we are thinking about getting a new computer, i think a dell. we want to transfer all the files and the settings just like we have them. how does one go about dong this. i know that it is possible but i am ignorant to the process. can anyone help???
well, transferring your data and transferring that and your settings are different. data, such as music, letters, video, pictures can burn to disk or copy/move to external drive. installed applications won't go, you'll have to reinstall from disk or download. on the other hand, you can transfer settings, favorites etc. use files and settings transfer wizard. or laplink software and cable.
Try to xcopy the data over to the external drive.



start>run>type "cmd">hit ok  

In dos window type "xcopy /?" this will show you all of the parameters or switchs used in xcopy.



If you are not famaliar with dos you may want to seek out a friend who is. If your intent is to move a file from one iSeries (or System i) to another iSeries/System i then I’m not sure why you are going through the intermediate step of a text file. But in any case, if you have TCP/IP up between the two systems then FTP is the way to go.


If you just want the data, ftp the file.


If you want the database:  

Create a save file on the source system  

Save the database to the save file  

Create a save file on the target system  

FTP the save file to the target system in binary mode  

Restore the database on the target system


If you’re not familiar with FTP let us know. We can guide you through the steps (there aren’t many). If you don’t have TCP/IP between the two systems, let us know what options you do have in transferring data between the two systems (SNA, tape, etc).


Bruce Vining if it’s a 3.0 plan you will be able to transfer that plan to the new sim/phone (if your currently on the gsm partner all you really need to do is punch out the smaller sim from your current sim (or use an adapter if moving to a phone with a larger sim but do note this is only for the gsm based netw… Windows 7 can be configured as both host and client for the printer sharing. I assume that you want to use your Windows 7 for the client printing connection.   
  
Here are some of the steps to make the connection from Windows 7 as a printer.   
  
1. Click on start button and go to control panel.   
2. Go to network and sharing center.   
3. Go to Change Advanced Sharing Settings.   
4. Find out the home or the private network under which this computer has access to other computers.   
5. Click on the network with which you want to share printer as a host or client.   
6. Find the option for printer sharing in settings.   
7. Turn on the option "File and Printer Sharing".   
8. Save the changes.   
9. Reboot the system.   
  
This takes few seconds usually but some of the time reboot is required if the network is not properly detected. So you have to go through the above steps unless proper network is established.   
  
If it is asking for username and password for the public network, then you have to provide if it was set during the home or private network sharing options. If it is not set, then you have to reset the network sharing options at host and then reconnect your client machine for printer sharing. 1.   Yes, Elements 11 should work on a new Win 10 machine, assuming you have your serial number available.


 


2.  If and when you decide to upgrade, you can convert your Elements 11 catalog to the newer version and all of your Tags, Albums etc. will convert also.  (There may be some file creations [with a .pse file extension] that won't convert because the feature no longer exists.  I couldn't tell you which ones right now.)


 


3.  Since you are transferring your media drive to the new computer (and presumably maintaining the same drive letter as the Win 7 computer), it may be possible to simply copy the catalog folder to the new computer.  However, this may not work if you are using a Win 7 My Pictures system folder, because I believe there is a different naming convention in Win 10.  But it may be worth trying first before going to the bother of a Restore of the catalog.  And if you do a restore to the Original position, I'm not sure whether the files will be overwritten or skipped. you need to change the boot order so it checks the HDD before the floppy, cdrom etc...



btw a new pc means you will have to reinstall windows nothing missing - just different:

1.  transfers are still linked.  enter one side of the transfer and in the category drop-down, select transfer > [other account].  changing either of the two entries modifies the other.

2.  multiple registers at the same time.  you can have every register open at once in its own window.  only one register at a time shows in the main window.  just double-click the account in the left panel to open a floating register window.

3.  move transactions between accounts.  with both registers displayed, drag the transaction from one to the other.  if it is a downloaded transaction, you'll get a warning.  you cannot, however, move transactions between investment accounts. that is where i'd start as well. osi...
so:
1. physical link (maybe check the patch panel and the cabling that's involved in connecting to the computer, maybe swap cables and try a usb to ethernet adapter to rules the nic out.
2. data link - check the switches and switchports on the way. maybe try to use different portts
3. network - most likely not an issue if all the other computers are working fine...
etc.
but this is pretty much it: Is there any method or ways you can tell me to recover my files.. please!! : (( it matters a lot... Hello, if you can get into your display settings, you should be able to set up the external monitor as the primary monitor, and save the new setting (so you don't need to reestablish this each time).
