Old Cable Driver interferring with new?

So here's the issue. I guess due to some unproper installing or un-installing of another pc suite a couple of years back(not sure if it was done by me or someone else using this machine) Add/Remove was not able to remove the old cable driver. I tried the cleaner, still nothing. When I install the new pc suite(the latest version) for my new phone just bought, I get a message that it could not remove the old pc suite(I guess meaning just the cable driver as the old one is not on add/remove and is long gone). I carry on with the installation anyway, it supposedly installs everything fine, but alas, when I connect my phone to the computer, it just doesn't let me continue, as if it doesn't recognize it. PC Suite itself does not give me any message, I just can't 'Next' it, however XP gives the bubble saying the new hardware was not properly installed and that it might not work properly. Also, checking after the installation, in addition to the new PC Suite, Add/Remove has two cable drivers, the old and the new one. Any ideas?

I didn't use the cd when i connected mine and it installed fine on xp and vista.

  • HT4461 Old Apple ID interfering with new one

    I have a new Apple ID but the App store is trying to make me sign in with my old email. I have updated my ID and everything and now it won't let me update anything.

    You have 2 choices; delete it all and buy it again or recover the old Apple ID. The Account Security Team can help you reset the Apple ID's password.

  • What is the exact name of the cable I need to connect my old hard drive from my macbook pro (it has been taken out of the computer) to my new macbook pro?  I need to transfer files from the old hard drive to the new computer.

    What is the exact name of the cable I need to connect my old hard drive from my macbook pro, which has been removed from the computer, to my new macbook pro?  I need to transfere files from the old hard drive to the new computer.

    No eSATA to USB. Just a SATA/IDE to USB adapter. Google SATA/IDE to USB adapter and you will get tons of links to buy them. Most likely your local computer electronics store has them, although they might be more expensive buying locally than online.
    I have several. You can get either USB 2, which what I recommend, or USB 3. USB is backward compatible so a USB 3 adapter will work on a USB 2 port and a USB 2 adapter will work on a USB 3 port. Backward compatible in both directions.
    I suggest a USB 2 type because there have been some problems with certain USB 3 devices, the USB 3 interface used isn't all that good in those certain devices. USB 3 is still fairly new where as USB 2 has been around for over 10 years.

    Thank you LowLuster,
    At the apple store they said I needed an esata to usb wire.  But looking at wires on line has been confusing.  Is sata the same as esata?  How do I know if I need a usb 3 or usb 2?

    hi is it possible to migrate my old hard drive to my new SDD drive with them both install in my desktop at the same time? also where can I download the software? I cant find any on SanDisk website Thanks 

    yes you can migrate with both the SSD and HDD connected internally to your desktop. SanDisk offers a one time use cloning software for free in the SSD Dashboard. Use the link below to install the SSD Dahboard and on the Tool tab there will be an option for Apricorn cloning software.

  • How do I transfer applications & data from my old hard-drive to my new one?

    My old hard drive started to crash, it was on it's way out and making funny noises. I have brought a new hard drive and connected it to the same leeds as the old one. I have put the opperating system on to the new hard drive and it is all up and running..... but.
    I want to transfer all my old applications like garage sale and limewire without having to pay for them again and transfer all my music and photos from the old hard drive to the new.
    So:
    1: How do i get the old hard drive out of the position it's in it seems glued in and i can't see any screws?
    2: How do i connect both hard drives and transfer everything from the old to the new? Do i need to buy another set of leeds or should they be in the computer
    Your help would be most appreciated.....

    Hi
    You should be able to have both drives installed at the same time in the rear U shaped bracket. One needs to be mounted in the bottom of the bracket, have it's jumpers set to master and be connected to the end connector of the ribbon cable. The other needs to mounted above it, have it's jumpers set to slave and be connected to the middle connector of the ribbon cable. The computer should have the leads to do this, i.e. one ribbon cable with two connectors and two molex power connectors. With both drives installed, you can then drag your music and photos etc from the old to the new. You could try dragging the applications, although if they install additional files elsewhere they'll need to be reinstalled from the original CDs or DVDs.
    The old drive may be screwed into the U shaped bracket from below. There should be a single screw which secures the bracket to the chassis at the front, although it may be hidden under the ribbon cable. If you unplug the ribbon cable and undo the single screw you can remove the bracket still containing the old drive, by sliding it forwards and lifting it up at the front. The screws securing the drive to the bracket can then be undone from beneath.

  • When transferring data from an old hard drive to a new one, is there a way to keep alias files and folders in tact?

    My mac and I rely HEAVILY on the use of alias files and folders. The simple version of my question is: When transferring data from an old hard drive to a new one, is there a way to keep alias files and folders in tact?  These are not symlinks or symbolic links, they're all alias files and folders. 
    Is there any software out there that might help me with a solution?  Are there any tricks or tips you can give me to try?

    Use either Setup Assistant at first start, or Migration Assistant on subsequent occasions and all will be transferred intact. Given your wording I presume you are Unix savvy and will appreciate the problems that duplicate userids would cause, so of you use MA for the migration, make sure the target Mac has no userid equal to that on the source and you will be fine.
    SA does not have these issues since it runs before any user account is created, so it can simply copy over everything. But MA runs after the fact and only solves the issue partially by changing the UID in the user directory, leading to permission problems.

  • I blew my motherboard on an old computer and hooked my old hard drive to the new computer and want to transfer my bookmarks to the new drive but cannot find where they are located on the old drive--any help?

    My motherboard went bad on my old computer, but the hard drive was OK. I purchased a new computer and hooked my old hard drive to it through a usb adapter. I would like to import or copy my bookmarks from the old hard drive to my new one, but I cannot find where they are. I was unable to determine this from searching articles on the web. Be advised that my old hard drive is basically nothing but a storage place for files at this point. My old operating system was windows XP, and my new system is Windows Home Premium.

  • HT5096 where is the administrator window when I drag the folder "Backups.backupdb" from the old hard drive on the new one?

    where is the administrator window when I drag the folder "Backups.backupdb" from the old hard drive on the new one? At the moment when I try to do it, the window that appear doesn't allow me to continue. it only says "the volume has the wrong case sensitivity". thanks

    Although the documentation says you can copy Time Machine backups in the Finder, it's very slow and sometimes doesn't work at all.
    Launch Disk Utility, open the built-in help, and search for the term "Duplicate." Follow the instructions. All existing data on the destination volume will be erased. That shouldn't be a problem, because you don't want to mix backup and non-backup data on the same drive anyway. Turn Time Machine OFF in its preference pane while copying the volume.

  • Can I merge ical from old, non cloud Mac with new one?

    Can I merge ical from old, non cloud Mac with new one?
    I cannot sync from old G5 so if I backup that iCal, can I merge it with new iCal on my new Mac without losing new Mac calenday details?
    Thanks.

    Jeff,
    First, iCloud: How to back up iCloud data.
    Next, use iCal>File>Export>Export...for the calendar that you want to use for the export. Move the .ics file to your new computer, and double click the file. You will be offered a choice of creating a new calendar in iCloud, or importing to an existing calendar. Make the appropriate choice for your circumstances.
