  • How long does it take to transfer data from a PC to a Mac?

    Using Migration Assistant and I am transferring data from PC to IMac. Have no idea how ling this process should take. How long does it take to transfer data from a PC to a Mac?

    This may not be the best forum to get an answer.
    Depending on what is being/can be migrated it may be dependent on how much data is on the PC already.

  • How long does it take to transfer computers

    if i purchase a new macbook, how long does it take to transfer everything off my old mac?

    Using Migration Asisstant over WiFi (described below), it took me about 2 hours to migrate my 60GB from old to new Mac.
    You could speed this up using Ethernet if you choose.

  • How long does it take for a replacement phone to arrive

    I am sending away my iPhone 5c for repair today as the screen is detaching itself from the back of the phone, the battery is lasting 2 hours tops (even when on airplane mode, with all the apps closed)
    How long does a replacement usually take to arrive?

    Call Apple. Nobody here would know that. Apple does not participate in this forum.

  • How long does it take to transfer data from a time  machine back up?

    I am in the process of transferring my data from my time machine back up from my old mac to my new mac and this seems to be taking a long time.  What is everyone's experience for how long this takes?

    That does seem a tad excessive. What connection are you using? Ideal is firewire; Airport would be slowest (quite possibly as long as you say).

  • How long does it take to transfer files from Windows to Macbook Pro

    Hi guys
    I just got a macbook pro (not the one with retina display)
    I have all of my files on my windows and just started to set up my mac using the windows transfer program, but it is taking a really long time. The estimate time remaining jumps between 30-35 hours. This is over Wi-Fi. I have read that it is faster using an Ethernet cable, I think I have one that is pluged into connecting both computers, but it isn't speeding anything up.
    What should I do? I don't want to leave either computer on for such a long time. (is there anything I should put my Mac on so it doesn't overheat, its currently on a wood table).
    Should I stop it? I dont want to ruin anything on the computer so soon. If so, how do I do it. I had already started to transfer files earlier today but accidently closed the Mac, which stopped the process and couldn't restart it again, so I turned it off since I couldn't find anything on the screen to stop it.
    I have an external harddrive that was connected to my windows, would it be faster to hold the mac's power button, start the startup again and just connect the external harddrive?
    Please help. Thanks in advance.

    Wi-Fi is slowest. Wi-fi must fight interference and other environmental challenges that cables don't have to worry about at all.
    Cabled Ethernet would be much faster. If your Windows computer has Gigabit Ethernet, it could actually be faster than FireWire.

    I would only abort if there is a safe way to (like a visible Cancel button), otherwise you may lose data.
    Connecting the external hard drive to the Mac could work, but if the hard drive is formatted with the NTFS disk format, you must have extra software on your MacBook Pro that can read that. If the drive is formatted as FAT32, it should work since Macs can read (but not write to) that Windows disk format.

  • HT4137 How long does it take to transfer purchases?  I do not have that many.

    I am transferring purchases in iTunes and the process has now been over an hour.  I have 11.9 GB free on my phone, so there is not that much.  Please advise if I should stop and re start or continue to wait?

    Sounds like you should just cancel it. close iTunes, restart the computer and phone and try again

  • HT4859 how long does it take to backup your phone for the first time using icloud?

    I have never used Icloud before and now my phone wants to be resotred so I am trying to back everything up using Icloud it just dosent seem to be moving and it just continues to say estimated time ...

    Hello there jspin11,
    The amount of time that the iCloud backup will take depends on a few factors the 2 most important are the amount of data to be backed up, and the internet connection speed.
    I found a great resource for troubleshooting iCloud backups named iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3992.
    General information
    iCloud Backup requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet.
    Automatic backups occur when you've plugged in your iOS device, locked the screen, and have connected it to Wi-Fi.
    You can manually start a backup by tapping Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup (requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet).
    iCloud Backup will provide helpful information and status messages related to backups at the bottom ofSettings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    If automatic backups don't work as expected, test to see what happens when you start a manual backup by tapping Back Up Now at the bottom of the Storage & Backup screen.
    Backups and restores both take time, especially if you have a lot of data or a slow connection. Depending on the size of your data and the speed of your network, you may need to give more time than you expected to a backup or restore.
    Make sure you have at least 50 MB of free space available on your iOS device before you back up. If you have no space available on your device, iCloud Backup can fail in some cases. You can verify how much free space you have available on your iOS device in Settings > General > About.
    SettingsiCloud Backup settings are controlled on a per-device basis from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    To view Storage & Backup settings:
    Tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    Tap Manage Storage.
    Tap your device's name. From here you can:
    View the size of your backups and see the storage used by each app.
    Enable or disable Backup for each app.
    Delete Backups.
    Buy more storage.
    If you're out of iCloud Storage space, you can apply several solutions:
    Exclude Camera Roll and other large data from iCloud backups of your device by going to iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage and choosing your device.
    Remove some of the larger files on your device, such as large audio or video files, from your Camera Roll in order make more space.
    Remove existing Backups.
    Purchase more storage.
    For more information about managing and using the Storage & Backup settings, see this article.
    If an issue persists and you are not able to resolve it using the methods discussed in this article, contact iCloud Support for additional assistance.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • IPhone Restore: How long does it take?

