FCP Not Working after Migration to New Mac

OK this is really making me mad. i bought a new mac, and used the cool now migration assistant to bring all my stuff over. apps, docs, all that stuff. and when i try everything works great except Final Cut Express. I open it and it asks for the the serial number, i put in the one i have, and it won't let me click OK. any one know what to do? cause that really makes no sense to me, why can't i use my own apps. all i did was transfer it.

Just did a migration myself. I got a new MacBookPro and did a migration from my MacPro. FCE worked fine without a hitch. I had trouble with DVD Pro in FCP. I reinstalled FCP which fixed DVD Pro but broke Compressor. Looked on the archives on this forum and did the fix:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1060925&tstart=0
When I copied over compressor.app and the associated library files it worked.
The other strange thing was iMovie 08 on the new Mac was then hosed. I did the same trick, copied the .app and Library directory from my working MacPro and all worked fine.

Files not found after migration to new Mac

Hi,
On my old Mac, under Snow Leopard, my installation was complete and everything worked fine.
Then, when I bought a new Mac (with Mountain Lion installed) I had to use Migration Assistant to restore my Time Machine Backup, which included my Logic Pro installation.
Now when I try to use Logic Pro I often get these "Audio file ... not found!" messages (see example).
How can I fix this?
Many thanks!

Thanks for the link! Instead of un-installing and re-installing everything, I noticed that in GarageBand (which I normally don't use) there was an update/additional download available. After doing it I noticed that this had fixed nearly all missing-audio-file-problems in Logic Pro: when checking for missing instruments by creating a new instruments project everything was complete again on 2 of our 4 Macs (pre 2012 models) -- on the other 2 Macs (late 2012 models) only the following 3 ( ! ) files are missing:
/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/Sampler/Sampler Files/...
.../Seventies Kit/DC Tit Hat 08.aif
      (of EXS24 Instrument "Seventies Kit.exs")
.../Liverpool Bass/IL Btl Bass bomb 08.aif
      (of EXS24 Instrument "Liverpool Bass.exs")
.../Steinway Grand Piano/Steinway Pedal V1/Stw ped v1 024.AIF
      (of EXS24 Instrument "Steinway Piano.exs")
So we copied the 3 missing files into the same directories on the 2 newer Macs, but it seems Logic doesn't "see" them and therefore still says that they are missing:
How can I help Logic to find these files?

License not working after migrating to new MacBook Pro

I migrated recently to a new MacBook Pro. Aperture is finding it hard to recognize my license from earlier MacBook Pro
Aperture license shows blank. Asks for license. Does not accept my Aperture 2 or 3 license.
Do I have to ?
* Backup my data
* Uninstall Aperture 3 that was migrated
* Install Aperture 2 again
* Put license
* Apply Aperture 3 upgrade again
* Open photo libraries to check compatibility
Any recommended way of handling the license recognition with least hassle?
Last working setup
* MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.1 GHz
* Snow Leopard 10.6.4
* Aperture 2
* Aperture 3 upgrade applied to Aperture 2
Now
* MacBook Pro i5 2.4GHz
* Snow Leopard 10.6.4
* Aperture 3 (Migrated from MBP2.1Ghz)
Any help would be appreciated.

Migrating a Pro application will not work, you need to delete the Aperture application, only the ap, from your MBP, and do an install from the supplied disc or download, this should then take you serial number.

I keep reading people state this, but I've migrated a bunch of times since first getting Aperture 1 (or whatever Apple called it). I just did a migration from a 15" MBP (Early 2009) to a brand spanking new 17" MBP i7. Aperture 2 is working perfectly. I'm not bragging or anything, because if something is going to go wrong, it will go wrong with me. Yet, I haven't had any issues with any migration and "Pro apps" including moving iMacs to iMacs, iMacs to MBP, MBP to iMacs, etc etc.
Now I'm paranoid that Aperture is going to blow up on me next week!

