Instructions for using Windows Easy Transfer from Vista computer to a new Windows 7 computer.
I bought a new computer today that works under Windows 7. The old computer is running Windows Vista 32 bi my new computer is a 64-bit Windows 7 computer. So dumb I didn't find instructions for using Windows Easy Transfer to transfer my files from the old computer to the new. I already have a USB data transfer cable and the disk that came with it does not work with Win 7 However with Windows Easy Transfer that wouldn't do not necessary anyway. So my need for Instructions bo accomplich the task.
I gathered al records original program that I need to install the necessary programs on the new computer.
Any help or URL available covering my needs transfer will be much appreciated.
Remails a question. My venus of cable data transfer with a disc Intelemover with Windows Easy Transfer is that the disc is no longer necessary with WET?
It has nothing to do with Windows Easy Transfer (Intellimover that is).
You can probably use the cable - if you wish. I prefer to use a large external USB drive or share network - this way, that I have a copy of all that I could move to multiple computers or almost as a backup at low cost.

Questions about the use of Easy Transfer from XP to Win7
I looked at some of the information on the use of passing Easy Transfer from XP to Win7, and confusing; so, I am confused and hope that someone out there knows the answers. (1) I downloaded the program and he ran; It seems to be different from what is in Wn7 and a tutorial: are they? It simply shows the user files and shared are saved but does not show me what files. And it doesn't seem to be any way to look at in the. MIG file to see what is there. (2) after a new install of WIn7, ITI said to run Easy Transfer to restore files, but I don't see anything on how to do? (3) in addition, each report I've read, but one said first do the restore and then install the necessary programs. This seems to be doomed to failure; a program can create a nrew shirts, overwriting the data was placed in the same, old files.

I have no idea how access toolbars without this toolbar - I can't believe this allows this toolbar to delete (I did accidentally while trying to get an another toolbar restored). Thanks for any help
Hi toby,.
on the assumption that you always have access to the navigation bar, right click on the stop button, when the home page is loaded and check the 'Menu Bar' option in the context menu that appears.
If you need more help see the knowledge base article the Navigation buttons such as back, home, bookmarks and recharge are missing

How to use Skype to call from my computer to another computer
Original title: how to call a computer to
Hello
I can't find the instructions on how to use Skype to call from my computer to another computer so that I can get the video. Help.
TIA,
RS
For a first test, the simplest method is to organize before a time and date when you're both already connected to the internet and connected to Skype.
Then, they appear as 'online' in your Skype contact list. And communicate with them through that. Do not use the phone number.
You need to get them in your contact list, if they are not already in it.

can I use easy transfer from Windows 7 to Windows Vista?
I'm moving my wife's laptop running Windows 7 to a desktop running Vista, I can't transfer easily to work just so I think that it might be impossible. Someone can tell me if it is possible to do or not?
You cannot use WET to transfer files from a computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows to a running a 32-bit version, so make sure that both computers are running the same architecture. I think you have to use version Vista of WET on both computers because Vista is the target computer. Maybe that's a problem. Microsoft has made many changes to WET for Windows 7. All active links that I could find were to download the compatible version Windows 7 on XP and Vista and to transfers of these systems with a target of Windows 7.

using an easy transfer to move the files from xp to windows 8.
everything is fine until I try to open easily transfer them on my old computer. I get a message that I'm connected using a temporary profile. He is told to restart my computer, and then try again. Same result.
See if it works, its for Windows 7 but the fix 'may' be the same: http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/fix-windows-easy-transfer-error-using-temporary-profile-windows-7/
If this does not work, maybe a good old copy and paste amy mode is the best solution.
