Problem with ownership/privileges of NEW external hard disk

An external La Cie drive died on me this morning. I replaced it with a brand new one on which I copied all my files from a back-up. Everything went OK. I gave the new disk the exact same name than the one that had passed away and that was enough for QuarkXpress to figure out the correct location of images imported in various documents.
I then stumbled upon an unexpected ownership/privileges problem with an European piece of software, Ragtime, that will not allow me to do anything but read a document, claiming that "I do not have sufficient privileges".
I tried to grant myself such "privileges" in the Get Info window, but OS X refuses, stating once again that I do not have sufficient privileges to tinker with the system.
I am all by myself, I am the owner/administrator of the machine and don't know what to do. I called Apple Care, but they claim that I'm not entitled to any help because a) the problem occurred with a disk not manufactured by Apple and b) the software I was using is not manufactured by Apple.

Hi, okapulco. Welcome to the Discussions.
I presume this is when using Ragtime in an attempt to work with documents on the new FireWire drive. I suspect your former LaCie drive had been set-up as follows:
1. Open the Get Info window for the FireWire drive.
2. In the Ownership & Permissons pane, select "Ignore ownership on this volume."
3. Close the Get Info window.
Good luck!

  • Disk Utility error -9972 with new external hard disks

    My Powerbook 15" (1.67MHz, 1.5 GB RAM, 100GB drive) is partitioned into two volumes:
    - OS-X 10.3.9
    - OS-X 10.4.3
    Each volume has its own Disk Utility:
    - Disk Utility 10.4.4 v.145.7 (part of OS-X 10.3.9)
    - Disk Utility 10.5.3 v.198.5 (part of OS-X 10.4.3)
    In order to make backups I use an external hard disk enclosure:
    - Macally PHR-100AC, firewire + USB2
    Recently I bought two new 250 GB hard disks and built one of them into the external enclosure (jumper setting to master) and connected it with firewire and formatted the drive as Extended Journaled. After that I made Verify Disk and got bad error messages and could not repair the disk.
    Funny thing (reproduceable):
    Using Disk Utility in OS-X 10.3.9 and formatting as Extended without Journaled: NO errors
    Using Disk Utility in OS-X 10.3.9 and formatting as Extended Journaled: volume bitmap errors
    Using Disk Utility in OS-X 10.4.3 and formatting as Extended without Journaled: bad errors
    Using Disk Utility in OS-X 10.4.3 and formatting as Extended Journaled: bad errors
    Using Disk Utility in OS-X 10.4.3 and formatting as Extended without Journaled and verifying using OS-X 10.3.9: bad errors
    Bad error messages:
    - incorrect key length
    - the underlying task reported failure on exit (-9972)
    - stopped repairing ... volume could not be repaired
    I tried:
    - to build the second new hard disk into the enclosure: same errors
    - to install new firmware 4.73 into enclosure (compatible to 10.3.9): same errors
    - zeroing out all data: same errors
    - to use Techtool Pro 4.0.6 (compatible to 10.4): same errors
    - to restart the mac using both partitions: different errors as described above
    - to disconnect, shut down, restart the external enclosure: same errors
    - to use another firewire cable: same errors
    - to format the external disk again and again: same errors
    - to find any discussion or knowledge base or faq: nothing
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Your post on -9972 was very helpful. Thank you.
    In the meantime I bought another enclosure (Macally PHC-500BC) and installed the same firmware 4.73 and tried to use it.
    Surprise, surprise! Everything is ok with no errors. All my hard disks are working perfectly.
    I suppose my 100AC is a faulty enclosure and needs replacement.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Problems with moving iTunes to an external hard drive

    My laptop is on it's last leg, and I am backing everything up onto an external hard drive. When I sync my itunes to my phone, I want it to sync from my external drive instead of my pc. I followed the instructions given here.... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1364  Including move the original iTunes folder into the recycle bin and changing the location to my external drive. When I open iTunes, there is nothing in my library...no music, apps, playlists, nothing. I go to the advanced tab and check the location and, the location STILL shows that it is in my C drive, which is my laptop, and not the H drive that I changed  it to. I have tried unsuccessfully many time to change it to the H drive. Also, it doesn't matter how many times I throw the itunes folder into the recycle bin, it keeps reapearing in my documents/music folder, but instead of the 15 gb, it only shows 56 kb.
    I appreciate any help I can get on this!!!

