• How to migrate from Windows XP to Windows 7 non-destructively?

  How to migrate from Windows XP to Windows 7 to non-destructively?... meaning is there a way to do this without backup data (on the XP disk), the Windows 7 upgrade and then restore the XP backup data?

  Moreover, since the structures of folders (I am told are slightly different) XP and Windows 7 where can I restore the data from?

  for example where my Documents from XP to go on the side of Windows 7? and so on... there at - it a 'table of equivalence' for this?

  Thank you.

  The upgrade to Windows XP?

  Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

  Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

  More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

  1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

  2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

  3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

  4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

  5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

  If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

• Data loss after restoring system (non-destructive) F11 on Presario

  Hello:

  I have a Compaq Presario V3019 with Windows XP. I made a "non-destructive" system recovery using the F11 key after plugging on. The restoration of the partition went well and then I completed the Windows set up / configuration of sequence (language, time zone, user account names, etc.).  But now I don't see any of my files under My Documents (I had several subfolders and files here)!

  Moreover, in the last step of installing windows when you are prompted to create accounts of users (not knowing any better) I used the same name as before for my account (except the first letter was lower, not higher, case). Would using the same name that before (it's case sensitive?) cause an excessive writing of the original My Documents folder? Is there a way to get the old folder (with all subfolders and files) back? Help, please.

  OMG! I FOUND MY MISSING FILES!  Over 30GB, collected over 10 years (pictures, tax returns, e-mail archives, everything...)!  THANK YOU, Adam! I followed your suggestion above and voila! another folder "Alex" appeared which was previously hidden.  But I couldn't have inside this folder.  I kept thinking it's gotto the missing folder; I have to get inside.  I then found a few instructions to access this folder at this link:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/nph00268.

  I followed the steps there and restarted normal Windows and there it was "Alex Documents"! Each of them!

  Half a million congratulations to Adam to lead me there!

• Lightroom is really non-destructive?

  New to lightroom here.

  I noticed that people call lightroom one type of non-destructive workflow of software.

  But if I make a change anywhere, for example I apply a preset first. Can I do other things.

  Now, let's say I like what I have did not last but I want a little change the preset that I applied first.

  Can I really go back, make the change and keep the rest of the latest changes?

  As far as I can see, recent changes are overwritten by the slight changes I make in the "Preset".

  How does a non-destructive workflow?

  Hi Guido,

  It is non-destructive that your original file is never modified, and you can always return to the original with no adjustment.

  Consider mounting a JPG in Photoshop and make several changes. Once you save the file in JPG format, all changes are "cooked" in the file. It's destructive, because you can never go back to the original file. With Lightroom, because changes are saved as XMP metadata in a list (which you see in the history), the unchanged original file is maintained and the changes are applied only to Lightroom, print preview and exported files. You still have the original intact and available.

  Power go back in history and insert a change while keeping everything afterwards is another matter. Lightroom can do that (although if you know what you wanted to change, you could always add later, if you knew exactly what are the parameters to be set.) No need to go back in the history, just don't make the change as you go.

• Non-destructive editing and Add-ons

  I'm about to purchase LR for the first time. Am I right in thinking that all the settings made in the image in LR are either stored in the raw file or a file and subsequently can be selectively modified? That is in a manner similar to the way NX2 works.

  So I wonder how the modules such as OnOne Nik and above all perfectly clear, fits into that. The worst change to an add-on stored in the raw file as a new layer which at least, you can delete and start over? What is better than that?

  I note that 10 OnOne speaks of " " " manage and edit your photos with Smart Photo non-destructive technology ' (ah, that seems to work with Photoshop only instead of LR)

  Well well, the way you describe things, I don't think you got it right.

  Thus, change in Lightroom, send a TIF to Nik to have more editing and then it comes back TIF + Nik publishes to Lightroom. At this point, you can continue to edit the TIF + Nik changes in Lightroom, you lose nothing, you do not lose the previous changes of LR and you do not lose the changes of the Nik and you are able to add additional changes to LR on top of your previous of the LR changes and the changes of the Nik nothing is lost.

  What you can't do, is back in the chain... If you return to your original LR changes (before you sent the photo to Nik) and make changes more, the TIF does not, does not change the TIF + Nik changes and changes in LR TIF + Nik publishes + additional does not change. Similarly, if you go back to Nik and make changes more in the TIF, then the pictures in LR do not change.

• Items 9, no non-destructive?

  I use the trial version of Photoshop Elements 9. Mac OS X 10.5.8. I imported a few pictures test from a folder in the Organizer. I flip the photo and items turned the real photo! I can't cancel it! I check the file Finder, and it is always running. Now I never use the items before, but I have Lightroom. In Lightroom, all is non-destructive. Why does not the case with the elements? Isn't this dangerous, the fact that the elements addressing non initiated people? Another program like iPhoto and Picasa photo organizer are not destructive. Am I missing something?

  Oh and I press the Auto-fix, tried to cancel it, elements gave me an error saying: it is not possible to cancel. ????

  Has never been "non-destructive" elements, it is therefore not surprising that PSE9 is "destructive." (And just for the record, I really hate these terms)

  However, in the simple case of rotation, it is possible to do it in a way without loss, where there is no loss due to JPG compression. I don't know if that's what happened when you tried to turn, but it wouldn't surprise me. And if that's what happened (lossless rotation), then the absence of warning wouldn't surprise me either.

