Download to hard drive?
How do I download to a connected portable hard drive, rather than my MacBook Air hard drive, all TV shows I've purchased?
Various options with varying degrees of complexity. One is to put all media and/or the whole library on the external. Another is to relocate just the type of files you wish to and then stay on top of this each time you download new files.

Blocking downloads to hard drive, but not flash drives
Blocking downloads to hard drive, but not flash drives
A nonprofit has asked me to configure new Windows 7 computers so that all content is BLOCKED from the hard drive, but any downloads may be downloaded to the individual's flash drive.
The nonprofit allows individuals to play games, check e-mails, but we have a problem with them trying to upgrade Firefox, Google, etc.
They want all configuration to the DEFAULT STATUS after a person log off the computer....no upgrades to any programs!
I will occasionally upgrade programs once a month or so, as the volunteer administrator.
They have changed the controls from Windows ME and XP, when I was a computer programmer and installer (I also worked during Windows 3.11, 95 and 98/98 SE versions as well)...
Anyone help me, please?1. You can change security with cacls function. However if you do it in wrong way, you can cut the branch you are sitting on:

2. If you are working in Active Directory, consider Group Policy
3. Consider third pty software for granular access control (DeviceLock,...)
4. There is nearly nothing that you can transfer from previous technologies. (Even nice
steady state in Windows XP has no continuation. Consider
kiosk mode in Windows 8.1)

My Power supply has gone out, if I get a new desktop can I download the hard drive of the old to the new without the power supply
If you call around, you might be able to find an apple authorized repair shop in your area that can offer to put pull the hard dive out of the old computer and put it into an external hard drive.

Downloading old hard drive from crashed computer
Is there a ESATA connection on my HP Envy 20. I'm trying to download the hard drive from my old computer. I removed the hard drive and purchased a BlacX Hard Drive ESATA Docking Station. If this isn't the correct way to download it, what do i need to use?
When requesting assistance, lease provide the complete HP model name and/or product number of the computer in question.
Most likely your computer doesn't have an eSATA port but should have USB 2.0 and/or 3.0 ports. If the "Thermaltake BlacX eSATA Docking Station" has a USB port in addition to the mentioned eSATA port and your old hard drive is a 2.5" or 3.5" SATA hard drive, then you will be able to use the docking station. If it doesn't have a USB port or your hard drive is IDE/PATA, then you will need a diffferent external device.
Please send KUDOs

? cannot drag document from downloads to hard drive
I suddenly cannot drag a file, any file, from my Downloads folder on my Dock to my "hard drive".
I am hoping that the file that a Microsoft tech had me trash isn't the reason... I was having a problem with Excel for Mac and he had me delete a certain file that he said would disable a Lion feature that automatically opens last used docs upon launch of Excel. Thanks for any tips.Geez, I just realized you may have missed a crucial point I made in my original post:
I cannot drag folders from my Downloads folder **on my Dock***....
which I'm sure I've read in more than one place that I should be able to do.
But then... I went to my Finder's left side menu, to Downloads, found my file there, and then did the copy and paste routine to move it to my Documents folder--it works!
One solution. Thanks to you inspiring me to dig around some more.
BUT, what about my original question? Why doesn't it work? I'm almost positive that it did at one time. -
HT1391 Purchased items - icloud downloads to hard drive
I have a new MacBook Air and have just purchased my first movie since having this Mac. The purchase has gone to icloud only it seems and I can't find how to download it to my itunes library on my hard drive. Have tried "check for available downloads" in the store menu but this just keeps listing the film over and over again in the purchased playlist and they are all 'greyed' out. I can play the movie on my Mac and on my apple TV via icloud but would rather have it on my hard drive. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or how I need to set this up so that all purchases go to my itunes library on my hard drive?

Mountain Lion download corrupts hard drive!!
I am trying to re-download Mountain Lion to create a boot jump drive so I can reinstall Mountain Lion clean. After download I can not open "mount" the installEDS.dmg file. Error pops up stating invalid checksums and I can not complete the process of creating the boot jump drive. I check Disk Utility/Verify Disk and see these results: Disk Utility/Verify Disk reports, Incorrect block count for file installEDS.dmg, Volume Bitmap needs minor repair, The volume is now corrupt and needs repair.
So.. I restart the computer through recovery hard drive option so that I can repair the disk. I am able to successfully repair the disk. The computer is still working.
I repeat the Mountain Lion down load process, attempt to create the boot jump drive and again.... installEDS.dmg will not mount, invalid checksums. I check Disk Utility/Verify Disk. The volume is now corrupt and needs repair. I repeated this 4 times (I have a slow connection DSL 6mb). Same results! I repeated once on a different day (App Store server problems maybe?). Same results!
The reason I want to do a clean install of Mountain Lion is because I have constant kernel panics. Kernel panics are (4 to 5) in an hour. When this happens I attempt to restart the computer. After second computer restart (kernel panic upon first restart attempt), the computer will last a day without a kernel panic! I have attempted to address the kernel panics, (removing 3rd party programs, latest updates, etc.) I can not pin down the problem. I have experienced kernel panics after sleep, kernel panics when shutting down or restart, kernel panics after turning off blue tooth, basically kernel panics under every application so far. I have ran the hardware test, (from snow leopard CD), no hardware errors. Ran memtest from single user mode, no memory errors. I do realize that these programs may not catch bad hardware.. and will be contacting OWC for memory and drive support as another avenue. Computer specifications are:
MacBook Pro 7.1, Mid2010, 2.4 Ghz, Snow Lepoard 10.6.8, OWC 8g Memory purchased Jan 2012 (Offically 4 supported), OWC 240g SSD purchased May 2012 Everything worked flawless until mountain lion upgrade!
So I would like to reinstall Mountain Lion clean, but can not, because I can not down load a clean copy of Mountain Lion. My only thought is to install Snow Leopard on another drive and re-download Mountain Lion on that.
Any thoughts on these questions: Is the application corrupted? Does my current install of Mountain Lion corrupt new downloads? Is it my hardware? (Will schedule a visit with Apple store as well, when I can get to Chicago)
In the mean time anyone else experiencing this? If so any other suggestions? Any help would be much appreciated!This is one from yesterday:

I down loaded my entire contents of my desk top hard drive to my lap top. Now I don't know where my original files and pictures are. How do I find them or down load just what I am missing with out losing what I just installed ?
Hi Again, Well I found Carbon Copy Clone on my old hard drive so I didn't even need to download it. I just dragged it onto my desktop and I did as you said. Using CCC and within the folder of users which has my folder of old hard drive there now shows a file called.autodiskmounted (whatever that means) and then it has a version of my hard drive below that called hard drive 1, which has nothing, but above both of these folders, there is a folder with an old user name which shows up empty on the hard drive when I search it, but actually shows lots of folders on the CCC. So without getting too excited, it lists some folders and amongst them are folders I cant see normally in the old hard drive, like my safari settings and favourites, and movies music and pictures. However in the movies pictures and music folders I can only see a blackish square that looks a bit like a blank screen with the text.localised after it .
Does this mean anything to you / Is there apossibility they may be there? When I selected my new laptop as the destination i got this message below so I did not proceed any further as I'm not sure it will back up the files I need..
To avoid system instability, CCC has applied a filter that will exclude system files from the backup task.
If you would like to restore your Mac OS X system files, restart your computer from the backup volume and try the backup task again.
If you are trying to restore a single item or folder, click the "?" button for additional suggestions.
Is it worth giving it a try? Thanks for this btw, its further than I've got before!! -
Is it recommended to download a hard drive cleaner?
It is wise to download software like Mac Clean?
How to maintain a Mac
1. Make redundant backups, keeping at least one off site at all times. One backup is not enough. Don’t back up your backups; make them independent of each other. Don’t rely completely on any single backup method, such as Time Machine. If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.
2. Keep your software up to date. In the Software Update preference pane, you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don’t mind letting them phone home. Otherwise you have to check yourself on a regular basis. This is especially important for complex software that modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Before installing any Apple update, you must check that all such modifications that you use are compatible.
3. Don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” “extenders,” “cleaners,” "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this sort of stuff is useless, or worse than useless.
The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
As a rule, the only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Use your computer; don't fuss with it.
Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it. Otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
The free anti-malware application ClamXav is not crap, and although it’s not routinely needed, it may be useful in some environments, such as a mixed Mac-Windows enterprise network.
4. Beware of trojans. A trojan is malicious software (“malware”) that the user is duped into installing voluntarily. Such attacks were rare on the Mac platform until sometime in 2011, but are now increasingly common, and increasingly dangerous.
There is some built-in protection against downloading malware, but you can’t rely on it — the attackers are always at least one day ahead of the defense. You can’t rely on third-party protection either. What you can rely on is common-sense awareness — not paranoia, which only makes you more vulnerable.
Never install software from an untrustworthy or unknown source. If in doubt, do some research. Any website that prompts you to install a “codec” or “plugin” that comes from the same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy. Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be acquired directly from the developer. No intermediary is acceptable, and don’t trust links unless you know how to parse them. Any file that is automatically downloaded from a web page without your having requested it should go straight into the Trash. A website that claims you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, is rogue.
In OS X 10.7.5 or later, downloaded applications that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked from loading by default. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before you do so.
Because of recurring security issues in Java, it’s best to disable it in your web browsers, if it’s installed. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This action is mandatory if you’re running any version of OS X older than 10.6.8 with the latest Java update. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Don't install Java unless you're sure you need it. Most users don't.
5. Don't fill up your boot volume. A common mistake is adding more and more large files to your home folder until you start to get warnings that you're out of space, which may be followed in short order by a boot failure. This is more prone to happen on the newer Mac notebooks that come with an internal SSD instead of the traditional hard drive. The drive can be very nearly full before you become aware of the problem. While it's not true that you should or must keep any particular percentage of space free, you should monitor your storage consumption and make sure you're not in immediate danger of using it up. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the startup volume for normal operation.
Use a tool such as the free application OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the most space. Move rarely-used large files to secondary storage.
6. Relax, don’t do it. Besides the above, no routine maintenance is necessary or beneficial for the vast majority of users; specifically not “cleaning caches,” “zapping the PRAM,” "resetting the SMC," “rebuilding the directory,” “running periodic scripts,” “dumping log files,” “scanning for viruses,” "purging memory," or “repairing permissions.” Such measures are either completely pointless or are useful only for solving problems. They're not for preventive maintenance.
The very height of futility is running an expensive third-party application called “Disk Warrior” when nothing is wrong, or even when something is wrong and you have backups, which you must have. Disk Warrior is a data-salvage tool, not a maintenance tool, and you will never need it if your backups are adequate. Don’t waste money on it or anything like it. -
Old Purchases Not Re-Downloading Since Hard Drive Format
Awhile back, I decided to reformat my hard drive due to certain personal effects being compromised. I've re-downloaded iTunes, and my old purchases (which show up in my purchase history) will not restore themselves. I've tried re-"buy"ing them (as far as I can go without actually telling it to charge my card), but that doesn't work either.
Does anyone know how in the **** I can get all of my old songs back?
Thanks in advance.Yes, basic indeed. It is also assumed that Time Machine will work as advertised. My HDD crashed last night, Apple store fixed it today, and I excitedly bring home my comp and plug in time machine drive... oh wait it never backed up, just made a 3mb file. So for months my Time Machine has been telling me backups are complete, and all I have is a 3MB file that the computer can't even read.
So glad I switched to Apple. And really glad for smart guys like you. -

