Copying Mails from one Mac to another Mac

Hi There,
I want to copy all my emails (pop account) from the harddisk of mini Mac OS X 10.4.6 to my PowerBook OS X 10.4.6. How to do? I tried it through .Mac but that doesn't work (when synchronising the source with .Mac the emails don't appear in Mail of .Mac.
Can anybody help?
Thanks

Tom & Stuart
yes, Mail-File-Import Mailboxes will do it for the email messages & folder structure ( but not the account settings, perhaps?)
Copy the Mail folder from A to (say) the desktop on B
then on B, use Mail-file-import mailboxes-mail for mac OSX & point the importer to the copy of A's Mail folder.
The messages/folders will indeed appear inside an 'imported' folder, but can be moved freely from that.
Tom -
you may find, as I suggested, that you can't use the account on B that was on A.
This can also be transferred, by locating the Folder named POP-username@ mail server inside the copy of A's Mail folder & copying it into B's Mail folder. Then in B's Mail-prefs-accounts add a new account & enter the details exactly as you did when you set up the account on A.
If the messages aren't visible in the 'new' account
Quit Mail & start again, & all should be well.
Make a backup of B's Mail folder and /home/library/preferences/com.apple.mail.plist before you do this, & Quit Mail before moving any files/folders using Finder.
I hope that'll do what you want..... & with the backups made first - you can recover easily in case of mistakes.

When exporting and then importing Apple Mail from one mac to another I get "Some messages could not be imported. Partially imported mailbox will be labeled IMPORT" . That mailbox does not appear.

When exporting and then importing Apple Mail from one mac to another I get "Some messages could not be imported. Partially imported mailbox will be labeled IMPORT" . That mailbox does not appear.
Any help would be welcome

This is a bug in Mail. The mailbox archiving function does not include attachments, which gives the error with the import. To workaround this you can create a mailbox in Mail and copy to it all emails you want to export. Then go in Finder to [user]/Library/Mail/Mailboxes en select the created mailbox. Copy this to the public directory of your other mac. Then start Mail on that other mac and import the mailbox from the public directory. Should work now.

How can i copy apps from one computer to another?

how can i copy apps from one computer to another?

You don't mention which operating system you have so it's difficult to provide an answer since the mac and Windows stores the files differently.
The other thing you can do is just re-download the apps from the iTunes Store. Just login to the iTunes Store on the other computer using the same Apple ID. On the right-hand side of the iTunes Store page you will see a 'Purchased' link. Clicking on that will take you to a page that will list your past purchases which you can re-download to the new computer.

How can I copy songs from one iPod to another?

I received a new iPod Classic (last generation) and I'm trying to transfer my songs from my old iPod Nano (also last generation).
My iTunes library is also split up between my two parent's houses and I only have half the songs on my Nano in this computer's library.
Is there a way to copy only the songs on the +iPod Nano+ (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?

*Is there a way to copy only the songs on the iPod Nano (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?*
You can't copy directly from one iPod to another, you have to copy the songs back to iTunes and update the new iPod from there. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

iPod2PC Windows Only
iGadget Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
SharePod Windows Only
iRepo Mac and Windows
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac and Windows
There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod

How do I copy text from one layer to another?

I have Googled this but not a single answer seems to work.
I am using Photoshop CS4 on OS X 10.6.7.
OK, so I have a layer that has some text in it. I would like to be able to simply copy that text from one layer to another, but this seems to be impossible as the Edit Paste menu item is grayed out after I have copied it in to the clipboard. I can paste it into the SAME layer, but not into another layer.
This is how I am trying to do this.
In the layer with the text, click on the "T" icon to the left.
Click on the text, in the layer that I want to copy.
I select the text (either by clicking and dragging or pressing Command-A).
Next I press Command-C.
Then I click on the layer In the Layer Panel) where I want to paste the text.
Pressing Command-V is impossible because the Edit-Paste menu option is grayed out!!!!
WHY??????
Perhaps more importantly, HOW do I copy text from one layer to another?

First thing you can simply right click on the Text Layer and choose Duplicate Layer. But that will create a new Text Lay
er identical to the one you have.
To answer your question in your case.... Create the Text Layer. Make a New Layer. Or have the layer you want to paste into visible.
Highlight the text layer in the Layer Palette and Ctrl+Click (Win) Cmd+Click(Mac) so that you see marching ants walking around your text.
Edit>Copy.
Then highlight your Layer you want to paste into and hit Edit>Paste or Cmd+V / Ctrl+V.

Is there a way to copy attributes from one composition to another?

I'm using After Effects 7.0
I'd like to copy the same Zoom attributes from one composition to 30 photographs.
In Final Cut, you can copy attributes from one clip to another. Or from one still photo to another.
Is there a way to do that in AE 7?
Thanx
Mike

EDIT: I see you edited your question, so I am editing my reply.
To copy the scale of a layer, open the main twirl of that layer and you'll see the Transform properties group. Open the twirl for that, and you'll see Anchor Point, Position, Scale, etc. Click on "Scale" and copy it (Edit > Copy, or Control+C on Windows/Command+C on Mac). Then select the other layers and just paste (Edit > Paste, or Control+C on Win/Command+V on Mac).
Such a broad question
Anytime you add a new item you imported to the timeline or composition panels, it becomes a new layer.
Anytime you duplicate an existing layer (Edit > Duplicate), you get a new layer.
Anytime you split a layer (Edit > Split) you get a new layer.
Anytime you copy a whole layer (target the name in the timeline panel) and paste it, you get a new layer.
You also create layers when you use the Shape tools, text tools, or create a new solid layer, etc.
This list could go on and on, so instead, I invite you to read the After Effects Help section on Creating layers specifically, and the whole chapter on Layers and properties, in general. If anything isn't clear for you, then let us know.

