Windows's Restoration wizard is no longer recognising the WindowsImageBackup, when moved from one external HD into another one.

Hi,
I created WindowsImageBackup a three-month period ago and saved it on an external hard disk. Then, I have moved/cut this WindowsImageBackup from the  external hard disk was first saved on while created   into a subfolder
on another different external hard disk. Whenever now clicked 'advanced recovery methods', then chose use ' a system image'. However, when I booted into Windows environment, I didn't see that the external drive containing image wasn't listed, although I have
clicked on 'refresh' while external drive is plugged. When clicked on the 'advance' button, then click 'located driver if the drive isn't listed' link, I could naviaged into the external hard disk, which means it is recognised by Windows and it doesn't need
a driver.
NOTE: the image is for the same OS installed on my computer.
I really want to keep many full different Windows Image Backups, then when create  Windows Image Backup, I moved it into subfolder in order the next new don't delete the older one.
I was expecting that this is because while external HD containing image is plugged in the USB3 port, however, when I let it plugged in the USB2 port, the drive wasn't listed in the list
A man should convert his anger and sadness into strength to continue living in this life.

Thanks a lot,
NOTE: system image Disc containing(old images, WindowsImageBackup1,2,3, and so on) wasn't listed/found, and not the Restoration  failed
Let me give you this scenario:
I have created a Windows image backup for OS partition(C) and Data partition(D). Second: I have saved the created image into an external hard disk
Third: When the WindowImageBackup created in the external hard disk. I tried booting into Windows environment, and the wizard found the image automatically.
Froth: I have moved the 'WidnowsImageBackup' from a partition on an external hard disk (A) into another external hard disk(B)
Fifth: I have done some changes on the OS system(such as installing programs and so on) and data partition(such as adding data and so on)
Fifty: I have decided to create a new WindowsImageBackup and save it into external disk 'B', but before that I have done, I must rename 'WidnowsImageBackup by  incrementing '1' after 'WidnowsImageBackup' in order ton not be overwritten.
Sixth: I created the new 'WindowsImageBackup'
The WindowsImageBackup  just created is recognised by Windows's resoration wizard because it wasn't moved. However, windowsImageBAckup1 isn't recognised because it wasn't saved here, however, it was pasted here from another location.
I would like to save many full images:
WindowsImagBackup
windowsImageBackup1
-------------------------2
-------------------------3
and so on.
However, as I said before, when booting into Windows's restoration wizard, then clicked on 'selcte an image', I didn't find any option to search for the image.
Yes, there is an option saying 'if you don't see your 'system image disc' listed in the image location, then you can pluge your disc and click on refresh. I have done but only the 'WindowsImagBackup' created on the same external disc was 
found. Even those images created in same external disc, but their main folder 'WindowsImageBackup' changed into 'WindowsImageBackup1, 2, 3 and so one were not found'
If someone wants to save many full WindowsImageBackups, then how can he be doing?
NOTE: Although I have read in the Windows help support what is below, I when I have copied the older system images into another locations, they became unrecognised/found in the restoration Wizard:
Keeping different versions of system images
If you're saving your system images on an internal or external
drive, or on CDs or DVDs, you can keep several versions of system images. On
internal and external hard drives, older system images will be deleted when the
drive runs out of space. To help conserve disk space, you can manually delete
older system images. For more information, see What backup
settings should I use to maximize my disk space?
If you're saving your system images in a network location, you can
only keep the most current system image for each computer. System images are
saved in the format of drive\WindowsImageBackup\computer
name\. If you have an existing system image for a computer and are
creating a new one for the same computer, the new system image will overwrite
the existing one. If you want to keep the existing system image, you can copy it
to a different location before creating the new system image by following these
steps:
Navigate to the location of the system image.
Copy the WindowsImageBackup
folder to a new location.

  • Outlook 2010: Draft emails taking a very long time to appear when moved from user to user

    Hi all,
    One of our users (user 1) has full access to another's mailbox (user 2). When user 1 creates a draft email and moves it to user 2's draft box it can take a LONG time to appear.
    I understand that a lot of Exchange processes can take up to 24 hours to process - as far as I am aware this is not one of these instances?
    Any advice is appreciated.

    So it will finally get transferred to the target mailbox. Does it only happen to draft messages? What about other messages?
    After moving the message, please check on the OWA (Outlook Web App) and see if the message appears in the target mailbox. Also, please make sure you are on a stable network connection while moving the messages between these two mailboxes.

  • My computer no longer recognises the Airport base station network

    I presently have wireless broadband internet access on my iBook (using a Belkin wireless ethernet router connected by an ethernet cable to my airport.)
    I also have an Airport Express in another room connected to my stereo for playing all my iTunes songs wirelessly.
    The problem arose in that if i wanted to listen to my music I had to switch between networks, meaning i couldn't surf the net and listen to music at the same time.
    A few nights ago I tried to 'merge' the networks using Airport set-up assistant (or admin utility, I forget which).
    Now, my computer no longer recognises the Airport base station network, just the Express one.
    Is there a way of listening to my music and using the internet at the same time, and how do I get my internet working again in the first place!
    Many thanks
    Jono

    Rebooted Airport Express and now working

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

  • Lightroom - how to restore backed up files (not Lightroom catalogue) from one external drive to another?

