Hi, Just got a new mac, how do I get may address/contacts from old computer to "mail' on new computer

How do i get my address/contact list from entourage on old mac, to 'mail' on new mac?

Peruse Pondini's Setup New Mac guide and consider starting over, using the Setup Assistant to do the migration.

    Received a new mac for my daughter.  How do you get all the information from old mac?

    Your best bet, by far, is to use Setup Assistant when your shiny new Mac first starts up (not Migration Assistant later).

    Unless you subscribe to iTunes Match , Apple does not keep a backup of your iTunes library.  Even then it is not the library as it exists on your computer, but some version of the media, and only media files, not playlists.  Even then not all media are definitely available since anything removed from the iTunes Store since you purchased it is not available for re-download.

    In your case it sounds like you will have to obtain non iTunes purchases from their original source or a backup you may have made at some time in the past.

  • How do i get My Documents files from PC to work on my new macpro, how do i get My Documents files from PC to work on my new macpro, how do i get My Documents files from PC to work on my new macpro

    I have just purchased my first Mac after using PC for years. I dont need to move programs over but I do need to get my document files to open and be useable on the Mac. I have Office on the PC and Office for Mac on the Mac. I have tried copying the files to a portable drive, plug into the Mac and can open both Word and Excel and can edit however cannot save the edited document as it tells me the file is read only and then that the disc might be full, which it isnt as I have checked.
    Is it because the portable drive is NTFS format and the Mac wont recognise this? If so what do I do?
    Thanks hopefully

    Yes, this is exactly what is causing the problem. Macs cannot write to NTFS formatted drives, only read. You must move the documents to the internal HDD/SSD of the Mac to be able to edit them.
    Or, since you say you don't want to move the documents to the internal storage, you'll need to format the external HDD as FAT32.

    1) Copy all music files to a thumb drive / external hard drive.
    2) Open iTunes on your MacBook Pro (congrats!)
    3) Under the File Menu, select "Add to Library."  Navigate to the folder with your music in it and click "Open."  Bam!  Music.

    Click here and pick the option which best fits your situation. Rented movies can only be moved through the iPod and will not play on the new computer if any other method is used.

    Restore the device from the backup created.
    If no backup exists, there is nothing to recover.

  • I want to know how I can get all my stuff from my iPhone 3 to my new iPhone five after I have already set up from new phone?

    I want to know how I can get all my stuff from my iPhone 3 to my new iPhone five after I have already set up from new phone?

    You can restore a backup of the old device to a new one.  This will erase everything on the new one before restoring, so this may be an issue if you already have data on the new device. 
    To do a backup of the old device, iTunes is the safest route, in my opinion.  Many users have lost photos when performing a restore from an icloud backup.
    An icloud backup does not include everything.  For example,only photos in camera roll are backed up.  Also, music is not backed up since you get it back from itunes and (for purchased music) from the itunes store.
    To restore:

    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your phone.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

    Try using the app My Contacts Backup, which will back up your contacts as an attachment to an email.  Send this email to yourself, open it on your Mac and double-click the attachment to import them to Address Book (or Contacts if you have Mountain Lion).

    how do I get all my music from icloud to my itunes on my computer and my iphone and stop using icloud?

    Hi,
    You music is not in your iCloud account, it is in iTunes in the Cloud. Whether you use iCloud personally or not, it will not have an effect on the iTunes in the Cloud functionality. If you are using iTunes, then all of your purchases through iTunes will use iTunes in the Cloud as a backup for your purchases.
