"How to Upgrade a new PC to Windows 10" (OOBE experience for a new device)

A short video from Microsoft illustrating the few simple steps required to upgrade your new PC system to Windows 10

Any in place upgrade is ever simple. Even some clean install have problem.Getting all the right drivers for machine specific module is also key. Is Lenovo going to package a set of tested drivers to setup current models to factory built spec's or are we left to figure it out on our own? My Z70-80 is two weeks old and I won't be jumping on until some time after the RTM release. I don't know at this time if a Bood CD for image recovery would work under the existing UFIE configuration either. I don't see any mention of what effect the multiple hidden factory partitions currently on my system will be. Useless after upgrade, unused space or what. ONEKEY Recovery uses some of them currently. We need more support from Lenovo then a MS Upgrade video which over simplifies a more complex set of issues.

I just got an 8GB iPod touch, I'm concerned that I will not have enought gigabytes for future music purchases. Is it possible to upgrade to a 32GB without having to pay $300 for a new iPod?

I just got an 8GB iPod touch, I'm concerned that I will not have enough gigabytes for future music purchases, Is it possible to upgrade to a 32GB without having to pay $300 for a new iPod?

Well, obviously you can't walk into the apple store and get them to upgrade your iPod for you for FREE when the 32GB costs at least a 100$ more.
Just stick with the 8GB, don't download rubbish apps.

How can I get iTunes running on Windows XP as well as a newer laptop running Windows 7 to both recognize my new iPhone 4S? It seems to work fine with Win 7 PC so far, but not at all with the XP OS separate laptop.

How can I get iTunes running on a Windows XP machine as well as, separately on a newer laptop running Windows 7 to both recognize and sync with my new iPhone 4S? I have different libraries on each machine which I need to sync with the iPhone, both in iTunes. It seems to be workiing fine on the Windows 7 machine, but not even reconizing the device at all in iTunes on Windows XP.
Thank you for your assistance.

Hi turingtest2 - thanks for the reply. As you say It is how it is - and I have three workstations in this home (not counting three for my children and one for the family) and I pretty much always have more than one OS on each - that's how it is for me. I shouldn't have to worry about how many OSs I have (or how often I change them) just to have music while I'm working - through the PC sound system that is. I never have to worry about any other software, only iTunes. Once in a while (in the past) I've made a vendor call if I changed to many things to often (like CPU, GPU, memory, etc - or even a replacement MB) - but that hasn't happened in a couple years (at least since Vista) so I think (hope) they have fixed that for good. And even then it was a quick call and problem resolved. The only (glaring) constant problem is iTunes - limiting my own use of my own music (by counting an OS as a physical PC). Even with VM (which is just another OS) - although you can Attach things to multiple active OSs - it's still your own (purchased) music - and all on one PC. Thanks again!

Here is the FAQ and what users might have these issues at below link:
http://event.msi.com/2013/win8-1/faq.html
I followed these instructions to the letter. Updated to the latest 8.1 drivers in the MSI global site. Power Boost and Dragoon Gaming Center threw application exceptions along with other issues. I did a factory reset back to windows 8, updated to the latest 8.0 drivers in the MSI global site and no issues so far.
So whether it be in 8.1 itself or drivers it would appear that there are some compatibility issues with at least some notebooks, Mine is a GT70 Dragon Edition 2. Support did not recommend going to 8.1 since mine was factory installed with Windows 8 (but I am sure their stance on all notebooks is not change the OS from what it is shipped with)

My ipod is formated for windows xp. new laptop is windows 8. ipod wont update on new laptop, what do i do now?

my new laptop is windows 8. iPod is formatted for windows xp. new laptop knows iPod is there but wont update. how do I fix this?

hey there oddball35,
It sounds like you are trying to update your iPod with your new computer. Without knowing the specific symptoms, I recommend you start with choosing the iPod model you have from the following website:
iPod Troubleshooting Assistants
https://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
If that does not resolve the issue, are you getting any error messages, or what specifically is preventing the restore from happening?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

How do I move my iPhone back ups to a new computer which is already using iTunes for a different device?

I have backed up my children's iDevices to my work computer. Now that my wife has a new computer, she wants to be able to manage their devices from home. Of course, she is already using her computer to manage her iPhone.
Is there a way to move my iTunes library files to my wife's computer so that it will recognize both her iPhone as well as our children's iDevides, without losing any data, playlists, etc.?
TIA

No. You cannot join the two libraries. She can make a copy of your iTunes library on her computer, then switch libraries when opening iTunes if she needs to handle the other devices. Note that everything you have downloaded for your kids on your computer are connected to your Apple ID. Your wife cannot transfer anything to her Apple ID.
Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data. Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
Note: The essence of the above was created by user, randers4. I
have made substantial changes to improve readability and syntax.

Fan is alway running on my new dv7-4290us. Should I exchange for a new one or is this normal?

