OK it's going to sound stupid, but I'm unable to the simple task of copying the files to a cd

I've always used Windows Xp, but now Windows 7, sometimes I hold that I did not have it.

Under XP it ask me to updated program files I just used and I inderted the cd and it prompted me to update/overright the files on this cd, it was so simple.

I automatically save after using this program (my money), but I'm never invited to back up on the cd of windows 7

I looked in the Control Panel then hardware and autoplay to try to define the prompt, but the only choice is for a blank cd, do not update existing files on the used cd.

If I insert the cd it gives me just once the choice to open the folder in windows Explorer that I will do so.

There is no option in this area to copy or update the files.

Why is windows 7 so complicated when Xp was so easy to use?

As you can guess, I'm totally frustrated and annoyed.

When I use the help and support of research and research for copy files to a cd and I followed the instructions, it says the choice box should appear does not work!

Can someone please help me because I get to this point where I want to throw the thing out of my 3rd floor window dam.

Thank you

When you insert a cd or dvd in the dvd/rw drive, disc

All you really need to do is select all the files, right click on one of the highlighted files and select copy,

Right-click on the DVD/RW drive on the Navigation pane below the entry of the computer and select Paste,

When you right click dvd/rw again and select eject.

Automatic backup of Windows isn't reliable the manual method, flash player are your best option because they hold more files. the disks are limited so it is not worth all the time and trouble.

You can get pretty cheap flash drives these days.

    Windows 8.1 for Windows 10?

    In any case, you * don't *-however, something can and probably will happen not doing a full image backup just before changing throughout the operating system would be, at best, careless.

    Also - if you mean Windows 8.1 for Windows 10: do not trust a single scan or test to tell you whether or not the upgrade will be successful.  You should check with the manufacturer of each product (hardware and software) to ensure that support them (the real manufacturers of real products in question) is in place for the newer operating system.

    Hi lindat7439924,

    There is no uninstall for Mac Reader program. You can directly delete the application from the Applications folder, which is just trash/Applications/Adobe Reader.app.

    Then you can download Adobe reader from here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

  • When I go to file and download a picture that everything is fine, but when I go to the file again and try to load a second image makes the former disappear. Why?

    When I go to file and download a picture that everything is fine, but when I go to the file again and try to load a second image makes the former disappear. Why?

    From your description, I suspect that you have selected Open Documents as tabs in the Interface preferences section.

    Your first image doesn't go away, but is in tabs at the top of the images.

    If you prefer to see the images separately, uncheck the box of Documents open as tabs, as shown below

  • When I download something with Firefox, it shows progress, but when it's over, the file that I downloaded disappears.

    When you download something with Firefox, I can see the file in the downloads folder while it's downloading, but like when it is finished, the file disappears.

    It is possible that your antivirus software is corrupt downloaded files or otherwise interfere with the download of files by Firefox.

    Try disabling analysis in real time (live) files in your software anti-virus temporarily to see if that makes working download.

  • I am trying to download an E cook book but I can't find the file once downloaded.

    I downloaded several before E cookbooks and found in the recent, but just Articles, it appears on the screen to see and has no place to move it to a folder.  .  I want that they all in a folder together.  I tried to call the name of the cookbook E but come in white.  When I search through all my files I don't see anywhere... It's on my screen after downloading but when I X off it, it disappears.

    I'm lost!

    Thanks for the help, I finally understood what I was doing wrong.  When the books of kitchen E downloads first a menu bar appears at the bottom for a few seconds which has the icon on this economy and I didn't see it so I could save the book in my file... Laughing out loud... I'm old and forget things easily!

    I download books from the Mr. Food Recipes site, and what they download with Adobe Reader, I have downloaded or updated when I started the download of Mr. Food cookbooks.

    I've never used this site before, I'm glad I found it... I've had problems with my computer up to date so now maybe I can get some answers and help!

  • I have Vista with Office 2007, but I can't open the files PHP or PPP. Help?

    When I receive e-mails with attachments, PDF or PHP, I can not open them.  Any suggestions?

    Try to download the files on your computer, and then open them. Notepad opens files PHP, but also the other 3rd party software such as Adobe DreamWeaver.

    The PPP file extension is associated with the Panorama Factory, a photo-coutures program. For more information, contact Panorama Factory.

    Then click Start, and then click default programs. Check to see if there is a program associated with the extension php or PPP to open.

  • I bought the pack of pdf, but I can't access the files tool combine.

    I did the $14.99 per month plan for Acrobat Reader DC.  It does not access the many tools, including the files tool combine, I currently need to use.  He had me sign in the last week, and I had access to all the tools, but today when I open the program it says 'Add' tools.  When I click on 'Add', it takes me on the Adobe site that wants me to buy the same plan that I already bought.  Any help would be appreciated.

  • I'm going to sound stupid!

    I'm learning to use GoLive CS2 and also uses the IPC Adobes to even. I am on Lesson 8 and try to add a 'Open window' action Here's my dilemma, he says;

    Select the image. Select the link tab in the Image Inspector.

    Try as I might, I can't find the 'Image' tab in the Inspector, I can't find any information on how to open it (assuming I have!).     I also found instructions far from sufficient given this book is published by Adobe! Are there good sites with comprehensive tutorials out there?

    Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to help me.  Kind regards

    It's a Yes from the example. To get it as I wanted when this page was created, I used an action that did not come with called GoLive open window. This one has been updated since but I always use the 1.1. the version on this page. Do not remember why in fact... It has been a while very loooong since I finally watched this page myself. (Have been extremely busy at work over the last five years or so and no time for my own site (or the forums) that will change soon and a technical with more modern reconstruction came soon, including the migration of DW, unfortunately).
