How do I move or archive large numbers of old Sent mail messages?

I've created folders for past years Sent mail and tried moving my messages out of my Sent folder (for several accounts). They seem to move, but then I get a very basic error (with no details..): "34 messages could not be moved to the mailbox "2009 Sent -- On My Mac" An error occured while moving messages to mailbox "2009 Sent -- On My Mac"
I also get a similar error if I try to archive them. Admittedly I got WAY behind on doing this (they're from 09, 10, and 11), but there must be a way. I've tried selecting only a few months worth instead of the entire year and I still get the error. Is it an issue because they're from my Sent folder? Do I need to set up a special mailbox to move them to?
My goal is to get my Inbox and Sent boxes trimmed down.

I don't know what was happening but yesterday I went back and did the Export/Archive function and it ended up doing just as I expected, exporting the mailbox as an mbox format =finally!!! Not sure why it went haywire but all is fine now.

How can I move Acrobat 9 Pro from my old MacBook to a new one?

Hi there,
How can I move Acrobat 9 Pro from my old MacBook to a new one?
Thanks!

Hi cialbert,
Do you have the install media? If not, you can download Acrobat from here: Download Acrobat products | 9, 8 - Adobe. You'll need your Acrobat serial number (see Find your serial number quickly - Adobe).
Note, as well, that the licensing agreement allows you to activate the software on up to two computers. If you've already activated it on two computers, deactivate on one before installing on the new computer (see Activation & Deactivation Help).
I think that should take care of it! Please let us know if you need additional help.
Best,
Sara

HT4847 How can I move a back up from an old iPhone out of iCloud but not delete it?

How can I move a back up from an old iPhone out of icloud and onto my own storage device? I don't want to delete it, I just don't want to keep it in iCloud

Unfortunately you do not have direct access to iOS backs in iCloud.
I am not sure what you mean by:
It's locked with an enterprise (third party code)
Do you mean it is a corporate device and managed by Mobile Device Management software?
If so the IT department can reset the passcode.
Other than that, there is no third party iOS app that can lock the device at that level unless it is jailbroken and then no one here can help you.

How to do basic corrections to large numbers of images

I have to do basic corrections to large numbers of images that will be coming in separate
batches and which need to be kept in their separate batches. I cant mix them together.
Do I create a new catalog for each batch? What should I do, if anything with collections and
what is the fastest way to make basic corrections to hundreds of images? Some of the images
are similar but many are not.
Oh, I was also wondering if Lightroom can import through FTP or if I need to download the
images and then import them.
Thank you!

Hi Jim,
you need to understand what is happening or you can become very frustrated
That's for sure. I have found countless tutorials on how to do specific things and procedures in Lightroom but I wasnt able to find a macro or aerial view of what it does and how it works. Things like what is a catalog and if it mimics the file structure on the disk, if and when to have more than one catalog, where the catalog and collections files are stored and how to back them up, how to re-synchronize the catalog if you move things around with finder/explorer, etc.
I'm slowly piecing those things together by thinking and working backwards from all the more lower level tutorials. I keep thinking I want a "Missing manual" for moving from Finder and Bridge to Lightroom.
For instance, are you aware that in its default state Lightroom does not write any changes to the files?
And are you aware of how to change that? Are you aware that if you make that change there will be XMP files for every raw file that you worked on?
I knew that Lightroom doesn't normally save changes to the image files, it basically stores a history of the adjustments in a separate file and applies them to the original, kind of like adjustment layers in photoshop dont change the background layer. I think I read that if working with a dng file the history of adjustments is saved within the dng image file but I'm not sure about that. The xmp files are the same or similar to the ones that are created in ACR, I believe.
you really need to have a good working knowledge of the program in order to use it efficiently.
I dont expect to be very efficient at first. I'm thinking of this experience as on the job training and thanks to all of the internet resources available and people like you I think I'll be able to adapt to Lightroom fairly quickly.
I looked at the videos that you linked me to. Some of them I had found previously but it was good to view them again. I do that a lot, after I do some work I look back at books or videos I had previously studied and I normally get more out of it the second time.
Is there a way that you know of to improve a few hundred images more efficiently that selecting the most similar ones for a group adjustment and doing the rest individually? I have images that are under and over exposed, tilted and with various color casts :-(
I'm thinking about going to PDN Photo Expo over the next few days and taking retouching courses with Carrie Beene. Would you happen to be going?
Thanks,
Bob

I found this article some time ago when I was trying to help someone else in this same situation. This is a copy and paste from the website. The website is provided below for you to read before you try this.
Plug your phone into iTunes
Click setup as a new device
Immediately unplug your phone from the computer
Give it about 30 seconds and iTunes will give a message (I don’t remember the specific, but regarding you unplugging the device and it not completing)
Plug your phone back in
Viola! no restore occurred and you can access everything again
This computer has previously synced with an iPhone or another iOS device.

How can I move Adobe Acrobat Pro from my old laptop to my new one?

A few years ago I purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro. I recently purchased a new laptop. As such, I'd like to install Adobe Acrobat Pro on the new machine, however; I don't want to have to purchase it again. Does anyone know how I can move it from my old laptop to my new one?

I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.

How do I move all my settings from my old computer with Vista to a New one with Windows 7 ? I'm using V. 14.0.1 on both Systems

Hello All,
How do I move all my Settings & Bookmarks from my 5 year old Computer running Vista and Firefox V. 14.0.1 , to my New Computer with Windows 7 and also Firefox 14.0.1 ?
Thank you very much.

You can copy your Firefox profile from one computer to the other and continue working with almost no changes :)
[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
A really easy way to do this is the following:
#Click the Start button, type %APPDATA% into the search bar, press Enter (on your old PC)
#Right click on the Mozilla folder, copy to a thumb drive (or something you can use to transfer it to your new PC)
#Go to %APPDATA% the same way on your new computer
#If the Mozilla folder already exists, I'd either delete it or rename it
#Paste the Mozilla folder into the same place on your new PC
#then upgrade to Firefox 15
You can also use Firefox Sync. [[How do I set up Firefox Sync?]]
