• Can I use easy transfer of the hard disk Vista for 64-bit Windows 7 computer?

  My computer laptop 32 bit vista is dead, but the hard drive is intact.  I can access it using a disk blacx disk drive hard usb.  All files seem to be good.  I gave the disc all permissions for changes, etc., so that it is not just to read only.  He sees my new laptop running windows 7 64 bit.  I found files in the record Office of the old drive so that part works.

  I tried to use easy transfer in windows 7.  Installed on the old disk of vista.  But I can't launch the vista easy transfer since this computer is dead.

  Is there a way I can transfer my emails, photos, documents and the itune files?

  Thank you.

  You can use Knoppixhttp://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (made on a different computer).  This should give you sufficient access to the Vista system 'dead' (if you can not get in any other way) backup/transfer your important data (like everything else you mentioned) to the one you use (an external hard drive, flash player,...). You will not be able to save your settings or your programs because they require the enforcement system to use easy transfer and regular functions copy and paste will do the trick. If Knoppix doesn't work, try slaving the hard drive to another computer, and then after the data you want to save it.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Can I use Easy Transfer to transfer my files and settinigs if my old Win 7 PC has a broken video card?

  The video in my old Win 7 machine is broken.  I am particularly interested in the transfer of all of the settings on my new computer Win 8.  The old machine has an external hard drive for backup purposes, but I do not know if this includes the parameters or a few files.

  Can I use easy transfer to access the internal hard drive, even if this computer has no video?  If there is no way to do it, my external backup disk has the parameters that I'm looking for and is accessible with Easy Transfer?  Other options?

  You must be able to see and access Windows Easy Transfer of two computers - they must be running and able to interact with. He has no way to initiate a transfer to a computer that has access to a second computer, without checking on the second computer you establish a transfer.  No work around, no other way to do it.  None. Your backup drives or external work not either except maybe to find a few files that can be moved.

  What I can or I do not use Easy Transfer XP to Vista (or XP to Windows 7?) to transfer files, settings, etc. from a XP Pro (SP3) to another XP Pro PC, or what I need to use the files & Settings Transfer Wizard?  I can't find a definitive answer of 100% with it in correspondence of forum.  What if I transfer via an external hard drive or a shared network folder?

  I want to spend that install all applications and information from a windows vista to a clean place, on the same hard drive, windows 7. What is the best way to do it? can I make a back up of vista on a cd and then install windows 7 and then replace all?

• How can I move my computer from Windows Vista to Windows 7? Custom or upgrade?

  Hi, I have a Dell XPS M1530 with Windows Vista 32 bit, I bouht a Windows 7 Family pack upgrade, my computer has this partition of the hard drive C: 220 GB and RECOVERY D: 10 GB.

  I want to know that if I do the install as upgrade, it will keep the same partition of hard drive?

  If that's enough, this partition of Windows 7, or should I do a large partition?

  If I copy the D: RECOVERY files, do a factory image restore in the future?

  I have some other doubts that I ask after this ones.

  Thanks for your help.

  Hi Walter,

  Dell has not yet, I bought the W7 dell family pack,

  Let me tell you what I did, I opened the D: RECOVERY and copy all the content in an external hard drive just in case where I don't know (I don't know how to do the recovery disc).

  I copy all my files on the same portable hard drive, and then I make an original image to restore.

  I update W Vista until Service Pack 2 and now I try to install the Windows 7 upgrade, but I don't know how to do and if I do which is how I had to do.

  I have the reistalation W Vista 32 bit of dell DVD.

  Let me ask you something when you said: ' make an upgrade should keep the same data programs and settings, etc ", do you mean that when I do the upgrade of the partition of the factory will be the same after the upgrade?

  copy the files from an external hard drive recovery and create a disc from there will not allow you to use them to reinstall vista

  Ask how to do recovery dell discs

  read my 1 answer

  and make the windows 7 upgrade was referring to the installation of windows 7 as an upgrade to vista on partition of 220gbs

  for any other installatiion windows 7 questions to ask in the Sub forum to install windows 7

• I have to reformat I can use transfer from windows 7 64 bit for windows vista 64-bit

  I have a few problems and have to reformat my desktop computer. I can't save anything, but I have most of my files and folders transferred to my new laptop. My question is, the Office has a VISTA 64 bit OS and the laptop has a 64-bit WINDOWS 7 OS. Can I use easy transfer to trans iron files & back files of the laptop on the desk.

  Thank you

  PETER

  Hi Peter,.

  Windows Easy Transfer generally works from a lower to a higher version of Windows or the same version of windows.

  You can try to download the Windows Vista 64 - bit easy transfer and try to transfer the files and folders and check if it works. If it does not from Windows 7 to Vista, then you must manually copy the files and folders using USB drives.

  For more information, you can consult the following articles.

• Can I use easy to get my old C: files/settings transfer?

  My desktop XPSP3 is dead, but the hard drive is always good and is mounted in a USB enclosure attached to a new office with Windows 7 Home Premium. Can I use Easy Transfer on the new desktop to get my files and settings from the old drive XPSP3?  If so, how?  Thank you.

  No, you will need to copy them manually.

  You may need to take possession of some of the folders:

  Windows 7 take ownership & grant permissions to access files & folder

  To copy and paste a file:

  1. Open the location that contains the file you want to copy.

  2. Right click on the file and then click on copy.

  3. Open the location where you want to store the copy.

  4. Right-click on an empty space within the location and then click on paste. The copy of the original file is now stored in the new location.

  For more information about copying multiple files, see select multiple files or folders.

  Tips

  • Another way to copy and paste files is to use the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl + C (copy) and Ctrl + V (paste).

  • You can also press on and hold the right mouse button and drag the file to the new location. When you release the mouse button, click on copy here.

  • You can copy and paste a folder in the same way as you would a file. When you do this, all the files in the folder are also copied.
