Move Windows 7 from one computer to the other.

I installed Windows 7 on my desktop, but would prefer to have on my laptop.  How can I disable on my desktop to install on my laptop?  The Office has been an update to XP.  I have so that I can boot XP as a dual boot.

If it is a license to retail - Yes, you can move it to another computer as long as it is installed on a single computer at a time. The previous installation of Windows 7 must be formatted or deleted. You will have to perhaps call Microsoft and explain what happened to complete activation. Turn on the second computer will automatically deactivate the license for the first computer. The key works with 32 and 64 bit, but can only be installed at a time.

If it's an OEM license - don't. OEM licenses are bound to the first computer, they are installed on and cannot be transferred to another computer.

I have so that I can boot XP as a dual boot.

For a double start requires a full Windows 7 license, not a license upgrade.

  • I'll copy Mozilla firefox from one computer to the other. I don't want to download from the internet, I caught the virus of "Babylon" in this way.

    (1) you really have to make it easier to contact support. Get rid of password requirements!
    (2) I would copy safely Firefox from one computer to the other. I don't want to download from the internet. Really, we love and use firefox. I had to remove firefox because it came with the virus of Babylon.

    If you have been Babylon when you installed Firefox you may have installed it from an authoritative source (the only official place and secure to download Firefox from www.getfirefox.comEast). Please, never download Firefox from anywhere else.

    So, for your computers, be sure to download Firefox from www.getfirefox.comand you download the version official, convenient and safe.

    If you get Babylon on your computer, you can remove it easily without having to remove Firefox by reading How to remove the toolbar of Babylon, home page and search engine (Please note that Babylon is not affiliated with Firefox and we actively seek to solve these problems).

  • How to move the Creative Suite 6 from one computer to the other.

    I have a version of a Creative Suite 6 license. How can I move it to a laptop of his current computer? I have to go through a process of disabling the first computer, and then install with the licence number on the laptop? If so, you could tell me how to disable the first computer?

    A single user license allows installation enabled on both machines.  If you do not want that it works on the original machine that you can.  If you want to disable and then open one of the applications and choose Help-> Deactivate.

    To get it on the new computer, you must install the same way you did when you initially install (transfer will not work).  If you need a download for it then you should be able to find one through the following page:

    CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html

    You will also need your serial number.  If you have registered the software when you installed it first, then you should be able to find your serial number registered in your Adobe account online.

  • ?' article ProDesignTools regarding s "How to Move or upgrade Adobe CS6 from one computer to the other.

    I read this article: http://prodesigntools.com/move-adobe-cs5-between-computers-or-windows-to-mac.html and I have the following questions:

    I have an older Windows laptop and wants to buy a boxed version of CS6. If my Windows laptop crashes or starts to malfunction, I want to buy a MacBook.

    If, at that time, CS7 has not yet been released, it is true that everything I'd need to do would be to disable the software on my Windows computer and install it on my MacBook, using the same serial number in an "extension"?

    I understand that there is a 30 day free trial available of CS6 on the MacBook I install and activate on it. It would be possible for a version of CS6 Mac to be sent to me?

    I probably wouldn't buy an another CS6 in these circumstances, correct?

    If, at that time, CS7 has already been released, I do the above so that purchase an upgrade to CS7, correct?

    You're wrong. No, you cannot simply use your serial number to Win on a Mac. This requires a good trading platform, which is free for current versions, but cannot be done at once. And you don't get a physical media unless you explicitly ask. It's just a download. CS7 is available when you buy simply upgrade platforms and switch.

  • How to move free space from one Partition to the other?

    I first got this computer (Dell, Windows 7) I had two I had two partitions, a C drive which had 50 GB and a D drive that had the rest of my 500 GB (approximately 397). now my c drive it filled and I can't get it all files to move on go drive D, then it's like I don't have any space left on my computer. I tried to reduce the amount of GB that were in the D drive, but it won't let me expand the fill c. and I can not just delete the D drive eather because I have files on there that I had to move to the course. is there a simple why i can shrink the D drive and extend the C drive?

    Another option would be to leave the scores they were and redirect your Documents, photos etc to the bigger partition (I think that's what you were trying to do it before you tried to change the partitions) as described in the following link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Redirect-a-folder-to-a-new-location

  • Moved from Office Windows 7 from one room to the other and now it cannot find the wireless network

    Hello world

    I have a HP Pavilion running Windows 7.

    He was hooked through the ethernet in a single room.

    I moved it to another room where there was no inflexible access, so I relied on the use of our wireless network.

    Now, the computer will not even find the wireless network.  When I have the help, it says "no available connection."

    In the center of the network, selecting wireless has a red X to the left of the green signal bars.

    At first, I wondered if maybe the computer was in a "dead point" in our House, but I've put a laptop beside him and he found the thin wireless network.

    Any help?

    Update: I tried system restore and tried to stop/resume knowledge network locations, but to no avail.

    Here is the info on my card wireless directly from HP site:

    Original driver for the solutions of Dualband network Atheros 802.11 Wireless Module a/b/g/n.

    I found what I think, it's their website, (http://www.atheros.cz/atheros-wireless-drivers.php), but surprise... they only model # s, my info does not.  Ugh.

    False alert guys. The series has not worked because it was for Production Premium and I had downloaded Design Premium. Sometimes I'm a dingus.

  • Install Windows 7 from one computer to another

    Hi all

    I got this question I was not able to find an answer yet and I wonder if anyone of you could help me out here.

    I had a laptop that I use for work, which has Windows 7 Ultimate and a lot of software and personal files, I need. I recently bought a new more powerful laptop that will replace the one I use at the moment.

    My question is,

    Can I do a full to the top of the computer that I use and put it on the new computer, I will get? And then update the laptop with its own pilots?
    Is worth it to do a cleaning installation at all instead?
    Is it possible to transfer files and software from one machine to another using some sort of tool such as that used for XP to 7 or Vista to 7? Do we not have a Win 7 for Win 7 one?

    Thank you
    Sam

    Hi sam,

    You can take a full backup of the data on your computer and transfer it to the new computer, but for the application, you need to install a new copy of the same thing.

    You can even use transfer Windows-a tool that helps you transfer files and settings from one computer to the other. But as you mentioned that you transfer to a powerful computer hardware and software conflict may appear, if you have a full backup you can perform a clean installation.
