    Hi, can I use the above drive for time machine? thanks, marek

    Hi JordyT,
    I have not heard of this error before and I am not exactly sure what the cause would be. What file system is the external drive formatted to and what operating system are you using? Have you tried running Disk Utility on the hard drive? Is it possible to try on another computer perhaps?

  • Back up - trying to install Iomega eGo portable hard drive

    I am trying to upgrade from Panther to Leopard. I bought an Iomega eGo portable hard drive to back up my files before I do the upgrade. I followed the instructions to reformat the Mac drive but when I am in the Disk Utility - Erase - the "Volume Format" does not highlight so I can't do anything. Any suggestions? Iomega support is closed on Sundays and I really wanted to get this done today! Thanks for your help.

    what files do I backup?
    Most users backup their entire hard drive contents - system, applications & files. As a minimum, backup your important files.
    Can I just drag and drop the Mac HD to the Iomega backup hard drive? and the applications and my personal file?
    You can't drag the Mac HD to the backup hard drive to copy everything. Generally, you can drag files & most applications, however, there are many invisible files associated with the System that would not get copied. You need to use one of the cloning apps below.
    Depending on how many GBs of data needs to get copied to the external hard drive, it will take multiple hours to copy everything. I do mine over night. Be sure to turn of the Energy Saver. Depending on which cloning app you use, after the first clone you can then just update the things that have changed. Most of us use SuperDuper (shareware) or CarbonCopyCloner (donationware).
    Whenever you upgrade your OS, like going from Panther 10.3 to Tiger 10.4, you will not lose anyhing if you use the Archive & Install feature & select preserve user settings.

  • Bluescreen when connecting usb iomega ego portable hard drive to T61 with XP pro SP#

    Hi, connecting a new iomega ego portable hard drive to T61 XP pro causes it to bluescreen.  Get the message "...windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer".  The drive works on other PCs.  Does anyone have an idea what causes this and what a remedy could be.  Thanks in advance for your help.  Deb

    Hello,
    How does the Iomega eGo portable hard disk drive connect to the ThinkPad T61?
    If you plug this portable hard disk drive in before you turn the ThinkPad on, does the problem still occur or does Microsoft Windows XP boot as normal?
    Regards,

    Can anyone help me figure out how to use my new LaCie external hard drive to import movies from my camcorder into imovie '09? I ran into so many problems last night!! Was up way past my bedtime!

    I'll stay in this chat ... I answered in the other one ... I have a Sony digital Handycam ... from years ago.  I just got the LaCie and I think I formatted it for only to be used on my Mac ... how should I go about reformatting it to be HFS Extended like you said?

  • External hard drive connected to my airport extreme will no longer open, when navigating to it in Finder, the Finder window quits and reopens, cannot access hard drive, it is visible in airport utility, since the problem began I have updated firmware

    External hard drive connected to my airport extreme will no longer open, when navigating to it in Finder, the Finder window quits and reopens, cannot access hard drive, it is visible in airport utility, since the problem began I have updated firmware on Extreme as well as both of my Airport Expresses. Hard drive is USB connected to Extreme.

    Reboot the USB drive.. assuming it is powered.. or unplug and replug a self-powered drive.. (you should not use self-powered drives on AE before the latest model.. always use a powered hub).
    Does the drive now appear in finder..
    If not reboot both drive and the AE.. it should now appear.
    If it doesn't work with direct connection try a powered hub.. that can help.

  • HT2090 how to transfer files from a portable hard drive to another

    I tried to transfer some files from one portable hard drive to another but I cant seem to transfer anything.but hard drives are under the NTFS thingy.The brand of the hard drive is WD.pliz help...

    Your HDDs are formatted for windows.  There is software available that will allow you to use them with your MBP.  It has received mixed reviews and you will have to use Google to find it.  Perhaps someone else will give you specific information on same.
    The other option is to reformat the HDDs to be compatible with your MBP using Disk Utility, but that will erase the user data.

  • How to put apps on a portable hard drive

    I want to sync apps to my computer.  I want them off my phone for now.  I want to put them back on later.  If I manually uncheck the apps I want off the phone then sync, where do those apps go?  Can I get them back later? 
    I need them to go on a portable hard drive so I can pick them up from another computer if necessary.  I put all my music on a portable hard drive and take it around from computer to computer and it works great.  I want to do the same with apps.
    Thanks

    So if I choose one computer to put the apps on, then I can take them on and off my phone from that computer only.  Is that correct? 
    Let's say I sync to the computer leaving off a couple of larger apps but I want to put them back on the phone later.  Will I be able to do that or does the sync cause the apps to go away entirely and I'd have to buy them again if I wanted them?

  • How to use JFileChooser to select only hard drive?

