    Will Time Machine work with an external hard drive connected (via usb) to Airport Extreme?

    Sorry, but this article is about 4 years old, and was printed based on preliminary information at the time.
    The bottom line here is that Apple does not officially support Time Machine backups to a drive at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme.
    If it works for you, great.
    You might want to review the Apple Support documents below, which are far more recent than the article you reference:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/15139.html

    It is supported.....
    This is NOT correct. Please do not post false information on the forums.

    If you're using multiple partitions, no. If you're using an image with Parallels Desktop or VMware Fusion, only if an Erase & Install is done.

  • I was thinking about buy an 128GB SSD Macbook Pro, will it work with my external hard drive if i plugged it in through USB still?

    Well basically I've heard the hype about SSD and i was thinking about buying a mac with a 128GB SSD, but i was wondering, if i plugged in my 320GB external hard drive, would it work with an SSD mac? Or, do i need and internal hard drive for it to be compatible with my external one?

    You can replace your internal drive with a SSD and buy an external enclosure for your 320GB from OWC.
    No problems.

  • 24" LED Cinema Display not working with Mac Pro

    I have a Mac Pro (2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core, model identifier MacPro5,1) purchased in late 2010 and a 24" LED Cinema Display. The Mac Pro has three video ports--a full-sized DVI and two mini DVI. When I plug the Cinema Display into either of the mini DVI ports, I cannot get a picture, although the iSight camera works fine. If I plug another monitor into the full-sized DVI port the computer believes that is the only monitor. The Cinema Display works fine with my MacBook, so there is nothing physically wrong with it.
    Is it not possible to use this monitor with a Mac Pro without an adapter, even though the Mac Pro does have mini DVI ports?

    We had the same issue and these drivers solved the problem.

  • How Can I Get an 23" Cinema Display to work with a MacBook Pro 15"?

    A 23" Cinema Display (M8536) will not display with and adapter connected to a MacBook Pro 15" (mid 2010). Adapter used is Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter. What's wrong?

    They removed the audio input, starting from your model, you will need an USB interface, there are may, and it depends on how high of quality you need.
    This works for most applications, unless you are trying to record "music quality"

  • DVD player that will work with a portable hard drive

    I have a large collecion of movie on my hard drive. I am interested in purchasing a new DVD player and am interested in being able to transfer movies from my computer to a western digital / My passbook portable USB hard drive. and play them directly from the had drive without burning them to a DVD disk. Any suggestions?

    I think some DivX-certified players can play DivX content from USB storage devices and not just disc media.  Anything that works with thumb drives should work with external hard drives.
    One exception:  2.5" hard drives need a LOT of power from the USB port, some players might not like this.  3.5" hard drives with an external power supply are a safe bet with anything that supports thumb drives.
    A PS3 will definitely do the trick.  Many Blu-Ray players are likely to do it too.  BBY lists 41 Blu-Ray players with USB ports - but on some of those the USB port may only be for WiFi, not sure.

  • Will Time Machine work with my networked hard drive?

    I asked this question this question a couple years ago https://discussions.apple.com/message/9961900#9961900 and was wondering if there was an update as to whether Time Machine will work with a networked drive?
    Will it work?
    Does Apple officially support this method?
    I'm using Chronosync now, and it's good, but every once in a while it'll hickup.
    Thanks so much

    Nothing has changed, other than the fact that we are seeing a lot more posts from users having probems who have tried this unsupported method of backups.
    Apple is prety clear on this in their support documentation. They say that you cannot do this.
    Results vary with users who try this anyway. Some have difficulties immediately with corruption issues, others have successful backups for a few weeks to even a few months before they have difficuties. Count me as  one who thought they had somehow beat the system, but after 4 weeks, things collapsed.
    Forum expert Pondini has an appropriate saying about this issue, which I am sure I am not quoting exactly:
    There are two types of users who attempt Time Machine backups to a drive attached to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme....those who have problems, and those who will have problems.

