  • I use Djay for my Apple and I would like to use TC as an external hd to access from Djay, however when I look for my external T1 drive I cannot find it in iTunes so I can load onto Djay? Any help?

    Initially, you asked if you can hardwire your MBA to the TC. The answer is yes, by using the optional USB Ethernet adapter that Apple provides. However, in order for your MBA to access the TC's internal or USB-attached HDD, it would need to establish a network connection to it. This would be true of any NAS device on an Ethernet network. Therein, lies the problem. Your MBA cannot connect to two networks simultaneously.
    One option then, would be to have two separate iTunes Media folders; one on the MBA & the other on the TC. This way, you can download the music to your MBA when connected to the Internet at the AirPort lounge, and then use iTunes Consolidate Library feature to transfer the audio files to the TC's iTunes Media Folder location. A great program to help maintain multiple iTunes Librarys and/or Media Folders, that you may want to consider, is PowerTunes.

    Reboot the machine holding Command and r keys down, you'll boot into Lion Recovery Partition
    In there will be Disk Utility, use that to select your Lion OS X Partition and Repair Permissions.
    After that is done reboot the machine and see if you can log in.
    If not repeat the above steps to get into Lion Recovery, get online and reinstall Lion again, it will overwrite the installed version and hopefully after that it wil work.
    Reboot and try again.
    If not follow my steps to create a Snow Leopard Data Recovery drive, then option boot from it and grab a copy of your files off the machine.
    Then reinstall all your programs onto the external drive like setting up a new machine, then use Disk Utility to erase the entire internal boot drive (select the drive media on the far left, not the partiton slightly indented) format Option: GUID , 1 partition OS X Extended and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the external to the newly formatted internal drive. Once that is finished reboot and disconnect the external drive.
    Once you go that, boot into Snow Leopard and update to 10.6.8, use the AppStore and option click on Purchases and download Lion again and install.
    Lots of work, but there is no Lion disks.

  • My dynamic form - issue with saving data (urgent-i would greatly appreciate any help)

    Hello,
    I have some problems with this dynamic form (created in livecycle)  http://www.pathology.ubc.ca/Academic_Activity_Data_Form_Jan_4_2013.pdf .  It doesn't save data unless I add a' new row' to any of these tables.   There are a few text fileds and if I type anything in there data won't be saved unless I trigger it by adding randomly a table row.  This is big problem as this form will be used for updates and if I want to change any of my entered records I will always have to remember to 'add a new row' otherwise just adding/changing text won't be saved. This might sound confusing but you will understanding what is going on if you type in your name and save the form and then type in your name, add a table row and save the form (first case won't be saved second will).
    I would greatly appreciate any help.

    I'd keep trying the other way. You may have hit it when BC was doing an update or something. If it works one way it should work the other way. But sometimes BC can be kind of temperamental and you have to do a little dance or something to get it to work. But it generally comes around and fixes itself in short time.
    Have you tried the other way again?

  • Just used Migration Assistant and can't access files, get message

    I just used Migration Assistant to move files (per directions on screen) from my older iMac to new G4 running 10.4.1. It seems as though everything has transferred, but when I try to open folders that have migrated, I get a window that says, "The folder could not be opened because you do not have sufficient access privileges".
    Is there a way to obtain these privileges? Not sure how to proceed. If not, should I scrap everything and just drag and drop files? I had hoped to preserve all of my settings, address books, older email (using macmail program), etc...
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Hello christine:
    Do you really mean OS X 10.4.1? The current level is now OS X 10.4.11.
    Try running permission repair from disk utility. If that does not work, I think I would do an archive and install on the G4:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    Than would install a pristine OS X (which would need to be updated while preserving your files, programs, and settings.

  • Using Migration Assistant to move to a new MacBook Pro generated 80 GB of additional data that cannot be traced on the HD

    I used Migration Assistant to setup my new MacBook Pro (Retina) and to transfer my user account from my 1-year old MacBook Pro. Both computers have the same harddisk (500 GB SSD), but the new one now only has 85 GB of free HD space, whereas the old one still has 168 GB free space.
    The space seems to be from files that show up as "Others" on the HD, but the large folders (music, movies, photos, documents, system, library etc.) are the same size on both computers.
    Does anyone have any idea where the extra data could come from? I assume that languages would be stored in the System or Library folders, so even if I had deleted all unused languages from my old computer (which I may have done a year ago, I am not sure), this should not result in a more than 80 GB difference in free space, should it?
    I would be glad if anyone had an idea where all the data may come from or how to get rid of it. Thanks a lot.

    I'd get an external, bootable FireWire enclosure, put the new HD into it, ensure it runs the MBP, and then swap.
    One thing to consider going forward: the new MacBooks (annoyingly!) do not have a Firewire port, so it might be a good idea to consider dual Firewire & USB 2 external drives/enclosures for future purchases. It won't matter for this swap but it will help avoid buying something that can't be used with any new Macs that don't have Firewire.
    An low cost alternative for those that just need a temporary way to mount an external drive for uses involving only Intel Macs are the newish bare-bones USB drive adaptors, such as the NewerTech USB 2.0 Universal Drive Adapter. The advantage to these gizmos, besides low cost, is that they work with both ATA & SATA drives. Some, like the NewerTech model, also support other devices, like some optical drives.

