Bookmark migration from BW 3.5 to 7.0

Hi,
We have a requirement for a client, where we need to migrate all the Bookmarks which is on BW 3.5 to BI 7.0. I have read some of the threads, from which I am not able to understand clearly. Can u please provide me the step by step process, on how to migrate or there any kind of utility program that is be written to migrate. Any suggestions is appreciated.
Regs,
Muskan.

Hi,
Please note that 3.X bookmarks will not work in 7.0 runtime.
There is no migration path for 3.X bookmarks to 7.0 as it uses different set of tables to store bookmarks.
Please check OSS note 832713 for more info.
Regards,
KK.

My new iMac is not shipping with Lion installed. Will I be able to do a Migration from my PC to my iMac without installing Lion first?

My new iMac is not shipping with Lion installed. Will I be able to do a Migration from my PC to my new iMac? I only want to transfer photos and my music, currently on my PC (and on my iPod Touch & iPad).
Can anyone give me a list of steps to follow or let me know if Migration Assistant is available prior to Lion for PC to Mac?
Thank you so so so much!

SweetDee,
I'd be VERY surprised if your machine was not shipping with Lion installed. However even if it doesn't when you initally install Lion it will launch into Setup Assistant, if you follow the prompts it will ask if you are migrating from another machine. You can use Pondini's Lion Setup Assistant tips for help, look for the section(s) on MS Windows migration. Also I would strongly recommend bookmarking and studying the following sites:

How best to migrate from MacPro to iMac w/ SSD and extrenal drives

Currently I have a MacPro with 4 drives - 3 1TB and 1 2Tb, the 2TB drive is my main hard drive, so it has system, apps, documents, itunes etc....and it has been upgraded and migrated from one computer to the next as long as apple has had the ability to do so (and before that by moving over targeted drive manually). I currently am running 10.6.8 on the machine. I have ordered a new iMac w/ an internal 512gb SSD drive, and after speaking with an Apple rep, I got a THunderbolt enclosure to house my current 4 hard drives. Now my question is how best to get my preferences etc into the new computer w/o dragging along all the old stuff...(ie old apps not compatible w/ Mountain Lion, old system folders, etc). Here is what I would like to do:
1. setup SSD with OS, fresh installs of Apps, and my fonts (i am a designer and i have a gazillion fonts and they always take way to long to load into my font app).
2. I would like my 2TB drive to eventually just include my home directory where all my files, and such will be stored. But I would like to keep the drive as is to make sure everything is working just in case, I dont want to have any down time during the upgrade process (ie if a client calls me and needs something while I am still setting up I could boot off the 2tb drive and work). But after all is working properly then I would like to make it just the home directory and main place for all files etc
3. My remaining 3 drives are broken up for manual backups of my work on 2 of the drives, and then photos and mp3s on one, and movies and tv shows from itunes on the other. I dont currently run Time Machine or Retrospect or RAID....
I see most people saying to create 2 admin accounts, one that would stay on the SSD drive and the other which could be mapped to the 2TB drive and have its home directory there...but what do I do about moving preferences etc? is there a way when setting up that will let me import my current account and let me keep it on the external drive as is? should i move the files that i want to keep off the 2tb drive, wipe it to get rid of the old apps and system and then put back the home directory??I don't want to run into trouble with permissions, and I really dont even want to create 2 accounts because I hate having to close everything and log out for simple installs and updates...i have 2 on my macbook pro now and i run into errors all the time of i cant update this or that because of admin account...even though both accounts are set as admin.
I want to keep the whole upgrade simple, but I would like to keep this fresh system clean as am sure there is way to much left over garbage from upgrades past. So just not sure how best to do any of it.....

I purchased the DataTale RS-M4t SMART 4-Bay Thunderbolt RAID storage enclosure. But it can do both RAID if you get their data manager software download, or it can just mount the drives and be used normally. So basically I can plug all 4 of my current drives into it...and it into my iMac and it will be same as if I had it in my tower....so really not moving over a ton of stuff. I will load all apps fresh onto the brand new iMac - so the SSD will be a clean install...my worries are trying to get access to home directories etc on the current main drive and have things get setup correctly, keychains, bookmarks, etc...as well as my iTunes which has iPad and iPhone backups, etc. I am just not sure as how to best setup the SSD to get the most of its speed while being able to get my current account working but on the second external drive.

