How to install OS in a new HD from iMac to a MacBookPro without installation disk

Hi guys, please I need some help
I have a MacBook Pro and an iMac.
The iMac is running OK with the latest OS.
The MacBookPro have the HD replaced by a new SSD model from Crucial, because the original was failing...
Now I need to install the OS in the new HD on the MacBookPro (which I already replaced) connected with the iMac via Target Mode (?) without the installation DVD because I dont have it right now.
How can I do this?
Thank you

You are going to need the OSX installation discs that came with your MBP, install OSX Snow Leopard from the disc, then update it to 10.6.8 using software update. Then buy Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store and install it.
You may not use the copy on the iMac for this, it is a violation of the terms of the license.

    How to install and reconfigure a new hard drive?
    I installed a new hard drive from best buy for my "vintage" MacBook laptop.  When I turned on the laptop and the flashing folder appeared, I need help?
    I looked online for some clues.  I put in the software disk I received when I bought the disk but I cannot select a destination volume to install the software.  I tired to partition the drive within disk utility but there was an input/output error.  Should I just plug in my external hard drive and hope everything reboots like magic ?
    Thank you for any help you can give

    How to replace or upgrade a drive in a laptop
    Step One: Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Step Two: Remove the old drive and install the new drive.  Place the old drive in an external USB enclosure.  You can buy one at OWC who is also a good vendor for drives.
    Step Three: Boot from the external drive.  Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager appears.  Select the icon for the external drive then click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Step Four: New Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your new hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID  then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Step Five: Clone the old drive to the new drive
    1. Open Disk Utility from 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. Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the new internal drive. Source means the old external drive.
    Step Six: Open the Startup Disk preferences and select the new internal volume.  Click on the Restart button.  You should boot from the new drive.  Eject the external drive and disconnect it from the computer.

  • How to install only Roxio CD Burner Program from the Recovery CDs?

    I bought a T400 a few weeks ago in Korea.
    But my company uses English, so I had to install a Windows XP English version.
    However, at that time I lost the Roxio software.
    I have the recovery CDs for T400 Windows XP PRO SP2.
    If it is possible, then please let me know how to install only Roxio CD Burner Programs from the Recovery CDs.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    unfortunately it´s not possible to install just one program from recovery cd´s.
    But on Lenovo support pages, there you should find your software and applications.
    Please visit with IE and let autodetect your system.
    Then you should able to choose which type of software is availible for you.
    Choose CD and DVD drives.
    Hopefully the T400 department is up to date now.
    Follow @LenovoForums on Twitter! Try the forum search, before first posting: Forum Search Option

    Cannot be done.
    Creative Suite 4 is a single platform license: Mac only (in your case) or Windows only.
    You must either
    purchase a new full version of CS6 for Windows, or
    purchase a "Crossgrade" from CS4 Mac to CS6 Windows, or

  • How can I download automatically only new images from my camera?

    Hello,
    I can not download only new images from my EOS 450D-camera with Elements 10-Photodownloafer (Mac os).
    Each time I use Photodownloader it downloads all images , also those that were downloaded preveously
    How can I set photodownloader?
    Thanks for your advices

    I share my card with my wife and she likes to download our images also on her PC, so erasing all images is not an option.
    It seems that earlier version of adobe photo downloader has the feature "copy only new files" , but V10 does not.
    Thanks for your answer

    Don’t you format the card in the camera after each download? That will wipe all images and prepare the card for a fresh shoot.

  • Can I install Tiger in my NEW 21.5" iMac ?

    Can I install Tiger on my NEW 21.5" iMac ?
    Machine bought new - Nov. '09.
    While I do like some of the features in Snow Leopard... almost all my existing software plus the Sims 2
    games will apparently NOT run (or run well).

    Rosetta does exactly that. It was created to run MacOS X programs that only ran on PPC macs to run on intel processors. Rosetta would translate PPC machine instructions into intel instrucions on-the fly.
    Classic Mode was a whole separate operating system. Rosetta merely translates PPC to intel so it is generally invisible to the user.
    I have used Quicken '05, iMovie HD, AppleWorks and Microsoft Office under Rosetta with no issues. Photoshop 7 was the only program I have that choked and would not run. I would guess that the Sims program would be most likely to not run. They might have an intel update available, I know that Zoo tycoon 2 had a patch to allow for intel processers, The Sims might, too.
    Some programs have "fat binaries" with both versions. If you are curious, you can see whether you are running intel or PPC-translated by using the activity monitor.
    You don't need to run Rosetta separately, if it is needed it turns itself on, so the programs install normally. In fact, some programs needed Rosetta just to run the installer, the actual software ran on the intels.
    I think I have the same machine as you, I just bought my new 21.5" iMac last month. I love it by they way, a DVD that would have taken all night to burn was done in a little over an hour!

    I recently purchased a Mac Pro.  It did not come with a restore installation disk.  If I needed to rebuild my OS, how do I do it without installation disks?

    Restart with the Option key held down and use the preloaded recovery partition. If that becomes unavailable, the computer will download a new one from Apple's servers.

  • How do I get my just made movie from iMac to iTunes?

    How do I get my just made movie from iMac to iTunes?

    Hello MWWWB,
    Unlike iPhoto, Photoshop is only an editor. It does not store or organize images. In iPhoto preferences, you can choose Photoshop as an editor. You will then get a choice when you double click on an iPhoto thumbnail to use iPhoto or Photoshop to make edits. But Photoshop does not have a library to store images like iPhoto.
    You may want to use Adobe Bridge or Lightroom to help name and organize your pictures. You can Export your iPhoto Library to a folder and manage the exported images there.
    Personally, I hate the arcane manner iPhoto stores and organizes images. I use it only for photos from my iPhone.
