download music from exterior hard drive to Music and Videos partition
The other day I posted my problem with getting a new computer which had win7 installed. When downloading all my backups which had been on an exterior drive, they ended up in strange places. Suddenly, I had libraries and the library had folders but all the folder were named differently. No more My Documents, my this, my that. Instead they dropped the my, which by itself would not have bee a big deal but then they put my document files into my music folder. Well that got me mad.
I'm a head-hunter and I keep everthing in Outlook Contacts. In those contacts I have links to my candidates' resumes folders. I also have links from my clients to their folders. However, after downloading, having thought I had done everything by the letter, I found the links didn't work. What a mess. I have over 1200 candidates categorized by qualifications. I have clients in a similar situation. Their links don't work either.
Then some very nice people from this site suggested I create partitions and lose the libraries. At first I was frightened. I had heard of partitions but had never been courageous enough to actually try them out. I was also angry with Microsoft because they changed things for no reason. Time is money and I'm losing money when I have to dick around with the computer instead of on the phone head-junting.
Feeling defeated, I bit the bullet, downloaded the software MiniTool Partition. It seemed easy enough but I have run into some snags.
In my need to get organized, I deleted all the music in the music folder under libraries. And I deleted the My Documents folder from there, also. I need to make E:C&E Conn much smaller. Look C: It's huge. I need that space for my pictures. I don't think I need H: Backups because I back up to an external hard drive.
Disk 2 is the external backup, I think. When I double click, I see all my files in there, including my music folder with all my music. How do I get them into F:Music and Videos partition?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, I almost forgot, When I get a new resume in the email, I generally place it in a folder for later reading. Now, I can't place it in E:C&E. I get a message saying something like I need administrator permission. Well, I am the administrator.
Anyway - baby steps. Can you help me to tranfer the music from my external drive to F: Music and Videos?
