After the Mac transfer from my old laptop to the mac, where do I find my copied excel files

I just had a Mac transfer done from my old laptop to my new Macbook Pro and I don't know where to find my old excel files?

What was your old laptop? Where did you keep the files on it? Please expand on the information that you have not given.

I have just downloaded iPhoto from the app store. The photo library from my old laptop was backed up on an external hard drive and I retrieved the photos from there. Now when I open the photos on my new Mac Book Pro, they are small - am I missing something?
I am using 10.8.2 Mountain Lion btw

I dragged the Photo library icon from the backup drive on to iPhoto on the laptop
That means you imported one Library to another.
Never import one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
So the reason you're seeing small photos is because you're seeing the iPhoto thumbnails from the back up library.
So, what to do?
Do you still have the back up? If so, trash this bunged up library and restore from the back up again. HOw to restore will depend entirely on how you made the back up, but no version of restoring includes importing the library.

It is not showing on the Desktop or the left colomn of Finder (Set to do both in Finder Prefernces) and is not showing up under the Disk application under Utilities (Sorry can't remember the name off the top of my head!)

You should be able to read NTFS formatted drives, just not write to them. For that matter, USB Flash drives generally come formatted NTFS for use with PC's and they have to be able to mount on a Mac in order to reformat them for Mac use. The Windows utilities supplied on those Flash drives will be deleted when the drive is reformatted for Mac use so I routinely copy them to the Mac desktop first before reformatting.
You might look into something like this http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/U3NVSPATA/ if the enclosure is an issue. It looks weird but it works.

I installed Office:mac 2011 on my new iMac running 10.8.3 and discovoed my file transfer from my old macbook installed Office:mac 2088. Now I have both installed and none of the office apps work - I keep getting the same error message

I recently purchased an iMac to replace my 2008 macbook.
I used migration assitant to transfer all of my macbook files to the iMac. I noticed that I had the old 2008 version of Office:mac 2008 on the iMac and decided to install Office:mac 2011 which installed successfully.
However, now I can't open excel or word or powwerpoint now using either 2008 or 2011.... I just get an error message saying there was an error and the app had to close. It offers to send a report to Microsoft.
I tried moving Office:mac 2008 to trash but this didn't resolve the issue.
Can anyone help (I am not a really sohpisticated user so be gentle)
Thanks Dave

I can't transfer from my old computer to the new one

I am trying to set up a new MacBook Air but I can't seem to pass everything to it from my MacBook. I have tried migration assistant with wifi and with an ethernet cable and everytime it gets stuck and my old computer keeps trying to log out. Help please.

I just got a new Imac, and downloaded files from my old PC. Now, when I go to Finder, I have 1500 files in an area called developer. What is this, and can they be deleted? There are also 78 files listed as Other! Most of these files I do not recognize.

I just got a new IMac, and tried to download files from my old PC. When I go to,Finder, I have 1500 files under Developer, an 78 files under Other.
Most of these files I do not recognize. Can they be trashed? Why did they transfer? I used a flash drive for the transfer. Also, is there a way to transfer my older email files to this new computer?
Thanks for any and all help, I really need it.
Tom

Did you use the Migration Assistant to help set up the new iMac using some of the files in the older PC? Some likely won't mean much, unless you have applications that can use or convert them. There's also a way to use the software Time Machine to import data files from an external or another computer, so you may have used that, too.
Hopefully someone with experience in a similar issue will reply...
Good luck & happy computing!

Exchange SMS from my old Iphone to the new one?

I would like all of my sms textmessages to transfer from my old Iphone3 to the new Iphone4. Is this possible?

No iTunes content on the iPhone including 3rd party apps are included with the iPhone's backup. All iTunes content on the iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer.
This is completely separate and not related to the iPhone's backup, which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. The link I provided includes all info about the iPhone's backup - the data included with the backup, etc.
There is no setting to include or not included messages and the same for any other data that is included with the iPhone's backup. It is automatic per the link provided.
Check you check the link for MobileSyncBrowser and use that to see if the messages are available with your backup to extract by the utility? I believe there is a free trial that is limited but at least will determine if the messages are included with your old iPhone's backup. If not, they are gone unless they are still available on your old iPhone. If so, you can delete the existing backup for your old iPhone and manually create a new backup for your old iPhone with iTunes.

Copy the entire iTunes folder from \Users\<User>\Music on the old drive into your music folder on the new computer.

HT201272 how do i transfer my music library from an old laptop to a new laptop BTW - i dont have the old laptop

Hi - how do i transfer my music library from an old laptop to a new laptop?? BTW - i dont have the OLD laptop anymore - am i screwed??

You cannot transfer anything from a device which you do not have, because you do not have it.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
