Yes! Simply export your file using the export link, save it directly to your new program. Make sure you include all notes, photos and documents (the progrM will ask if you wish to include thse) and your new program will then have everything includex! I had no problems with this. Also check out the HELP function. This will walk you through it step by step.

I could never get the Prolific drivre to work under 64 bit WIN7. I don't know about WIN8. Try a converter that uses the FTDI Driver.

It didn't come with a disk or anything, if that's what you mean. I just put it in the USB port and I think it did install something, but it doesn't have it's own special program or anything; my files just go into Windows Media Player.

The readme file isn't clear (at least to me) that this is about building on the fly playlists with just the mp3 player. The way I read it this is about building playlists without using WMP on your computer and then transferring them to the player...am I missing something?

I don't have the game, so I can't promise that this has worked for me, but it HAS worked for me with many other games. Find the folder where the game was installed (probably something like C:\Program Files\The Learning Company) and find the executable file (it should look like the desktop icon you click on to start the game). Right-click the icon and choose Properties. This should give you a small window with 4 tabs. Near the top of the General tab it should say "Type of file: Application (.EXE)". If so, click on the Compatibility tab, then check the box that says "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and choose "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" from the drop-down list. Click OK at the bottom to close, then try your desktop shortcut. If it still doesn't work, go back and try setting the compatibility mode to Windows 98, but Oregon Trail 5th edition has been said to work with XP, so I would try that first.

Can you elaborate? If you have Windows XP or newer it should just install automatically.

I don't know about Windows 8.1 or know why it would be different than anything else. On my old XP machine, I just follow the single-sheet instructions that came with the DVD. Launch the Start.pdf file at the DVD's root directory and Acrobat (mine is Adobe Reader XI) shows you covers of the issues gathered in decades or years. Do an Edit/Advanced Search and be sure you're searching the file MAD1.pdx file and tell it what you're looking for. I tried "put*on" and after spinning the disc a few times it brought up the parody of the movie Patton in the Jan 1971 issue. Surprisingly, the index seems to include words that are in the (hand-drawn) cartoons which means some poor guy had to manually type all those in. When I tried just the Find, I didn't get anything useful. I can't imagine what would be different if you were using Win8.1. Do your search from within the Adobe program, not some Windows search (which may not break through compressions, crypto, or encodings - I don't know). [P.S. All of your question didn't come through, ended with "but didn't know ho"]

Basically, none. I had a CD with games on it and installed it. I downloaded Adobe Reader off the Internet. I had previously purchased MS Office Professional 2010 ... but would you believe Microsoft would not allow me to install from my CD??? I had to purchase a new key code from them (after purchasing the program for $400+), in order to use it on my new PC! Same with MS Money: my product key code was not "recognized", even though I had never installed it on my old PC!! So I bought Quicken. Norton 360 for 3 PC's was no problem, thank goodness!

Thanks Matt! Let me know if you get WoO to play. Would adding a flash drive have any benefit??? I too contacted Sony and got transferred 3 times - never getting any help from anyone I talked to.

Not unless you want to upgrade your os to windows 8 or your 9 installation doesn't,t allow you to open an skf file by double clicking it. There is very little difference between the two versions otherwise.

It's rare to find a program that operates under Windows that will work if you simply copy program files from one hard drive to another. For one thing all files aren't necessarily installed into the same directory. For another most make changes to the registry that wouldn't be made if you simply copied files.I 'think' DirectX is something you download from Microsoft or other sites and isn't necessarily on your game disk. Check this site for more info (and the files) http://www.softwarepatch.com/tips/howtodirectx.htmlCheers

Try to do it on a windows 7 or any other lower version. Because doesn't run properly on windows 8. Also find the right version of bytes on the installation folder.

For this particular package you can download the disc/games to your computer.. HOWEVER, I also purchased the next package: WMS Slots Zeus II and on that one the disc has to be in the drive at all times to work.....I tried reinstalling it several times to no avil - it was just produced differently... But again, on Reel 'em in, once you've installed from the disc, you're good to go.. Hope this helped & have fun :)

No. Programs need to be installed in the appropriate folders by an installation program on the computer you intend to use them on. The files will all be on the cloned drive, but Windows (if that's the operating system you have), can't find them unless it put them in the proper locations.

I have an older computer with an XP operating system. I needed a simple way to load files without burning DVDs. I then took the flashdrive to my new computer, with a Windows 7 operating system and uploaded the files to the new computer. It was a piece of cake to use. I know your question involved using it on a DELL computer, but the brand name is actually a secondary to the operating system, i.e. Windows XP. I am thoroughly pleased with my purchase, and think you will too. PS - I also loved the price. Hope this helps Sarah! Enjoy Spring!
