Hello there,
Excuse the extremely low level of 'techxpertise' - just made that word up! - that I have but I really don't use it (CorelDRAW 12) much myself. But I need to be able to transfer it onto our new computer so I can print all our CorelDRAW DVD labels, covers etc.
I can't get hold of the original disc as it was installed when living in France some years ago! It may be in a box in a barn in storage there but I can't be sure. Anyway, I've just bought a new computer (here in the Highlands of Scotland!) and have had great difficulty transferring ANYTHING at all - the old computer's OS is a pretty old xp, WITHOUT Windows Easy Transfer! So I'm trying to transfer everything bit by bit, programme by programme, but I can't find instructions as to how to do that with Corel, only how to transfer a Workspace into an already-present Corel programme. The whole thing is a problem right now as the transferred files from the old computer, currently on an external hard-drive, are .DAT and the new Windows Vista's WET is expecting .MIG files!
Once again, apologies if this seems very tech-ignorant!
Any help,/advice would be hugely appreciated.
Jonathan
That won't work.......
What you have to do is first uninstall from the old computer, then re-install on the new one, WHILE CONNECTED to the internet for both steps.. This will keep your count of legally-installed copies correct.
THEN you can copy over graphics files etc....
You can't "transfer" the program, necause WIndows doesn't allows it. You should uninstall the program on one computer, then install it on the second computer. Ob both computers you should have internet connection and use your username and password for login to Corel
