  How the Virtual Machine has been backed up and restored?  If Time Machine then...

  It is a known fact that Time Machine is not 100% reliable backing up/restoring VMS in all circumstances/conditions.  Also back up Virtual Machines via Time Machine of disk/time intensive and wastes a lot of space for something that may be corrupted and worthless time to restore it.  At least I would exclude the Virtual Machines with virtual machines and Time Machine shutdown, not suspended and VMware Fusion closed and then manually copy the VMS to another location, preferably on a different physical hard drive.  So keep the user data stored in the virtual machine saved out of the Virtual Machine on a regular basis in order to always have a backup of the current user data.  If you need to restore a properly saved by VM is not as common at least you will have a virtual working Machine and data user to go forward with when you find out your Time Machine backup of the virtual machine fails.  Also take a look at: best practices for backup of virtual machine (programs and data) in VMware Fusion (1013628)

  That said, if you don't have a copy of the file "Windows 7 - f004.vmdk" and then to try to retrieve the data from the user, you can try the following:

  Download then unzip it (double-click on) the joint "Windows_7 - f004.vmdk.zip" file that contains the file "Windows 7 - f004.vmdk ' an empty logical binary measure that has been created on the metric of the existing drive and add to the Package of the Virtual Machine.  This should allow the VHD to be considered as a virtual hard drive, assuming that there is no damage to the extent of the binary left headers.  Take a look on: work with Virtual Machine packages

  At this point, that the VHD has the scope necessary to show as a full disk, assuming that it is not corrupt the header in other binary extensions and can now attempt to access for the recovery of user data.

  There are several ways to try to retrieve user data.  The easy, although not necessarily work properly according to what now lack us due to replace the missing binary extensions with a logical empty measure, is trying to start the VM normally.  If the virtual machine starts up on the desk and VMware Tools load properly you should be able to copy your data to user off on a USB or slip and fall on the side of Mac or if you have a configured VMware folder then copy the files through it.

  Other methods involve starting the Virtual Machine with a Live OS ISO Image and copy files from a USB key or temporarily assemble the VHD to another Virtual Machine work.

  With the right tools installed the virtual hard disk could also be mounted as another accessible Volume through Finder.

• A virtual machine or the template with the same name is already registered. Server error: the specified key name or identifier already exists.

  Hi all

  I have a 5.5 esxi server just the a virtual machine running at the moment. I try to clone this as shown below:

  http://nchrissos.WordPress.com/2013/04/22/cloning-a-VM-without-vCenter-in-ESXi-5-1-free-edition/

  However, I get the error:

  A virtual machine or the template with the same name is already registered. Server error: the specified key name or identifier already exists.

  I have no vcenter (yet), and it's just the 1 vm. The virtual machine is turned off. I get this error regardless of the name, I said that when I choose "add to the inventory.

  All advice appreciated.

  Thank you

  Oh dear...
  you read bad advice on the internet and then you get also the stupid advice here.

  Ignore both!

  If you want to clone a virtual machine by copying - do it like this:

  Create new virtual machine with the wizard.
  Skip creating a disk for new customers.

  In Datastorebrowser copy the original vmdk to the new dir, which has been created by the wizard.
  Reopen the new VM and edit - assign the vmdk that you just copied.

  The procedure of the blog is not supposed to work.
  Sissine trick doesn't make sense either

• Virtual machine from Windows 8 not found

  Performance of Fusion 5.0.2 with Lion mountain on a MBPro.  Created a Windows 8 VM and all seemed well.  I got a message today when Windows 8 was running.  I don't remember what he said, but he indicated that the VM could not suspend due to the fact that a name had changed.   I closed my programs and stop windows 8 wth no descendants.  I stopped VM and rebooted.  Now, when the Virtual Machine library appears it shows Windows 8, but it is not found, said. Can someone help me solve this problem.  I hope I don't have to rebuild the virtual machine.  Thank you very much.  Dave

  According to the support group, the "/ Users/klodigensky/Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmInventory ' file all of the Virtual Machine must be located in" / users/klodigensky/Documents/Virtual Machines.localized / Windows 8.vmwarevm»  Note that by default, .localized extensions and .vmwarevm are hidden.

  I guess it's is gone which means it has been moved or deleted and you looked in the trash for her?

  Also if he was moved accidentally, you should be able to find it in a Terminal by using the following command:

  mdfind .vmwarevm
  

  Another way to get it is by using a program like disk inventory X that graphically display the contents of the hard drive and because of the Virtual Machine tend to be bigger then most files should be quickly noticeable.

  Otherwise there is not much more to offer in this case.

• Problems after resizing XP virtual machine: a Windows image not valid

  After increasing my Windows XP virtual machine, I can't run Microsoft programs.

