Hardware :: Copying Material To An External Hard Drive?

Feb 26, 2009

I recently purchased a Western Digital "My Passport Essential" 160mb external hard drive. When I attempt to transfer "any" type of material (JPEGS, PSD, MP3, MPEG, etc) from my 600 MHz PowerPC G3 (iMac) operating on an OS X, to the external hard drive, the file's "Date Modified" (date and time) "mysteriously" changes to the time at which I'm copying the files. For example, a file that was last saved on July 1, 2008 and then transferred (copied) on February 26, 2009 to the external drive, suddenly appears with a "new" February 26, 2009 saved date.

Because, I've always viewed my files by the "Date Modified" option at the top of the folder, I've relied on my files for its accurate date and times.

I got a WD10EALX Cabiar Blue drive last week and copied my existing internal drive that had Tiger OSX on it.

Intel Mac :: How To Transfer All Data From Old Internal Hard Drive To A New Internal Hard Drive?

Feb 10, 2012

How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive? I have an iMac with a 320gb internal HD that is full and I am replacing it with a 2tb internal drive. I have several external drives; 1 tb, 2tb and 3 tb. The 2 tb is being used for Time Machine. Do I have to buy an enclosure? If so, where would I get an inexpensive one? I also want to partition the new internal drive for Windows, and I'm not sure how much space to use for that. I plan to use Windows to check my work in PowerPoint created on my Mac for clients on PCs.

iPod shuffle, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Intel Mac :: Using External Hard Drive As Both A Boot Drive And Timemachine Backup?

Mar 8, 2012

My internal 1TB hard drive on my iMac is dead and I don't have the money to replace it at the moment. I have everything backed up on an external 1TB drive using Time Machine. As a workaround for the time being,Is there any way I can install the system on the external drive and use that as the boot drive without erasing the Time Machine Backups?  It seems to me I would have to have two partitions for the external drive, one for the system, and one for Time Machine. But is there any way to add a partition without erasing the existing one with Time Machine only on it?

OS X :: Copying Large Files To USB Hard Disk?

Jul 2, 2009

I recently picked up a USB Hard Disk, I plan on copying large files to it (for example 20gb VMs), I am wondering whether or not finder can copy files as large as 20gb one at a time because the last time I tried to do this on a USB Stick, the file transfer would either freeze or would end up taking way too long to transfer and in the end I had to pull it out and having to reformat it. DOes anyone here know if such things will happen again copying these files?

MacBook Pro :: Copying CD's To A Drive As 192k Mp3?

Jun 7, 2012

I have a Macbook Pro, and an external drive USB connected. 

I want to use this drive as a USB HD for my TV to stream my personal CD's from my TV and hifi system, to play. 

Is there a way to copy all of my CD's direct to the drive but as 192k MP3's and not AIFF files? 

I don't necessarily need iTunes to do this, but I think this may be my only option? To quickly copy my albums to a drive as MP3's, would it be better to set up iTunes? 

I don't want the tunes going onto my Macbook Pro first, just direct to the drive but being converted first.. 

even possible with a PC (as I have a laptop) if its easier via windows

Info:
MacBook Pro i7 8GB - iPhone 4, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Copying Files Between Hard Disks Interrupted By Error Code -36

Mar 18, 2012

This error probably indicates a hardware problem or some system malfunction. I usually try to find out what exactly went wrong to take measures to avoid the repetition of the same problem. Exchanging the HD and restoring the sytem may be the quicker solution, but I would miss an opportunity to reconfigure my system to make it more robust. 

The system in question is a MacMini (Model A1347) with Os-X-Server 10.6.7. and 2 physical HDs: HD1 has 2 Partitions, the smaller for the server OS, the larger for the Shares (We use the MacMini only as a file server). HD2 is not used (was kept in reserve for cases like this).  

That there may be a problem manifested itself first when the mounting of the shares on HD1 became suddenly slow (within 2-3 days) and eventually failed. I first tried to copy all the files from the shares on HD1 to HD2 before attempting any repair actions. Most of the files copied properly but a few failed with error (-36). Those few can be restored from backups, so there is no data loss. Remains the question, what went wrong?  

It may be pure coincidence but just before the File-Server failed there was an attempt to upgrade a 3rd party software on one of the clients (17'' MacBook Pro / OS X 10.6.8) to a newer version. Could be that new version was part of the problem because the data files of this 3rd party software are stored on one of the shares on HD1 and the data file format has been changed between the versions. For obvious reasons I need to make sure that this data file conversion was not the cause of the problem?

1) first check the HD1 with a different tool than DiskUtility (It thinks the HD1 is in perfect shape), TechTool Pro or DiskWarrier comes to my mind, any reason to prefer one over the other? 

2) Hopefully those tools can reliably test whether the HD1 is damaged or not. If it is the former the HD1 replacement option is the way to go and there is no more reason the 3rd party software may have been involved. However if HD1 is not damaged I'm left with the uncertainty of what exactly lead to the problem..? 

3) Is there any check I should do before I just re-format the HD and re-install the OS and switch back to  an earlier version of the 3rd party software to be on the safe side?

OS X :: Copying Large Files To Network Drive

Nov 22, 2009

I've recently purchased a NAS drive and would now like to copy about 500 GB of files onto it. Obviously this is a slow process! Is there a way I can set up the copy so that if it gets interrupted I can resume the transfer? At the moment the I just know X of 100 GB has been transferred. On the destination drive you can't see any of the files being transferred across until the entire operation is complete (on a pc you can normally see the files that have been transferred immediately) ... I'm a bit worried that if I turn my laptop off or I have any network issues the transfer will fail..

Intel Mac :: Copying From Shuffle To It?

May 19, 2012

I recently moved from PC to iMac, and I can't sync all of my music from my shuffle to the Mac. There's one tune that I copied from a CD that is now kaput. Is there a way to move the good version from my shuffle to my iMac? When I try to play the track from iTunes, I get a message similar to this: "The song 'xx' could not be used because the orignial file could not be found. Would you like to locate it." I tried "manually manage music" but I couldn't make that work. Everything else threatens to sync with my iMac iTunes which will wipe out what I want to keep. Oddly, iTunes has done this to a large number of my tracks almost all from CD's I own, rather than from compilations people have given me. So, to redo my iTunes list I will need to reinsert lots of CD's.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4)
