Trying to transfer bookmarks from one hard drive to another. Did not have time to back up before swap-in, and cannot run old hard drive as master (new computer is a Dell). What can I do?

Don't have anymore to add. Unsure of steps necessary. Computer does, however see and access old drive when set up as a slave, with the newer HD as the master.

I can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name

can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name. My original external has an error and needs to be reformatted but I dont want to lose this informations its my entire Itunes library.

Sounds like the source drive is formatted as case sensitive and the destination drive is not. The preferred format for OS X is case insensitive unless there is a compelling reason to go case sensitive.
Why can't you change the filename? Is it because the source drive is having problems? If so is this happening with only one or two or a few files? If so the best thing would be to copy those over individually and then rename them on the destination drive.
If it is more then you can do manually and you can't change the name on the source you will have to reformat the destination as case sensitive.
Btw this group is for discussion of the Support Communities itself, you;d do better posting to Lion group. I'll see if a host will move it.

How to migrate mail system from one hard drive to another under 10.6.8 in a macpro

how do you migrate mail settings, calendar information, etc from one hard drive to another under 10.6.8 in the same computer? Migration Application does not show this option. It shows from an old computer to another, etc.

You have to install the OS onto the new HD and then use the setup assistant on first boot to migrate from the original HD.

How to switch Organizer catalog from one hard drive to another?

As far as a little background, i have just finished two high definition projects in Premiere Elements, the last one being 73 projects combined into 6 blu rays. It had completely filled up my 1TB hard drive, so i have purchased an additional 2TB internal hard drive, in hopes of being able to switch all my photoshop to the larger internal hard drive. I am also archiving the old stuff as i finish each project to an external hard drive to free up space.
But i am PETRIFIED at the possibility of trying to move my Elements Catalog because of all the stories i have heard about having the majority of the photos needed to 'reconnect' after switching it to an external hard drive and I assume the same thing will happen to me if i move it to another internal hard drive???????   I have had several computer smart gentleman who have often helped me out when i had a problem and one refused to even venture how to successfully move the catalog and other guy's suggestion is to backup the entire Catalog and then restore it on the new drive.   Steve Grisetti said this morning on his webpage that i should cut and paste the file from one drive to the other but not quite sure how easy that is going to be, because when i have searched out the "move' option, it does not allow me to do anything there. Could that be because i have files that need to be 'reconnected' first before i could accomplish that 'move.'    Steve suggested i come over to this Forum to get some opinions, which is what i have done. That sounds like being more complicated than just cutting and pasting one folder with 16,000 photos. What is the safest way to accomplish this without losing anything, and avoiding the need to 'reconnect' 16,000 files which i am not looking forward to.
So that is my first and foremost question about the Elements Organizer, but i do have some other related problems with the 'reconnect' problem, some of which i have figured out, but not completely. After finally completing these two big projects, my next goal was to clean up my files, get things organized better, and i seem to be finding more and more problems to address. The list of problems decreases with each project but i am still able to find new ones. I am not a computer whiz, and probably shouldn't be trying to accomplish what i am doing with the basic Photoshop programs, something i know the majority of you would be using other more advanced Photoshop programs and much more easily, but i am starting to get this program down, and i don't need more challenges right now.
So i have 3 additional concerns and questions if anyone can help me out to prevent future problems with the next high definition project for Premiere Elements to burn onto blu rays.
1. Because i ran out of space totally on my old internal hard drive, i set up a temporary file on the new drive for the blu ray projects, and I was able to finish the remaining mpeg2s for the final 2 blu rays from Premiere Elements. But when i finished, i started to clean up the files, and realized that the catalog was not recognizing any of the mpeg2 files that i had used to assemble the first 4 blu rays, which was the time i set up the new file on the new internal hard drive, and had copied and pasted my blu ray files. It all seemed to go well, and i was able to finish the final 20 something projects and 2 final mpeg2s for the final blu rays which i prepared and burned on Sony DVD Architect. . But when i went back and was looking at the final mpeg2 files for the previous 4 blu rays, they all needed to be 'reconnected', and i assume it was because the last 2 were on a different drive. And after some effort, i was able to reconnect everything i think successfully. And i am assuming that this will not continue to be a problem if i can get the entire Catalog on the same hard drive. So write that one off to experience.
2. But i hadn't taken the time before doing the blu ray project to label my pictures completely, so the next project i started was renaming the filenames, which quickly presented a new problem, and that made for more 'reconnect' problems again for every picture that i renamed that was used in any of the Premiere Elements Project, so i was back to where i started but even worse off; however, the good news is that my photos were the best organized they ever have been. So all the mpeg2's on the catalog once again asked for 'reconnect' and came to the conclusion that it must mean any name change in the 'filename' also makes it not recognizable. With my first big Premiere Elements project which ended up with 4 blu rays, i made the very big mistake of organizing and moving files in windows, and that is problem #3. So i have come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter, but lots of effort is not obtainable, but i guess i am wondering if it was really worth saving in working condition anyway?? The good news is that the individual photos are fine for the most part, but it is all the mpeg2 files that i combined the original photos into 73 projects, making a mpeg2 of each, then combining about 10-15 of the mpeg2s together and adding music to it, and forming the final mpeg2 which is what i then prepared to burn to blu ray in Sony Architect Studio. The finished product is still present in the Sony Architect software, and i even burned a copy of them again to make sure that was possible, So my gut feeling is just to delete all the mpeg2 files in my organizer, and forget they were ever there! Does that make sense?????    I am not sure that i would ever use them again anyway, but what i am asking is obviously that something as simple as change in the filename screws up the catalog once again????? Yes, i have learned my lesson, and they will all be finalized with the filename ever before i start the next project. Just like with the first project, i learned to stay out of windows all together, and now i only use albums which i found no problems using at all.
3. Last problem is the oldest one, but one i still cannot solve. It was from the first blu ray project when i was doing stupid things like moving folders, and photos from one folder to another to make it better organized. And that was super-organized, and there was absolutely no need to change filenames!!!!! I have two separate problems. Some of the 'reconnects' do not have a picture but the gray square and the ?. I have been able to find most of the files that i had 'displaced' and have recovered them, and knew where they were, and were able to change file names, and it looks like they are back in the catalog. There was also a big file of photos that i found in a file that was the original download file for a given date which is how i NOW download my photos into Photoshop in the first place. But i have not been able to reconnect any of them successfully. They are there and i have renamed them, but the catalog still does not recongize them as being in the Catalog. The other group are photos where the picture shows in the catalog, but there is a ? to reconnect, but i cannot find the photos anywhere. These are of a trip of a once in a life time variety, so i have refused to just press delete, and i thought i had perhaps somehow deleted them all, but i have either found them in another file or the photo is present but i can't rename, i can't reconnect, and for all practical purposes they don't seem to be there. Any suggestions at all? Do i have any other options other than just to delete those whole period of my trip?
I am longwinded, but i wanted to try and give enough background information. The problem seems simple, but i just want to confirm the problems i have run into are for the reason i think they are, and any help on how to successfully move the catalog to the second internal hard drive will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any comments and or suggestions.

Thanks for your suggestions, i knew i had overdone it when i wrote the entire story. Just a couple direct questions based on your response!!
Just a couple of questions, i am assuming all the reconnection problems have to be taken care of either by connecting or deleting before the catalog can be moved. Correct?
The reconnect problems i have were not renamed outside of Photoshop, and the renaming does not seem to be an issue except for mpeg2s that are in the catalog that were used to generate the blu rays but i think it was me screwing things up when i didn't know better and was moving folders and photos in folders (Window type) .   Since the blu rays are in the Sony software complete and ready to reburn easily, i assume it would be okay to delete all those that are in the catalog, that need to be reconnected for whatever reason. Plus the individual photos of most of them are just fine. I am talking 376 'reconnect problems' counting all those mpeg2 files which are at least the majority of the 376. Probably would be nice to have, but is there any reason i have to keep them since the photos are okay and the blu rays are burned and still in the Sony Architect program intact?
What i don't understand is the important photos that are worth trying to save seem to be in the proper folder, which is what is stated in properties, but the photo is in the catalog, but with the ? and cannot do anything with it at all, without just going to reconnection, and when i try to identify the folder, it says it is empty, which those are NOT.   If it takes 'forever', then albeit, at least for these few pictures. I really don't want to delete those!
And is it possible to do what my computer tech is telling me that it will all transfer accurately and completely if we backup the entire catalog and then restore it to the new drive?. It seems like after i complete the reconnects one way or another, it might be an easier process that can be completed totally within Element?    Since the catalog is on c drive, i guess i can't do what you suggested buy why?
I kept to those tips you gave me. It seems like an impossibility to save these pictures, but these were from my very first efforts with Premiere Elements and blu rays. Other than the renaming the changing and affecting the Premiere Elements projects in the second one, i have no other problems, and have no recconect problems. So i guess i am moving in the right direction. I just don't need to keep finding ways to make more problems for myself.

3. Would it tranfer the program as well and also the hidden partition for the laptop.
To stbigham:
I went to the website for the given software and checked out its feature. My only question is would the software transfer the existing and hidden partition when it is moved to the new HD.

