  • Slow file transfer from pc to mac

    I've got two windows xp home pcs and two macs (a mac mini and an ibook). The windows PCs are connected to the wired network and both macs are wireless.
    When I try to initiate a file transfer on either pc to either mac, the file transfer is really slow (slower than I think it should be). It's very annoying.
    Does anyone have any idea what causes this and how to fix it? Thanks.

    I've got some more information: when Windows NT initiates a file transfer to the mac using windows file sharing, the transfer speed is fast. It's XP that has the problem. Is this a windows XP problem or a Mac OS X problem? Last time I checked, the macs were both able to communicate with each other just fine.
    Ok, here's the transfer speeds approx: a 100mb file is normally quickly transferred in about a minute. When the windows xp machine tries to send to the mac, the transfer will take many times longer to complete.
    Can anyone help with this problem? Anyone at all? Please? I'm annoyed about this issue.
    So, what's the fix? Please. Thanks.

  • File transfer from PC to MAC

    I am planning on switching to a MAC from windows. I was going to use an external hard drive to move my files from my pc but noted that the external must be formatted for MAC use. How can accomplish file transfer without difficulty?

    Transferring via a Windows formatted hard drive is a good method.  You might also take a look at the Windows Migration Assistant.

  • Frequent File Transfer from PC to Mac

    I have a recurring dilemma and am soliciting your thoughts and ideas.  At work, I have a PC desktop computer connected to the enterprise network.  In order to avoid printing 50+ pages of documents each day, I purchased a MacBook Air to bring to meetings and on business trips.  Throughout the day, I receive documents (usually via work email to my PC) and would like to have them with me on the MacBook Air in meetings.  The documents are typically PDFs, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Project files.  There are some unique limitations which make this very difficult:
    1)  I cannot use USB devices on my work PC
    2)  I cannot connect flash storage devices to my work PC
    3)  My MacBook Air cannot connect to the work network, and there is no WiFi in the building
    4)  If I have to, I can purchase a USB superdrive for the MacBook Air to read/write DVDs, but I would like to avoid the extra purchase
    5)  Due to network restrictions at work, I cannot access online file storage solutions such as DropBox, Amazon Cloud, iCloud, Sugarsync, Box, etc.
    6)  The desktop PC does not have bluetooth
    7)  The work network firewalls strip attachments from all emails leaving the enterprise, which I cannot access from my MacBook Air even if it were connected to the internet, so emailing documents is not an option
    8)  As the files are typically rather small (less than 10 MB) and frequent, I do not want to burn a CD-R each time.  Read/Write is a must.
    I'm stumped!  /:
    Thoughts?  Ideas?
    Thanks!

    You will probably have to install Windows 7 on your Mac, via BootCamp so that you can access the intranet using a thunderbolt to ethernet adapter.

  • Elements 11: switched from Windows to Mac   need help w/ serial

    My friend upgraded, and no longer uses her Elements 11. She wants to give it to me. However she uses Windows, and I have a Mac. After I downloaded the program and it prompted me to enter the Serial Number, it says "This serial number is not valid for this product" - after some google research I believe it is because the serial number for Windows isn't compatible for Mac.
    My question is, is it possible to find the serial number on this product that's compatible for Mac (like, do these products come with two different serial numbers; one for Windows and one for Macs)? Or is it just not going to work on a Mac at all? Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

    mrjayd, I switched from a PC to a G5 about 6 weeks ago & had the same problem. I used iPodRip which you can find at versiontracker.com. It worked like a charm, recovered playlists, playcounts, everything. Good Luck!

  • Re-formating my ipod from windows to mac need help

    All you have to do is restore your ipod in itunes 7 on the mac and that automatically reformats the ipod for a mac. Same vice versa as well.

  • Quality of imported movies is very poor: SWITCHER FROM PC TO MAC NEEDS HELP

    I find the quality of the video images imported from my JVC gz-mg575e to be very poor. If I play my movies directly of camera on TV I have a crystal clear image. After importing the movie in IMovie 08 the quality gets worse.
    I already selected the ultrafine mode for the camera.
    Is there something wrong with my setting of iMovie?
    Or is it because I use iMovie08 instead of Final Cut Pro?

    This is a PAL camcorder I think. Are you are selecting PAL as your setting when you import into iMovie?

  • New iPad 3 will not charge from a mac. need help on that

    my new ipad 3 will not charge from a mac. need help why if any one knows? thk

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html
    Also, if you have a 3rd generation iPad, look at Apple: iPad Battery Nothing to Get Charged Up About

  • File transfer from one system to another system

    How can I use ODI to do file transfer from one system to another system ?
    Do I need to create Models or I have to simply use Jython procedure/script to do the same ? Kindly help. I have done DB to DB using Knowledge Modules. But I am not able to understand this piece.
    Kindly help.