  My system

  I am running XP as a virtual disk with Fusion 4.1.3 on a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard) with a drive of 500 GB and 4 GB of RAM.  My virtual machine from Windows XP (formatted FAT) has only 700 MB of free space, so I tried to increase its size from 32 GB to 48 GB.

  What I've done

  1. I increased the size of the HD in merger/disc settings

  2. the virtual machine does not resize automatically.  Messages to OS X Console says repeatedly that the virtual machine was no resizing applications ("' NUMA: auto size request ignored '")

  3. I then used EaseUS Partition Master in Windows XP to increase the use of the newly released hard drive space, but the extra space would never appear after reboot XP

  4. I then tried Partition Wizard, that worked.  So that resizing Partition Wizard was also moving files.

  The problem:

  When I restarted Windows, I got several error messages saying that the dll is not a valid windows image.  I couldn't run all Microsoft programs (Outlook, Excel, etc.) but can run non-Microsoft programs after clicking through many error reports.

  Fortunately, I made a copy of the virtual machine before attempting to resize, so I use it now.  But I lost 12 GB on my Mac hard drive and cannot get enough space in Windows

  Any thoughts out there so that I could get enough space?

  It is good that you made a backup, because even in the best conditions can things and sometimes lack.

  Since you had questions, go right to work, in other words, the first step to actually make the larger virtual hard drive, I have consider doing the following.

  1. ensure that you have a backup full host.  Time Machine is great for Mac OS X but not for Virtual Machines.  For the Virtual Machines, you must make a copy while closed stop, unsprung, and VMware Fusion.  Once you are sure that have everything backed up properly...

  2. use utility disk to verify disk permissions, disk check and optionally repair either or both based on audit reports.

  3. use vmware-vdiskmanager with the -r option to check the integrity of the virtual hard disk.

  4. from the guest operating system in a Windows prompt command use chkdsk /f to check and fix a problem with the Windows file system.

  5. try to resize the virtual hard disk again.

• Lion running as a virtual machine under Windows (in front of the normal).

  Long story short, I'll install Windows (natively) on my MBA (lots of reasons - application compatibility, management files, etc.) but would like to have OS X on the side to play with. Anyone have any experience using OS X Lion in a virtual machine under Windows? Since it IS an Apple computer brand, I think it would be legal Yes? I'm guessing there will be VM Tools, but again, since it is an MBA, the drivers should be built anyway?
  
  Thank you

  First VMware does not support Mac OS x (and version) running under Windows!

  Mac OS X Lion, which is preinstalled cannot be legally virtualized and to virtualize Mac OS X Lion, you need to have a copy that was purchase on the App Store or on USB and then can only be virtualized on Mac OS X Lion!

• Virtual machine from Windows XP to Windows 7 Professional

  Two years ago the virtual machine from Windows XP was installed on my laptop which has Windows 7 Professional.  I use version XP for playing games is not compatible on Windows 7.  Everything worked well until a few weeks ago.  I was unable to open the games.  An error message window is displayed when I click to start the game.  "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG.

• How the physical machine can communicate with the virtual machines as well as the internet should work on a virtual machine

  Hi team,

  I ask that you forgive for asking a silly question without doing a free search.

  I'm using VMware workstation 6.5. I am able to communicate with both machines by selecting 'only option of home. "

  Is there a way by which the physical machine can communicate with the virtual machines.

  At the same time through the VMS, is it possible to access the Internet from the physical amchine.

  Help, please.

  Concerning

  Sriapti

  When you use a bridged vNIC the customer acts as any other host, so that you can access is by his IP (or name if a DNS configuration exists as you acceding to any other host.) What tools you can use depends on the guest operating system and the software available.

  I assume you mean access deskopt. Then you can use RDP (Windows Terminal services) or VNC (tight/tiny).

  For Linux, you can use this last or all the flavors of SSH. In the case of Linux, I use VNC through SSH tunnel. You can also tunnel X through SSH, so if you have an X server on another host (such as the Hummingbird for Windows), you can open your own office remotely there.

• create the virtual machine from windows NT 4 server with adaptec raid 5

  I have an old Dell (1998) server running windows NT 4.0 sp6a.  He had a raid 5 configuration using the controller raid adaptec SCSI 2940.  2 discs failed who broke the raid set.  I had a disk recovery company to recover the data and they have scratched off readers and gave me a SATA with all volumes.  I found a procedure to create a virtual hard disk (.vhd) and then converted to a hard and used to create a virtual machine in VMware workstation 7.  When I turn on the virtual machine, it begins the process of starting windows, shows the boot menu, select normal or mode VGA, goes through the process of NTdetect, display processor and memory but then gives a BSOD with the message inaccessible_boot_device.

