How to Copy Contents of  One HD to Another HD?

I use a G4 QuickSilver 2002; run Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard.  I would like to copy the contents of one old hard drive to the main hard drive.  How do I do it?  I tried using Disk Utility, but didn't know what to next once the Disk Utility folder appeared.  Enclosed please find picture of DU.  I'm trying to copy disk named Hard Disk to WD1200 Boot Drive.

Alll the Disk Utility can do is clone an entire drive. In the process the Destination drive is erased. Is that the result you want? If so do this:
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
  1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
  2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
  3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
  4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
       it to the Destination entry field.
  5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
      the Source entry field.
  6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
If you want to copy files to the Destination without erasing the Destination, then you can do that using Drag and Drop. Select the files you wish to copy and drag them to the Destination drive. Note, that if the Destination is a boot drive, then be sure you only drag your files and data - no system files.

  • How to copy file from  one location to another

    Hi,
    I am new to java, I tried the following code to move the file from one location to another
    public class CopyFiles {
    public String copy ( File source, File target)
    throws IOException {   
    FileChannel sourceChannel = null;
    FileChannel targetChannel =null;
    try {   
    sourceChannel =new FileInputStream(source).getChannel();
    targetChannel= new FileOutputStream(target).getChannel();
    targetChannel.transferFrom(sourceChannel, 0,
    sourceChannel.size());
    finally {   
    targetChannel.close();
    sourceChannel.close();
    return "Success";
    public static void main(String [] args) throws Exception{   
    File source = new File("C:\\users\\download.pdf");
    File destinationFile = new File("C:\\apple\\download.pdf");
    copy(source, destinationFile);
    The above code is working perfectly, but I Don't want to include the file name in destination file. i.e. File destinationFile=new File("C:\\apple"), and at the same time the pdf with same name has to get stored in the destination location, how can I achieve this.

Yes?
    If that's the case, then break the original up into separate directory and file name portions, and then construct the destination path from the destination directory plus original file name. You can do that by manipulating the full path string, or by using the methods in java.io.File.

  • How to copy data from one table to another (in other database)

    Hi. I would like to copy all rows from one table to another (and not use BC4J). Tables can be in various databases. I have already 2 connections and I am able to browse source table using
    ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("select ...");
    But I would not like to create special insert statement for every row . There will be problems with date formats etc and it will be slow. Can I use retrieved ResultSet somehow ? Maybe with method insertRow, but how, if ResultSet is based on select statement and want to insert into target table? Please point me in the right direction. Thanks.

    No tools please, it must be common solution. We suceeded in converting our BC4J aplication to PostgreSQL, the MSSQL will be next. So we want to write simple aplication, which could transfer data from our tables between these 3 servers.

  • How to copy pictures from one iPad to another iPad?

    I want to copy pictures in my new iPad3 to my iPad1 without going through my apple computer.  Is there a way to do it?  I tried to use the usb connector to sync but it can only go from my iPad 3 to iPad1 but not the other way around.  (I did try to switch the "direction" of the usb connector.)
    If I have to go through my apple computer, how should I proceed?  I have created another iTune library for the new iPad3.

    Use Finder on your computer to locate your iPad when attached. Dig down through the folders (which will only contain photos and videos) to locate your photos. Select them and copy them to a new folder or folders on your computer and subsequently check that folder or folders in iTunes during a sync to the other iPad.

  • How to copy footer of one PLD to another PLD

    Dear All,
    Is it possible to copy the footer of one PLD to another footer of PLD. e.g PLD name A footer details copied to PLD name B.
    Looking forward for a way to solve this.
    Regards,
    Kawish

    Kawish,
    It is absolutely possible. Make sure the hidden fields are displayed in your layout designer, then select all the fields in the footer which you want to copy - along with the hidden ones. You can simply draw a frame around the fields to highlight them together. Then either press CTRLC to copy or go to Edit -> Copy. Close the layout, then open the one where you want to paste the fields. You don't need to specify the exact place where you want to put them as SAP will place them exactly to the same position they were in the base layout. So just simply press CTRLV or Edit -> Paste and the fields will be pasted.
    The system might ask you at the time of pasting if you want to use the same field numbers as you had in the base layout, if you say yes, then the formulas will still work correctly too. Otherwise the system gives these fields the next incrementing field numbers.
    Save the layout and it's ready to use.
    Regards,
    Nat

  • How to copy file from one table to another table at another database

    I need to transfer my tables from one workspace and schema to another workspace and schema. Basically I need to create again all the tables at this new schema. How could I transfer data from tha table at old schema to the table at new schema when this table has files stored in it? (data type is blob)
    thank you so much,
    Silver

    Hello Silver,
    Depending which database you're using (if it's available) I would recommend to use datapump.
    Datapump allows you to copy an entire schema to another database, it's the "new" export/import you might now.

