Restore to new computer: I did a carbon copy of my old macbook pro computer it's on my external hard drive. Now how do I restore files on to my new macbook pro.

not sure how to restore old files, address book, music, photos to my new Mac OS X 10.7.4. The external hard drive has all the computer (system-apps-files etc) stored via carbon cloner. The formatted volume is Macos extended (journaled) Do I need to download memeo Life Agent program or is there a migration type program already on my new computer? What do I do to restore these bits and parts of my old mac OS X 10.6.8?

I have all my old photos from my PC on a Maxtor external hard drive. How can I transfer them from this to my Macbook Air?

I'd like to transfer my old photos from my PC which are stored on a Maxtor external hard drive to my Macbook Air. Is there an easy way of doing this? I don't know if the Maxtor hard drive is Windows specific or if it's compatible with Mac. Anyone know?

It should be fairly simple. The Maxtor should be recognized as "read only" since it's formatted for windows. Connect it and in iPhoto select, iPhoto > File > Import to Library.. > Point to your external hd.

Trash the copy of the library you just moved. Then Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
But do you want to have two iPhoto Libraries? Why not just use the one on the External?

No you cannot, it doesn't allow that level of customization.

Hi Perilman,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that all of your iTunes media is on an external hard drive and you would like to move that media onto your new Windows computer hard drive. The following article has step by step instructions for this specifically. Part 5 in the External drive section is probably what is going to be most relevant to you.

I backed up my iPhoto library manually to an external hard drive. How do I restore it?

I backed up select portions of my hard drive to an external hard drive. At the time, I didn't realize that it was going to be so hard to recover the original photos from the iPhoto library. The backup is basically just a command-line "cp" of the iPhoto Library directory. What's the best way to either recover the original photos or restore the iPhoto library to a new computer?

OK, sorry for the delay. Holidays and whatnot.
Sooooo... the backup was basically a command line "cp -r", however the partition that I backed up to on the external drive was FAT32. So that explains why it's no longer a package. Clearly a mistake on my part, but still need to find a way to recover.
I tried to rebuild the library DB, but it just bails out with the same exact message ("You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto.").
So crap. Should I keep trying to find a way to get iPhoto to recognize my backed up library, or should I give up on that approach and just try to manually get my photos out of the backup? If the latter, what's the best way to do that? I see an "Originals" subfolder, does that have all my photos in it (I only care about originals, don't care about edits)? What about the "Data" subfolder, which also seems to have some photos?

Connect macbook pro to macbook air as if it were an external hard drive?

can i connect my macbook pro to my macbook air as if it were an external hard drive?
i tried using migration assistant, which will work, but i want to look through my stuff as if it were an available external harddrive, then click and drag stuff onto my new computer.

If you are using Ethernet to connect the two computers, then enable File Sharing on the MBP. Select the MBP's Desktop drive icon. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window, check the box labeled "Shared Folder." You should then be able to mount the MBP's shared drive on the MBA's Desktop and browse to your heart's content.

My question is this. When I do this, will itunes have all my album artwork for all my library? My library has a lot of my own music and I have spent quite a bit of time copying album artwork that itunes did not add. I am really hoping I don't have to do this again!
Thanks for your help!

My MacBook Pro no longer "sees" my LACie external hard drive

Hello,
I need you help with this one. My MacBook Pro no longer "sees" my LACie external hard drive. In the System Profiler (under FireWire) the drive is listed as:
FireWire Bus:
Maximum Speed: Up to 800 Mb/sec
Unknown Device:
Manufacturer: Unknown
Model: Unknown
Maximum Speed: Up to 800 Mb/sec
Connection Speed: Unknown
Can anyone help me to correct this issue? Thank you in advance for your help!!
Nat

I was finally able to resolve this issue. I went to LaCie's site and went to the support area to find troubleshooting steps for my particular drive. It turns out that the problem was corrected when I swapped the power supply cord of the "troubled" drive with another LaCie drive that I have and that seemed to resolve the problem. Thank you Tony for your help. I appreciate you guys!
Thanks,
Nat

Hi! I got movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? need some help please!!

Hi! I got Movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? When I start playing the movie a message pops up and says "a required codec is not available". I tried flip4mac, xvid, divx already and still not playing my video. need some help please!! thanks.

Although vlc mentioned above is a much more powerful and better player you could try installing Perian if you insist on using the quicktime player. It may supply the codec it needs.
Not sure why you wouldn't be able to play straight avi files though in quicktime.

iTunes > preferences > advanced.
point iTunes media folder location to the external
on the same tab, ensure the copy files ... when adding option is checkmarked
okay out of preferences
highlight the content to be moved (i.e. the movies) in iTunes and right-click
select consolidate files from the pop-up menu
wait for the process to finish
when done, you may delete the original files from your boot drive. you may also want to point iTunes media folder location back to your local iTunes folder.

no. airport express does not support the airdisk feature. you'd need an airport extreme (or time capsule) for that.
