Format new GTech so it does not cause BOOT ISSUES (follow up to previous post)?

someone on a previous thread (name is escaping me but they are always an awesome help) clued me in to the idea that my GTech external drive was preventing proper Option Boot on startup due to something in the ware on the drive.
i now have a new replacement drive (same exact drive) and i am wondering if simply formatting the drive in some way will avoid this issue or if in fact it was simply something bad having to do with the drive or if in fact it is likely that the new drive will have the same problem.
unfortunatly i cannot find the thread (ATM) where they gave me a specific question to ask of the drive manufacturer.
anyway, i am wondering if i should sell the replacement and get a new brand or if i should send the old one back and use this new one.
TIA

Just to say there ARE lots of Apps on BlackBerry World, so potential BB purchasers should not let that stop them, and some very good free ones, excellent -- BlackBerry Travel is really good, and OsmAnd maps are fabulous, big to download, but when you get it you'll be amazed. Just download a provincial or smaller map to start, because they are huge files and very detailed, but lots of trails and paths are on them... good for park trails and such.

  • I have Adobe photoshop cs5. need to update camera raw, cause my camera raw is  2010and does not read my camera,  I went out and downloaded the new one and it does not link to adobe photoshop cs5

    I have moved my Photoshop CS5 to my traveling computer,a Surface Pro 3.  I have photoshop loaded but in trying to look at raw images it says my camera raw does not support the sony alpha 65 which is what I have.  I went out and tried to download the newest raw version and even went out and did a zipfile download and it will not update my current version.  What should I do

    I have 6.0.  Tried to download newest verion and it will not download.  Went out and then downloaded a zipfile and it still will not download, thus cannot look at my raw pictures.
    Thanks, John

  • New Airport Extreme (2014) does not see USB Drive

    Just fired up my new 2014 Airport Extreme and attached a Toshiba 3 TB USB Drive. My new (late 2013 iMac) does not see the new drive in Disk Utility.
    The Extreme works in all other ways; ie, as a router, as a wireless node.
    It came to me formated as a Windows drive, so I attached it directly to my MacBook Pro (which saw the drive) and reformated it as a Mac Drive (Journaled, GUILD). It showed up just fine on the MacBook Pro desktop.
    When I reattach it to the Airport Extreme, it still does NOT show up in Disk Utility on the iMac.
    Help Please

    When I reattach it to the Airport Extreme, it still does NOT show up in Disk Utility on the iMac.
    That drive will not show up in Disk Utility on the Mac.....since the Toshiba hard drive becomes a network drive when it is attached the AirPort Extreme.
    Disk Utility will not display a network drive. It will only display drives that are connected directly to your iMac via USB, FireWire, etc.
    Check using AirPort Utility to see if the AirPort Exteme recognizes the drive.
    Open AirPort Utility, click the AirPort Extreme icon, then click Edit
    Click the Disks tab at the top of the next window that appears
    The drive will appear here if it is recognized by the AirPort Extreme.
    In the example below, my WD Drive is connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme.

  • I tried to rename a file, it gave me an error message (can't remember the number - 43??) and then the file disappeared from the original folder. When I do a search, the file comes up under the new name, but it does not show a path, and even though preview

    I tried to rename a file, it gave me an error message (can't remember the number - 43??) and then the file disappeared from the original folder. When I do a search, the file comes up under the new name, but it does not show a path, and even though preview shows the contents, I can't open the document (Powerpoint) and I can't move the document. I tried "Copy" and paste but it doesn't work. I tried "Share" with Airdrop and iChat, but the file is inaccessible. When i try to rename the file, it says the filename is too long.
    When I try to open it, it says the alias is not good, and asks if I want to fix the alias. I'm afraid to do that and lose all access to this document.
    Right now, it feels like a ghost document - it is on the computer intact, but it is in an undisclosed location and inaccessible.
    Please help!!

    I was able to resolve this by repairing permissions, even though no permissions error was listed specifically for that file.
    I could also have recovered it through Time Machine, but I'm interested in knowing how not to have this happen again!
    I was afraid of rebooting and possibly losing track even of the ghost.
    I did not try EasyFind - I'll keep that in mind next time.
    Thanks for all the comments.

  • I re-set password using specific user ID but when I put new password in it does not say incorrect password  it just spins and spins never accepting it.  What is the problem?

    Update on my problem connecting in Itunes with my Airport Express. Not sure if anything I tried made a difference
    but I finally got the Pop up window saying this device requires a Password. I entered the password and I can once again use the Airport Express as a remote speaker.

  • TS3989 New MacAir but  photostream does not work.  Message though everything is on. "In order to use Photo Stream, you have to be signed into your iCloud account in System Preferences." And,

    New computer but Photostream does not work.  I am signed into my account but get the following message:  In order to use Photo Stream, you have to be signed into your iCloud account in System Preferences.  I go to system preferences and then get a message that says that my account cannot be accessed.  However, I am using my icloud account for email and other items and it works fine.  Any thoughts?

    Are you getting this messages in iPhoto? If so try the following (again?):
    Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.  Then log back in and re-enable, respectively.  That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • Add new tab button does not appear at the right of the previous tab

    Just upgraded to Firefox 4 and the plus sign (T) for a new tab does not appear on the right of the previous tab as it had in earlier versions. I thought it was there briefly after I upgraded but it's not there anymore. How do I get it back? I did download the extension "new tab at the end" but that didn't help....

    That button should be available by default. However, if you use tab related Add-ons it may not show up as expected. You can add it back by right clicking on the navigation bar, clicking Customize, then drag the New Tab icon to the right end of tab bar.
    If that doesn't work, please try starting Firefox in Safemode to see if add-ons are indeed interfering.

    How can I save the new password if popup does not appear?

    The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.
    You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

  • I am setting up a new iTunes account and do not have a credit card.  When I am setting the new account up it does NOT give me an option of "none" in lieu of an actual credit card. What do I do?

    I am setting up a new iTunes account and do not have a credit card.  When I am setting the new account up it does NOT give me an option of "none" in lieu of an actual credit card. What do I do?

    How did you create it ? There are instructions on this page for creating a new account (the instructions won't work with existing existing account) without giving credt card details : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    e.g. if currently logged into an account then log of it, then find a free app in the store, click on its free 'price', and you should then be able to create a new account during the 'buying' process and get 'none' as an option on the payments screen
