HT3231 What cables are necessary for the fastest transfer of data from MacBook Pro to MacBook Air

What cables are necessary for the fastest transfer of data from MacBook Pro to MacBook Air

As I posted "it is an Unknown", at least to me, what type FW port is on the OPs older Mac.

But the newest Mac notebooks do not have a firewire port.
So he may need a TB to FW adapter, $29, a FW 400 or 800 cable, $??, and then a FW 400 to 800 cable/port adapter (If the old Mac only has a FW 400 port), $??.
It is unknown if the old Mac has a FW 400 or 800 port.

  • What temperatures are acceptable for the CPU and Graphics card?

    I have Intel Xeon X5400 series CPUs and a Nvidia graphics card.  
    It is interesting to monitor the temperatures but only if you know what temps matter...
    What temperatures are acceptable for the CPU and Graphics card? 
    I was not sure if this is the document of choice for the CPU or not. I was not sure I was decifering it correctly either.

    Any one know what we should be watching for as far as what is too hot? 
    I have a ThinkStation D10.
    Did not see this in the user manual but could have missed it. 

    I found my specs:
    Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5405  @ 2.00GHz
    You are correct. An E series. 
    I was so focused on the upgrade to the X5420 that I forgot what the system came with. 
    So what should I set my sensor high value to on my sensor program that shows up on the panel (taskbar)?
    For the E5405 or the X5420? 
    SIDE NOTE: where can I get 2 E5420s or better cheap? 
    Not ready to give up my filters just yet. I live in a dust factory! 
    My girl friend sews really nice bags but creates sewing dust and fuzz. 
    And well there are natural fibers everywhere...
    So other than the the X5492 (150watts),  the X5482, X5472,  X5470, X5460, X5450 are all 120 watts.
    Like the bulk of the X series...
    The E5405, E5410, E5450, E5440, E5420, E5430, E5470, E5462, E5472 are all 80 watts.
    The L series seems to all be 50 Watts.  
     For many the other Processors see this:

  • What connection options do I have in transfer of data from my macbook pro 13" to my iMac

    What connection options do I have in transfer of data from my MacBook Pro 13" to my iMac?

    If available, use a Firewire cable and put the origin in Target Disk Mode.  That's how I rescued all my stuff, all 150GB of it, from my now dead Early '08 MBP to my current one.
    With the new crop, I believe you can use the Thunderbolt ports as well.

    What folio cases are out there that don't damage the new macbook pro retina display 15" I keep looking but can't find any, they all seem to have serious negative reviews

    be specific,  hard case or CARRY CASE?
    hard cases are not recommended, trap in dust and junk and trap heat
    A great carry case, and best made for the money are those made by INCASE as seen in Apple stores and amazon.com

  • FR Studio - Is there a workaround for the issue with referencing data from a grid with a different DB connection and different # of dimensions?

    Hi,
    I am trying to reference a column in a different grid with a different database connection. I did some research in the forums, and it seems like this is a known issue with FR Studio. The issue is that if the 2 different database connections have different # of dimensions, then the reference will throw an error.
    For example, what I'm trying to do is below:
    In grid2.column[A], I have the following formula:
    grid1.column[A]
    The result is an error.
    The ultimate goal is to have a basic variance formula in the grid between grid1 and grid2, which have different database connections with a different # of dimensions. Is there a workaround at all to this bug? The example of the basic formula is below:
    grid1.column[A] - grid2.column[A] 
    Any help is much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Tiffany

    Thanks for the detailed response Mike.
    The issue with trying it in Grid1 vs Grid2 is that Grid1's DB connection has more dimensions than Grid2's DB connection. I can't change the DB connection to a database with more dimensions because you have to be able to map all dimensions from the existing DB connection  (Grid1) to the new DB connection (Grid2). This isn't possible, so instead I have to map Grid2 (less dimensions) to Grid1 (more dimensions). It just ignores the extra dimensions from Grid1. Does that make sense?
    Thanks again for your responses. It's very much appreciated.

  • What fonts are necessary for Apple email?

    I use Extensis Fusion 6 for font management and was shuffling some things for around for best practices. Anyhow, I've removed a font(s) that are specifically required for Apple email to run properly. They haven't been trashed, just moved (temporarily) to the desktop.
    Now, I'm not able to use my email. It opens, but crashes shortly after opening. I'm wondering if anyone knows what the required fonts are for email to run properly. I've likely removed an Apple typestyle that is required.
    I can use gmail and am able to go onto the web in a variety of browsers. The issue is just with Apple email and it occurred after I moved the fonts out.
    I'm currently reading my email on my laptop and forwarding any required files to my desktop via gmail. But this isn't very efficient.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your quick reply. Yes, I know that replacing the fonts back into the folder would be the easiest thing to do. Seeing as how I have many, many fonts I would prefer only to replace the necessary ones. IF there is a list somewhere on the Apple site that people are aware of which identifies the necessary fonts for Apple mail, I would prefer to drop only those ones back into the folder.
    To be honest, I think the removal of Marker Felt is causing the issue. It may be that I drop the typestyles back in one at a time. But again, if a list is out there?
    Thanks again.

  • What properties are necessary for copy

    Hi,
    I've implemented a repositor manager and am testing copy function. Copying documents into my repository manager is OK, but when I try to copy a document from my repository to another EP place like /documents, it always failed with an error message  Cannot assign an empty string to host variable 4. 
    I think when copy, the properties and content of the source object will be retrieved. in getProperties() I have the following:
    <code>
    properties.add(SystemPropertyFactory.createCollectionProperty(false));
    properties.add(SystemPropertyFactory.createContentTypeProperty("application/octet-stream"));
    properties.add(SystemPropertyFactory.createDisplayNameProperty("mytitle"));
    properties.add(SystemPropertyFactory.createReadOnlyProperty(true));
    properties.add(SystemPropertyFactory.createContentLengthProperty(888));
    </code>
    and in getContent() I return BufferedInputStream.
    So why there should be empty or null string...
    Thanks,
    Ray

    Hi Gurus,
    Please help why there's an error <u>
    Cannot assign an empty string to host variable 4
    </u> when I wanna copy a document of my repository manager into other documents. In fact, sometimes it works on one EP but fails on another. So where can I see the log for copy?
    Thanks,
    Ray

  • What cables are best when connecting apple tv, my HD tv has 2 HDMI slots but they are both in use, one for Sky and one for cinema. There are no hdmi slots spare on the cinema either ...

    what cables are best when connecting apple tv, my HD tv has 2 HDMI slots but they are both in use, one for Sky and one for cinema. There are no hdmi slots spare on the cinema either ...

    Mine has four  Seriously shauntana the splitter is easy, a simple click to changre feed and eventually you will damage the HDMI port or cable by taking it in and out.  True you can only use one feed at a time nut you can only use one port on the telly at one time too.  I used it on my old one port telly for PS3 and Sky and it worked a treat.

    You might try talking to the Apple store manager and see if you don't get more help...you might also contact Apple.com/support and see if they can give you a contact with the Apple Italy offices.
    Sounds like you have two levels of failure, the first shop that did the repair and broke a wire, and the second that has disabled something else and isn't helping.
    Apple officially refurbished equipment is usually good quality.  Surprising this has happened but you need to press on with complaints and try for resolution.
