Need advice on backup files

Could you please tell me how I can easily (I'm not technically proficient) back up the following:
-Microsoft security updates
-Updates to Norton Security
-other downloaded software program updates
-e-mail
-List of 'Favorites' Internet
-Desktop display settings
-all other important files suggest you

Your help would be appreciated gratefully.

Looks like you need a disk cloning program similar to the software used by Toshiba for their product recovery discs.
There are several commercial products like Norton Ghost, for example, but there are also those that are free like Terabyte Unlimited CopyWipe:

Unfortunately, I've used or program so I can't really comment on how they work.

  • Need advice on coding file settings from the first to be played on DVD

    HI - hoping someone can help me with my encoding settings.  I seem to be on the right track because everything looks good, until you play the video on DVD.

    I use Windows Movie Maker to encode my exports to DVD.  This software does not accept MP4 but it seems to receive a range of other files and one is WMV.  First, I exported a WMV first 1920 x 1080 video (the raw video and graphics are also in this size).  Then I exported another clip in 1280 x 720 WMV.  I just wanted to see what two of them look like during playback on a DVD.

    Here are the export settings:

    encode settings.jpg

    Here's what the1280 WMV looks like when it is read on my desktop in Windows Media player.  As you will see everything looks very clean:

    wmv screen shot.jpg

    I then imported 2 WMV clips in Windows Movie Maker, selected settings 16:9, and they coded into a finished DVD.  I then played the DVD on my 50 inch TV in my living room.  Below, you will see a photo that I took of the 1920 clip; Notice how the text looks like in steps:

    jagged.jpg

    Then the photo below of the 1280 clip looks much cleaner.

    cleaner.jpg

    But of course, I would like for the DVD finished watching if possible even cleaner the 1280 photo above - I hope as it looks on the photo of the WMV read on my computer.  These videos will be distributed to various local offices.

    Are my WMV settings correct?  Should I export to other than WMV? How can I improve the DVD of 1280 above photo so everything looks even cleaner (if possible)?  I have Adobe Encore - should I use instead of Movie Maker?

    Any help is appreciated.  Thank you.

    You make these files in Encore for DVD creation.  You have installed?

  • Restore the backup files. Windows Vista Expert needed!

    Help!  Recently, a virus wiped out my operating system (Windows Vista).  C drive my PC had literally nothing about it.  Then I got a new VISTA OS installed by a repair shop.  I tried to restore my previous configuration from the backup I had on an external drive, using the Vista Backup & Restore utility.  This "worked" except that he restored the backup files in a separate location on the C drive.  Using the windows Explorer I see all those files that have been restored in a folder named "Thom".

    However the new Vista installation has the user name "Thomas" where a configuration complete, (Documents, Favorites, desktop, etc.), was created.  When I connect, it's the config I see (new office, new files and folders for this new user, 'Thomas'.  I want to use the configuration, (files, folders, office computer), under the former name "Thom", not this new one, "Thomas."

    I'm afraid to just delete the files under Thomas I'm afraid I'm going to destroy my access to Windows in general.  Currently, I show only a user account in the control panel.  I don't have the 'Thom' user in the folder of the user within the new configuration.  How to delete files and folders under Thomas and use files and folders in the folder named Thom that is located on drive C?

    All restoring the backup files are there, they show just a folder on drive C, titled "Thom".  When I connect to my pc it takes me to your desktop created by the new facility.  I need ALL the files in the backup (office, e-mail, files & folders), not the Setup program created by the installation of the new Vista.  I want to be able to connect to windows and have it use the backup files, which are located in this folder named "Thom" which show on the C drive.

    Can I simply combine or merge or copy the files in the folder 'Thom', I want to use in the files of the same name, (contacts, documents, Favorites, desktop), which are under the name of "Thomas"?  Can I remove folders under the user 'Thomas' and all it's files and records and hope that windows then takes me in the files that I want to use?

    I use my laptop, (HP Pavilion, 64-bit), for business and I'm dead in the water until I can access my old configuration.  I am on day 5 of this disaster and I am desperate, please help!

    Hello Reggie999,

    Thanks for the return of the response.  You can move the files/folders in the 'Thom' folder in your new user account 'Thomas '.   Or another option would be to create a new user account and call it what you want, then move the folder in this user account.

