How can I transfer files from iBook G4 Tiger to new MBP?
Want to export address book and bookmarks. Talked to Apple Care two times. Both told me not to use flash drive. ??? First said to get ethernet cable. That didn't work. Second said to use file sharing over bluetooth. That made a connection, but won't share.
Thank you OrangeMarlin. So, my first inclination was to use a flash drive, but both Apple Care guys said no, that that would bring corruption etc. They were adamant about it. But neither of their answers worked.
I just want to transfer my extensive address book and photo library. I can see that my bookmarks for Safari might bring problems, but it sure would be a time saver. And what about all my documents?
Over the holiday, family members, Mac users also thought and have used the flash drive.

I am thinking about purchasing a new IMac and presently use a PC. I would like to find out how difficult it is to transfer files from the PC to the IMac or in more detail - just how is it done. Many thanks for any responses.
There are several ways by which it can be done. There is a special Migration Assistant for transferring an entire user account from a PC to the Mac. You would have to establish a network connection between the two machines.
Transfer the files you want to an external USB hard drive from the PC then transfer from the external drive to the Mac.
Ask the Apple retailer if they will transfer your data to the new Mac at the time of purchase. You will need to bring the PC with you. -

How can I transfer files from one external HD (WD My Passport 2T) to another external HD (Seagate Backup Plus 2T)? WD drive was improperly ejected (although we did tell it to eject) and now Finder no longer recognizes it. Using MacBook Pro and I just upgraded to Yosemite before this happened. Was told at Apple Store to use Disk Utility to repartition, but it failed. It says to backup files and restore. But how do I backup files? Or would appreciate any other suggestions to repair drive.
You may drag & drop between external hds.
Should you run into trouble.
Take the exernal drive appart. Take out the harddrive. Try reading the data via a usb adapter. Put a household finan on the hd.

i have deleted my private folder and do not have enough space to reinstall my operating system. How can i transfer files from my hard drive to an USB drive to free up space when the operating system isn't working. or do i need to erase disk through disk utilities without erasing data (but will it delete my programs such as photoshop, office, creative suite?
Connect the computer to another Mac and put it in FireWire Target Disk mode, or use the Disk Utility to clone the drive or image specific folders with the USB drive as the target. After you've copied off everything you want, you'll likely need to erase the drive and reinstall the applications.

One way would be to e-mail them from yourself to yourself. That would totally avoid the different ID issue.

You can't. Not directly anyway. You might be able to import them to your computer and then sync them to the iPad but there is no way to transfer them over the air or by connecting the two devices with a cable.
I know absolutely nothing about apps like this, but I did a very quick Google search and found this.