  • Will installing mac os 10.6.3 wipe off my hard drive?

    Hello
    I have a macbook running on a Mac OS X 10.5.8 and want to upgrade it to 10.6.3. I have the operating system disks. I haven't backed up my hard drive. Can I install the new operating system without fear of wiping off my hard drive?
    Please only answer if you KNOW FOR SURE...>I don't need anyone to say 'maybe' 'probably'....
    Thanks
    Chiara

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I agree with the former poster. It is not a question of if data will be lost, but when. Furthermore, not every piece of software that is compatible with 10.5 is compatible with 10.6. If you don't backup your data, don't come and complain when you have to erase your machine just to downgrade back to 10.5 to regain some sort of compatibility. Read my upgrade FAQ*:

    If you follow it, you should not have any problems.

  • Using my Mac to Boot a PC with a bad hard drive...

    Hello all,
    I have a Dell laptop with a blown-out hard drive (big surprise). I want to figure out a way to access it from my Mac, I feel like there should be a way to do this...
    Do I have to be running Windows? (because I don't, and won't)

    First things first, if your laptop hard drive is blown then do not try booting up the laptop anymore as any further attempts to boot will significantly impact your chances of successfully recovering any data from the hard drive.
    Your best bet for recovering any data from the drive is to buy a either of the following;
    a) a external IDE or SATA laptop drive enclosure
    e.g.
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Market-Express-External-Enclosure-Silver/dp/B001IYMC7Q/r ef=sr12?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1227952799&sr=8-2
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/MY-Link-USB2-0-External-Drive-Enclosure/dp/B000MRJIEA/re f=sr13?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1227952799&sr=8-3
    or
    b) a device like the Magic Bridge II or similar
    http://heisei.manufacturer.globalsources.com/si/6008800559562/pdtl/LAN-card/1003 474567/Magic-Bridge-II-Dual-Interface-Storage-Bridge.htm
    Note: I have no affiliation with either amazon or Heisei other then owning a Magic Bridge II myself for precisely the same predicament as the one you find yourself in now.
    Both of these options will require that you remove the hard drive from the laptop and hook it up to either the enclosure or the Magic Bridge II.
    Once the hard drive is hooked up you will then be able to plug the hard drive into your iMac or another PC and if you're lucky, the hard drive will spin up and be available as a new volume on the computer.
    If you have a small amount of data you need to recover then you can pull off whatever data you need onto the host computer.
    If you need to recover the majority of the drive then you can use a Windows PC to do the recovery and have something like Paragon Drive Image, Acronis TrueImage or Norton Ghost then use that to make an image of the whole hard drive. Using an imaging tool will enable you to make a complete backup of the drive in the shortest possible time.
    Have just remembered that you said that you don't want to use/won't use a Windows PC, so in this case you can also use CCC or SuperDuper on the Mac to make a backup of the drive in question.
    Once the drive becomes available you then need to copy whatever data you need off the drive as quickly as possible. This is because, in my experience at least, once hard drives start to fail they invariably fail quicker and more often once they have reached their normal operating temperature. The hard drive bearings can also wear out and this can lead to read/write failures, another reason why the recovery process needs to be as quick as possible.
    Should you fail to recover the data you need at this stage then your only realistic option is to hand the drive to a data recovery company for them to make a best attempt at recovery.

