I can only BU a complete HD? Not specific files/folders on all ex drives

I thought i was going to be able to choqse what i wanted to be backed up and when to be backed up?
TM looks limited to only selecting a hard drive?
Is that it?

I have the same question/complaint. I have a 3 Terabyte system (3 750Gig hard drives) and a 1 Terabyte external Lacie. When I try to use TM it says I don't have enough external space, to use the "Options" button to pare it down but nothing appears there. I don't want or need two of the internal 750 gig hard drives backed-up but I do want the main hard drive backed-up. There is no option to choose or select. TM is useless to me as is.

  • On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture.  How can I access the Aperture Library  on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup?  I can only access the application but not the library..

    On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture.  How can I access the Aperture Library  on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup?  I can only access the application but not the library..

    Go into Time Machine (the program not the bundle on the extrnal disk) and using Time Machine's browser go to the Folder where the library lives. You could look in the library bundle in Time Machine but that won't really tell you much,
    If you want to make sure it truely has backed up your library you will need to restore it and open the restored library with Aperture.
    If all this still has you confused you need to read up on Time Machine in order to get a feel for how it works, for what it is doing and for how to restore files from it.

  • I want to give my old iPhone 4 to my grandson to use like an iPod Touch. Wifi only. How do I deactivate my info..so he can buy his own apps. and not have the cloud pushing all of my data to the old phone?

    I want to give my old iPhone 4 to my grandson to use like an iPod Touch. Wifi only. How do I deactivate my info..so he can buy his own apps. and not have the cloud pushing all of my data to my old phone?
    Just turning off Cloud will not prevent him from turning it back on.
    Rignt now, if he uses the App store, iTunes thinks it's talking to me.

    First, turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account, while your sim is still in the phone. Then: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. Give it to your grandson & he gat then set it up as he wants.
    Important your turn iMessage & FaceTime off to disassociate the phone from your Apple ID. Apple "claims" to have fixed this with iOS 6.0, but until I can absolutely confirm such, I still recommend you turn all of that stuff off first.

  • I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email addr. We need to change to a real address. But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password. Note: we don't have Mac, only iPad and Windows.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • Hello, I have two questions on time capsule  I can only have it on my external hd files and free up my internal memory to my mac  I can use an external hard drive, in my case a lacie rugged as shared memory for my two computers

    Hello, I have two questions on time capsule  I can only have it on my external hd files and free up my internal memory to my mac  I can use an external hard drive, in my case a lacie rugged as shared memory for my two computers

    I have a mackbook pro and an iMac if I buy a time capsule 2tb airport, I can use it with time machine and what would be the best way to use it.
    There is no particular setup required for TM.. both computers will create their own backup sparsebundle which is like a virtual disk.. Pondini explains the whole thing if you read the reference I gave you.
    and how to use time capsule airport whit other external hd to use my old lacie airport with the new time capsule
    Up to you.. you can plug the external drive into the TC and enjoy really slow file transfers or you can plug it into your computer and use it as external drive.. which is faster than the TC.. and TM can include it in the backup.
    Again everything is explained in the reference.. you are not reading it.

  • I can only access the itunes library if i plug in my external hard drive.  is there a way to add the music to my internal hard drive?

    i can only access my itunes library if i plug in my external hard drive.  how do i find where the itunes songs are on my external hard drive and how do i move them to my computers internal hard drive so i no longer have to have the external hard drive plugged in?

    When the drive is connected, use the Organize Library command in iTunes. If the entire library is located there, drag it to the internal drive, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down, and point it there.

  • I am trying to burn some cds from my playlist on itunes, but my playlist shows many of my songs in light print and says that it will not burn because it is not a file, these are all songs I have purchased quite a while ago, how do i get them to files?

    I am trying to burn some cds from my playlist on itunes, but my playlist shows many of my songs in light print and says that it will not burn because it is not a file, these are all songs I have purchased quite a while ago, how do i get them to files?

