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

  • How can I migrate my junk-mail settings from one Mac to another?

    I would like to move my junk mail settings from one Mac to another. I found this article (https://kb.siteground.com/how_to_synchronize_the_junk_email_settings_in_mac_mail /), but can't locate the file indicated in the article, so I suspect that the article is out of date (though it's not dated).
    Both machines - MacOS 10.9.5; Mail 7.3.
    Any insights much appreciated!
    Best,
    Doug

    Make your user library visible and see if you can find it.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library.

  • How do you move adobe acrobat XI pro from one computer to another?

    how do you move adobe acrobat XI standard pro from one computer to another?

    Hi jeszamom,
    You'll need either the installation media (if you bought from a retailer), or a downloaded installer. If you don't have the CD, you can download Acrobat from this links in this document: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - Adobe.
    It's OK to keep it on the other computer; your license allows you to install it on up to two computers. But, if you'd like you can deactivate it on that old computer, which would free up that activation for use on yet another computer. Please see Activation & Deactivation Help - Adobe
    You'll need your serial number to activate on the new computer.
    Please let us know how it goes.

  • How do I move control of my ATV from one Mac to another in the same house?

    I have two iMacs in the office. I have ATV2 on my flat screen TV. I want to move control of ATV from one iMac running Snow Leopard to to the other running Lion, because of more and better content. Not sure how to accomplish this. Thanks for any help you can lend.

    Ok I understand that but my ATV only appears in the left control column of one iMac and not the other. Not the one I want to control it with.

  • Can you move a software raid 1 from one mac to another

    I have a 2 disc software raid 1 on my powermac and I want to move it to my mac pro. Does anyone know if I can do this?

    It appears that in Mac OS X 10.4, and again in the transition to 10.7, RAID format may have undergone dramatic changes. If you are trying to move a RAID array across those boundaries, you may not have the best results moving the drives directly.

  • How can I move the ODI Work Repository from one server to another server?

    How can I move the ODI Work Repository from one server to another server?

    Hi,
    If you would like to move your source models, target models and project contents from Work repository 1 to another work repository.
    I.e. Dev. server to Prod Server.
    1. Firstly, replicate the master repository connections i.e. with same naming conventions manually
    2. Go to Dev. Server work repository -> File Tab -> Click on Export work repository (save it in a folder)
    3. After exporting, you can view the xml files in the folders.
    4. Now, Open the Prod. server and make sure you already replicated mas. rep. details.
    5. Now, right click on model and import source model in synonym mode insert_update (select source model from the folder where your xml file located)
    6. Similarily, import again target then Project.
    Now, check. It should work.
    Thank you.

  • How to transfer printer settings from one Mac to another (both OSX)?

    Hello, I have not found a detailed description on how to transfer printer settings from one Mac to another.
    My issue is that I have a Mac G5 with 3 different settings saved as "presets" for the same printer. This works great, since the posters I print (on the large format printer) need different margins and different paper at times.
    This G5 is basically retired and only used for printing. G5 has OSX 10.3.9
    I have a MacPro as its replacement (OSX 10.4.11).
    The MacPro has all my apps and other settings setup to my liking.
    I found several links via Google saying copy this folder or directory, but I am not sure I did it correctly. I don't see the "presets".
    I tried launching the Migration Assistant (I hope that's the correct name), but was concerned the settings on the new MacPro would be overwritten with ALL the old stuff on the older G5. I did not start the transfer process because of this.
    If someone would list the steps needed to accomplish the transfer of printer settings or advise if this is possible, then I would be very grateful! The previous user of the G5 I am using was a "Genius" and I don't know how he created these "preset" choices.
    Thanks!

    Hi SCChelpdesk, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    I found several links via Google saying copy this folder or directory, but I am not sure I did it correctly. I don't see the "presets".
    This is the File that holds that info on Tiger, not certain on Panther...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.print.custompresets.plist
    After moving, you very well might have to change the Owner's Permissions within Get Info window, then log out/in.
    I tried launching the Migration Assistant (I hope that's the correct name), but was concerned the settings on the new MacPro would be overwritten with ALL the old stuff on the older G5. I did not start the transfer process because of this.
    MA would transfer the info, but/and, if the user that had that info had the same Shortname as on the new one, it'll demand you give it a new Shortname to use... but then those settings would be transferred to that new user on the new machine. I think the 1st one will work though.
    The previous user of the G5 I am using was a "Genius" and I don't know how he created these "preset" choices.
    We can go through that way if you like... not all that hard.

  • Can i copy my settings from one mac to another?

    Hi
    Since I had a problem with my Mac's drive that suddenly failed (I am able to read ONLY), I replaced the internal HD with my emergency HD that I had backedup a few months before. I would like to know if there's a way to copy my settings from one mac to another? Is there a specific folder for all apps or do I have to find out each and every single file for each app?
    I need the settings for
    System (view, font, color,)
    Finder (view, etc)
    iTunes (that include all library, playlists, etc),
    Firefox (Bookmarks, settings & plug-ins),
    Safari (Bookmarks, settings & plug-ins),
    Address Book (contacts)
    Thuderbird (emails accounts, contacts, passwords, etc)
    Stickies (stickies on the dock - i have info on there unsaved)
    Filezilla (FTP infos)
    Would appreciate.
    Thnx.

    All that info is found in your user/library folder, I just did a 60 machine rollout and copied all those settings from user/library, just be forewarned that if you upgrade software those setting will not take on the machine, for example Adobe CS 3,4 will not usable by CS5.  let us know if you need more help.  Also make sure you copy most of your preferences in the user/library/prefences folder.
    Note: If you are using an identical backup with all apps and user settings, you can just copy all folders from user to your new home folder.  Remember that only if the image or backup is identical to your production OS.

  • How do I move a contact or contacts from one group to another group?

    How do I move contacts from one group to another group on my iPhone?

    Hi ,
    In exchange you cannot have the same email address for multiple recipients .
    First and Best way is  to remove the email address from the old user account and add the same smtp address to the new user who is going to take his place.
    Second option would be forwarding all the emails from old user account to new user account when an email was triggered to the email address ([email protected]) .on this case there is no need to remove or delete the email address from the old user account
    and also email address ([email protected]) will still reside on the old user account .
    If i am at your place i will choose the first option and i agree with DJ

  • How do I move a proxy/alias address from one user to another?

    We have a user that is leaving the company, we'll call her Clerk.  She has her normal email address ([email protected]), but she also uses a proxy address or alias ([email protected]).  The new user taking her place will have the same setup, her normal
    first intial, last name email account, but I also need her to use the [email protected] proxy address.  When I try to move it from one user to the other, it says that it is already being used by the original user.
    Is there a way to move the alias to the new user without deleting the old user's account, which the new user will still need to access from time to time?

  • How do I move an instance of CC from one machine to another?

    I use Adobe CC on two machines, my machine at home and the one I have as part of my job. I understand that this is the total number of machines allowed. However, I am considering leaving my current job and so i want to delete the Adobe CC programs from the work machine and possibly use the membership on another machine.
    Is there anything I need to do to make sure I dont run into to problems?

    Hi [email protected],
    Welcome to Adobe Forum,
    Since the number of activation is limited to two, so you need to deactvate the CC from the office computer, to deactivate, you will have to launch any CC product for e.g Photoshop CC, then click on help & sign out.
    Choose Help > Sign Out [Your Adobe ID].
    Note: you can refer : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html#de activate-problem
    This will keep the activation count to 1 & you can reinstall it from www.creative.adobe.com on another computer.
    Let us know if it helped you.
