    Hard Drive warning when upgrading to Mountain Lion. 2nd try and I was able to upgrade. Software update for IPhoto, had problems restarting. Do I need my hard drive checked

    Yes.
    Choose Apple menu > Restart. Hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys as your computer restarts.
    When you see a white screen with an Apple logo in the middle, you can release the keys.
    Click Disk Utility, and then click Continue.
    In the list at the left, select the item you want to repair. (Be sure to select an item that’s indented to the right in the list, not an item at the far left.)
    Click First Aid.
    If Disk Utility tells you the disk is about to fail, back it up and replace it. You can’t repair it.
    Click Repair Disk.
    If Disk Utility reports that the disk appears to be OK or has been repaired, you’re done.
    Otherwise, you may need to do one of the following steps.
    If Disk Utility can’t repair your disk or it reports “The underlying task reported failure,” try to repair the disk or partition again. If that doesn’t work, back up as much of your data as possible, reformat the disk, reinstall Mac OS X, and then restore your backed-up data.
    If you continue to have problems with your disk, it may be physically damaged and need to be replaced

  • I just got my MacBook Pro a month ago. However I am realizing I need more hard drive space due to aps and programs.  I use am external but am concerned about the space. Is there a way to upgrade my hard drive from apple and keep my warranty valid?

    That would depend on whether your model actually has a hard drive. If you have the new 2013 Retina model, then you have a fixed storage device built-in that cannot be modified after purchase.

  • Upgrading hard drive... need help on how to prepare current CS6 for reinstall on new hard drive

    I'm about to upgrade my hard drive to a larger one and will need to reinstall my CS6 Web/Design Suite... I've seen many people having issues with activation and licensing after they reformat their computers or buy a new one and try to install the programs on the new "system". How should I go about preparing my Adobe software on the current hard drive so I won't have any issues resintalling on the new hard drive? I will be installing CS6 Student/Teacher version on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit...
    Thanks for the help!

    Thanks!
    I wondered if that was all I needed, but when I built my new system and installed PS CS4 I kept getting errors. So, I went back to the old system and deactivated it and still got errors. Uninstalled it deactivated and still got errors on the new system. When I talked to Adobe they just kept telling me the key was invalid (even though I had been running that same program and key for the last 4 years without problems lol) and it was not a burnt copy or pirated. I had the orginal box with the original DVD case and serial number on the case... A friend of mine had upgraded their rig and went to a Suite so he gave me his CS4. But, needless to say (as it is said all over these forums apparently) Adobe was of no help at all so I had to buy a new version. I'm not looking to go through all of that BS again, haha.
    So as long as I deactivate the Suite (or do I need to deactivate each program separately?) I should be able to reformat (or upgrade hard drives) and reinstall CS6 as many times as I want? (I usually do a reformat like once a year to keep my computers clean and free of junk that may have been downloaded by other household members...)

  • Do I need external hard drive to back up my iMac before update to mountain lion? My is OS 10.6.8

    Do I need external hard drive to back up my iMac before update to mountain lion? My is OS 10.6.8.

    First, repair your hard drive and permissions:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Second, make a bootable backup to an external drive using the Restore option of Disk Utility:
    Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
      1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
      2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
      3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
      4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
           it to the Destination entry field.
      5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
          the Source entry field.
      6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
    Third, purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Be sure you meet the requirements for Mountain Lion:
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later

  • I have a 2008 Mac Book Pro partitioned running windows and are running out of drive space. Can I upgrade hard drive for more capacity?

    I have a 2008 Mac Book Pro partitioned running windows and are running out of drive space. Can I upgrade hard drive for more capacity? I purchased a faster drive initially, but has 200 GB capacity. I am running out of room and would like to upgrade for more space if possible.
    Can anyone suggest an alternative?

    You don't need to partition your drive to run Fusion, only if you want to run Bootcamp.
    If you have space on your Windows partition, I would suggest you backup your Windows partition, and then, delete the partition using Disk Utility.
    You can now restore your virtual machine to a single volume or repartition if you prefer.
    I would consider upgrading to a unibody MBP (used, refurbished will do) just to be able to access the HD. Opening the pre-unibody MBP is not something you would want to do.

  • HP Pavilion DV6t-3100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC - Upgrade hard drive to SSD and windows 8?

    I want to upgrade my hard drive (WDC WD6400BEVT-60A0RT0) to SSD for faster performance AND upgrade to Windows 8. How should I proceed? Which should come first?
    I am not very knowledgeable about these things, but I have changed hard drives before -- never an SSD though. Never had BIOS problems in these changes, so never bothered with it either. No experience about that. I am practically illiterate about that part.
    What should I be careful about? Any SSD drive would work? Would BIOS (F.29) and motherboard (144A 65.38) be relevant? How should I choose my new SSD?
    Do I absolutely need to clone C: drive? Could I not install windows 8 fresh/anew? What problems may I have with a new SSD? 
    In short -- what would be the best and least problematic way to do this?
    I will back up my audio, video and office files. All copy-paste stuff. I have no problem with installing all my programs from scratch.
    I couldn't find a specific thread that provides a comprehensive answer so I opened this thread. 
    Thanks.

