How do you get two computers on same network for mirgration.

I am trying to migrate from an older iMac G5 running the most updated version of TIGER to our new MacBook Air running LION.
The air doesn't have a firewire connection, so it's trying to do it over the wireless network.  I have them both on the same network, BUT the new Air is asking for me to update the Migration Assistant on the older machine.  Don't have any idea how to do that.
Is there a work around? 
Can I use USB connections?

You need to install 10.5.8 on the PPC computer to work with Migration Assistant. It would be easier to clone the drive to an external hard drive. Then restore from the external hard drive using Migration Assistant.

    I appreciate the replies about needing to setup a credit card for agreeing to pay for purchases and letting someone else be the Family Organizer.  The purpose of my question is to know if there is a way around apples requirement to have a valid payment method on file...we have money in our apple account (use iTunes gift cards) and I do not want to store my CC info at apple.  It seems like very odd that money in your account would not be enough to setup Family Sharing.
    Very frustrating and just about ready to get rid of all the 15 apple products we currently have.
    Khuerter,
    Having a credit card when you set up as Family Organizer is a legal requirement to prove that you are taking financial responsibility for the others on the account.  As Gail noted, there is not a way around that.
    Once the account is set up, the Family Organizer can remove the credit card and replace it by a debit card.

  • How do you get a human being from Apple for customer service? This is the worst customer support ever seen!

    How do you get an actual human being to speak with at apple to help with customer service?

    The Apple Support COMMUNITIES is a user-operated apple-run page where users of the COMMUNITY help other people the best they can. Apple employees do not have anything to do with this page apart from own the servers and design it. If you want to speak to Apple then go to their Customer Support here: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/contact/
    Remember, this isn't a customer support page, it's a community forum based on using Apple products. If you wish to refer to Apple employees then this is the wrong website.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you get maximum jpg quality/smallest size for photographers

    I would love to get any input from another photographer (or
    anyone else). About specific tips for maximum jpg quality in my 20
    page pdf portfolio. What file pixel dimensions do you use? What
    quality levels in photoshop "save fer web" before importing into
    illusrator for type and coversion to pdf. Or do you do it all in
    photoshop. Color spaces? Noise reduction? file format before import
    into illustrator.
    All these and anything else you care to pass on. Failing
    that, any recommendations on where to find a tutorial that
    addresses same?
    Perhaps this would be a great topic for and article at
    acrobat.com.

    David is right, this is really a topic for the other forums.
    However, I can offer some basic advice from my experience as a
    photographer, blogger and person who uses Acrobat.com and other
    sites to post photos.
    The first important point is that the monitor resolution is
    typically 72 dpi. If you are saving to show as a JPG in a web page,
    for example (not embedded in a PDF), setting the dpi larger than
    this is problematic - the image will just appear larger. If you are
    embedding in a PDF for printing, the image should match the dpi of
    the document - usually 300 dpi, although it varies, else the
    program (Acrobat, for example) will have to scale the photo in a
    way you can't necessarily control.
    When I am exporting files from Photoshop (or, more
    frequently, Lightroom), I usually set the resolution to 72 dpi and
    then use 100x the size of the print. For example, a photo with an
    aspect ratio of 4x5 will be 400x500 pixels. I've found that this
    creates an image (some panoramics excepted) that tends to 'fit' in
    most monitors and is large enough to contain good detail.
    Color space: Adobe1998. I believe that PDF will attempt to
    either render the image in its current color space, or translate
    it, but Adobe1998 is pretty ubiquitous and has worked for me
    (unless you need CMYK or something else specific).
    The larger issue is that the JPG compression is dependent on
    the nature of the photograph. Some photos are fine at 60%, some
    halo miserably. So you'd have to do it manually for each to be
    absolutely sure. However, most of the time I export at 60%
    compression, 72dpi and I'm OK. But I am usually not producing a
    saleable print or a portfolio piece that has to look perfect. I
    just want it to look as good as possible on a computer screen while
    still being able to automate. TIFF avoids all that, but there's no
    compression and the image is huge, as you know.
    Since you are producing a PDF, you could try a side-by-side
    test. Do it once with TIFFs at 300 dpi and once with 80% JPGs. This
    test will exercise whether the rescaled PDF (with 300dpi) renders
    as well as a 72dpi PDF with JPGs on your screen.
    The final advice I'd give is to examine how small a file you
    really want. With Acrobat.com's Share application, giving people
    access to a large PDF is no longer a problem - you don't have to
    email it, which is where it typically gets blocked due to file
    size. To be sure, 20 TIFFs taken with a decent camera (8MP+) is
    going to create an unduly large file, but the same images as 80%
    JPGs will probably get you what you need. If won't be a small PDF,
    but it won't be 50MB either.
    As you are also probably aware, many of the social networking
    sites that have photo applications automatically rescale photos or
    do other side-processing to ease the load. Clearly, that doesn't
    work for a professional photographer.
    Hope this helps, I'll subscribe to the topic if follow up is
    needed. But as has been mentioned, the forums for the other
    products are probably the place where you'll get more detailed
    advice than I can provide.

