Problems with the Migration assistant from a case-sensitve MacPro/Mavericks to a case-insensitive iMac5K/Yosemite

Hello
My previous Mac was a 2008 8-core 2.8GHz MacPro with Mavericks and a case-sensitive file system.
I received my iMac5K yesterday and attempted a migration.
I was surprised to see that my 1.5TB of data went through the FW800/TB link within 6 hours.
Actually it skipped many things including my Aperture library, my iTunes directoy, my Video/FCP project directory and, most importantly my mail...
This morning I tried to start a new migration assistant using my Mac Pro's USB3 Time Machine backup hooked to the iMac.
The iMac could not see it at all.
What do I perform the wrong way?
Thanks for your help: there's all my life on this Mac Pro, and I want it tranfered to this better, modernersystem.

Did you try a Spotlight search?
I actually found the files but everything is all over the place in private/var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000 (yes I don't know what this is)
/cleanupatstartup/SMSsandboxTools-tmp/users/(user) and there they are.
Seems like a complete wipe, reinstall, and try it all over again is in order.

Where are the files saved after successfully using the Migration Assistant from PC to a Mac?

I just used the Migration Assistant from PC to Mac but I can't find where the files were saved? I thought the process was supposed to create a new user account...Why can't I see it on the login screen?
Please help ! I've formatted my PC so I wanna make sure that my files are not lost

Have a read here:

Might be better/best to start the thing all over and using the Setup Assistant instead of the MIgration Assistant this time:

HT4796 I keep trying to install the migration assistant from pc to mac and the software will not install. It continues to get interrupted.

I am trying to install the Migration Assistant that will transfer my Itunes accout from a PC to a MABookAir. The install is interrupted and unable to complete. Would someone be able to walk me through where the glitch might be?

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

HT4527 Where are the music I transferred with the Migration Assistant?

I used the Migration Assistant to move my music library on iTunes to a new one, and both my new Macbook and old computer said the music transfer worked. However, I can´t seem to find the music files on my Mac that I wanted to transfer. Where are they, and how can I move them into iTunes?

Log out, log in to the migrated account, locate the music, drag it to the /Users/Shared/ folder, and from there to the first account's home folder.

Due to the rumored heat problems with the iPad 3, is there a danger in using a leather case design for it.

I recently purchased a 64 GB Verizon LTE iPad, along with a Bear Motion leather case designed specifically for that model. I've been reading a lot about the heat problems with the new iPad and although I haven't noticed them on mine, I'm worried that putting it in the case may cause worse problems. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Unless you have a defective iPad you should be fine. The only time it should be heating up is when you're running an intensive app like a game that's working the quad-core processor and the screen. I bought a Targus leather case for mine and play InfinityBlade2 on it and haven't noticed any heating issues with mine, but the part holding the iPad is plastic, so it can disipate heat better.
If your iPad gets too hot it'll warn you, so I'd use it for now and see what happens. It'll shut down before it causes any permanent damage.

Migration assistant from an XP to MacPro, is there a fix?

When attempting to help my in-laws transfer their information and settings from there old XP machine to their new Mac. Intrying the Migration assistant I found that everything installs propery on the XP machine but the process freezes at the part where the XP machine is supposed to shaw the unique code that the Mac generates.
Some older post I read on this forum say this process doesn't work but some newer posts make it sound as though is does.
Is there a link someone could share for the fix?
I do know that if there is no fix it is all manual and I am OK with that, just more time consuming, esp transfering Outlook mail file and settings.
Thank you,

Migration Assistant isn't perfect, if it doesn't work, then use a external drive and transfer files manually, format the drive (empty of data) exFAT or FAT to work with both.
You can't transfer programs from a Windows PC to a Mac with OS X, you have to buy OS X versions of Office.
If you have Windows installed on a Mac, you can transfer programs, provided the XP ones run in Windows 7, but they have to be reinstalled with the developers installer, WIn7 is the only version supported in BootCamp.
Virtual machine software can run the Windows XP and Vista with their programs, provided one has a retail version of XP and/or Vista.

