Can I take external disk imaage with me?

I have been able to put some disk images on my external hardrive. I mount them sometimes in order to view via the DVD player.
Here's my question. If I want to "load" a disk image of something I've made on my Macbook in order to show someone. How do I do that?
Hope I'm clear.....Do I simply "copy" the disk image?
Appreciate your comments for future reference.....
Bill

Shippey - I made the Disk Image from Idvd. I guess it's true, however it is not .dmg. It is .img
Still think it will work O.K.?
Just copy to desktop for temporary use?
Thanks!

Can you use external hard drives with the HP Omni 10 5600US

Since this a Windows tablet, can you use external hard drives with the HP Omni 10 5600US?
I know there is a micro-sd reader for additional storage but can you use the usb for external hard drives like a regular pc?
I tried looking at the spec's for this tablet and it said the usb port was host only. I'm not sure what that means exactly.

Yes you can. You'll need to purchase a USB OTG (on-the-go) cable. I recommend using a drive that has its own power supply but I've successfully used small USB powered drives also.

I have lightroom. My photos are stored on an external disk drive with a backup disk. With iCloud, will all of my photos go to the cloud? Will I still need the external drives? Is the $9.99 per month for just one year or for always?

I am an amateur photographer and have lightroom. My photos are stored on an external disk drive with a backup disk. With iCloud, will all of my photos go to the cloud? Will I still need the external drives? Is the $9.99 per month for just one year or for always?

If the iTunes database files are on that drive, launch iTunes with the Shift key(Windows) or Option key(Mac OS X) held down, select Choose Library, and navigate to it. The computer may need to be authorized to play protected content, and if the library contains rented movies, those won't play.
If not, import the content to an iTunes library.

External disk problem with AVI files

Hi
I do have Premiere elements 7 installed on a Sony Vaio laptop with Vista.
I have just rendered (DV camera to AVI files) some 20 tapes to my external disk (usb and fire wire connection) and everyuthing worked perfect.
A week later Premiere complains that I have not the correct codec installed.
However AVI files stored on my laptop still works.
Someone that has a clue about this?
Second problem.
When renering the DV camera to AVI files directly to the laptop the dates works fine.
When i copy them to an external disk, the dates are replaced with todays date and I can not anymore see the shooting date.

Hi,
Thanks, the forum seems to be a good knowledgebase. And thanks for your fast reply.
The thing is that I have a external disk with firewire and USB input.
However the laptop has only one firewire connection, so when rendering I use the laptop firewire for my Sony DCR-TRV33E and connects the external disk with USB.
When I create my videos, I connect the external disk with firewire.
However the problem is the same even if I try with USB or Firewire.
BUT last week it worked with both?????

Can't see external disks on Finder

I can't see my external Storage (whether it be TimeMachine hard drive, USB sticks) in Finder (side bar). I see them in Disk Utility. I see them if I open "/Volumes/" but that's not really convenient. External Disks are enabled in sidebar.
Please see attached pictures for details
My system is also very slow. Would you recommend a clean install ?
And Yes

Move the mouse to the right of "Appareil" in the Finder sidebar. The option "show" should appear. Click on it.. et voilà! The disks are back!!!
Also a clean install did help me improving some perfomances. You may want to try Onyx first, and clean all caches. Don't forget to do a "repair permission" with Disk Utility or Onyx (it should be the same) before nything else.

How can i use external hard drive with mac and pc!

I've been using a Lacie external hard drive with my mac to keep the itunes library and other things since day one. Since i have a dvd with files for windows and an old pc without a dvd drive, i decided to copy and paste the content of the dvd to the external hard drive. The only problem now is that when i plug the external hard drive to pc, it won't open. I know it has to be formatted in a different way, but i need to find out the best solution!
Any idea?

You can format the external drive in Fat32 (which I don't recommend but is the most compatible between both platforms), or NTFS (which requires some work to get your Mac to recognize), or HFS+ (which requires special software on your PC so your PC can use it).
If you use this drive mostly with your Mac, get MacDrive for your PC:

If you use this drive mostly with your PC, here's some software for you Mac. I haven't tried this myself, but the professional reviews have been good:

Lightroom can't find external disk by itself

Since uprgrading to Lightroom 2 (currently 2.2) I'm having this strange problem (this is on a Macbook Pro (OSX 10.5.6).
I keep my photo's and my catalog on an external SATAlink harddrive. Often when I start Lightroom, it tells me that it can't find my catalog and gives me the option to manually browse for it. When I select my external drive, I notice that somehow there's been added a number to my external drive's name (the current name that LR uses is 'external disk 8', where the disks real name is just 'external disk'. The pattern is such that when I'll open LR tomorrow, LR will probably not be able to find my catalogue, and when I browse for it, I'll find that LR (or my OS?) has renamed my external disk to 'external disk 9'.
Also, LR hasn't been able to locate my catalogue backup folder (which is also on the external drive). I have to manually direct LR to the backup folder each time. I guess this is the same problem.
If anybody has a clue what the problem could be, I'd very much like to hear it. It's not a huge problem to browse for the external disk when LR starts, but it's anoying nevertheless...
Richard

Richard-
Delete your Prefs file, always make sure your external is mounted before launching LR, then launch by double clicking on the proper .lrcat file. I'd frankly change the name of my external. as anything that even looks like a default name is a no-no in my book.

