How do i view files on my verbatim - Verbatim External, USB 2.0, 750GB Capacity, Silver . 750 GB Hard Drive

You should be able to open windows explorer, navigate to the external hard drive, click on it and see the files which are there. Then you can pick the ones you want to delete and delete them.

Copy the CD Rom files to a large thumb drive. Setup and install the programs from there. If that does not work, contact Verbatim customer support: http://www.verbatim.com/contact-us/

on properties on filing system go to view files and unhide files this will un hide every file on the computer so don't change the system files that are hidden, find the files that you are looking for and go into properties of the file and change them to un hidden. and press ok this will make them unhidden after you have done this to all files you need put the filing system back to original way your files will be seen but all hidden files will be back hidden.

Hi suey,

If youre lucky, your files are only hidden.

In windows explorer (my computer), go to tools, then folder options. In the "view" tab;

- click 'show hidden files and folders'

unclick "hide extensions...' and 'hide protection...'

Hope this works,

Cheers,

kc

The usual limit is exactly 2GB, not 1GB.
It's a limitation of the file-system used for the directory of the disk-drive, when formatted according to the 'FAT32' specifications.

So, copy all the files currently on the Verbatim to your disk-drive.
Then, "reformat" the external (not the "internal") disk-drive, using the 'NTFS' file-system. This file-system has a maximum-file-size limitation for one file that is _much_ larger than the capacity of your Verbatim.

Then, copy all the "saved" files back onto the Verbatim.

Finally, copy your "large" files onto the Verbatim.

1. Connect the memory stick to your PC.
2. Open to view contents
3. Press 'Ctrl + A' on the keyboard to select all files and folders.
4. Press Delete
5. Finished

Please rate my solution. Thanks!

Contact Verbatim, it has a lifetime warranty. Or return it to the store.

Shut your computer down. Disconnect you external hardrive. Power up your computer again. Power up the Verbatim and then connect to a USB port. You should hear a very quiet 'ping'.

Go to My Computer, and the Verbatim should be showing as one of your drives (probably Drive D). You should be able to open it from there.

Make sure that you have a Desk Top Icon for opening the hardrive, it makes it so much easier. Hope this helps

usb drives dont have manuals the computer automatically detect the drive.

in saving files it is the same when you save in a floppy or other drives.
