  • Help, I installed parallel and windows, and opened videos (on an external hard disk) with windows, and now cannot open them with Mac, and use i movies.  How do I reverse this?

    Paragraphs help the reader, just saying.
    What are you actually trying to do? Why do you need "DVD size" folders if you're creatng an Archive on an external hard drive?
    Also, I understand burning folders instead of individual photos or albums gives you more space on a DVD.
    It makes no difference at all.
    How can I keep the captions on my photos (not events) when I print or transfer to a new folder?
    You can export while writing the metadata to the file in most cases.
    Tne only way I know is to copy photos from the Windows to folders on my HD, then copy and paste photos or albums or events to HD, then create a new folder and fill it to the appropriate DVD size. 
    HD? Another HD? You use HD there in a way that makes no sense. What's the point of 'DVD size'?
    I also thought I should download future photos to my Canon programming that comes with EOS cameras and edit and then decide which photos to save to iPhoto library and which to save only to my archival HD?
    Does this have any relation to the previous questions? You know you can delete from iPhoto, right?
    You're somewhat confused and you need to
    1. Decide what exactly you want to do
    2. Then go about it.
    If I understand you correctly - and there's no guarantee that I do -  the easiest thing is to bring all your Photos into iPhoto and do everything from there.
    You can have an archive on an external disk, you can sort and select and edit with or via iPhoto

  • How to save iPhoto folders to external disk?

    How to save iPhoto folders to external disk?

    You are not clear
    In iPhoto folders go not hold photos - they are organizanially ielements and hold other folder or albums
    are you talking aobt events by any chance? What do you want to do?
    To move the photos form events to an external drive select them and export - see the user tip on exporting for details on the options available
    to run iPhoto with your library on an EHD
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard.  Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

    I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard.  Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

    Hi there,
    I found that Time Machine in Mavericks will sort it all out for you. You shouldn't need to buy another backup drive, unless you have insufficient space left and can't afford to delete whats on there. It should just work fine.

  • How to set up an clasic TS-desktop with Windows 2012 (R2)?

    Hi,
    How to set up an clasic TS-desktop with Windows 2012 (R2)?
    Witch Roles and Features do I need, RD Session Host, RD Connection Broker, RD Licensing?
    /SaiTech

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Based on your description provided, I can understand that you want to setup RDS server 2012 R2 and want information how to achieve that. If misunderstood then please correct.
    If yes, then there is different option related to setup. There are 2 option for configuring. 
    1. Role based or Feature based installation
    2. Remote Desktop services installation
    For normal RDS environment, you can use 2nd option and then perform Quick start Deployment where 3 roles can be installed RD Connection Broker, RD Session Host and RD Web access. After this you can also publish RemoteApp and can use. 
    You can refer following article for more information.
    a) Remote Desktop Services (RDS) Quick Start Deployment for RemoteApp, Windows
    Server 2012 Style
    b) Step by Step Windows 2012 R2 Remote Desktop Services – Part 1 
    Hope it helps!

  • How do you download itunes onto a hp with windows 8?

    How do you download itunes onto a hp with windows 8?

    iTunes does not yet offically and fully support Windows 8. If you search this forum for "windows 8", you'll find threads with discussions as to how people have done it, though in almost all cases with less than perfect results.

  • How do I encrypt an existing external disk?

    I have two G-Raid Thunderbolt RAID disks.  Each is set up as a RAID 1 stripe (2 disks into one volume).
    I have my system disk encrypted with filevault, and would like to enable full disk encryption for the external disks as well.
    I tried the "Right click on disk in finder, select encrypt" option, but after I enter my choice of PW, I just get the error:
    "A partition, not a whole disk, is required for this operation."
    Is this possible?  Preferably, without formatting my disks all over again and enabling the encrypted FS at that time?

    Grr, I think I just found my answer:
    "FileVault disk encryption cannot be used with some highly partitioned disk configurations, such as RAID disk sets."
    That's too bad.

  • How to move Imovie 11 to external disk

    I am running out of space on my internal disk.  Need help for step by step instructions to migrate Imovie permanently from internal disk to external disk.  Thanks.

    You will need an external drive that is formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). If your drive is not formatted this way, you can reformat it using Disk Utility.
    In iMovie, click VIEW/EVENTS BY DISK. This should let you see your external drive in the Project List and in the Event List.
    Select any Project, and hold the Command Key down as you drag and drop the small icon for the project to the small icon for the external drive in the Project Library List.
    Now, select the Project on the external drive, and click FILE/CONSOLIDATE MEDIA. This will enable you to move any Events referenced in the Project, and also move copies of any photos or music you have used.
    Repeat for all projects.
    If there are any Events that have not been used in Projects, you can move them now by holding down the Command Key while dragging and dropping the small icon for the Event to the small icon for the external drive in the Event Library List. Repeat for all remaining events.
    You should now have all your projects and events on the external drive.
    Now you can edit your movies from the external drive.

  • How can I interchange a Toshiba external drive with my Mac and Windows? It only works read only with the Mac.

    I bought a Toshiba external drive IT and I can copy files to it from my Macbook Pro 5,3. I would like to know how canI interchange files with Windows and the Mac.

    If the disk is read only, it is formatted for Windows and the Mac can't write to it
    Reformat to FAT32
    This will of course wipe all data so move it first

  • Want to use a Lacie External Hard Disk with Windows and Mac? Can I?...

    Hi, I've just purchased a Lacie Extreme D2 external hard disk, I'm looking to use it to move film clips from my Mac G5 to my Sony Vaio laptop. I'll connect the Mac using Firewire 1 and the PC using USB 1.
    I understand there is an issue with setting the compaitibility of the hard disk to either Mac or Windows format but I'm wondering if I can set it to both, so it's possible to transfer these files? The hard disk is Windows and Mac compatible but does it have to be partitioned a certain way?
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Alex

    Format the drive as FAT or use the Mac format (HFS Extended) and install MacDrive on the PC.

  • How to connect a printer to Airport in WIFI with Windows

    Hi,
    I just would like to know how to connect my printer (Samsung) to my Airport network through WIFI (My computer is working with Windows).
    Thanks

    Well the easiest would be to plug your printer directly into your extreme using either the USB or Ethernet connection.
    Make sure you then install bonjour and use the printer wizard to convert your printer...
