Will win. 7 work on laptop with win.xp

This question was solved.
View Solution.

A question like this would require more information, like the hardware specifications of your computer.
If your computer meets the hardware requirements listed on Microsoft's website
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/system-requirements
you're probably good to go.
You can check your computers hardware by right clicking my computer and selecting properties.
There might be minor details you would have to change in your BIOS as well. If you aren't too good with computers, the best option would be to call HP and check with them (even though their customer service is utter crap) or post another question and include the full model name/number and all details about your computer to the forum.
Hope this helps

I have reinstalled CS5.1 extended on my new Lenovo Laptop with Win 8.1 64 bit. No installation problems, but now Image Adjustments and tools do not work any more.

Operating Problem with CS5.1 extended. I replaced my old HP Laptop with a new Lenovo laptop with Win 8.1 and reinstalled CS5.1 64-bit version. The software downloaded and installed correctly and worked for a day, but when I rebooted the next day, the Image Adjustments and tools functions did not respond any more. I have uninstalled and redownloaded/ reinstalled without success.

I then downloaded and installed on my PC and everything works.

I have an iPod Touch 3rd gen and while it is recognized by my laptop with Win 8.1, it won't sync with iTunes.

I have an iPod Touch 3rd gen and while it is recognized by my laptop with Win 8.1, it won't sync with iTunes. It worked fine while my laptop had Win 8 but after the update, it quit syncing. Strange though, I downloaded an app directly to my iPod and when I connected it to my laptop again (for recharging if nothing else), iTunes updated itself by including the new app. I also tried syncing wirelessly. Also unsuccessful. I'm about ready to change to an alternate to iTunes if I can't get this situation fixed. Anyone else have this problem and/or a solution?

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
- Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem

You can create your control code in LabVIEW and then use a Call Library Function Node to communicate with your roboteq DLL. The first thing to do though, is check to see if Roboteq offers LabVIEW drivers.
Using LabVIEW: 7.1.1, 8.5.1 & 2013

If purchased from Apple, it will be officially unlocked & will work in India. Be aware, your warranty/support will only be valid in the US, & the phone will only support LTE in North America.

Your question involves too much detailed reading for me, but here's the way to create a custom ringtone for your iPhone on your Mac:
Use GarageBand.
Check Help > Create Ringtone there.

HT5176 I have a disability that limits my keyboarding abilities and speed. A blue tooth add-on keyboard will provide some help. However, I expect to rely on the dictation function. Will "dictation" work in conjunction with a wireless keyboard?

I have a disability that limits my keyboarding abilities and speed. A blue tooth add-on keyboard will provide some help. However, I expect to rely on the dictation function on the ipad 3. Inasmuch as the blue tooth keyboards have no "dictation key, will "dictation" work in conjunction with a wireless keyboard?

I also have admiration for Steve Jobs. I've been a Mac user since 1984.
Given that a wireless keyboard will not have the dictation key, there ought to be some way to work around this issue. All that is needed is some way to toggle between keyboard input and microphone input. Perhaps using AppleScript and/or a hot key, I can set up a voice command or define a hotkey to toggle between the 2 inputs.
What do you think?

Downloading installer works, but installation does not. Nothing happens. New laptop with Win 7 (no earlier Firefox version) & Norton Anti-virus. 3rd Firefox

When I click button to install now, it only restarts the EZ download installer again. I've gone through the process at least 15 times now. I installed FireFox twice before on Windows XP with no issue. I've tried by turning off Norton, computer shut down & restarts, searched Internet Explorer settings for a setting to change, and still no success. I see no one else having this problem in the troubleshooting files, so it must be me.
New laptop with plenty of harddrive space. Internet Explorer version 9.0.8112.16421. Bing search - yech

