How can I move my bookmarks from one laptop to another without losing those on the destination laptop?

I have an older laptop that has a lot of bookmarks that I want to save onto a newer laptop. I've been told that I can move them easily enough, but that that procedure will wipe out the bookmarks on the destination laptop. How can I avoid that?

Your contacts should be on your computer.
You should have been syncing them with your computer from day one.
have you failed to do this?

How can I move my bookmarks from one user to another user?

I recently created a new user and would like to move the favorites in a particular folder to the new user without having to individually copy and past them. What is the easiest way to do this?

You can restore a JSON backup from the not working profile in the current Firefox profile.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders<br />
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders"<br />
You may want to uncheck the box "Hide extensions for known file types" to see the file extensions of all files.

How can I move a photo from one project to another

How can I move a photo from one project to another without creating a duplicate so I have the same photo in two projects.
I seems to me in the past when I moved the photo from project 1 to project 2, I would get a number showing the # of photos being moved and you could drag and drop in the 2nd folder and the photos would disappear from project 1 and show up in project 2. is there a setting I am missing. Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
Any suggestion?

The projects are the basic containers. Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows. But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
Sorry, I misread your question. Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project. Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version? Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:

Move a site from one Mac to another without losing sites already there

I would like to move a site from one Mac to another without losing the websites that I have already built on the other Mac. Transfering the Domain file is not helping. Is there away to open the new domain file and adding those sites to the domain file associated with this copy of iWeb? I have searched the discussions but am not seeing any clear answers. They all seam to invilve new users or losing the sites already on that mac.

I seem to have solved my own problem. This may help other users. I found a tip and a web page that suggested moving the Domain File from the application support folder to another on the desktop on one of the computers and then putting the 2nd Domain File from the other computer in a separate folder on the desktop. This is because you can not change the name of the Domain File . Then by double clicking the Domain File with the site wanted, iWeb opens with that set of sites.
I started with what was to be the new master Domain File and stated a new site with a blank page. saved, did not publish and closed iWeb. Opened from the other Domain File and then clicked and opened the site and page I wanted, then selected all, copied all and closed iweb. Went back to the master Domain File , opened iWeb using that, went to the blank page and pasted in the page from the other Domain File from the other computer. Saved, closed iWeb and repeated till I had all pages. Changed the names to match the sites and Pages. I did not allow iWeb to publish during this process. Took all of 10 minutes and I now have a Domain File with all the sites in one place. I then copied this file back into its original location in Library/application support/iWeb on both computers. I now have all sites in iWeb on both computers.

In contacts app how can I move a contact from one group to another group?

I find I cannot move a contact from one group to another group. If I delete a contact from one group I delete that contact from my total contact population. I did not have this problem in earlier IOS versions. Can anyone help me?

Thanks SO much, Barney. How embarrassing, I could have sworn that I tried that first.
I will definitely get them all moved over before I delete that account and I've already gone in & changed my preferences. Several years ago, my husband I decided to share one calendar and one contacts list, using his mobile me account and it's been great for us. I'm particularly thrilled to no longer serve as a human rolodex and I guess that I paniced a bit when I thought there might be a problem with our system. I'm still confused where that "On my mac" account came from on the first place. Do you suppose that was an automatic thing that came with the Mountain Lion upgrade?
thanks again!

In contacts, how can I move a contact from one account to another?

My husband and I have (happily) shared contacts for years and all of a sudden we realized that some contacts would show up on one of my devices, but not on his. After looking at the issue more closely, we realized that I somehow now have (and do NOT want) an additional contacts account called "on my Mac" that has been inadvertently populated with 22 contacts.
1) How can I move those to our shared account?
When that is complete,
2) How can I delete the account called "On my mac"?
Thanks!

How can I MOVE some projects from one library to another?

As the aperture library grows quite big and I want to split it into several smaller ones. How can I move projects from the old library to a new one without export them and re-import them all again? Is it possible to retain all adjustments after migration?
Thanks!

You export the project by CTRL / Right- click the project and choose 'Export' > 'Project'. The same if you go via the file menu.
Every adjustment you made, books created, albums etc. will be kept in the exported project and are available again when you import it to another library.

HT1495 Can I add music from one iPod to another without losing music on the first ipod

Looking for a way to add music from one iPod to another iPod without losing music on the first iPod ... Please help

Move the music from the computer where it exists to the computer where you want it.
Then sync the music to the iPod.

How can I group different projects in one? How can I move a sketch from one project to another?

It seems that in Adobe Draw for iPad you can only organize your files inside a project, but i need to organize all the sketches imported from Ideas that comes in Adobe draw each one as a project. I need to group some sketches in project and I don't damn know how to.

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to move sketches between projects. You can only reorder sketches within the same project.
In the next release of Draw, you will be able to manually import individual .idea files from your CC account, in addition to the one-time fetch all functionality in place today. When you manually import multiple files, those files will all be imported into one new project. This could be used as a way to organize your .idea files into projects.
We are also hoping to add the ability to move sketches between projects in a future release.
Hope that helps,
Frank

How can I move an icon from one space to another?

My desktop is cluttered with different projects.
I thought spaces might be a solution to my problem.
So I added a desktop. Now I want to take some of my desktop items from my first desktop and place them on the second.
How can I do that? Or is that not the purpose of spaces?

Right the Desktop is the Desktop is the Desktop no matter how many you have. Anything placed on the desktop, and it will be in /Users/YourUserName/Desktop, will show on all the desktops whether one or 25.
The only way to have independent desktops is to have 2 or more user accounts. Each one will have there own Desktop in their user account.

How can I move a photo from one Album to another?

I can touch the pic and it offers me to copy it, but how do I paste it into another album?

You can't move pictures between albums on the iPad. You must do this on the computer that you sync the albums from.

How can I move desktop items from one Mac to another?

The screen on my old Mac laptop is physically broken. I bought a new Mac laptop. I can hook the two via a firewire cable and access the old Mac's hard drive, but I can't figure out how to access the files on my old desktop so that I can move them over to the new Mac. How can I do this?

First, in the future, try to avoid storing files or folders on the desktop; it can create slowdowns.
Second, your files should be in Macintosh HD/Users/yourname/Desktop. If you can navigate to that folder, you should be able to grab and copy them.

How can I move redeemed software from one mac to another

I work in a Higher Education establisment in the uk. We have purchased multiuser licenses for various apps including Final Cut Pro X. Past experience has led me to ask this question...... How do I uninstall software software redeemed from the App Store on one lab of macs and re-install it on another lab of macs ?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
That is a question that you should probably be asking of the folks at Apple from whom you received the licenses, since they are the folks in the know about the legal remifications involved.
