• To edit first with different computers, with an external hard drive

  Is it possible to have several editors work with an external hard drive in cs6 first so that when the external drive is reconnected to a different computer that the files do not have to be reconnected. It seems that every time that the hard drive is open on another computer, it loses track of where the files are located and we spend a moment to reconnect them.

  Just check that the drive letter of the disk is the same for all computers.

• You can save the projects that you are currently editing on an external hard drive?

  I went travelling this summer and want to make a video of all my photos / videos. As you can imagine there are many of them and they are on different cards memory. So I bought a disc external hard samsung which is comparable with Mac to store all my content. The first batch of files that I imported from my hard drive to iMovie went on well, but then I tried to import some more and I do not have enough memory space on my Macbook Air.

  Is there anyway you can get iMovie to use my external hard drive to save projects as default? So instead of import content and she being temporarily stored on my macbook while editing, it would save on my hard drive?

  I am very new and relatively new to mac for iMovie so I apologize if this doesn't make much sense.

  Yes you can.  For a long time I used iMovie 11 but transfer events to and external drive is covered in the help files to: http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3ac6d42c

  and the transfer of projects to: http://help.apple.com/imovie/#move7d66613

  Note that the disk should be in Mac format.  If you are not sure, check using disk utility.

• 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?

• 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!

• Unable to access video clips of the external hard drive

  I've been using PE9 for six to nine months.  My normal workflow was to create a separate project on a 500g external hard drive. This file contains all the video clips (.mov files) and the Project.PREL file.

  This great worked until recently.  I can bring is no longer the .mov clips in the project schedule or sceenline from the hard disk.  By using the command 'Get Meda' a 'unfinished' file is downloaded, and when I try to drag the clip to the timeline, the program asks me where the file. Something has changed - and I don't know what or how to fix it.

  

  The image above comes from a project where I'm having this problem.  The clips that have images in them are downloaded from my portable hard drive.  Others come from my external hard drive - and those are the ones that the program cannot "locate."  That's what I'm trying to figure out how to fix it.  Yet once, this suddenly started happening - so somehow I changed something, I think.

  The same clips can be imported when they are stored on my hard drive.  When I try to import them when stored on a video card, the video importer PRE opens and I can bring them to the program in this way.  However, these are not viable alternatives for me.

  So what has changed, I can't determine.  Is there a setting, codec or something that I can study that this would cause? As I said, this just started happening?

  In addition, some previous projects to open correctly and some may not find the files - even if they are all stored on the same HD 500 g.

  Help, please.

  This ARTICLE will give you some general tips on editing of external HARD drives.

  My first guess would be just like John T - outside drive letter has changed in the operating system.

  Good luck

• 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:

  Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple, Support the section you want to find is the restoration section.

• 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. +

  Thanks in advance & best regards,

  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
