How Much Control Do You Hove Over Migration Assistant?

I am finally getting around to installing Leopard and plan to do an Erase and Install to a partition on my firewire external drive and tinker with things over there before copying that image via SuperDuper to my iBook. In the meantime I can continue using Tiger for my day to day activities without interruption.
How much control do I have over what Migration Assistant moves? I definitely want to move my documents photos and music, but because I have a corrupted user account and at least one broken app (QuickTime - I've tried fixing this numerous times without success and I'm tired of messing with it), I don't want to move either the affected account or the broken apps, which are in all accounts, because I would just be replicating these problems in Leopard. Obviously reinstalling all of the app because of a couple that are messed up is a little extreme, but this also gives me a chance to eliminate those apps I'm actually not using on a regular basis.
Also I will always have a SuperDuper backup of my latest Tiger image to refer to as I boot into Leopard for some shakedown testing.

Migration Assistant doesn't give you THAT much flexibility. you can choose to migrate whole user accounts and/or all applications. if you want finder control you have to migrate things by hand. use this post as a guide

  • How much sound can you send over TC?

    I know you can send sound from itunes, but what software do you need to send as much other sound over TC?
    I want to use sounds from both games, safari, itunes, logic pro and vlc without an annoying delay if thats pussible?

    +and how does that app handle latency?+
    That depends on your network, not on the application. This is the only application that I'm aware of that will stream all audio on your computer, so you don't have a lot of choice here.
    If you find other applications, please post back.

  • How do I get rid of the hover description on the taskbar? Like when you hover over Firefox and it shows the title of the website you're on. It gets in the way of gaming.

    I'm a gamer and I play in windowed mode, and every now and then this gets in my way of playing. It's super annoying and I have to either close out Firefox or move my taskbar to the top, which isn't optimal.
    I'd like to be able to play in windowed mode, with a browser open if I so need, without accidently hovering over it and causing this stupid tooltip to block the spells I need to use.
    http://i55.tinypic.com/10e25xe.jpg
    That's what I'm talking about.
    I use Windows 7.
    I've disabled the thumbnail previews.
    All other taskbar icons have the registry edit that extends hover time so that I have to hover for a long time for it to display, so it's fine.
    I've tried the Firefox about:config where I disable the browser.chrome thingy and those things related to that.
    Is there any way to get rid of this display that when you hover over the web browser it tells you the name of the page you're on?

    Wade and Monica,
    Thanks for your help.
    Wade, it hit me when you asked "why is it a png" file and I realized that I was using the wrong file.  Sometimes its hard to see the forest for the trees!  Problem for banner artwork fixed and I have now used the correct logo file so no more dotted line.
    The dotted line only appears on the the png version of the logo.  There's no coloured background on the logo file.  She gave me the file as both an eps and a png file. I'm pretty sure she created the logo in Illustrator.  I've been using the png file for the website, which is what I thought it worked well for.  And the eps one for my print materials.
    I have no clue why I grabbed the png instead of the eps logo file I usually use, but thanks for pointing out the obvious since I wasted time trying to fix it and was getting very frustrated at what had suddenly gone "wrong".
    I still have that dotted line on the png file of the logo but I'll have to figure that out another day.
    Thanks again!

    In the out look , when you received an meeting request, we can see the organizer's email address, but when you hover over the email address it says "presence unknown" and didn't show any details of that email user.
    But i can see the contact search is in All Folder. when its in all folder  it doesn't show his contact. but when i change the search to default GAL LDAP i can see the mail user's details in the contact.

    Help me to change this.

  • How much time do you spent in Vocals Recording and Mixing?

