How can I get Windows 7 to play the old Readme.wri files?
I have several old data drives that contain important documents, but they are in format Readme.WRI. I checked the file associations in Windows 7, so that I can associate the file type with a program, but Readme.WRI is not on the list of file extensions.
Is there a way to open these files in Windows 7? Is there a low-cost program (shareware)? to download to be able to view these files? Most of the research "Readme.WRI" I did take me to advertise for "scanning" products... not file readers.
Thanks for any help that anyone can give.

Where are the files stored WindowsLiveMail? Under what article directory. I have "tons" of e-mail messages stored on the old disk and need to move them to the new drive faster. How can I do?
The location of the store folder, which contains all the messages, calendars and the account settings, is configurable by the user. The default location is
C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live MailIf the installer of WLMail is a record storage in the default location, it normally acknowledge and take into use if. The only user that would be required should reinstate saved passwords. If this is to succeed, the old and new installations of WLMail normally must be exactly the same construction. The storage location must be in place in the default location on the new drive before installing WLMail. Also, the current user must be the owner of the record store to its new location.
If the old drive is installed on the same computer as the new facility in WLMail, you can point the Import Wizard to import messages to the old folder of the store. They will find under storage folders into imported folders.

How can I get Windows Vista to stop the shortening of long file names?
I copy the files with long names in .zip files. Whenever I drag a drag the file to .zip (also with a long name) file, it renames the .zip file in a much shorter name. This only happens on my computer, my wife can perform the same task that I'm with her computer, and it won't rename the file name. We're both under Windows Vista. Is there a way I can get to rename the files? Thank you!

How can I get Windows XP without knowing the password?
I received a laptop from a deceased parent and it has two user accounts and I do not know the password either. No one in the family knows them either. I tried CTRL DEL twice to try to get to the construction in the account administrator, but they may have set up a password for it too. Is there anyway to get into windows on this laptop.
I have a bit of computer knowledge, but very little. I've read about programs to unlock a password but it seems that I should be able to get into Windows to use. Please help if you can!
Thank you

Hello
I ache to get an animation playing once on a mouse pointer (mouse over / mouse enter) and not play again if the mouse is flown again. If I move the mouse over the animation plays perfectly, however when I move the mouse again it will restart the animation.
You can try putting a trigger at the end of the animation timeline that mask the animation and shows an image of the poster. Or use an invisible box on top of the animation that controls your mouse over the event. Then have a trigger at the end of your animation that hides this dialog.

How can I get video mp4 for playing the edge animate .oam on page Muse?
Ok. I'm pulling my hair out here...
I am just placing a file of .oam edge animate with video on a page of Muse. The .oam contains a simple icon (that grows and shrinks slightly in a loop to draw attention) that, when clicked (event "on click") made a video .mp4 appear and start playing. Then the video disappears at the end, leaving the new icon (no controls - it just plays and goes when it's done).
The animation/video playback works fine in edge animate and animate preview of edge browser but when I place the .oam file in my page of muse, the video does not play. I tried the same file without the event 'on click' where the video plays essentially on its own after a second aboard animate and edge Preview in the browser and even once, it does not read in Muse.
It's embarrassing and I don't know how to solve the problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions? My .oam file contains a .mp4 file a.webm file, although this will be part of a stand-alone Museum Kiosk and therefore does not need compatibility .webm.
I'd appreciate any suggestions really.
I thank very you much in advance!
Mason
HA!
Doggone it! Somehow, I knew that it would work very well for someone else. This seems to be how these things go, isn't it? Exciting video, huh?
In any case, I use Safari. I tried the image displayed in preview in the preview of the Muse and then tried in "Preview in browser" and it did not work for me. I just downloaded Chrome and will try to image previewed in there. Perhaps that will work.
Holy crap! I literally just released the entire HTML for the site of the Muse and opened it in Safari from there and it worked like a champ! A problem with the perhaps "Preview in browser"?
Well, color me happy! Perplexed but happy!

I just got my new iPhone 6s, until now, I had the iPhone 6.
as I use the Apple Watch I like to keep my health data but do not want to restore the entire backup to have a "fresh" iPhone
Any idea?
Thank you
The only way to restore the health data is to backup the old phone and restore it on the new phone. You must use iTunes backup with active encryption, or backup to iCloud.

How can I get Windows 7 to recognize my NAS drive as a file server?
I just bought a new desktop computer with Windows 7 (the first time I used it at home). I have three drives NAS; one of them is an of Maxtor Central axis. I use the Central axis as a file server, it has Word, Excel and other Office files in addition to my music library and a handful of videos. Whenever I try to open a document, say Word, Windows 7 does not show the Maxtor under my network. It shows one of the other drives NAS (Iomega). When I right click on the network, click "Open in a new window", I see the Maxtor drive. However when I click on it, Windows will open Windows Media Player. I see only three songs, which aren't even mine; I think they were samples placed on the disk by an application.
Other machines on my network (a computer laptop PC and Mac) continue to be able to see the of Maxtor Central axis.
I can open my documents giving the fully qualified network path "\\Mca-054e16\Public", but it's a pain. I can't map a drive letter for the drive; I just get the small circle who constantly.
How can I get Windows 7 see Maxtor Central Axis like a file server and not only a media server?
Thanks in advance for any help that anyone may be able to provide,
Nolan
Hello
· How do you set up the network?
· Have you used a Maxtor software?
The Seagate knowledge base indicates that his NASwas released before the release of Windows 7. Therefore, it has not been tested in this environment and is not supported by Technical Support. http://Seagate.custkb.com/Seagate/CRM/selfservice/search.jsp?docid=211931&NewLang=en&HiLite=Maxtor+central+axis+Windows7#note
