HELP! Transferring bookmarks between computers

I just bought a new PowerMac and I need to transfer my Safari bookmarks from my Malibu Barbie G5. How do I do it when I've got the two connected?
Thanks!

Move the file Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist from your home folder on the old computer to the same location on the new one.

Problem Transferring items between computers

Hi, I followed the instructions under Transferring items between computers, and the pc I tranferred to gives me an error message stating: "Document is not licensed for this device type." Both devices are HP with WIndows 7. The ebook opens just fine on one HP, but not on the second HP. How can I get it to open successfully on both computers? Thank you.

Ken,
If you need to regularly transfer data then I'd set up an Ethernet connection to file share and then transfer (modern Macs have at least 100BaseT Ethernet (which is around 12MBps max).
If it's a irregular transfer you don't do often then using Firewire Target Disk Mode (theoretical 50MBps max) is probably easiest:
Connect the two Macs with a 6pin-to-6pin Firewire cable.
Restart the donor Mac which has the files on it and hold down the T key.
The hard disk of the donor Mac will appear on the second Mac.
Transfer your files.
Drag the hard disk of the donor Mac to the Trash to unmount it.
Power down the donor Mac using the power button.
Other options include networking over Firewire (again about 50Mbps but some overheads for the protocols involved) or Airport (original approx 1MBps max, Extreme approx 6MBps max).

Help Transfering Calls between Applications

Greetings,
We need to configure a physician hotline that allows a Call Consult Transfer to fire off at the same time the introduction prompt is being played to the caller. (The physicians we are calling do not use the desktop agent, so we can't rely on any queues) We are doing this to remove any delays in reaching a physician. The approach I have been trying is to trigger another application and transfer the call contact information so it can start calling while the first application is playing the initial greeting.
Currently I'm struggling finding any examples on how to transfer calls from one application to another. (I've seen sever methods suggested, but no one has laid out how this can be done.) Here is what I've tried so far:
1.     Accept Contact
2.     Set session variable 'MySession' to use Get Contact Info
3.     Set Session Info to 'MySession'
4.     Trigger Application in syncronous mode
5.     Script 1 plays intro prompt; Script 2 sets local session 'MySession' using Get Session of 'MySession'
6.     Script 2 initializes contact variable 'MyContact' with Set Contact Info using 'MySession'
7.     Script 2 places Call Consult Transfer with 'MyContact'
On step 6 I am receiveing a "SetContactInfoStep(HandledSessionStep): contact object, MyContact, is NULL"
I appologize for asking a question that might have been answered before, but I've been searching for over a week and haven't found anything.

I have been on these forums for about five years and I have never seen this asked before. That's good and bad. Good because you are not asking a question that gets asked and answered all the time, and bad because there's no knowledge on how this can be accomplished.
First off, you will not achieve what you are after with they way you are doing it. UCCX cannot bridge two separate Contacts together like you are thinking.
You would either need to call the customer back with the Dr on the line, or call the Dr back with the customer on the line. The initial call in either case can be thought of as a notification that a call is about to be connected with a live person on the line.
So basically, you would still call outbound to your Dr with a place call step, and you would play a message like:
"There is a call for you...blah blah blah...press 1 to accept it."
If they press 1, you would hang up on them, and then immediately perform a transfer out to them. This results in two calls, but the first call is a setup, or feeler call, which greatly increases the success of the actual transfer. And that would be calling the Dr back with a live customer.
If however, you wanted to secure the Dr on the line with a single call (place call step), and transfer to the customer, you would have to confirm a callback number with the customer first, and then hang up on them, followed by transferring the contact from the place call step to the the customer's call back number.
UCCX is powerful and flexible but one area it lacks in is call control. CVP would be better at this, as it actually has a SIP subsystem to send REINVITES and what not.
Good luck with this, and do let us know how it works out.
EDIT: Just had a thought, you could just put the caller on hold, and your hold message could have your greeting looping in it. Then while they remain on hold, you are performing your Call Consult Transfer steps in the "background."

Question on Transfering Music Between Computers

I have read the article on using the iPod as a harddrive and transferring to a new computer...but there's still a couple things I'm not clear about.
1. If I wanted to tranfer my iTunes library to a new computer, I would first transfer all the music to my iPod, then, in the new computer, make sure Syncing is off, and then simply transfer purchases from iPod? I got confused in the article where it reads: "If you've erased the iTunes library on your computer, there's no way to use the Finder or My Computer to copy the media from your iPod to reconstitute the library on your computer." Is this simply saying the only way to restore the library is to use the "transfer purchases from iPod" option or re-burn and buy all my music?
2. If I purchase a song from another computer and load it to my iPod, will the song be erased when I hook my iPod to my home computer if it syncs before I use the "Transfer purchases from iPod" option?
Matt

can anyone help here?