  • Trying to get 2 computers on same network into a single game server

    I can't seem to get 2 comps on my network in the same server on quake, I dunno if this has anything to do with IP or anything, but I was wondering if ther might be anything I can do to allow us both to play on the same server, I have a WRT54G Wireless G broadband router. Any information you can give me will be very appreciated. thank you

    make sure that the router has the latest firmware...change the MTU size to 1400 and check whether it makes any difference....

  • How do you get two apple ID's to share iCloud, photo stream?

    We both have iphone's with iCloud, and two macbooks with iCloud, and want to be able to share the photostream, sync each of our calanders on both computers?
    I don't think i did a good job asking that question, but does anyone have any ideas on how to get multiple apple ID's to sync on a macbook pro or two, but remain separate on the iphone?
    thanks

    Yes. You can sync multipl iDevices on the same computer using the same Apple ID. You can each have different configurations of apps, books, music, etc. or have identical configurations. In this way, however, your common data - contacts, mail, calendar will be the same on both iDevices.
    The Apple ID doesn't distinguish one phone from another, only how the phone will sync to a computer. The Apple ID is how iTunes knows to which computer a phone syncs. And, the Apple ID determines who is the registered owner of downloaded and purchased items via iTunes.

  • How Do You Connect Two Computers?

    Real simple question. I'm certain it has a simple answer.
    I have two Macs, both Intel Macs, both running Leopard. One is a MacBook Pro, the other is an office-based iMac. I would like to access the office machine with my book over the internet.
    How do I do that?

    It is a simple solution, but you need to do a lot of homework to decide whether it is an appropriate solution.
    1) set up the target mac with a static internal IP.
    2) set up your router to forward port 5900 to your Mac's internal IP address.
    3) get a static external IP from your provider or sign up for a free DynDNS (or equivalent) account
    or, if your IP address doesn't change often, just deal with the occasional 'outage' due to not knowing the current IP address.
    4) Turn on Screen Sharing on the target Mac
    5) Connect to Server... vnc://business.external.IP.address
    Is someone going to hunt down your computer and try to hack into it? I don't know. But, if it is a business, I would think it is a more lucrative target, and there are also a lot more privacy concerns that you need to consider.
    While you are looking into things, setting up a Virtual Private Network (VPN) may be an option.
    Another consideration is the type of service you have purchased from your internet provider. Unless you are paying for the service, running any type of server over that IP address may violate the terms of service. I haven't looked into whether connecting back to your computer is a violation of the 'no server' rules. Generally, they are concerned about the bandwidth of a Web Server or an FTP server.

  • How do you get your experts with negative stance for new things / innovations to HANA

