  I want to move my hard drive from a computer with a motherboard dead to a newer machine.  The activation process failed.  How can I get the operating system XP Professional sp3 reactive?  I have the code original and other info.

  original title: Moving the death machine drive

  Hello CarrolScott,

  The activation problem arose because the hardware on your current computer does not match that of the hardware on the machine whose mother is dead.

  The best option for the reactivation is to use the telephone line. This, unfortunately, is automated and may refuse to turn on your system; However, don't despair just rest on the line after the automated atcivation crossed its procedure and you will be transferred to a real person. Tell this person you've done, and it should be able to help activate.

• What is the best way to destroy a hard drive before discarding a computer?

  I want to protect my personal information when I have an old computer. Should I use a program to erase all data, and if so, which programs are the best. Should I also drill three holes in the hard drive? Is it effective? What are the best things to do? In addition, can I still recycle it? Please notify.

  Thanks in advance for your answer.

  Three holes make it almost impossible to restore (law enforcement/Govt can)

• What is the best way to transfer pictures from an old computer to a flash drive or a drive back then to a new computer?

  What is the best way to transfer pictures from an old computer to a flash drive or a drive back then to a new computer?

  The easiest and most reliable I've found is to make the direct drag-and-drop method.

  (1) on the old computer, open your Windows Explorer and go to your photos.

  (2) open another Windows Explorer window and access your 'Computer' folder and in your flash drive

  (3) drag the photos to the flash drive.

  (4) take the flash drive on the new computer and drag them into your images folder

• What is the best way to transfer the file to a new larger internal drive?

  I am running win 7 ultimate.  I had two hard drives of 500 GB.  C is partitioned to 120 GB (not enough) I just installed a 1.5 terabyte drive.  What is the best way to transfer my data? I would keep the 500 GB (now C: and D :) and add the 1.5 to, I also have a 2 external to that I tried to move my libraries at, but I'm confused my system.)  I don't know much about indexing or mapping.

  \

  Consider transferring all the files that are currently in the second partition of 500 GB drive that is hosting the C: drive (you have referred to as D :) on the new drive.

  Once you have done this, you can then delete the D: partition since this 1 hard drive. This would then extend the C: drive to actually use all the 500 GB drive. Finally change the drive letter for the 1.5 terabyte disk d: it in disk management ( Diskmgmt.mscRun)

  So in the end you have a 500 GB C drive and a 1.5 TB drive D.

  When it comes to move libraries Windows has a utility to do it for you. If you click on your username at the top right of the menu start all your user profile directories are displayed. If you right-click on each one and select Properties, those that support this feature will have a tab 'location '. In this tab, it displays the current location of the file, but has a button "move". You move the folder and all its files and subfolders in a new location and update the references, the system uses for this folder.

  So if you created a folder on the D drive say 'Juli-year' and you right-click on Favorites, some properties, then on location you can move this summary folder in C:\Users\username\Favourites to D:\Juli-An\Favourites. Not all folders in the user profile supports this but all the c library files and a few others.

  Of course if you did as I suggested and ended with a 500 GB C drive you may need.

• What is the best way to "clean up/free space" on my computer? Thank you

  What is the best way to clean/free up space on my computer?  Even do not know where to look to see how much space I use... Thank you.

  A loss of main surface within each user profile would be penchant of EI for the storage of copies (or much) of almost every web page, your friend has already visited.  Try to reduce the amount of temporary Internet files put in cache, which is huge by default.  I always bring it back to a maximum of 50 MB.  In Internet Explorer, click on tools > Internet Options > general, temporary files > settings.

  Same principle for the Java cache. Start > Control Panel > Java > temporary Internet files > settings.

  The System Volume Information is the folder in restoration of which WinXP system feature stores information to retrieve errors.  By default, Windows XP sets aside a maximum of 12% of the size of the partition to store the information of the System Volume, but the amount of space reserved for this purpose can be adjusted by the user.  Start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > System Restore Settings, select the relevant partition and click settings.  If you don't want to use the system at all, restore simply to turn off System Restore (start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system, System Restore settings restore) and restart.  This will remove all your Restore Points, thus freeing up hard disk space.

  An another great space waster may be trash.  By default, it takes up to 10% of the capacity of your hard drive. On today's big hard disks, it's a lot of waste.  It can be set to a lower limit by right clicking the desktop Receycle Bin icon, select Properties, and using the scroll bar to reduce the maximum size to something more reasonable - 1% to 2% should be more than enough space.

• Just bought a new Apple computer. What is the best way to transfer the CS6 and Lightroom

  Just bought a new Apple computer. What is the best way to transer CS6 and Lightroom? Both applications have been updated. Should I reinstall it on the Adobe site?

  first of all, if you're going to retire this old computer or, at least, no longer use your adobe on this old computer programs, open and click Help > deactivate.

  then install your files to your new computer and activate.  If you already have an installation cd, you don't need to download.  If you don't have the installation files, download the trial and activate it with your order number.

• What is the best way to share a project hearing and/or creation with other users of adobe on other devices?

  I'm not a professional and I am very new to adobe, but I'm working on group projects with other people and they asked that instead of export of audio and video files, hearing, or first, I actually just give them the project so they ca works on it, as well in case any changes need to be made.

  Is it possible to share the concrete projects (not exports) WITH all the video and audio still in place with other people on other computers? If Yes, what is the best way to do this?

  Thank you very much in advance, even if it's completely impossible.
