Getting a calendar from one Mac to another

Hello,
I created a calendar on my MacBook (iPhoto 7.1.1) which I ordered as a Christmas present for someone and am very pleased with the results. I want to get that calendar file to show up on my G5 upstairs, which has iPhoto 6.0.6. I exported it from my MacBook as a pdf which I can see on my G5 (I have a home network) but can't figure out how to import it so that it shows up in the left pane (Source) in iPhoto on the G5.
The goal is to both just see it (I have a 22" Samsung) which I can do via the pdf, and also to be able to open the file and work on it and order a better calendar. Thanks for any ideas.

You cannot do this, I'm afraid.
A calendar (or book) is simply an entry in the library database. To move it to another machine you'll need to move the entire library - or at least the library with all the pics that you want to use. However this won't work for you because the machine you want to move it to has v6 on it and it will not open a v7 library.

  • Can I use iCloud to publish my calendar from one mac to another?

    I am on a Macbook Pro and my wife has an iMac. She has all our kids activities on it and I want to be able to import or publish (for lack of a better term) the calendar onto my calendar on my Macbook. I want all the activities to be added to my calendar directly. Is this possible using iCloud? Should I use a different method instead? Thanks!!!

    Ctrl-click on the calendars button in the calendar window and choose 'Share' from the contextual menu.

  • TS2530 When I put a burned cd from one Mac into another Mac, song titles do not show up! I have to enter them manually! My CD player reads the titles that i on the cd; how can I get my Mac to do so?

    When I put a burned cd from one Mac into another Mac, song titles do not show up! I have to enter them manually! My CD player reads the titles that i on the cd; how can I get my Mac to do so?

    The problem is that I burned these CD's myself from music that I added from my personal collection to iTunes. The INFO is ON the CD's (it appears perfectly when I put the CD in my Numark mixer...so I know the info is on the CD), but for some reason, my MAC PRO will NOT read the info on the burned CD when I place the CD into the MAC PRO. The CD was burned on a MAC that I no longer own. But there HAS to be a way to transfer songs from a burned CD with the INFO that is on the CD burned with iTunes.
    PLEASE HELP!

  • When exporting and then importing Apple Mail from one mac to another I get "Some messages could not be imported. Partially imported mailbox will be labeled IMPORT" . That mailbox does not appear.

    When exporting and then importing Apple Mail from one mac to another I get "Some messages could not be imported. Partially imported mailbox will be labeled IMPORT" . That mailbox does not appear.
    Any help would be welcome

    This is a bug in Mail. The mailbox archiving function does not include attachments, which  gives the error with the import. To workaround this you can create a mailbox in Mail and copy to it all emails you want to export. Then go in Finder to [user]/Library/Mail/Mailboxes en select the created mailbox. Copy this to the public directory of your other mac. Then start Mail on that other mac and import the mailbox from the public directory. Should work now.

  • How to transfer printer settings from one Mac to another (both OSX)?

    Hello, I have not found a detailed description on how to transfer printer settings from one Mac to another.
    My issue is that I have a Mac G5 with 3 different settings saved as "presets" for the same printer. This works great, since the posters I print (on the large format printer) need different margins and different paper at times.
    This G5 is basically retired and only used for printing. G5 has OSX 10.3.9
    I have a MacPro as its replacement (OSX 10.4.11).
    The MacPro has all my apps and other settings setup to my liking.
    I found several links via Google saying copy this folder or directory, but I am not sure I did it correctly. I don't see the "presets".
    I tried launching the Migration Assistant (I hope that's the correct name), but was concerned the settings on the new MacPro would be overwritten with ALL the old stuff on the older G5. I did not start the transfer process because of this.
    If someone would list the steps needed to accomplish the transfer of printer settings or advise if this is possible, then I would be very grateful! The previous user of the G5 I am using was a "Genius" and I don't know how he created these "preset" choices.
    Thanks!

    Hi SCChelpdesk, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    I found several links via Google saying copy this folder or directory, but I am not sure I did it correctly. I don't see the "presets".
    This is the File that holds that info on Tiger, not certain on Panther...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.print.custompresets.plist
    After moving, you very well might have to change the Owner's Permissions within Get Info window, then log out/in.
    I tried launching the Migration Assistant (I hope that's the correct name), but was concerned the settings on the new MacPro would be overwritten with ALL the old stuff on the older G5. I did not start the transfer process because of this.
    MA would transfer the info, but/and, if the user that had that info had the same Shortname as on the new one, it'll demand you give it a new Shortname to use... but then those settings would be transferred to that new user on the new machine. I think the 1st one will work though.
    The previous user of the G5 I am using was a "Genius" and I don't know how he created these "preset" choices.
    We can go through that way if you like... not all that hard.

  • How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process?

    How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.

    I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
    If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested.  If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library.  Not the same as the other methods.
    The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.

    You can share songs, but if there is DRM protection on the song, it will not play on the other device unless you also transfer the rights to the other device. You are getting into the problem of music piracy.