Migrating from G5

Hi guys - I just got a new MacPro and I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to move my apps and info over from my G5. I started by using the migration tool to bring over all the apps, and then I started mucking with the library to move over prefs and application support files, in the hopes of avoiding any re-registration nightmares, but that seems to have been a bad idea. What's the recommended procedure? (And, if I've botched something in a nasty way, what's the best way to recover?)

Just a note, there is a KB article regarding Migration from Intel from PPC.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304302
This probably doesn't cover the gambit of issues that might be causing you consternation but might be a good starting point.
Additionally, there are other factors that might contribute to this. Several applications add their license and registration keys in a variety of locations, typically the Application Support folder, which should have been copied over with the migration assistant.
A typical migration for me begins with backing up to my .Mac using the .Mac sync. This will back up bookmarks, address books, iCal calendar events ect... Then using migration assistant to copy over my user folder to the new machine.

Migrating from Plumtree 5.02 to 5.04

Hi,
We plan to migrate from 5.02 to 5.04. Is there a document around about this type of migration?If not, there are some issues: - is the database the same? what other changes must be performed other than redirecting the portal50 ODBC connection? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!Val

Hey HoustonMustang,
Lets see if we can clear this up for you. You can do either option for migrating data. Now to clarify, if you use Migration Assistant, then it will handle all those things for you without you having to do much of the leg work. If you opt for more of a File Sharing option then using Target Disk mode to view your old Mac as an external hard drive to copy over data can be easier to navigate and copy over what you need.
The first article can walk you through with that process of setting up Migration Assistant to then copy your data over. The second article will go over Target Disk Mode and copying files the old fashion way.
Move your data to a new Mac
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5872
OS X Yosemite: Transfer files between two computers using target disk mode
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19021
Going on to Safari Bookmarks, if you are not going through the route of Migration Assistant you could copy over the bookmarks plist or you can go to the drop down menu File > Export Bookmarks, it should make a file to be copied over and then copy it to your new computer to be imported in.
Safari 8 (Yosemite): Import bookmarks and history from other browsers
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19289
As for setting up the Guest account, go to System Preferences > Users & Groups, you will then click on the lock button in the left hand corner to unlock it. Then click on Guest User and it should be a check box to “Allow guests to log in to this computer”. The article below will have more information in case you need it.

Migration from os 10.2 to 10.8

I just purchased a new MacBook Air running os 10.8.2. I want to migrate from an old iBook G4 running os 10.2.
I went to the Genius Bar at the local Apple store a few days ago and the guy told me to plug in my firewire backup external hard drive (with firewire to thunderbolt cable) to the new MacBook Air. Boot the Air and hold down the "T" key. But it will not migrate or even find the drive. Yet when I boot to the finder the external hard drive shows up in the finder and I see everything on the backup drive. Any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful.
All I really need is email transferred from Apple Mail so I don't have to reorganize my mail. I could just drag over my photos, music, documents and bookmarks.

A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
1. Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
2. Screensavers written for the PowerPC System Preference add-ons
3. All Unsanity Haxies Browser and other plug-ins
4. Contextual Menu Items
5. Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5 Kernel extensions
6. Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro , SuperDuper , and Drive Genius work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.
Additional links that will be helpful to new Intel-Mac users:
1. Intel In Macs
2. Apple Guide to Universal Applications
3. MacInTouch List of Compatible Universal Binaries
4. MacInTouch List of Rosetta Compatible Applications
5. MacUpdate List of Intel-Compatible Software
6. Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
7. OS X Lion: How to use Migration Assistant to transfer files from another Mac
Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake
      or there's some other problem.
3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
4. Startup your old Mac in Transferring files between two computers using FireWire.
5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and
       registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your
       desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:
a. MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch,
      Late 2008) - What to do if migration is unsuccessful;
b. MacBook Air - Migration Tips and Tricks;
c. MacBook Air - Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and
      wireless 802.11n networks.
Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist /Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft.
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

Migrating from old iBook

Since the new MacBook has no Firewire I started the migration from an old iBook to the new MacBook by ethernet. However, the Assistant on the DVD that comes with the new MacBook does not run on 10.3.
Now what?
Apple, what the &^%#*? Are you indeed turning into M$?

