Couple of quickies! (i hope)
1.   Been looking for a way to transfer files from DVR to my PC/PC attached hard drive.  Is there any easy way to do this,such as the way a TiVo would allow this to be done?
 2.  While looking for an answer to this, i Found the Media Manager software, which seems to allow one to stream video to your TVs, and other nice things.   I dont like installing software that I cannot use, so............
      A.  Can this be used with the regular HD DVR, or do you need the Home Media DVR system?
      B.    If it can be used with regualr DVR, can the video be streamed to any tv with any box, or can it only go to tvs with DVR boxes?
Thanks in advance..
1.
No. The FIOS TV boxes do not allow the transfer of any content to your PC. (DRM) Digital Rights Management issues. Also HDCP High Definition Copy Protection. The firewire port is active if the correct drivers are installed in the PC. This could allow some none protected content to be streamed to your PC, if it is running D-VCR software. Mostly local programming and is a pain to try and use.
2. A.
The software can be used with the non HM-DVR for a 90 day trial, if you go and select Try HM-DVR. But otherwise HM-DVR subscription is required.
2. B.
Streaming Video is currently being tested. Total funtionality for streaming video from the PC to STB, has yet to be released.

  • I cannot transfer files from XP to Windows Vista notebook

    Hi,
    I recently bought laptop with windows vista on it. My other computer has windows xp. I would like to transfer files from wndows xp to vista, when I do I am unable to open this. I also receive e mails that have excel (xls) files attached and I am unable to open them, Can anyone advise? Thanks for taking the time to read this.

    How do you exactly mean: transferring files? Would you like to copy them to the machine with Vista?
    And regarding the Excel (*.xls) files, you need Microsoft Excel which is in the Microsoft Office Package. That means if you have no Microsoft Office for Vista then you will need to purchase one to open and edit Excel files.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How to transfer file from application server to presentation server in background?

    Hi Experts,
    How to transfer file from application server to presentation server in background?
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks Raman and Challa,
    We want to move file from application server to Shared folder, not on local machine. We checked FM which you guys have provided but those are not able to read file from application server.
    We need this program to run in background so that we can use this in daily process chain.
    Appreciate your inputs on this.

  • I am trying to transfer files from my MacBook Pro to my iMac using migration Assstance and they cannot find one another.  My MacBook Pro uses Migration Assistance 1.0.6 and my new iMac uses 10.5.3.  What can I do to allow sharing?

    How does one transfer Files from an old MacBook Pro to a new iMac?

    10.5.3 is at least part of the problem.  You need to apply the latest updates to that mac.
    See How do I set up a new Mac from an old one, its backups, or a PC?  Select the appropriate link and follow the instructions carefully.

  • How can I transfer files from one external HD (WD My Passport) to another external HD (Seagate Backup Plus)?  WD drive was improperly ejected and Finder no longer recognizes it.  Tried fixing with Disk Utility but failed.

    How can I transfer files from one external HD (WD My Passport 2T) to another external HD (Seagate Backup Plus 2T)?  WD drive was improperly ejected (although we did tell it to eject) and now Finder no longer recognizes it.   Using MacBook Pro and I just upgraded to Yosemite before this happened. Was told at Apple Store to use Disk Utility to repartition, but it failed.  It says to backup files and restore.  But how do I backup files?  Or would appreciate any other suggestions to repair drive.

    You may drag & drop between external hds. 
    Should you run into trouble.
    Take the exernal drive appart.  Take out the harddrive.  Try reading the data via a usb adapter. Put a household finan on the hd.

  • I'm thinking of  buying one of the new Imacs and am presently a PC user - how hard is it or how can I transfer files from my PC to a new IMac

    I am thinking about purchasing a new IMac and presently use a PC.  I would like to find out how difficult it is to transfer files from the PC to the IMac or in more detail - just how is it done.  Many thanks for any responses.

    There are several ways by which it can be done. There is a special Migration Assistant for transferring an entire user account from a PC to the Mac. You would have to establish a network connection between the two machines.
    Transfer the files you want to an external USB hard drive from the PC then transfer from the external drive to the Mac.
    Ask the Apple retailer if they will transfer your data to the new Mac at the time of purchase. You will need to bring the PC with you.

    How can I transfer files from my computer to my I Pad?

    Try a conduit such as Dropbox.
    Goodreader or Documents to Go also have helper apps that allow transfers.
    Goodreader is particularly good in that it has a integal file tree and you can mount your computers harddrive and navigate directly on your ipad.
    Use the open with to view/move files into other apps.