Problems with the WD2GO app from Western Digital

I have a Western Digital Mybooklive and have downloaded the WDPhoto and WD2Go apps.
The WDPhto app works perfectly, however the WD2Go app doesnt.
I have been in discusson with WD and they have put forward numerous suggestions but I have found nothing that works.
They belive the proble is with the Ipad, although I am not convinced.
When I launch the app, I get a Mybooklive icon to sekect.
After selecting the mybooklive I can see all my public shares.
If I click on one I see the next level in the folder structure but after this when I click on a folder the Ipad gives the busy circle and eventaually I get the message
"Device Offline".
If I the come out of the app and go back in I get the "Device offline " message when I click on the Mybooklive icon.
I can get access to the Mybooklive from my andcroid phone both within my own wifi neetwork and using 3G.
So I know that port forwarding on the Mybooklive is working properly as the android phone and router and mybooklive all talk to each other.
Has anyone got a reason why the Ipad has these issues.

I had exactely the same problems you have described! No useful help from WD assistance but the problem is quite well known between the users and not so rare.
I have found the solution of my problems following the suggestions you can find here http://community.wd.com/t5/WD-Mobile-Apps/WD-2Go-App-iPad-amp-iPhone/m-p/538735# M2125
Now everything is OK!

Problem with the return value from a tablemodel after filtering

I have a form (consult that return a value) with a jtextfield and a jtable. when the user types in the textfield, the textfield call a method to filter the tablemodel.
everything works fine, but after filtering the model, the references are lost and the return value does not match with the selected row.
I read that convertColumnIndexToView, convertRowIndexToView, vertColumnIndexToModel and convertRowIndexToModel, solve the problem, but I used all and nothing.
**** This is the code to fill the jtable
DefaultTableModel modelo=(DefaultTableModel)this.jTable1.getModel();
while(rs.next()){
Object[] fila= new Object[2];
fila[0]=rs.getObject("id_categoria");
fila[1]=rs.getObject("nombre");
modelo.addRow(fila);
this.jTable1.getColumnModel().removeColumn(this.jTable1.getColumnModel().getColumn(0));
// I delete the first column because is a ID, I dont want that the user see it. the value is only for me**** this is the method to filter from the jtextfield
private void FiltrarJtable1() {
TableRowSorter sorter = new TableRowSorter(this.jTable1.getModel());
sorter.setRowFilter(RowFilter.regexFilter("^"+this.jTextField1.getText().toUpperCase(), 1));
this.jTable1.setRowSorter(sorter);
this.jTable1.convertRowIndexToModel(0);
}*** this is the method that return the ID (id_categoria) from the tablemodel
private void SeleccionarRegistro(){
if(this.jTable1.getSelectedRow()>-1){
String str_id =this.jTable1.getModel().getValueAt(this.jTable1.getSelectedRow(),0).toString();
int_idtoreturn=Integer.parseInt(str_id);
this.dispose();
}else{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this,"there are no records selected","Warning!",1);
}Who I can solve this problem?

You're right in that you have to use convertRowIndexToModel(), but you are using it wrong. That method takes as input the index of a row in the view, i.e. the table, and returns the corresponding row in the underlying TableModel. No data is changed by the call, so this:
this.jTable1.convertRowIndexToModel(0);is meaningless by itself.
What you need to do is the following:
int selectedRow = this.jTable1.getSelectedRow(); // This is the selected row in the view
if (selectedRow >= 0) {
int modelRow = this.jTable1.convertRowIndexToModel(selectedRow); // This is the corresponding row in the model
String str_id =this.jTable1.getModel().getValueAt(modelRow, 0).toString();
}Hope this helps.

Problems with the technical assistance and Warranty in BRAZIL

My English is not the best, but I will do my best.
I've bought an Iphone 4 from a telephony company called TIM here in Brazil, and after 15 days the device was not working anymore. I sent it to the technical assistance 32 days ago, and they said yesterday that they don't have any iphone to give me, and they can't give my money back. So I spent R$2.000,00 (that is a lot of money here in Brazil), now I don't have my Iphone, and I can't buy another one because I can't have my money back. I am an iOS developper, and I really need my iphone to work.
The name of the technical assistance here is *Allied Advanced Technologies ltda*, they don't respect the clients and they are making a bad image of Apple here in Brazil. Change it please!
Please contact me to have the service order number of my device on Allied.

