  • How to open an old file of data?

    I have an old of MYOB (Business Basics v 1.1) which operated on windows 98. I backed up all the data on a USB key. We have a new laptop using windows 7 OS. We have installed the new software of MYOB. But we cannot open our USB data files because they come from the old software. Is there a way we can open these old data files?

    For such a specialized question, I would have thought that you would be more likely to find a solution with the help of MYOB than here.

  • How to view the old libraries of iPhoto on an external drive without importing it?

    In iPhoto, I used to keep all my libraries of photos on an external drive to save space (a different library for each year).  I would just choose which library I wanted access at the launch of iPhoto and it would launch from the external hard drive.  In the new photo app, I can't understand how to display these old libraries without actually importing them I won't do for space-saving reasons.  Anyone know how I can do to check/change photos from an external hard drive via the Photos app?  Thank you very much!

    Pictures of launch with down option, click library and choose them.

  • How to open the old emails in Windows 8

    How can I open old emails in Windows 8?

    Default e-mail program included retains the last 14 days of mail.  However, you can change it through the settings of the application.  With the app open, pull the charm bar and click settings.  Choose "Accounts" and select the account in question (if you have several).  There is a menu drop down marked "download mail of" choice "in the last 3 days", "last 7 days", "2 weeks", "Last month" and "Any Time".  The choice of the latter will download all the mail on your server and keep a local cache of it.  I use this choice, but it depends on how large your message store is and how much space you have on your machine.

    Note also that if you use some providers of messaging services the search function in the mail app will search not only what is cached locally, but also the entire file on the server.  While if you keep just 2 weeks of worth of e-mail cached locally, you can always seek (and read) old messages.

  • How to remove the old timemachine/backup files from an old hard drive

    I did not use a hard disk for time machine for several years (replaced by the 3 TB model). I had a few back normal of the files on it and everything just deleted the folder backups.backupdb. All but 7 mb removed. I then filled the hard disk with the other files. Now, I want to remove these 7 MB.

    I said my mac to remove all the locked files, no luck. I changed the permissions of the main folder, open and said the mac to do the same to inclusive all files, no luck. I did the same thing to each folder in the folder backupdb, no luck.

    I even dug deep into the HD/system/library/coreservices records and released the boot.efl and bootx files and no removal of chance.

    A secure boot has not helped.

    Reformatting the drive is not an option that I have thousands of files on that drive.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

  • How to move a Time Capsule backup to a new hard drive

    I've been running Time Capsule on an external FireWire drive Yosemite 10.10.5 running on a MacPro to 2012. It will allow more to perform backups and disk utility fails to remove the disc. When I run the disk repair, either via the recovery disc or a USB flash drive, they are not able to repair the disc and gives me the message: "exit code is 8." The suggestion is to backup the drive and then wipe and restore. I tend to remove the hard drive because it is the second time this has happened; the first time I erased it and started the Time Machine backup everywhere with the same external drive.

    However, I am about to upgrade to El Capitan and certainly want the option to return to Yosemite if necessary.

    What should I do to transfer the contents of the hard drive damaged to a new drive and always make sure that my computer recognizes it as a backup Time Machine valid? I can clone it right on a new external hard drive?

    Thank you!

    Yes, it clones if the drive is still ok.

    On a MacPro, you have plenty of space for a real drive... or you can buy a USB key and just to make the clone.

    However, my recommendation is to download and run Carbon Copy Cloner. You get free trial use 1 month anyway. Clone startup current Mac to a USB drive or internal hard drive. And make sure it is bootable... that makes it simple to restore a computer to your old operating system running. TM cannot produce a clone bootable... nor can utility that can clone a drive but not to create a boot disk drive.

    Just keep the current firewire drive as that is the TM backup... I really doubt that you will get no improvement it cloning.

  • Help! How to open the PSE 7 without opening catalog

    Tried to migrate from PSE 7 to 9 of PSE. After conversion the catalogue that the browser seems to open normally, but breaks down in seconds. Called the helpline to Adobe, they come to the conclusion that the catalog is corrupt, but the catalog worked normally in PSE 7. Since the catalog has been transformed, it cannot open more in PSE 7. I was happy to have made a return to the top, but if I want to restore back to the top, PSE 7 automatically opens the catalog - convert / corrupted - old and... crashes. Anyone within Adobe thought to the possibility of opening the software without automatically, open the catalog. Seems particularly useful in such circumstances.

    I tried to open and at the same time helding ALT + SHIFT + CTRL keys but that does not work.

    First of all I d to migrate with my old catalog of PES 9, but at least I would still be able to open my old catalog (backup version) in PSE 7.

    Thanks in advance

    Paul

    OS: Windows Vista

    OK, you renamed the catalog of BU, which makes no difference.  Have you looked at the folder, in which the converted catalog would be created?  It is in C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs. What records are listed here (catalog My, My Catalog1 and such)?   Or something strange?  Perhaps you could rename/delete one or all the people and try to restart the conversion.

    How to open or convert the .avi file on the old mac running OS.10.6.8.  We tried downloading several conversion programs as well as programs that run .avi, but everyone's message could not be opened on the mac or require a fee.  Anyone able to fix it.  We have great audio video file we need to convert.

    Try to use MPEG Streamclip; You can be told to install Perian or another component, or who does not open the AVI file. AVI is a container, not a format; no single component or codec will open all reviews, and some cannot be played or converted in Mac OS X.

  • In windows movie maker, I'm trying to open an old project. It opens, but there is no video clips - only x or empty clips. How can I get the original film clips show?

    In windows movie maker, I'm trying to open an old project. It opens, but there is no video clips - only x or empty clips. How can I get the original film clips show?

    I did a movie and released a dvd. Then, I moved my files from movie on an external hard drive to store files and free up space on my computer. So I went back to try a pull up the project and got every X / white clips. So now, I rebooted my computer with the video files I removed on the external hard drive and it still shows empty clips.
    Help.

    The red Xs indicate that Movie Maker cannot find the original source files.
    If the files are still available... just right click on the red Xs and go to the
    current location of the files source and you may be able to restore the
    path.
