I have a new computer with windows 7. I need to transfer my emails and contacts from my old computer (windows XP and outlook express) to my new computer. How do I do that?
both computers are online
It depends on what e-mail program, you will use in Win7. He was not an '' integrated '', as previous versions of Windows.
If you on Windows Live Mail, that would be the answer.
Transfer of data from Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail:
For Messages:
Copy the * ENTIRE * OE message store folder to a flash drive. (Folders.dbx must be included). Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail. Open WLMail and: file | Import | Messages | Microsoft Outlook Express 6, and the point where it was saved.
Location of OE message store:
In OE: Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
For addresses:
Open the address book in OE and file | Export | Address book (wab) and save it to the desktop. Copy it to a flash drive. Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail.
Open the Contacts list in WLMail, (go |) Contacts in the Menu bar) and the file | Import | Address book (wab) Windows and the point where you saved it.
Note: If you use a CD or a DVD instead of a flash drive, after placing on the new machine you must remove the read-only attribute in the properties before you import.
For the account settings:
In OE: Tools | Accounts, select the account and export it to the desktop. This will be an .iaf file. Copy it to the new computer and WLMail desktop: tools | Accounts and import the settings from the location you saved the.
For specific help with WLMail, ask here, not in this forum.

Cannot open JPG attachments in Windows mail and outlook express
Original title: I am running XP and windows 7. On topic dec 15 times windows '7' mail and outlook 'XP' Explorer both started allowing not parts attached JPG to come or let them out. Any help please? Dewey
Whenever I get messages with windows mail or outlook express, all attachments of JPG will not come through. I can change the security setting to allow dangerous files and they will come through. I don't know what happened to two computers at the same time. I had not changed all the parameter before it began.
Deweyh
OE can not block the attachments to be sent. You set antivirus software to analyze mail? See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
You get an error message?

Remote Desktop does not work
Hello
I have a desktop PC with windows XP (Professional) on this subject, but I can't access to the pc through the remote desktop tool. I already checked several options, but nothing seems to work. I don't even get an error message, the window just those which blinks and nothing happens...
Could you please help?
This is wat I already checked:
-"allow users to connect remotely...". ' is running
-TCP/IP listening on port 3389
-Terminal services are started
-J' tried connecting to Windows 7 and Windows XP, nothing works
-Ping the ip address of the client PC works fine
If you have any other ideas, I would be very gratefull!
Thanks to advandce
You will probably need to open port 3389 on your router so that it maps on the computer that is tuned to the connections of the DRC. It seems that you did all the other steps, but your router can prevent the connection to go anywhere. Here's a detailed guide to configure your router for DRC that can provide some guidance.

I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit installed and would like to change to Windows 7 32 bit. How can I do this?
Original title: Harold
Usually this is impossible on computers with Windows 7. In almost all cases, you need to go to the store, buy Windows 7 32-bit and use the CD to install it on your computer. This also requires the deletion of your system, you will need to reinstall all your programs and settings.

I have a HP laptop with Windows 7 (OS) with 64 bit, but very slow. Can you suggest a way to start my fast pc? Most of the time it doesn't quite work.
Hello
There are a number of possible reasons, your computer may run slowly - virus infection or malware, missing to defragment the hard drive, too many programs loading at startup - and all with different causes / solutions. So here goes:
Virus/Malware - Download, install and run these scanners (only Avast so you do not have your own antivirus installed):
Malwarebytes': http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html .
SuperAntiSpyware: http://download.cnet.com/SuperAntiSpyware-Free-Edition/3000-8022_4-10523889.html .
Avast Antivirus: http://download.cnet.com/Avast-Free-Antivirus/3000-2239_4-10019223.html .
Disk Defragging - install and run this app: http://download.cnet.com/Auslogics-Disk-Defrag/3000-2094_4-10567503.html .
Startup programs - install this application, then select start only the programs you need to run at startup, as your antivirus, firewall, but not your Disk Defragmenter (examples):
Splash Guard: http://download.cnet.com/Startup-Guard/3000-2239_4-10958203.html.
Also, your system's drivers are up-to-date? Updated the driver can also slow down your system. Go to HP.com and insert the complete your laptop model number in the search box to find your latest drivers.
Let me know if these speed up your pc.
Kind regards

I saw the problem with Windows Live Mail gel but I have the same problem with Windows Mail.
I saw the problem posted on Windows Live Mail gel but I have the same problem with Windows Mail. Sometimes, while mouse refuses I can scroll vertically with the keyboard, but not always... I changed to another wireless mouse, and this has not changed. I run Vista and can't find the update, that you reference. The reopening and closing program usually fixes it, but it's annoying. It happened for about 6 weeks or so.
Can anyone help?

I have a HP Pavilion with Windows Vista a6214x. About 3 years ago, I created my recovery with 2 discs dvd - r system
I never had problems by creating discs and my HP troubleshooting and maintenance guide says that I could use either
the dvd - r or dvd + r. But the other day, technical support of HP said use the dvd + r to create system recovery discs. If this is the case, I have to start all over again and create Sytem recovery discs on dvd + r?
Donkey #1
The DVD creation has always been a unique event. I'd be surprised if it worked.
HP can tell you how to reset the utility.