    If you create a new user account and move your files/folders to this account, it would be nice to delete the user account 'Thomas '.  Just make sure that you have all of the files in the profile that you have recently created/added.

  • All my backup files are archived, need help

    I'm trying to restore backup files do everything on time. However, they are in a weird format (photos can be found here):

    http://s1194.Photobucket.com/albums/aa374/gRave_blade/?action=view¤t=Snap1.jpg

    So basically, as it is now, I would manually search each one to find what I want. does anyone know a better solution than that? any help is greatly appreciated.

    I had simular problems but found that if you open the program that created the backup files there is usually an option to restore. Use this and it should put them all back where they came from and some offer a new place where to put them. I think you could transfer beable to mass. Create a folder on your desktop label everything you remember you say photos from photobucket. Go to photobucket where your photos are and click on the first file, then hold down the SHIFT key and click the last file then right click in the area highlight and you should get an option in there to copy, click on it then right on the folder that you created and click on paste and a copy of their planned to transfer everything to the folder.

    Hope this works for you, it should.

    Good luck

    My TB backup file is a file of PVC and I can't find how to install it in my new installation of TB.

Finally had to use my own Tech to remove W10 & reinstallW8 - took him 4 hours.

    Now, I just need to get my old emails and contact list on TB. Can anyone help please?

  • Need advice - questions of m8100n and stop Pavilion

    Hi all!

    I need some technical advice, because I do not know what way to go now with my m8100n Pavilion.  He began to act up in March of this year and died in total.  Once troubleshooting with support online from HP, it was determined that my motherboard (Nettle2) is bad and that it has replaced.  As it was out of warranty, we decided that a new Office was a more cost-effective solution, so the m8100n has set aside for me to tinker with later.

    Two weeks ago, I had the nerve to replace the motherboard myself.  I'm handy with all other aspects of the inside of a PC, but the motherboard was the "last frontier" for me.  I found a MCP61PM-HM on eBay that was v2.20 (thinking that the original motherboard had been improved since the v1.08 which was in my m8100n), so I bought it.  Replace the motherboard, I discovered that I had bought a Nettle3, who would continue to work with my m8100n but would lose a PCI slot.  No biggie!  I replaced the Nettle3 and all connected together and voila!  The m8100n puts as it is supposed to and no closing fast and constant.  I am a camper happy, right?

    Here's my problem: I installed Windows Vista on the m8100n using the motherboard Nettle3 (Yes, I know about the need for the new motherboard tattoo the recovery discs to work, but I wanted to use this office as a backup/file server, so I was not terribly concerned about the recovery discs) and everything seems to work very well.  However, after leaving the unit top during the night or during the day while I am at work, I find that the unit has stopped.  The green light at the back of the Unit indicates that the power supply is always powered, so I don't think that is the question.  Just for fun, I installed PC Wizard 2009 and SpeedFan to measure the temperature inside the device, and it doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary.  I did the other night while I was watching TV and suddenly noticed that PC Wizard 2009 showed that Core 1 (which I suppose is one of the mainstays of my AMD Athlon 64 X 2 Dual Core 5600 processor) climbed about 25 ° C to 60 ° C and 70 ° C, then 80 c, and finally almost 90 c, while Core 2 showed a steady 15-25 ° C.  I shut down the system to avoid any damage, but now I think the unit is closing itself because the processor overheats.

    Is it possible that one of the mainstays in my Athlon is defective and it is originally the stops, or is there something else I could be dominant?  PC Wizard 2009 tensions seem to be well, and temperatures inside the case seem to happen as well.  I don't want to give up this PC, because it seems that it is something simple that I could be dominant and am thinking that I might be too close to the issue to see what is really bad, and I'm hoping to pull out of the collective wisdom in these forums.

    Thank you in advance for any advice or suggestions that you might be able to offer!

