  2. USB Transfer to Laptop

    Hello Judy,

    I suggest you to copy all the files to a flash drive from the laptop.
    You may create a new folder on your desktop and name that folder as per your choice.


    • Perform the steps to transfer the files from laptop to desktop.

    • Plug in the flash drive and wait for it to get detected.

    • Now, open the flash drive and Right Click on the files that you want to transfer and select “Copy”.

    • Now, open the folder on desktop and Right Click on an empty space in the folder and select “Paste”.

    • Similarly, you can transfer all other files.
    As per the file size you can also use an external drive instead of a flash drive and transfer the data.



    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.

    This is a question about transfering photos from Windows 8 phone to Windows XP desktop.

    This is a question about transfering photos from Windows 8 phone to Windows XP desktop. I have windows 8 on Nokia Lumia 822 phone. I have windows XP on 7-yr old Dell desktop. I believe the only way to move files might be with cable connection between ph
    & desktop, & using Windows Explorer on desktop. But XP does not recognize the phone, so I can't use Explorer to move the files. I have tried downloading related software from Microsoft; I believe my desktop is too old to use any software tools. I have tried
    using Control Panel / Add Hardware / Add Harware Wizard. The wizard shows the Lumia on the list of devices. When I go through the steps offered by the Wizard, it ends with "Windows successfully loaded the device driver for this harware but cannot find the
    hardware device (Code 41)". Why does the wizard show the Lumia on list & say it can't find it? The photos are stored on an SD card in the phone. I assume that I can remove the SD card, insert card in reader, connect reader to desktop by USB cable, & move
    from card to desktop using Windows Explorer. But this seems more cumbersome that it should be. Is SkyDrive an option? I believe my desktop is too old to work directly with SkyDrive. Somehow I have impression it may be possible to work with SkyDrive indirectly
    through IE. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to help my desktop see my phone. Does anyone have any suggestions about workarounds.

    How do I transfer data from desktop to Laptop ?

    Hi,

    I am travelling & taking my desktop's 500 GB Hard Disk ( with data & OS ) with me. Once I reach my destination I will be buying a Laptop there & want to transfer the data from my desktop's HDD to Laptop's HDD.

    Without an access to desktop there, how do I transfer data from my desktop's HDD to Laptop's HDD ?

    Thanks
