• Cannot save files from the iMac on external hard drive

  Hello. I recently bought an iMac 27 inches 5 k retina and I can't save files to the iMac on my external hard drive, which is a 1 to Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex. I formatted the hard drive before, so I can use it on Mac and PC. It works fine with my Macbook Pro. But not on my iMac. What could be the problem and how can I solve this problem? I don't want the hassle of the backup of my hard drive and reformatting, because there a lot of files already on it. Help, please

  Pray tell what is the format?

• Transferring files from MacBook Air on external hard drive

  Regularly, I backup to an external drive.  But my MacBook air becomes full and cannot update its software. So I want to permanently delete folders from my MacBook on the external drive and then if I need these files I just access it from the external drive.   How to do this?  Help, please.

  Thank you.

  In general, files that take up the most space are music, photos and videos. Those who could be moved to an external drive. But if your external drive is not saved, and it fails, then you lose these files.

  One of the great benefits of owning a MacBook Air is not having it connected to external devices. Perhaps you should consider the upgrade of its internal drive for a larger model.

• Error message "unable to copy the file"hiberfil", it is used by another person or program." Problem copying content from your PC to external hard drive.

  Original title: problem to copy content from your PC to external hard drive.

  I use Windows XP 2000 and am trying to restore my pc to factory settings as it is continuously 'stick '. When you try to copy my drive "c" on an external drive I get a message saying "unable to copy the file"hiberfil", it is used by another person or program." Close any program that might be using the file and try again "." What is 'hiberfil' and how do I close it down as I am not aware that I use?

  Concerning

  Pete

  The hiberfil.sys will be created every time that you start... If you put in hibernation enabled in your control panel, Power Options and the file is 'open' to think that you can actually choose to Hibernate at any given time.  When you Hibernate XP gives a note of it and will write a hiberfil.sys sometimes important in the c:\ folder so that when XP fires again upwards and returns from hibernation, XP will read the hiberfil.sys file and return to the situation that you were in when you put into hibernation.

  I use to be a chronic hibernant because it takes less time to return after hibernation as a cold start.  Sometimes, it can actually be slower that a cold so start your system based on the amount of RAM has.  The more RAM you have, the more your hiberfil.sys will, if sometimes it's faster to move with just a cold start if you Hibernate (26,03 seconds for me).

  If hiberfil.sys is giving you a hard time (you would not in any way copy it) disable hibernation in your Power Options and the file will be deleted immediately since it would be is no longer necessary.  That would solve this, but if you are trying to copy the entire C drive, you will have other files to complain after that.

  It is certainly possible to make a complete copy of the C drive, if you want, but you will have to initialize on something next to your drive hard if you want to do this so the XP files are not used - then you can copy anything and everything.  You can get some imaging software of disc that will also help you.

  It depends on what the problem is you want to solve and what you wand to end up with when you're done (so far, unspecified).

  I would work on figure our why your XP is paste and fix it in place.  XP should not be sticky.

• Transfer of files from Vista to an external HD

  I'm trying to save a file to my HD used 10gig unfortunately external Vista let me because it says the file is great. The external hard drive has more 400gig of available disk space. It is FAT32, but it cannot format it in NTFS because there is too much to transfer them to PC because it is shaped. Any suggestions?

  Thanks in advance.

• How can I change lightroom 5 previews smart on the book of mac pro (mbp) when lightroom master image files 5 are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp

  How can I change lightroom 5 previews smart on the book of mac pro (mbp) when lightroom master image files 5 are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp? So far when I try to disconnect the external hard drive the mbp, I get the pop following window: "external hard drive A" disc could not be ejected because it uses 'Lightroom '. Exit this application and try out this disc again. When I do that and restart Lightroom 5, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - screen select catalog appears, but does not list my external hard drive A as a choice.

  I've been reviewing Adobe's Lightroom Help | Smart web page Previews Lightroom 5 and still have not been able to understand what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

  HI Thomas,

  Thank you very much for your suggestions! They finally gave me the direction I go solve the problems I had. Basically, the Mac Book Pro based Lightroom irdata files still had thumbnails. Once I removed the and redirected Lightroom external hard disk, smart previews of the external drive work when the player is well off the MBP. Much obliged.