    If you are asking about file transfer use ODI FTP tool to do it. If you are asking about file transformation..
    You can not do file transformation directly in ODI like we do in any other ETL tool like data stage or Ab Initio.. File transformation in ODI can be done using staging database in an interface(i.e ELT way).
    Create source and target data stores for the file to be transformed. Create an interface using File to SQL LKM to load the file into staging database and then use SQL to File Integration knowledge module.
    Thanks,

  • Getting error in file transfer from one system to another system

    Hi All
    One of my client (User) wants to transfer his file from  SAP R/3 System SAP XI system. He is using a customize t-code ZFIR0325 (Trial balance report transfer to Hyperian System). When user execute the  program he is getting error "File Transfer Failed due to Network chk with Admin"
    I checked with Network team but they said it is okay from their side. We also check for authorization but there is no issue regarding authorization.
    Name of File Path of Aplication Server, XI destinaion and XI directory entered by user is correct.
    We also put authorization trace in XI System to RFC User (In file transfer from one system to another system this RFC User is geeing Used) but no authorization issue was found.
    Please help me to resolve this problem. I any detail require I will provide the same.

    Firstly, no one in the community can answer on how a custom transcation code and a program associated with it behaves.
    If there are no authorization issues in the system, you have to look at the exact error message. Look if your XI system is allowed to receive files from the SAP system.
    Unfortunately, you should do some more home work before putting your question here. If everything is fine and configured correctly, then the issue might be with the program.

    hi friends i have mac ibook g4 i know its a really old model but its perfectly fine it has installed mac os x 10.5.8 ok whenever i copy and paste anything it says no free space weather i copy from folder to desktop or from usb to mac plz help plz

    There is no download for 10.4.x or 10.5.x, there is a very slim chance you can get 10.5 by calling Apple, but usually you can only get it on eBay & such.
    Tiger Requirements...
    To use Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, your Macintosh needs:
        * A PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor
        * Built-in FireWire
        * At least 256 MB of RAM (I recommend 1GB minimum)
        * DVD drive (DVD-ROM), Combo (CD-RW/DVD-ROM) or SuperDrive (DVD-R) for installation
        * At least 3 GB of free disk space; 4 GB if you install the XCode 2 Developer Tools  (I recommend 20GB minimum)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1514
    http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=mac+os+x+tiger+retail+10.4
    See Tom's, (Texas Mac Man), great info on where/how to find/get Tiger...

    Or Ali Brown's great info on where/how to find/get Tiger...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10381710#10381710
    Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
        *  Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
    minimum system requirements
        * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    Classic/OS9 Apps no longer supported.
    May be available from Apple again...

    Trouble is Apple no longer sells it, check eBay & such for the Retail version, not the Gray Discs...

  • Hello friends recently shifted from windows to mac need some suggestion on which software to go ahead with for editing, excel,power point presentation

    Hello friends recently shifted from windows to mac need some suggestion on which software to go ahead with for creating word editing, excel,power point presentation.

    Only Microsoft's Office for Mac 2011 14.4.8 will work on your Windows Office files in their native document format. Anything else, and particularly Apple's Pages, Numbers, and Keynote will perform translation on open, and export. This can, and will, introduce differences to your original documents, especially when sharing with others in the Windows Office 2010/2013 applications.
    Here is my short list.
    Office for Mac 2011 v14.4.8
    LibreOffice (latest)
    The current iterations of Apple's Pages, Numbers, and Keynote are not what I would term business/professional grade applications. Apple updates them infrequently, ignores user friendly features, omits others, and has introduced default backwards incompatibility between Yosemite and prior OS X releases of these applications. Read the reviews in the OS X App Store. Even for free with a recent Mac purchase, these products will transform your mood.
    The free LibreOffice is aggressively developed and designed as an MS Office replacement suite. There are occasions where it can open documents that Office for Mac, and Apple's products ignore. Extensive PDF manuals for the individual applications. Unlike Word, you can have two-up page viewing with a button click, or edit multi-page PDF. There is a forms designer. It can open nearly any document including MS Publisher and Visio documents from the Windows space. I use it.
    MS Office 2015 Preview for Yosemite is available, but as its title would suggest, it is not done yet, and some features are missing. I created a single-page Word document with a DRAFT watermark. Only LibreOffice v4.4.1 was able to open this document and preserve the watermark.
