  • Transfer account from old MBP to new one and now my account password does not work.

    I trasferred my account from one MPB to a new one using targeted disk method.  I left my desk while it finished and came back to a registration page.  I registered and the system rebooted.  Now I see my login details but the password form my old Mac fails.  The hint it gives me also seems to be bogus becaues I've tried many variations of the hint and they also do not work. 
    I'm submitting this from my original MBP and had not problem using my old password logging in to it.  Why didn't my password transfer properly and now how do I fix my new MBP?
    I made sure duing the transfer process to select everything for transfer -- accounts, applications, etc.  All check boxes were checked.

  • How to i transfer actions from old computer to new one?

    Hi!
    I bought a new computer and installed Adobe Photosho 4 on it. But as i had tons of actions on my old computer, is it maybe possible to transfer those to my new comp?
    Regards,
    Hanno

    I presume you mean Photoshop CS4?
    Save the actions in sets (very important) on the old computer and then copy the saved *.atn files across to the new computer.
    They belong in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Presets\Actions

  • How to transfer music from old computer to new one

    The logic board is shot on my old iBook. I bought a new one. I can access the old one through target disk mode. I replaced the iTunes folder on the new one with the iTunes folder from the old one but the music doesn't show up in the library. If I go to the iTunes music folder and click on a song it gets added to the new library, but I have 4000 songs. My admin user name is the same on both computers. What's the secret?

    Hi
    Follow this:

    Where the article talks about using an iPod you simply transfer directly between the old hard drive and the new hard drive.

    In most countries, music and apps can be downloaded for free in the iTunes/App stores if you log into the new iPad using the Apple ID with which you used to purchase them. The same goes for most films. You can also sync the old iPad with a computer and then sync the new one with the same computer, and restore it from the backup you made of the old iPad.
    If you have notes and emails on the old iPad, go into 'System Preferences' and make sure they are saved into the iCloud. You can then retrieve them from the cloud by logging in to the same email/iTunes accounts on the new iPad.

  • Cannot transfer Library from old computer to new one.

    We got a new computer, and tried to export the Library via 1g Flash drives, but all that got us was a list of the names of the songs. Then tried to copy the songs to the flash drives, and then copy them into the new computer's Itunes program, but the songs would not play, nor would they transfer to the Ipod. Please help.

  • How do I transfer data from old laptop to new one without using time machine?

    I just bought a new Macbook and want to transfer everything over and wipe my old Macbook so the kids can have it.  I have an external hard drive, that has photos etc. on it already.  When I try to do a Time Machine back up, it tells me the drive is not formatted correctly and that to complete the back up, it will have to erase everything.  I can't move the photos back on to the old Macbook because there isn't enough free disc space.  So, I don't think I can do this with Time Machine.  How would you recommend I transfer the data over?  Thanks!

    Use Migration Assistant during the setup of the new machine. Connect both machines up to a wired network if possible and follow the instructions. It's worth running software update on the old MacBook first as there was an update to Migration assistant for OS X 10.5 and 10.6 published recently.

  • Need to transfer songs from old computer to new one..??

    I have a laptop that I was using while my main computer was in the shop for repair. In that time I got an Ipod 30 Gig. I connected it to the laptop and downloaded quite a few songs. After I got my main 'puter back, I installed all the relevent software and so on for the Ipod. I downloaded some new songs and videos to this computer, but it will not go on to my Ipod. I plug in and it asks if I want to overwrite my old library? Well heck no! I want to merge them..so to speak. Well, I let it overwrite but it didn't put any new songs or video on it. Said I was using another library at this time. !!! This is getting very aggrevating. Does anyone know how to get all my songs/video's on one computer and all of them on the Ipod as well???

    The iPods will not auto sync betten mulitiple computers. You will have to set it to sync manually. Search for iPod multiple computers there are lots of posts telling you how to do this.

  • How to download past purchases from old device to new one?

    I had an iPod touch that I purchased music on, now I can't find the device but it doesn't matter because I have an iPhone now. But the problem is I can't sync my old iPod to the computer since I can't find it, but why does that matter when the music was purchased? If it was all purchased under my Apple ID it should still be in my library but its not. I'm missing songs that I've purchased before, instead of the cloud icon showing up next to it the price does so I'm assuming I have to repurchase , which is ridiculous. Is there anyway I could get the songs that I've purchased back & put them on my iPhone

  • How can i transfer everything from old iphone4s to new iphone5?

    just bought new iphone5, how do i transfer all the apps/contacts/etc from olf iphone4s?

    The easiest way is to back up old phone to icloud and then restore new phone from that old phone backup. Any purchased content such as apps and songs from the itunes and apps stores can be downloaded again.
    These directions are for an ipad, but the method is the same.
