Help! I need to transfer everything!!

I need to transfer everything from a ibook G4 to my Pro. Both have the most recent updates and same version OS. I need to get my office programs, all of my itunes account, pics, and other stuff from the ibook to the pro. I only have one OS disk that i used on my ibook, other than that I don't have any more discs.

If you are missing the disc that came with your MacBook Pro, call AppleCare.
If you purchased the machine and it came with no discs, contact the and ask them to contact Applecare if they lost the discs, and give them to you regardless of whether they initially lost the discs. They aren't their's to keep.
Migrating from a G4 to MacBook Pro, is best done following these directions:

The Migration Assistant has been problematic for many migrating from PowerPC to Intel.

  • I need to transfer everything from my iPad 2 to a brand new iPad 2. I've done my backup to iTunes. Can someone please help me with the rest? I don't know if I have a sim card. Both iPads are 2nd gen., 64 GB, and have 3G. Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I have an iPad 2 that is defective. Apple has replaced it with a new one. First off, how do I know if I have a Sim card?  Secondly, I backed up my old iPad the other night (iPad plugged into iTunes).  Can somebody help me and explain how I set up my new iPad now? Then how do I register it with my new serial number, etc.?  Any and all help is appreciated.  I'm not mechanically inclined, so to speak, so if anyone can make it easy on me it would be greatly appreciated. By the way, my iPad 2 is a 64 GB with WiFi and 3G. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

    You need to restore your iPad from iTunes.
    Start iTunes.
    Plug in your iPad using the USB cable.
    Click on the iPad in the left hand column under "Devices".
    In the "Summary" tab, there are options to Back up, Update and Restore.
    Choose Restore, choose the backup and let it run.

    If your old iPad was capable of receiving data on the go, without wifi, then you have a SIM installed. Best to check anyway. You need either the tool supplied in the box, or the end of a paper clip to open the tray

  • HELP - I NEED TO TRANSFER ALL IPOD PICTURES TO WINDOWS

    PLEASE HELP! I NEED TO TRANSFER ALL MY PHOTOS THAT ARE ON MY IPOD TO A WINDOWS COMPUTER HARDDRIVE - PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO DO THAT!
    also, if anybody has personal contact with macmuse - can you please ask him about this - b/c he posted something about doing this with music files - i need to do it with pictures, and once my pics are on my ipod, there are on a different format - so how can i transfer them to a windows hard drive in a viewable format. THANKS!

    YamiPod extracts songs from your iPod to computer. Read the site if it takes all data, but I'm not exactly sure if it does the same to pictures.
    If that doesn't help, try searching the forums for your problem and come back here if this doesn't solve it

  • HT4864 Help? Need to transfer iWeb site to iCloud...

    Hello. Does anyone know how to transfer my website from iWeb to iCloud? The url is http://www.daveouanophotography.com . Unfortunately, I'm pretty computer illiterate and I'm afraid my entire site will be lost in June. Help! Thanks, Dave

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately you cannot transfer your website to iCloud, iCloud does not offer an alternative for publishing websites like MobileMe did. You will need to find yourself a third-party web host, to host your site.
    I wouldn't worry too much about losing your website, assuming you have made it in iWeb, it should still be there and you should still be able to publish it to another location once you have found one.

  • I need to transfer everything off my old computer to a new one.

  • Help. Stolen Old Computer, need to transfer to new computer!

    I cannot get my library from my old computer to my new computer. My old account says:
    "One computer is authorized to play music from Itunes, blah, blah."
    How do I change it. My old computer was stolen. It's gone. I need to transfer ALL the music I have on my Ipod into a library on my new computer. Some downloaded or bought from Itunes, some copied from my CD library.
    How do I do it? All the help crap starts with "access your old library from your old computer" Impossible for me.
    Everything is still on my Ipod. It seems I should be able to just transfer it. ESPECIALLY the stuff I BOUGHT from Itunes.

    Choose Authorize Computer from the Store menu in iTunes, provide the username and password associated with the iTunes Store account used to purchase that music, connect the iPod to your computer, and choose Transfer Purchases in the dialog box that appears. This method only works with content from the iTunes Store.

  • I need to transfer playlists from my old iphone into itunes so that I can then add them to my new iphone 6.  However, none of the playlists on my iphone appear when I connect to my macbook.  I have read other threads but have not found answer.  help!

    I am a group exercise instructor and rely heavily on my playlists.  My old phone is an iphone 4s and I just bought an Iphone 6.  I also have a macbook where I keep my itunes account, but I create all my playlists on my phone.  I need to transfer those playlists from my old iphone into itunes in my computer so that I can then add them to my new iphone 6.  However, none of the playlists on my iphone appear when I connect to my macbook.  I have read other threads where the suggestion was to attach the old phone to itunes, find the phone in itunes and click the little arrow to the left to show the playlists.  Then right click on the playlist and export it, saving it to the desktop, to then import it into itunes.  However, in my case, the playlists do not show up when the phone is connected to itunes.  I have clicked on the little arrow and all I get is "music", "purchased", etc., but none of my playlists.   I'm sure some years back I probably deleted something in my itunes library and now none of my playlists show.  Please help me.  I would hate to have to recreate all of my playlists.  Thank you!

    I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question.  Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing.  I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
    My playlists "ARE"  in my iphone 4s.  They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer. 
    When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes.  I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes:  Music, Movies, TV shows, books.  That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS"  but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone.  Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
    Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this.  I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer

  • I need to transfer music from another itunes library to my current. my last computer crashed and i do not want to lose all of the music stored on my nano. Please help!

    I need to transfer music from another itunes library. My last compter hard drive failed. I have several hours of songs and I don't want to lose these. Is there a way to transfer music from another libray to current? I have recovered the purchased music but would like to transfer other. I have a mini without a disc drive so it makes loading the same music difficult. Please help.

    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • I need to transfer information through firewire cable and could not remember how it works, please, help

    Please help, I need urgently to transfer information through firewire cable and I could not remember how it was that I do it. I've connected the computers and restarted one of them by pushing T on startup but it did not work.

    Shut down both Macs.  Connect them via FW cable.
    On the Mac you want to copy FROM.  Start up but make sure you are holding down the T key as soon as you press the power button.  And keep holding down the T key until the FireWire emblem appears on the screen - that's the indicator that the Mac is in Target Disk Mode (TDM).  Note: if you release the T key too soon the Mac won't go into Target Disk Mode.
    Start up the second Mac.  The first Mac will appear in the Finder as a disk.  You can use the Finder to copy whatever you want from the Mac that's in TDM.
    When you're done, shut down both Macs.  The Mac that's in Target Disk Mode can be shut down by holding down the power button until it turns off.

    Hello purpleroses68
    To download any photos that were on your My Photos Stream, then you will need to have Photo Streamed turned on within your computer. Keep in mind that My Photos Stream only holds the last 30 days of photos and those will be the only one that will download. Check out the articles below for more information for the process and general information about getting your photos downloaded.
