PC failure forced me to a new pc win 7. Help transfer contacts
The motherboard of the pc under XP failed, but the hard drive is readable.
I have now got new pc with win7 and I consulted the old hard drive and transferred files from windows live mail and imported in the history of the e-mail.
I can't find my contacts that can be moved to win7. Where do I go and how can I transfer the old hard drive?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
On my XP system, they are stored in C:\Documents and settings\userid\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail\Contacts\Default\15.4\DBStore\Contacts.EDB Live.
If you do not, you could do a search for the DBStore folder or simply the Contacts.EDB file because that is where it is. That is the good news. The other news is that, when I double-click the Contacts.EDB file, Windows could not find a program to open it. I don't know if there will be a program around that or is there a way to get Windows Live Mail to open, which is where the contacts are.
One thing you could do would be to some of your emails existing right click, then click "add to contacts". It's perhaps easier than trying to get the content of the Contacts.EDB file.
Good luck.

Why force Adobe installs their new Flash drive on billions of computers when it is causing so many browsers only play video?
I had installed the Flash Player 11.2.202.228 28/03/2012 and it worked very well, unlike some of the previous Flash players in several web browsers, so I chose NOT to install a new actors Flash that came after that, all based on experience.
But last Friday, 22/06/2012, I received a new message to install Adobe Flash Player that came in my office for the new Flash Player v 11.3.300.262 and I chose NOT to install it for the reason I said above... and the look now at all the problems this new Flash player has caused for so many people.
Now I see glancing at my Add-ons Manager in my Firefox browser, and in my program Panel of Windows 7 in the control panel that the stupid new Flash Player v 11.3.300.262 has been INSTALLED FORCE behind my back, even if I don't install certainly NOT it and I deleted the installation Panel when he came to my office on Friday.
And now no videos or content Flash will not play in my Firefox browser! Good job Adobe!
What is the Adobe problem?... why you require the software on our computers that obviously was not installed by the user, and then screw it to the top of our computers.
How to explain something like that?
Now, I have to troubleshoot it and try to install my old Flash Player.
Why?
Having click on classic view on the left side of the Control Panel window, which should show all of the icons and allow him to see the Flash Player icon. The alternative is to type 'flash player' in the control panel search box which should be also.
Note also that change the auto update to "notify me to install updates" will only delay the process of 30 days. After 30 days, the update will be installed automatically. You can completely disable this by changing it to "never check", but I would certainly recommend against that.

Just got the new iPhone 7 & when I transfer iphone 6 iPhone 7, my music has arisen on the phone, but none of my music is available offline, try to understand how I can download all at once for use offline, without having to enter each individual album and click the cloud. I have a lot of music on my phone, would take me forever to individually download each album one by one for offline use.
I have both bought albums/songs itunes and also many of the monthly music apple package. In any case for all it all at once?
Hello

Go down homepage itunes page where it says more about this music bought to display
And download
For music apple if its does not sign of apple ID then sign.

When I press the Apple and R keys at the start of my old iMac just boots to the old system rather than start to install new sound system. Help
Command-r does not work on a 10.6.8 system, you would need 10.7 Lion or better to do. If you try to install a new system and that you have already downloaded, then go to your Applications folder and double-click "install OS X...". »

I got my Curve 9300 stolen last Sunday and immediately called my service provider to block the sim card and blacklist the phone.
Now I have a new 9360 I used to restore contacts, etc. of the BB Desktop Software. I'm confused that I can still chat with my BBM contacts without changing the pin to the new code.
Is it correct that I thought that the PIN was ONLY linked to the old phone?
Any help much appreciated.
If you have restored a backup of your phone, it have restored to backup your BBM contacts. As part of the restore lists the process it would update your contacts with your new PIN.

BlackBerry Smartphones transfer contacts from mobile to new curve BB
Hi everyone, I just got a new bb and need to transfer numbers from my old curve (which I lost) on this one. All numbers are saved on my laptop in what appears to be a .ipd file? IM useless with this stuff and would appreciate any help. Ive tried about 6 times already but this is not workirking! Pls Heeelp
Hello and welcome to the community!
Indeed, these IPD files are backups of your BB and are available as a source of food (they are a proprietary format and cannot be used for any other purpose, except by a few 3rd party applications that have been written to analyse). Choose the most recent one (the one with the most recent date and time, as displayed in the File Manager Windows) using this procedure:
