Applications didn't transfer from old hard drive to new hard drive

My MacBook Pro recently got water damage but I managed to save the hard drive.  After purchasing a new MacBook Pro I used Migration Assistant to move the contents from my old hard drive to my new one.  Everything transferred except for a few of my applications such as Adobe Lightroom, Microsoft Word, which are the more important ones that are harder to replace, as well as my apps from the app store which isn't a concern.  Since I do not want to purchase Microsoft Word again or go through the hassle of getting Lightroom back on here I was wondering if there is a simpler way to transfer these?
Thanks

No, don't use Migration Assistant from a PPC to an Intel Mac. See Basic Guide to Migrating to Intel Macs here:

    Hi Argyll2bikes,
    Welcome to the forum.  It unfortunate that there is so much extra work needed before we can supply you with telephone service.  I am sorry about this.  As you have placed an order for service it is incorrect for us to tell you that you need to get permission from the landowner to cut down the tree.  This should all be handled between BT and Openreach.
    I would like to get your details so I can find out exactly what is going on here.  Please drop me an email via the 'Contact Us' link in my profile. (click on my name and you will find the link under the "about me" section). Include your BT account details and the link to this thread.

    Hi showe and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    Do you know if your BlackBerry Bold 9900 is activated on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) through your work? If so, this would be why you are unable to restore your contacts to the device.  As contacts are set to wirelessly synchronize and backup using the BES, they are write protected when restoring data.
    If you are not activated on a BES, let me know.
    Thanks.

  • Transfer from old Xperia Go to new Xperia Z1

    The Sony Companion program in my PC says that to be able to transfer contacts and the rest from my Xperia Go to my new Z1 I need to download the app Xperia Transfer Desktop to my old phone. But the old sim card has stopped functioning, since I got a new one. And they're not the same size, so I can't use the new sim card in the old phone.
    What do I do to get all the stuff from my old phone to my new?

  • File transfer from old G4 iBook to new MacBook Pro

    I hope this is the right place for this post/question....
    I am trying to do a file migration from my old iBook G4 PPC to my new MacBook Pro. The iBook does not have the migration utility and when I put the new OSX DVD in from my MacBook (as instructed to do in the Migration utility's steps) it does not read it (presumably because it is not the right processor, etc) so I had no luck doing the computer to computer transfer. I do not have the "Time Machine" utility on the old computer and using my regular back-up did not allow me to migrate using the "other drive" option (MacBook never saw the drive in the utility, but does mount it and allow me to access it as a drive). I can do this the hard way, file by file, but I have a couple of concerns that I want to check on before I spend hours going down a bad path.
    1) I have thousands of songs in my iTunes... can I drag and drop these? What about my play lists?
    2) iPhoto - I have thousands of photos - how do I easily transfer those over in their respective scrapbooks?
    3) Bookmarks, I can deal with by trying to find the file and importing them, or doing it manually, although there are a lot of them. Easier way?
    4) Outlook - I can try to export and import using the built in features, but not sure if that will pull all the folders and structure.
    Those are the big ones... I have had this computer for 8 years, so it is pretty embedded in my life and I am hoping for a utility or something that will help this process.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    The migration utility in the newer computer's OS X would usually allow
    the older Mac's info to be pulled into the new computer; the installer
    disc for the new Mac won't do anything for the old PPC Mac since it
    would be unreadable. Intel-based Mac machine-specific discs won't
    work in PPC-based Macs; and in general different machines can't
    or won't use the install-restore discs from other models.
    There may have been a way via ethernet, usb or firewire to share files
    using a System Preference panel setting to facilitate this action. The
    suggested method should be adequate. You can also put an iTunes
    library and iPhoto library on a suitable external drive to par-down the
    content and reduce clutter in a portable computer's hard disk drive
    and still be able to access those carefully moved libraries from there.
    Some good support documents in Apple Support tell how to do this.
    In Firefox, you will have to rename the old folder of bookmarks to the
    same name as the existing new apps folder for them to be seen. I
    just replaced folders, carefully, so if that didn't work the first time, the
    items were easy to find and try again later. Once you get the folder,
    the contents should appear in the new browser version as they had
    in the older one, to some extent, after the file or contents are moved.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Profit center balances transfer from old profit centers to new profit cente

    Dear All,
    My client wants to deactivate all cost centers and profit centers and create new cost centers and new profit centers for new fiscal year 2009.
    So here my queries are
    1. Putting an end date to the existing cost center and creating the New cost center now itself in the system with effective date as 1st April 09?
        I changed validity period in cost center but it does not accept.
    2. How to restrict postings to profit center from April, 2009 ? even changed validity period and changed as inactive mode in profit center,
        It is allowing postings to profit center.
    3. How the balances need to be transferred to New profit centers? I tried in 9KE0 T.code but in this T.code we can transfer profit center and GL A/C wise
        but here we have around 20 profit centers and 100 above Gls, so it will take so much of time, so kindly suggest me short way.
    4. And When can we transfer balances to New profit centers i.e April 1st or after completions of Audit? because client wants to post pending transactions of 2008 FY
        to old profit centers in April and May months. So in this situation how can i proceed?
    5. For mapping the Assets & Liabilities balances as on 31st Mar 2009 to New profit center the following need to be provided
        A. Profit center wise Trail balance
            ( For this i suggested S_PL0_86000030 t.code) is this correct?
        B. Profit center wise Balances of Subsidiary Ledgers i.e Vendors, Customers & Assets
    6. On which date I can close 2008 FY& open 2009 fiscal year for Assets?
    Please guide and provide me solutions above my queries.
    This would be great help for me, Thanks in advance.
    Thanks & Regards,

    1.     You can block cost centers and profit centers and create new or can use same by changing analysis period  Eg: KS02 > Edit > Analysis period
    2.     Select lock indicator in profit center master record
    3.     Write LSMW to that
    6.  At the end of you fiscal year close the asset period and do all year end transactions and open new asset period      
    You can use S_PL0_86000030 check it

  • Transfer from old touch iPod to new touch iPod

    Hubby got me the 8 gig touch iPod last year for Christmas, this year he gave me a 32 gig. His idea was that I use my classic for music, and my touch for games, photos & such, that if he gave me a larger touch, I would only have to carry one.
    Not to sure, if I'll keep it, to tell the truth it feels like a lot of $$, to have less over all storage. However if I do keep it, how in the heck to I transfer all those apps I bought for the 8 gig? If I had to buy all over again, the new one will be going back to the store ASAP.
    Other than the speakers, is there any other reasons that the 32 gig would be worth upgrading to? To be honest, I use the iPods when I'm traveling, so I don't need external sound.

    there ain't !
    since it warns me every time I attempt that I will automatically ERASE everything on my iTouch
    to prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod - hold down the option and the command keys ( on a PC that would be the shift and ctrl ) keys when plugging in the ipod - keep pressing the keys until the iPod is listed under the devices list in iTunes.
    ... but the apps aren't even on my laptop, they're all on my iTouch
    that would be +iPod Touch+
    purchased apps can be re-downloaded for free. i would recommend to either sync them back from your Touch to your iTunes library (or re-download them), then connect your son's Touch usinf the above method.

    My old hard drive crashed and had to get it replaced. How do I reinstall my old library to the new hard drive from my iphone4s so I don't lose my music?

    Officially you don't. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    Note: The information below hasn't been updated since early 2013.

    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can install the new hard disk yourself if you want to. You just need a 2'5" SATA II hard drive, which is compatible with your MacBook Pro. You can buy one at OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/ You can filter hard drives by computer, so press a "Click to view all...", choose your computer in the sidebar and it will give you the compatible hard drives.
    There are different brands for the MacBook Pro. The most recommended are HGST and Seagate, which have good reputation. A 7200 rpm hard drive will give you extra performance
