How can I transfer a profile to my new computer without overwriting the existing profile?

I have a new Window 7 computer and have started using TB. I now want to transfer my messages from my old (Window XP) and do not want to overwrite the data in the new computer. Is there a way to transfer the old data and add it to the new profile?

For downloads of CS3 see THIS thread.
For your serial number, if Photoshop is still running on your old machine;
Start Photoshop. Goto Help > System Info. Buried in amongst all the stuff in there will be your serial number. Read through it carefully.
If Photoshop is not installed / running on your old machine, then you are indeed pretty much hosed.
This is always assuming software that old will run successfully on a new machine, of course.

  • How can I transfer my iphone to a new computer without losing my apps

    Hi,
    so here's my story:
    I share a computer with another family member (computer 1) and we each have our own iphones with different apple ID's on computer 1.  I recently got a new computer though and downloaded itunes onto it (computer 2). I've already started adding music to computer 2 and now I want to move my iphone to computer 2. How can I do that so that I do not lose all my apps? I guess it would be okay to lose the pictures and music because I already have a way to recover those.  But I wouldn't mind if anyone has a way to salvage everything. Also, it should be noted that I do not prefer to keep computer 1's library.
    Second question: If I were to copy computer 1's library to computer 2, would I be able to keep the existing music from computer 2, or would it just replace the whole library with the copy of computer 1's?
    Third question: Computer 2 claims that there is now a backup of my iphone on it, but still won't let me sync the phone. If I were to go ahead and say, "yes, sync the phone and erase the content," would computer 2 allow me to restore the phone or not? (because it's still synced to computer 1)
    Thanks in advance everyone!
    Sincerely, the dark night

  • How can I transfer my bookmarks to a new computer without syncing, since the old computer is trashed and cannot connect?

    That's it. I need my bookmarks. But that computer is never going to connect to the internet again. Remember when we didn't assume interconnectivity of every damn thing? This is how the cyclons are going to win.
    Any help out there?

    Assuming that old PC still boots up, see this: <br />
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile
    If it won't boot up, you might be able to install the old hard drive into a USB hard drive enclosure and connect the old drive as an external drive.

  • I have an older Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer these songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available

    I have an oder Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer ths songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available?

    I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

  • How can i transfer my ipod to my new itunes without losing all music

    my computer crashed and now all i have is my cousins and i need to know how to convert my music onto her new itunes, hopefully without losing all my music. if thats possible, so there is no way i can go back to my old itunes, her computer is the only itunes i will be able to use. how can i transferr my ipod touch to her computer without losing all data???

    Welcome to the discussion,
    Create a new user in windows to keep your iTunes library separate and log in. Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
    Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • HT1589 how can i transfer my library to a new computer? old computer is not working

    how can i transfer my i-tunes library to a new computer? my old computer is not working.

    It has alwasy been very basic to always maintain a backup copy.  Have you failed to do this?  not good.
    You would have to take the hard drive out of your old computer and connect it to your new and transfer the info.

  • How can I transfer from iPod (16GB) to new computer (Windows 7) without erasing iPod?

    My old computer (Windows 7) died and I have a new computer (Windows 7). I had my iTunes library backed up, but I can't get it to work on my new computer. Is there a way to transfer what is on my iPod Touch (16 gb) to my new computer without losing it on the iPod?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Not with iSync, that's for sure. You should post your question in an appropriate iTunes forum here:

  • How can I sync my iphone to a new computer without losing music

    I have heaps of music from my old work computer on my phone. I want to sync to my computer at home now. How can I do this without losing the music and other data???

    To sync to a new computer without losing your data follow the steps outlined by Ingo2711 in this post: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3801263?tstart=0.  However, as pointed out in this post, music not purchased from iTunes syncs only one way: computer --> phone.  (Music purchased from iTunes can always be redownloaded for free (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519).  You will have to purchase 3rd party software in order to transfer non-purchased music from your phone to your computer, such as Touch Copy.

  • How do I transfer my playlists to a new computer without transferring all my music from the external hard drive?

    I would like to transfer my itunes to a new computer but only see instructions to transfer all my music over including the playlists.  All my music is currently stored on an external hard drive because it is a very large library of over 30GB so don't really want the music taking space on my laptop but want to have the playlists transferred over and be able to access my music library on the new computer through the external hard drive.  Any idea how to do this?

    As Chris says... but if the media is on an external drive as above then you also need to make sure the external drive has the same drive letter on the system you are moving to or iTunes won't be able to find the files.

  • How can I transfer my iTunes library to new computer?

    I have all of my songs on my iTunes library in a older computer. Just got a new computer and I don't know how to transfer my iTunes library from old computer to my new one. I tried out few ideas but i can't do the task.
    I really appreciate any help or advice.

    How about using an external drive? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
    or follow this article using cd's and restore afterwards on your new computer. Don't forget to authorize your new computer in the store menu in itunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420

  • How can i transfer my songs to my new computer? not using an ipod!

    Okay, not that the whole ipod hard drive situation is convenient anyway. I mean I didn't even realize that there was a certain way to save the files in need of transferring the songs. Here's the situation. I was using my boyfriend's dad's computer till I got mine, and I got mine only a week before coming to Japan. I was crunched for time, and I guess I didn't research it thoroughly, but knew I could use my ipod to transfer the songs. So I downloaded the songs onto my ipod. It wasn't till later when I realized why it wasn't working. Well now I'm in a bit of a pickle because I won't be able to get my ipod hooked up with that computer till next May. My boyfriend is coming to visit however next month, and was wondering if there was a convenient way for him to save the files, short of 50 cds, to allow me to transfer my music when he gets here. I searched the forums, but they all seem foreign! Can anyone help me?

    Hi, thanks for the suggestion. Are data DVDs expensive? and where can I find them? Once I get them, can I use the same steps as transferring songs using my old ipod? Couldn't find anything on transferring songs not with an ipod. Do I have to change preferences before saving them onto the DVD's. I can't seem to find that page again, but it seemed pretty specific about the steps I needed to take before saving the files onto the ipod and after hooking it up with the new computer. Can you help me with this?
    Sincerely, Diana