Bridge no longer working after Migration to new Mac 10.6.4

Howdy. New computer. Used Migration Assistant to load user etc from old hard drive. Photoshop works fine after re-activation. CS3 Bridge 2.1.1.9 won't even start. "Application not responding." Have re-installed from disk. Ideas?
Thanks
Steve

Weird. I just left it alone for about half an hour and it suddenly burst into life. Seems to work properly now.

Unable to open indesign after migration to new mac all other programs open and work. Why? Running Yosemite 10.10.1 Indesign CS5

The keyword is "migration." Migrating or copying files for Adobe applications usually does not work. Not all of the necessary subsidiary files are copied to the right location.
You'll need to first clean up the mess with this tool:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Then download an installer from here:

After migrating a new Mac Book Pro from Time Capsule, I noticed that I lost a group of Favorites on the older iMac. The puzzling thing is that the Favorites are on my iPhone--not the old iMac or the new Mac Book Pro. How do I get the Favorites back?

If you are syncing using iCloud, try going to System Preferences/iCloud (computers) and checking Safari. If it is checked, try deselecting it, wait 10-15 seconds, and then check it again.

"Find Form" calendar is not working after migration

Hi,
We have migrated from Oracle 9i to 10g.we have one form ''FormA" and "find form" for that FormA.Calendar functionality is present in both FormA and "Find FormA".if we try to use calendar functionality in "Find formA",its giving error like FRM-40104 - No such block calendar,FRM-40105(unable to resolve reference to item claendar.cell1.........),FRM-41045 (cannot find item - invalid id).Actually this scenario is not working after migrating the FORMS application to 'OAS10.1.2' from 'OAS904' .
In 'OAS904' ,The calendar item is present in the 'FormA' form, the 'calendar.show' hides the "Find FormA" and appears in the FOrmA and uses FormA's calendar item and after selecting the date,the date s applied to the "Find FormA"
But after migration, the "Find FormA" is not hiding, so its not able to retrieve the calendar properties.Because the calendar is present in "FormA".

After migrating to new Mac iCal pop-up screen is mostly off screen ...

After migrating to new Mac iCal pop-up screen is mostly off screen and I can't seem to find a way to get it so that it pops up in the middle of the screen or anywhere else where I can see the whole thing.

This is a known bug which began to occur with the 10.4.8 update. I suggest you file a bug report with Apple. Its quite annoying and hopefully, the more people who contact Apple about it, the more importance they will give to fixing the problem.

Email account and Internet service not working after migration onto a new (upgraded 3rd party) 2012 MBP. Hardware or software issue.

I just purchased a refurb Mac Book Pro from the Apple on-line store. When I received the machine (serial number) I purchased 3rd party (OWC) parts. All of these were installed by the authorized, local Apple repair store I have had excellant results with past issues with my 2006 MBP. The parts installed are: 16 meg ram, 240 SSD and a 1 T installed replacing the optical drive.
Feeling ready now, I had the Apple store do the migration from my 2006 MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.8) over to the 2012.
When trying to get the new machine into the production flow, I cannot get email to work. It will launch but I cannot access accounts.
During the One to One, then moved over to the Genius Bar appointment, they reentered the account(s) data. Nothing.
Also at this time they noticed that the Internet connection was not working.
A new internet account was set up and it worked. They (Genius) launched email and the Internet connection crashed. This was repeated about 5 times.
The computer was left with Apple to reinstall the OS (10.8) - their best suggestion as a fix and I have now had a call to say that the install did not correct the problem. Now they are questioning the install of the 3rd party parts as the possible problem.
I'm to go back into the Apple store to discuss the next steps.
I would really, really appreciate anyones thoughts / suggestions on this problem. Is it software or hardware? Should I re-install the original ram and 500 m hard drive to start over with the migration? I'll be honest here and state - I'm not a technician in computers or this side of technology. That is why I have reliable parties do the install and trouble shoot. Not a comfortable feeling being at their mercy.
Advanced thanks to all who believe they have answers.

