Install on external or internal?

Was I supposed to install on internal or external harddrive? I already selected external did I screw anything up by doing this... Wasn't sure which to select... If I did is it possible to start over? By restoring external with my back up drive?

Thank you again just wanted to be certain before I do a back up to my second external... All this cause I'd like to eventually get an iPhone 4 and a new apple magic mouse. Both require snow leopard. Wanted to get the new mac mini but a little tight on money.

  • I have Lion on an external hard-drive and I want to install it on the internal disk

    I have Lion on an external hard-drive and I want to install it on the internal disk. How can I proceed?

    I recently completed a clean install of Lion on an internal SSD. After wiping it clean, I used a thumb drive with SL on it to boot and then another thumb drive with Lion on it. It worked just fine. The only thing to be aware of is that if you use the thumb to install Lion from... it will not install a recovery partition and you'll have to use the thumb in the future.
    That's what I wanted anyway so it's working out just fine. Good luck.
    I should add... I used the SL thumb to actually boot from and used Disk Utlities to wipe the internal SSD. It does work and there are Apple posts that can guide you through the thumb drive process. I used copycat to create both the SL boot and Lion.

  • HT3986 can bootcamp be used with Windows install disk on an external drive (internal is broken) ?

    can bootcamp be used with Windows install disk on an external drive (internal is broken) ?

    With Boot Camp, you must install Windows onto in internal HDD (or SSD).  If you are referring that your internal Optical drive is broken, you might be able to install Windows from an external drive, but you might not.  I have heard varying levels of success with that.  I'm not sure what the official stance is, but I do know that if youe machine shipped with an internal optical drive, then you must use that to install Windows using Boot Camp and not swap it out for a "data doubler" and try to install from an external optical drive.

  • How do i install an external hard drive to my powerbook G4?

    how do i install an external hard drive to my powerbook G4?

    Buy an external FireWire drive (and FireWire cable if you don't have a spare or the drive doesn't come with one). Then, just plug it in. Not much for installing.
    If you mean replacing your internal drive, that's another matter entirely.

    I have this message displayed "low disk space hp_tools" after installing HP external drive with simple save.  A new drive was created on my internal hard drive and apparently the allotted space is not enough.  How do I get rid of the partition and the error message?

  • Installed Samsung F3 1TB internal Hard drive configuration partition

    Hi,
    Have just installed a Samsung 1tb internal hard drive and now it comes to formatting and partitioning it not sure what amount of gb and how many partitions to do. I have all my itunes music and films stored on an external 1tb hard drive for information, and also have an external 320 gb drive for back ups. So any ideas what to do with the partitions and gb on the internal drive.

    There will be a lot of views on how the drive should be partitioned, so I will offer my opinion, and state it is only one opinion.
    Take a look at the amount of space you have been using for your operating system, are you planning on upgrading the OS, and then set a partition for only the OS. Make it large enough to allow for future upgrades, maybe 30-40 GB larger than needed so there is enough space for doing installs.
    Keep a partition large enough for all of your software, maybe have that be most of the remainder of the drive after the OS partition.
    Since you keep music, etc., on an external drive it should be easy to keep the internal drive in good shape and unfragmented.
    You could set a partition for temporary files, the /tmp file system, but it is easy to fill that up with a lot of web surfing and get yourself in trouble on space.
    Anyway, my view is a good size partition to allow for OS and future OS installs, and the rest for software.

  • External and internal mikes are not automatically switching over either recording or on voice calls

    My laptop model name is HP Pavilion dv4-1100ea which is shipped with Vista Home premium 32 bits and has got service pack 1.
    Restored the laptop to factory setting since then I am having the following problems; I had the same problem when my laptop was brand new and whenever I reset the laptop to factory setting I get the following problems:
    1. External and internal mikes are not automatically switching over either in middle of the recording using sound recorder or while the call in progress on voice calls (skype):
       Using the sound recorder if I start recording the sound with external  mike  and in-between  recording if I  switchover from external mike to inbuilt mike and later on when I play back I can only hear the sound  up till where I used the external mike during recording, after the switchover to inbuilt mike I cant hear any sound.
       But if I start the recording with inbuilt mike and in between recording  if I plug in  the external mike and later on when I play back I can only hear the sound up till where I used the inbuilt mike during recording , after the switchover to external mike I cant hear any sound.
       So in brief both my external and internal mikes are working fine, only problem is that if I start recording (using sound recorder) or voice call with one specific mike, I have to continue with it till the end. I can’t switchover to another mike in between the conversation (voice call) or recording, if I do so, I have to select the mike manually in chat software but while recording I cant even select manually because in laptop, it takes the mike whichever is in current use as default mike in recording tab(sound window). The green tick automatically (in recording device tab) switches over according to the use of mike. Though the green tick in the recording tab is switching over automatically according to use of mikes, its not picking up the sound after switch over during recording.
    2. And also when I click on recording device tab in sound window and plug in external mike, though the green tick automatically switchovers from internal to external mike, while I speak both internal and external mikes volume meter respond to the sound inputs by rising and falling but if I take out external mike, green tick goes to internal mike and when I speak only internal mike volume meter respond to sound rising up and down not the external mike.
    To resolve the issue I have tried following steps with no luck:
    1.I have checked the mikes(internal and external) properties, the both mike shows to be enabled in general tab, in level tab the volume is set to 100 and in advanced tab , all options are selected.
    2. In device manager I have got only one audio driver named as “IDT High definition Audio CODEC”. I have uninstalled the audio driver and reinstalled it using scan for hardware option
    3. Uninstalled the audio driver in device manager and reinstalled the audio driver using recovery manager > advanced option> hardware driver re-installation.
    3. I have updated the BIOS(Insyde F.65, 12/02/2010).
    4. I tried to update the audio driver using below link but things went more worse so I did system restore (not factory setting though).

