After win 10 upgrade what to do with win 7 free upgrade disk

Is the windows 7 free upgrade that i got when i bought my l305-s5946 somehow linked with the windows 10 upgrade, or can i use it to upgrade a different toshiba laptop from vista to win 7 with out any problem.any info on this would be helpful. I bought a fixerupper laptop (same model), bought the vista recovery disks and was told that the free win 7 upgrade for that model was no longer available, so, i would realy like to upgrade it to win 7 if possible, with the upgrade that i already have that is not being used now.thanks

Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive. Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth) around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.
Ciao.

Help - How to install Win XP in dual boot with Win 7 (first installed)?

Hi everybody!
I'm having some difficult in install a win xp in dual boot with win 7 (which came with the G550 notebook).
I modified the D: (Lenovo) partition to a primary partition to install the XP. Also I installed the EasyBCD to manange the boots and both S.O. load fine.
The problem is that Win XP is seeing a partition (the first partition on disk) with 200MB that is hidden for Win 7 ! So this partition takes the C: letter in XP and mess all the configuration once that many programs uses the C: as a default letter.
The disk is divided in (aprox):
200 MB hidden partition (from factory)
160GB with Win 7 installed
40GB with Win XP installed
19GB hidden partition (Recovery - from factory)
Is anyone has some idea who to solve this problem or make install XP from the beginning without problems?
Thank a lot!

You need to re install OSX. If you have the dmg file downloaded via torrentz this is how you can create a bootable external HD or Flash drive (8 GB+)

Itunes won't synch when I plug in ipod. I have Win 8. It worked with Win 7

It worked when I had Win 7. The music is in Ituned, but won't go on the Ipod touch. I also have Ipod Nano 4 & same thing. I thot I updated Itunes to work with Win 8, but how do I make sure?
Thank you

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Does iTunes see the iPod?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Try syncing using the manual method
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
Ifg iTunes does not see the iPod
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Upgrading to Windows 7 with Lenovo original recovery disks

Hi all,
Here is the question. I got my x301 recently with Vista Ultimate on it. From the looks of it Windows 7 will be released soon and it appears to be much smoother system, hence I would like to migrate. Here is the question - would you reckon it will be possible to obtain from Lenovo a set of recovery disk which would return your machine into original factory condition, same as on Vista, but with Windows 7, whenever the new OS is out. Even if official free upgrade will not be available, I'm happy to pay for the licence upgrade or for the new license. The key concern is to burn original recovery setup on my disk, as if it would've been shipped with Windows 7.
Anyone got here similar experiences ? For example moving from pre-installed XP on machine to Vista in such a way ? And what are the opinions ?
Thanks !
Regards !
X301, 128 SSD, 4GB, Vista 32-Bit Ultimate

the decision to do this will be on microsoft, not lenovo. if microsoft offers a vista > 7 upgrade path then lenovo will be allowed to sell recovery media to customers who can prove current ownership via MTM/SN and COA. if microsoft doesn't offer such a path then you'll have to purchase windows 7 via retail channels.

Full version pshop CS (8), upgraded to CS4. Recieved the free upgrade to CS5... will this work?

Hi,
Appologies if this seems like a stupid enquiry. I'll keep it quick and simple.
I had been running a full version of photoshop CS (aka photoshop version 8). I just bought the upgrade to CS4 and also (to answer other questions on this forum) I just received the free upgrade to CS5 from Adobe. Not having an intel Mac yet I plan to sit on my CS5 upgrade till I have the machine to run it. My question to anyone who knows/has done this, can I install my CS5 upgrade given that my original full copy of photoshop was version CS (ie. more than 3 versions back)...?
I have seen this discussion:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2734196#2734196
but it still leaves me unsure (would Tai Lao be able to install CS5 if he wanted too I wonder...???).
Before anyone asks I have asked Adobe via the customer support portal and they said that I 'could install CS5 upgrade from CS4 upgrade' (which still doesn't answer the question, does my having CS stop me upgrading to CS5 due to the "3 version back upgrade policy"...?
Thanks for the help!
Matt