    I would like to know, how much time do you spent in Vocals Recording and Mixing?
    I mean, you do doubles and then the are not that correct you record it again and maybe a third version and then you mix it, you cut and arrange some phrases and words so that it is in sync .....
    How much time do you spent in this process until you say: This is enough! Because, somehow. you can always do more and try harder and do it again and try this ....
    Thanks to all your comments

    If it's taking a singer longer than that, they are not prepared, or it's just not their day
    or theyre just so completely horrible to start with and have no business singing in the first place, hahahaha.
    sorry jim, i couldnt help it:-)
    the better paying and the higher profile the gig, theres really a gamut of singers youll encounter. theres a very well known pop artist i work with that honestly doesnt even get CLOSE to usable vocs until theyve been in there warming up for around 6hrs (takes them this long to get the four other very loud overtones in their voice down to about ONE very loud overtone), and you take takes on them just because you never know. (seriously, 6hrs) but you do it because it pays really well, whats a day of time when you get it back a few times over?? (btw, with this person, theres usually about 20-25 takes to go through when comping a voc, so make that TWO days:-( )
    that would be my biggest gauge of how long i spend honestly, the money, unless i have a personal investment in it myself. youll know pretty quickly if youre in trouble or not with a singer. if theyre bad (pitch or timing) but paying well, i will rely on my skills in melodyne to save the day:-) i know what i can do in it and can hear what the singer can or cant do with their voice. sad thing is, the best singers usually arent the ones with record deals.
    i know the money gauge prob sounds cold, but for the most part thats the deciding factor. of course there are times you come across real talent and take the experience of working and creating with them over the money, but MOST of the time in this 'business' we dont always have that luxury. plus if youre just starting out, i would take just about ANY gig just to be able to do it and gain the experience, you dont want a really important gig being your maiden voyage in melodyne:-)
    i would also go with jims recommendation in melodyne. MD studio lets you use key commands to work (plugin doesnt) and its actually sounds better than the plug itself.
    as far as mixing, i cant answer that, i usually dont mix. i will if im the last resort. i would be really discouraged if i couldnt get the mix in a day, with a relisten and tweaks the next day for a couple hours. i sort of mix as i go along just so i can hear everything in its place.
    my 2 cents is done with now:-)

  • What is the name of the tooltips that shows up when you hover over a UIbutton?, such as "back", "foreward", "home" etc

    Okey so basically I've themes my windows 7 into a black state.
    The thing about that is that the default font color firefox uses for tooltips and other information is back so its quite impossible for me to read.
    After a while googleing I found out that something called userChrome.css can be used so naturally I looked furhter.
    I found answers for almost everything I was looking for, except these "button tooltips".
    Heres my userChrome.css code:
    menubar, menu {
    color: black !important;
    menupopup > menu,
    menupopup > menuitem,
    popup > menu,
    popup > menuitem {
    color: white !important;
    tooltip, statusbar {
    color: white !important;
    Basically it takes care of all text that was black and turns it the way I like it.
    So what is the name of the tooltips that shows up when you hover over a UIbutton? such as "back"
    With the correct name I should be able to add
    name {
    color: white !important
    and it should work just fine :)

  • Can someone help with a div that pops up when you hover over a button?

    I made a div that pops up (stacked on the rest of the page) when you hover over a button (gigs). It works in the safari preview but when I test it online it doesn't. It's above the logo instead of blocking it and on the left site instead of the right. And when you open the page it isn't hidden like in the preview. Does someone know what is wrong?
    The test page: Stuff

    Below code, onclick of 'GIGS' shows pop-up window. You then have a 'close' button which when clicked closes it.

  • How much data do you generally use a month?

    Hi everybody. So i am another guy who's getting the iphone 5 at a discount price.. .
    I know they are gonna take my unlimmited data away, and i'll be force to choose the 2GB/$30 a moth, so i was curious too know how much data do i use per month, if 2GB was enough for me. It seems like it, i use 500 MB average a month. But having LTE means more speed, more data, so hopefully 2GB will cover my needs. How about you guys? how much data do you use a month?

    21stNow wrote:
    My usage patterns vary, but 1-5GB a month is normal for me.
    Note that people who participate on forums may not be a good representation of the general population.  We tend to use our mobile technology so much that we are on our carriers' forums.
    Also more likely to use our mobile data plan to access those forums. I know I do.
    As for usage. 2-6 GB per month depending how much I use it.

  • How much time do you get on video on I pad

    How much time do you get on video on the IPad 2?

    Can't really answer that.  It depends on how much storage space you have. A 16Gb iPad will obviously have less space to store a video than a 64GB iPad.
    The only limitation is your storage space.
    At about 100KB per second you are looking at many many hours even on a 16GB iPad.

    How much MB do you need to update to iOS 6.1.3?

    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.