Problem with the RAW images from Canon 5d Mark III

hope you are doing good. i need your opinion regarding a phenomena i am observing in the RAW images from Mark iii.
The following images appear to be absolutely correct in the camera and when viewed through a picture viewer.
I have tried and tested the following scenarios:
1. Used a medium speed kingston CF Card (new) and transferred the images through the USB cable supplied with the camera.
2. Thought the card might be slow OR faulty.. used Sandisk Extreme and Extreme Pro SD Cards but same result.
3. Transferred SD Card data through the builit in laptop card reader.
4. Have directly imported the images from SD Card into Lightroom 4.3, copied the data firstly to laptop HDD and then imported, copied the SD card data to an external HDD and then copied. .... same result!!
5. Have tried the same with both Win7 and Mac OS.
6. The DPP sw that came with the camera gives the error of 'Decoding Failed' with these images.
Usually 10-15 images out of 100 give this kinda pattern. so i was hoping if you can guide me what is going wrong here !!!

The camera and PictureViewer are likely showing you the embedded JPG, while DPP and LR are decoding the raw data which appears to be corrupted. Assuming you have formatted your SD cards in the camera and the issues are always in the same positions in the same images when you transfer them multiple times from the card to different computers via different methods, then the data is on the card that way.
If the embedded JPG is ok then the sensor is ok, so something between the sensor-readout and the storage on the card appears to be failing intermittently, and it’s time to talk to Canon, I think.

Problems with the Migration Tool

Hello.
I'm getting an error when trying to start asmt, this is the Migration Tool form the Sun Java System Application Server 9. The error is the following:
sun.iasmt.user.cmd.backendenablers.InputArgException: 204:Insufficient disk space. File: C:myEAR.ear needs: 1163 bytes available: 0 bytes at sun.iasmt.supervisor.util.InputDataPreprocessor.insufficientDiskSpace

My desktop have more of 20GB of free disk space and the enviorement's variables are setting:
JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.5.0_11
ASMT_HOME=D:\asmt
J2EE_HOME=C:\j2sdkee1.3.1
My ear is allright deployed by Sun One System Application Server 7, but not by Sun Java System Application Server 9, so that, I need to use the migration tool.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks.

Hi, were you able to fix this error? If so, how? I take it J2EE_HOME needs to point to your existing Sun One 7 installation, correct?
Thanks in advance,

Problems with the downloaded programs from sites on Internet

Hi,
I just recently got interested in downloading a program from the site myspace.com, but I have been interested in other programs earlier in my time as a MacBook user. Unfortunately, I have not discovered how to open them properly. What is the best way to get an understanding of how to open these non-universal programs, such as Instant messenger from myspace.com?
I would like to know if I need to find the rosetta application somehow on my applications window, because I already know now, that the rosetta application won't work yet on the instant messenger that I tried to install to my computer.
If anyone has a clue about how to get my application "Install Messenger.exe to open with rosetta, like I have read about yet don't know how to get running yet, please would you be kind to send a thread to mine on apple discussions?!
This is really confusing, and I need to be able to do the instant messenger on Myspace so that I can become good friends with my new friends on myspace!

Any applications that ends in .exe is a Windows application and cannot run natively on a Mac. The only way to run those applications would be to install Windows, either via BootCamp or one of the third-party systems such as Parallels Desktop. For any of those, you'd need to purchase a copy of Windows.

I have a problem with the reminder app from Apple

Who can help me? Thanks!

Many threads about this problem, but no response from Apple...

Adobe Camera Raw in CS3 is having problems with the RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark II

Adobe Bridge will import the CS2 raw files from the camera card in m Canon 5D Mark II but it will not create thumbnails nor will it convert them to DNG. I want to update the raw reading software but the update page indicates that it only updates into CS4. Will I have to upgrade to CS4 before I can import from my new camera?
ML

The dng converter does indeed work but it adds an extra step to the workflow. Raw files from my Canon 40D are exported and converted to dng in Bridge in one step. Now I must add the extra step of using dng converter. Can I upgrade Adobe Bridge's raw capacity so that I can import from my new camera in the same efficient way? I would prefer to do this without buying CS4.
thank you -- ML