Matt,
Focus for a second please:
All Adobe upgrades are FULL INSTALLERS. If the upgrade does not find a previous version installed, it will simply ask you for the old serial number as well. That's all.
You now have a valid CS4 serial number. When you install CS5, the installer will look for a previously installed version. If you have installed CS4, it will proceed automatically to install CS5. If you did not install CS4, just use its serial number when prompted. (NOTE: This is based on the assumption that CS was indeed a qualifying version to upgrade to CS4. I don't remember what the requirements were back then.)
I have Photoshop 7.0.1, 8 (CS), 9.0.2 (CS2), 10.1 (CS3) and 11.0.1 (CS4) installed on my machine. All those are upgrades from my original full version 4 of Photoshop from many, many years ago. I can run all of them on my machine, even simultaneously If I wanted to, by launching the older version(s) first. In practice, I have run two versions simultaneously without any problems.
Just have your CS4 serial number handy.
Now, be advised that an awful lot of users are having nightmarish difficulties with the CS5 installer. If you run into trouble, don't blame it on the serial number, just blame the extraordinarily incompetent members of the pathetic installer team. That's a team outside of the Photoshop engineering team that has proven a disgraceful embarrassment to Adobe engineers and executives. A senior program manager has even admitted in private correspondence that he can't write in public what he would like to do to the members of the installer team.

… (would Tai Lao be able to install CS5 if he wanted too I wonder...???).
Of course I could, if I wanted to and had an Intel machine. However, I have rejected Leopard and Snow Leopard, and I will stay with CS4 and Tiger 10.0.4.11 for the foreseeable future, which means for the remainder of my life expectancy, as I can't afford a new machine.

Matt, the "3 version back upgrade policy" simply means that you have to have a valid serial number for one of the three versions, and you do have a valid number for CS4, which in turn was based on your valid number for CS.
Stop tormenting yourself.

How can I create system image of Win-7 only on drive with Win-7 (NTFS) and Win-ME (FAT-32) system partitions

I am trying to create a Windows 7 Image Backup on my Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit PC.
I have two bootable partitions on my hard drive. One is NTFS and contains the Win-7 system files.
The other is FAT-32 and contains a Windows-ME system.
When it comes to selecting the drives (partitions) for backing up, both are marked as System, and both are selected. Both are also "greyed out) - I cannot uncheck them.
Furthermore, the Windows-7 imaging utility supplied with Windows-7 returns an error saying it cannot image the disk because it contains a partition that is not NTFS.
How can I select and image ONLY the NTFS partition that contains the Win-7 system? That is what I want to do.

Any of the products listed below will backup the contents (all partitions) of your disk drive. The only limitation is that you must install the backup software in Windows 7. You will perform a "Disk and Partition" backup by manually selecting
the disk and all partitions (NTFS / FAT32) and the Master boot Record (MBR) on the drive. The destination / where the Image Backup will be stored should be an external USB drive. With a "Disk and Partition" backup you can restore any partition
to your existing drive or the entire backup (to the same disk drive or a new drive).

Installing Design Premium CS5.5 Upgrade: What to do with CS5?

I purchased the Win Design Premium CS5.5 Upgrade, installed it, and all seems fine... Except:
Now I have both CS5 and CS5.5 installed.
It was implied I needed to have CS5 installed to install the upgrade to CS5.5, but I sure don't want both.
Question:
If I uninstall CS5 - will it break CS5.5 (like one of the upgrades did a few years ago)?
Should I close my eyes and click Uninstall and hope for the best?
I've not found any docs or white papers referring to this.
[update: I did find a couple of selected forum posts referring to using the Cleaner Tool,
but I'm still a little confused - do I uninstall CS5, then run cleaner? Seems awkward.]
Thanks in advance for any feedback
system ---> Win7Pro64

It was implied by the folks @ Adobe when I ordered my upgrade (DVD). If I uninstalled CS5 first then my extensions would not get migrated and my settings would not get imported (e.g. dreamweaver sites, etc).
4 gig here, another 8 gig there * many years of upgrades = lots of disk space, and yes, size does matter.
Were you thinking of offering some revelant advice to my legitimate query, or are you just pumping up those 19,000+ posting stats? My refined question for the community professionals is: 'Can I uninstall CS5 without breaking CS5.5, and if so then what is the best procedure?'

