Music skipping after moving to new hard drive

I installed a second hard drive on my pc but now all of my music skips. Why?

It's a windows setting you can get to from Windows Explorer.
Tools > Folder Options > File Types
Find AAC in the list, and tell it to use itunes.

    At startup hold down the Command+Option/Alt+r keys until you see a globe on the screen. Then use disk utility to partition and format the drive HSF+ and then select Reinstall Mac OS X. whatever version of OS X that originally came on your system will be installed and then you can upgrade back to Mavericks.

  • After installing a new hard drive can I install snow leopard directly from snow leopard disc

    After installing a new hard drive can I install snow leopard directly from snow leopard disc. Or do I have to install previous versions first. iMac 7.1 (2007) 2.8ghz

    You can install directly, assuming the disk is newer than your computer and not designed for a different Mac, but doing so won't install iLife.

  • I see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder

    i see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder. I see that it means that it isn't reading the new hard drive.
    did i miss a step between transferring all of my information from my old hard drive to the new hard drive and installing the new hard drive into the computer. I believe that i installed properly. it was quite easy.
    thanks for your help

    It means there is no bootable system on the drive. If you still have access to the old drive, then I suggest you boot from it then clone it to the new internal drive. Use OPTION boot to boot from the Recovery HD on the old drive:
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
         1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
             button.
         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.
    Source means the external old drive. Destination means the new internal drive.

  • Setting up time machine/time capsule after fitting a New Hard Drive.

    I have replaced my hard drive in my imac 24inch and restored the system from my time capsule. My question is now my time machine is trying to back up to my time capsule but it is already 3/4 full from the old drive in my imac. How do i best set up my time capsule with time machine after installing a new hard drive in the imac. I was hoping that i would restore the system and I would still be able to (after pointing time machine to my time capsule) access old files if needed in time machine. It has presently deleted a lot of older backups but still cannot fit it all in as it just sees a new hard drive worth of info and is attempting to back it all up on my time capsule.

    Me, I would never use Time Machine to do this. What I'd suggest you do is get an exterior enclosure for your new drive. Then use either Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper to clone your existing drive to your new drive. Once done, verify your clone is bootable & all of your data present. Then swap drives & use your old drive for Time Machine backups(after erasing it). Then get another drive & exterior enclosure to regularly clone your new drive to.
    Unless he was swapping for a lower capacity HDD or to a lower capacity SSD, then the old drive would make a lousy Time Machine disk.  However, whenever I swap out a disk I do exactly what you do.  CCC to get the ol drive onto a new one.  Test by starting up to the new (but still external drive).  Then replace the internal drive.
    I usually just sell the old drive on eBay.  My Time Machine backup is always 2X the size of the internal drive, which I believe is a bit above recommendations, but works for me.  The price of large external drives is almost the same as smaller internal ones.

  • I have recently restored everything on my iMac after getting a new hard drive. When i try to use Elements, i get the following error code   ERROR  150:30. Any ideas?

    I have recently restored everything on my iMac after getting a new hard drive. When i try to use Elements, i get the following error code   ERROR  150:30. Any ideas?

    Did you use migration assistant to copy over programs, documents, and settings? You can't do that with PSE. Elements is not a tidy package in accordance with the apple developer guidelines. The installer strews stuff all of your hard drive in place the migration assistant isn't programmed to look and you can never hope to find all h the bits. You must always install PSE from scratch on a new machine. By attempting to copy it you have made a lot of trouble for yourself.
    You will need to download and run this:
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    and then you can go around and manually remove what you can reach. Look in applications, your hard drive>library>application support>adobe, your username>library>preferences. In the user library also delete any saved application states for PSE.
    Then you can reinstall from scratch.

  • I cannot access an older time machine backup after installing an new hard drive.

    After installing a new hard drive I tried to access my older backups in time machine but cannot. They are there but do not light up and allow me to access them, or select them.

    First, if you're worried about the possibility of losing a backup set, then your backup strategy is inadequate. You will certainly lose those backups, no matter what you do, when the drive hosting them fails, as it will eventually. If you take data safety seriously, you should have at least two complete, independent backups of all your data, one of which is off-site at all times. I suggest you make a second backup now, before doing anything else.
    The action I suggested won't delete all the snapshots; only the selected one -- unless something goes wrong, which is always possible. Without adequate backups, nothing you do is safe.

