Cloning failed, see log, nothing in log

Thread needs solution

In full True image 2013, I'm trying to clone a 750 GB drive to a 1 TB and I get the message "Cloning failed, see log," but there is nothing in the log.

Clone should be used only by advanced users who know what they are doing. It is riskier and can result in a loss of data and a failed system. Create a full disk mode backup and restore it, using the bootable Rescue Media, to the new disk, as it's far safer.

I would concur with the comments of MVP Tuttle above. The backup/restore is much safer and equally as good or better and more versatile.

Tell us more about the existing disk. Is it MBR or GPT? Is it UIEFI?

If you continue the clone process.
1. Remove the 750 and attach the 1 tb in same connectors.
2. Attach the 750 elsewhere such as an adapter or external cover.

3. Boot from the TI Recovery CD. ( Be very cautious in your selection of the correct disks.)

4. Use th TI Tools option "Add new disk" on the 1 tb disk, and delete the existing partitions left there from the botched clone.
You want the target space on the 1 tb to be unallocated and it will be after using the "Add disk" option.
Be sure to choose the correct Mbr or GPT option to match existing source type.

5. Perform the clone but use the Manual option rather than the automatic option.
This will allow you to control which partition is to receive the additional space.

6. After completion, shutdown and disconnect the 750.
7. Reboot with only the 1 tb attached.

Note: if you do not have a current full and complete backup of the 750, as a safety precaution, you SHOULD make one before attempting the clone.
