I want to remove XP from my laptop but I have Windows 7. Is there a way of deleting XP without deleting Win 7?

Necessary to remove the most recent versions of win OS to remove the lower part. I want to uninstall XP, should I remove Win 7 first?

Obviously, you have Windows Xp and Windows 7 partition or separate hard drives. Simply right click on the drive/partition of Windows Xp and choose format.

You may need to run on Windows 7 then Startup Repair to remove the Windows Xp startup option. I recommend you do a repair disk before performing these actions. How to make a Windows 7 repair disc.

    Consult the instructions that you received initially or start under Vista and locate Center of recovery or something like that.  We can also give you the opportunity to press a combination of Fkey to restart in the recovery media stored on your hard drive.  If you create your recovery disks when you got the computer I would recommend you do now until it's too late.
     
    The disc comes with the computer has also information on how to retrieve, according to this website:http://www.uk tsupport.co.uk/advent/laptop/5431.htm
  • I have thousands of photos stored on my laptop. Most are duplicates. Is there a way to delete all duplicates easily? Or I have to delete them one by one manually?

    I'm so out of space that I can not even run a disk defragmentation. I have ereased/deleted everything I can. I worked on the removal of all duplicate for 3 weeks now. Please, no matter who, me say there's another way to do it.

    Hey Bill,.

    I don't know if it's the best way, but what you could do is in the folder you are in, sort files by date modified. Most of the time, the duplicates are created at the same time or close.  Sort this will put all the duplicates together which makes them much easier to manage and delete.

    I hope this helps.

  • Remove photos from my iphoto library and want to remove them from my phone

    Hello! I deleted a bunch of photos from iphoto on my computer and I want to that they be deleted from my phone, but when I plug my phone he wants to re - import all those pictures instead... is possible to synchronize so that everything I deleted on my computer will be deleted from my phone? I have a macbook air and iphone 6. Thank you!

    Once you have imported the photos from your iPhone via a USB port, you cannot synchronize the deletions to the iPhone. You must manually remove the photos.

    If you want to remove photos from all devices, when you delete Photos on your Mac, you must enable iCloud photo library.

    iCloud library update changes or deletions you make on one device on all other devices and keep libraries of Photos on all identical devices.  And if you take a photo with your iPhone, it appears automatically on your Mac.You need however enough storage in iCloud to organize all your photos.   See this link: iCloud Photo library FAQ

    I see that you are able to print from your iPhone, but impression of your Windows computer 8.1 gives you problems. There could be a problem with the driver of printing or the application you are printing from.

    To check if you are using the correct printer driver, please download and run the print and Scan doctor, it will be probably diagnose and fix the problem you are experiencing. What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    • Please try printing from another application to help isolate the problem.
    • Do you use a local web or e-mail client application-based e-mail account?

    There could be a problem with the Web browser you are using.

    • If you use a test of email based on web printing from other browsers such as Safari, FireFox or Google Chrome.

    To solve the problem with the problems causing the internet browser, follow these steps:

    Reset your Safari browser settings:

    1. Open your Safari web browser by clicking on the Safari icon in the dock.
    2. Click on Safari from the Safari menu, located at the top of your screen.

    Reset the settings of your Firefox browser:

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press ENTER. A list of preferences.
    2. Find the print.print_printer preference (Note: this preference is missing in Firefox profiles where you have never used the printer.)
    3. Right-click (context-click) this preference and select reset. (Some users may have to reset all the preferences of print.printer for a particular printer, if this master preference reset does not solve the problem.)
    4. Restart Firefox and see if the problem is resolved.

  • How do I remove photos from my iPad but leave them in iCloud

    I bought a new iPad with less storage than my current. I have a lot of pictures that are currently on my iPad and also stored in iCloud. Can I remove photos from my iPad, but leave them in iCloud?

    Can I remove photos from my iPad, but leave them in iCloud?

    Do you mean by "supported up to iCloud" you use iCloud photo library?  In this case, meeting of the iPad will remove the iCloud way photo. iCloud library updates the changes to the devices. If you remove apt on a single device, the deletion will be synchronized to iCloud and from there to all devices.

    To save storage on your new iPad turn on "Optimize storage" in the settings to iCloud.  Then the original high-resolution photos will be replaced with smaller versions on your iPad, and if you need a photo for editing or sharing full version must be downloaded from iCloud.

  • After compacting emails, all my emails from September 2011 until now have disappeared. Are there opportunities that I get back them?

    After compacting emails, all my emails from September 2011 until now have disappeared. Are there opportunities that I get back them? I use Outlook Exprees and he suggested that I should compact messages. I've done it several times before and everything was OK until

    Two reasons the most common for what you describe is disruption of the compacting process, (never touch anything until it's finished), or bloated folders. More about that below.
     
    Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :
    http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact
     
    Why mail disappears:
    http://www.insideoe.com/problems/bugs.htm#mailgone
     
    Recovery methods:
     
    If you are running XP/SP3, then you should have a backup of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin (or possibly the message store), copied as bak files.
     
    To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first find the location of the message store.
     
    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, the .dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in the Solution Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.
     
    Close OE and in Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file, then drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.
     
    Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.
     
    First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.
     
    If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.
     
    If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
     
    If you have not then bak copies of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin:
     
    DBXpress run in extract disc Mode is the best chance to recover messages:
    http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx
     
    And see:

    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4
     
    A general warning to help avoid this in the future:
     
    Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They finally are damaged. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.
     
    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 
     
    And backup often.
