How do I move premiere projects from macbook to external hard drive?

Computer is pretty full and I need to free up more space on my macbook.  By moving the large video files or projects to an external hard drive, I will free up the space on the computer.  How can I move these files?

From the appropriate application (eg, Pages, TextEdit, etc) find your file(s) in iCloud (use File - Open), then highlight (you can multiple-select) the files you want to move, and drag them to your desktop or another Finder location.

  • How can i move my Iphoto library to an external hard drive?

    How do I move my Iphoto library to an external hard drive?

    Here's a worflow for that:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    Now you have two full versions of the Library.
    3. On the Internal library, trash the Events you don't want there
    Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
    Some Notes:
    As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
    You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using  iPhoto Library Manager

  • I want to take files from my PC (using a Seagate external hard drive) then plug this Seagate External hard drive into my Mac Book Pro and move the files from the Seagate External Hard drive onto my Time Capsule. I do not want to put these files on my Mac

    I want to take files from my PC (using a Seagate external hard drive) then plug this Seagate External hard drive into my Mac Book Pro and move the files from the Seagate External Hard drive onto my Time Capsule. I do not want to put these files on my Mac. How do I do this? Where do I put these files on my Time Capsule? Will it affect the functioning of my Time Capsule?

    Mixing files with data is not always great idea.
    See info here.
    Q3 http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
    Why not just connect the PC directly to the TC by ethernet and copy the files over?
    It is hugely faster and much less mucking around.
    In windows load the airport utility for windows.. if you have not already as this will help you access the drive.
    There is more info here.

  • Want to move all songs from laptop to external hard drive...

    I was hoping someone could help me move all of my songs from my laptop to an external hard drive in the most efficient manner. My library is using up too much space on my laptop. Any other time I would just copy and paste the songs from one folder to the new folder on the ext HD and delete the files on the PC. If that is okay to do, then how do I redirect iTunes to always search and save to the ext. hd? Or is ther a migration tool that does all of this in iTunes??
    Thanks,
    Sean

    This has been covered here multiple times, but again:
    If you are running iTunes 6,, see:
    iTunes: Moving Your iTunes Music Folder
    IMPORTANT: do not delete the iTunes folder or the preference files it contains from your boot hard drive; delete ONLY the tracks themselves (i.e. the contents of the old iTunes Music folder).
    If you have iTunes 7, then you can use the procedure above, but a better way is usually to just drag the entire iTunes folder (the entire folder, not just the iTunes Music folder) to your desired location. Then hold down the Shift key (Windows)/Option key (Mac) while launching iTunes. You'll be given a dialog box where you can select the iTunes library you want to use. Navigate to and select the iTunes folder in it's new location. Note that this procedure assumes that all of your tracks are contained in the iTunes Music folder. If they're scattered around your volumes, moving them becomes much more complex.
    In either case, don't delete the tracks from the old location until you've confirmed that they're working correctly from the external drive.

  • How do I move my iTunes Music to an external hard drive? Please help!

    I bought an external hard drive and moved the iTunes Music folder from my local hard drive to the external hard drive and now the iTunes library appears empty. I moved all my music back into the local hard drive and the libarary is now full full of music again. How can I move all the files to the external drive and have iTunes retrieve the music from there?
    Thanks!
    Paula

    This article tells you the proper way to move your music:
    iTunes: Moving your iTunes Music folder
    After a successful move, always connect your external disk, before running iTunes.
    Failing to do so will iTunes cause to reset the 'iTunes Music folder location'.
    That means your next ripped CDs will be stored on your internal disk.
    If that happens, just set the proper location again in the preferences.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you move your iphoto library to an external hard drive--step by step because I dont even know the basics--Help!

    I have no more space on my hard drive and my computer keeps freezing.  I would like to move my 10,000 photos from IPHOTO to an external hard drive but dont know how to do it.  I am reading answers to similiar questions but dont know how to do even the simplest instructions like "after you quit Iphoto how do you copy the iphoto library from our pictures folder to the external disk????"  Ugghhh I have no idea how to do this.  Please help a busy mom of three who sits here for an hour and just spins her wheels!!!

    Make sure the external drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled), quit iPhoto, drag the iPhoto library to the external drive, depress the option key, launch iPhoto and use the select library command to select the iPhoto library on the external drive
    Fully test the library. Once you are sure it is totally ok delete the old library - test one more time prior to emptying the trash
    Check and make sure that your backup system is backing up yor external drive

  • Can't copy files from Macbook to External Hard Drive

    Hi:
    I have an external hard drive for backup, works fine at the office with mssoft -- but for some reason I am told by Macbook that I cannot modify the External hard drive when trying to copy files and folders to the drive from the Macbook.
    I'm thinking "read only" because I know how to change attribute in Windows - but this is my first MAC (and generally I love it).
    HELP -- how do I copy to the External Drive?
    ...Dan

    This drive is probably formatted as NTFS for use with the PC.
    Your options are:
    1) Install NTFS-3g on your Mac (available here: http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com/2010/06/ntfs-3g-for-mac-os-x-2010522.html)
    2) Reformat the external drive as FAT32 (you'll have to save the data elsewhere, then use either OS X's Disk Utility to reformat the drive, or use a Windows tool to do the same thing). FAT32 has a 4GB maximum file size limit.
    3) Reformat the drive as HFS+ on the Mac (saving the data elsewhere first) and install MacFuse on the PC. HFS+ does not have a maximum file size limit, but MacDrive is not free.

  • HT5182 How can I back up photos from iPhoto to external hard drive?

    I have a large number of photos that I need to move onto an external hard drive to free up my MBP's internal hard drive.  Most of my photos were imported in RAW format and editied in iPhoto.  I understand from other posts that iPhoto converts these photos to jpegs.  I'm quickly running out of room.

    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library 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.

  • How do I move my i-tunes to an external hard drive to free up space, how do I move my i-tunes to an external hard drive to free up space

    My Mac air is out of space, how do I put my i-tunes library onto an external hard drive to free up space?

    Probably the easiest way is to drag the files from the iTunes window to the external drive.  Make sure they have copied.  Delete them from iTunes.  Hold down the option key and drag the copied files back to iTunes.  This will add them back but mapped to their new location and the option/alt key will stop the files from being copied to your Media folder on the internal drive.
    In future if you are adding a batch of files in one go you can set preferences temporarily to store media on the external drive, then change back again.  See also:  iTunes 12 for Mac: Change where your iTunes files are stored - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19507
