• Transfer data from old iMac (2008) to the new (end of 2015)

  I was not able to find a convenient way to transfer data from my old mac (iMac 21 of 2008) to the new. (iMac 27 5K 4.0 El Cap) One thing... I have no ports firewire on the new iMac... then I have no crush on the old... What I've read says that you must use one or the other and both ends must be the same. If anyone knows where I can find "usable" information please let me know. Thanks in advance

  Use a Thunderbolt adapter, FireWire or back up your system to an external drive and migrate to it.

  I just bought an imac 21 "new operating system El Capitan. I would like to plug in and start but would like to migrate some files from my old imac under Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

• Transfer data from old mac but keep news

  Hello

  I want to transfer all of an old iMac that is running Yosemite, on a new 15 "MacBook Pro bought recently.

  iI'm worried that if I did not, I lose old software which I always use (old version inuding if numbers), but if I migrate entirely worried that I'll lose the latest version of osx, new numbers, etc..

  Sorry if this sounds vague. Any help much appreciated.

• Transfer music from iPod classic to the new computer laptop

  Thus, on my old laptop, I had two accounts, one that was mine and that was my mother and my iPod classic has been synchronized to the iTunes on my account. I recently got a new laptop so that my mom could have one for herself, and so I proceeded to delete my account on the laptop. But I forgot to transfer all my iTunes music on a record hard to put it on my new laptop and so no longer have my music (about 3000 songs) on the former. I have all the songs on my iPod, and by logging into my iTunes on the new laptop, I could get my songs bought on iTunes, however, other songs (eg. those I burned a CD) I was not able to recover. Is it possible to transfer all the songs on my iPod to my new laptop?

• Reset used, bad results. ALL copied from old profile to the new file, & FF file now takes 100% of CPU. I can take off safely profile folder?

  Audio delayed or does not stop when you run a video. So I used RESET. Lost bookmarks & homepage & ADBLOCK and who knows what else. So I just copied ALL the files from the old profile on my desk in the new found under troubleshooting. Put everything back, but now FF use 100% CPU when running. I'm sure that I messed up by copying everything but little, I freaked out when I saw that I had lost so much. What can delete the current profile safely folder? (Yes, I feel like a fool and I regret just is go with my screws upward, but I really need help with this).

  I didn't know how to find your answer to what earlier. In the meantime, I used back once again, & found printed the info that I need to copy ONLY the files that I need between previous & new. (Not done yet). But this time, my favorites return. (YAY! "I have a ton of bookmarks). The CPU usage is now reasonable.

  Thank you all for your answers!

• Portable hard drive from old notebook in the new computer.

  Hello

  I have a portable dv-9830us recently bit it.  8600GS got flakey.  I bought a laptop DV7-7000 series and wanted to pass on the old hard drive in the 9830us and put it in the DV7-7000.  When I put the old hard drive in the new laptop, I got a BSOD that flashed by too fast for me to read.  He tried to repair the installation of win 7, which I allowed him to try, but it failed.  I'm thinking that it is a hardware/driver incompatibility related issue, since the new book obviously has different hardware.  Is there a way to get the existing windows installation on the old hard drive to detect hardware on start up again and install new drivers to allow it to boot on the new laptop?  I really don't want to reinstall 4 years worth of things on the new machine.  Both machines are running legitimate Win 7 Home edition.

  Thanks for any help you can offer.

  Hello:

  It may be that you have already discovered, for the reason you guessed.

  The material is too different for Windows to even try to start on your new laptop.

  You are going to have to bite the bullet and transfer your files to your new PC.

  No, it won't, it will transfer personal files and settings. You will have to reinstall your applications from the original installation files or install CDs and DVDs.

  Can someone give me the better, easier and faster method available. At least give me a step by step procedure for this task.

  If you really want to move your applications to the Vista computer, you will need to buy a commercial programs such as Laplink PC Mover that will allow you to move your programs:

• 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.

  ABSG dear,

  Welcome to the MSFT support community.

  Try to start your system in safe mode and disable/uninstall the game for now. If the uninstallation of this game is everything to normal, you will need to install it again. If this is not the case, try another solution.

  Create a new user profile and delete the two accounts as there is a high risk user accounts has been corrupted. Heads up here learn more on how you can fix a damaged user profile and create a new:
