T500 to T540P migration

I previously did a T500 OS system image and everything. The T500 is on it is the last step. I got a T540P as a replacement but I want to migrate the T500 Image system restore on my T540P.

I know it's doable, because I did it BUT the problem is, I think that downloads. It seems that when I go to update software once the image is done the downloads T540P. (Lenovo PM, display and graphics drivers) where the reboot happens I get to Startng Windows screen and 4 bubbles that get together and then pulses. But it still says here. At least, I stopped after like 30 minutes.

Does anyone know if a picture of the previous system can be made and how?

Any information is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hello!

Image the whole OS, the T500 and T540p are miles in addition to being compatible, driver-wise.

so an image/cloning your old drive causes a lot of problems and cost you twice as much

a lot of time in repairs for the new system set up from scratch.

For your files and settings, you can use the file transfer tool in Windows, but it is a laminated tool I

personally, don't like. I've seen too many problems with it over the years. He is not trustworthy. But

When it works as it should, it's a really cool and easy tool for such transfers.

A simple copy of your user records in the new machine covers your files, and if there is

settings, e-mail files, bookmarks, you can find them in the AppData folder. Local for Outlook, roaming

for most other programs.

  • T500 migrate win 7 32 bit to 64 bit

    Hello

    I know that it is possible to migrate 32 bit OS to 64-bit, I called Lenovo support for discs recovery order,

    They said that, in Poland rcovery media will not be sent,

    My question is how to migrate win 7 32-bit to 64-bit?

    How to get the instalation/recovery Lenovo support?

    I'm assuming that the system was built by Lenovo and Lenovo is an OEM distributor and so Lenovo is responsible

    send installation media, but how when Lenovo Poland sends me to microsoft, and microsoft has sent me to the Lenovo OEM retailer?

    Help me.

    Lenovo has maintained a policy that the user can buy the 64-bit support, perhaps you should call again and tell them you want to buy the 64-bit support to the recovery.

  • T61 T500 Migration

    My T61 has not catastrpphically and I had to get a replacement and I took a T500 2055 - A77, it works very well with the drive hard to the T61 uninstall the T61 drivers and install the drivers T500 and your good to go, but the hard disk provided with the T500 was a 160 GB 7200 RPM Fujitsu and I had a 100 GB at 7200 RPM Hitachi / MIN in my T61 I'm looking for "Clone". the hard drive to the hard drive of 160 GB it will be and then have everything I need to space wise I will install Steam and Valve games (Source) based play. TF2 you like Lenovo in any case, I need to find a way to overclock the GPU (please let me know if it is deprecated)

    Hello

    Why not just use the hard drive 160 GB 7 200 rpm, which accompanies the T500 as OS disk and install any apps you want and move your data over the old T61?  It may take a little longer, but you will have a clean factory OS installation, as well as all the apps you want or need installed.

    I would recommend against overclocking any component of your laptop.  I don't really think that they are designed for this kind of heat load, with the exception of models of exotic games, maybe.

  • Open migration to Active Directory directory Windows vs Mac

    OK, so I help my old school to their IT needs, because they do not have a person hired for this role.

    Currently, they have a center where the staff use computers based on Windows 10 10 (systems of Core 2 Duo, especially assembled; all about 3 years) connected to a Windows 2008 Server (from Dell; about a year). As the institution wishes to expand the computers available to their staff (from 90), my suggestion was to move to Mac (probably 11 '' MBAs), with a MacBook Pro 15 "is the duty of the server.

    This migration can be done in one shot and would happen progressively (probably MBAs purchased each year for the next four years, 20-25).

    The current configuration is that there is a local + Admin user configured on each of the 10 Windows PC - based, with all personnel having access to the user not local administrator.

    In order to facilitate the management, I would like to move to the logons on the network, as we begin our migration to a Mac OS environment.

    Should we configure AD on Windows Server and bind it as MBAs, and when to buy us, with the final being the MBP 15 "for server-buying functions, or is it possible we can get the MBP 15" now and use Open Directory and binding the existing 10 10 Windows-PC with the macOS Server?

    NOTE: The school operates Google Apps, and all employees have a Google Apps account with a custom domain name.

    You can't link PCs to Open Directory without using 3rd - Party (page). In addition, depending on the operating system will not work reliable? You'd have to trial it first. Beyond bond and provide a home folder there will be nothing else. No management, no policies etc Open Directory to your PC.

    Support way to achieve this is to use Active Directory and complete with OD to manage your estate of mac only. Again, you can apply GPOS for Mac without 3rd - Party help which can be very expensive.

    Not that it's something that you would consider - although you could do? It may be preferable to go ' all the mac "If your intention is to switch to Mac OS. If your PC using the software that is available only for PCs consider using virtual machines on your Mac to keep this aspect of the school.

  • migrate Photos pictures of the camera

    My brother-in-law (senior senior!) is struggling to migrate images from his camera for Photos.  He has just upgraded its imac 2009 at El Capitan 10.6.8 10.11.6 so this is a big step.  He has done the conversion from iPhoto in pictures, but when he plug his camera, the content opened in pictures, but when he clicks on import, nothing happens.  It is about 3,000 km, so I'm the middleman.  I use the same software and have no problem, so I fight for help.

    Any ideas?

