Best way to transfer data from one MBP to another

Hi there,
In few days time I'll be swaping MBP 15 Retina (os 10.9.3) for new one. Some thech issues with the current one. Have to send old and will get new.
TM Backups runs automaticaly Airport Time Capsule (wireless).
What is the best and safest way to transfer whole data?
How to setup Time Machine? Any special settings for last backup before will send it?
How to get all stuff back on the new one?
About 150GB on HD.
Thanks

Make a bootable backup/clone of your current machine onto an ext HD. Better than restoring from TM. Then, when you get the new machine, on first boot (assuming whoever's providing it to you hasn't already set it up), follow the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide, migrating from the bootable backup/clone.

  • Different ways to Transfer data from one database to another database

    Hi all,
    What are the ways to transfer data from one database to another database. With the following options, i Can transfer data as far as i know. Please
    correct me if i am wrong or tell me if there is any other options are available.
    1) Create database link/connection string and using this string and COPY command, we can transfer data.
    2) By using Export and Import utilities.
    I told first one to my interviewer, he told, its strange, by using, COPY command also can we transfer data ? As far as i know, we can transfer data. Am i right ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Pal

    transfer data from one database to another database.You mean store the data of one to another?
    1) Create database link/connection string and using this string and COPY command, we can transfer data.every SELECT on a DB-link is transfering data. And you can have all kind of transfers and store on the e.g CTAS of materialized views or.... the SQL*PLUS COPY :
    The COPY command is not being enhanced to handle datatypes or features introduced with, or after Oracle8i. The COPY command is likely to be made obsolete in a future release.
    But there are many others. Check for ORACLE Streams, and the "COPY" your interviewer was mentioning is about the operating file system COPY right? That's transportable tablespaces.

  • Can I use flash drives to transfer data from one MBP to another at a differ

    I've looked and cannot find any info on the use of flash drives. Can I use a flash drive to transfer data from one MBP to another one at a different location? (ie; school Apple and home MBP) Grade tests and papers at home, enter data into home computer, then put it on flash drive and carry flash drive to school, transferring data to school desk top? Are certain flash drives preferrable over others, name brands, size, etc?

    Yep, you sure can. Just about any drive will work as mentioned above. But I'm partial to SanDisk and PNY. I've used both and they work great! Currently I carry both a 2GB SanDisk Micro Cruzer and a retractable 2GB SanDisk Cruzer, both really nice. Replaced my oldie but goodie 256MB PNY drive that I've been using since they first came out.

  • What is the quickest way to transfer data from one Mac to another?

    I just bought a Macbook Air, and using the Migration Assitant, it says that it will take 32 hours to transfer data from my old Macbook to the Macbook Air.
    There must be a quicker way! What happens if I abort?

    Unless you can use Thunderbolt Target Disk Mode, the fastest means is to use a Time Machine backup from an external drive, using the quickest port you have compatible with that drive.
    However, I would NEVER, ever use Migration Asssistant for a new Mac from an old one. Setup Assistant is exponentially better, even if you have to start over.

  • What is the best way to move data from one array to another

    I'm going to be moving data from one array to a larger array on the same RAID but different controller. (I have some extra extra drives I'm also going to be installing Retrospect so I can't just restore from a backup.)
    The RAID has 450GB of production files, fonts etc.
    What is the best way to move the data over?
    I saw that someone had suggested using ditto. Would that be better than MacMV?
    I also own Bru LE so I could use that.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Ditto is a great option -- probably the best.

  • How to transfer data from one MBP to another on the same wireless network?

    Hello All,
    My wife & I both have MBP's & are connect to the internet wirelessly via a Comcast-supplied Arris modem & a Belken router I purchased.
    Please don't laugh too hard but when I share data with my wife I, first, transfer it onto a flash drvie, then I walk to my wife's mbp & transfer the data from the flash drive to her mbp.
    I have a feeling there is a better way.    Since I guess we are on the same network can I do this wirelessly some how?
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks in advance.

  • What is the best way to append data from one field to another?

    I have the following table, table1:
    Name Null? Type
    MAIL_ID NOT NULL NUMBER(10)
    LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(45)
    FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(45)
    MIDDLE_INITIAL VARCHAR2(1)
    ADDRESS_1 VARCHAR2(45)
    CITY VARCHAR2(35)
    STATE VARCHAR2(2)
    ZIP VARCHAR2(10)
    REMARKS VARCHAR2(200)
    The table has duplicate entries that need to be removed. The records that will be removed need the
    data in the Remarks column appended to the Remarks data of the record that is not deleted.
    For example, the following listing shows a sample of the duplicate records.
    Mail ID Last Name First Name M Address City St ZIP Remarks
    189 BROWN STEPHEN 6706 MOESER LN EL CERRITO CA 94530-2909 Sf7#s124,f16#d7996(NML)[Cl#117][Ml#1649][NMf1#d288][NCf9#d319][SNl#e62]

