How can I tell if data was transferred to my MacBook Pro after the Migration Assistant process was stopped?

I began Migration Assistant and after about 4hrs into the transfer I decided to quit. How do I find out if any data was transferred to my Macbook Pro from my Windows 7 pc?

As long as you are behind a router, you don't need to have your firewall turned on at all, in fact it probably slows your computer and/or internet connection down a bit. The only time you need it is to either protect yourself against intrusion from others on your local network or if you hook your computer directly to a cable / DSL modem.

  • Why can't I open iTunes on my brand new macbook pro after using Migration Assistant to transfer content from my previous mac?

    I just purchased my new macbook pro yesterday and I used the Migrations Assistant to move files from my old mac to this one. Everything seems to be in working order EXCEPT iTunes. every time I try and open it a message appears telling me to download it and a second window also comes up saying error (-42408) occurred. I have tried to download iTunes7 and even plug my iPhone is but nothing has worked. Help!

  • How can I get my data out of my broken Macbook Pro?

    My macbook pro was working weird for no reason at Friday, and it also cannot turn on at Saturday suddenly, I didn't have time to backup my laptop before it stop working. Is this a response of Apple to help me take my data out of my broken laptop? Even I am still covered by applecare, they told me I need pay for extra 99 dollars for backup my data to my external hard drive.

  • What is the fastest way to transfer data from old macbook pro to new macbook pro using the migration assistant

    I'm trying to transfer my data (applications, files, etc.) From my older macbook pro to my new macbook pro. I've started the migration wizard and the process aHa its going to take 16 hours. Is there a faster way? Fireside? If so what cables would I need and is it ok to stop this since its already startwd.

    Ethernet or Firewire:

    Sounds like you're using WiFi...that will take forever & can produce errors.

  • Why is there no data on my new MacBook Pro after using Migration Assistant?

    Last night I launched Migration Assistent between my MacBook to my MacBook Pro.  It said it would take 12 hours so I left it over night.  When it finished this morning it said that some files were not able to be transferred.  But there is absolutely nothing on my new MacBook Pro.  Why is that?
    My TimeMachine backup disk has a cable that won't work with the new MacBook Pro so what other choice do I have to transfer data?

  • How can i recover my photos from iMessage on my macbook pro after i forward them to myself?

    I wanted to save some pictures from an iMessage Convo i had on my macbook and to save them i forwarded them to myself to my iPhone, all the sudden the convo disappears with the pictures i wanted to save. Is there a way for me to go back so i can get the rest of the pictures? I try to bring back the convo by typing the persons name but nothing pops up.

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    how did you do the backups?

    You need a Thunderbolt or mini DisplayPort to composite converter like this one:

    Yikes, unless you can find one for much less than that, I'd put than kind of money toward a TV with HDMI connections.

    how can I get a date picker or wheel to show up in the form to make filling in a form with a lot of dates more easy?

    There is no built-in date picker available for forms created in Acrobat. There are some third-party solutions involving JavaScript (either a large collection of fields or a custom dialog) though. Also, text fields with date formatting will use a wheel type date picker on Android/iOS devices with Adobe Reader.

  • How can I tell if my EMET GPO is in place instead of the local xml file on a computer?

    Hi,
    I did the following commands on my test machine with EMET 5.1 installed:
    emet_conf --delete_all
    emet_conf --refresh
    emet_conf --list
    There were applications that came up but how can I tell if it is really coming from GPO and not the local configuration file that came with EMET 5.1? Am I suppose to see a "greater than symbol" prior to the name of the application or no?
    When I ran rsop.msc on the machine, I can see that my group policy in place.  But I thought I'm suppose to see a greater than symbol (like below) - which means the list of apps are coming from the GPO:
    Executable             Path                                  
    Mitigations
    >7z.exe                *\7-Zip                               
    DEP SEHOP NullPage HeapSpray EAF MandatoryASLR BottomUpASLR
    >7zFM.exe              *\7-Zip                               
    DEP SEHOP NullPage HeapSpray EAF MandatoryASLR BottomUpASLR
    >7zG.exe               *\7-Zip                               
    DEP SEHOP NullPage HeapSpray EAF MandatoryASLR BottomUpASLR
    >Acrobat.exe           *\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\Acrobat            DEP SEHOP NullPage HeapSpray EAF MandatoryASLR BottomUpASLR
    >Acrobat.exe           *\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat            DEP SEHOP NullPage HeapSpray EAF MandatoryASLR BottomUpASLR
    >Acrobat.exe           *\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat           DEP SEHOP NullPage HeapSpray
    Am I wrong? Is that an EMET 3.1 "thing" only?  Please let me know.
    Thanks!

    Never mind.  I got it.  If you do an "Emet_conf --List" it will turn out something like this that indicates you are getting your policies from GPO

  • How can i clean up my disk space on my MacBook Pro

    how can i clean up my disk space on my MacBook Pro something  like a disk cleanup on a pc?

    Those things you did on your PC you need not worry about on your Mac. Most is done behind the scenes.
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions About OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior.  Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.)
    If you are using a pre-Leopard version of OS X, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger.  (These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion and should not be installed.)
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
    I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. (There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion or later.)
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
      1. Carbon Copy Cloner.
      2. Data Backup
      3. Deja Vu
      4. SuperDuper!
      5. SyncTwoFolders
      6. Synk Pro
      7. Synk Standard
      8. Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Always have a current backup before performing any system updates or upgrades.

    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity or 20 GBs, whichever is greater, as free space.

  • How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • My hard drive has 70.93 GB available, yet when i have more than one internet tab open, i have to force quit google chrome because 'there is no more available application memory'. How can I solve this? I have a 2009 macbook pro running on 10.6.8.

    My hard drive has 70.93 GB available, yet when i have more than one internet tab open, i have to force quit google chrome because 'there is no more available application memory'. How can I solve this? I have a 2009 macbook pro running on 10.6.8. I have tried updating to mavericks through the mac app store but after it downloading for a day i got an error message saying there was a problem with the download. The same thing happens if i try to update itunes or the mac app store. After research, i have also tried repairing disk permissions, but every time they do get repaired the 'repair' button still appears, i'm not sure if it's because it was unable to repair the initial problems or if it just keeps detecting new ones.

    2 GBs is a minimum in which you can do many things, but not concurrently. Be very careful to not install third-party add-ons, limit the number of applications you choose to enter in Login Items, run as few applications concurrently as you demand.
    I would consider adding more RAM to your computer. Your model supports 8 GBs, so I would install that.
