Sync isn't a "cloud service" to back up miscellaneous user selected files. Only specific Firefox user data and preferences are synchronized.
See this for what types of Firefox data Sync is intended to handle.

  • How do I move all files from an old PPC to a new Mac Mini?

    How do I move all files from an old PPC to a new Mac Mini?

    The new mini has a Firewire 800 port. Likely the PPC version only has Firewire 400.  The OP will need a converter cable which is why I was asking first about what hardware is available and how much is being copied.
    Probably go with using the external hard drive if you decide all you want are data files.

    Once you have successfully done that you can go ahead and choose Erase and Sync when you plug your iPod in.

  • How do I transfer files from my old PC to my new MAC?

    My new iMac arrived on Monday and I successfully downloaded the drivers for printers, etc.  Now I need to move files from my old PC to my iMac.  Is there a faster way of doing it other than copying files to a thumb drive and loading on my Mac?  What about files on my MacBook Pro that need to be moved?  How do I do that?  I'm not really techie so please be detailed about any cables, etc. that I might need to purchase.  Many thanks.

    The easiest way is to  put the fiels on an external HD and drag and drop them. Here are some links I'd STRONGLY recommend bookmarking and using immediately.

    These links are designed for folks like yourself, recent MS Windows switchers. BTW you also have 90 days of free AppleCare telephone service, if you get stuck you can always call . You will find the number in your manual.

  • How do I transfer my ipod from my old windows to my new mac?

    I got a new mac. I tried to sync my ipod classic to the new mac. It got stuck in the "Do not disconnect" mode. It stayed like that all day and all night. I finally tried to sync it back to my old windows and got a message on my windows computer that it did not recognize it. When I hook it to my mac, it doesn't do anything and the sync command in my mac itunes doesn't highlight.
    My ipod won't even turn off.

    Try restoring your iPod on the Mac. Restoring in iTunes for Mac will erase and reformat the iPod's hard drive, reload the software with the Mac version and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes

  • How do i access files from my old hard drive on my mac book pro with a new hard drive?

    I recently got more RAM as well as a new and bigger hard drive installed on my 2008 MacBook Pro. I backed up the files on an external hard drive, and now I want to be able to access those files (ie: my passwords from my old computer hard drive "keychain access") <= I can't remember them for the lyfe of me! I used "time machine" to transfer the information, but now I want to know how to access those files or import them...Please help! I don't want to have to pay $20 to talk to apple support

  • I migrated my files from my old PC to my new mac but it put everything in a separate user account. How do I get everything into one user account?

    I would like all my old files under the same account as all my news files so that I don't have to switch back and forth between user accounts

    Have a read here:

    Might be better/best to start the thing all over and using the Setup Assistant instead of the MIgration Assistant this time:

  • How do I sync the music from my iPhone to iTunes on my mac?

    I got a new macbook and I can't sync the music from my iPhone to iTunes.. How do i do that?

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.
    The sync is one way - computer iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old comptuer, to your new one.

  • Copied files from external drive, now "read only" on Mac HDD

    I recently moved a large amount of files from my old PC to my new Mac. I copied the files from WinXP to a USB hard drive, then connected the drive to my Mac. After I copied all the files to the Mac I noticed that the majority of them are set with permissions that say "You can only read this file". How do I take ownership of these files so I can delete/rename some of them?
    Thanks!

    Select your file and open the information panel. By owner and access, change the permission.

    Hi, I am having a little trouble with exporting images to another drive and Catalogue and need some help if anyone can give me some advice
    I am currently using Lightroom 5.6 and operating on a Mac with OSX Ver 10.9.5.
    I am receiving an error problem when doing the following -
    I am exporting selected photos from a particular Catalogue saved on Drive 1 to a folder created on another Drive where a Lightroom Catalogue has been created. In this Catalogue I have arranged for the images once exported to be moved to a different folder - I used the Auto Import process under the File dialogue box.
    When processing the Export I receive an error message for each of the images being exported indicating the following -
    Heading Import Results
    Some import operations were not performed
    Could not move a file to requested location. (1)
    then a description of the image with file name
    Box Save As                                  Box  OK
    If I click the OK button to each image I can then go to the other Catalogue and all images are then transferred to the file as required.
    To click the OK button each time is time consuming, possibly I have missed an action or maybe you can advise an alternative method to save the time in actioning this process.
    Thanks if you can can help out.

    Thank You, but this is a gong show. Why is something that is so important to us all so very, very difficult to do?

  • How do I get my old printer "HP Laserjet 4mv" to work on my newer Macs with OSX?

    How do I get my old printer "HP Laserjet 4mv" to work on my newer Macs with OSX?
    There is no HP support for this old printer. I have tried to connect via ethernet (thru ethernet router), and it does not show up in printer preferences. The printer worked fine on system 9x but when I went to my new macs with system X no luck. This is a great B&W printer that prints at 18 x 24". I would like to keep it and not junk it, but its been sitting on my desk unused for some time now. Any thoughts or JUNK IT! Thanks, R.T.

    Does anyone at Apple have help for this sort of question - I too have an old printer (HP LaserJet 5MP) that I would like to keep using on my Mac. (Mac OSX 10.6.8).
    I got it working by getting a USB cord that connects to it - but every once in a while it just stops working for weeks. The mac 'sees' it and it sends the data because the printer lights start blinking but then it just doesn't do anything. Is there no one who can tell me (and raterada) how to get some new life into these old printers. I would rather not add this (and a new toner cart) to the landfill just yet. . .

    Hello.  I am running Photoshop CC 2014 on a MAC with OSX LION.  I also have Photoshop CS6 installed.  When I double-click on a file in Bridge CC, it always opens in CS6.  If I say "OPEN WITH Photoshop CC 2014", or if I drag the file directly to CC 2014 in the Dock it will open in CC.  Since I like to double-click or hit return in the bridge, I am constantly having to wait until the file opens in CS6, quit CS6 an then open it another way to get it into Photoshop CC 2014.  I tried to disable CS6 by hiding it, but then double-clicking Bridge did nothing.  Any ideas why this is happening?

    Check and adjust the File Type Associations in the bridge cc preferences.