  • Moving from One Mac to Another

    I'm considering selling my 13" Mid-2009 MacBook Pro for a newer 13" i5 MacBook Pro.  It's the first time I've done a transition from one Mac to another and I have a few questions...
    What's the best way to transfer everything over to my new Mac, without having to reinstall certain software?  I'm worried about needing to re-install Logic, Aperture, Final Cut, or CS5, because these discs are packed away in boxes and I can't really get to them right now.  If I have to re-install things like Firefox or OnyX, no big deal there... just looking to backup the Pro applications.
    Can migration assisstant do what I'm looking for, or is there something better for this?  Need some insight on how to handle this.
    Thanks for reading!

    THIS ONE I KNOW!!!
    There's a Migrating your Mac wizard in the "Utilities" folder - when you start the NEW Mac - all you need is a network cable, when PROMPTED - when the new Mac turns on - it asks "are you migrating an existing Mac" (something like that) say YES - at that point, on your other system - you're going to fire up the "migrating your mac" program - which will be on your OLD system.  Once there, the Network cable (Make sure it's compatible with gigbit speeds - this process will take some time!) but the two systems WITHOUT A SWITCH, Without a hub - plugged from one to another, will move EVERYTHING to the new system.
    How?
    You sign on as YOU every time you do anything.  The program simply looks for anything NOT owned by the system - and 100% of your stuff is moved over properly, into the right places

  • Migrating from one Mac to Another

    [Short Version
    Problem:
    Need to move photos from G4 ibook to Intel macbook. Both run 10.5, so I assume iphoto 09. I don't know, because I don't use iPhoto. I use photoshop.
    I would be happy to settle for extracting image files that can be imported into the new computer... but this process seems to fail each time.
    attempted solutions:
    copy "iPhoto Library" from pictures folder to hard drive, import on new computer.]
    Detailed version:
    I'm sure this has been asked before, as people tend to upgrade computers from time to time.
    However, I've searched the boards and google for a half hour or so with mixed results.
    A friend of mine has an old G4 ibook that she has recently replaced with a new intel macbook. Both run Leopard.
    She would like to get rid of the G4, but can't figure out how to move her iPhoto library (or even the pictures without albums, etc.) from one mac to another.
    She attempted to copy the iPhoto library in the G4 to an external drive, then attempted to import the library into the new macbook. This didn't work, files show up in the database, but will not open. They appear to be .jpg files, or at least have that extension.
    My suggestion was that she use the File > Export command, but she can't seem to get that to work either. I'm not sure if she selected the correct options, both during export from the old system and import from the new system.
    Another option that we haven't tried is to "Option + start iPhoto" trick, similar to my current iTunes setup (home LAN vs away) to access two libraries. To specify, holding option while launching iphoto then selecting the old iPhoto library that has been copied to an external.
    Has anyone had success moving photos from one mac to another?
    thanks in advance for the help.

    1 - OS version and iPhoto versions have little to do with each other - OS X 10.5 will run iPhoto 4, iPhoto 5, iPhoto 6, iPhoto '08 and iPhoto '09 - you have to look at the program and see what version it is
    2 - If you move the entire iPhoto library intact as a single entity between the same version of iPhoto or to a newer version everything is automatic - you can not go backwards (iPhoto '08 can not read an iPhoto '09 library)
    3 - you can always select the photos and export them (file menu ==> export)
    4 - you can get the originals by right clicking (control clicking) on the iPhoto library and selecting show package contents (iPhoto '08 and '09 - not knowing the version involved makes this much more difficult) and copying the originals folder and moving it
    Has anyone had success moving photos from one mac to another?
    Thousand (probably millions) of people - if you know the versions involved you just drag it over and launch iPhoto
    Another option that we haven't tried is to "Option + start iPhoto" trick, similar to my current iTunes setup (home LAN vs away) to access two libraries. To specify, holding option while launching iphoto then selecting the old iPhoto library that has been copied to an external.
    This does not copy a library - it repoints iPhoto to a different library if the version are compatible (and may convert it to a newer version)
    Basically you have not described the most critical piece of information - the iPhoto version on each computer

  • How can I migrate my junk-mail settings from one Mac to another?

    I would like to move my junk mail settings from one Mac to another. I found this article (https://kb.siteground.com/how_to_synchronize_the_junk_email_settings_in_mac_mail /), but can't locate the file indicated in the article, so I suspect that the article is out of date (though it's not dated).
    Both machines - MacOS 10.9.5; Mail 7.3.
    Any insights much appreciated!
    Best,

    Make your user library visible and see if you can find it.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library.

  • How we can get the values  from one screen to another screen?

    hi guru's.
         how we can get the values  from one screen to another screen?
              we get values where cusor is placed but in my requirement i want to get to field values from one screen to another screen.
    regards.
      satheesh.

    Just think of dynpros as windows into the global memory of your program... so if you want the value of a field on dynpro 1234 to appear on dynpro 2345, then just pop the value into a global variable (i.e. one defined in your top include), and you will be able to see it in your second dynpro (assuming you make the field formats etc the same on both screens!).
