  • How can I get Photoshop CS5 to recognize the raw files from my Nikon D750. I have crossed on online help, but have not found an action that works

    How can I get Photoshop CS5 to recognize Raw of Nikon D750 files. I went through online help, but have not been able to solve the problem. Graham Atkins

    Hi fathered,

    Photoshop CS5 to read files from Nikon D750 to atleast Camera Raw 8.7 or higher.

    However, I believe that you would not be able to update Camera Raw, so you can download and install the DNG Converter and convert the files to DNG.

    Kind regards.

  • I just installed a new drive faster. How can I get windows live mail from the old drive to the new drive

    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 Mail

    If 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 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.

  • How do you get windows 8 to enable the flash drive be the bootable media?

    I have a new (purchased on 11/02/13) computer Toshiba laptop I want to boot from a flash drive with tor/tails on it, but the computer laptop/windows 8, will not allow the flash player to start everything first, or never.

    The BIOS has changed to make the USB boot first, but windows 8 support, without going through the flash player.

    How can this be repaired?  What happens here?

    Thank you

    Michael

    If it is not a setting in BIOS (or the need for a new flash BIOS), I don't really know. It used to be managed by the BIOS, but since the creation of Win8, who seems to have changed.

    Mixture of Photoshop mobile app. How can you save an edited photo in the same file as the original?

    Hey there Mopi2!

    Currently, there is no way to save your new image instead of the original image. For now, you need to manually delete the original. It is however a great request! Please share with the team by typing "give us feedback" in the app menu (tap on the app icon in the upper left corner of the screen while inside the app).

    Let me know if that helps!

  • 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

  • How to get windows 7 to recognize the drives after the letter Y or Z

    I had a very bad habit to make 3-4 all new hard drive partition that I buy and now because of this HDD my registration including a dvd and virtual dvd and external hard drive went up to the letter X, now I have another 1 TB hd I would like to add, but the problem I've seen , it's that windows dosent take more drives after Y or Z? How can I get windows 7 beyond the letter Y or Z as I can't afford to withdraw a single hard drive all have important data on them. More I need some free readers for as and when I plug my pen drives or by phone (which takes 2 drive letters)...

    Rrrr, you cannot

    However, you can use your HARD drive as an NTFS folder. As far as I know, these folders only on C:\ appeare.

    So if you have 3 partition, you will have something like this: C:\Part1, C:\Part2, C:\Part3.

    Then, right click on computer-> manage-> disk management.

    Here, you can select your HARD drive, create new partitions and use them as NTFS folders.

    Then, right click a partition, change drive letter, and click Add or change and you will be able to ride like a NTFS folder.

    --

    Or, Yes, you can merge 2 partitions.

    Steve

    Hi Steve

    You cannot map the drive letter for the vmdk directly, but you can map the drive Win on a specific vm using the SCSI number

    An easy way to map the vmdk with disks of Windows is:

    On the virtual machine 'change settings', note in down all the vDisks SCSI address example (disc 1 = SCSI (0:1), 2 HDD = SCSI (2:4)))

    If you go to Windows disk management and right click the individual disks and select Properties, you will see that target and LUN ID discs

    where for 1 HDD = SCSI (0:1), 0 is target ID and LUN 1 ID and 2 HDD = SCSI (2:4), 2 is target ID and LUN 4 ID

    You map just for numbers of hard disk drive letters

    Please allow points to useful/correct answers
