• Transfer data to the new computer.

  My old mother card computer went bad, but the hard drive is OK.  How can I transfer files and setting from the old hard drive to the new computer.  Both are running Windows 7.  I installed the old hard drive in the new computer.

  Hi JohnWise1943,

  If the hard disk is installed on the same computer, you can use the hard drive as a second partition to access the files.

  You can also visit this link and ignore the title and return Let me fixit myself and instead of locating the folder Windows.old, you can use the same method and transfer files from an old to a new hard drive.

• How can I prevent Windows Update to write data to my external HARD drive

  I have Windows XP running on a controller NI PXI-8106. On this same controller, I have two mapped drives.
  1 C drive where Windows is installed
  2-external SATA drive mounted in RAID0 used to save sensitive data in our application.

  We discovered that Windows update has written files to disk external DRIVE instead of the local drive as we would expected. What could I do to prevent this. It is very important for us, given that the RAID0 data should not be upset by any means. We cannot update Windows to write outside of the C: drive.

  I look on various forums and it seems that I'm not the only one in this situation where Windows Update writes data to an external HARD drive, but I have not seen anywhere a solution to avoid this, in addition to unmaping the drive.

  During the installation of updates, Windows Update downloads the installers (only) for updates to the drive with free space available. You can either disconnect the external drive when you need and/or free up space on, for example, your boot drive.

• How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

  Keep all image files both places?

  What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

  Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

  As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

  As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

  Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

  question: How can I open CS5.5 after the migration to the new computer laptop w / Mac OS 10.8.4? I got a dialog box indicating that I had to run Java SE runtime (or something to that effect), when I approved it, then try opening cs5.5 Indesign, the program closed unexpectedly at startup. If I uninstall program & reinstall, my documents will be free, or are they toast? Help!

  Hi rabbit Art,.

  Migration from one machine to the other problem most of the time. So I recommend you to reinstall the software. Concern is that none of your documents will be made.

• What is the best way to transfer files to an external hard drive?

  I would like to clean my laptop occasionally so that the hard disk gets more than half full, because I run a large number of graphics and good programs, my fan has some mental problems then he goes crazy. The problem now is that my external hard drive is that of 500 GB and now it's almost half full. I tried to use the files zipped, but honestly, there's just a huge amount of time to compress something (which by the way, why windows excludes a zipped folder more?) and the file gets that much smaller. Should I use another form of compression program?
  A Briefcase is not a substitute for a zipped folder?
  Thank you

  ". . . I can't even afford a good 1 TB hard drive. »

  Whenever you are able to buy another external drive, get not necessarily the least expensive (unless it's a more expensive player for sale). If these backups are valuable to you, go the extra cost of a high quality unit.

  It seems that you pretty much a backup solution, you're just trying to reduce the time it takes. I understand perfectly with having six physical computers, but four of them use SyncToy to keep the two main desktop computers in sync so I only have two I actually backup; I picture all six, but much less frequent that my backups (copies).

  If you try to compress large video files (of the order of GB), I can see where this would be extremely slow and compress probably not as much as you said. In the past, I use to make a copy of zip each of my web sites periodically to check them with one of the order of 1 GB, which took forever.

• Transfer photos to an external hard drive in 11 days?

  Hey guys,.

  I just bought an external hard drive of 1 TB (Toshiba Canvio Basics) with a USB 3.0 cable and transfer the photos from library Photos takes long time. There are about 65 GB of photos and videos.  There is an estimate of 6 days for photos at the end of transfer on my first try. I left after 5 minutes because I thought that maybe I don't plug it right.  On my 2nd try, he gave me an estimate 1 day, I left who once again in 5 minutes. On my third try, I change usb ports and it gave me an estimate 11 days to get it to transfer. I have a MacBook Pro 2012, if that helps. Is this normal? or something is wrong with my Macbook or my new external hard drive?  How can I improve the transfer speed? Any help would be great. Thank you very much.

  Two things:

  What format is this player? How are you connected to it?

  In addition, the Finder is a liar. He considers all sorts of things, but the estimate changes, 65 tis can take a few hours, but it will take more than that.

• reloading the files of the external hard drive to the new computer laptop

  I'm trying to reloaded files etc. from an external hard drive to my laptop. I took the files of my old office that was on is way out, so just in case I lost them all I copied them. I tried setting up my external hard drive and transfer just a couple of files just to see if it would work. I sent them to my desktop from my laptop and they also went to my documents, but once the hard drive is disconnected files will not open. I do not know what I'm dong wrong as I am not very computor spirit, so that the answers would be useful in silly English thank you. Sorry to be so long-winded.

  Hello @shedeval

  I understand that you have copied your files on an external drive from your old computer.

  You tried to copy the files to the new computer, but when you disconnect the external hard drive the files are no longer accessible.

  I think that you have created or copied a shortcut to the new computer and not the actual files.  When you're logged out outside the new computer had more disk access to open files.

  I would like to redo the copy and when you finished externally, log out and then try again.

  Good luck!
