Can i expand the flash drive?

is it possible to expand my flash drive. i am a new user to apple and i was not knowing the drive is only 64gb

If you bought the computer directly from Apple within the last 14 days you can return it and purchase one with a larger drive, otherwise you'll either have to figure out how to live with the small drive or totally replace it with a higher capacity drive. See OWC for typical offering and prices.

  • Can I unplug the flash drive while installing OS X?

    I'm installing OS X 10.8 from USB flash drive.
    While it's "Installing OS X On the disk Macintosh HD" can I unplug the flash drive or does it need to be left in for the duration of the install?
    Thanks.

    The flash drive version would be a new purchase ($69).

    Hold down the Option key while you boot your Mac. Then, it should show you a selection of devices. Click your flash drive and it will boot from that.

  • I bought a used macbook air,  it didn't come with the flash drive to do a factory reset.  Can I download the info needed and save it to my own flash drive and then do a factory reset?  If not what can I do?

    If it originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, click here, phone Apple, and order a replacement.
    If it originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, restart it with the Option, Command, and R keys held down.

  • Can I load adobe flash drive on the I-pad or is there an alternative?

    can I load adobe flash drive on the I-pad or is there an alternative?

    Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad - and Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and they've recently announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, and there is the built-in YouTube app.

  • Flashing file folder - can't find the hard drive-imacG3 - 9.1

    When I attempted to start up I got a flashing "?" in a folder. I loaded the hardware test CD and everthing tested fine but no hard drive was listed. I loaded the software install CD and got the message"disk is unreadable. Do you want to inintialize". Options were Standard 9.5 GB or extended. Is there anything I can do other than initialize and lose everything? If I do initialize should it be standard or extended? If the hardware test can't find the hard drive how did the software install disk recognize it. Any ideas? Thanks

    Unfortunately both of those must run from a bootable CD or bootable device that isn't the startup volume. And, by the way, both of those applications do cost money.
    TechTool Pro comes from Micromat and you would need version 3.0.9 (final for Mac OS9) from them.
    DiskWarrior is a bit tricky as the CD is bootable only in Mac OS 10 and can cripple an iMac Slot Loading machine that hasn't had the Firmware update. They include an older Mac OS 9 version on that CD however you would have to install it into something that is bootable.

  • HT1751 I need to uninstall and reinstall iTunes (it won't let me update). So, how do I copy or back up my iTunes library of over 1,500 songs? Can I use a Flash Drive to do so?

    I need to uninstall and reinstall iTunes (it won't let me update). I have IE 8 on Windows XP, and iTunes 10 something. In my Program files list I see iTunes and iTunes (2) and even iPod and iPod (2) where a tech had to back up and do this for me before. I'm just trying to fix it all. I keep getting the "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in the box below." I can even run a search and find the folder, but it gives me the same error message. I was planning on using the Microsoft Fix-It tool  to help uninstall then Reinstall iTunes. But I need to backup my library. So, how do I copy or back up my iTunes library of over 1,500 songs? Can I copy the folder to desktop or can I use a Flash Drive to backup my music? I don't want to do anything until I know for sure how I can backup my songs, and then reinstall them into iTunes. Thanks for any help.

    Ok, thanks that helps. I don't have an external hard drive though. What about backing up through 'the cloud'? I'm just wondering since my husband syncs his iPod to the PC through iTunes and he's worried that he will lose all the songs on his iPod if the library is lost from iTunes and he tries to 'sync' it up again. I'm not exactly sure how to  'copy the entire iTunes folder' either. I kinda suck at this unless I have step by step instructions, which I haven't found yet on iTunes help or other sources.
    The only way I know how to back anything up is by going back to a restore point, etc. (as stated before, we don't have an external hard drive.)
    Thanks for the info.

  • Can I use a flash drive to back up my iTunes?

    Did a search on backing up my iTunes, and only get the option of backing up to a disc (Which is what I've done over the past 3 years. I now have 6 discs accumulated).
    Can I use a flash drive to back up my apps, music, and videos?
    I only have a total of 1.6 GB of apps, music, & video.
    If so, would I then be able to transfer everything from the flash to a new hard drive when I replace the current one?
    Thanks for any advice or help.

    The backup built into iTunes works only with CDs and DVDs, but you can back up onto a flash drive or hard drive manually. Just drag the entire iTunes folder (normally in your user's Music folder) onto the backup device.
    would I then be able to transfer everything from the flash to a new hard drive when I replace the current one?
    Yes. If you back up the entire iTunes folder, you should be able to just copy it back to the new drive in the same location (user -> Music folder).

  • I converted aif files to mp3 files in I tunes so I could put them on a flash drive.  Now when I transfer an album to the flash drive I get both the aif files and the mp3 files in the flash drive.  How do I get the iTunes to only copy the smaller file?

    My suggestion to use the smart playlist was more along the lines of making one list with rules to show everything in your library as long as it was kind "mpeg" (= mp3).
    Smart playlists cannot be edited manually, only by changing the rules.  You can use them as the basis for another smart playlist though.
    There is added overhead to using smart playlists, so don't go overboard.

  • Can I use a flash drive in my DV6-1320SD?

    Can I use a flash drive  in my DV6-1320SD?
    And if so, what specs do I need to look for?
    As far as I know, a flash drive is additional to the existing hard drive, not a replacement. Could you keep the old hard drive as a seperate data drive, inside the laptop, and work from the flash drive?

    Not the way you are thinking. Your model is a generation behind the laptops that have a place for a miniature solid state drive. The only "flash" (solid state) drive you can use is one that is the same size and connection as a regular laptop hard drive (2.5 inch SATA) and it would replace, not be in addition to, the regular hard drive. Having said that, the price of solid state drives is just now becoming somewhat reasonable and the performance gains have to be seen to be appreciated. 
    Post back if you want to explore buying, installing and loading software on a solid state drive. 

  • Can I download adobe flash drive on iPad to Crete book on shutterfly

    Can I download adobe flash drive on iPad to Crete book on shutterfly

    Flash is not available on iPad. Apple doesn't allow it. You need to use whatever app they may provide to that end or use the normal web interface.

  • Can I replace the 20G drive in a 2070NR to have two 1T drives?

    I have an Envy 17 (2070NR) and it has a 1T drive and a 20G drive.  Can I replace the 20G drive with another 1T drive?

    The second, 20g drive is a flash module that is designed to speed up the system and hold important files so that the mechanical hard drive is not accessed as often, leading to better battery life, etc. blah blah. I am not sure the 20 gig drive is a standard SATA interface. You might want to look here:

    You will need the hard drive caddy for a second drive I believe.

    Are you certain your work is compute-bound?
    Insufficient RAM memory or too much competition for too few drives causes a system to have unused processor power, but complete the work too slowly.