  • I would really appreciate any help on Syncing.. This can't be how it is...

    Hi,
    I would really appreciate some help with my new iTouch.
    Part a!)
    I have a Home Desktop PC with XP.
    I also have a MacBook Pro 2.4ghz running XP and Leopard.
    They both have itunes.
    My Home PC is the one with all my library on it.
    I have an iPod Nano, and a new Touch.
    Part b!)
    Now I really dont mind how I do it.. but what I would love to know is how I can use both computers with one library?
    Surely it is expected that people these days have a PC and laptop?
    And due to apples savvy marketing I have more than one Ipod.
    How can I use all my equipment?
    Ideally, I would love to just use my back up CD's from the PC, somehow rip them onto the laptop and just use the touch with my laptop, and the nano with the PC.
    So, I really want to get my library (over 8gb's of music!) on to both my Ipods.. is this possible?
    If not.. why not!?
    Any help will be so very much appreciated.
    Thanks

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
    Disable your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes installing work.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

  • Seems I have a iClould account but not sure how I got it or how to access it on my iPad.  Any help in figuring this out would be appreciated.

    Seems I have a iCloud account on my iPad but not sure how I got it as I do not remember signing up for this feature.  I got an e  mail message saying I was running out for space on my iCloud and was given directions on how to find it on my iPad.  I followed the directions but there was no iClound anywhere in my iPad settings.
    Any help in figuring this out would be appreciated.   

    If your iPad is running iOS 5 or higher, iCloud would be listed in Settings.  If you are signed into an iCloud account your iCloud ID would be listed in Settings>iCloud.

  • HT4796 How to solve my situation of having several Mac users created for me as I used Migration Assistant multiple times to move files from my PC

    I recently tried to migrate data from my old and perpetually unstable PC to my new iMac through the Set up Assistant.  However, half way through the 6 hour process, my PC crashed (the exact reason why I finally bought a Mac!) and the connection was lost. I continued with the Mac set up and then tried again later to migrate the files with Migration Assistant.  Since I was nervous that my PC would crash again, I decided to do the data transfer in multiple migrations (ie. first I did photos and then after seeing that that was done successfully I did music and so on).  Unexpected to me, even though all of the 4 migrations were successful I now have 4 additional users (in addition to the one I set up durnig the initial process) because each migration created a new user.  Each user has  little bits of my data. 
    What is the easiest way to merge these users or at least the data that resides in each one?  I really only want one user.  thank you.

    You may not have created a mess, it's possible you simply don't know where your data is after migrating. Had you followed the Setup Assistant's on-screen prompts when you initially turned on your new system you would be running just fine by now. My guess is you haven't been exposed to Pondini's Lion Setup Assistant tips.
    Migration Assistant (MA) and Setup Assistant (SA) are cousins, similar but different. The primary difference is MA creates a new user account which can be confusing to some users. If you successfuly migrated then log out of your existing using account and you should see the new user account. Log into that account then you should see the migrated data. If you do then use Pondini's Transferring files from one User Account to another.
    However if you have totally made of mess out of things then I'd start over, this time using the Setup Assistant Tips beginning where he discusses Second Chance.

  • Used migration assistant--cant find my music files now????

    I transfered all of my pictures from my old macbook to this one and found them, then I did the music from itunes and now I cannot find those files.
    I know they transferred because my hard drive has much less space. Where else can I look for these files? I even searched "itunes" and ".mp3" in the hard drive search box and it doesn't come up with any of my old music..any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    The files should be in /Users/your_name/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music - if you've changed usernames with the migration they are possibly in another User/name/Music folder ?
    The extensions are probably .m4a and if you use Finder/Find (or Apple F from the Desktop) you can search for them that way too.

  • Cannot use Migration Assistant from OS 10.4.11 Mac Mini G4 to MBP 10.5.7

    Please help!
    I just bought my new 13" MBP, and cannot for the life of me get Migration Assistant to work! First I tried the Firewire 400 - 800 cable. My Mac Mini does go into Fire Wire drive mode with the icon on the screen, but the MBP never seems to see it.
    Then I tried over the network - Airport didn't work, so I tried over ethernet (also crossover just to eliminate the option), nothing works. I get the same symptoms that I have read in a thousand forums so far - I have to enter in the code on the mini, it prepares files, then enter the code again, and it says searching for more computers until the MBP says error.
    I do not have an external USB drive to try.
    I made sure to run Software Update on both machines.
    I also turned OFF firewall on both.
    I just bought my MBP tonight, and really hope I don't already need to call Applecare!
    Please help!!
    Thanks,
    ~Andy

    Hello,
    I had the exact same issues and same situation, apple support (after some ridiculous suggestions) suggested and it worked for me; and in addition I uninstalled all Antivirus software and turned the airport off on both machines.
    On the old machine:
    Install the newest migration assistant off the the install DVD that came with the new computer and boot up to the desktop - start the migration assistant (Applications --> Utilities) connect both computers with an ETHERNET cable.
    On the new machine:
    Complete the initial setup (choose transfer my info later) and when asked for a user-name choose something OTHER than the user on your old machine, something like "Test". Start the migration assistant on the new machine and choose network and follow the instructions.
    Good Luck
