How do I transfer content in Dashboard Stickies from one Mac to another?

I've got a new MacBook Air and because the hard drive on it is smaller than the hard drive on the MacBook Pro I had before, I've opted not to use Migration Assistant. But I have a good bit of content in Dashboard Stickies. Does anyone know how I can transfer this content to my new Mac? Where is this information stored?

Copy this file from the old Mac to the new one:
~/Library/Preferences/widget-com.apple.widget.stickies.plist
Be sure that Dashboard isn't running when you copy the file onto your new Mac.

  • How can I transfer contents of hard drive from one iMac to another,

    Hi
    I have two iMacs (older G3 CRT) both are running OSX 10.2.8.
    I want to copy the contents of the hard drive on iMac "A' to the hard drive of iMac "B". Can I do this,,, How can this be accomplished ??

    Hi Everyone
    Ok,,, here is my update, I was able to download finally Carbon Copy Cloner, but it will not even launch because the BSD module is missing on my iMac #1, it seems that I need to install this file from the original OSX disk which happens to be at work. OK, then I tried SuperDuper, it installed fine, then I read the instruction PDF, but when I went to make the copy onto the iMac #2, ( I did start it in Firewire mode, connected it via firewire to iMac #1
    and the drive mounted fine on the desktop) BUT for some reason Super Duper won't allow the copying of files.
    SO< then I stupidly just copied the entire contents of the hard drive on iMac #1 to the hard drive of iMac #2, which was mounted on the desktop of iMac #1. Then when all the files copied, I ejected the mounted drive, disconnected the Firewire cable and started imac #2, But iMac #2 would not boot up, I repaired it's disk permissions by once again starting in Firewire wire mode and using the disk utility on iMac #1 to repair the mounted drive of iMac #2), Then I disconneted the cable and started iMac #2, but still no boot up, just the little flashing file icon.. I also reset the PRAM on startup but still nothing. Any ideas, I can wait until Monday and do a clean install of OSX from my original disk, but was hoping there was something I can until then. And, of course, I;m still seeking a solution to getting all the programs, dats amd files from the hard drive on iMac #1 copied over to iMac #2,,, Any other ideas would be appreciated.<br>

    How do I transfer an Itunes gift card from one account to another ? I do not remember my password or know my security questions.

    You can't do it yourself. If you've just redeemed it and not spent any of it then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can move it the other account : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • How can i transfer a iphoto book created on one mac to another mac.

    how can i transfer an iphoto book created on one mac to another mac. i am aware of pdf saving but it doesn't help! need to see the iphoto book on other mac.
    and how can i view in slide-show double pages instead of single pages?
    anybody has an idea?

    Stephan:
    If you want to be able to view the book with iPhoto on the other Mac you'll have to copy the library containing the book to the other Mac. You won't be able to import that book into the other library.
    Make a duplicate copy of the library containing the book and rename the folder "Book Library". Open it with iPhoto and delete all of the files that are not in the book. Then copy the Book Library folder to the other Mac and open. You can also burn the Book Library folder to a CD as a way to archive the book in case you decide to order another copy at a later date. I create a separate library for each book I create and order and archive it to CD when I've ordered.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How can I transfer entire contents of Mail mailbox from one Mac to another?

    I've long wondered how to do this:
    I have two Macs - an iMac and a MacBook Pro.
    I have categorized several hundred emails on the MacBook into a separate "mailbox" by itself. Let's just call it "Project XYZ emails" for the sake of discussion.
    I need to transfer ALL of those emails +en masse+, hopefully still categorized together into a separate "Project XYZ emails" mailbox file, from the MacBook to the iMac. How is this done?
    In the old days, when I used to use Eudora, this was quite simple -- one could physically locate the separate desired "mailbox" file in the Finder and just copy it from one hard drive to the other, and then place the mailbox into the appropriate place of Eudora's file structure on the second computer. Relaunch Eudora and voila, the new mailbox is there for viewing, etc.
    But in Mail, I can't find any tangible "file" on my hard drive that represents a "mailbox" in the Mail program. And that includes control-clicking the application file itself and choosing "Show Package Contents." When I do that, I can see, after burrowing into the folders, a single large file called "Mail" which I think contains ALL mailboxes lumped together. But I can't see a way to separate them for individual manipulation.
    Any suggestions or ideas on how to copy entire mailboxes in Mail from one Mac to another?

    Thanks! Seems to have worked.
    Once I imported tham, I had to fiddle around renaming mailboxes and "moving" the emails to the desired locations, but that only took a minute. So overall, seems like that's the solution! I only wish that the steps to do this were made clearer by Apple in the Mail "help" menu -- where I couldn't find any mention of how to do this.
    A happy ending, in any event.
    In case anyone reads this in the future, let me add in the missing steps, to make it perfectly clear:
    In Mail, choose 'archive mailbox' from the mailbox menu.
    +Copy the newly created archived mailbox file, which will probably be a file with the suffix ".mbox," from the original machine to the second machine.+
    On the second machine: In Mail choose 'import mailbox' from the file menu.
    +The emails will now appear in a new mailbox in Mail listed under the name "imported" or "import." If desired, either rename the mailbox, or create a new mailbox with the correct name, and "move" all the emails into it.+
    Done!

  • How do you move Compressor 3.05 settings from one Mac to another?

    How do you move settings from one Mac to another?
    I have Compressor 3.05 installed on two Intel Macs: a MacPro tower and a MacBook Aluminum. I created a new setting on the MacBook, and can see it in Library -> App Support -> Compressor as "<name>.setting" Then I moved to the Mac Pro for speed and created a few more settings. I copied these settings from the Mac Pro libary and put them in the MacBook library; restarted Compressor on the MacBook but still cannot see those presets from within Compressor. I hate to re-create all those settings, but I do move between both computers depending on what I am doing.
    What am I missing? Thanks.

    To copy single settings.
    1. Drag & Drop your setting from the Compressor Settings window to i.e. the desktop
    2. Copy .setting file to an other Mac
    3. Drag & Drop the .setting file(s) over to the Settings window in Compressor
    To copy settings groups (folders)
    1. Go to */Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support/Compressor*
    2. Copy the settings group folder you want to your i.e. the desktop
    3. Make sure Compressor is not open on the other Mac
    4. Copy the settings group folder to the same location on the other Mac
    5. Open Compressor
    Hope this helps

  • Can anyone tell me how to save a project in i-movie from one Mac to another? Thanks

    Can anyone tell me how to save a project from one Mac to another I can save and copy 'events', but the 'projects' won't open, thanks

    Hi
    iMovie'08 - NO - Projects can not be moved - As far as I know
    You need iMovie'09 or 11 where both Events and Projects can be moved.
    DO NOT move or alter any folder named
    • iMovie Projects - or -
    • iMovie Events
    on DeskTop/Finder - Else they will not work and in some cases it is un-repairable !
    Moving has to be done inside iMovie Application.
    AND You need an in between storage eg an external hard disk and here are an IMPORTANT MUST
    • it MUST BE Mac OS Extended formatted - UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange will not work FOR VIDEO
    • Should be a FireWire one - As USB/USB2 performs badly especially when filling up and when editing HD-video.