Back from the Apple store with my 2012 MacBook Pro.
After one re-install of the OS - no better - a clean install was performed - purging all of the data that they had migrated over from my 2006 MBP last week.
The belief is, that the migrated data from my 2006 MBP was too great of a leap for the new 10.8. My (a lot) software was too dated and there in was a "blip" of some sort in some / one of the programs.
So - all of the OWC parts and pieces that I had installed are not the issue - as they all show up on the About this Mac - and other things are functional. Yeah.
I now have my 2012 back (with upgrades) in the original form (OS and programs) and I will start a one by one migration of programs that I do need and use. Being cautious not to make one large transfer.... weeding out programs that will no longer be needed or will work on the OS 10.8. I will manually set up the email accounts one by one.
Fingers crossed.

Windows on Parallel, on new MacbookPro not working after migration assistant

After I did migration assistant from my old macbook pro to my new macbook pro and formatted the old laptop, when I opened the Parallel I had on my laptop it told me that Windows in no longer a genuine software although I've been working with it on my previous macbook pro and it is a genuine windows..What can I do?
I tried to retype my licence to reactivate windows but it wouldn't work!!
PLease help..

Did you, by any chance, make a backup of your old MBP on which there is still a copy of the Windows virtual machine? If so, try copying that over to the new MBP to replace the VM giving you trouble.
Windows periodically checks the hardware configuration it's running on and if too many factors have changed, it puts up the complaint you're seeing. That may have been aggravated by how Migration Assistant transferred the VM file. I use VMware Fusion rather than Parallels and when a VM is moved to a new Mac, Fusion senses that and asks if the VM was moved or copied; if you answer copied, Fusion assigns a new MAC address to avoid network conflicts if both instances of the VM are running at the same time. But the new MAC address also triggers Windows to complain, as yours has. Does Parallels ask that question too, or does it, perhaps, just assume it's been copied? A more complete discussion of what you're running up against can be found here.

User ID Not Recognized in App Store after Migrating to new Mac

I migrated to a new Mac using Migration Assistant being careful to create an identical user account on the new Mac. All went fine. When it came time to update apps through MAS, some apps updated and some would not (e.g. Pixelmator) and MAS tells me "You have updates available for other accounts" and asks me to log out and sign in as another user – but the user name is exactly the same as my current user name. There is definitely only one user account on the Mac, so what is going on?

Cracked it – thanks. The message that MAS displays is not clear and looks like it's referring to User Name. Also MAS does not have a Preferences dialog where you would normally enter Account/Apple ID details, but it's under the Store menu item – confusing.

HI,
Try repairing disk permissions. Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

Mails are not displayed after migration to new iMac

Hello!
Today I migrated the contents of my old office iMac (G4, MacOS 10.4.11) to my new one (new 20'', MacOS 10.5) via FireWire.
Unfortunately my mails are not displayed on my new Mac:
I can see all my mailboxes on the left side, but the window, that should show the mails themselves is empty. I already took a look into the /library/mail folder and all my mails seem to be there.
They are just not displayed.
I use mail on that Mac with only one POP account.
What could cause this behaviour?
Thank you very much in advance!
Thomas

I figured out niw, how to solve the problem:
After the migration go to the Userdirectory-> Library -> Mail and delete the files:
MessageRules.plist
MessageRules.plist.backup
MessageSorting.plist
MessageSorting.plist.backup
Then Mail works properly.
(The only thing ist, that all filer rules are gone.)

