Using ereader to read books stored in the hard drive on a Lifedrive

I have a Lifedrive that I use for ebook reading. I have been merrily adding books to it and reading away until today. I bought a batch of ebooks in the ereader format from Fictionwise and used palmOne Quick Install to add them to my Lifedrive like I normally do. When I synced I found out some books didn't add due to insufficient memory. OK, the Lifedrive shows 3.6 G free, so I'm assuming all the books have been storing in the program memory and now that is full. So my question is---how do I get the ebooks into the hard drive partition and how do I get the Ereader app to find them so I can read my books?? Can I also shift ebooks already on the Lifedrive in program memory to the harddrive partion? How? Do I need to move the ereader apptothe harddrive,if so how do I do that? I'm assuming I will also have to this with any mobipocket books I buy in the future also.
PS- I know I could just delete books to free up space, but I am a speed reader and I often go back and reread old books so I'd like to keep them handy. Besides what is the use of having 3+G on my Lifedrive if I can't use it for ebooks, the main reason I have this device.
Thanks!!

Hello ffyrebird, Welcome to the Palm Support Community.
Have you tried a Soft Reset yet? Many times the "out of memory" error does not refer to Storage Memory, but to physical RAM (aka DbCache).
A Soft Reset will clear out the working RAM area and may fix your problem.

I have a late 2011 mac book pro and I'm wondering if it uses SATA II or SATA III for the hard drive? Which eventually I'm going to replace with a SSD.

I was wondering if the late 2011 macbook pro uses SATA II or SATA III for the hard drive. The reseason I'm asking this is because some day I'm going to replace the Hard drive for a SSD drive down the road and would like to use all the performance of the SATA controler.

SATA III.

My mac won't recognise my new belkin hub hardware. Any Suggestions? It used to recognise it before I had the hard drive replaced

My mac won't recognise my new belkin hub hardware. Any Suggestions? It used to recognise it before I had the hard drive replaced and now it doesn't.

Pull out all of your USB devices, and reboot. Now, replace the USB devices they way you'd like them to work. That reassigns the devices so you can use them again.
Respond here...I'm interested how this turns out.

Where are my pictures stored on the hard drive when I import them into Aperture?

I imported pictures into Aperature under the project name Christmas 2012. When I went into Finder to see where the pictures were actually placed on my hard disk, the folder didn't show up anywhere. These are new photos that I added to my hard drive.
I then thought I would do a file search on some of the photos. One picture's file name was IMG_2260. When I searched All My Files for this file, it produced two different photos with the exact same file name IMG_2260!
Now I'm really confused! Any help would be appreciated.

. It just seems strange to me to not be able to find the actual photos with Finder.
The actual photos do not exist as image files, until you export them. The only images that do exist are the originals that you import into Aperture. When you adjust images, enhance them, crop them, Aperture will only store the command, but not actually create the edited version.
That has three advantages:
Aperture saves space, because only the original image is stored.
Aperture can easily undo any operation and you have a lossless workflow.
Many adjustments can be accumulated into one operation and done very precisely, because the image need not to be rendered to 8Bit or 16 Bit versions in between. Only the final version needs to be encoded as image file.
So, since the edited images do only exist in a state of limbo, you do not see them in the library as images.

When you search for the originals with Spotlight or file search from the Finder, you may find the originals and previews of edited versions, that Aperture creates to share with the Media Browser. In addition to exporting the images, you can access them using the Media Browser from all applications that are compatible with iLife: Mail, Pages, Keynote, iWeb, ...

HT4527 can I use itunes to read music on an external hard drive without migrating my music

I would like to house my music on an external and not on my pc. Can I route iTunes this way? If so, what do I need to do special, as when I routed it, iTunes did not see the music files.
Thanks.

You need to either launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and create a new library on that drive, or set it not to import music to the iTunes Media folder, or use a program other than iTunes to play it.

Users itune is stored to the hard drive and not in it's users music folder.

I have 4 users on the same Imac. Updated to Mountain OS x 10.8.5. i have a user itunes that is being saved to the harddrive and i would like it to be stored to it's respective users music folders. How do i set that users itune to be stored inside of that users music folder. I don't actually know if one of the users have to save their music on the harddrive. But i would like to still be able to share music between all of the libraries still. Thanks

Where are my passwords stored on the hard drive in Firefox 16?

I recently upgraded to Windows 8 and went from Windows 7, and I just forgot to backup (yeah, I know, it's stupid) my profile with the passwords. The windows.old folder is there, with my old profile and all, but I can't seem to find the passwords. In every article I have read about this it says the same "find the key3.db and signons.sqlite in the profile folder". But there is NONE in my Firefox profile folder.
To see if it had just disappeard from my windows.old folder, I installed Firefox 16 and saved a password. But it's the same there, the files does not exist, at all.
Does it work differently in Firefox 16? Or is Windows 8 just pure evil?

hello Nirvasher, it sounds like you may be looking at a wrong folder - this shouldn't have changed with firefox 16. the following article explains how to get into the profile folder: [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]

I had a brand new Mac book pro one month old and the hard drive died. Right before it died I was down loading pictures off a memory card and now they aren't on my memory card! They are wedding pictures I took for a friend and irreplaceable! Please help!!

