How do I find my files after I transfer my PC files to MacBook using Migration Assistant. Photos? Music?

I thought photos were supposed to be filed in the Mac photo file. Where are the migrated files located?

Photos should be in the Pictures folder. Music should be in the Music folder.

    Look in /Users folder. You can go to System Preferences > Users & Groups, open the lock and "-" delete the account it created.
    This is a problem whenever you use migration assistant after the initial install. The proper way to run Migration Assistant is in Setup Assistant when you first boot your Mac. I don't know why Apple isn't clearer about this issue.

  • HT5097 How do I find my files after a TC restore using Migration Assistant?

    How do I find my TC backup?
    My difficulties started with my MacBook Pro going totally dead.  Took it to the Apple Store, where they identified a problem with the RAM.  They fixed it, and also reinstalled Lion, but without my applications - Pages, iPhoto, my documents etc. 
    When I got back home, I used Migration Assistant, which I found in Utilities, connected to the Time Capsule with an Ethernet cable, and it said at the end that it had transferred all my info.  During the process I had to create another ID.   I added a "1" to my old id, of course...easiest thing to do....and then I changed the Login procedure so I could switch to that user ID.  I'm not sure that worked, because when my MacBook Pro went to sleep, I found the original icon, rather than the one for the name1 name.  So that may be part of the problem, but I don't know.
    Anyway, then I entered Time Machine, but all that is there is the last few days/hours of activity. 
    I don't know much about computers, but I think that the new name1 user ID and the restored data may be linked somewhere and if I could just find it perhaps this would get resolved.
    I can see the applications now, but when I look for, for example, Pages documents, there is nothing there.  Ditto for iPhoto.  For iPhoto I also tried file>import, which brought in some old files from MobileMe, but not the photos I had on my MacBook. 
    I would prefer not to have the name/name1 and just have everything back as it was, but I don't know how to do that either.
    Hope someone can help me!  Many thanks!!!

    Never mind!  I finally figured out - duh - that if I logged out and then logged in under the new name1 ID, I could find everything!  HOOORAY!

  • Time machine: I get the following message: The backup disk image "/Volumes/Data-1/Clemens's iMac.sparsebundle" is already in use - what to do? Where and how do I find that file and get rid of it?

    time machine: I get the following message: The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/Clemens’s iMac.sparsebundle” is already in use - what to do? Where and how do I find that file and get rid of it?

    I'm on Mountain Lion and have version 6.1 of AirPort utility so there is no button to "Disconnect All Users"and the only other option of "removing and re-selecting the drive via Time Machine Prefs" doesn't work either. So this will work.
    Launch Airport Utility and select the TC "Edit" button, then select the Disks tab. Deselect "Enable File Sharing" and click "Update". The TC will reboot then follow the same procedure and reselect "Enable File Sharing" and click "Update". After TC reboots again you'll be up and running. Not the neatest way to do it but saves having to unplug the TC which risks disk damage and the whole procedure takes less than a minute.The "Enable File Sharing" button seems to have replaced the "Disconnect All Users" button but with the slight disadvantage that it reboots the TC which takes up additional time.

  • How do i find a file in finder exported to youtube using motion 5?

    i just tried to upload a video from motion 5 to youtube. it transcoded/exported the file and failed uploading to youtube but i can't find the file. how do i find the file so i can upload it manually?
    side note, a second question, this is the only way i could export the video that would make it a normal size (650MB), every other regular "export movie" selection ended up being 10GB. what settings do i use to make sure it's a normal size? the video really isn't that high quality and i have no idea why it would be that big.
    any help is appreciated.

    What do you mean by "normal" size?  What is the frame size, frame rate, and codec you're editing in the Timeline?

    The music continued to play with the iPod?
    If so, when a call is received while listening to music with the iPod, when the call is answered the music should be paused. When ending the call, the music starts playing again from where is was paused.
    There is no automatic mute with notifications for received email or messages while on a call and there is no setting for this.

  • How do I find a file size for a project in its entirety ???, How do I find a file size for a project in its entirety ???

    How do I find a file size for a aperture project in its entirety ????

    You can't. The Aperture library is a combination of database and flat files, a project can be split among multiple files in combination with other projects. The size of any of those files (or a sum of the files) would have no meaning concerning the size of a project.
    BTW typing in a large bold font like you did is seen by many in then on-line community as a sign of shouting and is considered bad form. I'm sure you didn't mean to shout at us here as we are all just users here freely giving of our time to try and help folk like yourself so please in the future use the standard font.

  • When I try to open a picture in iphoto a message tells me the file cannot be found. How do I find the file?

    When I try to open a picture in iphoto a message tells me the file cannot be found. How do I find the file?  It does not happen with all the pictures.

    Is you library a "referenced" or "managed" library:
    That message is generated when a library is a "referenced" library and the location of the files have been moved from where they were when originally imported into iPhoto.
    Are the photos that this is happening to in the same Event(s)?
    What system are your running?  Where is your library located? How much free space do you have on your boot drive?

  • "dtutil", how to tell which configuration file for packages using after deployment?

    Hello All, 
    Trying to achieve this feature, 
    Using DOS command to automatic my deployment process--glad I found dtutil. However, it doesnt give you any chance to identify which configuration file to be used by SSIS packages after deployment.
    Deployment Method: file deployment
    Configuration sued: XML file and SQL Table. IN XML file, it tells which DB connection for packages to look up the configuration table.
    Who can share some thoughts on this?
    Derek

    It is NOT about sequence.
    It is about how to point which configuration file to be used by deployed packages as during the "dtutil.exe"
    deployment, you dont have chance to identify which physical location confg files to be used.
    Derek
    That you do only at the time of execution of packages. By default it uses configuration settings created at design time within the package. If you want to override it, you can use \Configfile switch of dtexec for that. You can also set explicit values for
    properties using /SET switch

    Where your backups are stored
    The folder where your backup data is stored depends on your computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your data-backup routine. iTunes places the backup files in these places:
        Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
        The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your Home folder, hold Option and click the Go menu.
        Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
        To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then press Return.
        Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
        To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, then choose Run. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then click OK.

  • How do I find corrupt file that would be disallowing proper exporting of movie?

    How do I find corrupt file that would be disallowing proper exporting of movie?

    I usually start by exporting to AME (as opposed to encoding "in-process" by clicking Export in the Export Settings dialog). Then watch the preview in AME's Encoding panel to see where it chokes. Adding an adjustment layer over the whole sequence with the Timecode effect applied--and scaled up to full frame width--can really help isolate the location.
    That approach can be a pain in cases where it chugs away for a long time before encoding fails. In those cases, I use a divide-and-conquer approach:
    Is it the video or the audio?: Disable all video tracks and encode. Then re-enable the video and mute all audio tracks
    Where in the timeline is the problem: Export the first half, then the second half (using In/Out Points). Then keep dividing the half that fails until you've narrowed it down to a relative handful of clips.

  • How do u find itunes files on the computer

    how do u find itune files on the computer mine wont load right

    They are there as iTunes can't find the files. I get what you want to say. Try to remember if you had a hard drive or USB Stick containg Music? As removing it would cause iTunes to look for it. On a PC the iTunes apps and stuff are in Music>iTunes>iTunes Media
