How do I replicate my software and data my from current Mac desktop to my new Mac laptop?

Connect the two with a Firewire cable: Transferring files between two computers using FireWire. Boot the old computer into Target Disk Mode. Start the new computer normally which should take you to the Setup Assistant if this is the first time you've started it. Use the option in Setup Assistant to transfer data from the old computer.
If this is not the first time you've started the new computer then use Migration Assistant in the Utilities folder to transfer your data.

  • HT2486 HOw do I transfer contact numbers and email address from my Mac to my new iphone?

    How do I transfer contact numbers and email address from my Mac to my new iphone?

    Connect your iPhone 4S to your Mac using the iPhone’s USB cable, and then use iTunes to transfer your contacts from to the iPhone. (An alternate way is to use iCloud.)
    I’m not sure what you mean by “transferring email address” from the Mac to the iPhone. But if you mean you want to access your email from the Mac and the iPhone, the best way is to configure your email account over IMAP in Mail on both devices.

  • Mail. How can I copy the sender and date info from the Header like I used to do in Lion?

    I used to find it very useful to drag and highlight all the info in the header of the email including sender, cc, date, subject etc to be able to paste in into other docs as reminders of who sent what when. Now I have to do 2 copy/pastes. Not a deal killer but makes my life just that little bit more unnecessarily complicated.

    There is usually a toolbar button in the editor to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
    You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
    If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.<br />

  • How do you transfer Several files and numerous photos from one Mac to another.

    I have a Mac Book Pro (late 2011) and a Mac Air (2013).   I know I can airdrop but I would be doing that for days - is there any way to transfer file from one computer to another. 

    If you want to transfer a large amount of files, the best way would be to use an external drive. If you do not have one, consider the option of using Target Disk mode, so you just have to get a Thunderbolt cable; this is the fastest option.
    To use Target Disk mode, connect the Thunderbolt to the MacBook Air and the MacBook Pro. Then, start up your MacBook Pro and hold the T key while it is starting up until you see the Thunderbolt icon in the display. Now, go to the MacBook Air, open a Finder window and you will see the MacBook Pro hard drive in the sidebar, so access to them and transfer the files you want to.

  • Hi i just got a new mac pro and i wanted to know how to transfer all my music from my old desktop to my new mac?

    hi i just bought the macbook pro and i wanted to know how i can transfer all my music on itunes from my old desktop to my new macbook?

    Derek's right. To explain his second point more, you can mount your old Mac's hard drive on your new one and once you've done this you can simply drag your music folder over.
    You can mount various ways, if you have a router and both are on your LAN network I believe u use the Go menu in your new Mac to mount your old one.
    You can also use a cable directly between the two. I did this years agonwith ethernet but I bet USB or even FireWire is possible.
    Once you get your music copied over, you may need to add your music into your Mac's iTunes.
    Open iTunes and then select Add to Library and then find your music folder to add. You can add single songs or folders of songs or your entire folder of all songs.

  • Sync Address to Contacts and Date to Calendar on my desktop software?

    How can I sync Address to Contacts and Date to Calendar on my desktop software?  Entered info before I discovered that sync to TX only syncs Contacts & Calendar. Thanks!
    Post relates to: Palm IIIc

    Hello!
    The palm desktop application uses Contacts and Calendar fields BUT really its the conduits in your hotsync manager that needs attention.  First be sure to install the Palm Desktop found on your Palm TX CD for it will have both the Calendar, Contacts, Memos, and Tasks conduits also the DateBook, Address, To Dos, and Memo Pad conduits.  The software should be able to identify which of these sets of 4 your device has and use the respected conduits to sync the data to Calendar and Contacts fields in Palm Desktop by just doing a hotsync.  Now in this case be sure to keep different user profiles for each device.  Are you tring to migrate data from Palm IIIc to the Palm TX?  Keep me posted.

  • Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2?  If yes, then how?  I have the software and one more load opportunity left.

    Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2?  If yes, then how?  I have the software and one more load opportunity left.
    Reason that I ask is that I'm worried that I will not be able to read or work word or excel docs that people send me.

    No. Office 2011 for Mac is coded to run with OS X. In order to work on the iPad the app must be coded for iOS instead.
    If you look in the iTunes App Store, you will find that there are many apps that allow you to work with Office files on an iPad.

  • How can i add the dimensions and data loading into planning apllications?

    Now please let me know how can i add the dimensions and data loading into planning apllication without manuallly?

    you can use tools like ODI or DIM or HAL to load metadata & data into planning applications.
    The data load can be done at the Essbase end using rules file. But metadata changes should flow from planning to essbase through any of above mentioned tools and also there are many other way to achieve the same.
