Is there a service that will come in and transfer my old computer files to the new one and set it up?

I don't know if Amazon will do it, but most small computer stores (mom&pop shops) will do it for relatively cheap. If you want to go to a big box store, check out Best Buy's geek squad although they are a bit more expensive than a small shop usually.

I have been moving Money 2004 from one computer to another for the last 4+ years. Just load the CD and to move your data, just do a backup of the files from one computer and then do a restore on the new one.

You can migrate the drives to a new unit but there are a few things that get lost. see this tutorial: http://www.synology.com/en-us/support/tutorials/484

It should work very well to copy files onto, and then load them into your new machine. Pretty much all files, pictures, documents, etc., should transfer nicely. As far as software installations, I don't think it's a good idea. You'll need to reinstall Microsoft Office, Chrome browser, Picasa Photos, and so on and on. Unless someone knows of a way to transfer these that I'm not aware of, I sure wouldn't attempt to do anything except reinstall programs with a fresh start. I don't think it would be a good idea to use any type of "backup" program to do that transfer either, unless you carefully experiment first. Make sure the backup software installs and runs on both computers, then try one small folder to make sure it goes smoothly. Personally, I'd use a straightforward copy of the files to and from the drive, either manually or using a program such as Second Copy. (I highly recommend that program.)

Yes it is, and I thought I could see them in my computer bbefore transfering them, but I guess if it can be done I will use have to learn how to do it.

You will need a computer to hook up to your old hard drive. Then you can see on the screen what data you want to save.

Yes, but monitor needs to be hooked up to new computer - where you are transferring all your data to so you can see prompts, etc.

No need to create a new account...just call the 1~800 and they will assist you in transferring your data service to the new device...be sure to have yoir old device and internet receiving device when you do it.

Yes, with a caveat. I am not possitive, but i think seagate made a utility to do this. Since it contains your OP System, you cant just transfer files over. Here is an article on how to do what you want. http://lifehacker.com/5837543/how-to-migrate-to-a-solid-state-drive-without-reinstalling-windows

I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish here. I'm guessing that you are moving the complete old PC to a new PC. PCmover will move all of your software like Office and Quicken to your new PC. Your software will be fully functional in the destination PC. The new PC will be a carbon copy of the old one. I have done this several times and I'm still impressed how PCmover copies everything to a new PC. I hope this is the answer to your question. You can also call Laplink support to get more answers. They are very helpful when you call.

Your question is pretty general, so it depends. YES if you are talking about moving or copying things like all documents, music, photos, videos,etc. NO if you mean transferring everything on one computer to another, including software/programs, because there are always different versions of those for PCs and Macs.

You can transfer any document or photo from your old computer, just attaching a portable DVD writer to you new computer. Another way is using icloud.

Open windows start, then you go to Accessories, then you go to Windows Tools. At the bottom of that menu you'll find "easy transfer, open and transfer your files...

If the reference is to data transfer (ie documents), yes. Other data, like bookmarks and contacts, etc., can be imported on the new system for whatever programs you are running. If this does not answer your question(s), please be a bit more specific when referring to "transfer". I was able to transfer all my documents, photos, spreadsheets and other files using this cable. Good luck.

You can transfer your documents and many files like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc, BUT - you will have to install programs.

Yes, as long as your not transferring more then 230gig to the new drive. As far as transferring all your info they make a bunch of cloning software. BUT! I highly recommend just reinstall everything from scratch and only transferring what you need from your old to new drive. It will make it run a lot smoother and cleaner.

You will not be able to use the direct copy feature to do this as it requires the drives to be the same size. You can connect the device to a computer and copy the data to that first and then to the new drive.
