*Will you be able to upload folders to Skydrive? I want to create a PHOTOS folder in Skydrive, then upload my 160 individual photo folders to it.
*What is Windows Live Mesh?
*I'd like to make it so any photos or docs I add to my hard drive, automastically go to Skydrive.Is that part of the functionality?what is: SkyDrive Wave 5 M3 (version 16.3)?
This probably isn't an error, but a problem all the same. I've synced my documents to SkyDrive using Windows Live Mesh without a problem. However, to access these files with a web browser I have to go to 'devices', not the more prominent 'SkyDrive' tab in Hotmail. Why is this? Why are there two different SkyDrives and is there any way to get them in the same place?

View 5 Replies View RelatedNow, I understand that once you install the Skydrive PC program, you get a folder on the desktop. Whatever is in that desktop folder, however the contents are organized--that's what gets synched up to the SkyDrive Interwebs.which means that my entire photo collection, all 13GB of it, needs to be copied into the desktop SkyDrive folder.Now, I also have a Windows Live Photo Gallery on here- never used. But I see on there,that there is a thing that says 'publish to SkyDrive.' Does that mean if I hit the button, they are automatically copied there? So I don't have to dupe my collection? I pushed the 'Publish to SkyDrive' button, and it appears grayed out.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHope that someone maybe able to advise or clear up some queries I have!?
1 - I have XP as my current OS, though I have trialled Win 7 and want to purchase it. Will 'Win 7 Upgrade' work over my XP install?
I understand that it will, from forums I've been reading up on, though thought this would be the place to ask for sure!
2 - Once I have purchased and upgraded to Win 7, what if I then want to do a re-install of Win 7 at some stage in the future? Will I have to re-install XP or will Win 7 clean install back over itself with no problem?
May sound like dumb questions, but I've never purchased an Upgrade version of Software before.
I am writing an Access Database which will hold a lot of information about software, books and whatever else I am going to store in there. (Yes, Data entry will take a long time, but not a problem).I have made a query which will search the Books database for Author, and I was wondering how I can make it a little less accurate. So far, It searches for the author using Exact Matching from the input box in the query Code: [Search for author by the name of:] for example, when I want to search for Phillip Pullman, the way that Calibre added the author names, I have to type (Exactly, letter for letter) "Pullman, Philip". Is it possible to make it less accurate so It will bring back results when I search for "Philip" or "pullman" or "philip pullman"?

Sometimes though I seem to get edits (deletions and overwrites) that I really do not want. Is there a better solution for syncing large amounts of files? I am starting to try out using SkyDrive, but I�m not totally comfortable with putting sensitive documents online, also I often use my notebook without any internet access and I would like to be able to have a local copy available. Optimally I would like to be able to have a master drive that both desktop and notebook sync their local versions to.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAll i want is my ability to send pictures via windows explorer with the right click feature, then to resize them and then send them. Now when it gets ready to send it says some stuff about Skydrive, about some photo album and wants me to log in somewhere. I don't want any of that. I want the old tried and true method I had under plain jane Windows Mail before. How do I make WLM 2011 behave like the old WM? I just want to select, resize and send the way it used to work under WM!!!!!
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have SkyDrive on Windows 7 but I have no icon in my toolbar (at the bottom right hand side) just one on my desktop screen. I might have deleted it somehow. But now I notice that my files are not updating when I go to my iPad and launch Windows Live. I go back to make sure fetch is turned on on my desktop SkyDrive, but without an icon, I can't find it or settings, the furthest I get is something about a Group policy might not be allowing it and to see my administrator. I am on a wireless router.

The beauty of Live Mesh, though, is that you can sync any folder anywhere on your hard drive without having to move or copy it to a specific location. You simply tell Live Mesh which folders to keep in sync on each PC, and it does the rest.The new SkyDrive will sync your files. But unlike Live Mesh, it won't sync specific folders from anywhere on your PC.Instead, it creates a folder on your PC called SkyDrive. Any subfolder or file you wish to sync has to be moved to that specific location. So what was once an automated process now becomes a manual and laborious task. It also can easily create problems for applications that want to store content in your Documents folder, for example.I just switched to Skydrive for this! It was a royal pain figuring out how to junction my documents folder on my second drive into my Dropbox folder. Is there any way to avoid upgrading?

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy parents are like old dogs, they are hard to teach. It took me a long time to get them figured out on Windows XP. Just recently their old computer went south. I was able to salvage everything off the old hard drive but rather than to invest in old computer parts and keep Windows XP running, I went with a new computer routeHowever Windows Live Mail 2011 is giving me and my parents headaches.Personally I don't like the SkyDrive feature. For some reason it never works on my Android tablet and some of my parent's family also had trouble getting pictures via SkyDrive. When I use my desktop computer to view the picture, the picture looks like someone smeared Vaseline all over it during resize. The quality didn't degrade like that when used with older email program and the resize option of the past.
Unfortunately it seems Microsoft saw fit to break what worked for more than 20 years and shove in a cloud type system with no easy option to opt out. So my parents are having a hard time using Windows Live Mail 2011.What they do: they go through My Picture folder and select multiple pictures, then click send to emailThey get the option to resize the pictures and then it's sent as attachment.However WLM does not allow photo sent as attachment like this anymoreThe solutions I found so far including making email first, then selecting insert but that does not offer enough resizing option or easy way to mass resize all at once, and selecting attach file does not offer any resize option. The other trick of making a dummy text file then selecting it along the picture worked but that's still extra step for my parents to do and I still haven't be able to "train" them to either make new dummy file for every new picture folder they created or copying over existing dummy file into every new picture folders.Is there a new way found yet, or maybe with WLM 2012 (if it's released very soon) that allows me to completely turn off SkyDrive and let my parent use WLM the same was as older Microsoft email program? Failing that, can Microsoft send someone over to train my parents, at their expense
I have imported my Outlook Express files into Live Mail (from an XP machine to a laptop running windows 7) using the import function in Live Mail. When I look in the Storage Folders there are no files to view. In the Quick Views I am able to read and see unread emails from Outlook Express but not emails that I have read on my XP machine.To do the import I copied the files from the XP machine to a USB stick and then on the laptop browsed to find the files on the stick. The folder containing the OE files in not read only.