    287796 BROWN STEPHEN B 6706 MOESER LN EL CERRITO CA 94530 SNl#e1163
    The following listing shows how the kept record should appear after the duplicate records are deleted.
    Mail ID Last Name First Name M Address City St ZIP Remarks
    189 BROWN STEPHEN 6706 MOESER LN EL CERRITO CA 94530-2909 Sf7#s124,f16#d7996(NML)[Cl#117][Ml#1649][NMf1#d288][NCf9#d319][SNl#e62]RLl#a12047[IDl#i398]SNl#e1163
    I have the process of deleting duplicates working but have yet to determine the best way to move
    the Remarks data from the deleted records to the preserved record.
    I know there are probably various ways to approach this.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
    Here is the sql for deleting duplicates.
    DELETE FROM table1
    WHERE mail_id in (SELECT mail_id FROM table1
              where not first_name = 'Null' and
    not last_name = 'Null' and
              not city = 'Null' and
              not state = 'Null'and
    not last_name = 'Anon'
              minus
              select min(mail_id) from table1
              group by first_name, last_name, city, state, address_1, organization, title);
    THANKS in advance!!!!

    Here's quick and dirty example probably a better way to do it, but this is what I came up with quickly.
    My table looks like this:
    MAIL_ID LAST FIRST PHONE REMARKS
    123 Ruff Shawn 555-555-5555 Called 10-10-04
    135 Ruff Shawn 555-555-5555 Called 10-12-04
    201 Ruff Shawn 555-555-5555 Called 10-19-04
    The code below will concatenate the remarks column from the rows, and delete the 135 and 201 rows, then update the 123 row with the concatenated remarks.
    declare
    l_remarks varchar2(500);
    l_min_mail_id number;
    begin
    select min(mail_id) into l_min_mail_id
    from test
    group by last, first, phone;
    select remarks into l_remarks from test where mail_id = l_min_mail_id;
    for i in (select mail_id, remarks from test
         where last = 'Ruff'
              and first = 'Shawn'
              and phone = '555-555-5555'
              and mail_id <> l_min_mail_id)
    loop
    l_remarks := l_remarks||','||i.remarks;
    delete from test where mail_id = i.mail_id;
    end loop;
    update test set remarks = l_remarks where mail_id = l_min_mail_id;
    commit;
    end;
    Hope this helps.

  • Transfer data from one database to another without identities but keep the relation b/w PK and Foreign key

    Hi,
    I need to transfer data from one database to another database (both are identical databases). 
    1. Not transferring identity columns (primary keys). the destination table might have the same key.
    2. keep the PK's and FK's relation b/w parent and child table
    3. I have 4 levels 
    Example: tableA (col1 int identity(1,1) , col2, col3)
    tableB (col1 int identity(1,1) ,
    col2 , col3) -- col2 has the foreign key relation with tableA.col1
    tableC (col1 int identity(1,1) ,
    col2, col3) -- col2  has the foreign key relation with tableB.col1
    tableD (col1 int identity(1,1) , col2, col3) -- col2  has the foreign key relation with tableC.col1
    please advise me.

  • How do I transfer data from one iPhone to another?

    How do I transfer data from one iPhone to another?

    If your old device is an Apple using iOS 5 or later, and you have an iCloud account, you can transfer all your saved messages, email accounts, photos, notes, and other personal settings to your new iPhone.
    Here's how...
    Connect your old Apple device to WiFi and to a power source.
    Back it up to iCloud by going to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup and toggling iCloud Backup on. The time it takes to ba ckup depends on how much data you have and on the speed of your internet connection.
    iCloud backs up your device once a day. If it needs backing up before you transfer to your new iPhone 5, tap Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup. Do not start transferring before the backup is finished.
    Turn on your new iPhone and complete the setup by selecting your language and country, and choose whether to enable Location Services. When prompted, choose your WiFi network.
    When prompted to set up, choose Restore from iCloud Backup, tap Next, and enter your Apple ID and password.
    Select the backup of your old device and tap Restore. Wait until the device has finished restoring from the backup.
    When the restore process is complete, your iPhone will restart and be ready to use.
    Connect your iPhone 5 to iTunes to sync data not contained in the backup (such as music, videos, apps, and so on). You can choose the data that are synced by clicking the syncing tabs in iTunes.

  • What are the diffrent ways to copy data from one application to another?

    Hi,
    Can you guys tell me what are the different ways to copy data from one application to another application??
    I know we can do it through script logic using DESTINATION_APP.
    Is there any other way to copy data from one application to another application?
    Please help me
    Thanks,

    You can also call a custom DTSX package in SSIS via the datamanager.
    there are at least 5 ways of transfering data in BPC between apps.
    1. Through the front end (excel etc) via evdre/evsnds
    2. Through Script logic using *Dest App
    3. Using BPC's standard export dtsx package via DM
    4. Using SSIS using BPC's custom SSIS tasks
    5. Through Script logic using stored procs.
    i am sure people will come up with more.
    remember if you use ssis and move data into any table but the wb, you need to process the cube afterwards.