  • Work with an external hard drive

    Hi everyone. I use iMovie 6.0.3 a lot and I need to save the imported clips, but they are using up a ton of my disc space. Is it easy to save clips to an external drive, and then get iMovie to see them there and use them? I have a firewire external drive that is formatted to Mac OSX extended.
    Also, if I use a Firewire hub, can I plug my camera and drive in at the same time and have the import save right to the external drive, or do I have to import to my computer, then copy them to the external drive?
    Thanks in advance,
    Kevin

    .. Does the new version of iMovie (7.0) work with external hard drives in the same way? ..
    mainly
    iM08 has a very different concept - iMHD6 stored all data (camera imports, stills, music, ...) in one solid 'package' file. iM08 now has a Library (similiar as iPhoto), which contains all imports (ever), called 'Events', and small Projects, which can be made of any Events (e.g. you can use an import again and again in as many Projects you want.. )
    So, you can easiely locate all or just some Events (=huge files) on ext. HDDs. Locating Projects (=small files) to external drives is possible, but not recommended (HowTo on my site, karsten.schluter.googlepages.com ).
    A considerable workflow is, to buy some harddrives, and make a file management 'manually': store imports/Events by content (vacations, year 2008-10, birds, aliens...), each on a different drive - over the years you build a 'Library' of all your Recordings, and have easy access (plug 'n play).
    iM08 supports the cheaper usb2 drives.
    My workflow with iMHD6 is to erase any project after finishing; my 'raws' are on tape, my projects too + DVDs. With tapeless-camcorders you HAVE to store your recordings on some additional 'memory' = harddrives.
    for a beginning, you can use for sure the internal one, because you're allowed to de-locate any Event later to other drive(s) within iM08 (don't use the Finder to move Events!).
    happy movie making!

  • How can i prevent my Cinema Display 23in From disconnecting my external hard drive?

    I have a mid 2010 Macbook pro 13'' connected to a 23'' Cinema Display and i have an external harddrive connected to the computer through the display to keep cord and clutter clear and also that way i dont have to hook up more than one USB cable when connecting. Every time the computer goes to sleep the external hard drive gets disconnected improperly without ejecting. This is annoying because if i have a document open that is drawing from the harddrive when it does to sleep i risk loosing the file. Is there any setting i can change or way that i can get around this? maybe i shouldnt let it sleep or the display cant turn off? Any input is greatly appreciated. THANKS!

    You copy the library that holds the events and projects.

  • Hp model ac6827c wont work with 1 tb hard drive

    Hi all, bought a brand new seagate barracuda  1000GB for my A6827c to replace the 500 that was full and i was planning to install win7. Any how, put the drive in it gets to end of win install and i get a cant finish due to a hardware issue. the only thing i did was hard drive. Re booted 6 or 7 times but it would not finish. Decided to install my Vista and got to almost the end , same problem. tried partitioning  two 500 gig. that didnt work. Firmware issue??. was on HP searching but found nothing on new Barracuda. Anyone have any ideas.???

    hey, doing further research my barracuda is ST 1000 DM003-1ch162. not on list for firmare upgrade. Just for trial i went to a friens house and tried to install said drive in his older desktop with an slightly older Intel board. Installed Win 7 no problems. now i know the drive is not faulty. In the HP both win7 and vista stop cold when install goes all the way thru and screen shows starting services. Boom ,install stops.I ran Memtest this afternoon, found nothing. installed win7 on a used WD 500 gig with no problems. for the life of me this is a stumper. Its an all on board unit so i even installed a video card and shut of on board vid to see. No change. Could it be a raid driver that needs to be loaded once win is installed but cant be installed because win is not installed??
    Thanks

  • Left USB won't work with mouse or hard drive

    I can only use my right-side USB port with my Mighty Mouse and external hard drive. When plugging either of these accessories into the left-side USB port, the computer does not recognize the items. What could the problem be?
    Thanks for the help!

    Hi, Charlie -
    This Apple KBase article may have info you can use -
    Article #58649 - Apple Pro Keyboard: Devices Connected
    I came across that article shortly after my keyboard died, which was not long after I began having dead-mouse problems.
    I made the assumption that my mouse was overloading the power-passthrough capabilities of the unpowered hub in the keyboard. I reconfigured my USB connection scheme so that the mouse was connected to the powered hub in my monitor and nothing was connected to the keyboard. That was several years ago, and no more problems.
