How to back up my laptop?
I have an HP pavilion m6 laptop with Windows 7. How do I back up my data if my hard drive ever fails? Should I order hp recovery disks or should I just make a recovery image? Suggestions?
No need to order Recovery Disks. you have software to burn a set:

The hard disc of my laptop has crashed and i lost all the data. Now I want to take back up of my I phone and transfer contacts , messages and music etc back into my laptop , how can I do that. Also let me know how I can transfer the contacts into Windows contacts from I phone. Pl help
Your content will only be where you put it. It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone: File>Device>Transfer purchases.
You can import your pics taken with the iphone as you would with any digital camera.
You can e-mail the other pics to yourself, they will never be of the original quality.
You can out a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. You should get the option to merge the data when you sync. -
As an update, I installed an update 5.7on my Mac laptop, now the Lightroom 5.0 has become a "Lightroom Mobile" version. How can change it back to the laptop version 5.7?
Thanks for any help you can provide.LR on your laptop is still a desktop version. It is just now able to upload to the cloud to replicate photos to either http://lightroom.adobe.com/ or an iPad that has LR Mobile installed.
I think you probably just want to change the LR 5 identity plate back so it doesn’t mention LR Mobile all the time. Hover over the identity-plate area, and click on the little triangle that appears, then choose Change Identity Plate. -
My MacBook Pro HD crashed. It is all up and runmning except for one issue. I have about 200 songs on my iPhone but have only gotton 53 back on my laptop from my iPhone and those are the songs I purchased via iTunes. How do I get the rest of the songs from my iPhone back onto my HD.
The songs I'm not able to import casme from CD's. Nothing from napster etc.
I've tried and tried to import them rom iTunes vis "Library" " Import"Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

How to Back Up User Files (Windows 7 64-bit ) in HP laptop?
He everybody!
I have a HP laptop
Product Name: HP Pavilion dv6-6093ex
Product Number : LM610EA#A2N
I have read 'How to Back Up User Files (Windows Vista or XP)'
Back up files with the HP Recovery Manager
The HP Recovery Manager is used to back up user files to an external USB storage device.
1-Boot to the recovery partition 1. by pressing F11 .
2. Click Advanced Options .
3. Click Backup computer files .
4-Select the type of files you need to back up from the list and then click Next . It will take several
minutes to locate all of the files, no matter where they are on the hard drive.
5. Select the destination device (external USB hard drive or a USB flash drive/Memory Stick).
6. Click Next to start the backup.
New files will be backed up. Depending on the number of files located, it could take an hour or more to backup
the file.
However, When I have done those steps I encountered these:
First: I didn't see any option to save the files in an external hard disk or even another partition other than Windows partition.
Second: I haven't find any option to back up my files in other partition other than Windows partition, I have let Recovery manager proceed to save at any place it prefers. After that, I found that Recovery Manager gave me an error during copying the files :
Recovery Manager failed in finishing backup files, error: FFFFFF14, although the percentage of progress was %67
Also, I have enough free space on Windows partition.Would it be quite good if anyone could take some time out to reply me?

I get this error message when I try to back up my laptop:
' Time machine could not complete the backup. The backup disc image "/Volumes/Data/Lou Ann Buesing's Mac Book Pro. sparse bundle' is already in use. "
Anyone know how to fix it?Reboot the TC.. Sometimes you need to reboot the whole network.
This is what comes of Lion and then made worse in Mountain Lion of Apple not spending enough time to fix the bugs.
Read C12 in pondini.

C17 can be related I think. -
I am using an external WD hard drive for backing up my laptop. I have to do it manually, so I can't set Time Machine to just do it for me. How do I know when it is done backing up? How long should this take?
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
tmutil compare -E
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
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).
The command will take at least a few minutes to run. Eventually some lines of output will appear below what you entered.
Each line that begins with a plus sign (“+”) represents a file that has been added to the source volume since the last snapshot was taken. These files have not been backed up yet.
Each line that begins with an exclamation point (“!”) represents a file that has changed on the source volume. These files have been backed up, but not in their present state.
Each line that begins with a minus sign (“-“) represents a file that has been removed from the source volume.
At the end of the output, you’ll get some lines like the following:
Added:
Removed:
Changed:
These lines show the total amount of data added, removed, or changed on the source(s) since the last snapshot. -

Desktop is an imac is 10.6.8 running firefox v 3.6.16 and runs well. My mac laptop also 10.6.8 automatically upgraded to 6.0 and runs very slow, and I do not like the layout of the toolbar. How do I get my laptop back to 3.16.6
Now it is clear which it wasn't before! We can't see what you have done or not so a good descriptions does help when communicating.
If you have done all you say and some restarts too I would advise you to do the install of 10.6 from the installation disc. Restart the computer and then install the 10.6.6 Combo update. You just install "on top" of what you have. No archiving or formatting. -

Flash accidentally got uninstalled from my pc laptop (Chrome), and now it won't even load websites so I can't download it. Can I copy it from my desktop? Or how do I get it back onto my laptop?
Hi micha164,
I am curious to know how did Flash Player get uninstalled from Chrome? If you can please share steps to reproduce how your Flash Plugin got Removed?
Also, Can you open chrome application Goto Chrome://plugins and See if Adobe Flash Player Plugin is Disabled? If yes, kindly enable Flash Player Plugin by clicking the [blue colored]enable link and restart the browser to see if the changes have reflected.
Because Flash Player cannot be uninstalled from Chrome using any uninstaller, as it is embedded part of the app installer/update and can only be removed if you remove the plugin reference from the location on disk. Possibility is that your plugin got disabled and did not get enabled after that.
Please see if it helps. If the above does not work then the only resolve is to update Chrome app. Please let us know if your query got resolved or not.

Time Machine will not work on a PC, so the next best thing might be a Windows application like Genie Timeline Pro to perform a similar service.