Sharing/transferring music between computers

I am trying to transfer/share my "podcasts" folder, "purchased" folder, and a personal folder from this computer, my father's laptop, to our home computer, a desktop computer. My dad also uses iTunes on this laptop, so we each have a separate folder within iTunes for our playlists, thus my only transferring certain playlists. I followed each step precisely as shown in the article about this on the website, but it did not work, as many times as I checked to make sure I was doing everything right. When I go to the home desktop computer and check the Look for Shared Music box in the Preferences section, then click OK, nothing ever comes into the source list, where the folders from this laptop are supposed to be. Please help! The home computer is new, and the old one was not capable of having iTunes, so all I am trying to do is transfer my iTunes folders and the music contained in them from this laptop to that computer. Any suggestions? Please?!

Transferring info between computers

my old macbook may have finally died. The battery is bulging and i think its overheated. But it will turn on - with a power cord. I need to transfer files and programmes from that computer to a new macbook PRO. I cant operate the mouse or cursor on the old computer but the hard drive seems intact.
can i start up new computer so that i can see the screen and obtain info from the old one and then copy it across before the old one completelt gives out.
Cheers

With the old computer turned off, connect the computers to eachother using an ethernet cable. Then turn on the old computer while holding down the "T" key, and keep holding the "T" key until it starts up. This will start it in Target Disk Mode. The old hard drive will (should) mount to the new computer's desktop. Then transfer away!
You can also use a Firwire or Thunderbolt cable
I hope this helps!

Business Catalyst Help | Transferring Sites between Partners

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner-portal/transferring-sites-partners.html

It isn't clear to me how to move a site from a Free Partner Portal to another Free Partner Portal.
I set up a website for my parents' small business under my own Free Partner Portal. My father purchased a creative cloud subscription, which comes with 5 free BC sites, and he wants to take advantage of this benefit.
Do the clearly-explained steps on this page apply?
Do I instead have to delete the site and instruct him on using muse to recreate the site under his Free Partner Portal account?
thanks!

Transferring Music Between Computers With Ipod (Very Unique Situation)

My Ipod has about 300+ songs on it that aren't on my old desktop (Windows)and I would like to know if I can get those 300 songs off the Ipod and onto my new MacBook Pro. I looked at the tutorial for how to do this and I saw two problems I would need to address. The first is the guide says something about not being able to move the files from a PC to a Mac and the second is it talks about updating the files on the ipod which I can't do since the files I want to find aren't on there. Can I move these files without updating the Ipod? Oh and by the way I moved all the other files over to the MacBook.

There's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
If you prefer something more automated there are also a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. I use Senuti but check the others out and choose whichever you are happy with.
Senuti Mac Only
iPodRip Mac Only
PodWorks Mac Only
iPod.iTunes Mac Only
PodView Mac Only
iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
There is also a new function in iTunes 7 under File, "Transfer Purchases from iPod" which transfers iTMS purchases. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting to your MacBook and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press *No* (or "Cancel" if you are using iTunes 7). Pressing "Yes" (or Erase and Sync in iTunes 7) will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod will appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. In iTunes 7 Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting: Managing content manually on iPod
Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again.

Help moving sites between computers

I need help please. I am helping a primary (elementary) school build and update their web site. They are using iWeb but not .Mac. These young children Publish To A Folder and I get the folder to upload to the server that hosts their site. I would like to be able to tidy up some of their formatting etc before uploading, but iWeb on my machine doesn't see their files even when I put them in my Sites folder. Is this something to do with the Domain file in the Library folder? Can someone please give me a strategy for adding to their files on my computer, uploading them and then reloading the altered files back to their computer for further work??

Hi greysenior,
Welcome to the forums.
Yes, it has everything to do with the Domain.sites file, stored in this location on the hard drive.
Allow them to continue to publish to a folder, as this will give the kids a sense of finality with their work in the iWeb application. But when you go to collect the Site folder/index.html file, also make a copy of the Domain.sites file and move it to the desktop of your machine. (A flash drive is a good choice for this task). Then, just double-click the Domain.sites file on the desktop. iWeb will launch that Domain, and you will have all of the work they have done in the application on your machine for editing/tweaking.
Then, you can publish to a folder and upload the files to the server of your choice.