  • How to copy value from one field to another in a Apex Form

    Hello guys,
    There are 2 addresses one is shipping and other is billing. I do not want the customer to re-enter all the details if it is the same address. So based upon an action, it should take the live values from one address field and populate the other address field. I know in JS you can do it, but how to implement that in Apex?
    I guess using Dynamic Actions to achieve this in Version 4 but do not know how. Read quite some info but no luck.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    I have assumed that you have your shipping address at the top of the page, and then further down the page you have your billing address that you want to enable the users to copy (if this is in reverese, you will need to switch the js variables in the code following).
    I would create a Select List item above the 'Billing Address' details, called PX_SAME_ADDRESSThis select list would be static, with the options Null.
    I also assume you would have pairs of address page items such as:
    PX_SHIPPING_ADDRESS_L1
    PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L1
    PX_SHIPPING_ADDRESS_L2
    PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L2
    PX_SHIPPING_POST_CODE
    PX_BILLING_POST_CODEThen copy the following code into the HTML Header of the page definition:
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    function copyAddress()
       if( $x('PX_SAME_ADDRESS').value == 'YES')
         $x('PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L1').value = $x('PX_SHIPPING_ADDRESS_L1').value;
         $x('PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L2').value = $x('PX_SHIPPING_ADDRESS_L2').value;
         $x('PX_BILLING_POST_CODE').value = $x('PX_SHIPPING_POST_CODE').value;
       else //Clear Address Fields
         $x('PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L1').value = " ";
         $x('PX_BILLING_ADDRESS_L2').value = " ";
         $x('PX_BILLING_POST_CODE').value = " ";
    </script>Then, in your PX_SAME_ADDRESS item, copy the code below into the Element > HTML Form Element Attributes field.
    onChange="copyAddress();"Hopefully this works for you too, and should give you some basis to play around with.

  • Copying content from one frame to another frame

    Hi All,
    In my application, i want popup frame to enter the values when clicking the mouse(Double Click). I open the new frame by using the following code
    JFrame frame = new NewJFrame("PopUp Frame");
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.HIDE_ON_CLOSE);
    JLabel label = new JLabel("PopUp Frame");
    //Create and set up the content pane.
    frame.getContentPane().add(label);
    frame.setResizable(false);
    //Display the window.
    frame.pack();
    frame.setVisible(true);
    In this new frame if i entered the value in the textbox how can i take it in the main screen where the mouseclicked to open this new frame?
    Please if anyone know give the solution.

    Use code tags to post codes -- [code]CODE[/code] will display asCODEOr click the CODE button and paste your code between the {code} tags that appear.
    To get better help sooner, post a [_SSCCE_|http://mindprod.com/jgloss/sscce.html] that clearly demonstrates your problem.
    i want popup frameIt's better to use a modal JDialog. A GUI application should normally have only one JFrame.

  • How to copy files from one user to another on same macbook pro

    I used the migration assistant to move files from an old windows pc to my new macbook pro.  It created a second user and put everything there.  I now can't figure out how to move them so they are under me.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The easiest way is to put your files in /Users/Shared. To access to this folder, open a Finder window, select the Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type that directory.
    That folder can be read by all users, so you won't have any problem to copy your files to the other user account.
    Another option would be to copy your files to an external drive. Also, see > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5472

  • How to copy table from one sheet to another making formulas relative to current sheet

    I'm truly sorry if this has been answered within this forum but I've been reading these posts for the last hour and nothing. Ok so here's my issue:
    I'm trying to do a budget spreadsheet. My ss contains sheets with each one representing a month. So sheet 1 is called January, 2 February etc.
    I have two table in each sheet, one with a list of expenses and the other is a subtable with that references the first table for special expenses. The second table is identical in functionality in each sheet so I do a copy from January into February. However, when I copy into Feburary, all my formulas still point to 'January::' and I have to go and remove the 'January::' from each cell.
    Is there any way to copy the second table and make it relative to the sheet that it's in? It seems simple and maybe I'm doing something fundamentally wrong but I can't find the answer anywhere.

    I made a simple version of what I think you are describing:
    I gave each table a name "Tabl" and "SubTable"
    SubTable cell A1 is assigned as follows:
    A1=Table :: A1
    Then I duplicated the January Sheet by highlighting the sheet and typing the key command <COMMAND>+d (or selceting the menu item "Edit > Duplicate"):
    Then I change the name of the new shee from "January -1" to "February"
    The relative reference should already exist.
    You can confim this by changing the contants of the informaiton in cell A1 of Table in the "February sheet
