• Creating the new folder to external hard drive

  I've searched the forums and found many discussions on this, but I'm in a quandary.  I have an external hard drive Seagate 4 TB with about 2 TB of data backed up to it.  I was obviously saving data on this external drive without any problems.

  Today, I tried to move my MacBookPro some data on the external drive and was unable to create a folder.  Reading the forums, I checked my permissions and it shows now that I have "Read only" permissions  In addition, it displays the disk formatted in NTFS.

  How is that possible?  Everything was going well, 8 weeks ago.  How can I fix?

  Reformat the drive for use on a Mac, NTFS for Windows machines, the drive to Mac OS extended (journaled) format

• Project mobile folder on external hard drive

  I have a folder in the mail that is heavy on Photos, and I think that takes a lot of my internal drive.  I want to put this folder on an external drive to free up space for other things.

  In addition, all these stored in iCloud anyway? When I want to open one of these emails, it takes a long time to 'download' from somewhere.

  Thank you.

  Dave I have.

  You should think about iCloud as a timing device - in other words - if the photos are here - they are reflected on your devices

  Remove photos from iCloud will remove them with devices as well

  One solution is to import them on the hard disk and then transfer them to a device out of storage such as an external hard drive or Carbonite or the Upthere.com

• Unable to get the preview of images that are cut and pasted from desktop folder to external hard drive.

  Original title: I imported the photos of my card SD by cutting and pasting etil worked very well but when I did the same thing to the table and stuck in the external hard drive, I can't not open images as it is said no preview.

  Only this particular file does not open and you please help u to get the photos can save that a link is missing and I don't know what.

  Hi Gregory Trinidade,

  You can try to create a folder in the C: drive and copy the images on the desktop folder C: drive.  After copy in C: drive then try again copy on external hard drive and see if it works well or not.

  Make sure that you have access to the C: drive. Also instead of cut photos copy in another location.

  Hope this information is useful.

• Images-links - folder in external hard drive

  Hi, I m a basic Indesign user and I have a problem with the images.

  "When I create a new document or a book, I always create a folder to put the «.indd/.indb file" and create a subfolder named "images". (I m using an external hard drive)

  My problem occurs whenever I have to change the computer I'm working on. (usually I use a laptop computer and another computer sometimes). When I change the computer, the "drive letter" changes too, as "E:\MyBook\" goes to "F:\MyBook" break all the links in my images.

  My question is. West somehow configure Indesign (or just the document) to recognize all of the 'main' folder when creating links? Like '< all > \MyBook\Images?

  Thank you.

  If the links folder is in the same way as the ID file, it should automatically find the links, so copy the links folder to the drive pahrd and the file ID (bad idea to work on a file that is stored on a flash drive).

• Sudden appearance of the names of long and digital folder on external hard drives

  I have a couple of external hard drives - from different manufacturers - that I use for storage of music and video files and backups. For some reason, the two generated spontaneously records with alphanumeric long file names - for example H:\6f4f50122a8503a6e12ba6813091dede.

  They have few locks on them and thus defy the deletion.

  In fact, I went to the length of formatting of disks. He gets rid of these files, but they come back soon. Does anyone know the purpose of these files?

  I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit flavor.

  No they are not needed, start in safe mode to delete

  Your Firefox personal data is not stored in the Firefox program folder, but are stored in the Firefox profile folder that is located in the AppData\Roaming\ folder.

  • C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.

  You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox

  If you do not save this profile folder then your bookmarks and other personal data is lost.

• the iTunes folder copy of office on external hard drive

  I'm trying to back up my iTunes music on an external hard drive folder.  Whenever I try to drag the file to another drive, I get an error stating that "the operation cannot be performed because you do not have permission to access the .iTunes Preferences.plist.  I also have problems backing up my iPhone and iPad because I get an error indicating that there is a problem with the purchased content.

  By some other posts, I tried to remove the .itunes Preferences.plist file, reboot, restart iTunes and try to copy again - I still get the same message.  I tried different external drives without success.  All discs are in Mac OS extended (journaled) format.  I'm running OS X 10.10.5 on a Mid MacPro 2010 that contains 4 HDDs and using iTunes 12.3.3.17.

• Hello. I created a folder music on my external hard drive connected to my asus router.  I can now access the music through my media library.  How can I change the folder when I make new purchases to iTunes easily without doing it one by one

  I created a folder music on an external hard drive connected to my asus router.  I copied my music from my iTunes library in this folder access and can now my kodi media network.  How I updated the folder when I do new iTunes purchase without having to do it one by one thanks

  You can use a backup tool that updates only modified files.  You don't say what kind of computer you use.

  ITunes is actively using media on the external hard drive so you can replace it. Simply copy the media to one other player does not have iTunes it use it.  iTunes is probably still using media to your internal drive.

• When I open Firefox I overload my profile. I uninstalled it and reinstalled on my external hard drive. When I open Firefox it recreated the ideas of folderAny how do I change the setting so that this folder is in my hard drive

  most of the information is in my question. My profile on my home computer is limited. I would like to set up Firefox so it puts the profile and any other information on my external hard drive. I tried all of the optional parameters, but have not been able to solve the problem

  You can use the Profile Manager to create a new profile, then click on the button choose to set the location of this profile on the other disk. You must specify a new (empty) location for this profile because Firefox uses the specified location and does not create a new folder. This allows you to specify an already existing profile on this player and Firefox it will use.

  See the location of the custom profile > Firefox Thunderbird and SeaMonkey 2