    We have over 50 ABAP developer (senior experts). Primarily we develop in the old core module (SD, MM, FI, CO, HR, PP, CS, IH, PS) on ERP systems / business suite.
    We have three groups of developer:
    Group 1: They can’t await to work on new architectures – they’re open for all and have fun to work as a pioneer and dig in the deep of the system
    Group 2: For this developer it’s all the same – for this people it’s not a problem to go to a other architectures
    Group 3: They have no interest
    to work in new architectures
    to spend time to learn new things
    they are very closed for new things
    they have for all topics bad statements
    I am part of the group 1. In my opinion in the IT it’s normal to spend much time at new topics in free time to keep up to date. New topics / innovative things make the developer job very exciting. For me it’s regular process – and that’s my own passion .
    Since two month we have our own HANA system in our data centre as play field :-) (business suite on SAP HANA). I’ve some colleagues who made the HANA certification – and we made the first steps in our system. For group 1 and group 2 everything is okay and they’ve fun .
    We have problems with the group 3. They find every hair in the soup – they spend very much time to search arguments against HANA. That’s our “negative group” . We copied our SAP System to a new system and made a technical migration. Now they compare the SAP System, which is based on an oracle datebase, with the new SAP System which is based on a HANA System. They go through the standard ERP process (offer / order / purchase order / goods movements / delivery / MM invoice / SD invoice / material master data / customer master data / vendor master data / conditions / financial bookings / etc.). They main argument is, that they can’t see a grow up of the performance / the added value of the invest / etc. Our other problem is that the group of this people have experience over 20 years in ABAP developing – and their opinion have a high weight. The other arguments: IBM and oracle are working on similar architectures – and we can hold on on the open sqlsyntax / on the present coding.
    Have you similar problems to get the acceptance of group 3?
    Have you tips / tricks for us?
    Have you ideas for catching the group 3?
    What standard components are really optimized for HANA?
    In which standard components can we see a really performance grow up?
    There are standard use cases to see the differences?
    Which data volume do we need in the data model to see the differences?
    What can we do to take the group 3 with us?
    How can we open the group 3 for innovations?

    Hi,
    Please find my reply below.
    1. Have you similar problems to get the acceptance of group 3?
    In IT world we have similar groups. Only results help this group3. I would suggest showcasing on results.
    2. Have you tips / tricks for us?
    As you mentioned in your email, you already have HANA System to play with. So I would suggest looking at high performance transactions like MRP run and FICO Month-end Close.
    3. Have you ideas for catching the group 3?
    SAP has few use cases. Take-up these use cases build data models and use in ERP.
    4. What standard components are really optimized for HANA?
    Recently in our organization we replaced database from DB2 with HANA. Now our SAP ECC is running on HANA. Straight away we have seen 30% of performance improvement in all the transactions. SAP is providing optimized SAP Transactions and there is significant performance improvement and SAP Road Map clearly talks about providing more optimized SAP Transactions on top of HANA to its customers.
    We tried to push some of our high performance code to DB layer by creating the Data Models and using those views in SAP ABAP Programs or Transactions. This gave us significant performance improvement.
    Please refer to below document. This has list of standard optimized transactions.
    Link
    5. In which standard components can we see a really performance grow up?
    This blog throws light on following high performance transactions.
    Link
    6. There are standard use cases to see the differences?
    Use Case
    7. Which data volume do we need in the data model to see the differences?
    MRP run transaction has huge performance issue you can work on MRP Run data model.
    8. What can we do to take the group 3 with us?
    Only Proof of Concepts (POC) results will help to take this group.
    9. How can we open the group 3 for innovations?
    As per your email, I feel group 3 is most demotivated group. I would suggest to talk to each individual and understand there areas of interest and try to put them in their areas of interest. As per my experience this will give good results.

  • How do you get them to take a network problem seriously?

    I have a couple of websites that I need for work.  For some reason They stopped working with Verizon phones, 3G and 4G, at least in my area around the 28th of march.  They work if you make a wifi connection and with other carriers.  When I finally got to a human she couldn't go off script and kept telling me that I needed to reboot the phone.  The only way that was going to work was if I hung up and rebooted and then went through their voice jail system again.   So I went to a franchisee and had them deal with it.  the only advantage they had was a number to get straight to a real person and they were on another phone so they could go through the rebooting sham.  They gave me a trouble ticket number >(Ticket number deleted)< and the problem is still unresolved.  Although it did briefly work yesterday.
    I can't find any place on their site to check the status of this trouble ticket and haven't heard from them since.  How do I check the status of the ticket and light a fire under them.
    It would be nice if people from around the country could check one of the sites; fsmstamps.com just so I could know if it is my area or everywhere.

    It doesn't matter now.  They finally fixed it but the time was far too
    long for me not to have all the service I'm paying for.
    Nevertheless the phone # is <Personal information deleted per the TOS>
    What you really need to resolve is why it is so difficult to report a
    network problem.
    BTW the I posted the ticket number and someone at your end scrubbed it.
