Hello
1. don't you make changes to your computer before the problem?
Follow these methods and see if the problem still occurs.
Method 1
I suggest that you check the status of the drive using the disk management and reassign the drive letter, check if it helps.
Change, add, or remove a drive letter

Original title: backup of the files to the external drive process
I'm supposedly backup files for the first time on my drive external expansion. What is curious to me, is that whenever I try to backup my files, I did so more than once in the last days, I get a message that the last backup was cancelled because it couldn't finish. I checked the properties of the expansion drive and the disc itself has increased a large amount, so I know that there is something out there. But when I look at the contents of the disc, the only thing that indicates that there is nothing there's a folder name of the computer. I have files on the drive I installed manually. When I switch my pointer on the folder (name of my computer), it says that the folder is empty? Then when I open it there is a sub-folder called set back again several subfolders marked save the file with a date and a number. All these files are empty?
I thought when I backed up the files on my drive external, that they would be there on the screen and freely accessible, like the ones I put on manually? Would someone mind explaining the process to me... in layman's terms?

Time Capsule turn off when you try to access
- I have a TC (A1409) with a WD Caviar 2 TB (replacing the HARD drive)
- Now, it stops when you try to access the HARD drive on my mac. I mean, it's on, green light, all ok and then I try to look for something on the HDD and it turned off.
- It does not work this way, at the beginning he worked just perfect!
Any ideas?
Thank you!
FWIW, the 4th generation of Capsules of time had problems with their power supplies, specifically because of an overheating. This may not be directly related to your question; However, you use a replacement drive that may be overloading power of the TC.
Given that the problem only occurs when access them the disk, which will rotate upward and consume more energy, may be the reason why you have this problem.

When you try to connect to Web Sites requesting my user ID when I try to enter it can't do. The reason in
that my ID is Alpha numeric. When I enter the Alpha which is OK. but when I add the digital all I get is Alpha?
This only happens when you try to access a Web Site. Microsoft Word works very well. In fact I can type my user ID in Word and copy paste into the connection site. Which works very well.
It makes no difference as to what I use either Internet Explorer, Firefox or Google. Please notify.

Some users have received an "access denied" message when you try to access their files restored once a recovery has been performed. This can occur using Windows backup or backup HP (HP Recovery Manager). They can see the files and folders, but they can do something with them, as the security check to fail.
This occurs because the permissions from the previous installation are also saved with the files and it is a failure on the new system because the files have not been created on this particular installation of Windows.
However, there is a way to solve this error. Users can adapt the files and this should resolve the access denied"" message.
Here is a guide which explains how to do this.
I hope this helps with this particular issue.

Go to control panel | Default programs and set your default email program, if you have a. If you use the webmail, you probably can't set.
