• Files larger than 4 GB

  My hard drive is formatted in NTFS, but I cannot transfer or copy files larger than 4 GB. My camcorder Panasonic HD product also files more than 4 GB, HD writer supplied with the camera software display as a file that Windows Explorer and AVS video editing sotware display it as a three or four files, any help would be greatly appreciated because I need to move files on multiple computers and I'm stuck with this 4 GB limit.

  You use the 32-bit version of Windows?  If so, you might consider going to the 64-bit version.  4 GB is all that can be addressed with 32-bit.

  I hope this helps. Good luck.

• Undelete to recover a file LARGER than 4 GB

  I accidentally delete a folder with many files of size greater than 4 GB.  I've tried so far the following application:

  (1) recuva
  (2) GetDataBack for NTFS v4.0
  (3) file Scavenger 3.2

  and none of them can see files greater than 4 GB.  I have a bit of luck trying to recover these files?
  Is there some custom settings I have applied?
  Or is this a limitation of Vista?

  OS: Vista Premium 64-bit
  Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz
  4 GB OF RAM

  appreciate all help.  If there is another application that will recover the files larger than 4 GB, please let me know and I'll buy it.
  So far, I've already lost some $$$.

  Best regards
  John

  It is a long shot.
  If you did no action in the case since the deletion, then try to do a [Ctrl] [Z].  This will reverse the last action.

• Recovery software deleted without the original disks?

  I have a computer Dell Latitude D800. The operating system is Windows XP Professional, 2002, SP2. I recently downloaded updates from Microsoft, that there were many and installed updates. During this procedure and I do not know how, subsequently set MS office, Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Outlook, has been eliminated. I discovered this when I tried to open Word, Excel, and Powerpoint documents. I noticed that the icons of these documents had changed, and a pop box would be saying "Windows is not knowing what created this program file" After checking the list of programs from the Start button, of course, these programs have disappeared. I installed Word, Excel and Powerpoint Reader and I can now open and read documents, but of course, I can not change or create new ones. Again I have Outlook Express and can use it to my email. I don't have the original disks to reinstall the software. Is there a way to 'recover' this software and reinstall?

My PC was in such bad condition, there was no way for me to back up important files before you reset it. Now I have to reinstall Adobe CS6, but I can't find the original disk. I however have the product code and serial number, is there a way for me to return CS6? Help, please.

  You can download and use the serial number you have to acrivate.

• How to re - install Adobe Photohop Elements 8 from the original disk?

  How to re - install Marcus Photoshop Elements 8 from the original disk.  All the disk wants to do is to uninstall the program.  [If I did I would lose all my photos?]

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  No, you won't lose your photos.  but you can prepare your catalogue for migration, http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html

  and if you follow the 7 steps you can download a free trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/direct-download-links-for-lightroom-3-and-photoshop-elements-8.h tml

  and activate it with your serial number.

  If you have a problem from the download, you follow the 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.

  the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow the steps 1, 2, and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system, allowing you to download the correct version of the adobe.com site).

  failure to obtain this cookie translates into an error page displayed after clicking on a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (e.g., current) version.

• Windows XP stops responding during defragmentation of files larger than 2 gigabytes.

  This is a really annoying problem and can affect others out there. I have two new XP Pro machines with processors dual core who have some great backup files and Virtual PC files. When I run the Defragmenter from windows or any Defragmenter also when large files are treated especially towards the end of a move of a file XP or, generally, Windows Explorer stops responding until the move is complete.

  I can't access the start menu, the Manager of tasks or programs that are already running while moving large files is ongoing. I ran the defragmenter in safe mode and appears not to happen. I used MSconfig start in diagnostic conditions and could not reproduce the problem, but I seem to lose some of my starting points had to restore from a backup. Both computers are material different but similar software configs.

  Help, please

  concerning

  Tim

  Well, I have increased my ram to 4 GB motherboards and the problem seems less obtuse with just a light gel or anything when the defragmentation of large files. I understand that the Windows API moves the files into 1 GB chunks using Defragmenter then maybe it wasn't adequate memory and xp was the pagination.

  Not quite sure it's fixed, but it seems that Yes, so I increased the ram too in my other machine to 4 GB. I know only 3.25 is usable, but maybe the extra 1 GB makes the difference?

