    Please provide details: you are not trying to change the file type by changing just the extension, are you?  That won't work of course,

    Either you try to run some type of script?

    To change a file type, you have TO open the file in Photoshop and do save as.  That can be automated.

  • How to copy data from one hard drive to another after the upgrade?

    I have a HP e9220y, and I recently bought a new hard drive for it. There is nothing wrong with the former, but this one has a 64 MB cache and 7200 RPM so I hope it will be a little faster. I installed it and it works fine, but I want to copy all data from the old disk to the new so I can start everything off the faster hard drive and I seem to have a bit of doing wrong. I can't just copy and paste because of the Windows system files that are used. And last night when I set up Windows backup, and went to bed, when I thought it that Windows has recovered from a stop unexpected, rebooted, and only 2 GB of data saved obtained.

    What is the best way to move all the data from the old drive to the new drive, make it the default C: drive and move partitions system and factory_image as well? Thank you!

    (1) If your old drive and the new drive is Seagate or Western Digital, then free House with their cloning software.

    (2) before starting the clone process, I found best to perform a disk cleanup and defragmentation.

    Cloning software to copy the two partitions. Example:

    Old drive 250 GB formatted to 232 C: created 220 and 12 GB D:

    New 1000GO drive formatted to 931 GB created 919 GB C: and D: to 12 GB

    The "Seagate disc Wizard" cloning software will let create you a clone automatic or manual partition resizing.

    The two modes to offer an overview of the actions before commit you. The manual on this page of Seagate (PDF) is 68 pages.

    After the cloning process he complete, all you have to do is swap on the disks. Besure to connect your new disc on the original motherboard SATA port.

  • How can I copy files from project Waveburner to another internal drive?

    How can I copy files from project Waveburner to another internal drive without losing the connection to the files audio orig.?

    Thank you for your time,

    Since no one answered my call, I sat and researched and studied WaveBurner behavior and I can myself answer my question and solve. Since there were a lot of people asking similar questions on WaveBurner files I will post what I learned.

    Whenever you drop your audio files in the list window to make your WaveBurner CD copy not copy your audio files, but relies on the original audio file, where they are located. So whenever you move the files orig. and you open WaveBurner, it can't find those and displays an error window to suggest it will search for the missing file or if you know where he is now lets you find manually. WaveBurner usually place the .wb3 project file that contains everything including your home folder.

    For this reason, I reserve now an audio file WaveBurner also folder in my home folder. In order to save themselves from WaveBurner cannot find the audio file, all audio files that I do, I put in my folder of audio files WaveBurner first, then copy them in WaveBurner from there.

    When I need to use a bigger hard drive I copy .wb3-WaveBurner projects based, but also my

    Sound folder WaveBurner for the home folder on the new hard drive.

    WaveBurner is now all audio files without problem.

    I hope that this will be a unique problem to someone else. Happy WaveBurning.

    Select the drive in the Finder and select the get info in the file menu.

    If it is the Windows NT file system format, install software such as Paragon NTFS on the computer or reformat the hard disk.

    If it's in a different format, choose Utilities in the Finder Go menu, open disk utility and use the repair disk function or first aid in this regard.

    "Deleting" a file does not actually delete it marks just the space
    also available to be used. There are third-party programs that can
    sometimes recover deleted files. The problem is that the space used by
    the file is likely to be replaced very quickly, and it makes
    the unrecoverable file.

    So your chances of successfully recover this file are decent if you
    Try it again immediately after the deletion of it and go quickly
    downhill from there. If you have used the computer since then (for
    example to write this question and read this answer), your chances may
    be very poor now.

    But if the file is large enough, it's still worth a try. Stop
    using the computer in question immediately, if you have not done
    already. Download an undelete program (and here's one:)
    http://www3.TELUS.NET/mikebike/restoration.html but there are several
    others to choose from; Do a search) on a friend's computer (do not
    it on yours because that would overwrite the files you want
    Undelete) and bring it to you on a CD or thumb drive to try.

    If that fails, your only recourse is to bring or send the disc
    a company of professional file recovery. This kind of service is very
    expensive and may or may not work in your case.

  • The Vixia HF G30 allows a direct copy of video files from an SD card on an external USB hard disk

    I am considering buying a G30 and need to know if she will allow a direct copy of video files from an SD card on an external USB hard drive.  The manual is not clear on this point.

    Not to my knowledge (I own a G30 HF).  There is no present on-the-go USB functionality.

    Personally, I do not miss such a feature, because it causes all kinds of compatibility problems, especially with regard to the power of external USB hard drives. In addition, without any file manager, backup of your video files into a nightmare. I must admit that I am rather Cannon after not on an often incomplete function development budget and have it spent instead on the main features of the camera, such as optics. Of course, this is just my very subjective opinion, and other HF G30 clients may have different opinions on this.

    In order to back up my video files on the fly and without having to carry a laptop, I recently bought a made by Hanso Hyperdrive colorspace UDMA2 and installed a 1 TB in her drive. When on the ground and after having taken my shots I just pop in my inside SD cards and the device of copies on the video files to 17Mbyte per second. At home, I plug in the UDMA2 in my Linux video workstation using a regular USB cable and pull the video from the mobile disk. The UDMA2 also did incremental backups and comes with a basic file manager. While it has a color screen, it can't play back video. It is a video and photo backup dedicated device, nothing more. But it does a decent job on exactly that.

  • Cannot copy files from HD to CD by using wizard.

    Original title: not accessible - incorrect function.

    Cannot copy files from HD to CD by using wizard. Have been able to do for a long time. Without warning is no longer possible.

    Hello

    The format of the files you want to copy basically described what kind of files they are. Word documents, of .mpg, jpeg, etc.
    However, it seems that the problem is with the drive itself, not individual files.

    You happen to have any installed Roxio program? Specifically, Roxio Easy CD Creator?
    If so, you should remove this program, restart the computer and try again.
    I hope this helps!
  • When I try to copy the files from Windows Mail on Vista on a USB key I get the message "you are about to copy this file without its properties

    I move the file from my old PC which took place with Vista on a new computer running with Win 10 where I have Windows Live Mail is installed.  When I try to copy the files from Windows Mail on Vista on a USB key I get the message "you are about to copy this file without its properties".  After studying this issue on the forums, a proposed solution was to reformat the drive in NTFS format, I did.  This does not solve the problem.  Any suggestions?  Would it be OK in this case to ignore the message and copy the file without its properties?

    Well data files/user of vista should work. Yes a NTFS format is good, go to run, or cmd, type:

    diskmgmt.msc in msc, R.click on the material, delete the partition, create one, format. Use the default settings,

    Once thru, L.click the disk, go to actions, all, select 'enable '.

  • Copy files from specific date ranges in a Batch file

    I'm trying to copy files from a folder with many subfolders to another drive using a batch file. I want to copy the files in the date ranges specific (e.g. 01/01/2016 to 03/31/2016).

    I use this with Xcopy command:

    xcopy "C:\Users\John\Pictures\*.*" F:\BACKUP\Pictures/s/h/i/y

    It works, but I want to send groups of files by date for the different destination folders. I'm having a problem by specifying a date range in the command line.

    Is this possible with xcopy or robocopy? Does anyone know how to list the date rang in the command?

    Thankss in advance,

  • How to recover files from my hard drive?

    I tried to upgrade windows 8.1 to 10, but something was wrong and I can't boot my laptop more. I have Samsung i5. Samsung has it s own recovery program, but impossible to locate all personal files from my hard drive (C:\user) s.

    The problem is - my accont is protected by word (with the microsoft account) how can I recover my files? They are also protected by Word? Can I access simply by making the copy of disc or I´ll to decrypt?

    It depends on if you have encryption enabled or not.  If you have the encryption on, then you will need a copy of your encryption key or the files will be locked forever.

    If you encrypt your files, you can recover the files simply by putting the hard drive on another computer and navigate on it as if it were a USB key (it's just a reader), you can even appropriating and re - set the permissions on the folder.

    Another option is to start by using any Windows install CD or USB.  At the prompt to install, skip it and press SHIFT + F10 to open a command prompt.  So to reach this player (the letter can be no C: in this mode) and use the command copy to copy the file to another disk or USB stick.
