Someone at - it an easy way to do this? I was happy to see our old light purple iMac right up!

Put them on an external drive, or computers on the network and use file sharing.

    How can I selectively transfer files from an iMac 2009 to a new iMac in 2015? The two running os 10.11.3.

    I do it with a G4 OS Tiger and the Mavericks MacBook by plugging into an Ethernet jack on my router and by enabling the sharing of files on the G4 in System Preferences > sharing.  If items are placed in a folder called 'Public', it can be read by anyone on the network by logging in as a guest. Otherwise, if I login with my user ID on this computer I get access read/write for all of my folders.

  • can I delete old files from the version of the download folder?

    Original title: Deleting files from the download folder"

    I have improved my bit in Windows Vista, there are a large number of files downloaded into my download folder, can I delete the old version files?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    If I understand correctly you want to delete the content in the folder downloads.

    Things that you download are actually Setup. Beams compressed files that are checked in the folder programs.

    If after installing the program these installation files have no real use because all the content has been extracted and copied.

    So you can delete them. But I suggest you keep a backup, because in case you want to reinstall them they will be very practical.

    Hope this information helps. Response to help you further. We are happy to help you.

  • Open one &amp; quot; help &amp; quot; WebHelp file from a Webhelp &amp; quot; Library &amp; quot;?

    Trying to figure out how to set a 'framework = _blank' Webhelp 'help file' accessed from another WebHelp file...

    I was asked to move the part "Overview and help" of my merged WebHelp (which is actually a "document library" not help for an application) so that 'overview and help' is accessible from one > Help button < on the toolbar of the original skin (library) WebHelp.

    Very well, I thought, I'll use a .chm! I thought. I did exactly that. Creates a new help, changed button part overview and aid in a file chm and she goes by adding the button to the navigation bar in the main file of WebHelp (library).

    It works fine, but - here are the best - only on my PC ! I found out that our friend Microsoft ruined things for the use of a chm on a network.

    Back to square one, recreated the "overview and help" file from WebHelp. Now what? This one has me baffled. There must be a way to call the second file (help) WebHelp early (library) WebHelp by using the help button on the navigation and opened it in * a new window *! Right now, by clicking the button help duplicates the toolbar in the topic pane, and that's it. I tried to adjust the _blank in the .skn file and it was good. (Lucky me, I have backups.)

    Anyone have any ideas? I can handle the addition of a javascript script if anyone has one that I can use.

    Thanks in advance!
    -Diana

  • El Capitan 10.11.2 disconnects from the network of Canon printer macbook pro after each use but with the same OS version iMac remains connected

    How to prevent my Macbook Pro El Capitan 10.11.2 going to disconnect my network printer Canon?   My iMac running the same OS version don't unplug and behaves like any normal wireless connection.  I deleted the printer and added back, reset printing, etc. nothing works.  Given that the Mac is 6 "each other and 5 feet of printer during the last test, it must be something specific to the Macbook.  The Macbook identifies the printer after each reboot the printer as printer Canon right, but once the task is completed does not have the printer.  Everything is on the same wireless network. Computer Windows also recognizes the printer and it keeps alive after printing.

    Please read this message before doing anything.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

    The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

  • Moving files from first elements 8 PC for Premiere pro CS5 for Mac

    Hi, I am a new user of Creative Suite CS5 Production Premium on a Mac and I'm trying to open some of my unfinished projects of video from my old computer with Premier Pro. My old computer is a PC and I had been editing HD with first Elements 8 images, but I now have an equipped MacBook Pro which is much more suitable to what I was trying to do on my old computer, and I'd rather finish my projects on my new mac rather than on my old computer.

    I exported my workspace for the videos and the file of the elements, I was working on in folders and them moves on my Mac's hard drive. I read that first Pro CS5 automatically converts files of items when they are open, however, I get an error message about how they are files of a PC version of the elements and cannot be opened. My question is, is it possible to convert PC files first elements 8 into something that can be opened on the first Pro CS5 for Mac?

    PrE is only available for the PC. Unfortunately, there is no compatibility between PC GER (PREL) and PrPro on a Mac project files.

    It was the same with files in project PrPro 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0, because they were PC only and there is no Mac version, up to CS3. The only solution was that could get a friend on a PC with the CS3 version to open/import the PrPro 1.0-2.0 projects inside, let it convert and then make a Save_As. That the resultant project COULD be opened/imported in CS3 Mac. Compatibility is with PrE8 and CS5 - PC.

    Your choice is:

    1.) export rough-edited pre on your old PC files and then import those as assets, to finish editing

    2.) find a friend with CS5 - PC, import/open these project files PrE who, not a Save_As and then move the files to your Mac project

    3.) finishing editing on the PC

    Sorry for the bad news, but good luck.

    If you disable iCloud by car, you will be told the local copies of your files will be deleted, but will remain in iCloud.

    When you delete them from your iCloud drive, the files will be deleted to iCloud.

    iCloud is a synchronization service, not off of storage of the unit.
