Emailing Microsoft Word files

I work on a PC and save Word files to a stick. When I was working on two PCs, it was a matter of putting the disk in the internet computer and attaching the file in the usual manner (hotmail). Now my internet computer is a Mac and I cannot bring up or send the files stored on the disk?

You have to click on the little paperclip icon in most email application (web or Mail, Entourage, etc) and then navigate to the hard drive (in your case the jump drive) and find the file to attach. In some case you need to navigate all the way up and look for a listing to .volumes.

Acer Aspire 3 showing unecpectted error. File windowssystem32winload.efi. Error code : 0xc00000e9

Ok if you cannot get to any other screens you cannot get to the normal recovery options, this looks like the file has corrupted in some way, your not saying which version of windows your using, if its windows 10 and you have access to another PC you can download and save an ISO version of windows that you can then put on a USB stick, or DVD, or if you have a Zalman drive you can use this, boot up from this disk and you can attempt the repair options if this does not work then you will have to wipe the dive and reinstall. You can also use your ACER recovery disk to do the same if you used the provided tool, to create them, to restore your machine

How to reset a windows hp computer7

hello.
no pc stated. 1984 to now. vast PCs
reset what?, there are vast numbers of resets.
avoid that word, its meaningless.... (my DISKTOP even has reset button, see?)
The word reset can also mean reset a working w7 back to defaults.
(we can talk resets all day. )

did you mean now to reload W7 ? fresh..

1: if the PC is newer, say under 10 years old; is it?
the F11 key at power on runs the free install virtual disks off the HDD. (the real PH site covers all that, need a link?)

2: was unstated PC , day 1 , with W7 or not?
if not .its a upgrade or down grade, say which now if either.

3: w7 over w7 is a refresh or full install.
There are only 2 (3 counting microsoft)
A: F11 magic key , only works if original HDD is ok and not replaced..
B: the HP media kit. you buy them and install it from HP.
it can be CD/DVDs or memory stick installs.
C: ms disks. or sticks or ISO files. all will be missing HP drivers and HP apps. this is last resort can be a lost day of pain, (ask)

here is the offical HP page, not not spam bs like above 800 junk.

My psp memory card dont let me put stuff in

you may have to format the card. Also make sure your card is not placed in the lock position.
    How to Fix a PSP Memory Stick
  1. Step 1 Upgrade your PSP's Firmware (its operating system) before doing anything else. Firmware 5.0 solves many software problems that are encountered with older memory sticks. You can upgrade it by simply connecting your PSP to any wireless connection through its WiFi. Once a connection is established, the PSP will update itself automatically.
  2. Step 2 Check to see that your memory stick's plastic tongs, the small sticks that separate each connection, are straight. If one is bent, your PSP will not recognize the stick.
  3. Step 3 Remove your memory stick if it still does not work. Insert it into a PC with a memory stick slot. You will most likely be able to see all of your saved files. If so, continue to the next step. If you still cannot see your files, then your memory stick is defective, and it is not the PSP's fault.
  4. Step 4 Copy your files from the memory stick to the hard drive.
  5. Step 5 Format your memory stick using the "Format Disk" option in Windows. Open Windows Explorer, and find your memory stick listed in the "Drives" section. Right-click on the memory stick, and click "Format." Follow the on-screen instructions in the windows that pop up.
  6. Step 6 Insert your memory stick into your PSP. It should recognize the disk now. However, you now need to format the memory disk again with the PSP.
  7. Step 7 Go the PSP main menu, and select "Settings." Then select "Format Memory Disk."
  8. Step 8 Put your memory stick back in your PC, and return the files you removed earlier. When you reinsert the stick into your PSP, it should now see all the files.

I bought a acer aspire 5542g with window 7 on it

You will have to boot of the XP install disk and reformat a FULL NTFS format, first, that will enable you to wipe the drive and install XP. To save an email, or any file to a flash drive, simply copy/paste or drag and drop onto the drive, the drive must be Formatted first, format FAT32. OR when asked for location to save, point it to the flash drive as normally done.

There should be no issue transferring documents between PCs using flash drives, so long as there is no issue with compatibility and the proper techniques are used. However, it is unclear exactly what equipment and software versions are involved, as well as the methodology you are using to "transfer" the documents.

Please indicate the OS of your PC and your laptop, as well as the versions of MS Works being used on both. Also, if you could describe the steps you take in detail it would be helpful. For instance, when you "loaded a couple of documents from" your PC, was this done by copying using a My Computer window, or by opening and saving to the Attache while in Works? Further, when you attempt to transfer them to the laptop, are you using My Computer, Explorer, or attempting to open them in Works? There is a difference in the potential issues based on the methods you are trying to use - this is why I ask.

I believe, also, that your issue with the file that "should be" on the laptop (older version) is a separate matter, and we should deal with that once we have resolved the transfer problem.

As a matter of general information, if the two systems have different operating systems (OSs) and/or different versions of Works, these would represent the most common contributing factors to an issue such as that you describe. However, I think that, barring an issue with incompatibility, which should only be created by older versions, e.g., we should be able to resolve the matter for you.

Additionally, I would suggest that you do not open and/or save files directly from the program (Works in this case) to/from the flash drive. This can create a great deal of confusion not only for us as users, but also for your computer!

Generally, you should be able to open a My Computer window (or Explorer, if you are more comfortable with that window), go to the drive and see the files there with the relevant file statistics. Then open another My Computer window, which you use to navigate to the place where you want to save the file, such as My Documents, and perhaps a folder within that area. It should then be as simple as a drag and drop between the two windows to duplicate and/or move the files from the flash drive to the hard drive of the particular machine. (This would work in reverse for the original process of copying the file from the PC hard drive to the flash drive.)

In other words, do not attempt to right click and open the file from the flash drive. Instead, right click, drag the file to the location where you want it to be on your laptop, and choose Move or Copy to place the file on the laptop's hard drive.

Please post back with additional information as needed, and we will work you through this issue. The fact that both Attaches are demonstrating the same characteristics, however, suggests that there may be a compatibility issue. Have you successfully used either or both of these drives on both machines before?

In regard to the file you believe should already be on your laptop, you can search for the file, as it may be simply misplaced or named in a manner other than you expect. Click your Start button, click Search, and complete parameters as you feel are appropriate for the file you seek. The results should return in a search results window, and hopefully your file will be listed there for you.

If this information assists you in resolving the problem, please take a moment to rate the solution at a "FixYa" level. If you do not feel that you can rate at a "FixYa", please post back with more information regarding what has occurred subsequently and/or more details regarding the situation, and I will gladly help you until we have reached a definitive solution. Thank you for using and rating FixYa!