    NEW UPDATE:

    After sitting the PC side for some time over the holidays, I started to do research on the processor AMD Athlon X 2 5600 +, given that all the indications suggest a heat problem with Core 1, who was leading in the PC by stopping.  After researching this CPU Model (Brisbane), it seems that Brisbane processors have a known issue with faulty temperature sensors core, which was probably, leading to a temperature reading fake being reported and causing PC stops.  This would also explain why the radiator or the CPU were always warm to the touch just after a shutdown due to overheating occurred.  I ordered a replacement AMD Athlon X 2 5600 + (not my workhorse PC, so I didn't need to upgrade the processor) and one both installed the CPU, memory, video card, DVD-R/W and finally the hard and everything seems to work normally again.  I ran a few stress tests on the PC from one day to the next, and the max reported temperature was 45 c 42 on Core 1 and Core 2.  It seems that the issue of the arrest was related to the CPU after all!

    Thus, after the better part of a year on and off with the PC, DIY replace the original motherboard to solve the problems of power cycle that I had originally, and replacing the CPU to solve overheating and issues which occurred after replacing the motherboard seems to have given new life to Pavilion m8100n.  What will make an excellent secondary / media server PC and will compliment my Pavilion m9500t nicely.  Thanks for all your help!

  • Why can't I open my backup files to my PC?

    Hello! I recently did a backup of my phone using iTunes, but every time I have to browse these files, they are all a weird format that my computer does not recognize, so my question is how do I backup my files while being able to open on my PC

    There is no official way to unlock iPhone save the file. The only way that you can 'use' it is to restore it to your phone via iTunes.

    There are a few 3rd party applications claiming to be able to open iTunes backups but I do not recommend to use them, like playing with herself, save might be unusable when you need it. But if you really do just google 'open iPhone backup file', and I'm sure you'll find something.

    But even once, do not.

  • Internal structure / JSON bookmark backup file specification

    My current version of Firefox is 28.0.

    What I already know, is:
    -backup of bookmarks (JSON) files are stored in folder
    "...\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ < xxxxx >. default\bookmarkbackups
    in the files like for example bookmarks-2014-04 - 27_770.json
    (or in any other place when you manually save).

    -only Favorites export files are stored in any place under HTML (XML) as a Netscape bookmark on your export demand.

    -the main difference between these two formats is that in the HTML ONLY the BOOKMARKS export file (URL / URI) and no. TAGS are stored.

    -the JSON backup file stores the bookmarks (Uri), tags and complete the structure of the tree. Firefox is therefore able to restore the menu bookmark complete with all its information.

    I do a lot of searching for information in internet. To support a work sophisticated with hundreds or even thousands of boomarks collected tags are absolutely necessary. And I often export bookmarks with tags to other browsers or social bookmark sites. So I have no idea why firefox doesn't support tags in the export files - because a large amount of bookmarks without tags is not easy to manage.

    My idea is to program a tool or an extension that reads a file backup JSON and constructs an HTML export file which also contains tags.

    The problem is that the internal structure of the JSON backup file is quite complex. It contains in fact 'id', 'index', information from 'parent' (fully digital) which allows to reconstruct the original directory structure. Same information on labels is somehow related to bookmarks. Actually the file has a complicated structure of lists and trees. And do not think that there is any identifier, e.g. "tags" which precedes the list labels attached to a bookmark (as in HTML export). In fact I could identify some of my tags in the file, but they are not named for example with 'tag' - I could identify them because I know they are some of my tags defined, but a program does not have this information and needs in General, identification tags in the file. Currently, I don't know any way to do this!

    Is there someone who has a better understanding of the structur of this file or know a specification that could be somewhere? Thans so much in advance...

    Tags are basically this structure if you are looking for backup bookmarks for tags JSON:

    {
     'title': 'Tags',
     'type': 'text/x-moz-place-container',
     'root': 'tagsFolder',
     'children': [
       {
        'title': '<tag title>',
        'id': <tag id>,
        'type': 'text/x-moz-place-container',
        'children': [
          {
           'title': '',
           'id': <id of child>,
           'parent': <parent id>,
           'type': 'text/x-moz-place',
           'uri': 'http://',
           'charset': 'UTF-8'
          },{ <more children> }
         ]
       },{ <more children> }
      ]
    },

    Note that easier to inspect a backup JSON is opening the file in Notepad, and then click the print enough to make Firefox display the file in the format.
