Can I replace the data on my iMac with that on my Macbook Pro?

I've been traveling for a year and am now home.  I'd like to transfer all my updated files, programs etc. from my Macbook Pro to the  iMac (2.7 GHz Intel Core i5).  I'll move them back when I leave to travel again.  Can I do this?  If so can anyone tell me how.
Thanks,
Onalayah

You are welcome. Procedure is the same.
Target Disk Mode - Mavericks
Finder/Preferences/General - check show hard disks on Desktop.

  • How can I sync the contacts in my phone with those on my MacBook Pro? I already have an iCloud account, and everything else (calendars,music, etc.I is already synched) but the contacts won't.

    How can I sync the contacts in my phone with those on my MacBook Pro? I already have an iCloud account, and everything else (calendars,music, etc.I is already synched) but the contacts won't.

    Ok.
    Open System Preferences, Apple Logo icon in the menu bar and then System Preferences or the Sys Pref iocon in the Dock and go to the Internet Accounts area and look at your iCloud account. It should list what is and isn't synced by a checkmark next to each item.
    Also in the Contacts app click on Contacts in the menu bar and select Preferences then accounts and make sure your iCloud account is listed. You can also do that from the Internet Accounts area in System Preferences.

  • How can I have my Data on my iMac, my iPhone 4, my Macbook Pro and iCloud without duplicating in any one of them ?

    I'm really tired of looking to my Address Book and see the same groups and contacts "On My Mac", iCloud and etc... . If I look at my iMac I don't want to see what is on iCloud and vice versa. I don't want to see my iCal also duplicated ... .
    I need my informations to be on my desktop computer at my  office. I need the same informations on my MacBook Pro on a meeting with my clients. I need them on my cel phone or my iPad. I need them on internet (iCloud) if I don't have any Apple device beside me. But I don't need them duplicated in none of them.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Can you export the date and user to Excel that appears into a Comments field in a tracking list?

    Hi everyone,
    Can you export the date and user to Excel that appears into a Comments field in a tracking list?
    When i export a tracking list with a Comment field in the Content type, the screen where you enter the data for an item, the Comments field just export the text of the comment into the Excel file.
    In the Comments field appears also, besides the comment text,  the user and date from who and when the comment is added.
    Is there a way to export also the user and the date?
    Thanks
    Wim

    create another comment field that doesn't use 'appending', and through SP Designer change workflow keep
    updating that field with the new comments  (prepend the field with date/username/new comment). Hide the field on all forms, but put it in the view you need to export to Excel.
    Please refer few more links: Hope they will help

  • Can i replace the casing on a 5G with a 6G  case?

    can i replace the casing on a 5G with a 6G  case?

    I wouldnt suggest doing that type of modification.  Apple will not do that for you.  If you are intent on that keyboard and your MB Air has bluetooth spend the extra $20 and get the wireless one.

    How can I have the same environment on two macs on is a macbook pro and the other a Mac mini ?

    Forget trying to use iCloud for this - it won't do what you want.  iCloud syncs certain data like contacts and events, but it doesn't sync "environments" on computers.

  • Does OS Lion 10.7.5 support Airplay mirror of Apple TV 3? I can't find the option in Setting Display on my mid 2012 MacBook Pro.

    Does OS Lion 10.7.5 support Airplay mirror of Apple TV 3? I can't find the option in Setting>Display on my mid 2012 MacBook Pro.
    I've rebooted all 3 devices, still does not work. Both Apple TV and MBP are on the same wifi. And the Apple TV AirPlay option is on. Can someone help? Thank you.

    About AirPlay and Airplay Mirroring
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). For non-qualifying Macs you can try using Air Parrot.

  • Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro? Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?

    Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro? Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?

    Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro?
    Yes, if you are asking about using Time Machine to backup the Mac.
    Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?
    You are not thinking of deleting the photos and files on your Mac, are you?  If you do this, you will have no backups for those files.
    Another concern is that Time Machine backs up the changes on your Mac. At some point, Time Machine will automatically delete the photos and files from the Time Capsule.....you just don't know when this might occur.
    In other words, only delete files from your Mac that you can afford to lose.

  • How can I share the DVD on my iMac with a PC ?

    I have a tablet PC with no DVD and I would like to share the DVD on my iMac with the tablet PC. I have configured everything to "see" my PC from my iMac and my iMac to my PC, and I can see the shared folders, but there is no way of seeing the DVD in my iMac from the PC. I have turned on "DVD sharing" in my System Preferences. Does anybody has any clue about what I'm doing wrong ?
    Thanks for your help
    Joan

    Thanks very much for your suggestion, but in the summary at the top of the page you mention we can read:
    "You can use a DVD or CD via another computer's optical drive by enabling DVD or CD sharing. You might want to do this if your Apple computer did not come with an optical drive and if you don't have an external Apple USB SuperDrive."
    Thus, I understand that the procedure explained there is to share a DVD on a PC with a Mac, but I want to do the oposite : to share a Mac DVD with a PC....
    I have read somewhere that Mac DVDs are not intended to be shared with Windows machines, but I have got no "official" (that is, Apple endorsed) confirmation of this...

  • How can I change the dates on many photos with a fix time of say 20s?

    Before it was possible to change the date on many pictures scanned by adddind a fix increlental of time.
    How can I now change the dates on many pictures taht I have renumbered to keep the same incremental?

    The seconds:
    I just remembered - the time increment is set in Apple Script in seconds -  the variable  "minutes" is just a name for the value "60" and "hours" for "3600". Since "seconds" would have the value "1", there is no predefined constant "seconds".
    If you want an increment of 30 seconds, simply write
    set timeIncrement to 30
    For example
    on run {input, parameters}
      (* copyright leonieDF *)
              set timeIncrement to (1 * hours) + (2 * minutes) + 30
      (* select at least 2 images in Aperture *)
              tell application "Aperture"
      activate
                        set imageSel to (get selection)
                        if imageSel is {} then
                                  error "Please select an image."
                        else
                                  tell (item 1 of imageSel)
                                            set imageDate to value of EXIF tag "ImageDate"
      --set imageDate to get the value of EXIF tag "ImageDate"
                                  end tell
                                  repeat with i from 2 to count of imageSel
                                            set imageDate to imageDate + timeIncrement
      adjust image date imageDate of images {item i of imageSel}
                                  end repeat
                        end if
                        return imageSel
              end tell
    end run
