• Can I transfer files and settings using easy transfer to a PC with an XP 32 bit system to a PC with 64-bit of Windows 8. I need to load software on the XP PC?

  I'm helping a friend transfer files from laptop running Windows XP 32 bit on a desktop running Windows 8 64-bit PC.  I want to be sure easy transfer will work.

  The use of a USB stick to transfer files works if you have only a few gigabytes of Documents, pictures, music and videos. Assuming that the old computer supports usb 2.0 (if it is longer than 5 years, she probably only support usb 1.0) over a network connection 100 Mbps local, there is no contest, the connection to the local network is much faster. Unless you really know what you're doing isn't the best advice. Do you know how to transfer your settings to internet explore (i.e. Favorites), passwords, certificates, outlook, etc. etc. ? The best solution is to use the windows easy transfer program, it's free! Download you the old machine (XP or Vista), race a category 5 (lan cable) cable to one of the unused router ports (Verizon, Comcast, Linksys, etc.). Turn on the old and the new. In the old computer, open the transfer program that you downloaded for free from Microsoft or the internet;  If the new computer is w7 and w8, the transfer is already installed; Open easy transfer in both computers, and then follow the prompts.  Start with your old computer, follow the instructions, it is not any easier than this. It gives you the choice of what you want to transfer and which solves a lot of problems. It is so easy to use that it is almost ridiculous. A word of warning does that move from a 32-bit to a 64-bit program, it works!

• How can I transfer files from my old pc sony Vista for my laptop new HP 17-j003

  How can I transfer files from my old sony pc running vista for my laptop new HP 17-j003 Windows 8

  Welcome to the HP, Roodie forum.

  There is an easy way to do it using Microsoft Windows Easy Transfer :

  Transfer files and settings from another PC

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  If you do not want to transfer files using the easy transfer method, you can manually make the copy.

  1. You can connect the systems on the same network,
  2. Define the folders that contain your data transfer to 'Share' on the network
  3. Map the drive on your new Vista computer system network
  4. Copy the data you want to transfer

  On the Vista Machine:

  • Open a Windows Explorer window,
  • Right click on the folder that contains the data you want to 'share' (transfer)
  • Click Properties > share > share and follow the instructions to allow the folder to be shared on the network

  On the Machine Windows 8:

  • Windows key (opens the start screen) > anywhere type 'computer' >
  • Click on "computer" to open the "Computer" File Explorer window >
  • Click map network drive and follow the instructions to map the drive

  Don't forget: If your account name is different on the Vista computer, you will need to click on "Sign in using different credentials" and then enter the name of the account on the Vista computer AND the password for this account.

  You can do this with the upper or lower level folders folder level - as long as the folder is shared, you should have general access to the data it contains.

  There are cases where you will not end up being "owner" of the data transferred - you will have to perhaps enter and adjust the property for files / folders after they are copied to the computer of Windows 8.

  I do not know. The answer depends on what's wrong with the old.

  Can I do this using a USB Flash drive?

  # If you can not start the old laptop, you cannot transfer files from it
  to the USB.

  If the problem with the old laptop isn't that hard drive has
  has failed (and that's a big 'if'), you can pull the hard drive.
  and get an external USB enclosure. Having done this, you can read
  It is on the new laptop and copy files from it.

• transfer files from your old computer with video card damaged to new computer

  my old computers video card is damaged can not read anything on the monitor. I want to transfer files to my laptop. Old computer has windows xp new computer has windows vista. I can do this with just an easy transfer cable?

  Hello

  Put the hard drive from the old computer in the new computer as a 2nd drive. Or turn the player
  in an external USB enclosure. Or the other must allow you to access the files.

  I hope this helps.

• Windows Easy Transfer will not work for me between my old laptop with Windows XP and my new laptop with Windows 7.

  I am trying to transfer my files to my new laptop with Windows 7 for my old laptop with Windows XP Professional, using the Windows Easy Transfer, that I found on my old laptop.   I tried to make the transfer through my home wireless network and when that did not work...  I connected the two laptops with a cable (the same style of cable, used to connect his computer to a modem or router, not a cable SSB).

  So in summary, I just want to transfer all my files from my old laptop to my new laptop.   I copied the master file of my data from my old laptop on a "stick" assuming that I could download just to stick to the new laptop.  (I have a lot of "sticks" here.)   The idea did not work, of course, results otherwise wouldn't ask this question now.

  If you had previously copied simply data (documents folders) via a key files should be no problem during the copying of that stick to the library on win7 locations, and is there's this which is exactly the err MSG?

• How can I create a new admin user and transfer my old files?

  Hello

  I want to create a new account administrator user on my imac and transfer all my old files.

  Why? I have problems with adobe lightroom. I can't move the files from one folder to another; After a chat session of three hours with support from adobe, they discovered is not the lightroom catalog that causes the problem, the preferences file, nor permissions user/disc; so it's probably a problem with the user account is corrupted. They tried with a new test account and everything worked fine. So they suggested, I create a new user account and transfer my files.

  I read on this forum that move all the files from one user account to another, means you also move the files at the root of the problem. So before you do anything: what are the thoughts of the community here on the suggestion of the adobe support the people, and if this is the right way to go, how should I go about this?

  System: imac 2.7 Ghz intel Core i5, 16 Gb 1600 Mhz DDR3, Mavericks 10.9.5, Lightroom 6.4

  THX in advance

  Robin

  Open the preferences users and groups. Click on the padlock icon in the lower left corner. Enter your administrator password when prompted. Click on the [+] add at the bottom of the list of current users to create a new account. You can set the account to an admin account by selecting the new account administrator: drop-down menu. Set up as a result. However, you can't use the same user name, in order to transfer your data presents a problem with permissions. See the following article: transfer of files from one user to another account. Once you get set up in the new account, you can delete the old.

  You shouldn't have a problem to transfer files of key records in your file. Just do not transfer anything from the folder/Home/Library/because that's probably where the shoe pinches.

  Turn on the guy.
  You have installed MS Works. This is not the same thing as MS Excel.
  I didn t try to open excel with MS works files, but it seems that it s is not possible!
  The excel files must be saved in Microsoft Works format, if you want to open with work!

  Install Excel if you want to open and use files other people Excel.