After flat file what next - beggining with BI

Hi
I am sure my question might sound silly but I am just beginning my journey with SAP BI..
I have access to system, I can do in it whatever I want - just without messing too much..First steps- I went thru flat file upload.
i would like to start practicing data extraction from R/3 but as i know I might mess too much in the system
So my question is:
What impact can my messing have on the system in worst case??
Can you suggest something what I can practice on my own after FF??

Hi,
You can try creating generic extractors based on some 'Z' tables and then load data from it in BW. In generic extraction you can try different methods of extraction i.e. View, FM etc.
After extraction you can try reporting scenarios based on Virtual Provider and InfoProviders etc. For practise you can create everything of your own so it will not mess with existing objects in the system.

Durgesh.

Messages won't connect to AIM network after sleep. What's up with this?

I am having some problems with Messages. I just upgraded to Mountain Lion yesterday and I have found out that after my Mac Mini (Mid 2011 model) goes to sleep, Messages refuses to connect to the AIM network. I used to have a similar problem with iChat, but I was usually able to get it to connect again by turning the WiFi on on my Mac. (I use and Ethernet cable to connect to the wireless router.) However, that does not work with Messages. The only way I have found to be able to connect is to restart the computer. Any ideas?

Can't open firefox after download. What's up with that?

Two weeks ago Firefox quit downloading attachments. Tried every online fix I could find and nothing worked. I uninstalled and installed the latest version. Program seems to download and it installs an icon on the toolbar but when you click on the icon nothing happens. I don't have time at work to debug a defective product. What a colossal waste of time. Why must software companies continue to dick with something that works perfectly and make it more and more complicated and unusable. I hate Internet Explorer but at least it works.

hello dowens, since this can sometimes be caused by malware active on a system, please run a scan with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes], [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] & [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx microsoft safety scanner].

Failed burn after failed burn - What is up with the new DVD+R DL burner???

I burn a lot of DVD-R single layer DVDs at work on my G5. Both from TS folders and from disk images.
But my new Intel iMac 20 inch, has yet to burn a dual layer DVD+R disk and fails half the time with DVD-r single layer disks.
Using both Disk Utility and Popcorn.
Is this a bug, anybody else having problems?

Hold on to your hats ... I've burned about 300 DVDs on a variety of DVD media. I'm always copying stuff off to DVDRW or CDRW from movies (often video TS) to 4.4gig of data saved to DVDRW (geez, I LOVE that). Now have a great library of movies, TV shows, specials, sports. I use EyeTV to capture TV stuff then Toast 7.0.2 to burn to DVD, with and without chapters. I make backups of Movie DVDs from originals as well as old VHS fed through EyeTV and/or a Canon GL2 camcorder. No problems at all. I use genric media from Staples and it works great. Every now and then I get a coaster and recopy without problems.
I also have an external LaCie Slim DVDRW/CDRW and it is not officially supported by Apple (most other LaCies are fully supported) yet it works like a champ!.
I truly love my iMac.

What's wrong with my Mac's disk drive?

I have a Macbook running OS X Mountain Lion (10.7.5). It has multiple users on it because I share it with other family members. A member of our family is getting a new computer and is giving me and those who share the computer with me, the old one. The Mac I use right now has a 500 GB hard drive. However, the Mac I'm getting is a Macbook Pro with only 200 GB of storage. When I went to see how much space is used up, I saw this:
Also, I can delete other profiles if that causes a problem and make one master profile for everyone. And lastly, it seems that whatever I delete goes into either the "other" tab or "backups" tab. I don't know what these consist of. Thanks for all your help!

First, empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash as well:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
If you're using Time Machine to back up a portable Mac, some of the available space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of files you've recently deleted. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as "Backups." The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself.
To locate large files, you can use Spotlight. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders. It may take some minutes for ODS to list all the files.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.