    I am doing CD update. I am using a component called "JFileChooser". I use this component to let user choose a Hard Drive or Floopy. When I try this component, and if I choose a hard drive and a folder/file, it works. If I only choose hard drive, it will return "My Documents"??? I cann't get hard drive. How to set up JFileChooser so user only choose hard drive and it will return this hard drive. Thanks for help.
    Gary

    Easiest (and maybe most portable) way is to have a specific file in your root directory of the CDROM. You could use java.io.File.listRoots() to get all drives and then pick the one that has your file.
    This will enable the user to copy the CDROM to a hard drive (easier for testing also) or mount a remote CDROM.

  • How to use the  ipod as external hard drive???

    I went to the windows explorer page and checked under my computer and saw my ipod as the "E" drive. Is the procedure of storing files, be it word or excel or photos as simple as dragging them into the ipod E drive location???
    I have tried doing this and they seem to have been copied into the ipod, however when I checked into the ipod they were not there...anywhere. I highlighted the "ipod(E)" drive and created a new folder named "my documents" and then dragged some word files into it. I then detached the ipod from my computer and checked the ipod for the files and the new folder "my documents" and could not find them.
    When you use the ipod as an external hard drive are all the documents and files you drag into it hidden???
    Is there any way to view word documents?? How do you store them?
    When using the ipod, is the only viewable information that comes up onto the ipod screen, info from the "itunes" page??
    cheers

    You can't view any of the files on the iPod while using the iPod. You can only see them through the computer. I guess if you want, you can put the files into the "Notes" folder on the iPod and see them using your iPod, but you can only open .txt files up to 4kb big.

  • Can I use files from a portable hard drive

    I have a project I need to edit
    All the files are HD and supplied on a portable USB3 hard drive.
    I can import them into final cut pro, but when I go and try to share the project or send it to compressor the options are all grey out?
    Do I need to save to files to my main hard drive or to a proper "powered" hard drive?
    I'm using most recent version of FCP on an iMac 27" running Yosemite...
    Thanks for your help in advance...

    Hello - okay the library files were on the external portable HD.
    After having no luck whatsoever with exporting the documents out, I tried moving just the files i needed to the main HD. But still I have no luck sharing anything, the menu items are still greyed out. The library is in the Movie folders in the user's folder
    Attatched is a screen shot as requested
    I hope this helps with an answer...
    Thank you...

  • How to use TimeCapsule as an external hard drive and thats it

    I used have to internet wifi with my TC but now I recently moved and no longer wish to get internet. But can I use my TimeCapsule as an external hard drive only? If so, how do I do this? What kind of cable do I need? (I missplaced the cable that came with it, or do I need a special cable?) What are the steps to start saving the data on my macbook to the TC? Oh i have the newer model alumin macbook 13"

    You can still have wi-fi without internet, if you want.
    You could connect to the time capsule via wireless or via ethernet cable so that you can access the hard drive. This would also allow you to back up to the Time Capsule.
    To begin back ups have your Time Casule turned on and either connected via ethernet to your computer or have it using the wi-fi.
    Go in to Settings and choose Time Machine. Turn it on and follow the instructions, selecting the Time Capsule as the back up location.

  • How to use recovery dvd on new hard drive, install window 7

    hello, i have trouble with my laptop. my hard drive got bad sectors and now i need to replace my hdd to new one. im not sure how to reinstall window 7 on my new hdd.
    is it possible to install operating system on new hard drive using recovery disk? and how?

    Hi,
    Yes, recovery discs will work on a new hard drive, but it's generally best to ensure that the replacement drive is of the same capacity ( slightly larger is Ok ) as the original - recovery discs can have issue when used on a drive that has a smaller capacity than the original.
    When you have replaced the HDD, all you need to do is as follows.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. 
    Insert the 1st Recovery Disc. 
    Select Boot options ( f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and hit enter.  You may also get a prompt to 'Press any key to continue' - do this if asked.
    You will be prompted to insert subsequent discs as required.

  • Help with Iomega 500g portable hard drive

    Hi
    I'm not sure I've posted this in the correct place, but...
    I recently reached the capacity on my hard drive. I deleted some stuff but instead of just reducing the content, it's reduced the capacity of the hard drive as well, so I am still unable to add more content (including the stuff that I removed in the first place).
    Any suggestions? I removed some files that are part of a final cut project - which I intended to put back on once I'd finished moving stuff about, but since I can't put it back on, all the media is now offline when I open the project.
    Thanks

    I'm not sure I've posted this in the correct place, but...
    Indeed, the confusing and inconsistent labeling of the forum areas have claimed another victim. If you are running 10.5.X then your iMac is newer than those in this forum.
    Do "About this Mac..." from the Apple menu. If it says you have a G5 processor, the forums for those is here:

    If is says yours is an Intel processor, the forum is here:

  • IOmega Prestige Desktop Hard Drive 1TB

    I just made the switch from PC to Mac a few weeks ago so I've been putting all my files onto my hard drive for transfer. I would like to keep my master files on my hard drive but my Mac won't let me copy files from my computer to the external. Is there anyway to make this possible without losing any data on my hard drive?

    Is there anyway to get it to work without installing any extra drivers or software?
    Not without risking damage. Click here for more information.
    Can I change security settings so that I can get it to work?
    No.
