you. Your USB bus has only limited transfer rates...

• Cannot save files on an external drive because of "errors of window 82.

  Product name and number: HP Pavilion 6000 series BV601AA #ABA

  Operating system: Windows 7 Edition Home Premium 64-bit

  Error message: Unable to copy the file 'C:\Users\hp\Music\Master File\Johnny Hates Jazz - My Secret Garden.mp3' to "J:\Music\Music Backups\Johnny Hates Jazz - My Secret Garden.mp3.ffs_tmp".

  Windows 82 error code: the directory or file cannot be created.

  Changes before the problem has occurred: Some files may be damaged due to repeated power outages in which the system could not start correctly, or stop before losing power.

  Description: I'm trying to save a very large collection of music on an external hard drive so that if something happens to my computer, I have a back up from which to restore. I am using a free program called FreeFileSync, to start to do incremental backups of my music collection on the external drive as it grows. When I used it first, he copied about 15,000 of the 20 000 files without problem. However, for other files 5 000 or more, I was not able to due to "Windows Error 82. As by chance, I get an error from iTunes that tells me that the iTunes library file is not able to save, and I wonder if it can be related to the above problem.

  Other concerns: I tried browsing over the internet a response to this problem without much luck.  Some resources suggest using a registry cleaner, which I've tried without any effect. Other resources suggest using programs such as pc cleaner pro, and reimage.com, which I assume is intended to solve the problems of hard drive. However, almost all programs I've read on this subject might work, cost money which I'd rather not spend if there is a free solution. I am also afraid that if I paid for one of these types of programs they may not necessarily even solve my problem, and then I'm out of some species and still with my original problem. Someone at - it suggestions?

  No, in fact after looking around the answers in the other fourms, I found is that the external drive I was support until the problem in shape. I was doing backups on a disk that has been formatted in FAT32. My problem has been resolved on the reformat in NTFS.

• Unable to open external drive XLSX files

  Hello

  I have a macbook El Capitan having installed Office 365, with the latest version of excel running. Recently, I have been unable to open excel (.xlsx) files from my external hard drive because it gives me a message stating that it is corrupt and offering a repair option - which also fails. I can however;

  -Open the same file on a windows PC 10

  -Open the file in numbers

  -Open any other file on the hard drive (document images, PDFs, Word etc.) in native mode without any problem

  -C' is essential, I can copy the file to the desktop and it opens in Excel without any problem.

  I am at a loss of what it might be.

  Thank you

  (my apologies if this is in the wrong section)

  It seems that there is a problem with the Mac from Microsoft Excel version, opening files from an external drive. Looks like a Microsoft problem that should be reported to them.

• How can I save my data/sytem on an external drive?

  The system is Microsaft XP with DELL 8400 system

  If you just want to save your important documents, then drag and drop them on your external drive.  A crash should then reinstalled Windows and applications from your original install discs [finally] followed by a copy of the data from your external drive.

  If you want to completely recover to a point in time should crash your machine, then you need a backup image-style program.  Are examples of this type of backup is Norton Ghost, Acronis True Image, and if you want freeware, Clonezilla.

• Unable to download a driver for an external drive Seagate - ST3160318AS.

  My PC Device Manager recognizes the newly installed hardware, install a driver but all attempts have failed. No installation CD is provided with this unit. I am inclined to believe the necessary software pre-installed, but the reader will show it, or give it up.
  The diagnostic analysis results indicate that all is well with the drive. It recently bought [yesterday] 'External Drive' sits like a useless piece with her running light 'on' and unusable for the lack of a "Driver".

  THANK YOU EVERYONE IN MY ABOVE DILEMMA - please read on:

  After reading a lot of articles and messages from the Forum on this issue, as well as information provided by the seller, I discovered the main cause of my pain was "Malware" by the name of "RESEARCH of CLARO", who himself had included in my browser and taken control through it's own 'Toolbar '. I also quite false information on the hard drive of my PC through many "blue screens". Now, I understand the import of the term 'Blue Screen of Death'.

  I was unable to uninstall this rogue program that he was not on my list of "Add/Remove Programs". Nor can it be found anywhere on my OS' it Drive in the lists of Documents and settings or Program Files. I stayed at loss as to how to remove the malicious program until I came across a list of my 'Cookies' PC on which were four entries that included "Claro". As soon as these have been removed, my computer is back to character, recognized the Seagate external hard drive and the appropriate screen is appeared on the screen after that was revealed the "dashboard" which allowed for the programming of the backup of 13.3 GB of data on the internal drive which eventually ended without incident.

  So, now, all right and if I never see Claro again it must be too early.

  Thank you, Ray.

  Hi Russ,

  Thanks for posting your question in the community of Microsoft Windows.

  From the description of the problem, it seems that you can not save the settings of the wireless connection to a flash drive.

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I'll help you fix the problem.

  I suggest save wireless settings using Netsh commands to export a profile wireless existing to a XML file, then import the wireless profile settings stored in the XML file on another computer.

  Follow the steps in the link below to import and export wireless profiles.
