how do you save onto your harddrive???

i'm a numpty with technology, please help??

Everything on your computer is saved on your harddrive.
If you were to upload an image from your mobile to your computer, its then on your harddrive. If you were to save an image from the net (right click - save pic as...) then its saved on your harddrive etc.

not yet!

an trying to save digital pics that are on cd!

please help with an idiots guide to doing this!

i can organise a bus to gg & creamfields & a trip half way round the world but give me a pc & i'm useless!

easy way, use the mouse to select all the files u want (left click and keep it pressed, move over all the files and release when you've put a box around the ones u want) then select 'Copy' from the folder menu.

Then, go to the folder u want to put them in and select 'Paste'

there's loads of different ways

don't say that, you'll confuse me even more! :cry2:

good point... i'm also assuming she knows what a mouse is.

the cd has written on it what it is so i know!

yes i know what a mouse is...its a rodent that squeaks!

ok here goes.. this is a simple step by step guide..
(presumin your using windows XP)

Create a folder on your desktop..
to do this simply right click on the background on your pc and move the mouse to new, then click on folder.

A folder will appear on the desktop with the text highlighted. Simply type what u want the folder to be called or just leave it as new folder.

Press start button on bottom left of screen.
Select my computer
Double click on cd drive.. this will take u into the cd.

Now go to the edit menu at the top of the screen and press select all.. this will highlight everythin on the cd.

Now go to the edit menu again and select copy.

Then close the window by clickin the cross in the top right hand corner of it.

This should take you back to your desktop.

now right click on the folder you created and select paste from the drop down menu that appears.. this will copy everythin from the cd into the folder.

Now feel free to delete everythin you don't want..

I'm sorry if this seems a bit too simple.. just wanted tomake sure that I covered everythin.

Sometimes its easier just to copy everythin and delte what you don't need... thats my excuse anyway

windows me i think

lol.. typical

Instead of pressin the start button and clickin on my computer just double click on the one on your desktop..

I'm sure you'll have figured this out yaself.. lol.. I'm not bein cheeky..

If ya have anymore probs I'll create a word document with pics

don't try too hard, she's already got a bloke

lol.. I know..

I'm just a nice guy..

MoS -