    My iPhone needs to be restored. How long does it take to restore and then restore the iPhone from the backup?

    Hard to say, it depends on your iphone model, the data to back up and the number of apps installed adding their part of data to the backup.
    If you copy all the pictures from the camera roll before and delete the original files, it should be under one hour, close to 30min using a 3G. Also transfer your videos before you start.
    See what else is part of the backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

  • "How long does it take to do a dist-upgrade on your distro?"

    Yesterday there was a question in the USALUG.org "How long does it take to do a dist-upgrade on your distro?"
    This question was a good question, so I decide to make the ultimate test. I have a lot of computers standing here around, and remembered that on one of them was have already Archlinux installation. I was right, when I booted, the system check said me, that the system was 253 days not checked anymore. I got so excited that I forgot to check was it one of my 0.7.2 Gimmick or 0.8 Voodoo installations.

    After reboot the system loads all new applications with out any problem. Later I replaced the intel-video driver "xf86-video-i810 1.7.4-6" with the driver xf86-video-intel 2.2.0-2. No problems at all.

    definitely. By contrast, here's a regular upgrade on my debian box -- out of the blue it's having some problem with one of the packages, and it's turning into a regular recursive nightmare.

    It's so "delicate" and temperamental compared to the no-nonsense, straightforward approach of Arch. If one little thing is off, the entire system has a hissy-fit and won't do anything until you hunt the internet high and low searching for a solution, encountering all the debian hawks along the way who are ready to rip your head off at the first suggestion that debian isn't directly from god and could have a problem. Imo, Arch is the best linx distro hands down. Nothing else even comes close.

  • So how long does it take to load a 160GB iPod using the Convert Higher ...

    I have a 160GB Gen 5 that I bought when first released back in the day when they were $400. Through a number of changes, the most recent being the advent of the Convert Higher Bitrate Songs to 128bit AAC feature, I decided to look at what more music I could store. After all was said and done, I ended up with a bit of a disaster with cover art not being properly applied to the music being played. I decided to *restore the ipod* based on suggestions in the discussion boards, and equally important was following the hints and tips here.
    http://www.samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp
    The advice is especially important in very large library situations to ensure you have uniqueness in the albums you want to display. Hadn't really given it much thought until I had the ability to see the individual albums for the 40K songs on the iPod via the cover art view.
    Finally the point of the post...
    *So how long does it take to load a 160GB iPod using the Convert Higher Bitrate option now available in iTunes 9.1?* The specs on my computer are not highend by any stretch, but it's no slouch, and neither of the CPUs are ever pegged. At this point I've lost count of how much time it's taken, but the load is going on 3-4 days. With some breaks in between because I need to check each incremental load to verify there is no cover art corruption, correct bad tags and such, but for the most part the loading is visibly slow, and I'm sure the conversion is the cause. I'm not really complaining at this point, but there is clearly room for improvement. And of course unless there is a redo involved in which case I will get quite cranky.
    *I would like to hear the experiences of others.*
    Finally to lend a bit more credence to the performance concern, my 32GB iPhone 3GS for only about say 28GB of music takes about 24 hrs to load from a 2.2GHz dual core intel laptop, again using the convert higher bitrate option.

    With AC power adapter it takes 3-4 hours for a full charge. With the USB charger it takes 9-0 hours for a full charge. I am not happy with them removing the AC charger and other accessoreis at all. It's business but it still stinks.
    I know I would rethink my purchase but would most likely end up buying the Micro anyway

  • HT5071 After submission, how long does it take for a new book to appear in the iBook store?

    How long does it take for a new book to appear in the iBook store after you have submitted it successfully? I submitted a free book last night. No sign of it 6 hours later ... If the delay is because process are being followed, what ate they? Any ideas?

  • How long does it take for Apple to send the content code for a free upgrade to Mountain Lion?

    Has anyone managed to successfully receive the content code in their email for a free ugprade to Mountain Lion?
    I bought my MBP on 14 July so I qualified for the free upgrade. Went to the website and filled in the form along with my serial number about 2 nights ago. Still haven't received my content code yet. How long does it take? Should I be speaking to someone already? Who?
    Thanks.

    We are being advised it can take up to 72 hours !

  • Time machine migration, how long does it take?

    Im going to migrate to another mac using time machine, how long does it take (time machine/main hdd in the old mac was at about 700gb capacity)

    There is no way of determining that. The time is dependent on a number of different factors.
