• Computer laptop (Vista) does not take account any new working USB external hard drive

  Hello, I'm under the latest version of Windows Vista Edition Home Premium on a Dell XPS M1210 and spin in the problems with the connection of my second USB external hard drive. In other words, when I plug the drive (a Seagate expansion 1 TB), nothing happens. Literally nothing, no notification of installation of the driver, no sound is played stating that the system recognized the device, no new entry in post working or disk management. I connected this drive on another computer running Windows 7 and it worked without a problem, so I do not suspect the problem to lie in the hard drive, but with my computer. My other external hard drive USB, a Maxtor Basics Portable 250 GB, works perfectly, but there more than two years. I bought the 1 TB Seagate as a backup and an upgrade, but I plan to go back now that there is nothing more than a big black Clipboard with a green LED clear too much room. What can I do about it?

  Hello
   
  Most likely, there is not enough power for the USB port of your machine to the external device do recognize. As a test I would have you test the issue on another USB plug.
   
  I recommend you contact you either OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) or the manufacturer of the motherboard if it is a machine of casting House and get the latest chipset drivers for your motherboard.

• I installed an external USB connected hard drive Seagate, it slowed the computer and check the new disc repeatedly

  Hello

  I installed an external USB connected hard drive Seagate to copy some movies and pictures of my HP laptop with Vista, but it became a big problem. It slowed the computer and check the new disc repeatedly. Then it wouldn't start without the external drive at all but it was working fine once he was conducting with the external hard drive. So thinking I can outsmart the computer, I uninstalled the drive from Control Panel. Now it primer not at all. The computer lights up briefly and then goes out of itself almost immediately, is there a solution to this? Thank you

  Original title: startup problem

  Hi SomBhattacharya,

  Please try the possible fix following first thanks to Carey Frisch:

  1. open the BIOS of the motherboard.
  2. find where it says Priority Boot Device, then select CD/DVD-ROM 1, 2nd Hard Drive and disable all the rest.
  3 find somewhere in the BIOS where it says BOOT USB, Wake on USB, etc. and disable all unnecessary options.

  And second if it does not help, you can try the following with Blue Michael:

  Local Geek Squad had me intentionally set the BIOS to the correct order, then re-order and SAVE.
  It worked, even if the list of the BIOS was always in the right order.

  I hope this helps!

• Best practices to eliminate the USB external hard drives

  Hello

  I wonder what is the best way to disconnect an external hard drive to USB powered.

  The first thing to do is of course, use the "safely remove hardware and eject Media" next to the clock.

  But, after that do you unplug the power or USB cord first?

  The reason why I ask, is that I noticed the following error in the system event log:

  I bought a disc of Lightroom6 for Mac. Can I use the license even om my two ibooks and iMacs at the same time? Given that the macbook air doesn't have a hard drive, is it possible to copy on a USB drive?

  You have two activations and no more. If you need to register a third party, you will need to purchase another package. Yes, the installers can be copied to any media that you consider appropriate.

• 250 GB USB external hard drive is compatible with Mac OS x on an iBook G4?

  Hello

  I just bought a Toshiba 250 GB Usb external hard drive because the seller advised me telling me that it works in my iBook G4 Mac OSX computer.

  I made it and I see it on my desktop with a folder called System Volume Information and 2.32 GB available.

  I tried to copy a file and I got a message saying that the disk is not editable.

  Where can I find the instructions to initialize if it's compatible?

  Thanks in advance,

• How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

  Keep all image files both places?

  What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

  Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

  As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

  As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

  Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

• Satellite 1800-712 does not recognize my USB external HARD drive

  Hello

  I would really appreciate the help. I own a satellite 1800-712. I have receently bought a usb external hard drive for some extra memory (IE Toshiba MK4026GAX USB Device)

  When I connect it to my usb port it records any with the computer. The green light so there is power to the hard drive. The usb ports recognized of other fine features (a modem and memory stick)

  I tried the external hard drive on a desktop pc and it works fine.

  I have downloaded all windows xp service pack updates and updated my bios. Don't know what to do now.

  Please help and thank you in advance!

  Hello

  Although sometimes, I know that the OS is not able to recognize the external USB device, because the device external USB (HDD) consumes more energy than the 500mA.
  The USB ports provide 500mA power and if the device needs more power so it s is not possible for the Windows operating system to recognize the external device.
  You have an external power supply for the USB HDD? You should use it.

  Hi @db69613,

  I'm just surprised at the levels of technical knowledge and technical skills that your possession. Hats off to you for this. It was very clever of you! It has been a privilege to have shared this platform with you and work with you.

  First of all, programs of a different version or windows session will not work on another computer as it was installed on the computer of origin at this time. It is an installation and application software, to the difference of the data or information that is accessible by any computer when the hard drive is connected. It is because no software installation binds the application of this specific operating system installed on this specific to the time machine.

  If the computer does not and the hard drive is accessible, all the content (such as music, photos, videos, and other information are accessible), but the programs have been installed originally are not available and will not work on any other computer when it is connected to the outside.

  However, if the hard drive works fine, windows is correctly installed, then the same hard disk can be installed on another PC of office and some of the programs should work ideally.

• Since the update of Vista on my external hard drive problems

  I have a problem with my external hard drive. A week ago I reinstalled Windows Vista Home Premium on my PC. Everything worked very well, my external hard drive, too. But after installing all the new updates and SP2 my external hard drive has problems. If I copy something from her, or just listen to the music is recorded on it, so overall if I work with her, after 1 to 3 minutes it stops working. I have to sign in to get access to it again. But before installing SP2 updates after SP2 everything worked out very well. So I think that there is a problem with SP2 or the following updates. My Pc is a Dell Dimension 9200 and the external hard drive is a Verbatim 1 TB external hard drive and USB 2.0

  I tried to bbot with Ubuntu and delete the Autorun.inf. Now everything works fine again.
  Thank you

• Response speed - USB external hard drive

  Hello

  I have W7 Professional (32 bit) installed on an Acer Ferrari 5000 with 4 GB of RAM. I have a 1 TB WD My Book USB external hard drive connected via USB.

  When I access the drive to play an Explorer of W7 film shows my folder & first screen load files instantly, but then the green progress under the full path bar direcory slowly starts to move across the screen and may take up to 3 minutes to stop. Durning his time my pc performace Marc everything stop. The video load but Windows Media Watch does not respond and the hourglass (or a circle in W7) shows the application as it is busy. Finally, video begins to play but jumps several images at once, even if the sound is fine. After about a minute the video started playing at double speed, befire the entire process repeats itself until it catches up with the sound and the video will play very well for about 10 minutes.

  Videos are not damaged (I can play my portable hard drive very well), the device signals healthy in the WD diagnostic tool and the firmare for the device is up to date (on the WD site).

  I see a lot of people in this forum have problems with W7 64 bit, but there is no mention of 32-bit issues. Also there never was problems with the device was detected or is not accessible - gal just access the device. My only job is about from the drive to copy the movie on my laptop and play it from there - which kind of defeated the purpose.

  I left a similar post on the WD website, which so far had no response. Is it a question of W7/USB? Any other ideas would be useful.

  Speed on USB hard drives is relatively slow at first. You are looking at maximum read anywhere between 25 and 32MBs speed if the CPU is not do much else at the time. Supported playback mode tend to transfer bog down over time, as the fragmentation of the file. USB is convenient but firewire and eSATA are faster and faster.