    What you needed to do was copy the entire iTunes folder from the C: drive to the external, then hold down shift as you start iTunes and keep holding until asked to choose or create a library. At that point you browse to the libray on the external open it, and it just works.
    At this point it sounds like your media is one the external drive but you may have thrown away the files that tell iTunes what is in your library, playlists, ratings, etc. If iTunes is looking for a library in the "standard" location, and it isn't there, it will create a new blank one for your. If the last library it connected to is anywhere else it stops with an error.
    The 64k question is, can you still find a copy of the original iTunes Library.itl file that used to be on your C:\ drive. If you've not emptied the trash the largest recent file will be the one you want. If those have gone files from the Previous iTunes Libraries folder may possibly be useful for recovering your playlists and other info...

  • Problem with Time Capsule and an External Hard Drive.

    I want to Back Up a new WD External Hard drive with Time Machine to My Time Capsule. It is formatted to FAT32, as I read here that it should be. It is excluded in the Time Machine Settings Settings and I try to delete it with the Minus Sign, but for some reason it won´t let me. I tried to add and delete a few folders from my Mac Book, and it works every time. It just won`t work with my External Hard Drive and it is not being backed up. What should I do?

    Adrain
    I agree with Kenichi, MS-DOS FAT-32 is great for sharing files between windows and Mac, but even it has a single file size limit of 4GB.
    See > http://www.macworld.com/article/51972/2006/07/ww_drives.html
    For the External HD to work as a Time Machine backup the drive needs to be Partitioned and Formatted as he suggests, GUID Partition Table/Mac OS X Extended (Journaled)
    For some great help Partitioning and Reformatting an External Hd, check out the following article by Ken Stone:

  • Having Problems with Kernel Panics and an External Hard Drive

    I've been having Kernel Panics for a month now and have yet to resolve the issue. I know about Dr. Smokes guide to resolving them, but I'm working on a time-sensitive editing project in Final Cut Pro and therefore have not had time to fix my computer.
    I am using an OWC external hard drive for the project, and today when I had a kernel panic and I rebooted my computer as I normally do. But, this time, my external hard drive icon was not on my desktop, and a message popped up that said, "The disc you inserted was not readable by this computer." Is there anyway to remedy this so that my computer reads my hard drive?

    Have you tried using Disk Utility to repair your ext. hard drive as shown in Dr.Smokes Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption?

  • Problem with formatting the saved text to hard disk

    I use a modified code from Macromedia for saving the content of a text filed on hard disk. See code at the end.
    The code works fine and a text file is saved in the given location on the hard disk.
    The problem is that all of the content of the text field appears in a very long single line.
    The line breaks in the text field does not appear at all in the saved text file.
    for example:
    if the following is the the content of the text filed on the stage:
    abcdef
    jhijklm
    nopqrst
    uvxwyz 
    then the saved file is like: abcdefjhijklmnopqrstuvxwyz 
    No line break happens! How can this be fixed?
    Thanks for any suggestions.
    HR
    ******************* Here is the code *************************
    --this handler saves the contents of the field into a text file called 'output.txt'
    --it over writes anything that is in the 'output.txt' file.
    global myFile
    on mouseUp
      if objectP(myFile) then set myFile = 0  --Delete the instance if it already exists
      myFile = new(xtra "fileio")    -- Create an instance of FileIO
      openFile (myFile, the moviePath &"output.txt",0)--Open the file with R/W access
      delete(myFile) --deletes the file
      createFile (myFile, the moviePath &"output.txt) --creates the file again
      openFile(myFile,the moviePath &"output.txt,0) --Open the file with R/W access
      mySaveString = member("input").text --puts the contents of the field 'input' into the variable mySaveString
      writeString(myFile,mySaveString) --writes text to the file
      closeFile(myFile) -- Close the file
      myFile = 0 -- Dispose of the instance
    end

    You need to replace the carriage returns (that aren't followed by a line feed) with the CRLF combination. Feel free to place the following JavaScript handler into a movie script and call it prior to writing your string to disk:
    function jsStringToDOS (str) {
      return str.replace(/(\x0D)(?!\x0A)/g, "\x0D\x0A");
    global myFile
    on mouseUp
      if objectP(myFile) then set myFile = 0  --Delete the instance if it already exists
      myFile = new(xtra "fileio")    -- Create an instance of FileIO
      openFile (myFile, the moviePath &"output.txt",0)--Open the file with R/W access
      delete(myFile) --deletes the file
      createFile(myFile, the moviePath &"output.txt") --creates the file again
      openFile(myFile,the moviePath &"output.txt",0) --Open the file with R/W access
      mySaveString = member("input").text --puts the contents of the field 'input' into the variable mySaveString
      mySaveString = jsStringToDOS(mySaveString) -- convert to Windows CRLF characters
      writeString(myFile,mySaveString) --writes text to the file
      closeFile(myFile) -- Close the file
      myFile = 0 -- Dispose of the instance

