Common Errors When Converting a Windows File System

Written by Chanaka on Saturday, July 18, 2009

I have posted a article about Convert Windows File System to NTFS on this blog some time ago. To day in this post I'm going to discuss few of the error messages that you might get in the process of converting your drives in to NTFS.

Error 1 - "Access denied as you do not have sufficient privileges. you have to invoke this utility running in elevated mode"

Resolution - You might get this error especially if you are using Windows Vista.

Go to Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories - then click right mouse button on command prompt and get the menu.

You'll get "Run As" as the second option.

Then Select the option "The following user" -> Select Administrator -> Type the password if you have one or leave it blank if not.

It will run the command prompt as the administrator.


Error 2 - "Enter current volume label for drive"

Resolution - You can find the Volume label just before the drive letter on My computer window. If it's saying "Local Disk" you can leave volume label empty. If it has anything else showed up in there you need to type exact same thin under the volume label.


Error 3 - "This drive is dirty and cannot be converted.you will need to clear the dirty bit on this drive by running CHKDSK/f or allowing AUTOCHK to run on it the next time you reboot."

Resolution - Right click on your drive and select properties -> Go to tools tab -> Under the error checking section click the "check now" button. Most of the time it will say "disk check will run on next time you boot the computer". Restart the computer. Leave the disk check run while the boot up. Let it scan and fix your drive.

How To Synchronize With Yahoo Autosync

Written by Chanaka on Sunday, July 12, 2009

Yahoo Autosync synchronizes the information you store in Yahoo Address Book, Calendar, ToDo List, and Notepad with your Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, or Palm Desktop. Yahoo Autosync compares your Yahoo data to the data in your application and makes whatever changes are necessary in either system to make sure that they both contain the same data. That way, when you add or delete something in one system and not the other, Yahoo! Autosync adds or deletes it in the system that needs updating.

Still Vista/Outlook 2007 are not currently supported, but if you have you need Windows 2000, Windows XP Pro, or Windows XP Home you are good to go with this application. Yahoo Autosync supports,

Microsoft Outlook 2000/2002/2003
Outlook Express - 5.5 (on Windows 2000 SP4), 6.0 (on Windows XP)
Palm Desktop 4.01/4.1/4.1.2/4.1.4/6.0.1

Download Yahoo Autosync from here | Mirror (Direct Download)

Once you have installed the program it will prompt you for several configuration steps. On one of those steps it will ask your yahoo ID and password.



Once you enter it it will start the synchronization.



Once everything is set it will show you a icon on the system tray and you can use it to change the settings you set when you are installing Yahoo Autosync.

Remember, Yahoo is still not providing free email accounts to use POP3 or IMAP so you won't be able to download your emails to outlook. But on the other hand Gmail provides all of their users to use POP3 and IMAP. So, this would be a handy tool to synchronize your Address Book, Calendar, ToDo List, and Notes with Yahoo and Gmail.