  I was wondering if you have any suggestions on how to backup all the files content and related data of Lightroom that exists on the external hard drive to another external hard drive as a backup? Ideally, it would be great if I could be able to launch security HD since the Mac Book Pro and do the work of Lightroom with the backup image files and intelligent previews correctly. Thanks again. Your help has been invaluable.

  best way to transfer photos from the iMac on external hard drive

  If you are mobile loose photo files, drag them in here and if you are going to be removed from the inside, keep a copy on a second disc.

  If you move an iPhoto, Aperture, or photo library, make sure that the external hard drive contains a volume to the Mac OS Extended format, drag the library there, launch the application with the key Option key, choose it, confirm that it works and if you are going to be remove from the inside, keep a copy of it on a second disc.

  Go to computer stores, get an external hard drive of 1 TB capacity. Ask for one that you can just simply copy and paste to transfer files.

  I have a. Digital WD Elements. 1 TB vapacity. It works very well. No action of fancy, complicated to transfer, just copy and paste or drag and drop files.

  I also use it to make Sysytem Image backup.

• How to transfer iTunes with comments and followed by names, but keep the files of the song on external hard drive?

  I have all of my music stored on an external hard drive. On my old iMac, I have iTunes with all the songs on this hard drive organized or recognized as I like, with comments and play lists and track/song names and album names. How can I transfer iTunes as it is to the old iMac to the new MacMini while leaving the actual files of the song (> 2.5 to) on the external hard drive? In short, I want the old iTunes on my new computer, but the files of the song in the current HD thank you so much.

  (2.66 GHz, 4 GB RAM 20 "iMac; 2014 new Mac Mini)

  Hmmm...   Never tried, but I "think" it should work.   The reader will need to named exactly something on the new computer, as it was on the old.

  1. on the old computer, go to {user folder} / music/iTunes and move the files on the external hard drive.

  2. on the new computer in iTunes, go to Preferences > advanced and not select "copy of the file to the iTunes Media folder.

  3. always in this same window under "iTunes Media folder location", click on change.   Now select the location on the external hard drive, you have moved the files too.

• How to transfer Time Machine backup to the new external hard drive

  I'm upgrading to a 1 hard external to the Western reader to with 5 TB of Seagate.  This is because Time Machine has used the 1 TB drive.  How can I transfer the files from backup Time Machine from the old to the new drive so that backups continue to have access to the old files.

  Although the documentation Apple says you can copy Time Machine backups in the Finder, it is very slow and sometimes does not.

  This technique works only if the volume that you copy to the same size or larger that that you are copying to.

  First of all, please open the Time Machine preference pane and click the Select Disk... button. You may be able to unlock the settings first, by clicking on the padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window. Log in as administrator.

  Remove the volume you want to copy in the list of backup destinations. Then turn off Time Machine.

  Launch disk utility, open the built-in Help and search for the term 'Double '. Follow the instructions. All existing data on the destination volume will be deleted. That shouldn't be a problem, because you do not want to mix non-sauvegarde and backup data on the same drive anyway.

  If the volume you are copying has been encrypted by Time Machine, you must first unlock it. Click the release button in the toolbar of the disk utility window.

  Turn Time Machine back on and select the new volume as a backup destination. Alternatively, you can continue to use the old volume, if you wish. Both will be alternated when both are available.

  ATTENTION: If you copy the volume is corrupted, as shown by the ERD or first aid in disk utility, while corruption is copied to the new drive. Do not copy data from a damaged on a faulty disk volume. Put aside the reader and do not use until you don't know that you no longer need the data. Then securely erase it and bring it to a recycling center. Do the same if the restore operation fails with "disk errors."

• Really slow copying files to iMac to Seagate external HARD drive

  I have an iMac mid-2011 running El Capitan, and I'm having a problem copying through large files to my TB 5 Seagate external hard drives.  The copy process is so slow that it is useless to try to back up files more.  Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem?  I found a thread from 2013, mentioned that Spotlight indexing is the problem, but no luck so far.  Anyone got any ideas?  Thank you!!!

  What size is the drive? How are you connected to it? How big are the files?