    What camera? He is shooting JPEG or RAW? What happens? Image Capture will import the photos? If you once they are safely on Mac and backed up using camera format command to erase and reformat the card

  • Migration process now broken

    Hello

    I'm migrating a server running 10.8.5 to a new Mac running 10.11.6. It was very well - I took a Time Machine backup, it has migrated to the new Mac, download server, ran Monday, and everything has worked just like that.

    Thursday, since server was updated to 5.2, after migration and download server and running it, he refuses now to update saying I need to run an earlier version of the server or OS X to do the migration. I have no way to get the version that was available for download on Monday but, not that I can see.

    Any advice?

    Solved by Apple support - buy a Mac running 10.11 prior to version 10.11.6 and the App store will download an older version of the server. That can be copied in all and the migration done with this version.

    Phew.

  • Mail of the Mac Mini, iMac with the migration wizard

    I have a mac mini (2014 - El Capitan) that I have used for some time now and I have many mailboxes (30 +) with many stored messages (100s maybe 1000s).

    I recently picked up a 2011 27 iMac which is running OS X Sierra Final Release Candidate due to vision problems.

    Both units are working well but I would like to transfer my boxes to the letters, messages, and the account settings from the Mac Mini to the iMac using Migration Assistant to take advantage of the larger screen.

    Am I able to select only the data for e-mail (boxes letters, messages and settings) to transfer somewhere in the Migration Wizard interface or will it just to start the transfer of all?

    I use iCloud for note, calendars and contacts, but prefer not to use for e-mail.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    WN

    The simplest option would be to use Time Machine to restore your data.

    Other Options:

    You can export the folders you want to transfer the mini using export of Mail under mailbox function in the Menu bar > export a mailbox... Drag to the folder on the desktop on the new iMac and import in Mail. File > import boxes mailbox...

    You can also use a third-party application, Emailchemy to export your Mail on the mini and pull only the folders you want and import. If you have many files, it would be a faster option.

    http://www.weirdkid.com/products/emailchemy/

    Otherwise, you could drag on the whole Mail > V3 folder let Sierra update data. This assumes that you have already started using Mail to Sierra.

    You don't have to use iCloud email to use Apple Mail. I strongly suggest that you use IMAP to service what ever you choose to use.  Comcast, Yahoo, Gmail, AOL, Hotmail (other)

  • Understand migrations from iPhoto to Photos

    After you migrate an iPhoto for photo library, the file extension of the iPhoto Library is changed in .migratedphotolibrary, and my understanding is that the two libraries share the same files through the use of "hard links". I've also read that if one of the libraries is published subsequently, what causes the link between versions of break. Is this true?

    If so, my questions are:

    (1) If hard links break, this means that storage on hard drive required by the two libraries is increased by the size of one of the libraries? If so, who would not take a little time if the booksellers were important, for example 100 GB or more?

    (2) immediately after the migration, what happens if one of the libraries I move to a different folder? Again break hard links? If so, same question as above.

    No - change or deletion of a form of photos a library does not break the hard link and has no effect on the other library - they are totally independent

    1 - Yes

    2. Yes, I believe that to break hard links - travel for sure as a library to another volume break

    Why move a? Usually simply leave you it where it is for several months until you are sure that you need is no longer and then archive and delete

  • Migrating to SATA drive to iMac

    Four days ago my MacPro (2010) died. I have four 3 "SATA drives from 1 to 2 to each of Mac Pro. The computer was for business and personal use. Absolutely everything (including financial information) I have is on these four discs, including redundant copies of some files, but also my Time Machine backup.

    I will have an envelope coming tomorrow which is a RAID box but will be executed in the independent drive with four drives Mode. My 'new' computer is an iMac (2013), that was given to me.  The iMac and the main SATA drive running the same version of the operating system. I need to resolve this issue quickly so I can return to work. In the immediate future, I intend to operate out of the primary SATA drive to catch up, and then transfer when I'll have a good time to transfer.

    My question is the best way to get the entire contents of the primary SATA drive on the iMac's hard drive. I want everything that is on the main SATA drive to put to be on the iMac (including the prefs and hidden folders) of Mac Pro and it would be the same when I booted the Mac Pro.

    Can I use migration utility, clone the drive SATA main to the iMac or even use the Time Machine backup?

    If I clone the drive, I know that I would have to boot from one disk other than the iMac drive to clone to the iMac. When the primary SATA drive is attached, I need to boot from it by holding down the option key at startup key to select the startup disk.

    If I use the Migration utility, it seems I start the iMac, and then run the utility to the iMac of the SATA drive range, which would be connected to the iMac. This would replace all the information on the iMac even though it was the boot drive?

    I printed the information on the Migration of Apple Mac help when transferring to another storage device, but it's not quite clear to me.

  • Where is the Migration Wizard?

    I have three MacBook Pro. My most old, 5-6 years, repeated that she was seriously infected by a virus. I erased it. Now, I restart and OS X Utilities push the info, with four options: restore of backup Time Machine, reinstall OS X, Get help online or disk utility. I time Machine using my current Mac brand new, but I can't restore the old Mac directly by using the new Time Machine copies. It tells me to use the Migration Wizard. Where is he? I have yet a third Mac, a few years more recent than this one, that I can restore from reformatted. Is Time Machine restore possible? How can I find Migration Wizard with these four options on the screen? Thank you.
