How do you transfer Safari bookmarks to a new MAC?

I have a G4 Tower (Jaguar) but just got an iMac G5 (that will be Tiger). How do I transfer my Safari bookmarks to my new MAC? THX, Barb

Your new iMac has a feature as part of the setup to migrate all your existing user settings (and applications if you wish) from your G4 (you connect the two systems using a Firewire cable), so that's probably the easiest way.
If you just want the Safari bookmarks, though, and nothing else, they're in your users' Library -> Safari folder, the file names Bookmarks.plist. Just copy that file to the same folder on your new iMac.
Hope this helps.

    how do i transfer safari bookmarks from an iphone 4s to a new iphone 6 plus?

    All you need to do is make a backup of your iPhone 5, either in iCloud or iTunes and then restore your new iPhone 6 to that backup. When you say you are getting this message about Find My iPhone, have you set that up already in the new phone? Importing photos from the iPhone to the computer does not require Find My iPhone, just an import utility on the computer, depending on your computer OS.

    Do you mean you want to sync your desktop Safari bookmarks to iOS? This is done in iTunes when you sync the iOS device. There is a box to check to make this happen.

    When using i cloud on my i phone, how do you transfer contacts and pictures to new i phone?

    Sync your contacts, calendar and other data on your old phone with your iCloud account by turnining sync on in Settings>iCloud.  Then back up your old phone to iCloud.
    When setting up your new phone, restore it from the backup of your old phone.  Then sign into your iCloud account and turn on your data syncing and your contacts, calendars and other synced data will appear on your new phone.

    how do you transfer contacts  from iphone to new ipad?

    "Paired"?  I think you are saying you were trying to use Bluetooth to do this transfer.  That will not work.
    Instead, try one of these two methods:
    1.  Use iCloud to contain the contacts.  Then set both the iPad and iPhone up to reference the iCloud contacts.
    2.  Sync the iPhone using iTunes on your computer.  Then sync the iPad using the same iTunes.
    (This may or may not work depending on what you use to house the contacts.)

  • How do you sort safari bookmarks

    How do you sort bookmarks in safari? Why does apple not allow you to do this?

    Hi,
    You can manage your Bookmarks anyway you like.
    Start here.  http://www.cultofmac.com/how-to-manage-safari-bookmarks-efficiently-macrx/35616
    If you want to alphabetize a Bookmark folder just move it to your Desktop. The Finder will automatically alphabetize the list of Bookmarks for you then just drag it back to the Safari window.

  • How do you transfer a single playlist from one mac to a new macbook?

    I've just bought a new Mac Pro and would like to transfer a single playlist of mine from an iMac iTunes library to my own iTunes library without any of the other music in the library that is not on my playlist... any help?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload. Sign in and authorize the computer to your account before syncing.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

  • How do you transfer my library to a new pc.

    How do I Transfer my whole library to a new PC.
    I synced the Ipad2 to the new computer and the music transferred to the PC but not the Apps

    I assume that you have authorized the new PC for iTunes content ...iTunes>Store>Authorize this Computer ...from the iTunes menu at the top of the screen.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
    You can transfer the apps this way as long as they are still on your iPad.
    Connect your iPad to your new PC and launch iTunes. Before you sync - right click on the device name on the left hand side of the iTunes window and select Transfer Purchases from the pop up contextual menu. The apps will transfer to the iTunes library. You can also select this option by going to the iTunes menu at the top of the screen and go to File>Transfer Purchases.
    If you still have the old PC the best way to do this would be to backup your iTunes library and restore it to your new PC. This is pretty interesting and you can take a look at this.

    Intel Macs shipped with 10.4.4 or later. Quark 6.5 is incompatible with them
    as Versiontracker says it works with 10.3 and 10.2 only. Quark 6.5.2 on the other hand is at least PowerPC compatible with 10.4, so it may work with Intel Macs under Rosetta:
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/31408
    Adobe InCopy 3.0.1 was part of CS 1, Adobe InCopy 4.0.1 was CS2.
    Looking up InCopy 3.0.1, it also says that it only works with 10.2 or 10.3.
    Also Adobe's CS 2 doesn't work with Version Cue on Intel Macs. You need to remove this before running Adobe CS 2 on Intel Macs. Looks like CS 1 is not compatible with Intel Macs.
    Please put forward future inquiries regarding 10.4 software compatibility to new topics posted in the Using Tiger forum:
