  • How do you transfer ical data and address book from a mac back up to an ipad?

    I have a HD back-up from my mom's dead imac g5.
    I am sending her an iPad, and would LOVE to have here Address Book and iCal data so she has that all set up.

    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.

  • HT1848 How do you transfer purchases from an iOS device using the new iTunes (11?)?

    I've just updated iTunes to ver. 11 on my mothers new PC and I'm connecting her iPad up for the first time.  I can't see anything like the transfer purchases option that exsisted in the previous versions.  I've tried to eject and start again, but it's still not giving me the option like it used to when you connected a device for the first time.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    okay, should have serched a little more..  all I had to do was CTRL + b in my library to view the file menu, and under File -> Devices -> transfer purchases
    Please ignore this question!

  • 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.

  • How do I transfer mini dv tapes from a Sony videocamera to my macbook?

    How do I transfer mini dv tapes from a Sony videocamera to my macbook?  Issues are: my macbook has no hdmi port, no firewire port, and Sony does not support streaming USB between its mini dv tapes and Macs.
    Only available ports on my macbook
    I've been told I need an "external firewire capture card" to basically give my mac some semblance of firewire ability.  But no one so far can tell me definitively 1) what product to purchse and 2) that it actually works.
    I have had some tapes converted by Costco to dvd but those do not work - they are in an uneditable dv format.  I want to import the tapes to digital format in order to edit and create new video from them.
    Thanks!

    If you have tried all the Google search suggestions including the YouTube tutorials, then it's time to contact Sony tech support.  Or post in the iMovie forum area. 

  • How best to save VHS tapes to DVDs using a Mac ?

    I have over 30 VHS tapes, eight Hi-8 tapes, and a player for both formats.   Would like to make DVDs of these movies.   There are a few USB adapters (Elgato Video Capture for $100, KWorld DVD Maker 2x for $28)  and Roxio makes Easy VHS to DVD 3 Plus for $60.  Have looked through AV forums on other websites and the directions are not concise, and are aimed at the PC platform.   Prefer to use a Mac.
    What is the fastest, easiest, and best way to save these VHS tapes to DVDs using a Mac ?

    Frank Caggiano wrote:
    Are you sure neither player has a digital output? FireWire would be the most likely connector on that type of equipment.
    Both VHS & Hi-8 are analog tape formats so it is extremely unlikely that VHS players or Hi-8 camcorders would have built-in analog to digital converters. That's why you need a product that includes a hardware A-D converter like the three mentioned by the OP.
    Roxio's Easy VHS to DVD 3 product is for Windows -- there is no software compatible with OS X included. The Easy VHS to DVD for Mac product does include OS X compatible software but it gets poor reviews at Amazon, has apparently not been updated in some time, & the support page for the product has some "page not found" links suggesting Roxio isn't currently supporting the product very well.
    The KWorld DVD Maker comes with a software driver for its A-D converter, which apparently uses a Empia 28xx family chipset. According to this that driver will not work with recent OS X versions, but for $30 one can purchase the VideoGlide driver to solve that problem. The KWorld product does not include OS X compatible editing software; for that you use iMovie (& presumably Toast or iDVD or something else) to burn the movies to DVDs. That makes the price about the same as the Roxio solution but complicates support because hardware & software are coming from different companies.
    The Elgato Video Capture product should be compatible with most OS X versions (but I could not find anything specifically about at beyond the typical "10.5 & above" kind of comment which may or may not mean it supports 10.8 or 10.9) but it captures to H.264/MPEG formats only, so like the KWorld you still need something to convert that to MPEG 2 to burn the captures to a standard DVD.
    So basically, there is no easy "one step" method to transfer VHS (or any of the other analog video formats) to DVD's. Depending on the version of OS X in use, it should be fairly easy to convert the analog source material to a digital format that can be used with iTunes, iMovie, etc., but editing it & particularly burning that to a DVD that will play in a regular DVD player will take more work.

  • How do you transfer voice memos from your phone to computer

    How do you transfer voice memos from your phone to computer

    Is it possible to transfer a voice memo to my computer and then convert that to text that can be printed?
    Here is my problem. I study harbor seals and have always taken hand written notes that then must be typed into the computer when I get home from an observation. Is there any way I can dictate what I see to a voice memo and then have that translated to text. If there is which would do it best an iphone or ipad (I have neither, just a tracphone for an emergency).
    Perhaps this is asking too much from the technology available but it would be a great help if I could do this.
    Thanks for any help you can give!