Is there a way to automatically move mail from one folder to another?

Is there a way to periodically, automatically, move mail from one folder to another?
For example, I'd like to move mail from one of my IMAP/Archives folders to my MyMac/Archive folder and I'd like this to happen without intervention.
Can this be done?

I'll try to be more specific.
When I'm done with an email, I archive it.
Because I have multiple email accounts, this results in emails in multiple Archive folders (one per account).
I'd like to have these automatically all moved into one (on my Mac).

you must be doing something wrong, the above tutorial is
correct and it is the
only way to copy paste frames in flash.
Make sure your layers are not locked. Locked layers cant be
copied.

Can Pages copy text from one page to another automatically?

Can Pages automatically copy text from one page to another?
For example recurring text in a document e.g. addressee details or a date (not today's date).
I want to type the topic title of one letter and have it automatically filled into the correct field in the next page which will be a letter to a different recipient.
The letter text will be different for each recipient so mail merge probably won't work.
Thanks
Andy

Thanks that worked great!!!(for the first line)
Now why wont it populate more than the one other text field?
F.Lic.Table1.Row1.agt_ssn_lic.rawValue = xfa.event.newText;
F.PAGE3.agt_ssn_1.rawValue = xfa.event.newText;

Copying value from one cursor to another

Hi,
I have a problem while copying values from one cursor to another cursor.
The code looks like below.
PROCEDURE XYZ
            TransactionResultSet OUT NOCOPY types.ref_cursor,
IS
            temp_cursor types.ref_cursor;
            wip_rec types.ref_cursor;
BEGIN
DECLARE
                CURSOR temp_cursor IS
            SELECT ...........
END;
BEGIN
    FOR wip_rec IN temp_cursor
    LOOP
    update tinsagr set something
    where {the condition}
        IF SQL%ROWCOUNT = 0 THEN
dbms_output.put_line('this is test ');
        Fetch wip_rec into TransactionResultSet;
     END IF;
   END LOOP;so basically i want to iterate the "temp_cursor" and depending on the values i get it from here i shall update a table. Actually i want to exclude few records from "temp_cursor" and add it/copy rest of the records to "TransactionResultSet"
That means say initially " temp_cursor" has 100 records and i updated 5 records in a table and same number of records should be excluded and rest should be added to the output cursor TransactionResultSet.
How do i achieve it?
while saving i am getting
(1): PLS-00456: item 'WIP_REC' is not a cursor.
Do any one has any idea what to do in such scenario?

Copying photos from one computer to another, with descriptions

After editing photo descriptions and locations in iPhoto, it is desireable to be able to copy them to iPhoto on another computer, with the associated photo descriptions and locations. In principle, this is possible by selecting all desired photos, then selecting File -> Export... In the Export dialog box, in the "File Export" tab, select "Include: Titles and keywords", and "Include: Location information". Copy the exported files to the other computer, and do a File -> Import to Library ...
In practice, this works fine with images taken by some cameras, and not with images from others. In my limited experience with a Fuji F80EXR and a Canon SX230HS, the above work flow works with the Fuji. But, with the Canon, while the exported files clearly have the description data embedded in them (as seen by GraphicConverter), it is not imported into iPhoto, nor is it visible in Preview's Inspector. The workaround I use is to run an exiftool command on the exported files.
Exiftool is a command line utility that can read and write meta data in image files:
http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/
I run the following command on the exported files to rewrite the IPTC Caption:
exiftool −overwrite_original_in_place -tagsfromfile %f.jpg -ext jpg -"IPTC:Caption-Abstract>IPTC:Caption-Abstract" *.jpg
Note that the above command overwrites the files that were exported from iPhoto. If you wish to leave the original files intact, with an "_original" appended to the file name, run:
exiftool -tagsfromfile %f.jpg -ext jpg -"IPTC:Caption-Abstract>IPTC:Caption-Abstract" *.jpg
I'm not sure why it is necessary to copy and rewrite that data. Perhaps there is something strange in the format of the meta data in the file as it comes from the camera, and the iPhoto export does not correct this strangeness. Copying and rewriting the data by exiftool seems to put things right.
The above works for me, but is somewhat unwieldy. Is there a better way to copy photos from one computer to another, if iPhoto refuses to import the description data that it was written to the exported files?

Thanks for the pointer. I did a test with 10 images, and confirmed the iPLM works, even with the problematic images from my Canon SX230HS.
The workflow is to use iPLM to create a new Library on the computer that has the photos you want to copy. Copy the photos to the new Library. Copy the new Library to the second computer using a method of your choice (file sharing, USB flash drive, etc). Copy the photos from the new Library to the existing iPhoto Library.
iPLM costs $20, whereas my original solution was free (but you need to invest the time to get exiftool installed and working). But, unlike exiftools, iPLM also copies over the Faces information, so it is likely a worthwhile investment if you use that feature.