Or, you can buy the SD version and watch it on this computer" ),
I do not want to buy the SD version, I have already bought th HD version, I would like to store it on the external drive and stream to the Apple TV or my Ipad4, in the dialogue it says I can transfer to another device, only it will not download,
can anybody please help with this? as I beleive I should be able to store it on the drive ready to play to those devices,
if you need anymore info please respond,
many thanks in advance,
TomSeriously, does no one know the answer to this? Do apple guys read these forums I have sent direct to apple too and no answer, please someone ,can you help
Frustrated thank you -
Tracking software downloads from hard drive?
Is there a way to see if software I.E. apps plugins etc. have been downloaded of of a hard drive? In other words can I look at something in OS X that would tell me say FCP was copied from my drive to another drive on day xx/xx/xxxx at xx:xx pm?
Short reply: It depends.
If by "download" you mean "downloaded through the FTP or HTTP server", then yes, you can simply consult the respective log files.
If by "download" you mean that some Trojan/Virus/SpyWare sent your application somewhere, then no, these applications (should they even exist, out in the wild, for Mac OS X) don't tend to leave a friendly note on what they have been doing.
If by "download" you mean that you have enabled File Sharing, and want to know whether somebody is accessing your harddisk that way, I am unsure, but do not know any easy solution to see which files were "downloaded"; however in this case I would suggest disabling File Sharing and/or using better security measures, at least passwords and "proper" permissions.
If by "downloaded off of a hard drive" you mean that the hard drive was physically moved around, and you want to know which files somebody you gave the drive to accessed, the answer is that there is no way to detect this [since the atime can be faked].
Any other variant you are referring to? -
Excessive hard drive activity during downloads
I'm wondering if anyone else gets excessive hard drive activity during iTunes downloads?
I've just downloaded an album and while the download was active, access to the relevant hard drive ran at ~90% access time, with an occasional drop between tracks. Pause the download, activity stops; restart and back up to 90%. As soon as the download finishes, again, back to normal.
Have tested downloading files to the same hard drive using other apps and it doesn't happen (eg. downloaded the OpenOffice installer with a browser and activity is down around 1-5%.
Using iTunes 11.0.2.25 on Windows 8 64 bit (plenty of RAM available during the download). Hard drive is an NTFS formatted SATA 3.5" (ie. bog standard non-SSD hard drive, nothing unusual).
Is anyone else seeing this? Wondering if it's a common bug or specific to this machine. If yes, is there anything we can do or is it just a bug in itunes?+1.
In fact my downloads appear to be I/O bound - they come no where near to max'ing out my Internet connection. It's way faster to download stuff directly to my iPad. -
HELP. External hard drive suddenly won't show up on Mac.
So, I left for a few minutes and when I got back, there was that warning on my screen that said the disc wasn't ejected properly, etc. Which was weird because the drive was still plugged in fine. Anyway, when this happens, I usually just pull the hard drive out then plug it back in and it works fine but now it won't show up on the desktop or on the disk utility I got it to show up on disk utility once, but the subheading under the hard drive was greyed out. I could click it but when I tried to run Verify or Repair, nothing would happen. It would show up on the history as "repaired disc" but NOTHING. And I am honestly freaking out Please help, anyone
I'd have to agree with WZZZ. That sounds like either a bad connection, bad cable, or faulty supply. The port could be bad as well but the cable either being bad or not properly plugged in or maybe even worn out. When the "disk ejected" message shows up it's usually because somehow the cable was yanked out of the system while it was plugged in. Intermittenet connections in the cable, particularly in supply lines between the drive and the unit can cause this to happen as well...it's as if you unplugged the external hard drive from the system for a very short time, but the system still picks it up and sees it as bad.
If worse comes to worse, download the hard drive troubleshooting book in the downloads section at:
