Applications with serial numbers from old to new mac

Hello,
I just purchased a new Retina Display MBP as an upgrade to my old iMac.
I have over 200 Applications taking up the bulk of my drive, many of which have serial numbers that I no longer even know of due to loss of original boxes, or what have you.
I am trying to avoid copying all of my content over to the new MBP, I would much rather just move what I actually need to and try to keep it a little "cleaner". So my question is, with a Time Machine Backup of my iMac... Can I plug that into the MacBook Pro, launch Time Machine, and simply drag the last backup's Applications over? Will the ones with the serial numbers run?
Is there a better way to do it?
Thanks!

Use Migration Assistant. You can customise to a certain extent what you transfer over, but it'd be easier to transfer all your stuff that way and then delete what you don't want.

Downloading CS5 with serial numbers from disks onto new computer

I have adobe creative suite 5 design premium from disks that I bought. I want to upload them to my new computer but my new computer does not have a place to put the cd disks in. I tried to download it online by typing in my serial numbers on the back of the box, but when I do that it says the code is invalid. What do I do?

Adobe Activation error I bought a used CS2 application with serial numbers: it loads fine and works, but I cannot activate it and it will run out in 26 days. I bought it on ebat for 40 dollars. I am willing to pay a royalty fee. In 2006, or so, I bought a student version of CS2 at the College bookstore legally and registered it and it is still running on my 2002 eMac, but my Mac cannot communicate with my wireless printer I just got. So I looked for a copy of CS2 to put on my second hand IBM PC.

How do I move my PlayLists from old to new Mac?

Just got a new Mac with Lion on it.
I have moved my iTunes Library collection over from old computer to new one.
But, how can I move all my old 'PlayLists' from my other machine to my new one as I don't want to spend days re-making them all?
Thanks

The iTunes Library.itl file is a database of the songs in your library and the playlists you've created. Some song-specific data is saved in this file. If you delete the file, iTunes creates a new, empty copy when you open the application, but any playlists, song ratings, comments, or other information you created is lost.
Find the file on your old Mac and copy it to your new Mac.
Read this for details: What are iTunes library files: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660

Transfer from old to new Mac impossible

I can't transfer the information from old G5 to a new Mac Pro 8 core. Using T mode, as described, transfer doesn't occur after two hours at all. There is a window "Transferring information" but nothing happens. Using SuperDuper! or Migration Assistant from OS10.4.10 to copy the entire bootable volume from the external HD, is impossible. However, it's possible to copy the old volume to a second, non startup disk, but without libraries, which is worthless.
Do I have to manually transfer the libraries to the new computer in order to use the old applications? It's going to take for ever. I have no idea why the simple transfer from the old Mac to the new doesn't work as advertise.

When you booted up the new machine the first time, did you use the migration assistant? If not, you might want to try using the Restore disk and restore the Mac Pro to its factory state. Also, take a look at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25773 and A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs. Those should get you started in the right direction.

How to Transfer Files from old to new Mac Mini?

Iphoto library from old to new mac

I just upgraded to Macbook pro retina display.
I have all my photos in iphoto on my older macbook.
I use faces on every photo and instead of just copying the photos, I want to make sure I do not lose anything (like faces desigantions).
How can I do this?
I also have a time capsule that has many backups from my macbook.
Thank you

Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

Transferring from old to new Mac

I would like to transfer some of the files, apps etc on our old Mac G4 to a new Mac Mini. Problem is we only have one monitor. Any thoughts on the best way? G4 is running on 10.4.11 and Mini has the latest. We do have a Powerbook as well.

Sorry, new. How to get rid of files left from firewire transfer from old to new mac shows up in finder.

When I transferred files by firewire from a macbook to a macbook (snow leopard) I find some type of files in the finder of the newer mac. They look like
user files and appear to show network connections or something I do not recognize, I don't seem to be able to delete these files for some reason. Is there
any way short of formatting and starting over please??
Thanks

The best method is to archive the contents of the TC to a disk.. archive is available via the airport utility.
Simply plug in a USB drive large enough to store all the material presently on the TC, 1TB or 2TB or 3TB.. whichever model it is.
Archive I have drawn red box around.
Once the archive has completed ..
Use the Erase disk.. just the Quick erase is ok.. takes a couple of min and then you have a nice empty drive to start loading TM backups on.

IWork from old to new Mac, problem occurred.

Greetings,
iWork I have bought years ago on CD and installed on MB-Pro.
Now I have a MB-Air.
Since the Air has no CD/DVD player I transferred iWork from Pro to Air.
Starting up Pages (i.e.) on the Air I get this message:
I can't find the installer (also through a search. iWork search gives: iWork folder containing: Keynote, Numbers, Pages apps)
The DVD player of the Pro is broken.
I rather not repurchase or buy an update.
I rather not Download due expenses ($40.00 per GB) (Sitting in a cafe or neighbour i.e. to Download is not an option)
Is there a solution to get iWork working properly from this situation?
Thanks!

I never wrote that applications can't be updated when they are stored in a non standard location.
I wrote that iWork applications, when delivered as a single package, must be stored together in a given folder for such process.
At this time they weren't delivered as single separated apps but as a package.
In fact this feature apply only to iWork '09.
It's because for this package, updaters applied to the three embedded applications.
Only the late update was a Keynote only one.
For iWork '08, there were separated updaters for each applications so, installing them out of their original folder wasn't a problem.
The fact that you forget to copy the resources when you wanr to work from an other system is not an Apple problem, it's yours.
I repeat that you were wrong and that you didn't understood what you were writing about, because the shared folder, the one which must be copied, is not the one which you described with :
upon first run, the app creates its folder in Application Support if need be.
The shared folder:
Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:iWork '09:
or
Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:iWork '09:
is not created at application's first launch, it's created by the installer during the installation process.
The one which you described is :
Macintosh HD:Users:<userAccount>:Library:Application Support:iWork:
For someone understanding the way iWork is installed, the copy process is perfectly neat and clear.
It is more efficient than installing then apply the required updates which, to be up to date require :
install iWork
apply iWork update9.1
apply keynote update 5.1.1

Migrate email from old to new mac (outlook to entourage)

Hello.
Anyone have any ideas on how to migrate email messages from an old imac (OS 9.2) to a new one (OS X). The old machine is running Outlook and the new one is Entourage. There are ways to save individuals messages as text and then move them over, but that is a lot of saving (one at a time). I don't see an export option in Outlook.
Thanks for any advice.
imac Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Can I merge ical from old, non cloud Mac with new one?

Can I merge ical from old, non cloud Mac with new one?
I cannot sync from old G5 so if I backup that iCal, can I merge it with new iCal on my new Mac without losing new Mac calenday details?
Thanks.
Jeff

Jeff,
First, iCloud: How to back up iCloud data.
Next, use iCal>File>Export>Export...for the calendar that you want to use for the export. Move the .ics file to your new computer, and double click the file. You will be offered a choice of creating a new calendar in iCloud, or importing to an existing calendar. Make the appropriate choice for your circumstances.

Is there a way to move Messages and Local (not synced with iCloud) notes from old iPhone to new one ?

Is there a way to move Messages and Local (not synced with iCloud) notes from old iPhone to new one ?

Yes, it will. You cannot merge information on the phone. If you want the old messages, you will need to restore from a backup of the old phone, which will make the new phone look just like the old phone. If you want to save the messages from the new phone, you will not be able to get the messages from the old phone.

Thanks
Berni

thanks for your help. You may right that Adobe Photoshop is not a tidy programm. But it is the only of my applications that make problems after using the MA. Anf for what the MA ist made for?
But i still have a question. Is this cc-cleaner as well working for Photoshop Elements 8.0? I tried the link but at the second step "Uninstall Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications" I do not find at the Application folder the Utitily folder.
Thanks

How did you migrate? Unless you cloned over a complete system you just made a bunch more trouble for yourself. You can never, never migrate PSE with the migration assistant. PSE is not a tidy package app in accordance with the apple developer guidelines. It strews stuff all over your hard drive and puts things in places the MA isn't programmed to look. Now you will have a lot of manual cleaning up to do. You must always reinstall PSE from scratch.
First download and run this:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation -problems.html
Then you can manually remove the bits that got copied over. You can't use spotlight to help with this; it's programmed to ignore these kinds of files. In addition to what's in the applications folder, you will need to go to the library at the top level of your hard drive>Application Support>Adobe and remove anything in there, as well as your username>library>preferences. Then you can reinstall from your original media.