  • Help!  Corrupted Clip Speed after Copying to New Hard Drives

    Okay. Here goes... (sorry so long)
    I bought two new hard drives to replace older aging ones as a precaution (for a Feature Film)
    After transfering capture scratch and sequences-- every speed altered clip (50% was now 1000%) OR the in points and out points are not being recognized and have jumped to new spots in the clip (with the corruption)
    I transfered 1st half of film buy hand-- Corrupted.
    I transfered 2nd half using media manager-- Corrupted.
    Two different hard Drives-- two different ways of trasfering-- same problem!
    (also, no matter what I do to return the clips to their orignal state-- they remain screwy!)
    -The "Constant settings" won't stay Constant and keep fliping to Varible. I stretch it out, speed drops to 10%. I drag the end of clip toward head, speed increases.
    Then the clip goes black!
    -I deleted Render Files.
    -I removed attributes.
    -In Time Remap there were mysterious Keyframes that were the culpruts. I deleted but they fought being deleted.
    I bought a ANOTHER Hard drive thinking the Brand I bought was not compatible with MAC (Mercury) -- Same problem with newest hard drive.
    Phew!
    What is Going on??????!!!!!! Can ANYONE help Me???????

    Keep CALM? If you knew what I've gone through to make this project...! Two YEARS! I've been working on this for two crippling years!!! I'm just about to finish... and tradegy strikes!!!!
    I wasn't calm at the time... I am now. (thanks to Jack Daniels-- and five minutes of beating my head on a wall)
    I tried the new sequence thing. Didn't work.
    Regarding the FCPrescue program you speak of. I downloaded a similar one called FCPattic-- there are no instructions for either program on how they work... I have no idea what it did, but I pushed the backup button, but I don't know what was supposed to happen or where to retrieve any back up info...(?)
    Re: Trashing Preferences:
    There are two files in the preferences folder...
    1. "com.apple.finalcut.plist"
    2. "final cut preferences" (which has a red and black icon)
    I don't know which is the one I should trash?
    Can you give me some insight?
    Thanks for responding, Andynick.

  • Photo files moved to new hard drive, need to re-connect photo tagging

    Moved back catalog of photos from an almost full internal hard drive to a new larger external hard drive.
    Elements Organizer is now unable to locate tagged photos on the new hard drive
    Is it possible to re-connect the photo tagging ?

    If you can go back and do a PSE backup/restore that would be your best and easiest approach.

  • Can't install OSX after I installed new hard drive

    Okay so my 2009 MacBook pro would not start up, took it to the genius bar and they said I need a new hard drive. I installed a Western Digital blue Scorpio one from Best Buy and now when I turn on the computer I just get a flashing folder with a question mark.  I've tried holding down c or option when rebooting, and rebooting with and without the OSX install DVD. I'm never given any options and it either starts up to a blank screen or to the question mark. What am I doing wrong?

    You need to prep the drive first:
    Drive Preparation and Installation
    1. Boot from your OS X 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.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    7. Quit DU after formatting and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    Booting From An OS X Installer Disc
    1. Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
    2. Restart the computer.
    3. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
    4. Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears.
    5. Wait for installer to finish loading.

  • How to use Time Machine before and after installing a new hard drive

  • What to do after putting in new hard drive?

    I have installed a new hard drive into my macbook pro, but I'm not sure where to go from here. Should I plug in my external hard drive before or after booting my macbook pro? And then what do I do? Will Mavericks re-install, along with all my other applications? P.S. First time doing this ever.

    Then you should be able to boot from that time machine drive to a version of the Mavericks Recovery HD and froom there use disk utility to partition and format the drive Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and the partition table set to GUID. That is under the Options button.
    Then once that is done you can restore your system from that TM backup from that same original option screen.
    To boot from your TM backup drive have it connected and turn on your Mac then at the chime hold down the Option key and a boot selection screen will come up. Select the External as the boot source.