    Sounds like you need to upgrade to the iPhone 5s
    The 5s has Touch ID
    You can unlock your phone with your finger instead of typing in a key code
    No swiping to unlock either, just touch the home button
    You can enrol multiple fingers as well
    Here is a video of it in action
    http://www.apple.com/iphone-5s/videos/#video-touch
    Or wait and see what iPhone 6 has to offer
    That being said, as desiel vdub posted if the phone is up to your face, the proximity sensor should turn the screen off
    And when you lower the phone turn it back on again
    Not sure about the phone locking when your on a call doesn't sound right

  • What's the easiest way to add storage to a mac mini. (1TB hard drive but only 32G of real storage). External device, internal or partitioning?

    What's the easiest way to add storage to a mac mini. (1TB hard drive but only 32G of real storage). External device, internal or is there some way to partition? I tried doing so but received a message that there wasn't enough free space to partition. Seems like a 1TB drive should have more storage than my Ipad

    Its worth confirming what free space you have on your drive: 
    go to:   Apple Menu > About this Mac >  More Info > Storage
    The bar chart shows how much free space there is on the drive:
    Please realise that partitioning does not create extra space so this wont help you.
    If your free space is less than 20 % you should get extra storage with an external USB or Firewire drive, any make or model will work.

  • How do I install Bootcamp on 2nd internal iMac drive?

    Have a new iMac with a 1TB internal HD in addition to the SSD startup drive.
    Can I, and if so how do I, install Bootcamp on the 1TB internal HD? Will the Bootcamp Assistant point out the 2nd internal drive and proper location during the install process?
    I purchased this iMac w/wireless keyboard, mouse, and trackpad...is that going to be a problem during the Windows install?
    Thanks,
    David

    Bootcamp actually gave me an option to install on the 2nd internal iMac drive and it's working like a champ!
    Thinking I was relegated to a Bootcamp partition on my SSD startup drive, I went ahead and delved into the Bootcamp install, only to find an option to install on either my SSD startup drive or my 2nd internal iMac drive. I simply chose the 2nd drive and lo, and behold, as I hold the Option button down on startup, both of my operating systems (OS X and Windows) available for selection.
    Thanks for all the help, but it looks as though the latest edition of Bootcamp has addressed this issue, I am quite pleased.

  • [solved] Boot installer from hard disk, but install from external DVD.

    Hi!
    I have an old notebook with broken cd-rom and without support to boot from USB disks (only "USB-FDD"). I want to install on this notebook Arch Linux! I bought an external DVD writer and I would like to only boot Arch linux, but install from external drive. How can I do it?

    Yes. My laptop does not support booting from usb-cd and usb-hdd
    But I installed Arch by grub4dos to boot from iso, connect external dvd and start installation. System successfully detected the dvd drive so I could install a new system!

  • Software update for A2109A - how to install from external sd?

    I bought my wife and son an A2109A tablet each just a few days ago. I immediately did an ota update. When I checked if there any further updates it said the tablet had the latest software from 297 days ago.
    I see everyone on forums talking about a jellybean release for this tablet so I had a look on Lenovo's site and sure enough, there is an update released on 20th Feb 2013 with the filename a2109_jb_gpl_rc1_227.tar.bz2. I downloaded this, put it on an ecternal sd card and booted into recovery mode. The tablet did a search for an update, found it but couldn't verify the update. I chose the "install from external storage" option, but it couldn't see the file. I renamed the file to "update.zip" and tried again but it aborted again both automatically and manual install.
    What do I need to do to install this update?

    You tried to install the kernel source on your tablet? You can't do that, What OS are you running? if you don't have jb, the system update should allow you to update.

    Ignore the MacKeeper ad no matter what else you decide.
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
    Just sits there occupying very little space & never interfering, unless you need to invoke it in Single User Mode.
