My old computer has broken and I had not backed up my Itunes. I now have the hard drive from my old computer but cannot transfer the music. How can I transfer the music from my old hard drive to the new laptop?

Copy the entire iTunes folder from \Users\<User>\Music on the old drive into your music folder on the new computer.
Or see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

How can i update the itunes in my external hard drive?

When i try to update the itunes on my external hard drive, it creates a new application in my computers hard drive. How can i update the one on my external hard drive?

there's no advantage to having the application on your external drive, you should leave it in your applications folder on your internal drive. if you insist on changing the app's location, you'll always have to then copy the app by hand to the external drive

I have so many photos I only have 1G of memory left. How can I move the photos to my external hard drive that is connected to my iMac?

1GB? It's a miracle your Mac is running at all!
This is our resident iPhoto guru, Terence Devlin's, advice:
You can move your iPhoto Library to an external disk:
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

I am over capacity and think it's because I have Downton Abbey Season 1 saved in iTunes. How can I move the episodes to an external hard drive?

I am over capacity on my #GS iPhone and I have a very large amount of audio space that I think might be taken up by season one of Downton Abbey. I have tried to copy and save episodes to my external hard drive but I get a message saying I "don't have permission". How can I move the six episodes out iTunes ??

EXTREMELY poor idea! Leave the apps on the internal HD. You can move files and libraries from iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, Aperture, etc.. to an external HD but leave the apps them self on the internal HD.
Did you empty the Trash after moving all that data to the EHD??

How can I play the music on my external hard drive with my laptop?

Look before everyone points out that this has been asked lots of times before, I wanted to state that in this particular case it might be a little bit more complicated. You see I think I've been an idiot.
I backed up all my physical music onto my external hard drive, but only the physical music. So now I have my nice new laptop and haven't got a clue how to play the music off my external hard drive, since I don't have an itunes library on my external hard drive.
Anyway any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Am I being a plonker, but it doesn't seem as simple as that. If I try and import via itunes it seems to want me to select the individual music file not the folder which holds all the music.
Also if I simply import it, won't my mac copy the files from my external hard drive back on to my laptop? Which makes me think I change the location where all the music is stored in itunes...?
Thanks for the help!

How can I find the largest files on my hard drive (sorted in descending order of size)?

To make most efficient use of Time Machine backup, I would like to have the option to exclude certain larger files that I don't need to save in case of a disk crash (e.g. a Windows partition under Parallels Desktop, which is backed up at the office anyway) etc.
I can't figure out how I can scan my entire hard drive and obtain a list of all files in descending order of size, irrespective of within which subdirectories such files are hidden. Anyone having an idea on how this simple task can be accomplished?
Thanks,

While Finder is active, press Command-F (Find in the File menu).
In that window you can set search criteria. In the second sub-toolbar should be a couple of buttons representing pulldown menus; by default, the first usually shows "kind". Click that one.
In the menu that opens, if "Size" or "File Size" is not available, select "Other". Then in the new window select "Size" or "File Size" and okay the window. From then on that choice will be available in the first pulldown menu.
You can use that to search your drive.
Note - by clicking the "+" button at the far right of the strip containing the pulldown menus, you can add additional search criteria, thus restricting a search to exactly what you want.

How can I find the path of an external hard drive?

I am using Virtual Box to install linux to an external usb flash drive. It gives me a list of drives:/ dev/sda, /dev/sda2 (type: ext 4), /dev/sda5 (type: swap). Which one is my external flash drive. This is very import and so I don't write per my current operating system, so please be certain. How can I find out which one is my external flash drive? Thank you!

Open the Disk Utility in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, click on the partition, choose Info, and look at the disk identifier.

How can I change the settings of an external hard drive?

I have a 250-GB external hard drive connected to my Mac mini, whose files and folders I can´t delete as it shows up as a read-only disk. According to the Mac help, I can use the files on a disk by clicking on the "Get Info" label and selecting "Ignore ownership on this volume" at the bottom of the menu. However, when I try to do that, the "Ignore ownership on this volume" checkbox doesn´t even show up on the menu. Any suggestions or alternatives to get to delete those files I no longer need? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

If you want to erase the entire drive you can format it with Disk Utility (in Applications/Utilities).
Mario is right about NTFS. If you drive is formatted as such (which would mean it was used by Windows at some point) then the issue is related to permissions (actually NTFS-formatted drives don't have permissions, but Access Control Lists instead), it's just that Mac OS X can't write to these disks.

How can I utilize the free space in external hard drive?

Hey,
I have a 1T external usb harddrive and formated as NTFS. It has about 250GB free space and I am trying to see if I can utilize that space for timemachine backup?
Please advise.
/S

Use a Windows computer to copy all the files from that external and then format it either Fat32 or exFAT, I suggest FAT32 if you don't have any Files over 4GBs in size. Once that is done you can then Copy/Move those files back to the external and then connect it to your Mac. Mac OS X can read and write to FAT32 and exFAT formatted drives. So you can then use it to store other files on fro your Mac.
But you need a Dedicated, Indepentant, Separate external for Time Machine backups and that drive must be formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) with a Partition table of GUID.

How can I combine the data from 3 old hard drives onto 1 newer hard drive and not duplicate the data?

Is there an app that will help me do this?

Finder. Create three partitions, then drag & drop each old HD onto a separate one. Alternatively, create three folders on the new HD and drag & drop each volume onto a separate one.

How can I remove the lable "Warning:Applet window" of pop frame in a applet

How can I remove the lable "Warning:Applet window" of pop frame in a applet? Not only in MS IE's JVM,but also in java plug-in 1.40, the warning always display , What can I do?
===
thank you!

You cannot remove the label. It is there intentionally as a security measure, to warn the user that the window is from a running applet, so that (s)he knows it might be dangerous to enter sensitive information there (any applet from anywhere on Internet could have opened the window, who knows if it is malicious or not!).
Perhaps you can open a window without the warning when you sign your applet (with a security certificate).