    It should be pretty simple _ remove the battery and adapter _ install your SSD _ hold down the power button for 1 full minute.
     Eject the DVD tray with the manual eject hole using a bent out paper clip.
     Load you W8 disc _ close the tray and plug in the adapter.
     Boot up, it should just boot to the W8 disc, if it doesn't there will be a quick flash on the screen when to press the esc key, after that you choose f9 (with out checking) and tell the BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD ROM.
     (the W8 disc will format the drive automatically)
     Get the newest SSD you can find, don't buy old junk from eBay _ always buy from a reputable dealer.
     I have Samsung SSD in my dv8 and has no problems, my old dv7 has an Intel SSD and it's been good too _ no problems. Stay away from bargain deals with obscure brand names.
     There are no official drivers posted for your machine for W8, so you can/will have to use the generic ones, but some times the HP OEM W7 drivers will work.
     Start with you Chipset driver first _ I think it's Intel _ there are no specs listed as your's is a CTO model.
     Get the Chipset driver direct from Intel _ they may have updated their auto driver finder to scan in a W8 environment.
     Install the rest of the drivers in any order. You can also use Windows update to find the drivers as well, it's up to you.
     Be aware that some things may not work in W8, like you finger print reader.
     The SSD will behave exactly the same as a standard drive, the only difference is that it will run faster.

  • Upgrading hard drive, need help!

    I found a good deal on a hard drive at best buy, but I'm not sure it's right... I can't a model number on any of the mac specialty sites. Could someone check out my link and tell me if it will work and if it won't what I need to be looking for in the specs? Thanks. (the more opinions the merrier!)

    I have just upgraded my iBook with the same hard drive.
    The only issue, this happened when upgrading the hard drive on my iMac as well.
    I have the MacOS 10.3 restore dvds for both computers. When you boot up from the DVD. Format the hard drive on Disk Utility. The Drive formats but isn't able to have the OS saved to it via installer. Leave your DVD loaded quit installer turn computer off. Turn on computer you can now save the OS to your hard drive.
    Might be different with MacOs 10.4 restore DVDs

  • Upgrading hard drive - do I need to reinstall everything?

    Hi -
    As the title suggests, I'm thinking of upgrading my 40gig hard drive to something bigger and was wondering how to shift all my stuff off and back on again? I have a 250gig external firewire which I can use but had heard of "mirror imaging" the whole hard drive. Does this mean I won't have to reinstall my OS and software (InDesign, Photoshop etc) from the original disks and then upgrade via the web etc?
    Thanks

    If there is sufficient space on the external hard drive, you can make a "disk image" of your internal drive on it using Disk Utility. The disk image is stored in a single file, which can be mounted on your desktop like a hard drive. The disk image serves as a backup and duplicate of the original disk.
    Once you install the new drive, you can run Disk Utility and restore from that disk image. When complete, your new drive will have exactly the same content as your old drive. You will not need to reinstall anything.
    Does your external drive have a Tiger installed on it? In other words, is it bootable?

  • Need Advice: Hard drive upgrade!

    In todays world, files and programs are starting to require more and more space. I went the cheap route and bought a 13" MacBook, 1.83Gz base-line model, with a combo-drive (oh, how I wish I got the DVD-burner) and a 60Gb hard drive. But with all my stuff, 60 just isn't enough, so I was thinking of upgrading my hard drive to a some-what larger model. Now, since MacBooks follow a common laptop (notebook :P) standard for hard drives, and have a readily accesible hard drive bay, installation of the actual hard drive should be easy! But once the hard drive is installed, how do I move the entire contents of my old hard drive to my new one? That includes: my home folder, Mac OS X, programs, etc. And I would not like to instead get an external one, because it would be much easier (and convenient) to have all my stuff on one, main hard drive, not to mention Mac can't have the home folder on an external drive, and programs may not run, or even install, as intended when located on an external hard drive.

  • Upgrading Hard Drive need help with making it work.

    I have just begun copying my HD to a 120GB 2.5" SATA drive.
    I'm using Super Duper to copy it, and I understand it will be a bootable disk.
    Once it has completed copying, is there anything I need to do to make it the startup disk ?
    Do I make it the startup disk before I swap the hard drive out from within System Preferences ?
    Also, it is currently called Disk 2 - Will that become the name of my HD (currently obviously called Macintosh HD)
    If it is, can I then change the name ?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    SuperDuper will make it a bootable disk if that's the backup option you selected. Look at the SD feedback information. It tells you what it will do and will then show the steps checking off each one as they are completed.
    All you will need to do is remove the old drive and install the new one. It should be ready to go if you did everything correctly. This includes partitioning the new drive using the GUID partition scheme, setting the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled), and then Erasing the drive using the Zero Data option.
    Be sure to test the cloned drive before installing by booting the computer with it while it's in the external case.
    You can rename the drive anything you want.

  • Upgrading Hard drive & RAM

    Hi, 
    I own a HP dv7-3085dx (product no : VM188UA#ABA) and I need to upgrade my hard drive to a SSD & upgrade my RAM. currenlty I'm having 500GB hdd & 6144MB DDR3 ram. 
    1. Please let me know whether Serial ATA III SSD (Samsung - 840 EVO 250GB Internal Serial ATA III Solid State Drive) is compatible with my mother board. And is it possible to use this SSD(primary) together with my old HDD(secondary). 
    2. Do i need to buy any extra cables for this upgrade?
    3. What is the transfer rate of my RAM? so i could buy a compatible RAM.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Your specific motherboard has the Intel 5 series chipset which only is capable of SATA-II. However, the SATA-III Samsung 840 Evo will work just fine and you will still see amazing speeds. You have picked a good SSD (the same one I am using so I am a bit prejudiced). 
    As for the memory, here is the crucial.com page on your model showing it will take up to 8 gb (2 x 4 gb) of DDR3-1333 SO-DIMM.
    http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=Pavilion%20dv7-3085dx
    And yes, you can use 2 hard drives in any dv7. You will need a second drive caddy and cable available here:
