I do come here often, so I can help, but I think you'll find C.A. easy to use.
OK thanks. How do I transfer data from my old computer (with Windows) to my new (with Ubuntu)? I was hoping via CD but retrieving data from the CD Drive in Ubuntu appears impossible. Email maybe the only way but there is a limit.
Your CD drive isn't working? Is this an internal drive? What happens when you put in a CD?
The CD Drive is working. The only thing I've put into it is the DVD to install Ubuntu. Unlike Windows, Ubuntu does not have a D Drive where I can retrieve data from. I don't know what will happen if I put in a CD containing text or spreadsheet documents, hence my question.
When you put a CD into the drive, Ubuntu will display a icon in the menu bar, as well as displaying the location in the file browser (nautilus). In Windows the drive always displays, even when it is empty, but in Ubuntu it only displays when there is a disc in the drive. Check it out.