Application is not working after migrated to 11.1.2.4

Hi expterts,
I developed an adf application on JDeveloper 11.1.1.6. It works without problem on 11.1.1.6.
Briefly uses following technologies: ADF faces, facelets and taskflows, EJB, hibernate...
When i wanted to go on develop with 11.1.2.4, I copied my App root folder to another folder. And chosed .jws application file from 11.1.2.4 version. Then IDE wants me to confirm about migration, then i accepted.
I develop a supplierList structure for feeding the select one choice components' selectItems. These provide load the db objects on the first calling and manages by my ListManager class.
These supplier classes initialize on the MBean init method. MBean init method calls on taskflow initializer. The project (VCUtil) that includes Supplier classes is on my main ViewController project as ADFLibrary.
But after migration when i deploy the application on my Integrated weblogic Server. oops does'nt seen my jspx screens properly on first attempt which includes supplier classes. But when i refresh the screen it can be loaded properly.
The log contains only that line:
<20-Sep-2013 10:33:31 o'clock EEST> <Notice> <Stdout> <BEA-000000> <10:33:31,189 DEBUG [PerformanceMonitor_lsr6sq_Impl] Method public java.util.Collection com.acme.model.domain.ad.sessionbean.ADManagerBean.findCurrencies() took 167 (ms)>
<20-Sep-2013 10:33:31 o'clock EEST> <Info> <ServletContext-/RestAutomation> <BEA-000000> <JspServlet error: Servlet unable to dispatch to the following requested page: The following exception occurred:oracle.adf.controller.activity.ActivityLogicException: ADFC-06015: An exception occured when invoking a task flow initializer.>
My first supplier class is CurrencySupplier, and i can see acc.to the log it works, the second one is DepartmentSupplier class. So i expect log stdout about findDepartments() method too. But nothing, i guess when executing on CurrencySupplier there might be a wrong, that's why can not go on. But when i refresh the page at that time executes the DepartmentSupplier class. If i refresh page for Supplier class count times then page loads.
    public void init()
        try
            if (ObjectUtil.isNull(currencySupplier = (CurrencySupplier)ListManager.getInstance().getSupplier("currencies")))
                currencySupplier = new CurrencySupplier();
            if (ObjectUtil.isNull(departmentSupplier = (DepartmentSupplier)ListManager.getInstance().getSupplier("departments")))
                departmentSupplier = new DepartmentSupplier(false);
            if (ObjectUtil.isNull(countrySupplier = (CountrySupplier)ListManager.getInstance().getSupplier("countries")))
                countrySupplier = new CountrySupplier();
            if (ObjectUtil.isNull(cityForCountrySupplier = (CityForCountrySupplier)ListManager.getInstance().getSupplier("citiesforcountry")))
                cityForCountrySupplier = new CityForCountrySupplier(false, null);
            else
                cityForCountrySupplier.refreshList(null);
            if (ObjectUtil.isNull(districtForCitySupplier = (DistrictForCitySupplier)ListManager.getInstance().getSupplier("districtsforcountry")))
                districtForCitySupplier = new DistrictForCitySupplier(false, null);
            else
                districtForCitySupplier.refreshList(null);
public class CurrencySupplier extends SimpleListSupplier
    public CurrencySupplier(boolean blankItemApplied)
        super(blankItemApplied);
    public CurrencySupplier()
        super();
    @Override
    public void loadList()
        try
            UtilBean utilBean = new UtilBean();
            clearList();
            list.addAll(utilBean.findCurrencies());
            Collections.sort(list);
            itemList.addAll(ConversionUtil.getConvertedToSelectItemList(list, isBlankItemApplied()));
        catch (Exception exc)
            exc.printStackTrace();
    public String getListName()
        return "currencies";
I hope that i could explain the problem
Thx, bgrds

PPR does not work after migrating from ADF 11.1.1.0.2 to 11.1.1.1.1

Hi, I'm able to programmatically refresh my UI components in ADF 11.1.1.0.2. After migrating my application to ADF 11.1.1.1.0 using the latest Jdev, I noticed that all the programmatically PPR no longer work. I'm using ADF Faces, managed beans and EJB. Data Control is not used.
In addition, I noticed in Section 7:Rerendering Partial Page Content of the latest Web User Interface Developer's Guide(B31973-03), a new paragraph was added, stating that the clientComponent attribute of the target component should be set to "true" to enable PPR programmatically. An earlier version of the developer guide(B31973-01) does not have this paragraph.
Given the huge amount of work required in going back to update the code, is there a way for me to set ADF 11gR1 to restore to the earlier behaviour in 11.1.1.0.2 by setting some parameter somwhere (e.g. in the web.xml)?

No there is no such switch. If you don't want to go through your code (which should be possible by find in files with a regular expression), you have to switch back to 11.1.1.0.2.
This would not be an option to me because of the buds fixed in 11.1.1.1.0.
Think aoubt the next version which is scheduled later this year. There you will have the same problem. If you are not fixing the code you have to stay on 11.1.1.0.2 forever.
