  • Transfer all of the data files and program from old computer (Vista) to new computer (Windows 7)

    I've been using a Dell xps 420, 32-bit Vista since 2008. I just bought a new Dell xps-8700, 64-bit with windows 7 preinstalled. I would like to transfer all THE DATA, SETTINGS AND PROGRAMS from my old computer to the new computer. I bought a cable easy transfer of Dell for windows, xp, vista, windows 7 and 8. I read somewhere that the method of cable will transfer all my installed programs. Is this true?

    Can someone give me the better, easier and faster method available. At least give me a step by step procedure for this task.

    I am 81 years old and not too computer savvy. Any help you can give will BE appreciated.   bobnancy

    No, it won't, it will transfer personal files and settings. You will have to reinstall your applications from the original installation files or install CDs and DVDs.

    If you really want to move your applications to the Vista computer, you will need to buy a commercial programs such as Laplink PC Mover that will allow you to move your programs:

  • has got the biggest hard drive, can I transfer old install to the new drive?

    C: space too small

    My Windows XP Professional is installed on a 10 GB hard drive, there is little room left. I added an external drive more and would like to move the system to the largest disk. I don't have a installation disc. Can I transfer the system and applications to the new drive without losing any functionality and maybe use the old drive (C :) to store data.

    Its not so easy.  It is best to get rid of some of the files on the old drive and move the data files to the new drive.  Try to go first to start | Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Disk Cleanup.  Then you can move locations of various data, such as temporary Internet files (in Internet Explorer go to tools |) Internet Options | Settings and click the folder to move and which will move this place).  If you use OE, first back up your messages (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6) and then put in place a new directory on the new drive to something like D:\OESTORE and then go to tools | Options | Advanced | Maintenance | Store the folder and click the button change and set it as the new location.  Then close and reopen OE (DO NOT MOVE MESSAGES yourself! as he will destroy them) and the location must be moved.

    For other space saver, try to do a backup on the new disk directory and copy all update backups that were made (the Blues subdirectories in the Windows directory) and the Windows\inf directory that you can completely roll over to the new drive for backup purposes and you may need to browse to it, if you install a new device , but which will save a lot of space. (the above two suggestions require that you go to control panel |) Folder options | View and activate display files and hidden folders, enable showing protected and OS files and disable the option Hide extensions of known file types).  Move also on other data such as images, documents, music to the new drive.

    So if you have lots of space on C, defrag it.

    But just copy through the old drive to the new and try to start on the new one is unlikely to work.

  • Smartphones blackBerry how to transfer all the data from my BlackBerry/Outlook to new computer

    Nice day

    I am currently using a Torch 9800 on my old Dell using Microsoft Outlook 2003.  I just bought a new Dell computer and installed Microsoft Office 2010 with Outlook.  I would like to transfer all my data from my BlackBerry Torch / Outlook to my new computer.

    Can I install BlackBerry desktop on my new computer and just sync with my flashlight or do I make a back-up to my old computer and restore the backup file to my new computer?

    Thank you.

    It depends on what everything you want moved. You can google for more information about how to transfer all your Outlook, including mail settings and all of your PIM data.

    If it's just the calendar, tasks and address book data, then if your BB has everything you want on it, then you can install BDS on the new computer and set up a synchronization one-way system your BB to Outlook to transfer everything in the new perspective. Once it is on both devices settings of two-way synchronization.

    I would like to make a backup of your BB before you do any synchronization to a new computer, just in case where you screw up the sync and removes the BB PIM data.

  • transfer all the files from a hard drive to new Hardrive with windows and office suit

    I tried to transer all my programs files again hardrive but without success using easy to migrate acornis.

    Will I need to reinstall Office

    Depends on if you have followed the instructions, immediately after the migration/clone that you will need to shut down the pc, replace the old disk with the new (leave the old disconnected) then restart. Assuming that all is OK, you then stop and connect the origonal HD as a slave, before the abolition of its partitions and then create a new.

    Office "may" need to be repaired, to a certain extent depends on the version.

  • Can't receive mail from Hotmail account using the phone or windows live mail

    Hello

    I'm having a problem where I get a sign in error whenever I try to access my Hotmail account using my smartphone or windows live mail.

    I CAN however use my web browser to connect and access the account in this way.

    I tried using 2 different laptops (windows 7 on both) and my android phone.

    I have reset the password twice and still have no chance to access the account outside the approach of above web browser.

    It seems that this problem has affected my direct mail phone and windows at the same time, and I am at a loss for a line of conduct.

    Does anyone have a solution?

    Thanks in advance

    It seems that if you have activated the two-step verification when you changed your
    password. If you did, you can not use this password to authenticate in stupid
    programs like Windows Live Mail which cannot ask or submit to security codes. You
    need to generate a unique password app to use in situations like this.

  • Transfer of existing credit from the classic to the new Preview of Skype Skype

    I just converted the classic Skype to Skype overview, but the credit I had on the classic Skype has not been transferred even if I have the same profile and account. Can someone tell me how I can get the credit transferred through?

    Any client you use, desktop, preview, web, PC, mobile or any other form, when you buy Skype credit, you purchase for your account, not the device, so your credit will be the same on the desktop as the preview of Skype program.

    No need to "Convert" you can always use the desktop version if you wish (in fact, I prefer the preview) and although they cannot be open at the same time, you can easily launch the desktop version and sign in and perhaps check your credit again.

    Are you sure that you have not signed for another account by mistake to 100%, are all your messages and contacts appear?

    To check your credits in the preview, click on your image has everything down to the left of the preview and if doubts, check your account

    Hi Fouad_solo,

  • I tried to install CS3 with a serial number from my old computer to my new windows 7.  I tried installing and uninstalling. I've been on the cat

    I've been tryig to install CS3 with a serial number from my old computer to my new computer windows 7.  I have installed and reinstalled and rebooted the computer, takes off firewall and everything I know to do.  I was chatting to Adobe several times during the day and nobody seems to be able to help me refocus on my computer. This is the message I get when I put in place: you can only install a single Adobe product at a time.  Please fill out the other installation before installing Adobe CS 3.  I had a computer specialist to analyze it and try to help me, even the screen sharing and could not understand it.  He told me to call Adobe and as you know there is no one to help you live that can be very frustrating when you've spent the day and exhausted all options.  I know it worked on my computer and the fact yet but I use is more than one.  Can you or someone from Adobe please fix this.
