I have a seagate external hard drive with files copied from windows pc. If I will download NTFS driver from seagate to my mac, could I install it safely without harming my files in the external hard drive? I am afraid I may erase all files in there.

I have a seagate external hard drive with files transferred from my windows pc. If I will download NTFS Driver from seagate to my mac, could I install it safely without harming my files? I am afraid.. I might erase all my important files during the installation..

Thanks a lot! I have already downloaded Paragon Driver and it works well with seagate external hard drive. I am copying as of now my important files from my mac to it. However, I have only the trial version which will expire in 10 days. I don't have credit card to buy for it.

    There is no such thing as an "SG3" or "SG4".  Did you possibly mean a 3GS and iPhone4?
    It has always been very basic to ensure that a backup exists of your media and other important files.  Computers fail, hard drives crashes... things happen.  Do you not have a backup?  The iPhone, like all iDevices is NOT a backup of your media, but rather a mirror of the content in the iTunes library on your computer.
    If your contacts, pics, etc are not on your computer, no backups of the iPhone exist, and they are not on the phone, they are gone.
    No one can magically make them re-appear.

  • HT1218 What do I need to do to use the Airplay feature with Jango Radio from my iPhone or Mac?

    What do I need to do to use the Airplay feature with Jango Radio from my iPhone or Mac?

    Thanks Community! I solved the problem. In fact it was not a problem but lack of understanding. These guys at Apple are way ahead in thir thinking. I will try to explain as short as I can.
    In Lion, ihe Prefferences/Display show only two choices: 6-7 steps of resolution and some color tab. No two screens, no two display to overlap, nothing for us to do. "That was the problem"! Everything is automatic.
    When I connected the HDMI cable to the Miniport into a T-bolt slot, the TV screen showed the "spiral galaxy" how Zyriab is calling it. In fact he gave me the best clue. That shows the connection is good. But where is the Mac Book image?
    You have to drag it to the right out of the Mac Book display area, and "voila!" it will continue on the TV screen. The same with the mouse pointer, push it out ofthe Mac Book display area and you see it on the TV sreen. Good image, you can keep the max resolution, etc. The sound is still on the Book's speakers. I have to figure that out.
    Thank everybody, especialy Zyriab, ne was the closest.
    High regards to everybody

    Have you synced your iPhone with iTunes on this computer before? If not, nothing is selected automatically under the various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    Was this the first time your iPhone was connected to iTunes on any computer? If so, the first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes for the first time that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or eyeless device to the iPhone or set up the iPhone as a new iPhone. This is not automatic, it must be manually selected.

  • Hello. I have a problem. I cannot delete any apps from my ipad. It won't even wiggle when i tap and hold on the icon. There's also no restrictions and passcodes in my settings. My photos on camera roll even get lost once i shut down my ipad. Please help.

    The preinstalled apps, those that came as part of the iOS, cannot be deleted and will not shake or provide the black circle-X for deletion.
    Others should do that if you touch and hold for a few seconds.
    If they are not, do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if that appears.

  • File will download in iTunes, then disappear (completely) on Mac (Win works!)

    I am a university professor trying to get students into using iTunesU but a mess arises.
    MIT's linear algebra is a fine course but on Mac (10.6) with iTunes (10.4) one lecture (LU decomposition) will download fine and then disappears forever. I checked the iTunes folders in $HOME (unix lingo for /Users/name), $HOME/Music, checked elsewhere (went to the root (aka /) and did a find ./ -name *filename* and nothing turns up. I downloaded again and went to the download directory. I see the file growing to proper size and then it simply is gone. It is not transferred properly. I tried ps -aef and saw nothing (but it may go too fast). There is nothing in the bin either.
    This happens in several courses, not only MIT. Other lectures in the same directory go flawless.
    Issue is a Mac 10.6 / iTunes 10.4 thing. It runs fine on a Windows machine and I can download to my iPhone from wireless at home.
    Second, and related issue. Many students have iPads, iPhones, iPods. They're excellent to store some iTunesU lectures but it seems that once transferred to the iPhone from internet, there is no way to delete the files (or transfer them to Mac) !?
    Thanks for the help !

    Just adding my voice to this problem. I've watched iTunes try and download the same iTunes U video file about ten times and every time it completes the iTunes U list just resets and lists it as being available to download. Trying to play it straight from the downloads list has no effect.
    I've tried signing in but this one particular file still refuses to download. Even deleting everything in the iTunes temporary download location and checking the permissions of that folder it is still giving me problems.
    While I've been able to successfully download a couple of other videos, the one I actually want to watch refuses to work. I am desperate for help here. I've made a genius bar appointment because I have run out of ideas here.

  • Try to load new iPad Mini with reserve copy from my iMac

    Hi,
    Try to load new iPad Mini with reserve copy from my iMac coming from my iPhone 4S.
    When selecting the copy I can not find the just made copy from my iPhone 4S.
    I see tree others, but not the latest from iPhone 4S.
    Is there a max on copies showed ??
    Please advise,

    As far as I know there is no limit to the number of backups that you can store in iTunes as long as you have the available storage capacity on the Mac. I have at least 10 or 12 backups in iTunes for my iPad and iPod Touch. Every time that you restore from a backup - a time and date stamped backup is created that cannot be overwritten. I must have 8 of those backups on my Mac.
    Did you look in iTunes>Preference>Devices to see if the backup is really in there?

    Note:
    The iPhone 3G can only update as far as iOS 4.2.1
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
    If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...

  • Applications with serial numbers from old to new mac

    Hello,
    I just purchased a new Retina Display MBP as an upgrade to my old iMac.
    I have over 200 Applications taking up the bulk of my drive, many of which have serial numbers that I no longer even know of due to loss of original boxes, or what have you.
    I am trying to avoid copying all of my content over to the new MBP, I would much rather just move what I actually need to and try to keep it a little "cleaner". So my question is, with a Time Machine Backup of my iMac... Can I plug that into the MacBook Pro, launch Time Machine, and simply drag the last backup's Applications over? Will the ones with the serial numbers run?
    Is there a better way to do it?
    Thanks!

    Use Migration Assistant. You can customise to a certain extent what you transfer over, but it'd be easier to transfer all your stuff that way and then delete what you don't want.
