I cannot copy files from Macbook to Iomega hard drive

I wanted to use my Iomega hard drive on my macbook for the first time but I cannot copy any files.
Can anybody provide me with the steps I have to do to configure the Iomega (formerly used on a PC)
for the Macbook?
Thanks

If you want to use the drive exclusively on your Mac - and not a Mac and PC - open Disk Utility (Applications>Utilities folder), click on the drive to be erase, and format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a single GUID partition and give it a new name. It should only take a minute or so (depending on the size of the drive) to format.
Call back if you have any problems.

  • 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.

  • Can not copy files from computer to external hard drive

    Have tried to copy thru drag and drop and also by edit copy files to folder ... I even tried copy of the files and paste but get the same error message which is in a little box that says Error copying file or folder Cannot copy file: and a OK button.
    How can I get the folder to copy?

    Try this tool and check : http://longpathtool.com/ 
    Also, can you format the HDD and check?

  • Help copying files from iTunes to external hard drive

    I have a bunch of music files (about 15,000 of them) that I want to back up to an external hard drive. They are only files of a certain bit rate, so I can't just locate them in a particular folder and copy them; I need to sort them in iTunes and copy them from there. I tried to highlight all of them and just copy them, but I got the spinning wheel for a couple minutes and then the operation stopped. I then figured out that I could transfer about 1,000 at a time -- I got the tracks by bands starting with A, then B, then C, to transfer. But now I am stuck. When I try to transfer files now, when I highlight them in iTunes, the window showing the destination folder on the external hard drive disappears, and I can't transfer them. Before, it seemed like both windows were active, but now they are not. Anyone know the solution to this?

    The Windows drive is probably formatted NTFS which is not natively writable
    by the Mac. It should be formatted as FAT32 to be usable on both.

  • CPU Jul-09 Installation - Error Cannot copy file from 'libjox10.so' to

    Hi All, I received this error while I was installing the last CPU on a 10.2.0.4 Oracle Instance running on a HP-UX Itanium System:
    Patch 8568398:
    Copy Action: Desctination File "/u02/app/oracle/product/10.2/Db_1/lib/libjox10.so" is not writeable.

    I checked metalink' site with no similar results found.
    Could anybody help me?
    Should I run /usr/sbin/slibclean and remove the last patch (Patch 8568398) and then try again?

    My PC laptop died and I have two external NTFS formatted hard drives. I also have a desktop Mac.
    I searched and came across another post dated Sept 2005 in the Support Forum that asked this similar quesiton I post. Sorry if i appear to sound repetitive but I really need  confirmation to the answer for reason stated below.
    The answer given then was as follows, "Max OSX can only read files on an NTFS formatted external hard drive -- it cannot write files to such a drive [OK, that is clear to me]. If you copy a file from an NTFS formatted hard drive to the internal hard drive of your Mac, there are absolutely no restrictions on what you can do to that copy of the file."
    So, to me this means I can modify the JPEG file in my Mac using Photoshop, right? No reformatting of the NTFS drive is necessary? If so, please let me know ASAP as i have a deadline to return the brand new PC which I purchassed thinking that that was my solution.
    I pose this question to this forum because the original post is 8 years old and wonder if OS compatibility issues remain the same.

    If you want to modify the JPEGs you have on the NTFS external disk, you will have to copy the images to your Mac hard disk before editing them.
    If you want to edit files on a NTFS external disk, you have to install a third-party application as Paragon NTFS

  • 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.

  • How do I access my encrypted User Account files from my Back Up hard drive?  Time Machine  was used to create the back up disk; File Vault was used to encrypt the files.

    How do I access my encrypted User Account files from my Back Up hard drive?  Time Machine  was used to create the back up disk; File Vault was used to encrypt the files.

    Thanks.  I will try going through TM.  Since my Simpletech is on the way out, I'll be plugging in a new external hard drive (other than the back-up drive) and trying to restore the library to the new drive.  Any advice or warning if this is NOT the right thing to do?
    Meanwhile, that is a great tip to do an alternate back-up using a different means.  It's been tough to figure out how to "preserve access" to digital images and files for posterity, knowing the hardware will always fail/obsolesce sooner or later, and that "clouds" are only as good as their consistent and reliable accessibility.  Upping the odds with redundancy will help dull the edge of my "access anxiety", though logically, it can never relieve it.  Will look into
    Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • How do I move a file from Icloud to my hard drive?

    How do I move a file from Icloud to my hard drive?

    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.

    Yes, I believe so. Please check out the NetPortal app. I don't have an iPad, but I use it on my iPod Touch to access files on my Time Capsule. It is available from the iTunes App Store.

  • SHAREPOINT QUESTION: One way SYNC of files from SharePoint cloud to hard-drive

    SHAREPOINT QUESTION: One way SYNC of files from SharePoint cloud to hard-drive
    How does a person enable Sales reps to SYNC literature files from a cloud library down to their computer,.... but then not be able to have them accidentally delete the files by accident if they delete a file from their computer and then have it
    sync upwards again.
    Permission Level
    "Read" allows to download individual files but not SYNC down and there are too many files for them to go and download each file every-time.
    "View Only" is only visible on the browser and not useful when reps are in remote parts of the world.
    "Contribute" allows the sales reps to SYNC but if they delete a file from their computer, then it deletes it for all which is to much.
    There must surely be a way to allow a one way (cloud-to-hard-drive) SYNC to avoid folks from deleting files.
    Does anybody know how to d this or if not, how do I have Microsoft consider such a perceived weakness compare to dropbox

    You can achieve the functionality which you describe using the OneDrive (SkyDrive Pro) in Sharepoint 2013. You can setup read only folders to sync to achieve "one way" traffic. You will need Office 2013 locally to avail the full features of
    the coauthoring environment if you are looking into that as well.

    Some benefits of using OneDrive include the following:
    Users can take their documents offline with them and have them synchronize when they are online again.
    Users' documents can be synchronized across all client devices and servers where the files are stored and synchronized.
    Multiple users (online or offline) can work on documents at the same time, and the OneDrive for Business Windows Sync client will synchronize the changes between the users. If there are conflicts, users are prompted to resolve the conflicts.
    Users can share and collaborate on documents.
    Users can work from many locations, either online or offline, and work from many devices.

  • Cannot copy file (From external HD, DVD, server) - iTunes 6

    Yesterday I've updated iTune to 6 and de facto Quicktime to 7.0.3.
    Just after this upgrade, I remark that I cannot copy files, using the finder, from external hard disk, dvd drive and network drive. During the drag, I've got the circle indicating that I can't copy.
    I can copy files only from my main hard disk to this one or others.
    (Note: With terminal applications I can copy theses files).
    Anyone else have this problems... or a explanation/solution.
    Thanks

    I reinstall iTune 6 and now everything is ok