I don't understand your post about the log off and log on times. I've
stored the data on a Netapp 3140 (NAS) so i can't logoff and logon
because it is not Windows. When i would like to set Full Control on a
higher folder then the one i've got problems with i still get acces
diened messages.....
I've never seen this in 6 years it is a realy big problem for my
company now....
As those data are on a NAS, how is that NAS presented to the Windows
server? Or is it a SAN (which I'd assume) in which case there should be
no dependency on the underlying filesystem.
BTW it is is really nasty to get full control over a folder, if you
don't have full control over it's parents folders. As already pointed
out you have to drill top down every parent folder to get access to the
desired subfolder. You can easily produce such a situation if you have
folders, where only one user has full access to (no Administrators
group) and this is the owner of those folders, too. Now remove that
user and you are in your situation.

HT5858 How come i can't take video any more with my Ipad after the last update

Howcome I can't take video anymore with my Ipad, after the last update

What happens when you try to take videos ? In the Camera app you should be able to slide the Video / Photo / Square options so that Video option lines up with the yellow dot to their left - does that not work ?

Can't find 'Enable Disk Use' with iTunes 9 on my iPod Touch

I have a 1st generation iPod Touch, and need to enable disk use, but can no longer find the option in iTunes 9! Can somebody please tell me how to do this? Thanks.
EDIT: Just found out that the iPod touch doesn't support disk use... Although I've found a hack that makes it work, Thanks anyway.
Message was edited by: johnthompson1993

You just be looking at instructions for the older iPods. None of the iOS devices such as the iPod touch have ever supported disk use. There are third-party utilities that purport to provide workarounds to allow such use, but I have no experience with any of them so I can't make any recommendations.

Can we join external Excel file with data to an existing report in BIP

Hi,
I have created a report in BIP and the output being previewed is in Excel.
ex : i'm trying to get emp_id , emp_name, emp_Address from a datasource called "EMPLOYEE_DEV".
Now i have an external excel file (which has data) containg emp_job_title, emp_id, emp_salary...............this data comes from a different datasource called DETAIL_DATABASE.......
My question - is it possible to join an external excel file (from different datasource - DETAIL_DATABASE) to an existing report in BIP(another datsource - EMPLOYEE_DEV ).
Coz at the end i have to show emp_id, emp_name, emp_Address, emp_job_title, emp_salary........by using emp_id as a join between these two.
Please help me with this.
Thanks.

Can you load the data from the excel file into a table that you can query against? If so, you can have two data models: one for the employee_dev and one for detail_database source and then use Concatenated SQL Data Source or you can have a single query with the data you need from both tables.
BI publisher allows you to use a file as a datasource, however I believe it has to be an XML file. You should be able to save the Excel file as XML; however if you want to concatenate the data with another data model with a sql query, the data generated has extra tags and I am not sure if you will be able to use it to create a template.
Hopefully others can chime in and provide any suggestions or experiences they have had in dealing with such situations.

How can I create a disk partiton with Lion?

Hello there:
I'm trying to create a partition to use it as scratch disk in my computer, but as i dont have copy of the Lion OS disk to start my computer to use the disk utility to create it, I need some feed back about this issue, can anyone help me.
The computer is a macBook pro 15" 2011

I'm trying to create a partition to use it as scratch disk in my computer, but as i dont have copy of the Lion OS disk to start my computer to use the disk utility to create it.
No need to. Open Disk Utiltiy in Applications->Utilities to create a partition.
Create new partitions on a disk
You may be able to create new partitions on a disk without losing any of the files on the disk. Each partition works like a separate disk. You may need to create a new partition if you want to install multiple operating systems on your computer. You can also create partitions to help organize your files.
As a precaution, back up your data before creating new partitions on your disk
Open Disk Utility, in the Utilities folder in Launchpad.
Select the disk where you want to create a new partition and click Partition.
Select an existing partition in the Volume Scheme list, and click Add (+).Disk Utility splits the partition into two, leaving the data from that partition in one of the new partitions. If the partition is less than half-full, Disk Utility creates two partitions of equal size. Otherwise, it creates one partition large enough for the data, and another partition with the remaining space.
Resize the partitions as needed.You can drag the dividers between the partitions in the Volume Scheme list, or you can select a partition in the Volume Scheme list, and then enter a value in the Size field.
Choose how to format the partitions that will be erased or created.For each new partition, select it, enter a name, and then choose a format.
Click Apply.

Can I control external midi devices with Garageband?

I would like to control my external effects unit ,a vox tonelab.
I want to be able to change patches at certain points in a track whilst recording .
Can I do this using midi ? if so how ?

What I know this isn't implemented in GarageBand. To work with midi and synthesizer's you have to by Logic or other similar products. Hope they will make full midi aviable on next version of GarageBand. Midi In will work efficiently and smooth. I have try with my old Casio VZ-11.

How can I take raw image files with my iPhone?

I want raw image files from my iPhone so that I can process them with ACR.

The phone only works in one resolution. You cannot reduce it. The back camera has a higher resolution than the front camera. That is in the specifications. You can check the camera information in the User Guide here. http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