How do I transfer photos from one flash drive to another?

I downloaded original photos to several flash drives before I had enhanced them. I realized I needed to do that before I gave them to my family.
In Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 I fixed the photos and now I want to put them on the same flash drives without distroying the originals. I would appreciate knowing how to transfer the new photos to the flash drives without replacing the originals.

You should really have left them in My Pictures. If you use Explorer to drag files you corrupt the file paths in Organizer and end up with missing files.
It would be best to get the originals from your family and put them and the edits back into My Pictures.
You can then make duplicates for your family using my method above.
Edit - if dragging directly to the flash drive made duplicates then you should still have all the photos in My Pictures

Itunes library tranfer from one hard drive to another on the same computer

Hello I have two hard drives on my mac g4 and the first has 80gig and i only have 10 gig of memory left to fill in my ipod library so... I want to move the itunes library/song data from one hard drive to another, how do I do this? the ipod has the ability to hold 40gig of songs etc. so I know the main hard drive will be full before my ipod will be... I'm new to apple and have had a pc for several years but had too many problems with viruses and like what I've learned so far on my mac thanks for your help out there... you can email me at [email protected] thanks again for any help out there

For the record, hard drives don't hav ememory it is just storage space.
Anyway, in your user folder you would want to drag the Music folder to the other hard drive. Once that is finsihed copying in the iTunes preferences you would want to point iTunes to the new drive and folder for the music folder it should be using.

How do I transfer Adobe CC application from one hard drive to another?

I think you have to start Creative Cloud application, uninstall those CC applications from "Apps" panel, then click "Preferences..." menu item, select "Apps", change "Install Location" to another hard drive, then install those applications from "Apps" panel again.

In Final Cut Pro I was trying to move an Event Library from one hard drive to another as explained in the Help section. After doing so, I received a message that my event is already open with the same identifier as the new one I just created on the new disk. It says the second document cannot be opened and to move one of these documents out of your Final Cut Events folder. It also says to avoid this problem, copy events from within Final Cut Pro, but that is what I did in the first place. What should I do to avoid the double opening conflict?

How do I transfer music from old hard drive to Mavericks?

how do I transfer music from old hard drive to Mavericks?

You need only post once.
More information would help. The simplest answer is drag the files from the old drive to the iTunes window when you have the application open, or the Automatically Add To iTunes folder. If you mean the whole library that is a different answer.

How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.

Hi All,
         How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.
         Can i do it ebven if he tables are different in structure.
Please Advice.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Saket Tiwari,
I hope the earlier post by kashyap is good enough an answer. anywas in addition to it let me give a detailed
explanation of how you can populate an internal table.
1) Append data line by line.
     Syntax : APPEND [<wa> TO / INITIAL LINE TO] <itab>.
this appends new line to internal table <itab>.
2) Using COLLECT statement.
             COLLECT is another form of statement used for populating the internal tables. Generally COLLECT is used while inserting lines into an internal table with unique standard key. The syntax for COLLECT statement is as shown
     Syntax : COLLECT [<wa> INTO] <itab>.
3) Using INSERT statement
     Syntax INSERT [<wa> INTO / INITIAL LINE INTO] <itab> [index <idx>].
INSERT statement adds a line/work area to the internal table. You can specify the position at which the new line is to be added by using the INDEX clause with the INSERT statement.
Now coming to your request..
To append part or all of an internal table
     Syntax
              APPEND LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>] TO <itab2>.
*     Note:
Without the FROM and TO options, this statement appends the entire table <itab1> to <itab2>.*
b) To insert part or all of an internal table into another internal table
     Syntax
          INSERT LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>]
          INTO <itab2> [INDEX <idx>].
c) Using Move statement.
To copy entire contents of one table into another in one execution
     Syntax MOVE <itab1> To <itab2>.
               OR
          <itab1> = <itab2>.
but u hav to be careful because he contents of itab2 will eb overwritten on the execution of this statement.
These copy the contents of ITAB1 to ITAB2. Incase of internal tables with header line we have to use [] inorder to distinguish from work area. So, to copy contents of internal tables with header line the syntax becomes,
ITAB1[] = ITAB2[].
Coming to the letter part of your question, Yes, we can copy values between tables having different structures.
for this we use
                            MOVE-CORRESPONDING <itab1> TO <itab2>
    this executes the statement for their header lines. Searches for the sub-fields which occur both in itab1 and itab2 and then generates, for all relevant field pairs which correspond to the
        sub-fields ni , statements of the form MOVE itab1-ni TO itab2-ni. The other fields remain unchanged.
I hope the information provided has been of your help.
Reward if useful.
Regards,
Jose
