After reading all the answers and re-projecting to 4326 from the
original .shp file (using save as..), i think that my problem is the
projection of my .tiff data, because all my files in WGS84 projects at
approximately the same coordinates (-92,35 as Brad said) but my raster
file of the same area is at (25,35), so if i want to project all files
at this CRS i have to "move" somehow my .tiff file at the above
coordinates (and not the opposite as i was trying so long), am i right
or wrong? Is there a way to change the coordinates that my tiff
projects? I tried "on the fly" and by specifying the 4326 CRS from the file's properties but that
doesn't changed anything, 25,35 remains. <br>
<br>
Thanks all for the answers, I know i am a bit trouble! <br>

If you need to do<br>> some sort of spatial analysis using layers in different CRSs you<br>> normally need to do (2), because many tools in QGIS require layers to be<br>> in the same CRS.<br>> <br>> > I guess it's not that simple to change the coordinates in a<br>> > file, so i would like to ask how it is possible to manage this so that<br>> the two<br>> > files will come in the same coordinates.