    If they were songs you purchased from itunes, try redownloading them from your purchases...
    if that doednt work, make sure the optuon to copy files to itunes media folder is checked in settings, then find and download from the net. and re-add them to your library

  • Can I change the location of adobe organizer file folders in Elements 11 from my c to d drive ?

    Can I change the location of adobe organizer file folders in Elements 11 from my c to d drive ?
    My laptop, which uses Windows 7, came with the hard drive divided between a C and D drive.  the C drive, where all the programs load, is nearly full, and I would like all the photos and videos that adobe elements organizer finds and that I download into load on my nearly empmty and spacious D drive.
    In other programs I can change this is file prefernces, but I cant find that feature in elements.
    Is it possible? and how can I do it?

    Team Ben Hur
    SG will probably have more to say about his reply, but in the meanwhile you might want to check out Premiere Elements 11/Elements Organizer 11/File Menu/Catalog Manager... and the Custom Location option. I suspect that is what both of you have in mind?
    When Photoshop Elements 11 and Premiere Elements 11 are installed on the same computer, they share a common Elements Organizer (catalog) although they can be purchased as standalone products each with its own Elements Organizer (catalog).

  • Can one embed the complete font (not a subset of it) when saving as an EPS in Illustrator (CS4)?

    We are running into some display font issues when our clients use Acrobat 7 or older versions of reader to view our PDF proofs.  On occasion, subsetted fonts conflict and reveal question marks instead of the desired type in the final PDF.
    We use a proprietary composition system to perform the majority of our file composition, but use Illustrator for tables and charts.  Our composition system requires imported elements to be saved in the EPS file format.  As far as I can tell, there is no way to have Illustrator embed the complete font rather than a subset of it when saving the file as an EPS.  Please correct me if I am wrong?
    All help is greatly appreciated.

    Russel,
    I appreciate your advice.
    To answer your befuddlement, the PDF supplied to our client is generated from a PostScript file created from our proprietary composition system.  Unfortunately, the casue of the subset conflict is occuring prior to the PDF distillation.  We do not create the PDF in Illustrator.  Our proprietary composition system can only import the EPS file format for linked bitmap and vector images.  The moment the EPS is saved is where the issue is occuring.  A redistill further downstream (when the EPS and composition files are already combined in the PostScript) does not appear to eliminate the conflict.
    If there was a way for us to embed the entire font and not just a subset of it in the EPS that we export out of Illustrator, then the likelihood of a subset conflict occuring in the PDF during distilling would be eliminated.  Fortunately, the question marks only show up when the PDF is displayed on screen in Acrobat.  The output from this same PDF looks fine when sent to a printer.  Considering the size of our print runs (often in the millions) and the importance of all type displaying properly (risk of large SEC fines), the explanation that the job will print correctly even though it displays improperly does not satisfy our clients.
    We can not convert the text to outlines since the fonts would appear slightly heavier in the tables than they would appear in the portion that is composed in our proprietary composition system where the same font is used. 
    Any other ideas?

  • I previously owned an iPad. I want to restore my iBook collection from my iPad to my Macbook. I can only see my collections but not the books. How can I restore it from my iPad backup?

    I prevsiouly owned an Ipad. Before selling it, I backup it on my Macbook. When the new Mavericks has been released, i upgraded my Mac. Now that I have iBooks on my Mac, I want to restore my iBook collection from my previous Ipad to my Mac. On my Mac, I can only see the iBooks collection of my previous iPad but not the books that I have purchased. I probably had more than a hundred books on my collection (in epub and pdf formats). I have already tried transferring purchases in iTunes and adding to my Library but to no avail.
    Can anyone give me a solution to this.

    Restore as a NEW device to test. If this solves it, that means there is some corruption in your backup file, or maybe it's one of your apps causing the trouble. If the problem is still there, you should take it to the Genius Bar at an Apple Store for evaluation.
