Moving files between disks problem cases

I followed the instructions to move my Documents to another hard drive. The source was an internal SSD flash drive, the other disc was a typical internal hard drive. I use Windows 7 Professional.

I do not give the new location a file but simply transferred on the disc, which had other files it contains.

After moving Outlook stopped working because he could not find the necessary files.

He wouldn't let me reverse the process until (hopefully), I could remember what was already on my 2nd drive before transfer and delete these files. He then I would reverse the Outlook process so now OK.

If I follow the correct procedure, why Outlook did stop working and what other damage could cause such a transfer?

Because although the wording of the utility indicates moving the "My Documents" folder move he actually just the contents of the folder to the new location.

Assuming that the dialog shows the C:\Users\votre_nom_utilisateur\My Documents path you have two options.

On the destination drive, create the path where you want the files, use the Browse button to select the new path and then move

Or (and much simpler) select the current path, remove ONLY the part 'C' and replace it with "D" (if it's the new drive letter) so it reads D:\Users\votre_nom_utilisateur\My Documents and select move. Now, he must create the new path, move the files and folders and update the pointers.

Make sure that Outlook is not running when you make the change.

  • Moving files between FM v7 and v8

    Dear God help me!  I'm on the phone with Adobe 800 number for assistance and the guys don't get this.  It is NOT SO difficult!

    I have the opportunity to work for someone who has FrameMaker version 7.  I have the opportunity to buy FM version 8.  IF I do this and create products for him.  He will have problems reading or modifying the files?   It's going to be whatever it is lost in the transfer?  Simple questions for me.  Maybe I'm crazy asking to our!

    Thanks for ANY help!  I had to hang up on the guy!  If I need back call Adobe WHERE I would call!

    You can always transfer Frame 8 7 chassis using Save as MIF files. This works for older versions. However, if you use the newere functionality it obviously won't work that well. The biggest problem you have is in unicode format. To be honest, the only seamless workflow will be for you two to use the same version.

  • moving files between folders

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium. When the dumping of many photos - including videos - the camera they all despite covering many different topics end up in a single folder. How to sort and move them to other more relevant issues?

    You mentioned the snap.  This is a good option.

    Open your Windows Explorer folder and go in your pictures folder.  Drag it to the side of the screen until it snaps.

    Open another folder in the file browser and drag it to the other side.  Then, you can easily drag-and - drop files from one to the other.

  • Moving files between 2 different catalogs

    Is it possible to move a file to a catalog in a catalog in LR3? If so, please share how it's done

    Thanks in advance

    If you want to leave the location of the image file where it is now, you can do this by following these steps:

    • Select the photos you want to move in grid Mode
    • Chose export as catalog
    • Choose a location for the exported catalog and uncheck "export negative files.
    • Perform the export
    • Delete the images selected in the original catalogue

    In doing so, you have created a new catalog with just the images selected in the process. If you want to incorporate those in an another already existing catalog, you can do by importing the newly created catalog with the function "import from catalog.

    If you also want to export (= double) the original images with the new catalogue, check 'export negative files' in the export process.

    If you selected "Include available previews' in the process is not so relevant. In doing so, the catalog newly built will be already supported by previews built from the beginning, steps, the first launch of the new catalog will launch a version of the preview.

  • Transfer of files between drives: data loss or corruption?

    1. Is there data loss or corruption during the transfer of files between disks in Windows 7?
    2. What about very large files, gigabytes in size?
    3. Is it possible to check if there is data loss or corruption?

    Creation and verification of a checksum is a file operation.  It doesn't matter where the files are stored.

    It doesn't matter if the source is a CD, a USB flash drive or a hard drive.  As much as the destination is concerned, if you write a large file on a CD, the possibility of error is greater if copy to a USB flash drive or an external hard drive.  Which is why you often see tips to burn at the slowest speed available when writing large critical files as an ISO installation file.

    The only difference between 'copy' and 'move' is this movement copies the file and automatically deletes the original.

