• Range of difference for 2008 old model extreme base A1143 vs new model EPA airport?

  Is difference in range for 2008 old A1143 vs new model EPA Airport extreme base model?  I have old AE in brick and metal home with "good enough" coverage  Extend the significant new Airport Extreme?  Thank you!

  Range normally would be about the same thing... because the power of diffusion of wireless routers is limited by law... and each manufacturer seems to work their routers at full breath.

  But, because of the age of the A1143 AirPort Extreme, he's probably lost 30 to 40 percent of its performance, maybe more.

• Pictures on a new iMac won't start - he's trying to fix the photo library after the migration of my old iMac.  The two are running El Capitan

  Photos on my new iMac won't start - get an error message after trying to fix the photo library.  I just migrated all of my old iMac a new aid of Time machine backup.  Both are running OS 10.11 (El Capitan).

  Get an error message after trying to fix the photo library.

  What does this error message say?  Photos crash or exit gracefully?

  Where your iPhoto library that Library stored? In your pictures folder, or on an external drive?

  Try to copy the library of Photos directly without Time Machine. Connect the two Macs using your network and copy the old Mac to the new library, well as signed in on your new Mac.

  Then try to open this copy in Photos.

• I have an old camera a Canon AE1 since the 1970s. Any adapter to fit the old for the new cameras lens

  Can anyone give me any advice on whether I can buy an adapter to fit my old lens on newer model cameras. I have 3 old lens that has worked with the old AE-1 a 55mm, a 35-70mm and a 100-200mm. Any thoughts would be surely appreciated.

  Do not waste your money on an adapter even if they exist. Much better to buy modern lenses that incorporate Auto Focus. The new cameras have an accent like a split screen or whatever your film body has help.

• Moving from my old iMac 27 "to a new

  What is the best method to move all my setting, applications and files from my old iMac 27 "to my new iMac 27"?

  Thank you

  Back it up to an external USB drive. Then, connect the hard drive to the new Mac and restore your stuff in the same places where they came from. Make sure that the new admin account, you create the new Mac has the same user name and password that your the one used on the old Mac. This avoids issues with permissions on the data transferred.

• Old iMac to the new iMac?

  I have posted before, but I am now ready to move from my 2007 24 ' iMac to a model of 5K of 2015. The old operating system is leopard (10.5.8) and the news is... most recent .the (Sierra). I was told to join the former backup disk, Time Machine USB 2.0 on my new computer before the first start and following the guests. Of course the software may not be compatible, but I would like to transfer as many files over the old machine to the new as possible so that I can remove the 24 ", or at least re - goal there.

  This is the best method. Should I add some steps of the process or do something else? I was aware of something special during this process? Please notify.

  Thank you!

  Congratulations Kort! Yes, that would be the best way. But this the first time you start your new Mac. After that, it will create a second home folder issue.

• Can I use my old machine of time that has been used for an old iMac 2010 to retrieve files on my new iMac?

  My old iMac 2010 is ready to retire and I want to recover all my files to an old time machine to my new iMac with the retina 5K.  I haven't started the configuration with my new iMac yet but I wonder if I can recover my files from my old machine of time.  I'll use a new external hard drive as the time machine for the new iMac well.  How can I recover old files from my old machine of time if the new time machine is connected to my new iMac?  Help, please.  Thank you very much!

• Passwords Firefox inside old iMac to MacBook Pro new

  Hello:

  I tried to use the add-on, exporting password. He works for export from my old iMac but when I tried to install exporter of password on my new MacBook Pro running Firefox v37.0.2, I get the message "password exporter could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 37.0.2.".

  So . . . .

  Is there another way to export and then import Firefox passwords?

  Thank you

  Thank you!

  I've used both and they both work.

  First of all, I transferred the files logins.json and key3db of my old Firefox my Firfox again on the new MacBook Pro. Alto! It worked!

  Then I registered Firefox Sync. It will be the end of my problems to keep up-to-date on both computers.

  BTW. I discovered that both computers running Firefox v37.0.2. Apparently the problem is with the password exporter. It cannot be installed on Firefox v37.0.2, but if it is installed before you upgrade to Firefox v37.0.2 that he continues to work.

  Thanks again!

  Command-r does not work on a 10.6.8 system, you would need 10.7 Lion or better to do. If you try to install a new system and that you have already downloaded, then go to your Applications folder and double-click "install OS X...". »
