• Why my external hard drive cannot be mounted or viewd by a Macbook

  Hello

  I can't see my HD exertenal from the finder.

  I do not have G-Tech HD and I use with TimeMachine. This HD has two partitions.

  The first is used for the backup with Time Machine, a macbook air, and the second partition is used to back up a macbook pro with Time Machine.

  It worked fine until I look in the external hard drive (partition macbook). Now, it is not possible to mount the external hard drive. From the Finder, I see no partition eighter the first or the second.

  I plugged it in an another mAcbook air and no way to see inside the external hard drive.

  Howerver, I pluggged in a 14.04 ubuntu and I was able to navigate through the external hard drive

  Why can I see the contents of the external HD with a ubuntu n not with a Macbook?

  And how can I solve this problem?

  See you soon

  El Capitan has permissions configuration much tighter than earlier versions of Mac OS X and it can become a problem to open files from a different computer. You need to tell us what OS you are running on all computers.

  I suspect that Ubuntu is having no problem because it does not under the same restraint of permissions.

  It worked fine until I look in the external hard drive (partition macbook).

  What you have done here, caused the change of permissions.

  Don't forget that connect a player directly on a computer and use it plugged into an airport will have different permissions issues.

  I don't have much in the way of a solution. Apple has changed repair them permissions on El Capitan.

  You have a Mac running an earlier version of Mac OS X?

  If your two partitions are used just to make the Time Machine backups...

  Hello!

• Moved files on external hard drive cannot find my changes in lightroom

  I use Lightroom 4 on a Mac.
  I moved recently all my photos on an external hard drive, and nothing I've read yet could help move my images edited in Lightroom.

  In lightroom, beside the heading folder I clicked on the + and added my external drive - it shows it's Green and alive.

  All the pictures I had initially recorded on my Mac hard drive are now showing on external drive - good.

  In lightroom, the subfolders in my Mac hard drive are now show with question marks that files are missing - who they are, because they are now on my external hard drive.

  What is my problem, all the editing I did on these photos in lightroom before is now gone. How do the editing work I had done on these photos to appear on the external hard disk images? If I look at my pictures on the hard drive of the Mac, they show they have faded and disappeared, but it shows all my changes again on the photos. External hard disk, it shows the original version of the image with no changes made.

  Note: I backed up my computer before moved me all my photos, so if I need to put them on hard drive on my mac, I am able to do.

  Update

  I have solved my problem. If someone comes across the question I was trying hard, I suggest to try move the files from WITHIN lightroom.

  Initially, I had used my OS to move my files to image on an external hard drive, by simply drag and drop. Lightroom was not able to keep the editing I did on these pictures after that that they were moved. I restored a backup on my Mac and place the files in their original location. Then within the lightroom program, I was able to move the folders from photo (with modifications) on my external hard drive.

• USB (external hard drive) device no power down / off when safely removed in Windows 7

  Well, I asked this question and no one seems to respond, I also found that many people want to solve this problem so here, it's once again

  Whne you have a hard drive that is not a switch on/off button that you who wait when you remove safely from the windows, he stops, so you shouldn't have to disconnect form the usb slot to do.
  And it happens in WIndows XP, but it is NOT in Windows 7 (or that I read, in Vista as well).

  I want to know, because it bothers me really, what is the solution?

  What I want is, after I click on "remove" my external hard drive, that what he would have turned off (standby) as it does in Windows XP!

  Help please.

  Hi gala,.

  Thank you for visiting the community Microsoft Windows 7.  The feature remove the device safely does not power supplied to a USB device in Windows. By design, the port to which the device is attached is not interrupted in Windows when the unit is softer.

  Please let us know if this helped.

• External hard drive USB, not received a drive letter in Vista 64-Bit

  I do not use my BeyondMicro 160 G external hard drive a lot just to make occasional backups, well this time was different.  I have powered the drive, plugged the USB cable into my PC and normal tone was heard, but NO drive letter is assigned to the drive.  In fact I couldn't find anywhere in my computer that the unit was even detected.  I Visa Ultimate 64-bit, I tried to uninstall the drivers in the Device Manager and rebooted and still no external drive, any suggestions?

  Konala Hello,

  Thank you for your response.

  If the external hard drive not detected below are some steps to solve the problem:
   
  You can check if the device is compatible with Windows Vista by visiting the Windows Vista Compatibility Center, which includes a list of drivers, hardware and applications that are compatible with Windows Vista.
   
  For reference, the link to the Windows Vista Compatibility Center is included below:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/
   
  Then, if the external hard drive is not detected in Device Manager, please check if the external drive is detected in the management of the computer:
   
  You can check this by going to: start then click on computer

• 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.