I used Migration Assistant (MA) to transfer all my files and media from my old PowerBook G4 to my new MacBook. When I opened MA on the old computer, I was asked to put the OS X CD that came with the new Mac into the old optical drive. Something was downloaded onto the old Mac that made it compatible with the new Mac. I assumed it was to sync the versions of MA but I was never told. All I know was that I was then able to begin the transfer.
I used my wireless connection rather than the ethernet ports. To my dismay, the transfer took over 11 hours. To give you some scale, I had over 6000 photos and videos, about 1200 songs, less than 100 docs. As I primarily use the old computer for the internet and iLife, I had very few applications other than the ones that came with it when I bought it. However, I wanted the settings and bookmarks - especially Safari - so I included Applications in the transfer. That's where I think I made a mistake because it seemed to take an inordinate amount of time checking versions and transferring. You never really know what is going on during the transfer but there are vague one-liners like, "Transferring Applications" that are displayed under the sliding thermometer that tracks your progress. I left the two computers open, side by side, and went to bed with my fingers crossed.
I got up the next morning and immediately looked at the new Mac to see if everything/anything had come over. I couldn't find a thing but I had lost 40 Gigs of memory somewhere. I searched frantically through every folder on the new hard-drive but couldn't find the new files. I finally had to take it down to the Apple store where I have bought it and get a Genius to help me. First thing he did was check my Users folder to see how many logins there were for this computer. To distinguish the old Mac from the new Mac, I had forgotten that I had added my middle initial to my name. A simple logoff and login as my new personna and Voila! Transfer completed!! Everything right where it should be and all my settings. MA was slow but it worked.
Sorry for relating the total saga but I it might be useful to others. I don't know if using an ethernet cable would have speeded things up. Maybe someone else can tell that story.
I'm happy with the new MacBook, although I miss the size and convenience of my old beloved 12" G4. I don't have any glare issues because I tilt the screen and change my seat for better light - which is why I thought most of us bought a laptop and not a desktop. It's mobile, faster, bigger, and brighter. I'm happy. Hope this helps.

Migration from Powerbook G4 10.3.9 to MacBook Pro 10.7.1

Dear community,
I recently replaced my much beloved Powerbok G4 to a MacBook Pro. I have major problems figuring out how to migrate from the old computer to a new one. I am not so much interested in transferring applications, as the two machines are too different (different processors, different operating systems etc.), but to transfer application data like mails, keychain, bookmarks etc.
I have the following probkem: Setup assistant in Powerbook G4 10.3.9 and Migration assistant in MacBook Pro does 10.7.1 does not seem to be compatible with each other. Setup assistant in Powerbook G4 would need a firevire link, but MacBookj Pro does not seem to have a firewire port, just a thunderbolt and USB. Is there any way to link to Powerbook through firewire from the MacBook pro so that migration assistant would work?
The Migration assitant in MacBook Pro lists several options, but Ethernet and wireless does not seem to be compatible with Powerbook. Is there any easy way to conduct migration through wireless network or ethernet cable?
Please advise how to proceed.

Maybe Pondini's Setup new Mac guide will help.

Creation of domain issues - migration from weblogic 10.3.0 to 10.3.5 versio

Hello,
i would like to kindly ask for a help with following issue:
Basically we are migrating from the 10.3.0 to the 10.3.5 version. We are building the domain using the template in "silent mode". And when i try to create the domain with new weblogic 10.3.5 im getting some errors.
The command to run the creation of the domain is following:

I tried to google for this issue, look into the weblogic documentation but with no luck.
So i would like to kindly ask, if anyone of you perhaps could give me a hint/advise with this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
thanks for the reply but im not sure if we are talking about the same thing. What i need is to upgrade the weblogic "DOMAIN" not the weblogic installation itself.
Anyway,
after some googling and testing im again stucked with another issue:
1. First i have created the old doman (10.3.0)
2. Then i have tested the domain with the new weblogic version 10.3.5 - as it should be (and is) compatible within those 2 versions
---> worked fine
3. Then via offline WLST(of weblogic 10.3.5) i have managed to create new template with command writeTemplate(nameOfTemplate.jar)
4. But when i try to create the new domain with the new template via WLST(of weblogic 10.3.5) im again stucked (im able to read the template in wlst but not able to writeDomain ) - error:
wls:/offline> readTemplate('/home/wg372/tmp/new_template.jar')
wls:/offline/BmDomain>writeDomain('/home/wg372/tmp/new_domain')
Error: writeDomain() failed. Do dumpStack() to see details.
wls:/offline/BmDomain>dumpStack()