I just got my new dv7-4290us from the HP store and after a little while of playing with it, I noticed that the fan seems to always be running. It's not spinning very fast, just kind of a soft blowing or purring sound but audible for sure. Is this normal for this notebook or notebooks with quad cores and dedicated graphics? I called HP tech support and asked them if it was normal for the fan to run all the time, but they where kind of clueless with, 3 different guys giving me 3 different answers. I did mess around with some power management settings and the HP Thermal program but that didn't help. Turning off the fan always on setting in the bios just causes the fan to blow up every 20 seconds, so that is not a solution. There wasn't a bios update on the driver page, so I don't know about that as a fix. Otherwise everything seems to be functioning properly with no BSOD or lockups so far. The computer doesn't seem to be running hot (core temps stay under 50°c under light load) and the fan doesn't sound unhealthy like it has a bad bearing or anything. I just want to know if the fan always running at a low speed thing is normal on these machines. From my expereince with notebooks the fan alway running is a sign that your system is not cooling properly, so I wanted to get a second opinion from fellow users before I go through the hastle of exchanging this for a new one.

Does this happen on AC power only? There maybe an option in BIOS for 'Fan always on while on AC power'.

When is the new docking station going to come out for the new iPod touch with the lightning connection?

I have just got the new iPod Touch for christmas. I am now wondering when a docking station will come out for the new iPod Touch with the new lightning connection. I have not been able to find a docking station that fits the iPod Touch without having to buy the adapter(the adapter does not allow the iPod to be charged)
When will a docking station come out for the new iPod Touch?
Olivia Davey

You would have to ask the makers of the docking stations that question. Belkin has a dock now that uses Apple's Lightning cable:
http://www.belkin.com/us/F8J057-Belkin/p/P-F8J057
so all it basically does is provide a stand and pass through the headphone jack. There's at least one other dock here:
http://www.thelightningdock.com/products/iphone-5-dock
If you're referring to Apple's Universal Dock, there have been no indications that they will make any new dock, though of course none of us here know their plans for future products.

How to upgrade T61 from XP to Windows 7 or 8

Regards

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Welcome to the forum!
I'd suggest a clean install of W7, not an upgrade of any kind.
Save your personal files/data, wipe the drive clean and install the new OS.
Good luck.

How do I turn off the multiple windows aero peek feature for CS5 on Windows 7?

I'm not sure if this only happens with floated windows but in Photoshop CS5, when I have multiple files open, each one of those files have their own windows open on the Windows 7 taskbar. I'd like it all to be combined as one like how it was in CS4. I searched through the preferences and couldn't find anything related to this problem. Does anybody know how I can turn this off?

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

When I first loaded Win7, I went over the GUI changes from XP (I passed on ever using Vista) carefully.
Out of curiosity, how long ago was that? I'm guessing not long.
That you chose not to use Vista is also part of the problem. Many things in Windows 7's UI are evolved from Vista's changes. You're viewing Windows 7 from the perspective of one who has changed suddenly from XP, and that is no doubt a shock.
You also expect it to be a system that facilitates work, and that's a fundamental problem. Windows is now first and foremost an entertainment vehicle for the masses. Those of us wanting to use it for real work have to work at it to tune it up for that task.
If you sense the resource usage of Windows 7 Aero then quite possibly your computer isn't up to the task. When run with a good video interface Aero becomes smooth and instantly responsive, and that (with a few tweaks besides) actually makes using Windows quite a pleasure. It definitely can be made to get out of the way and lets you concentrate on the work.
The basic trouble is, Microsoft doesn't make changing to any new version of their operating system an easy task...
As a career computer/software engineer, I chose to understand Windows 7 from the inside-out (for the first time ever I ran the beta versions in a virtual machine, to get used to it). I've had to find dozens of tweaks and turn off a number of things that shouldn't be running.
AFTER ALL THAT I can say Windows 7 is a dynamite system, that often outperforms XP (both in compute power and in UI performance). And it's more stable than any version of Windows to date.
I can only encourage you to stay with it. It may take a year or more, but it really does grow on you. On my main Windows 7 workstation I run virtual machines with XP and Vista almost daily for development testing, so I haven't forgotten their UIs, and I sure would never want to go back!

How to upgrade iphoto from 1.1.1 to 4.0 for use with IPOD

I have a 5th gen IPOD and want to put photos on it but I need Iphoto 4+ to do so. I have OS 10.4.3 but only version 1.1.1 of Iphoto. I have downloaded the upgrade to 5 but it does not see a newer version and will not let me install it. How can I upgrade?

Simply said if you really are runnign on Mac OS X 10.4.3 which is (Tiger) the n you technically should have the latest iphoto because it comes packaged in the the newest OS. If you ned an update then run software update on your imac and see if a update appears dor iphoto. If not then all i cna think is that you must either not have and you will need to purchase ilife 05 to get the latest version because its not a free update or that youare running on an older OS like panther in which you will still ned to buy ilife o5
You also might get better luck asking this in the iphoto discusison board since thats what your post is mainly about.