  I changed the hard to affect the buslogic ddb.adaptertype, but it gave me the same problem.

  is there a different driver that I need for an adaptec raid controller or if the typical SCSI drivers should work?  If the typical SCSI drivers should work, so my problem might be in my Boot.ini because it shows that he is supposed to start on the partition (4) and this sata drive may not have scores exactly as they were on the raid configuration.  I tried to mount the volumes not in read-only mode, but the partition that I need to change the boot.ini file is partition (2) what mapping VMware won't let me open mode not readonly.  whenever I have, select it and it opens the partition (1) mode not readonly.

  I know this sounds complicated then I hope I described with precision.

  Hello
  I live in Germany, but my internal clock seems to be adapted to the New York Times.
  Very useful, because most repairs or recovery to the VMware is done the evening or at night.

• HP Pavilion g6 2210ss (Windows 8) with limited access

  I use a laptop HP Pavilion g6-2210ss in a house where there are many different computers and laptops connected to a router via wifi and LAN. All computers are connected to the internet without any problems except the laptop mentioned.

  This laptop is the only one that is currently running Windows 8. I tried ethernet and wifi on that computer connections and none of them worked; I can connect to the network, but I still get the warning message "limited access". If I try to open a web page, I get the message "no connection".

  I tried to uninstall and restart to update drivers, select supplier list, netsh commands, routers... None of them worked. Any ideas?

  Hi HandyAndy14,

  Thanks a lot for your answer. I solved the problem, two days earlier, sorry for not having informed here.

  I found this information on HP Support website:

  The problems of Internet connection to broadband (Windows 8)

  I tried almost all the proposed solutions without success. However, the last of them work: HP System Recovery.

  After the factory restore, I have had access to the internet as before. I'm just not day to 8.1, just in case.

  At one point, I had a problem when the keyboard no longer works, but with the help of the virtual keyboard of Windows 8 and this link, I have found a solution:
  Pressing the keys does nothing (the keyboard does not work)

  I hope this helps someone else.

• Reinstall Windows XP in Virtual Machine on Windows 7

  I have the Virtual Machine Windows on my OS Windows 7 Professional. This allowed me to install Windows XP on this computer. It worked fine for several months until, from one a few days ago, I cannot access the XP and have been advised by Microsoft to simply re - install the XP software and start again. When I try this, I said that the first step is to download and run a MS file named GenuineCheck.exe which is supposed to validate my system. When I try to run it, a note comes up saying that this file is obsolete. Do a little digging online, I told myself that this ony file works if you have Windows XP. What the definition of Catch 22? I have an XP corrupted in my virtual machine, so, technically, I have Windows XP. Any ideas on how I can be validated?

  If you do not store a copy of the Windows XP Mode Setup file?

  WindowsXPMode_en-we

  Click Start, type: programs and features

  Press enter

  Scroll down and select Windows XP Mode, click Change/uninstall in the command bar

  Restart when you have finished, and then try the installation again.

  If you don't have a copy of the installer, you need to download again in Windows 7 Professional and reinstall:

  Both Windows XP Mode and Windows Virtual PC can be downloaded from http://www.windows.com/business/downloads.

• Install Windows XP on a Virtual Machine in Windows 8

  I tried to clone an installation of Windows XP on a DELL portable computer that almost died of old age in a Virtual Machine on my new computer Windows 8.  Windows 8 will not work some software I need and that you've used for years on the old laptop.  The installation seems to work until I log on the virtual machine.  Then a window pops up saying that I have to activate the Windows installation.  I tried to use the activation code I got from Dell, but Windows does not recognize it so I went to the phone and Windows system does not recognize the code that shows my installation.  Is it possible that I can get this facility enabled?  I'm not going to update my old software and I want to use this virtual machine to run older software that are not compatible with Windows 8.

  It seems that Microsoft doesn't sell XP more.  I have a Windows XP disc that is not way OEM before SP2 is out, but I want to keep all my software from the recent to install without having to re - install some programs of 20 or 30.  Can anyone help?

  The CD is not everything you need - you need the product key.  You have the product key?
   
  If yes - you can integrate the SP3 in Windows XP's media retail, you have (not updated, full retail) and then use it to perform a REPAIR installation with your product key found.

• Windows 7 no internet Access

  Hi, I'm a computer store in my area. Here in many systems of Windows 7, I found a problem "without Internet access" but the internet is configured normally, I have connection in all other devices here. I saw the same problem in many systems Windows 7 here.

  last day, I got a system with the same problem, I just disabled the network adapter and allowed him once again. The problem has been resolved. Why is this happening?
