How do I migrate firefox settings from a 4.0 FF install on my old main drive, now connected as an external drive, to my new main hard drive's 4.0 FF installation?

My old computer's motherboard cooked, but the hard drive was undamaged. I removed it, and converted it to an external hard drive using cables, and now want to migrate the bookmarks, passwords, and settings to my new computer's main hard drive installation of Firefox.

See [[Managing Profiles]] which explains how to recover data from your profile on the old drive.

How do I import my library from an external disk to my new MBP hard drive?

My old MBP was running out of space so I exported my Aperture library (250GB) to an external drive. I just replaced my old computer with a new MBP with a 1TB flash drive. Now that I have the space, I want to put my library back on my computer but I can't figure out how bring it in from my external hard drive. Any ideas? Many thanks.

Why do you say " I exported my Aperture library"? Did you actually use "File > Export > Items as new Library" in Aperture to create a new library on your external drive? A simple drag and drop of the library should have sufficed. What is your Aperture version?

Connect your external drive and use the Finder to drag the Aperture library from the external drive back to the Pictures folder.
Then double-click the library to point Aperture to the new location and open the copied library in Aperture.
If your Aperture library uses referenced originals, select the referenced images and use the command File > Consolidate originals" to move the originals back to your internal disk.
If you should encounter any error messages (like error -36) while moving the library to the internal drive, post back.

How do I migrate my plugins from Photoshop CC to Photoshop CC 2014

How do I migrate my plugins from Photoshop CC to Photoshop CC 2014? e.g. Nik plugins, Alien Skin etc ...

For a quick fix, I made an alias of the Plug-ins folder in Photoshop CC and dropped in in the Plug-ins folder for Photoshop CC 2014. Everything I have tested so far seems to be working. This includes Alien Skin, Nik Collection, Topaz Labs, MacPhun Software, DxO, and Perfect Photo Suite.

Seasons Greetings. How do I keep firefox 4 from disallowing my most important sites?

Question
Seasons Greetings. How do I keep firefox 4 from disallowing my most important sites? All the garbage, it lets sail right in, but my bank accounts and library accounts are not allowed. Why is this? I have looked in the help section and tried the permissions manager, but when I type about:permissions in the location bar, I receive the following error, "The URL is not valid and cannot be located." Thanks for any useful information.

Thanks for responding. Sorry I wasn't very precise. When attempting to navigate to one of these sites, a message at the top of the screen appears, "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." Then there is a dialog box which says, "Allow." Once I 'allow' it, the page I'm trying to open does so. This only occurs with certain pages, and usually pages that I need open without any computer interference. I hope this clarifies things. Again, thanks for taking your time to respond.

How do I migrate my albums from old mac to my new macbook?

How do I migrate my albums from old mac to my new macbook? The photos are already migrated, but I've lost all the old groupings in the albums and I don't want to manually re-group the thousands of photos!!!

I was using version 6.0.6 of iPhoto.
My issue is that I already have sorted the photos into Albums - about 50 of them. And now on my new computer I can't see any of the albums I had sorted them into, and I don't want to have to recreate all those Albums! That was one of the primary reasons I stuck with Apple when I upgraded. Had I known it wouldn't bring the albums over, I probably wouldn't have bought another apple.
Is there any way to get all the work I've already done in organising my photos onto my new computer? Thanks for your help.

There is no way to see where he has been.
Go into Settings > General > Restrictions > Safari and turn it off. Then add the MacGruff browser from the app store. After that go back to Restrictions and turn off the ability to add apps.

I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
Also see this , -> Download past purchases
and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
Actually, no it does not tell you that.
FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.

No, an external drive will not always be mounted. If the drive goes to sleep, it can unmount, or it may unmount for other reasons. As Chris said, confim that the drive is mounted and active before launching iTunes.

Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive

How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive? I have an iMac with a 320gb internal HD that is full and I am replacing it with a 2tb internal drive. I have several external drives; 1 tb, 2tb and 3 tb. The 2 tb is being used for Time Machine. Do I have to buy an enclosure? If so, where would I get an inexpensive one?
I also want to partition the new internal drive for Windows, and I'm not sure how much space to use for that. I plan to use Windows to check my work in PowerPoint created on my Mac for clients on PCs.

Do you already have Time Machine making backups onto the 2TB drive? If so, after you get the internal drive replaced, boot up into the recovery partition (hold down ⌘R) and restore the latest Time Machine backup that you have onto the new internal drive.
I recommend always having two backups. I'd use SuperDuper to make a complete clone of your internal drive onto an external drive in addition to having the Time Machine backup.
Boot Camp is what is used to make partitions for Windows. How much space to allocate depends on how much space you expect Windows to use up based on how you plan to use it.