• Bookmarks completely non functional even after reinstalling Firefox.

  Once more bookmarks became completely non-functional. I tried all the solutions mentioned in the Support site and nothing works. I tried to use Windows restore to a date before the problem occurred. I even tried uninstalling completely and reinstalling Firefox and the problem persists, do not display the same default bookmarks. Import from Internet Explorer does not work even though Firefox says it has. Can anyone provide an answer or I'll have to go back to the use of Internet Explorer which I didn't for years.

• How would you like non-destructive change the color of some pixels depends only on their RGB value?

  How would you like non-destructive change the color of some pixels depends only on their current color?

  Constraints: the goal is to avoid having to select with the lasso tool or any other tool. I'm talking about adjustment layers here, who would not need to select parts of the first image.

  The input image has only a haldful of discrete colors: it is made of, say, about 10 areas with 10 different colors, alias 10 different RGB values.
  

  The goal is to find a way to organize the adjustment layers and only pixels with given RGB value (for example) blue, while some other pixels with another RGB value data become red, etc. ?

  I will then apply these to each image adjustment layers in an animation, to selectively change the colors.

  If I understand you correctly, "Mix" so should work.

  Here, you can target specific values/ranges in each channel, for the underlying layer and current standards.

  

• Can you move a file from one folder to another without losing the non-destructive updates

  Hi my hard drive is organized so that each of the topics, for example Le Mans 2006, takes place in a separate folder, with a number of subfolders, as negative that hold my files raw which are never affected, in turn, processed, etc. Twenty top. So I move my files from subfolders. When I try to do that in LR, I get a warning message that seems to say that if I move the file I lose the details of non-destructive changes. If this is true then I can see LR add to my workflow, not improving it. Is it possible to get a shift of folder in the catalog without losing data?

  Hi ovonel

  You will lose not no editing, as you did on the picture when you move the File.You can always undo any changes made to your image (non-destructive editing) in the history panel in the develop module. The content of your Raw file is not affected.

  The warning below is just saying that Ctrl (command) + Z will not void. . It moves the file to the original location too. (of course, you can move the file back to the previous location)

  

  Hope that helps

• Non Destructive fades in Mode Waveform hearing

  Hello!

  I would like to ask if there is a way to make non-destructive fades in hearing in waveform mode. I found that there are mainly two ways audio melted (manipulators in the editor or by using the effect of bland envelope). If I use one of these methods in waveform mode, they seem to be destructive. The only way I knew to apply no destructive bland is in multitrack mode, using manipulators in the Editor window. The problem with doing it this way, is that I don't get the big Visual return on the waveform.

  Thank you if you have any ideas of a ton.

  Waveform is intended to be destructive - in the same way that isn't multitrack. That's the way it works, I'm afraid. There's no way around it.

• Method of non-destructive editing clips?

  Is there a non-destructive way to edit clips? I create a multi camera edit, and 2 different but synchronized audio channels. What I've been doing so far is simply using the cutting tool for removal of sections of the timeline to show or hide a view of cameras. Already it has resulted in a big mistake, when I accidentally cut video I wanted to keep.

  Seems to me that there must be a better way. You can simply hide the sections of video / audio to achieve the same effect without remove them permanently from your timeline?

  Thanks in advance.

  With the help of first CC pro.

  Organization is non-destructive. That is permanent and not affect the source element.

  You can fix any "error / error/fault of decision" in the sequence by various means.

  For example, drag the ends of the clips to decrease and increase a "gap".

• Background image of the non-destructive text in InDesign

  I do not experience this problem a lot, but I'm looking for a non-destructive way to drop images into text. I know that I can describe the text and then place an image, but while I work through various titles in a document, I hope that I can easily go back in the document and change the text later.

  (to help visualize)

  you use a background texture on your cover

  you want to open the booklet and have this texture in one background of fat (universe-ultra condensed) for the main titles and other titles later in the booklet

  How can you do this, but allow easy edits if the titles change later in the approval process?

  Thank you!

• Cutting of non-destructive text

  I tried to find a non-destructive way of cutting a picture text and resulted in nothing.

  

  The only way I was able to create the effect is by deleting a selection of the text layer of the image which is not something that I can then change in the future.

  Tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  OK, I remembered something.  It has nothing to do with the clipping mask.  It's all about Knockout.

  Place your layer of text on the chart, then open the layer Style and select the merge at the top Options on the left.  Now called the Knockout pretty deep...

• Mirroring with non-destructive outline

  I am trying to achieve...

  

  .. .but with appearances, so that I can always change the graphic later, to say that if I wanted to do something like this (alt + click - move to dupe an item within the Group)...

  (desired mode traced result)

  Someone knows how to do this in a non-destructive way, so that I don't have to recreate the black outline around all of this, every time I want to make a change?

  To do now:

  1. Create the two square, group them and create an appearance (fx > transform) to account for x with a copy (mirroring the object on the left side).
  2. Expand the appearance.
  3. Copy all stick behind, add the paths and add the black line.

  Makes me what I want to see, but it's a pain in the neck for edit/edit/Polish. I want to get the run around these two objects in the Group and still be able to non-destructively (i.e. do not expand appearance) change the group with update of the race and thinking. Can it be done? Without a script?

  See you soon,.