  • Problem with Photoshop CS5. Memory and Hard disk space Mac OSX

    Just got CS5 Master Suite.  Whenever I open photoshop it takes a ton of memory 1 gig +. When I open  files it takes up more and more until it takes up all my memory and hard  disk space. I open a simple multi layered file that is 25 megs in size  to work on it. Before I know it photoshop is taking 20gigs+ of my hard  disk space along with 3+ gigs of system memory. Is there a memory  problem in photoshop cs5?
    Thanks!
    Joseph
    UPDATE:
    So I just opened the 25 meg file  in photoshop cs5 and watched my free space on my hard drive go down 8  gigs the instant I opened it. It went from 27 gigs of freespace to 19  instantly. As I open more files and close others it works till my harddrive goes to zero space... stalls the computer big time. Only way to correct it is to quit photoshop cs5 and wait a few minutes for the space to return... and it takes a few minutes for it all to return.
    I am running a Macbook Pro with OSX 10.6., 4 gigs of ram on board.
    anyone else having simular problems?

  • Anyone has a problem with a Samsung M3 1TB portable hard disk in Mountain Lion?

    I was using this hard disk in Lion with Time Machine, but a while after the update to Mountain his stop to work.
    Anyone has the same problem? I already search in the Samsung/Seagate web site for any problem related, but without any luck.
    If this question is in the wrong community, let me now.
    Thanks for any information

    PS: Any English correction just tell me =]

    I can no longer even 'see' my Samsung disk in the Disk Utility and I don't know what to do. If I could reformat it and sacrifice the files that I've probably lost that would be ok, as it was my back-up drive. This is frustrating

  • Problem (sort of) deleting photos from external hard disk.

    Hi. (Most likely) because of moving my photos from the C:/drive to an external HD, I get the following message whenever I try to delete photos "the files are on a volume that does not support the recycle bin lightroom. Would you like to delete them immediately?". Any suggestions of solutions or work-arounds for this?

    Network shares do not support recycle bins under windows, so you just have to confirm the dialog to delete without moving to trash.

  • Connect external hard disk with iMovie

    I bought a new external hard disk and would like to connect that with iMovie.  The disk is formatted with Mac format.  When I start iMove, I can see the hard disk appeared in the Event Library.  However, I cannot move the file into it and there is a yellow triangle signal appeared.  Would you please kindly advise how to deal with it?  Many thanks!

    Hi
    The disk is formatted with Mac format.
    Mac can open and use many different formatting's - but for Video only one works (as I know off)
    • Video - Mac OS Extended (hfs)  (journaled or not)
    Not - UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for much BUT NOT FOR VIDEO.
    Else - there is a size problem too
    I just bought a 2Tb HD and was not able to format it unless I partitioned it into smaller volumes - I think that about 750Gb is OK so I made 4x500Gb. Then it was formatted OK.

  • Moving iPhoto library to external hard disk

    I am attempting to move my iPhoto library to my new external hard disk. Moving the pictures is not the problem, it is telling iPhoto where the new library is located. I dont have leopard yet so I dont have iPhoto '08. I looked up how to move my library in "iPhoto help" but it didnt help me too much. It says to click "choose library", but I can't that option anywhere. Any help would be hot. Thanks.

    acmethunder
    If you want to move the iPhoto Library, move the iPhoto Library Folder. I'm not sure what the story with PhotoBooth is, I never use it - but trial and error might be in order. However, that preferences in iTunes is NOT to move the library, but rather to change the location that files are ripped to... not the same thing. To move the iTunes library have a read of this:

  • External hard disk - transfer library

    I've bought a new external hard disk and would like to transfer my complete library to that disk and thus refer to/and work on the external disk whenever I open iPhoto. Is this possible and how do I transfer the complete library?

    Hi Anne,
    Copy the ENTIRE iPhoto Library folder to a Mac formatted external drive.
    Launch iPhoto while holding down the Option key.
    At the prompt, choose to open another library.
    Navigate to the library on the external and highlight it.
    Hit the "open" button
    iPhoto will open the library on the external and from now on will use this library to import images to. This will now be your working library. Make sure everything is working correctly and everything is fine in the library.
    You can then delete the library on the internal if you wish.

  • Problems with iPhoto after exporting library to external hard disk

    Hello all,
    I am using iPhoto 8 on an iBook G4. I recently attempted to back up my iPhoto library to an external hard disk. I did this by dragging the iPhoto library to the external hard disk. I did not delete the library on my own computer. Since I've done this, iPhoto has not been problematic. For instance, when I attempt to open an event on my computer, I can not see the thumbnails of all the photo's in the event - iPhoto will display each individual photo in sequence. If I want to print a picture, I have to export the entire event - I can't just drag the thumbnail to my desktop. Also, when I attempt to upload new pictures from my camera it produces an error.
    Does anyone know what might be going on? I need to be able to access my photo's, so can anyone give me some advice on how to fix whatever I've done?
    Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

    Gina2008
    iPhoto will display each individual photo in sequence.
    There's a slider lower right of the iPhoto Window - drag it left.
    Why are you exporting to Print?
    when I attempt to upload new pictures from my camera it produces an error.
    What does the error say?
    As for accessing your pics:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    Regards

  • Problem with USB External Hard Disk Drive

    I have similar problem with hard disk MK6025GAS in Sweex casing connected via USB as Raistlfiren in this post but I am not sure if it has something to do with kernel. The problem is that when I plug the hard disk via USB it is not even shown with in /dev/ or by fdisk -l. I had similar problems with the drive before but it was always shown in /dev.
    I got same output from dmesg as Raistlfiren in the post before

    The only thing I understand from these logs is that the disk is blocked, therefore not listed in /dev.
    Assuming the newer kernel problems I could try to use some older live linux CD to see if that would work. I am also thinking of connecting this hard drive directly to my laptop, using live linux CD and maybe check the output of hdparm. Is there anything else I could check or try?
    Thank you for any help or suggestions

    Thank you nTia89 for response. Sorry for not providing enough information.
    I believe the problem is not system dependent. I have dual boot with windows and there the disk has also problems. However, I do have Arch32 with Kernel 2.6.30, using Gnome. hal and dbus are also running.
    I did not tried to connect the disk to the computer directly, I will try it today.
    Yesterday I have used SystemRescueCD 0.4.1 with Kernel 2.6.22. I wanted to see if it will be recognized by the system and placed in /dev/. Yes it was. This means that the problem highlighted in Gentoo forum can be true, but it doesn't solve my problem. I have tried to connect the drive several times to Arch and it was not shown in /dev/sd*, in SystemRescueCD it was placed as /dev/sdb. Now I am sure that the partition table is screwed up.
    So I have started to play with the drive in SystemRescueCD with TestDisk and FixDiskTable but without success.

    TestDisk found only Linux partitions with 43Gb while disk had only one 60Gb partitioned with FAT32/NTFS.
    Also recognized 64 heads, 57231 cylinders and 32 sectors (same as from fdisk -l), which obviously differs from manufacturer disk geometry.

    This string "FfEeSsNnBbUu" was repeating there for longer time and it was most probably related to debugging or a verbose mode of fixdisktable
    As I have mentioned I will try to connect the disk directly to the computer and see what will happen.
    Shall I try to correct the disk geometry to the one specified by manufacturer? Is it possible?
    Any suggestions?

  • HT1391 I had all of my music on an external hard drive that failed. I have iTunes Match so all of my music was synced with the "cloud". How do I now download and save all of my music back down on a new external hard drive?

    I had all of my music on an external hard drive that crashed. I have iTunes Match so all of my music was synced in the cloud. How do I now re-load my music back down onto a new external hard drive?

    Hey Rbe58!
    I believe this question can be answered by the information in the following article:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Access all your music anytime, anywhere with iTunes Match
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ph12492
    Play or download songs from iCloud
    You can play songs directly from iCloud, or you can download songs so you can play them when you’re not connected to the Internet.
    If a song is available in iCloud, it has a Download button next to it.
    To play the song, double-click it.
    To download the song, click the Download button.
    After you download a song to a computer, it remains in the computer’s iTunes library, even if you turn off iTunes Match.
    To only display downloaded songs in your iTunes library, choose View > Hide Music in the Cloud. This also hides any previous iTunes Store purchases you haven’t downloaded.
    For information about downloading and playing songs on an iOS device, see the documentation for the device.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
