files from xp to windows 7

I stored my documents on my XP external hard drive. Now I have a new windows 7, but the transfer of documents has transformed some i.e. emails in adobe & cannot be opened.   Looking at my external hard drive on windows 7 they are all transformed into Adobe & I need a XP which now, I don't have a way I can do my 7 do this read

You can install Adobe Reader on your Windows 7 computer, so you can open them.  Go to http://get.adobe.com/reader to get.

If your files are not really supposed to open with Adobe, you right click and choose "Open with" and choose the right program used to read the file.

  • Transfer files FROM Mac TO Windows?

    I need to be able to back up and move files from my Mac to my machine to Windows platform. My Seagate external drive is no longer recognizable on the Mac, and it was never recognized by the Windows machine.

    What is the best and most effective way to transfer all my files?

    Before the upgrade on my Mac for 10.11.4 Dropbox worked and had files it contains. There are more files and I'm scared to use it as a backup or transfer.

    If I switch from Windows to Mac, I expect to find answers and suggestions to the Mac community.

  • transfer of files from vista to windows 8.1

    I see I can't use Windows Easy Transfer.  I backed up everything on the external hard drive.  Y at - it sort of just download everything from the external hard drive (using "restore", for example?) without crushing everything in the same programs in windows 8.1?  Or do I have to copy everything whole again, one by one?

    Hello

    How to copy your data files from Vista to 8.1

    Vista machine:

    Open the Windows Explorer in Vista (or Documents, music, images, etc.) > have a connected external hard drive or USB key > go to the files you want to transfer > right click on the files you want to transfer > hover the mouse on "send to" > select the external hard drive.

    8 machine:

    Plug USB > open the file Explorer > copy files anywhere in the correct folders.

    _________________________________________________

    If it were a full Vista backup that you did, you can not get a particular file of this full backup.

    It should be mounted, which is complicated.

    See you soon.

    To connect two computers with a cable, not a router, it must be a crossover cable.

  • How to add audio files from iTunes to Windows Media Player library

  • ANIMATE EDGE: Files from MAC to WINDOWS

    How to open the source files models animate Web sites created using edge in windows? since they are probably mac!

    When I unzip the files, it says that the file already exists for some files, like images etc. amd late charge only two files named

    __MACOSX and

    978-1-4302-4350_SourceCode_ch01

    When I try to load it directly from lively edge, nothing appears, for the zipped folder as well as the unzipeed one.

    Thank you

    Download page link for the source of the example site:

    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/edge-animate/articles/showcase-sample-files.html

    As test, you can download this simple project file, unzip it and double-click the .one file? I would like to know what is happening?

    You are using the latest version of edge animate? What does say on the splash screen when you first launch it?

    Another way to open a project should simply open edge animate; go to file > open and navigate to the source .html or .a file to open it. Have you tried this method with any of the files you noted above?

    Another scenerio may be related to Windows user accounts? You are an authority for the two machines you mention? You don't have administrator rights to run the associative files. One solution is to right-click on a project .an file, and in the list of context menu, there should be an option to run as administrator? Try this option.

    Last resort - uninstall computer and reinstall from your cloud of Creative Adobe free.

    Hope some of these help

  • How can I find tools to backup files from your Dead Windows computer?

    Hello

    I have a dv6-1030us equipped for Vista 64-bit.  It is hanging in the Windows startup.  I press F11 during BIOS screen to get the HP Recovery screen.  I tried restoring the system running.  It is said that the system has been restored to its previous state, but when I restart the computer, I get the same error.

    I'm going to use my Vista recovery disc I created when I got the computer, but I can't find them.  Is it possible to create the disc in the HP Recovery Manager that I access by pressing F11 at startup from the BIOS?

    Thank you

    Yes, that would be my suggestion - create your set of recovery DVDs and then use them to reinstall the operating system that this process will also recreate the recovery Partition D.

  • Convert several Word files from the Explorer windows for PDFs with bookmarks

    Hello

    I used to be able to select several Word documents in Windows Explorer and convert them into multiple individual PDFs with bookmarks (using XP, Office 2007, Acrobat 8 Standard). Lately, my computer has been upgraded to Windows 7 with Office 2010 and Acrobat X Standard. The selection of multiple files function exist; However, I encounter following issues:


    Thank you

    c3000ca


    1. the converted files without all the bookmarks.
    2. save the file screen pop up twice. First asked me to save to where it begins to convert, after PDF conversion screen has finished, it will ask me again to save the file in the root directory, i.e. when the files are really saving.
    3. for each open Doc file, Word 2010 pop up a message will indicate that the normal template file has been changed and ask me if I want to store the update.


    I tried searching everywhere on the web and seems we do not encounter the problem. Did someone encouerting similar problem?  Is there a way to solve the problem?

    Finally, I reinstalled Office 2010 and Acrobat X Standard.  Everything went very well.  No found bugs.  It must be a problem during the installation of the program. Detective Conan.
