    Thank you Kevin for your clear instructions and step-by-steps. You made me feel confident I could do this and I accomplished the task. Your tutorial made it a breeze. My only critique (and this was my fault) was when you transferred files of course (as a demo) it went by very quickly. My files with lots of pictures and videos took almost two hours. Good spokesman!

    Thanks for reaching out to us. iTunes music files can be transferred over like other files, and should be in your music folder. If you have playlists, they must be exported before they can be transferred. Click File > Library > Export Playlist to export. Click here to view some official information from Apple: support.apple.com/guide/itunes/save-a-copy-of-your-playlists-itns2998/12.9/windows/10. We hope this helps!

    This does not clone your old hard drive. All programs will be needed to installed on the new PC. This only transfers files.

    I am currently searching for methods to move files from old Windows computers (Vista, Win7, etc., towers, laptops, netbooks) to a new Win 10 tower. This is the only product I have found, so far, that will permit multiple transfers between computers with a USB cable (and an included auto-transfer program), AND provides a demonstration video to show the user how it is done, AND provides user support. I ordered my 2.0 version from Amazon and waiting for it now. I have tried two other USB cable products that I could not get to work between my Win 7 and Win 10 Dell tower computers. If it works a easy as the instructional video shows, this "get out of Windows 7" process will be a snap. and much cheaper than the price quoted by the Geek Squad.

      Hello David,
      Thanks for reaching out to us! Glad to see you're interested in our Transfer Cables. I would imagine a lot of folks are in the middle of, or planning a transfer from Windows 7. Our USB 2.0, and 3.0 Transfer Cables come with everything you need, and provide unlimited access for installation, and transfer usage. I hope it will be useful to you!
      We also have a written article that goes along with the video, it has other helpful information you might want to check out: plugable.com/2019/12/13/plugable-usb-transfer-cables-step-by-step-instructions/.

    Thanks for reaching out to us about this! Unfortunately not. User profiles, settings, passwords, or other personal adjustments cannot be transferred over, and must be made on the new/other computer. On a side note, you may want to use a password manager app which can be a big help! Feel free to reach out to us directly if you have further questions about our Transfer Cables: plugable.com/pages/support/.

    Hi Your video is very informative and clearly understandable. I couldn't get an original cable, this one I could purchase is a Chinese product, I didn't know if it needed a software or a product key before using it. It became clear to me after watching your video. I have already torn its plastic cover. I had thought it must have its manufacturers address or website inside the plastic but that is not therein. I can't return it as the packed plastic is torn. Pls suggest me what should I do. Though I'm thinking to go to the shop where I purchased that yesterday, I'm pretty sure it is not going to happen. Pls help me.

    Very good video and explanation. Right to the point. I have one question though. My old laptop has 1 SSD drive for everything. My new computer, an AIO, has both a SSD as the primary- C- and a second HHD-D- as the secondary. The SSD is 256 GB and the HHD is 1 TB. How do I differentiate what to put on each? I know I want videos, pictures & music, my 3 largest files (folders) on D to not use up space on the C drive. Also, HOW do I divide them up? Do I transfer everything to the new computer, then move them to the appropriate disk? Thanks for any help.

    • @Plugable
      @Plugable  2 года назад

      You may want to use the Drag & Drop mode which is manual, and let's you drag and drop individual files and folders over. This mode automatically shows all available hard drives (In the Transfer and Sync Modes, you need to click the button to Add Folder to access other drives). This could help you with organizing things. Typically people will leave the SSD for Windows and other applications, and use the larger drive for pictures, music, and other files. It may be easiest to transfer files to the large drive first, and then manually move things around later.

      New computer will probably have both usb 2.0 and usb 3.0, so you should be able to use the usb 2.0 version of the Plugable product. That is what I needed to do when I transferred files from my older Dell laptop to a more modern machine. It worked just fine.

  • @joge5884
    @joge5884 2 года назад

    Appreciated much of the presentation. Would have appreciated clarity/more detail on a few points. (1) How to determine if you have 2.0 or 3.0 USB; which type to order if you remain unsure; (2) Would have appreciated a quick demo on each of the 4 types of transfer data techniques since you're here to showcase the product; (3) Why is "My Computer" unchecked for the data transfer?; (4) Glossed over the "...but there were errors" and VIEW LOG. What is to be done about those files?; (5) you noted that files transfer to the same location on the new computer; is that with all 4 of the transfer types of just the file transfer type you used? Here is what I appreciated from your presentation: the clarity for details that were provided; the product key information (particularly zeroes; not letter Os); highlighting that data is copied and not moved; noting several times (and yet someone missed it) that programs are not copied; those need to be done manually; and where exactly to find the download link for systems without a cd tray. Overall a great presentation, thanks.

      No it will not transfer your emails, because they are in the program folder of your e-mail program.
      If you export your e-mails as files, you can copy them like any other file.
      If you have a disk drive on each of your computers, you can use the disk on both.

    Does appdata get moved over as well? Like Minecraft or Steam games?

      Thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunately games do not get transferred over and must be installed using the original discs, installation files.

      There is an "Appdata" folder which can be transferred over using the "Drag and Drop" files method of the Bravura software. When using this method make sure to enable the "Show System Folders" and "Show Hidden Folders" checkboxes. This folder is in this following directory C:\Users\Username\AppData

      Hello and thanks for reaching out to us!
      With respect, no you wouldn't be able to. Each computer would have to be on to start the software and establish the connection. I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out to us directly at: support@plugable.com with any other questions or concerns.
      Thank you,

      In short: no. It’s kind of like what happens when you take a stamp and ink and stamp down on a sheet of paper. It’s just a copy of the original. Hope that makes sense.

    Do you recommend using syncing function prior to transferring?

    • @Plugable
      @Plugable  2 года назад

      Not unless you need to. Syncing will make both computers have the same files in the folders you've chosen. This would likely make for more work.

    Hi Kevin! At about 5 minutes you describe a product key to enter. Is there an accessible way for blind and visually impaired folks like me to get this key? 😎 If not, it would be nice if the software could register itself based on weather the cable is plugged in? Perhaps using the "Vendor" and "Device" IDs? That would help me, and have the nice side effect that nobody would have to enter a key, just plug in the cable and BOOM! I'd like to get this cable, but want to make sure I can use it first, so thank you for any help you can give. I have been using your folding keyboards for years, and when I needed to upgrade my SSD, I got an NVME to USB device by Plugable. I've rarely found products as well built, even my 2017 Macbook with the messed up keyboard 😎. Thanks for your vids and time. P.S. A lesson I learned very painfully is that the small CDs won't work in drives that don't have a tray, IE apple Mac and Super Drives. Go directly to the download link, do not pass go, ... I understand the software is windows based, but thought I'd throw it out there for users ov Bootcamp or VMs. HTH.
