Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
It's easy to do that. Just follow these steps to transfer your iTunes library from your PC to the Mac > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1751 (You have to do the “Restoring your iTunes Library backup” step on the Mac)

These articles should provide some help :
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751 - this explains how to backup your content (including playlists and ratings) to an external drive, which can then be used to populate your new computer

Hi, first, you should prevent the iTunes library auto sync with iPhone: Launch iTunes > click Preferences... > click Devices. In the window, check the option 'Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically'. Next, connect your iPhone with your computer via the USB cable. Click the mini menu for iTunes on the very top left and click the option 'Show menu bar'. After then you can see iTunes File, Edit, View, Control, Store and Help menus on the ribbon. Click File > Devices > Transfer purchases from (your iPhone name). You can also access to the File menu by holding down Alt (Option on Mac), Shift and F keys. This is how to get your iPhone purcahsed song transferred to iTunes Library.

You can use a program like Carbon Copy Cloner. It will clone your HD to the external. The format is the same as your internal drive and you can boot from it using Option key at boot time.

The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

How can I transfer all the apps purchased from one account to another?

Good day,
I'm just wonderin' can I transfer all the apps purchased from my old account to a newer one?

No, apps (plus other content bought from Apple such as music and films) are tied to the account that bought / downloaded them and they can't be copied or transferred to a different account.

How can I have all the numbers transfered from my old cellphone?

In my old cell phone I have more than one number for each person: cell phone, land line, office etc. When I have transfered my telephone contacts from my old cell phone to my iphone, only one number for each name appears : how can I have all the numbers transfered?

When transfer contacts through SIM only the first number is really transferred.
What kind is your old phone?

If I secure my browser using CISecurity's baseline for Firefox, can I copy all the ".js" files from the hardened system to another?

I own multiple systems. I have hardened one browser following the guideline provided by CISecurity. Instead of repeating all the configurations performed on that one system, can I just copy all the ".js" files from the secured system to my other systems?
The ".js" files can be modified using a text editor. Is there a way to lock down these files to prevent modification?

Dear Joel
i know two ways to prevent browser from caching your files
First : The Hard way
just add ? +Math.random() in the end of your file
Like this :
in HTML :
<script type="text/javascript">
(function(){
     var e = document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];
     var d = document.createElement("script");
     d.src = "index_edgePreload.js?"+Math.random()+"";
     d.type = "application/javascript";
     d.async = true;
     d.defer = true;
     e.parentNode.insertBefore(d,e);
</script>
instead of this Line in HTML that created by EA :
<script type="application/javascript" src="index_edgePreload.js></script>
Disadvantage : you should do this for all of files you want to prevent from caching
===================================================
Second : The easyest way
You Should have Access to .htaccess file in your Server
Open your .htaccess file and paste these codes in it :
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType application/json "access plus 1 seconds"
ExpiresByType text/json "access plus 1 seconds"
ExpiresByType text/plain "access plus 1 seconds"
ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 month"
you can type what ever type of file you want to prevent from caching in browser
Advantage : after do this in your .htaccess file all files with the type you want will not Cache in your browser
Easy is'nt it ?

I bought my IPad 2 from UAE and went to Egypt but I can not access all the iTunes content?

Hello, I am a new user for apple, and I have just bought a new iPad2 from UAE, and returned back to my country Egypt, every thing is going ok except that when I acces the iTunes store, I do not have all the iTunes store contents, I only have "podcasts", "iTunes u", and "downloads", I don't have the music or the films, and when I try to access these services via an external link like e-mail, I get the message "your request can not be completed", so does any one know the reason?

I cannot find "Other" devices. I found Apple Mobile Device under Universal Bus Controllers but cannot see "recovery mode" or any other status. I use Windows Vista.
When I try to restart Apple Mobile Device Service I get the following message: "The Apple Mobile Device Service on Local Computer started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs". What does this mean?
During the last 48 hours I was able to see my iPad in iTunes only one time during many attemnpts to connect . I haven't been able to see it during the llast several attempts.
Any suggestions? The standard suggestions have not worked: i.e. stop then start AMDS; tuurn off iPad and PC, then restart both and reconfrom iPad to PC; reload iTunes.

My computer with my original library has crashed, how can i keep all the songs on my iphone, but still add new songs from my new library?

My computer has died and will not be working ever again. Problem is, i have all of my songs on that computer in my itunes library as well as on my phone. Now i want to add some songs to my phone from some new cds and it tells me i will loose all my songs on my phone right now when i perform the sync. How can i keep all of the songs on my iphone because now i do not have copies of these songs anymore except on my iphone?????? From what i have read, itunes is a joke because it only goes one way apparently. Not happy with itunes right now, more then a bit of a joke

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, big mistake, then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to the computer: File>Transfer Purchases
You may be able to buy a 3rd party program to get any other music off of the iphone ( not supported by Apple).
When you sync the iphone, it will erase the current content and replace with content form the new computer.
"Not happy with itunes right now, more then a bit of a joke"
Not itunes fault that you did not do the very basics and maintain a backup copy.

How can i copy all SMS and Imessage from my old iphone(4s) to my new iphone(6plus)?

I have over 8000 SMS in my 4s, so I want copy all of it to my 6plus but I dont know how to do that
p/s: sorry about my Eng ^^

Hello there TGF07,
You can transfer your messages from the 4s to your 6Plus by restoring a backup of the 4s to your other phone. Keep in mind this will overwrite what is on that phone right now, so be sure to import any new photos to your computer. This article will help you backup the 4s, then restore that backup to your 6Plus:
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iCloud or iTunes