    How to restore backed up files (not lightroom catalogue) from one external drive to another.
    I recently backuped my photo files from one external drive to another. The backup (carbon copy cloner) pointed to some corrupt files on the original drive.
    I have deleted those files and am finding good copies of them  in Time Machine backups.
    I want to get rid of the original external drive; use the recent backup as my main external and then back it up onto a brand new drive.
    What I am not sure about is how to point lightroom to the backups so it knows to look on the new drive instead of the old drive and all those exclamation marks and question marks go away.
    There are close to 60,000 images in numerous folders all with one 'parent folder.'
    My best guess is from Lightroom Help - Create and Manage Folders -  Locate Missing Folders
    Can I point to the one parent folder and all the subfolders will come back?
    Is this the process to recover files into lightroom and will there be a problem with so many photos?

    I have a Windows 7 laptop using I tunes 64 and all my music files are
    on an external disc. I rarely use I tunes and at one point moved all my files
    (including the music files) from one external disc to another without
    considering what affect this would have on the I tunes library. When I eventually
    attempted to use I tunes, every selected a song from the library resulted in a
    message stating that the file couldn't be located. After following some of the procedures
    explained in this community I was able to reconnect the library back to where
    the associated music files are presently stored. However, there are still 2
    problems that need to be corrected. 1) Every song file now has a duplicate. One
    file works and the other file will result in the same message stating that the
    file couldn't be located. Before there were 4,000 songs in the library, now
    there are 8,000 songs. I need to eliminate the 4,000 dead song files. 2) All
    the playlists are still associated with the dead song files which makes the
    playlists unusable. Can the playlists be reconnected to the usable files
    without manually having to recreate them? Thanks in advance for the help.

    So am I understanding correctly?
    You used your iPod as a hard drive (drag and drop) instead of having iTunes install the music?
    If you used drag and drop your choices are different than if you used iTunes to transfer.
    Good luck!

  • I wiped my ipod classic and then my computer crashed, so i no longer have the songs i purchsed from itunes on my ipod or computer! I have a new computer now with itunes installed, can I get the songs purchased previously from itunes somehow?

    I wiped my ipod classic and then my computer crashed, so i no longer have the songs i purchsed from itunes on my ipod or computer! I have a new computer now with itunes installed, can I get the songs purchased previously from itunes somehow?

    Yes, you can!(:
    STEP 1: Open iTunes
    STEP 2: Navigate to the "iTunes Store". It can be found under the "STORE" tab.
    STEP 3: On the right side of the store there should be a "Quick Links" Section. Click on the "Purchased" link.
    STEP 4: Navigate to the "Music" tab and click on "All Songs". Then at the bottom of the screen there will be a button that says "Download All". Click the button and your songs will be begin downloading!
    NOTE: This will only work with songs that you bought from the iTunes store, if you imported them from a CD, you will have to do it again.
    NOTE: You can also do this with Apps, Movies, TV Shows, and Books.
    NOTE: You may have to sign in with your Apple ID to verify the download.
    Hope this helped! Enjoy your music!(:

  • Bring Excel 2007 to the front when called from LabView v9 in Windows 7

    I am building a duplicate system using Windows 7, LabView v9 and Excel v2007.  The original system used WinXP, Excel 2007 and LabView v8.6.  The issue is that the original system was able to bring Excel to the front when called from Labview using the property node -application-> visible.  This new configuration runs Excel, loads the data, runs the macros but does not bring Excel to the front.  The icon blinks in the Win7 taskbar and when selected displays over LabView.  If I minimize the Labview window, Excel is there.  This leads me to conclude that Excel is visible, as requested but will not come to the front until selected from the taskbar.  The only differences, besides the versions, is the original system template files used the .xls extension in and was run in Excel in compatible mode.  At the customers request, the new system uses the .xlsm extension on the Excel template files.  I have tried using application.visible = True in the macro as well.  Could be a setting in Labview?  Could be a setting in Excel? Could be .xls vs. .xlsm? Or an issue with Windows 7 and the newer version of Labview.

    Thank you in advance

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I will try the windowstate change.  Were these done in succession? (i.e. property node -> property node -> property node) Or were they done along the way such as call the ActiveX open and a property node then in a worksheet modification area etc. so there was some time between calls? 
    I am not sure about the API since the discussion there is with regard to DDE.  (Taken from the link document:  If you want to call a DLL that contains ActiveX
    objects, use the Automation
    Open VI with the Property
    Node and the Invoke
    Node.).  I am calling Excel as an application not as a library call unless I am mistaken, which I could certainly be.  Are you thinking that once Excel is active through the Automation Open VI that a DLL call to set the application visible would work?  I may be trying this already but in Excel through the use of the macro I call from LabView.  It contains application.visible = True at the beginning before reading files and plotting data.  
    I may try sprinkling Property node with application->visible in various locations in the LabView diagram as I do update cells after the call to the plot macro.  The puzzle for me is the blinking Excel icon in the task bar.  This means active and running but not visible or something wrong as well.  There are a few #VALUE cells if not all test in the system are run.  Again not a problem in Excel 2007-WinXP-LV8.6
    Thank you again one and all.

  • I have a Iphone 42 and want to transfer my photos to my PC why does my computer not recognise the Iphone when I connect it to the pc?

    Can any help. I want to transfer photos on my Iphone 4s to my PC, my computer will not recognise the phone when I connect via the USB port to the PC.  Any Ideas would be appreciated.

    Do you get any response from the computer when you plug the phone in? I'm guessing that you are going into Computer to see if you find the phone? If you go into Device Manager, do you see any errors in the USB area?
