Normally stored in Users\yourname\then in different folders.
 
You can search for each media type extension, and then copy the files found in the external media (you must make sure that display the file extensions for known file types is turned).

    Hi Wally, the hard disk OS X and all of your files. Get a case for your reader, and it backs up. Try OWC

    Always keep your Mac backed up on an external drive with Time Machine or utility of cloning like SuperDuperor double clone.

    Try eBay for the adapter.

    Thanks for getting back to me Mick!

    I did a restore to 5/10 when I had no problem, but the problem persisted.

    I'll have to try Norton support. This may be something they did.

    In the meantime, I managed to change the names of files by connecting to the PC with the account of my wife who as co-owner had equal rights and the sign of the laptop is its ID as well so it worked, but it isn't always fair.

    Once again, thank you...

    This XP formatted external drive is partitioned into several directories. They stored the files wmv, songs, photos, etc.

    When I plug in USB, Vista computer said that it has found the driver DEVICE USB IA37L080ATVC07-2. But this hard drive storage has not shown in the file manager.

    Since my Office XP no longer works, I took the primary hard drive and a plan to set up as external drive to retrieve the documents and files...

    Does anyone know how to make a Vista machine to copy files from external hard drives in XP?

    Open "Disk Management" and see if the USB drive is listed, if so, then simply assign a drive letter to each partition on the USB drive. Then, open Windows Explorer and copy your files on the computer of Vista Basic.

  • Need to transfer all the data/program/music of old notebook Notebook again.

    Hello

    I am planing to buy a new laptop PC: Hp pavilion Dv6-6190SE or Dv6-6166TX is Dv6-6168TX.

    I have Hp pavilion Dv6 - 2177ca and plan to sell before you buy a new laptop.

    I have some data/programs/music and software on the Dv6 - 2177 ca, I need to be on my new laptop.

    I thought I'd take a backup using Windows7 backup of the Dv6 - 2177 ca and restoration for the new laptop.

    Do you think it will work?

    Will you please suggest me the best alternatives to transfer my programs/data/music/contacts whole without installing them again manually because it is a very painful process.

    Will you please answer soon because I'm going to buy this new Pc soon.

    P.S. Please also tell me if the Dv6 Dv6-6190SE-6166TX or Dv6-6168TX have backlit keyboard. I tried to communicate with the local people of Hp in my country, but they are of course not themselves and advise me to search the Internet. That's kind of weird because they themselves do not know what they are selling.

    I suggest to download, install and use the free version of Macrium Reflect. Back up your files to an external drive.

    I have no idea how this program will back up my files from the free version does not support files and folders.

    Do you think that Windows Easy Transfer will work in this case?

    Macrium Reflect allows cloning. Once you have a cloned partition, you can see inside the clone and recover files and folders from it. Here is a well written tutorial from the how-to Geek on the subject.

    I have a Belkin Windows Easy Transfer cable and have used it a few times. My results with Windows Easy transfer, and that is why my preference is the use of a cloning utility instead. Macrium Reflect has never failed me, and I've used dozens of times.

  • PSE 8 not backup Media Files

    I have PS Elements 8 (Windows 7-64 bit) with 9000 catalogued photos.  It is fabulous everything EXCEPT when I do a backup (file-> backup CD catalog) backup contains ONLY the catalog files, not the media files.  Backup of my 27 GB of photos is so only 200 MB.

    My multimedia files and my catalog files are both on the D: drive (2nd internal HD)... the Program files and Windows installed on C:. I tried grouped (all files are linked) and repair of the catalog (no problem found).  The backup works fine with no error, it's just MUCH too small.

    I tried the support of drive C:, D: drive and the DVD with exactly the same result.

    I made a simple copy/paste of my complete file on an external drive, so I have not saved much.  But I would use the built-in feature, so I transfer whole enchilada to my laptop without losing links (laptop doesn't have a disk D :).)

    Anyone have any ideas why PSE refuses my backup media?  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I must say that PSE 8.0 resembles a surprisingly low quality for Adobe product to ship.  I have

    I agree. See my review of the Amazon and the most complete list of bugs in PSE 8:

    Adobe is clearly PSE as a milk cow, by investing very little effort in the Organzer and preferring to add some new features for marketing purposes rather than fix bugs that pending for years.  Here is an interesting blog of Michael Slater, who led the development of the original Photoshop (later renamed to organizing PSE) Album.  Michael provides a time frame on the decline in the quality of the Organzer:

    I used to recommend the PSE Organizer to friends, but not more.  I continue to contribute here to help others like me who have large, existing catalogues in PSE.

    Lightroom is a better alternative for serious amateurs with large collections.   Windows Live Photo Gallery is surprising good for more casual users, even those who have very large collections (better than iPhoto, in my opinion).

  • media files not coupled in optional computer

    I used the project manager in cs5 to cut and save multimedia files on an external hard drive, so I can work in a different place with cs5 installed. However, on opening the project in the new location, all media files are not related. All of the trimmed clips are on the hard drive, as well as the scratch disk is the same as the project. Reissue of links each multimedia file is much too long and confusing. I don't know if I used incorrectly project manager or theres a way to recreate a link to all of the media files without making one after the other?

    If your file folder structure is identical to the original, you should be able to link a file in the folder in the foreground, and they will all automatically link again... Or, if it does not work (sometimes it is not for me) and all the clips are in the SAME file, shift + click to select all your clips in your bin, right click and hit "link media" link the first clip and all others will follow (even once, they must all be in the same folder for moving + click option to work...
