Transfer files FROM Mac TO Windows?
I need to be able to back up and move files from my Mac to my machine to Windows platform. My Seagate external drive is no longer recognizable on the Mac, and it was never recognized by the Windows machine.
What is the best and most effective way to transfer all my files?
Before the upgrade on my Mac for 10.11.4 Dropbox worked and had files it contains. There are more files and I'm scared to use it as a backup or transfer.
If I switch from Windows to Mac, I expect to find answers and suggestions to the Mac community.
I expect the best methods from Mac to Windows is located in the community of Windows. People here tend not to go in that direction.

How to transfer files from an old windows XP computer to a new computer windows 7?
Two computers work but when I connect them with an ethernet cable, they recognize each other. I also tried connecting them through my home wireless network, but they have not yet recognized each other.
Hello
To connect two computers with a cable, not a router, it must be a crossover cable.
These are special cables, but they are not expensive.Connect two computers using a crossover cable (XP - Windows 7 may be the same)

ANIMATE EDGE: Files from MAC to WINDOWS
How to open the source files models animate Web sites created using edge in windows? since they are probably mac!
When I unzip the files, it says that the file already exists for some files, like images etc. amd late charge only two files named
__MACOSX and
978-1-4302-4350_SourceCode_ch01
When I try to load it directly from lively edge, nothing appears, for the zipped folder as well as the unzipeed one.
Thank you
Download page link for the source of the example site:
http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/edge-animate/articles/showcase-sample-files.html
As test, you can download this simple project file, unzip it and double-click the .one file? I would like to know what is happening?
You are using the latest version of edge animate? What does say on the splash screen when you first launch it?
Another way to open a project should simply open edge animate; go to file > open and navigate to the source .html or .a file to open it. Have you tried this method with any of the files you noted above?
Another scenerio may be related to Windows user accounts? You are an authority for the two machines you mention? You don't have administrator rights to run the associative files. One solution is to right-click on a project .an file, and in the list of context menu, there should be an option to run as administrator? Try this option.
Last resort - uninstall computer and reinstall from your cloud of Creative Adobe free.
Hope some of these help

How can I move files from Mac to Windows?
I don't know that I write in the right place. I have a file on my desktop iMac I want to move to the folder My Documents in my VM.

I tried to figure this out for about 3 days. If someone could tell me how to do this, I would be very happy. Thank you

Some clarification would be useful.

The easiest way might use dropbox or onedrive. Or you want to change the file on the iPad?

I installed Win7 on my computer by using 'Custom Installation', as I was advised to do. The data from my old hard drive was stored on drive C under the name of the folder "Windows-old".
I have problems using Windows easy transfer. It does not give me the option to transfer files from a folder on the C drive in places where I can use it for example. Word (I installed Office 2013 Home Premium).
I copied the entire "My Documents" to a flash drive, but cannot transfer data from there either.
I also installed Windows Live Mail. I can receive and send emails, but can not access my old address book/contacts list.Any help/advice would be much appreciated!
Original title: XP Win7 upgrade
You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

Transfer files from UNIX server to the Windows server access path
Hello Experts, (Gud Gud same backward and Gud Mor)
Is there a way to transfer files from UNIX (Oracle database) server, to Windows server? AFAIK if path of Windows. I am able to read the file because it is on the server, but it does not recognize the Windows directory at all.
If you can share documents around this study, I will be grateful.
Kind regardsYou can download this PL/SQL package to FTP in PL/SQL. It is old, but still needs to do the job. Do not forget that in 11g, an ACL must be created to allow the code to access the network.
An alternative is to a Unix script ftp script and run (as an external process) using DBMS_SCHEDULER.
