    I did a uprade from my PC from windows XP to windows 7. However, before doing so, I used windows easy transfer to copy my files to a later transfer.

  • Select some easy transfer files

    Well, I lost a bit of data when I updated from XP to Vista, mainly because of Windows Easy Transfer, and I was wondering if there was a way I could choose some files to take of it and where to save them (namely, program files, specifically a few files in program files).

    Whenever I try to deselect the files to restore, it won't let me, and I see no option if I want to save the files in a separate location.

    Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Also, if I were to use one, a third-party program to me would be against microsoft TOS?

    Programs need to be reinstalled.

  • File permissions denied

    I don't have permission to open the My Documents folder. When I request information on the record, it is said, you have Custom Access. When I tried to fix the permissions by the owner with abilities of reading and writing, I became locked with no way to lock of permissions.

    Anyone have an idea on how to access my documents and find my administrator status?

    Please, back up all data before proceeding.

    This procedure will unlock all your user (not system files) files and reset their ownership, permissions and default access controls. If you have voluntarily set special values for these attributes on any of your files, they will be be restored. In this case, either stop there, or be ready to recreate the settings if necessary. Do that after checking these settings that did not cause the problem. If none of that is meaningful to you, you need not worry about this, but do not follow the instructions below.

    Step 1

    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to step 2.

    Triple-click anywhere in the next line to this page to select this option:

    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nosappnd,noschg,nosunlnk,nouappnd,nouchg {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-

    Copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination.

    Launch the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Paste in the Terminal window by pressing Command + V. I tried these instructions only with the Safari browser. If you use another browser, you may need to press the return key after pasting.

    You will be asked your password of connection that are not displayed when you type. Type carefully, and then press return. You can get a warning to be careful. If you do not have a password, you will need to configure one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your user name "is not in the sudoers file", then you have not logged as an administrator.

    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on the number of files you have. Wait for a new line ending with a dollar sign ($) to appear, and then quit Terminal.

    Step 2 (optional)

    Take this step only if you have trouble with the phase 1, if you prefer not to consider, or if this does not resolve the problem.

    Start in recovery mode. You may be prompted to select a language, then the OS X Utilities appears.

    If you use FileVault 2, select disk utility, then select the icon for the volume FileVault startup ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name.) It will be nested under another icon of the disc. Select open in the file menu and enter your login password when you are prompted. Then quit disk utility must be returned to the main screen.

    Select

    Utilities ▹ Terminal

    in the menu bar. It will open a Terminal window. In this window, type this:

    resetp

    Press the tab key. The partial order you entered will automatically end this:

    resetpassword

    Press return. Opens a window to reset the password. You do not need to reset a password.

    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name) if not already selected.

    Select your username in the menu option allows you to select the account if not already selected.

    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the reset button.

    Select

    ▹ Restart 

    in the menu bar.

  • ASA - same-security-traffic allowed inter VS permit/deny access-list interface

    Hi people,

    I wonder if I use the same-security-traffic permits inter-interface order to ASA and I have 2 separate interfaces with the same level of security and ACL with a few rules explicit allow , if not covered by these statements to allow traffic will be blocked by implicit deny at the end of the ACL or am I completely wrong in my thinking?

    That is right.

    But then if you have an interface with an ACL and another interface without an ACL and you want to pass traffic between the two interfaces, then the interface without an ACL will rely on the level of security while configured with the ACL interface will rely on configured ACL entries.

  • Using Easy Transfer of Win 7 PC to another Win 7 PC with 1 single monitor

    II want to transfer files and settings on a PC running Windows 7 SP1 to another PC running the same operating system. I have only 1 monitor. How to make the transfer with 1 single monitor?  If I can do it with 1 monitor PC must be connected to the monitor? Or what I have to go back between the 2 PC's? Thank you. (Stupid question, I guess, but I need some advice).

    Hi Harry,.

    Yes, you can use a system image to transfer the data.

    However, Windows Easy Transfer is a software assistant to transfer files and settings from one computer running Windows to another. You can transfer data from one user or multiple user accounts profile. Easy transfer Windows application will help you choose what to move to your new computer, you can set the transfer method to use and then performs the transfer. Once the transfer is done, Windows easy transfer reports displays what was transferred and provides a list of programs that you can install on your new computer, as well as links to other programs you can download.

    With Windows Easy Transfer, files and settings can be transferred using a network, a flashdrive USB (UFD), or the easy transfer cable. However, you cannot use a regular universal serial (USB) bus cable to transfer files and settings using Windows Easy Transfer. You can buy a cable to transfer files on the Web, the manufacturer of your computer, or at an electronics store.

    You can't use Windows Easy Transfer to move program files. Windows Easy Transfer can move only data and program settings. You must then install your software on the new computer.

  • Transfer files to the computer after the installation of Windows 7

    I recently installed Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit) to replace Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit). I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and no problems were detected. Before I installed Windows 7 I downloaded Windows Easy Transfer and he ran with the file to be saved on an external hard drive. I managed to install Windows 7 but I can't transfer the Windows easy transfer file to Windows 7. I get a message saying there is not enough free space on the disk to do the transfer. I ran disk cleanup, and I still get the same message. I have 268 GB of 287 GB free space on the C: drive. The Windows Easy Transfer file (currently on the external hard drive) is only 113.5 GB. I don't know why I get the message that there is not enough free disk space when there is obviously.

    Before you read this response to my question, I discovered that, in the file transfer Windows on the external drive under 'Advanced Options' disks 'map', there was a drive "C" and "D" of road listed. As soon as I changed both to the 'C' drive, the transfer went without a hitch. Thank you very much for your help, your suggestions are very helpful. I have a partition "C" and "D" on my computer, how do I know if Windows 7 has been loaded on the 'C' partition or partition "D"? Thank you

  • Having problems with Windows Easy Transfer

    I just bought a Dell laptop with W7 installed. It's all very well except the transfer of files/settings. I started the easy transfer and selected the option of wireless transfer. My old machine will connect to our router via a map of 54 Mbps and the new machine will connect to the router via a 24 GHz 802.11n built in the card. When all the files have been selected, they added up to 5.2 GB. I started the transfer, and it worked for 36 hours. For the last 6 hours, transfer screen said 1 minute left. Since the said warning do not use the computer that I don't know what to do. Is it possible to see if Easy Transfer is hung up? If it is blocked, how can it be restarted?

    Tahnks for your help!

    Wireless? Windows Easy Transfer is not something you do on a wireless connection. Use a wired connection, or create a .mig (Windows Easy Transfer file), save on an external hard drive or locally and transfer it to a new computer.

    install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD on the old computer (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) or download it at (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer).  run it and create a WET (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can have it stored there.

    You should be able to easily restore these files if they were created using Windows Easy Transfer in Windows Vista. Simply click Start, type: easy Windows press enter on your keyboard
     
    Follow the wizard screen, select the type of support that you restore your files, select the computer that you restore, navigate to its location, select the file .mig Windows Easy Transfer and click on restore.

    The Windows Easy Transfer Wizard, then analyze the content of the files and ask you what you want to restore if multiple accounts have also been supported.

    Once you have confirmed that you want to restore, click transfer to begin the restore process, after it is complete, the wizard will propose programs, you need to reinstall, and a list of what it has been transferred, you will be asked to restart your system to apply permanently changes.