I tried to have a look around for the "The application location must have write permission." problem but again with no luck.
Furthemore when i try to do the same with old domain template, with old version of WLST (of weblogic 10.3.0), i have no problems with creating of the domain.
Any ideas?
Ill keep you updated :-)

Removing Public Folders after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

Recently we migrated from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We did not migrate Public Folders and are retiring them from Exchange altogether. I shut Exchange 2007 off for a couple of weeks to ensure 2013 functions properly and it does so we're
ready to decommission Exchange 2007. I was able to remove all the mailbox databases without a glitch. Using the EMC I click to remove the Public Folder database from Exchange 2007 and get the following message:
Error: The public folder database "server\storage group - Public Folders\ Public Folder Database" contains folder replicas. Before deleting the public folder database, remove the folders or move the replicas to another public folder database.
Any help appreciated.

Hi Terry,
If you run the following command does it come back with any public folders?
Get-PublicFolderStatistics -Server "SERVERNAME" | fl
If nothing comes back you can follow this guide to manually remove the public folder database (at your own risk) http://haythamalex.wordpress.com/2011/11/24/how-to-force-exchange-server-public-folder-removal/
Cheers,
Jack
I get alot of output from that command.

ActiveSync stops working after migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

We have started the migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We've followed best practices and everything is working great except ActiveSync. I've performed Exchange migrations in the past so this is nothing new for me. I've also been referring to
a great guide which has been a big help,
http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2013/migration-deployment/planning-and-migrating-small-organization-exchange-2007-2013-part1.html.
Once a user is migrated from Exchange 2007 to 2013, ActiveSync stops working properly. Email can be pulled to the device (Nokia Lumia 625 running Windows Phone 8) by performing a manual sync. But DirectPush is not working. The strange part is it's not affecting
everyone who's been migrated. Anyone who is still on Exchange 2007 is not affected.
At first I thought it was our wildcard certificate. 99% of our users are running Outlook 2013 on Windows 7 or higher but we do have a few terminal servers still running Outlook 2010. Outlook 2010 was giving us certificate errors. I realized it was the wildcard
certificate. Rather than making changes to the OutlookProvider I simply obtained a new SAN certificate. Although that resolved the issues for Outlook 2010 users, ActiveSync was still a problem.
Rebooting the phones and removing the email account from the user's device and re-adding it didn't resolve the issue either.
Then I performed an iisreset on the CAS server. This didn't help either. I didn't know it at the time, but I was getting closer...
I tried using the cmdlet Test-ActiveSyncConnectivity but it gave me the following error:
WARNING: Test user 'extest_0d9a45b025374' isn't accessible, so this cmdlet won't be able to test Client Access server
connectivity.
Could not find or sign in with user DOMAIN.com\extest_0d9a45b025374. If this task is being run without
credentials, sign in as a Domain Administrator, and then run Scripts\new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 to verify that
the user exists on Mailbox server EX02.DOMAIN.COM
I started reviewing how Exchange 2013 proxied information from the CAS to the mailbox server and realized the issue may in fact be on the mailbox server.
I performed an iisreset on the mailbox server and all of a sudden ActiveSync started working again. Awesome!
I can't explain why. The only thing I can assume is when some users were migrated from 2007 to 2013 something wasn't being triggered on the Exchange 2013 side. Resetting IIS resolved the issue. I guess I'll have to do an IIS reset after I perform a batch
of migrations. Disabling ActiveSync and re-enabling it for the affected users didn't help - only the IISRESET resolved the issue.
If anyone has any information as to why this happens, please chime in. Also, if anyone knows why I can't run the Test-ActiveSyncConnectivity cmdlet, I'd appreciate the help.
Thanks.

