  Original title: data transfer

  The easiest way would be to put his HARD drive in a box that connects to the computer by USB.

  This is just an example - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hard-Drive-Caddy-Case-Enclosure/dp/B003MVW2SM

  You probably have a 2.5 HDD "because I know that all laptops do.  If you need to buy an enclosure for a 2.5 drive "[not a disk 3.5" that could come from a desktop computer].

  Almost all cases derive the power to drive the HARD drive to the USB itself [rather than an external power].  If you see one that needs an external power supply, then you are probably looking to the wrong thing.

  You need to know if the HARD drive is IDE or SATA.  It depends on the age of the computer.  Your computer's manual should tell you or you can whip the HARD drive just to have a look.

  • Here is an illustration of an IDE - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Generic-Toshiba-Fujitsu-Samsung-Hitachi/dp/B0042WZZD4/ref=pd_sim_147_4?ie=UTF8&dpID=21bYEH0CONL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=125C3XKTAFS54XACCCZ8 - connection if you look at the diagrams that you will see that there are long rows of pine trees coming from the HARD disk - what is FDI.

• How can I transfer files from my old pc sony Vista for my laptop new HP 17-j003

  How can I transfer files from my old sony pc running vista for my laptop new HP 17-j003 Windows 8

  Welcome to the HP, Roodie forum.

  There is an easy way to do it using Microsoft Windows Easy Transfer :

  Transfer files and settings from another PC

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  If you do not want to transfer files using the easy transfer method, you can manually make the copy.

  1. You can connect the systems on the same network,
  2. Define the folders that contain your data transfer to 'Share' on the network
  3. Map the drive on your new Vista computer system network
  4. Copy the data you want to transfer

  On the Vista Machine:

  • Open a Windows Explorer window,
  • Right click on the folder that contains the data you want to 'share' (transfer)
  • Click Properties > share > share and follow the instructions to allow the folder to be shared on the network

  On the Machine Windows 8:

  • Windows key (opens the start screen) > anywhere type 'computer' >
  • Click on "computer" to open the "Computer" File Explorer window >
  • Click map network drive and follow the instructions to map the drive

  Don't forget: If your account name is different on the Vista computer, you will need to click on "Sign in using different credentials" and then enter the name of the account on the Vista computer AND the password for this account.

  You can do this with the upper or lower level folders folder level - as long as the folder is shared, you should have general access to the data it contains.

  There are cases where you will not end up being "owner" of the data transferred - you will have to perhaps enter and adjust the property for files / folders after they are copied to the computer of Windows 8.

• HP laptop 15 15-f113ca: transfer files from my old HP laptop on my new HP laptop

  I'm trying to transfer my files from my old HP laptop with Windows 7 on my new HP laptop with Windows 8.1. I use Windows Easy Transfer, but I have questions. My old notebook gives me a transfer type in my new key but my new laptop is not giving me an option to do so. He just asked me if I saved my files from my old PC. I am very confused and need help please!

  Here's an article about it.

  http://www.pcpro.co.UK/blogs/2014/07/11/Windows-easy-transfer-%25e2%2580%2593-not-so-easy-in-Windows-8-1

  Basically Windows 8.1 won't allow file transfer in a network. You need to get an external drive and have Windows 7 easy transfer of files do archive and then transfer those in installing Windows 8.1. There are workaround solutions in the article, but they are a bit complicated. The first proposal is to create a drive on the computer of Windows 8.1 target and then share and map it on the Windows 7 machine and then bring the files backup archives in the mapped drive on the Win 7 machine that is actually on the hard drive of the machine Win 8.1. Pretty sleek but yu can not know how to do this. Post back if you want more help.

• How to transfer files from one account to another

  How to transfer files as music from one account to another? my old account has a virus and it got currupted and I want to know how to put my old files in my new account.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile

  "Fix a corrupted user profile.

  Try this method.

  To copy files to the new user profile

  After creating the profile, you can copy the files from the existing profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

  1. Log on as a user other than the new user that you created or the user that you want to copy the files.

  2. Open Documents by clicking on the button start , and then clicking Documents.

  3. Click on the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.

     If you don't see the Tools menu, press ALT.

  4. Click the view tab, click Show files and folders, protected the clear theHide operating system files check box, and then click OK.

  5. Find the C:\Users\Old_Username folder, where C is the drive that Windows is installed, and where ancien_nom_utilisateur represents the name of the profile you want to copy the files to.

  6. Select all the files and folders in this folder, except the following files:

     • Ntuser.dat

     • Ntuser.dat.log

     • Ntuser.ini

  7. Click the Edit menu and then click on copy.

     If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

  8. Look for the C:\Users\New_Username folder, where C represents the drive Windows is installed, and New_Username is the name of the new user profile you created.

  9. Click the Edit menu and then click on paste.

     If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

  10. Sign out and then sign back in as a new user.

      If you have messages in e-mail, such as Windows Mail, you must import your e-mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile. If everything is working properly, you can delete the old profile.

  If the steps above don't fix the problem, you should contact your provider of customer support for assistance. To find more information about customer support options that apply to this computer, click the button start , click Help and Support, and then click the ask someone or expand your search link at the bottom of the Help window.