    You want to make sure that the file copied correctly before the original has disappeared.  The way to ensure that is to perform a copy operation, check the integrity of the copied file and delete the original.

  • When I want to burn a CD in Windows Media Player, it shows "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem when burning the file to disk". What's wrong? How to fix?

    When I want to burn a CD in Windows Media Player, it shows "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem when burning the file to disk".    What's wrong? How to fix?

    I tried several times to remove the selection to burn and create a new a new but it keep "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem when burning the file to delivery" appears what should I do?   What problem is it?

    Hello

    1. what file format you are trying to burn?

    2. have you made changes on the computer recently?

    3. What is the security software installed on the computer?

    If it's something you downloaded, it may be copy protected by DRM, in which case you may not burn it to a CD or DVD.

    Here are a few things to try:

    1. make sure that the disc is clean.

    2. try a different brand of blank discs.

    3. stop all other programs that are running.

    4. make sure that the hard drive does not use disk compression.

    I suggest that you follow these steps and check if they help to solve the problem.

    Method 1:

    Try to use the Troubleshoot utility to see if that solves the problem.

    a. open the troubleshooting Windows Media Player settings Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel.

    (b) in the search box, type "convenience store" and then click Troubleshooting.

    c. click on show all and then click the Windows Media Player settings.

    Method 2:

    Select a recording speed (write) more slow for the CD burner.

    Change settings for burning a CD or DVD in Windows Media Player

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/change-settings-for-burning-a-CD-or-DVD-in-Windows-Media-Player

    Method 3:

    If you have any third-party burning software, I suggest you temporarily Uninstall it and then try to burn the disc using Windows Media Player.

    Note: Reinstall the software after the trial.

    Method 4:

    Temporarily disable all programs that could activate themselves, while burning is in progress, such as screensavers or anti-virus programs.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

    Note: Run the computer without antivirus software or firewall is a potential threat to the computer; Be sure to activate security software after completing the troubleshooting steps and after identifying the problem.

    I hope this helps.

  • Copying files between hard drives problem

    Hello

    I have problems copying files between hard drives on my computer. I was having this problem on Windows 7 and Windows Vista, but never met him on XP.  It seems that there are several similar topics, but I think I've noticed a few oddities in my own experience...

    I have several drives, between 500 GB ~ 1 TB.  Problems arise when I try to copy a folder with a large number of files (pictures, records about 4 GB in size, typically).  Initially, the transfer rate would be HD burst speed, somewhere between 90 MB to 150 MB.  Speed would be reduced to about 30 MB, or even lower.  The transfer ends by becomes so slow that the operation would take hours to complete.  If I try to cancel, it would take minutes to do.  The computer run slowly for a long period of time, with an offset of intermittent until I have to reboot the system.  This occurs regardless the source and destination drives.

    On some Samsung drives, this problem is actually lead to the corruption of data on the source and destination drives and i/o error messages.  CHKDSK runs at startup, try to solve the problem, but the data would be lost or unreadable disc.  I have since thrown the Samsung WD drives, do not have IO error, but the file copy problem persists.  I also disabled chkdsk at startup for all readers.

    My drivers and Bios are up-to-date.  Computer is free of viruses and malware.  I have no more trouble with Windows 7.  Curiously, if I compress my folders/files in one RAR file, I have no problems copying (transfer rate remains stable at 30 ~ 50MB).  This leads me to believe that this is not a hardware problem, but a problem with the Explorer of solutions, and that respect more particularly with the number of files transferred rather than size.  (But unpacking these files also lead to poor performance sometimes...)

    Is this a known issue that will be corrected?  I really like Win7, but because I work with large number of files and many backups all the time, stability during the file copying is a must.  I have perhaps to go back to XP, or use another OS entirely...

