Create an image of my current PC laptop and them use as Bootcamp image...
I currently have a Dell laptop that I've had for almost two years, running Win XP. I've installed tons of software over that time. I would love to be able to create an "image" of this laptop, and then use it as a Bootcamp partition. I can imagine that this is very difficult, due to the different hardware, if nothing else, if it's possible at all.
Is this possible? If so, how?
And not transferable unless you used retail copy.

Cannot find my "Pictures folder" in Finder and was using the "all Images" selection to fiddle with my pictures. Now I think I may have screwed iPhoto up
Hi jamesxio,
Do you still have the Pictures folder in your home folder? If not, create a new folder in your home folder and name it Pictures. Make sure the iPhoto Library folder is in the Pictures folder.
Now launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed until you get a message screen. Choose to open another library and navigate to and highlight the iPhoto Library folder. Click the Open button.
You didn't move anything around or rename anything in the iPhoto Library folder in the finder, did you? -

Can I install Adobe Photoshop on my laptop and desktop using the same license?
Can I install Adobe Photoshop on my Laptop and Desktop using the same License?
Thanks!For Photoshop CC:
You may install software on up to two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or one each.
If you install on a third computer, it will request you to de-activate on the other two computers. You can then reactivate one of the previous two computers, and use Creative Cloud apps on it.

How do I create separate playlists for two ipods/one library and them sync them?
I have an older classic ipod, my daughter has an older nano. I got new laptop and have managed to sync my ipod and ipad with success, as well as move my library from old pc to new laptop. Now I am trying to update and sync my daughter's ipod. It says that it is synced but nothing changes. I believe I had set up two different libraries on the old pc, and so certain cds had been copied into her library. I can't find them in the earlier mentioned transfered library. That's not a big deal, as I can just use those cds to add them back in later (more work though). I've read older community posts on my issue, but any article links on how-to are too old, I guess. I like the idea of using just one library and creating playlists for each ipod to sync to, but cannot figure out how to do this. Also, do I need to restore my daughter's ipod to get the ball rolling? She's taken a couple of videos she likes and I'm not sure I want to lose it in the restore. Any advice greatly appreciated.
Hey puckaluck8,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The following article provides different methods for managing multiple devices with one computer:

You mentioned syncing separate playlists, which is definitely a good method. The other option you may want to consider is called "Manually Syncing", which you can read about here:

Can I attach a link to one image and then use that linked image multiple times in my site?
Hi,
Is it possible to attach a link to an image and then use that image (with link attached) multiple times in my site.
Thanks,
AllyUse 'Find and Replace'>under the 'Edit' menu.
Select from 'Find in'- Folder and browse to the folder your website files are kept in to select it.
Search: Source Code
In the Find box (but obviously use YOUR image code):
<img src="images/imageName.jpg" width="200" height="200" alt="" />
In the Replace box: (use YOUR link and image code)
<a href="yourLink.html"><img src="images/imageName.jpg" width="200" height="200" alt="" /></a>
Then select 'Replace All' -
Problem In moving 1 image from 1 panel to next and maintain size of original image?
Why is it when i drag one image from the bottom panel over to another picture(solid color) i will only get 50% of the image and not the full image. Same thing when i copy and paste that image over the gray solid colored image also i will get only 50% of the image. The original image of the cat(full view) is about 24.79% and picture is 11.733 x 15.644 in size. the other image (solid color) is at 43.63% or 6.667 x 8.889". size is in inches. Do i have to resize the images and if so how as i am a stupie in this matter. The images are aligned side by side on the main panel or display.I am trying to place the cat over the gray background image and with a layer mask delete the present baackground of the cat to uncover the gray of the bottom layer. Thanks!!
Probably the resolution of each image has a different value. You can check this in Image>resize>image size. The resolution is expressed in px/in.
If you are attempting to place the cat on a plain gray background, try this:
Set your foreground color chip (lower left) to the shade of gray desired
Open the picture with the cat
Using one of the selection tools (e.g. Selection brush, lasso), select the cat
Place the cat on a separate layer (Layer>new>layer via copy)
Place a blank layer between the background layer and the cat layer
Fill the blank layer with gray ( Edit>fill layer>foreground color)
Use the move tool to position the cat, and resize, if necessary, with the corner handles of the bounding box. -
I'm fed up of my laptop and windows but am concerned about the AMAZING music library and playlists that I have on the itunes on it. Will this all be on the cloud too so that when I use my ipad, iphone and ipod that I can access it?
I'mk so used to just syncing all the time.
Cheers

Does anyone know why or how i can see the files? I recorded a video which is 45 minutes long but over 8gb in size and i need to get it off the ipad - but when i plug it in it doesnt show anything apart from a folder called DCIM. :s
Turn on Photo Stream in settings on your device, download the iCloud control panel in your Apple Software Update panel (if using Windows) and then go into your Photo Stream folder, and copy everything into a folder on your laptop, then proceed to delete the photos on your device. That's what I do. Hope this helps.

I am trying to restore my laptop to factory settings with saving my folders. My laptop has a webstroids virus is the reason for me doing this. When the factory image recovery was finished or about finished this message pops up.....
Restore7.exe-Application Error the instruction at 0x771fbea9 referenced memory at 0x00000000. The memory could not be read.
Now what do I do? I bought the Norton 360 and it wouldn't even protect my laptop before that's another reason I wanted to restore the laptop. It wouldn't even let me install the Norton virus removal.Hi,
Assuming you have Windows 7 you can try to perform recovery without backup but you'll loose all data.
How to Perform an HP System Recovery
Does your notebook still boot to windows? If it does then try downloading and running the following virus removal tools in normal mode or Safe Mode with Networking(Recommended)
https://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/
http://www.superantispyware.com/downloadfile.html?productid=SUPERANTISPYWAREFREE
If non of the above works then the next option would be to get the Recovery Discs for your notebook.
Obtaining HP Recovery Discs or an HP USB Recovery Drive
Note:
If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem

Trying to organize a new workflow for travel using a desktop, laptop and IPad using LR mobile
Apologies in advance as I'm sure this has been asked but I am swamped with information on the web.
OK for travel I want to upload images to my laptop from my CF cards. I then want to be able to make basic edits and flags on the laptop (which I am yet to purchase) and then have this reflect on my desktop. I have LR mobile so figured the laptop access would allow me to do the same things as if I was viewing on the IPad but apparently not...Please help!
I have read about some people exporting the catalog backwards and forwards between the 2 devices and this seems messy and I don't think I want to get into that. A main attraction was to be able to upload and edit on the road (I'm taking a 3.5 week trip to Cambodia) and then on my return to my desktop have a lot of the work done to then make final detailed edits and subsequent books, prints etc.
I love photography but I'm not a tech geek so any help/suggestions appreciated!On the laptop start a new catalogue for the trip. Import all new photos into it. At the end, copy it and the images to the desktop and in, your main catalogue, use File > Import from Another Catalog to bring in all the work in the trip catalogue. Maybe practice this workflow now and return with other questions?

Laptop and Desktop Using Same Printer???
Good day!
Good day! I recently purchased a C4795 and have it currently connected to my desk top computer via USB cable. I now have a laptop computer and would like to be able to send print jobs via wireless to the printer. How do I set this up so my desk top is connected by USB and my laptop is wireless? OR......will both work wireless through cable modem?
Thank you very much in advance for your assistance.
Regards.On your desktop machine, go to Start, Printers. Right click the printer you want to share and choose Sharing. Check the box that says "Share this printer". I don't know if you nee to install Additional Drivers (it probably won't hurt anything.
Now go to your laptop unit, Start, Printers, Add a Printer (along the top) and follow the prompts (for a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer).
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

Hi. My daughter and I share 1 apple id (username and password). How do I set her up with her own apple id and password on her mac but she keeps all the songs from the itunes library?
Make copy of the current library, and copy it to her new Mac. Once it is there, she can delete whatever she doesn't want (i.e. your stuff).
Start the new account, and she can use it to buy stuff going forward.