I had a one month old Mac book pro and the hard drive fried! I was down loading a friends wedding pictures when it stopped working and started heating up. I plugged it in and turned it off as it was making a clicking noise. When I turned it back on the was a grey box with a question mark and nothing else. When I took my memory card out the pictures were gone. I took it back to best buy where I bought it and they said it was dead, needed a new hard drive and all my info is lost! Is there any way to get back those irreplaceable wedding pictures?

There are some data recovery programs (software). I would look into that for the images on the card. When files are deleted, the files are still there, just the headers are removed. That being said, a format of the card or new files written to the card can overwrite deleted files.
The physical hard drive could be thousands of dollars to forensically save, with no guarantee.

I have a sony HDR-SR5 camcorder and need to empty the iternal hard-drive. I have downloaded onto Picture Motion Browser and woud like to know if this will have stored all of the data on the hard-drive so can go back and edit later.

I have a Sony HDR-SR5 camcorder with a 40GB internal hard-drive. I need to clear the hard-drive as it's almost full. I have managed to download the footage onto Picture Motion Browser, but am wondering whether PMB will have stored all the info from the camcorder hard-drive so that I can edit later.
Also, I would like to back-up on another hard-drive, but when I have tried this I can't view the footage stored on the hard-drive so am not sure whether I have backed up sufficiently and in what format? If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd be very grateful...

>I have managed to download the footage onto Picture Motion Browser
Isn't Picture Motion Browser available for Windows only? If so, why are you posting in an Final Cut Express forum? My apologies if I'm incorrect.

Storing CDs on hard drive?

Recently got an ipod 30gb and started to transfer CDs into itunes. Just wondering whether you have to keep the CDs stored on the hard drive of my PC after i have transferred them to the ipod? If not im going to fill up the hard drive very quickly!

You Mikey this question is asked at least every week.
You can do what you ask but its not the desired configuration. You will have to switch the pod to manual sync. Then it won't remove songs from the pod. However I do believe you will need to leave the links in itunes but can delete the files.
If you don't backup your music before you do this then you are highly at risk of losing all your music. The pod is too easily stolen, damaged, corrupted or lost to be the only location where your music is stored.
With the pod connected. If you go to Edit > Preferences and click on the ipod tab. You should see the settings there.

HT201250 I had files stored on a hard drive that were not on my Mac. I used the hard drive for my first Time Machine back up, but it was not enough hard drive space to finish. Now those stored files are gone. Is there any way I can recover them?

I had files stored on a hard drive that were not on my Mac. I used the hard drive for my first Time Machine back up, but it was not enough hard drive space to finish. Now those stored files are gone. Is there any way I can recover them? No, they were not part of previous Time Machine backups, and I have checked both the hard drive the documents were lost on and the new one that I now use for backups. Any suggestions would be helpful, as the lost files are old pictures that are gone forever. :[ Thanks!

1. Yes, if both drives are formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
2. Reformat the drives if needed, open the Time Machine pane of System Preferences, and remove the drive with the pictures from the list of items set to be excluded.

I have a pc that is one year old and the hard drive is crashing we use it only for quick books to run our small business I would like to buy a macmini and install the OS from the pc to the apple product i will not use the pc after, can i use the OS off the pc or do I have to purchase another?

I think you can get Windows 7 for around $99. Install the 64bit version as the 32bit version will not be able to use all your new computer's ram if you have more than about 3.5gb.
Back up your quick books data now before the old hard drive dies. You can copy your data over to your new installation of Windows and quick books.
By the way, there is quick books for Mac http://quickbooks.intuit.com/mac/?sc=BNR-000-COR-quickbooks&priorityCode=4902000 000&cid=ppc_google_QB-Intuit-Core-Brand-Mac_quick-books-for-mac_exact&site=&ad_i d=9347918288&raw_keyword=quick%20books%20for%20mac
So you may not need to install Windows at all.

My hard drive on my Mac Book Pro failed last week. I replaced the hard drive today and had to use my snow leopard disc that came with the computer to get teh thing going. I was running Mt Lion which I had purchased last year on the old dr

The hard drive on my Mac Book Pro failed last week. I just put a new Samsung SSD in this thing and had to load the Snow Leopard OS that came with the computer. I had Mt. Lion on the old drive that I had purchased last year but no boot disc made. I have made several attempts to get the Mt lion soft ware on the computer but the Apple store does not have it only mavericks but my Snow Leopard version is too old for it so I cant get it either. How do I get something to run the software that I had on the old drive?

Unfortunately I lost my life and am trying to rebuild. Isn't the technical era great.
Backup, backup, backup
As a minimum, use 3-2-1 (or even more)
3 copies of your data (original copy counts as 1)
2 different backup utilities/storage formats (protects from bugs in the software)
1 copy off-site (protects against theft, fire, and natural disaster)
More backup copies are even better.
Backup disks are cheap compared to the lost of personal data that does not exist anywhere else.
