The Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update - Please help!

I have recently transferred my files from my 2007 MacBook Pro to my new 2008 MacBook Pro via target disk mode. I have transferred 50 GB of files by copying and pasting the files, and I have used a Firewire 800 cable.
Since I have successfully transferred my files, I have just noticed the following update.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3174
Is this update related to the process that I have used?
By not having installed this update before, could I have corrupted any files?
Should I erase the files, install the update, and copy the files over again, or is this update for something different?
Please, please shed some insight!
Thanks.
Trisha

Your files would not have suffered any corruption due to the lack of the aforementioned update.

    You can't share/play a music CD using Remote Disk. It's a limitation that Apple built in.
    "MacBook Air and Mac mini do not support playing DVD movies or audio CD media with Remote Disc."
    Remote Disk is limited to data transfers.
    You will have to use the MBA external superdrive, or another compatible external DVD device hooked directly to the Macbook Air.
    Otherwise, you will need to rip the CD's contents using your PC and transfer the music as data files.

  • Do I need the Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update...

    ...if I run only an iMac and a Windows laptop?

    Yes, if you need to migrate from one computer to a newer one or another one. It isn't required for Windows.

  • Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update" (1.1)

    I recently installed the "Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update" (1.1)" update using the Software Update application on 10/19/08. The installation went fine with no errors or apparent problems.
    I noticed yesterday that when I adjust the brightness up or down on my display ( I have an original 15" Apple Studio Display) the graphic that used to appear showing the brightness level no longer appears but the brightness does change. Also, I have my Epson USB printer connected to one of the USB ports in the monitor and it no longer appears in my Printer list and now I can not print.
    When I go into the System Profiler, click on Hardware Graphics/Display it gives me the information for the Display correctly but at the last line it shows " Display: Status: No display connected". When I click on Hardware USB it just shows a generic description USB Bus with no other information included for the monitor or the printer (printer is attached to USB Hub in the monitor}. When I click on Hardware Printers I get "No information found."
    I also used to be able to use the power button on my monitor to turn on the computer and display at the same time but that no longer works.
    I have tried Repairing Permissions and also the Pram/NVram reset to no avail.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    After changing cables, swapping ports, running Applejack AUTO in deep clean mode, booting up with my hard drive that had not been updated with the "Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update" (1.1)" and finally the Tiger Retail boot installation DVD, I finally gave up without solving the problem and shut down the computer.
    After 2 more cups of coffee, I realized there was 1 thing I totally forgot to do. I remembered that I had not unplugged the computer from the outlet and held the reset button located near the battery on the motherboard.
    You guessed it, everything is now working fine.
    The only thing I can not figure out is why this happened after running the "Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update" (1.1)". Go figure.

  • Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update Problem

    Hi, my Mac OS 10.4.11 has a software update on 10-19-2008. It installed the update Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update, since then, my sharing panel stopped working, I can`t set any option of Services tab and my Firewall tab does not open, it is gray and I can`t click on it. Just Internet tab work now. How can I fix that? Someone had this same problem?

    Hi Kaaru Ando ,
    I can't find how to just ask a question.
    Yes, it can be hard to find... the problem is if there are Categories at the top, you won't see the Post New Topic link, like here...

    But if you drill down to one Topic, it'll show, like...

  • Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update version 1.1

    I have an original Air and older Intel iMac and Remote Install utility version 1.0
    I see there is a new Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update version 1.1
    The details of this update states:
    Products Affected
    MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008), MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)
    So I am concerned about whether I should proceed to install this on my iMac to update the Remote Install capability since none of my hardware is specifically mentioned.

    Switch900, The basic process works very well. The basic instructions are at:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1131
    I tested since I did the recent update (even though my version is still showing version 1.0) and it is working properly. However someone tipped me off to go to:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/migrationanddvdcdsharingupdate.html
    to get the update again (without getting it via Software Update) and in his case, that gave him version 1.1 I have yet to do that and will need to test again once I have done that.
    But basically you install this software on your MAC or PC that has a DVD drive, load a disc containing software that you want to install on your Air, in that other MAC or PC and then get to it from the Air and install the software over your local network.

    Sometimes and this is network dependant if they suspect the phone to be lost or stolen as in this case with change of Sim card and provider then the origonal network can and some will block the phone untill you have rang them and proven it's not the case or if you have bough this 2nd hand then the origonal seller may have stopped paying the contract bill and thus the phone is blocked

    Now You lost me (without using a computer?) - Most probably due to that I've not got an iPod Touch but mine is seven Years old - so it most probably work in a totally different way.

  • I need help with closing a running program. It seems like it does not count as a program. Tried to turn of the computer and closing all programs. Please help!?

    I have a problem with a grey text box. It writes and says all i do. For example: When i now write it says all the letters one for one. If i open a new rogram it says so. If i click on something it gives me information about it. I can click the box and drag it, but dont close it. I have restarted the computer and closing all windows and programs. It just popped out when i was pressing some buttons on the mac. I think it is a easy way to fix it, but i cant find out what it is named and search for it. I think it is made for help and i did not download anything to get it. If i change user on the mac it does go away when I am on the other user, but i really want to keep the one i have because off all the settings and programs i have.
    Please reply if you know anything about this.
    This is a printscreen of the box, the language is Norwegian if someone wonder...
    It is really annoying, I hope someone can help me out.

    Oh thanks alot! Really happy that people take the time to answer my `noob`questions! Would not find that out by my own.
    Thanks!