    I had the same problem;

    My system-

    Windows 7 Pro 64
    Core i7 940
    7200 RPM dual 500 GB SATA
    Gigabit ethernet

    Gigabit ethernet switch
    Gigabit router

    Buffalo NAS 1 TB, RAID 0, Gigabit Ethernet

    -----

    I was getting speeds of transfer of a maximum of 500 / 600 KB/s between the hard drive and network storage drive. I went through a number of * fixed * on the web without success, however, I disabled "TCP AutoTuning" and "RSS" rebooted and voila, I now get speeds of transfer of 9-10 MB / s and from the network drive.

    The fix
    It should be noted that, in addition to this, I have updated to the latest updates for Windows and off the DRC in the Windows Options under programs/features.

    How to disable TCP AutoTuning and receive scalability side

    1. Open a prompt with administrator rights.
    2. Type the following commands, and press enter (the second command on RSS is optional):

      netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel = disabled
      netsh interface tcp set global rss = off

    3. Restart the computer.

  • IX4 - 300 d - cannot copy files between actions or the ext disk. USB

    Hi forum!

    I can't work for the life of me how to move files between the shares on the NAS. I can access my computer fine actions. I have a USB HARD drive connected to the front USB port and I want to copy some files from the HARD drive to a shared folder on the NAS, but when I'm in the content browser that I have no option to copy, and there is no functionality of drag - move. That I going nuts or something blatantly obvious lack?

    I want to copy data from USB directly as it is a few TB of data and copying on the LAN will take ages. It's going to be a regular thing, but I can't really put in place a copy job, because it is not the same type of data or file locations every time.

    Help, please!

    Thank you!

    Matt

    Hello MattDobson,

    You will need to map the actions:
    https://www.Google.com/webhp?SourceID=chrome-instant&ion=1&ESPV=2&IE=UTF-8#q=how+to+map+a+network+sh...

    And move the data in this way, the Ext HDD will appear as its own share, but can be mapped as others.

    The content in the UI Viewer is not designed to move data.

    You can find documentation and downloads for the ix4 - 300 d here:

    You can download the Storage Manager Lenovo via the link above, and which should help you to map actions.

  • Moving documents between the download folder and another folder in Documents

    I read this useful article on the basics for moving files, etc. between folders in El Capitan: OS X El Capitan: basics of file.  This article is useful, but it is not my problem.

    I have a long list of Documents folders in the Finder.   So, every time I try to drag files from downloads of Documents, I would have a long distance to travel with my fingers until I come in my target folder, say, the Z folder at the bottom of the list of Documents.  But there is not enough space on my pad to keep dragging files with my finger all way to the Z folder.  So, I end up having to move the document to a folder to halfway (middle distance), and then drag again from there to the file target Z I want.  For this reason, I need cut & paste to move files between folders.

    You know a simpler way to move files between folders?

    I use Macbook Air with El Capitan.   Thank you.

    Copy the files and then press Option key when pasting.

  • Satellite A300D - creating recovery disk problem

    Hello.

    I have Toshiba Satellite A300D-11 t (extended A300D-11) and I would like to create recovery disk. Problem is that I can't run the Toshiba Recovery disk creation tool. There is no shortcut in the start menu.
    I tried to run Program Files.

    Program itself exists (or at least I think it does), there are files in the Program Files folder, in "Programs and features" program is also so I could remove it.
    Simply click on the file TosRDC.exe (or any other file *.exe in this case) and it does not start.

    For memory - recovery partition exists and has not been changed.

    System - Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
    What should do?

    Hello

    I would say to pick up the machine from the disk and then, immediately after the machine, you should try to create a recovery disk. It could be that something in the meantime destroyed some piece of software in your operating system that could be the reason of this problem.

    Maybe not a very elegant solution but the only one that works every time.

    Hi watthhel,

    I think the error message must be correct to Windows 7 and you must do what tells you the message: immediately back up your data and replace the HARD drive with a new one. In your case I would never save important files on the HARD drive. Too risky to lose important files

    Your laptop is 4 months old and that would mean it s covered by the warranty. Contact your local authorized service provider and ask for a replacement drive. They will exchange it and the service is free. :)
