This will be the last entry on backing up. I have some fun stuff planned for tomorrow and on Friday so stay tuned.
Below you will find how to actually back up your documents, pictures and music, once you have them organized. Choose your method of back up and follow the instructions below.
For CD back up
~Put blank CD in to CD drive.
~A prompt should come up asking you what you would like to do.
~Click on they type of copy you would like to Data (pictures or documents) Music you would back up under your music CD burner.
~Depending on the program there is usually a prompt. It will ask you what you want to add. Simply click on the files you want to back up and click on add.
~When you have everything transferred, click Next or Burn.
~Viola! You have a hard copy.
For Flash Drives.
~ Put travel drive into the USB slot that should be on the side of your laptop or on the front of your tower.
~ Depending on the travel drive you may have prompts to help you along. Follow the prompts to set it up or go to the next step.
~ Open up my documents.
~ Go to my computer and click open travel drive.
~ Drag and drop whatever files you wish onto the travel drive. You may also transfer music files in the same manner.
For External Hard Drives
~ The instructions are the same as above unless youwish to have thedevice automatically back itself up on a regular

Had to get by here to say hello, and to thank you for all the kind comments. It's a pleasure to "meet" you. I have you added to my alerts, so I'll be back to visit again.

Just curious. Is there anything that backs up the folders in your emailbox? How about backing up your address book? Eegads, I don't want to lose anything! And btw, thanks for this entry.
