Help please with new ext. H.D.

Hi guys, i have an ext. H.D: where i want make two partition: one for winxp that i would lik to use to bootcamp windows from my mac (i´m selling my pc) and another for mac. I tried to follow istructons from this topic http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1465626&tstart=45 but i cannot see Partition in Disk Utility. My HD had NTFS partition and if i want inizialize the disk from a mac without partition it will erase all the NTFS partition and i will not be able to make an image c opy of my windows hd before i sell the pc. Is there any solution to format the hd but in two partition from the mac?
thanks!

If you want to use a partition with Windows systems, Disk Utility only supports FAT32 formatting, no NTFS. There may be some third party utilities enabling MacOS X to format, read and write this proprietary Microsoft format.
Once you have partitioned, formatted and installed the different O.S.'s to your liking, you can pick which one the Mac will boot from by pressing and holding the Option key just after the "bong" sound when rebooting. A screen will appear with an icon for each bootable volume detected by the bootloader; just pick the one you need. A HD may contain multiple bootable volumes.

  • Help please with New Computer Install

    Guys,
    I have searched for a similar topic but cant find anything to help that is exact.
    I have all my Itunes songs on a external HDD and my Ipod is updated.
    Now I bought a new PC, and want to link Itunes on the new PC with the songs on the ext HDD while still keeping all my playlists and ratings.
    I read somewhere that you copy a file off of the old HDD, but there was a note saying you could do that if the Windows profile was the same.
    On my old PC the user name was Kathy, on the new one it says Owner (kathy), I dont think thats exactly the same.
    I have installed Itunes on the new PC but have not hooked up the ipod for fear of messing something up.
    So what do I need to do
    Thanks

  • Help please with new airport extreme

    hello,
    my mother is using comcast internet and she wanted to add a wireless router. all the had before i went and got her a ae was the comcast modem with a ethernet wire coming out of it and going right into her laptop. i then installed the software for the router and have it wired up witch was the easy part. now i have the solid green light on the ae and my laptop (macbook pro) and her dell laptop both say we have wireless signal but nether computer can connect to the internet. both computers have full signal and they are even placed next to the ae so its not a long distance problem. what might be wrong here. again the green light is steadly on and the airport says full signal and so does the dell laptop. please help

    On the MBP, open Airport Utility, select the Airport Extreme from the left and press the manual select button. Once the Summery screen appears check the last line. If the IP address begins with 169, select the Internet tab from the top of the Airport utility window, and make sure the Connect Using is set to Ethernet and the IPv4 setting is Using DHCP. If those are the settings unplug the power from the modem and make sure all the lights go out (if you have a digital phone package with the cable company the power light may stay on in which case you'll need to remove the batteries from the modem) let that sit for 2 min and then power back on. That should reset the cache of the modem and solve you problem.

  • Help please with 2006 Macbook 13inch, for tv hook up.

    Help please with 2006 Macbook 13inch, to hook up to tv for streaming. The display works through VGA but the audio isn't working. Got a plug that goes into headphone jack on computer and connects into the audio jack on the back of tv but no sound. I'm not quite sure what the issue is, whether its the wrong plug, the tv, or the computer. Best Buy says this is the right plug and it seems that it would be, but who knows. If anyone has any experience in this, I would appreciate the help!

    Make sure those audio plugs are matched with the VGA plug. With your MacBook running something with audio switch between your sources on the TV Component, Composite and such. See if the sound is coming from another source. If so then you've got your audio plugs in the wrong jacks.
    Also could you post the make and model number of your TV.

  • Need Help Please with Flash Professional - No Cursor Change on Buttons/Links in Mac OS

    Hi Folks, I am relatively new to Flash Professional but I recently built a very nice flash website with very little problems.  I noticed after I uploaded my site to my server, that my mouse cursor did not change from an arrow to a finger on any of my buttons.  It did change on the hyperlinks, but not on the buttons.  Everything still worked fine but there was no indication to the user that an object was in fact an interactive button.  I found this code:  button1.buttonMode = true; button1.useHandCursor = true; and inserted it for all my buttons and that seemed to fix everything, I tested the site on firefox, ie, and safari.  I am using a PC with windows 7.  When I went to check the website on a Mac powerbook, the cursor did not change on any of the buttons and it does not change on any of my hyperlinks either.  I have searched all over trying to find a solution and have had no luck.  Can anyone please help me with this problem or point me in the right direction?  Any advice would be very much appreciated.  Thanks so much!!!

    Thank you so much for replying!  I did in fact let flash professional create the HTML page for the site and have not altered it at all.  Would you have any other suggestions as to why it's not displaying my links/buttons on a Mac?  I checked out the browsers Firefox, ie, and safari on my pc, but looking thru safari on the Mac, the cursor does not change on any of my links or buttons.  Thanks again so much for the reply, nice to hear from a human instead of reading thousands of posts!  Very much appreciated!!!!!

  • Urgent help please with MIDI pedal

    I just got an old awesome midi pedal called the X-15 Ultrafoot.
    The pedal has two expression pedals, and 10 pushbuttons/pads. (and two buttons to cycle through additional banks, and a "mode" and "bypass" button)
    Somebody please help I am on the verge to having amazing control.
    What I want to do is have each pushbutton be assigned to a parameter, which is easy to program. Then I want to make the expression pedal(s) also be assigned to that last selected parameter. How do I do this?
    How can I make the expression pedals control over the parameter remain exclusive to just the last selected parameter?!
    Somebody save me please thanks

  • Help please with Muvo TX

    I haven't used this for over a year now and it has some serious problems. . It doesn't detect the player when i plug it into the USB port2. When I turn on the Player it will say " File System Error "3. It won't show up as removable disk when I plug the player in the USB port4. I have lost the disc to installing the files... Cab anyone give me support and technical advice of what I should do. Please reply back ASAP, I wanna get back to using this great product!

    Hi Zenos
    Thanks for the PM; I'll reply to it here in case it can help someone else as well.
    Have you ever upgraded the firmware on your player? As you haven't used it for over a year then you will have quite an early version already on your player. I could just say load the latest version but some people have had trouble connecting after doing that so I won't!
    If you go to www.softpedia.com you can search for earlier versions of the TX FM firmware; I think .5.0 was one that people reverted to if they had problems with newer ones. Then go to the TX FM firmware download page here on the Creative site (Support, Downloads) and download the drivers package.
    Install the drivers first. Then connect your player while also holding in the Play button. This starts the player in Recovery Mode. A Windows New Hardware Wizard should then talk you through installing the Recovery Mode drivers.
    When the drivers have installed then run the .5.0 firmware files that you got from Softpedia. When upgrading there is a Format Data Area check box; check this box and, hopefully, everything will be OK when it is finished.
    If not then you might need to try again with the latest version of firmware from the Creative site.

  • Help please, with port forwarding settings

    I have an MSI RG60 wireless router (Ethernet hard wired to my XP Home PC) and don't know what settings to use for port forwarding, to enable my WinMX and BitTorrent clients to work successfully.
    I have the port numbers, and assume that this information goes in the Service Port box, i.e. 6699, or 6881-6889.
    I know which ports are TCP and which are UDP, but I don't know what IP address to enter or which Common Service Port type to choose. Can anyone help please?
    I'm pretty sure that other settings in my PC are OK as I have successfully been running a Belkin router for a couple of years, and have only replaced it with the new MSI unit due to reliability problems.

    It does indeed have port triggering, but it wants incoming and trigger port protocol info, along with trigger and incoming port numbers.
    How can I type ipconfig into either of teh clients...WinMx or Bit Torrent?

  • Help Please With iPod Player On My 3GS

    Hello, Could anyone help me with a problem with my iPod part of my iPhone 3GS. The iPod will start to play my desired Playlist, but during the playback, the track album covers forget the last played track and franticly search for it. The album covers can rotate for ever and eventually lock the phone up and steel the album cover images at random. I have to then re-sync with iTunes to get them back. My last 3G phone did the same thing and I had it replaced, but still the same with the new 3G. Now I have a new 3GS, so the problem must be in iTunes Folder. I have a lot of tracks & platlists so I don't want to rush to reformat iTunes. Any ideas please? Jeff

  • Help please with caurina

    Hi, I have a bunch of logos in a file and want to animate with caurina, so I had create a timer to show ( fade in - fade out) the logos one by one;
    I had previously fade all the logos with alpha =0; but don´t any idea about how to call it inside the caurina function. my logos all are called logo1, logo2,logo3 etc and I try it to create a variable to hold a number and them put the first part of the name(logo) + the variable to call the movieclip but it didn´t work.Please if someone could help me with this problem.
    //this variable hold the 2nd part of the name
    var logoContador:Number = 1;
    var miTimer:Timer = new Timer(3000);
    miTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, goTimer);
    function goTimer(TimerEvent:Event):void
    Tweener.addTween(logo+logoContador,{alpha:1,time:1,transition:"easeInQuad",});
    Tweener.addTween(logo+logoContador,{alpha:0,time:1, delay:1.7,transition:"easeInQuad",});
    logoContador++
    miTimer.start();

    yes, you where right it was the extra coma before the end, works very soft and cool, and even using a conditional inside can use it as a  loop.
    Thanks so much for your help, here is the whole script, could be useful to other people.
    import caurina.transitions.*;
    //this variable hold the 2nd part of the name
    var logoContador:Number = 1;
    var miTimer:Timer = new Timer(3000);
    miTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, goTimer);
    function goTimer(TimerEvent:Event):void
    Tweener.addTween(this["logo"+String(logoContador)],{alpha:1,time:1,transition:"easeInQuad" });
    Tweener.addTween(this["logo"+String(logoContador)],{alpha:0,time:1, delay:1.7,transition:"easeInQuad"});
    if(logoContador>=6)
        logoContador = 1;
    else
    logoContador++
    trace("im runing");
    trace(logoContador);

  • Help please with my navigation buttons

    Can anyone please help me with my vertical navigation buttons. I'm trying to set up my nav bar so that all the buttons have a background image (button.jpg) behind them at all times and the only thing that changes when touched or the mouse rolls over them is that the colour of the text changes, except when the sub buttons appear, because the name of some of the sub buttons are so long i have created another button image that is longer (button2.jpg), i only want this to appear on sub buttons otherwise the buttons will end up taking most of the pages space. I'm having great difficulties getting the sub buttons to appear with the correct image (button2.jpg) and am getting increasingly frustrated with it, can anyone please help!!!
    www.milesfunerals.com/index2.html

    index2.html is a broken link for sure. The main index page looks like it's working fine.
    A little styling critique if it's okay... Personally I'd have gone with a CSS or Javascript multi-level menu across the bottom of the header. Saves visitors from having to scroll all the way down the page to see every menu item. And I'd rethink the color of the "Miles & Daughters" in the header image. It kinda gets lost in the roses.
    If you have a link to the "broken" page please put it up so we can analyze it.