Hi,
In Exchange 2013, the Public Folder is changed to Public Folder mailbox instead of Public Folder in Exchange 2007 database.
Due to the changes in how public folders are stored, legacy Exchange mailboxes are unable to access the public folder hierarchy on Exchange 2013 servers. However, user mailboxes on Exchange 2013 servers or Exchange Online can connect to legacy
public folders. Exchange 2013 public folders and legacy public folders can’t exist in your Exchange organization simultaneously. This effectively means that
there’s no coexistence between versions.
For this reason, it’s recommended that prior to migrating your public folders, you should
first migrate your all legacy mailboxes to Exchange 2013. For more information about migrating public folder from previous versions, please refer to:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150486(v=exchg.150).aspx

Cross Forest Migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

Hi
Could anybody advice me the steps also the pros and cons for below mentioned environment if we are going for the cross forest migration.
Source
Domain - test.local
Active Directory - Windows 2003
Exchange Server - 2007
Target
Domain - test.net
Active Directory - Windows 2012
Exchange Server - 2013
Also if it is possible ,
How could I remove the source environment including the exchange servers. after the migration ?
Regards
Muralee

Hi Oliver ,
Please suggest us.
In my environment we are in a plan to migrate from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 (cross forest migration).
Source : Exchange 2007 with sp3 ru 10
Target : Exchange 2013 with cu2 ( new environment yet to be created).
Trust : Forest trust in place (two way )
Domain and forest functional level : 2003 in both target and source
Migration Steps :
Step1 :
We are in a plan to execute 'preparemoverequest.ps1' first in the target forest ,so that we will get the disable MEU
in the target forest.
Step2:
Then we are going to use ADMT to migrate users SID'S and password .
Step3:
Then we are going to move the mailboxes with New-moverequest
Please have a look in to our steps and suggest us ,whether we are going to proceed the migration in a right way or not
.Is anything needs to be changed please intimate me .
Thanks
S.Nithyanandham
Hey there,
Sorry for taking a little while to get back to you, i've been busy working on Hosted Lync deployments!
Use ADMT first, then when using preparemoverequest.ps1 script using the -uselocalobject cmdlet. This will then tie it up to the ADMT migrated account.

Migrating from Exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 ( special case )

Hello ,
what is the BEST scenario ( fastest , most efficient , most secure in terms of data loss ) , to migrate from exchange 2007 ( one server , all exchange roles installed on this server , 1200 mailbox ) , to exchange 2013 ?
knowing my environment needs to be connected to their mailboxes , 24/7 !
it's very frustrating .
and i have no clue even if this is the right place to post about this , if not please refer me as to where to post .
Also , All my domain controllers are 2008 .

It's fine to post your question here, and you are fine with Server 2008 Domain Controllers - that is a supported scenario.
If you haven't performed such an upgrade and you need to have 24/7 mailbox availability, I would seriously recommend you to duplicate the production environment on a test network and run through the upgrade at least once.
Most people neglect the Outlook clients requirements - they need to be updated and include several specific updates, which allow the automatic reconfiguration of internal clients. If you are preparing for this upgrade, you should be aware that all internal
Outlook clients switch to Outlook Anywhere. Clients that miss these updates will get connectivity problems.
Another common problem is the configuration of the Exchange URL - I mean the Exchange 2013 URL and the modified Exchange 2007 URL that will allow the co-existence. In your case, you definitely need to plan for co-existence - that includes requesting and
installing a new Exchange UCC (Multiple Domain Certificate) on both Exchange servers, configuring Split DNS (or preferably PinPoint DNS zones), and correct timing when replacing the existing Certificate on the Exchange 2007 server. Failure to configure the
correct URL (and it's quite easy to miss one, so triple check them) will get you in trouble.
Once you get through the switchover (switching the mail flow and Client Access through the Exchange 2013 server), move just a couple of test mailboxes and check the result.
Finally, if you are moving the Public Folders, make sure that the lock is really applied before you complete the process. Most people proceed right away and that get's the process stuck. If you can afford it (the mailboxes are already on the Exchange 2013
server at that point), just restart the Exchange 2007 server (after locking the Public Folders) and then complete the Public Folder migration.
Good Luck with the project!