Transferring purchases between computers & different accounts

I have many songs currently on my shuffle of which were downloaded from from a computer and an account that I no longer have access to. I have a new computer and have esablished a new account and purchased new songs. My computer will access the current library on my ipod but will not allow me to make any changes to it. I've purchased songs on my new computer/account and it will not allow me to transfer them to my shuffle. Essentially how do i fix this so I can edit my ipod and add new songs to it. The account that i originally downloaded the songs from is now inactive.

Bummer, now you are forever going to have to look after 2 itunes accounts.
You need to get into that old account. See if the apple iforgot page helps.
You need to authorize this new PC for both itunes store accounts.

Transferring work between computers

My old laptop that had Photoshop elements (version 8) died and I re-installed the software on my new laptop.
How do I bring all the work I did on my old laptop onto my new laptop (photo organization, ratings, slideshows)?
I can't use the old laptop, but I have the old hard drive connected to my new laptop as an external drive. So I have access to all the files.
I talked with Adobe help who says there is no way to do this, but I can't really believe it. This information must be stored in some files on the old hard drive.
Since I didn't really understanding the organizer and catalogs, I did not create a catalog backup within the software.
Ideas I have had:
1. find the files that store the organziational data and copy to right places on the new computer
2. Figure a way to install version 8 on the new computer so that it points to the external drive. Just installing may overwrite all the data though, so I would want to know how to back up the files with the data first.
Anybody know how to do this?
Thanks!

Excellent! Yes this works.
2 more questions
1. Organizer is viewing and referring to the external drive (d:) which makes sense now that I think about it. Is there a way to get globally view on the c drive (local drive)? What I mean here, is that all the pictures on the c and d drives are exactly the same and organized exactly the same. So if I could globally replace the path from d:\dir1\dir2\pict1 to c:\dir1\dir2\pict1 (for example), the ratings references, etc. should all work. Seems like this is possible if PSE catalogs the picts by directory and name but not if it uses an internal ID.
If this helps in your answer, I was reading that the catalog.pse8db is a SQLite database? I do know SQL and programming though not Adobe and how to use SQLite. If I already have the tools and it is not too complicated, I bet I could figure out how to manipulate this. Reason I mention this is I could imagine the solution being a simple global change in a database.
2. Is the way to avoid this in the future to do a catalog backup to a separate directory?
Thanks very much for your help!
From version 6 which adopted the sqlite database, the drive is managed in a separate table from the full path one. Every time a new drive is recognized by Windows, a new record is created in this table. The unique id is assigned by the database and the serial number, drive letter and description are stored as separate fields in the records of that table. The media table includes separate fields for the full path and the drive. In your case, every drive internal id is present and correct, but the description is false for the letter drive. When the organizer tries to recombine the letter with the full path and does not find, it uses the drive serial number... at least that's how I see it. So in your case, you would have to correct only a single record in the drive table to have a clean database. Generally a change like yours is not seen by the user if you stay with the same PSE version but it may hinder a conversion. Of course you can look at the database structure and make changes with sqlite tools. Simple changes like the letter id do not require sql queries with those tools.
You are right, the proper way to move all your media files from one drive or folder to another one is the backup and restore process from within the organizer. The restore recreates a clean database on the basis of your choice : same location as before, or new location anywhere.
Edit : you'll find free sqlite tools on the Web, my favourite is 'sqlite manager' an add-on for Firefox.

Transferring Ical between computers

I have recently transferred all data from an old Macbook to my new Macbook Pro using firewire. Unfortunately the bug that was in ical was also transferred and so will not sync with Mobile Me. I have returned the old Macbook back to factory settings using the installation disks so there is now a good copy of ical on the old machine. I now want to transfer the good ical to my new Macbook Pro, can this be done using firewire or any other means? If not how can I fix my ical?

Just what it says - open System Preferences, click on Mobile Me, and in the Advanced tab there should be an option to reset your sync data.

Transferring Printers Between Computers

I just finished setting a new Retina MBP up from a Time Machine Backup, and printers were not transferred. On the source machine, updated to 10.9.2, there are 7 printers, however on the destination machine, running 10.9.5, no printers copied over. Is there a way to export printers from the source and import them into the destination or some other method of copying printers from one computer to another in Mavericks?

I have no idea if that is possible or if it is done with Migration Assistant.
Seems like it would be faster to just Add the printers.

Transferring music between computers