• VMX file larger than the maximum size supported by the data store

  Hi all

  I seem to be getting a strange error trying to a virtual machine that is located on a snapshot VMFS5, to the data store format.

  The virtual machine (VMDK and VMX file) is installed on a thin provisioned 2 TB datastore which has the value VMFS5 formatting.  It is a data store new with no other VM on it.  I had problems in the past with the datastore block sizes (1 MB, 2 MB, 4 MB, 8 MB on VMFS3), however, I thought that VMFS5 got rid of the question, since it's all blocks of 1 MB and all files in the virtual computer are on the same data store.

  The error I get indicates that the VMX file is too large for the data store (used Im saying "unspecified file), however, if I do the independent 2 TB disk snapshots through the fine.  The virtual machine has two virtual disks, a 50 VMDK of GB and a thin 2 TB VMDK (200 GB used).  I tried fast vMotioning the VMDK and VMX to other data formatted VMFS5 stores and still get the same error.

  I'd appreciate any help and ideas.

  Thank you

  Travis

  Although the block size limit is party, maximum 2 TB file size less 512octets still exists. Since a Flash disk can grow waist put in service the basic disk more overhead for the metadata, the maximum size of virtual disk - to be able to create snapshots - is 2032 GB.

• Migration of Time Machine to the new drive, backups are larger than the Original drive

  I am currently migrating my Time Machine backups from a 2 TB WD My Passport for Mac to a new WD 6 to my book for Mac. I have 63 backups on the old disk, and Finder says that the reader has TB filled 1.96.

  However, each individual backup is about 350 GB, which certainly does not. I think normally it was something weird with the Finder listing the wrong sizes, except that when I copy the backups to the new disk, they copy effectively to 350GB a piece. I initially tried to copy everything the ~ 2 TB Backups.backupdb at once, but it was so great, she didn't, then I copy on each both a backup in a folder that I had planned to rename "Backups.backupdb" at the end. At this rate, I will fill new TB cases 6 drive long before copying all backups on.

  How is that possible?

  Just to be complete, I'm using a Macbook Pro of the retina 2012, 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 graphics card Intel HD 4000 1536 MB, 512 GB of storage, under OS X 10.11.3.

  Time Machine saves the previous backups for the continuous backup size to become more wider until there is no more space on the backup drive. It is quite normal because Time Machine is an archive backup utility.

• Opening of TDMS files larger than 500 MB in LabVIEW

  Hello

  We were faced with a problem when opening files TDMS connected using a LabVIEW, PDM Viewer (the vi in palette Advanced TDMS) application, or by creating a new PDM vi player. The recorder app is built using TDMS functions in palette file.

  When the TDMS files are everywhere higher than 500 MB or the application hangs or crashes. It can sometimes give full error memory.

  I browsed the forum and found the screws to split large TDMS files into smaller files and then open them. The other option is to use NI DIAdem. Currently, we use the option of the tiara. We do not want to modify the application to split the files into smaller sizes.

  I'd like to understand why this is happening for files of these formats. I can easily play TDMS of 100 or 200 MB files.

  The configuration of the system plays a role in the present? How is it that DIAdem can open the file and cannot LabVIEW?

  request explanation

  Thank you

  What I want is to know if upgrade to Win 7 and LV 64-bit will solve this problem, without cut it files each time, or use the TDMS vi Viewer.

  More likely since the channel data is placed in a very wide range and fragmentation of memory makes it very hard on 32 bit with LV 32-bit OS. Another thing that could be a problem on your 32 bit LV: display data as it creates a copy of data. So maybe the original data of the channel can hold in memory, but tries to display it sweeps away memory.

  Another thing for 32-bit applications is to check the largest block of data you always free. Use tools like VMMap for your request of fragmentation of memory snapshot.

  As I wrote already, a generic application 64 bit triggers the limited "insane" values depending on the operating system like Windows 7... still, there are limits.

  EDIT: The link of Windows 7 go to the physical memory table on the whole system. This does not reflect the virtual memory available to a single process. Scroll down to the table "and address space limits of memory" a virtual memory figure that can be assigned to a process 64-bit on Win7 x 64. The value is 8 to...