finitarry,
Thank you for contributing.
I have downloaded the 607 KB "Firefox_Setup_19.0.2.exe" file four times now from at least three different Mozilla websites via EZDownload. I was very careful about that because one time I did it with Norton Anti-virus temporarily disabled. I double-click on the above file and it opens a new window with various "extra" software options and finally arrives at "Install Now" or "Later" buttons. Clicking"Install Now" brings up a Windows Open File - Security Warning box with "Run" or "Cancel" buttons. Clicking "Run" starts the setup file all over. I'm in an endless do-loop. It never installs Firefox and no new Firefox files show up on my PC.
AliceWyman,
Thank you for contributing.
Before beginning this post, I scoured the Support files and especially the "Download, Install and Migration" help files. Most topics close to mine deal with the Norton toolbar, which seems to have been resolved.
Doing some more looking, I found that my setup file was always 607KB, yet the website says it is 19.6MB. When I download it to my Windows 7 laptop, I have gotten a 607 KB size file four times, even though the process did not seem to be interrupted. However, using my Windows XP PC, I get 19.6MB. That could be the problem. I'll transfer the 19.6MB file from the XP to Win7 and see if that works. Thanks. I'll get back to you.
3/24/2013: It worked. Hallelujah!
Someone might want to verify this only happens to me. Maybe it is one of my settings or a fluke or maybe I'm paranoid, but a brand-new laptop with Windows 7 factory-installed stops the Firefox download at 607KB four times in a row (on different days) with no error message. I have to transfer the file from an old Windows XP PC. That sounds to me like Microsoft is trying to prevent the use of Firefox. It could have been something in Windows 7 Home Premium (service pack 1), Internet Explorer (version 9.0.8112.16421 64-bit), Bing, or less likely, Norton Anti-Virus (because I ran it disabled one time - even though Norton labelled the file as medium risk). Just a thought . . .
Right now, I am happily setting up the rest of my system around the quicker, more efficient, more user-friendly, less restricting, Firefox browser. Thank you. =)

How to install and migrate info to a new laptop with Win 8

I got a laptop a few days ago with Win 8.... I am totally lost. I installed FF and it shows on my desktop :)
Now I need to transfer all my data there. I created a new profile in the desktop (Win 7) in case... Then what???
I don't know where to find the info I am familiar with. I use FF 22.
Can you please help me (again!)?
I will have to do the same from an old laptop (Win XP) to the new one.
Thank you very much

Hi JenL27, the Profile Manager lets you see ALL your currently existing Firefox profiles and choose the one you want to use.
Start the profile manager again, select your original profile, and start Firefox using that one. It will be a lot easier to work with your data that way.
IMPORTANT: Do not delete any profiles without making good backups.

I use FF 20.0.1. How can I move my Favories and settings fron a laptop with Win 7 to a new laptop with Win 8. I can't find appdata on the Win 8 PC 8

I want to use Firefox on my Win 8 desktop. i want to move my favorites, settings and add-ons to a new Win8 laptop from my old Win 7 machine. I know how to do it with Win 7 machines by moving my profile. I can't find appdata on the Win 8 PC to move the profile to.
I will also want to do the same with Thunderbird.

The easiest way is to use Sync.
You can find it in Tools / Options.
You'll always have settins, bookmarks, saved passwords, history synced between you computers (and Android devices).

Install win 7 on pc with win 8.1

i just got this 110-430 pc with win 8.1 installed. i replaced a 500gb sata drive with a 1tb sata drive. i reinstalled win 8.1 using a non hp install disk. unfortunately it installed it's own bios. i flashed the bios with the update from the hp site. i reinstalled win 8.1 using hp recovery disks. after several days of usage i realized i did not like win 8.1. i set the bios to boot from disc and disabled fast boot and safe boot. i had a new win 7 microsoft disc and booted from that. i did a clean install. after a couple of hours of stopping and starting and doing installation stuff it went to the starting windows screen. and sat. and sat forever. now windows never starts, not even in safe mode. the machine will not boot from anything but the hard drive. it will not boot from the win 7 disc. it will not boot from either of the win 8.1 recovery discs i have. it will not boot from a disc that will nuke the hard drive and let me start over. any help will be appreciated. thanks in advance.

it appears the key is f11. so i'm able to restore win 8.1. how do i get win 7 to install properly?

Will CS4 install on laptop with 1.8ghz processor

I have a HP Pavilion laptop with the AMD Turion 64 x2 processor 1.8 ghz and 2 gb of ram. I am running windows vista home premium. Does anyone know if this will run the CS4 premium suite. I will be upgrading to that in the next couple of months at work and I also install on my laptop at home so I can practice and learn stuff I do not have time for at work. CS2 runs with no problem. The main programs I would be installing are Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, bridge and the new version of Acrobat. I might try flash too since I have never used it so I can learn it.
Thanks for any help you can provide

it should but you can be the judge of that, just download the trial and see for yourself
