How can I selectively transfer files from an iMac 2009 to a new iMac in 2015? The two running os 10.11

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.

    My 150 G hard drive is full - I installed a second drive hard 150 G and need to download my original hard drive

    First of all, note that "Download" isn't really an appropriate word.

    Moving files from one disk to the other does not differ from moving from one folder to another folder on the same drive. There are several ways to do so. The two most common are:

    1. copy / paste

    2. open the source and destination in two instances of Windows Explorer (or my computer) and drag and drop from one to the other.

  • How can I copy image files from my computer to a flash drive

    I copied all my photos in the photo library & am now trying to copy the files from photo to flash player... never did before transfer... How can I do this

    Photo Gallery is just an 'intermediate '. It does NOT store images/photos.
    Images/photos are stored in the folder. Are your looking for in the pictures folder.

    Plug your USB > start > computer > click the flash drive > open folder images > drag and dropn photos images in the flash player.
    That's all.

  • How can I manually transfer files/email to new macbook pro accounts

    I have the new macbook pro retina 13 "and do a clean install from a 2011 macbook pro.  I did basically except accounts e-mail and files.  The two machines are the latest el capitan 10.11.2 worm - two machines have the same version of Mail worm 9.2 (3112).

    I use POP mail - not IMAP - do not use the cloud.  I know the advantages and disadvantages, but it is like that.  I have 5 different email accounts with the files and associated files.

    I have tried to copy the mail and download e-mail to the library files in the same folder on the new computer.  During the opening of the mail on the new computer, he insists on setting up the new account.  I tried to configure an e-mail account.  THEN again by replacing new files in the folder library/mail with the mail from the old computer folder - once, does not work.  I also copied file library/container/apple.com.mail - and all other files related mail can be found in the mail folder.  Once again successfully.

    Yes have you tried importing mail, but this does NOT bring in my records or accounts.

    Any ideas before I wipe the drive and do a migration from scratch - lose the clean installation process.

    Thank you

    The best option is to use the Migration Wizard to transfer your accounts and your files. This will prevent the corruption of the library, which can cause several other problems. And it will not 'eliminate the clean installation state.'
