How to move all app data from one user to another? (One mac)

Hi. I've been having this problem for a while. So recently, I've made a new account for myself, since I was using my mom's user account. I don't want to keep all of my files, emails, and icloud on her user, since it's used by everyone in my family. I use iMail now because hotmail blocked my email because "Someone hacked me" and they kept it locked for all these months, and I can't give enough proof to show it was mine, since I forgot every email I've sent now.
And iMail is pretty cool, adding your own rules and stuff. Except you don't need a password to log in. I just deactivate my iMail via system preferences as a log-out, and then re-activate it as a log-in.
So, back to the question.
How can I move ALL app data from my mom's user account to my new one? Her acount also has pictures of our germany vacation. So not every file.
You see, I game on my mac mostly because steam is really complicated, using internet just to play a game that doesn't need internet and stuff.
And steam doesn't have a lot of casual games.
So I want to move my game data, save files and every little piece of application info that my games have on my mom's account to mine. I've asked this question on Yahoo answers, and all I got was an answer of "File IS data, or datum itself, You are wrong. I cannot give you an answer." -.-
I'm not experienced with terminal either, so I'll need a ton of explanation of how to use it if that's how it can be done. It really really confuses me and I'll just give up.
Thanks in advance.

the apps will not be deleted if the itunes is authorised for the apple id from which you downloaded the apps.
for the songs if you have downloaded it from a store other than itunes an app "TuneAid" will help you. download the full version then you can copy all the songs on the ipad to ur itunes library

How do I recover Apps Data from the iCloud on iPhone 4S with IOS 6.1?

How do I recover Apps Data from the iCloud on iPhone 4S with IOS 6.1?

You would have to restore to your entire iCloud backup, if you have one. (The backup includes app data.) Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process. If you have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that you want to save you'll need to do that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup. Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

Is it possible to set table-variant from one user to another one?

Is it possible to set table-variants from a t-code like fb60 from one user to another one?
I mean that both user have the same table-variants.

You mean screen variant, where you will need to anter the GL line items in FB50?
then you can set your desired variant as DEFAULT for all users, when it is configured.
Else thru SU10, for all of your users, add parameter ID SCRVAR and give your parameter value (screen variant name) and SAVE.

How can I move all my bookmarks from different Firefox profiles into one area to organize them and then place them into the different Firefox profiles?

How can I move all my bookmarks from different Firefox profiles (would like to move whole bookmark folders at once if possible) into one area to organize them and then place them into the different Firefox profiles? This is all under one window user account, I am using windows 8.1. Even if you have information on how to do it on a different windows, it may still be helpful. Thanks for any input you have.

Just a note about the difference between these two things:
* "export" and "import" use an ancient HTML document format that all browsers can understand. When you import bookmarks, Firefox may place them into an Imported Bookmarks folder, or into Unsorted Bookmarks. This does not displace existing bookmarks, and Firefox does not automatically remove duplicates.
* "backup" and "restore" use a more comprehensive JSON data file, which contains extra information about your bookmarks (such as tags) not contained in the traditional export file. HOWEVER, a restore completely replaces all existing bookmarks, so the restore feature cannot be used to merge in a set of additional bookmarks.
Related support articles:
* [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]]
* [[Import Bookmarks from a HTML file]]
* [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
Some users find the disk-based Windows Favorites folder a convenient way to organize bookmarks. If you do, too, and you do not need to preserve tags on your bookmarks, you could export each profile's bookmarks to HTML and import them all into IE11. Organize them in the Windows Favorites folder, then export from IE11 to HTML and import that file into each Firefox profile. See: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/add-view-organize-favorites].

Thankyou Winston, you guess right. What i don't understand is why with the older version of mac os (10.9) i can organize my document into icloud folders using the Pages app window. But now with the new version i'm no longer able to do that. Using ipad in the same window there is no problem, but in mac os it doesn't work.

You erase everything and put the factory operating system back on from the Internet Recovery (command option r held at boot time),
If the factory operating system was 10.6, 10.5 or 10.4, then you put 10.6. using the disks.

How to move all my data to a server and wirelessly access it from any Mac

Hi. I have a PB, an MBP, a Mac Mini and a new iMac, which all serve different purposes. I have got to the point at home where I want to have one private account with all my data on a HD and to just log in to it from whichever machine I happen to be using. I currently have an Airport Express as my wireless router and am considering buying and Airport Extreme/Time Capsule. I have about 500GB of data, which is growing pretty quickly since I have use of an HD camcorder, so I will buy one or two large drives in addition to the various external HDs I already (that total about 850GB) have. What is the best way (at relatively low cost) for me to set up my wireless home network in order to achieve the above goal?
Thanks for your time.
Matthew Whiting

Don't go there. At least not for all your data.
The relatively low throughput and high latency of the wireless connection (at least compared to direct-attached disks) will make accessing large files cumbersome and frustrating. Since you specifically mention HD video you should be aware that what takes a long time now will take a lot longer if the media is accessed over the wireless network.
So while your goal might be technically feasible, it's unlikely to be workable.
Instead you should consider focussing your centralized data on content that makes sense (e.g. maybe your iTunes library), and store data locally where it's more appropriate (e.g. consider one machine for video editing).
Therefore you need to analyze your data - both in terms of content (what you have) and use (how you access it) to determine what makes sense to store centrally. Once you have that it will be easier to form a plan.

How to move all the tables from one tablespace to other for a whole schema

Hi,
Is there any way to move all the tables in a schema from one tablespace to other?
If so please help me out to do that.
Thanks
Regards
Gatha

hi,
here is the steps to move SCOTT's objects from their current tablespace to a NEW_TABLESPACE
would be:
1) do an export of all of scott's objects. Make sure no one modifies them after you
begin this process. You will lose these changes if they do.
$ exp userid=scott/tiger owner=scott
2) you would drop all of scotts tables. This will get the indexes as well. I don't
suggest dropping the user SCOTT but rather dropping scott's objects. Dropping scott
would cause any system priveleges SCOTT has to disappear and the import would not restore
them. This script can be used to drop someones tables:
set heading off
set feedback off
set verify off
set echo off
spool tmp.sql
select 'drop table &1..' || table_name || ' cascade constraints;'
from dba_tables
where owner = upper('&1')
spool off
@tmp.sql
3) You would modify the user to not have unlimited tablespace (else the IMP will just
put the objects right back into the tablespace they came from) and then give them
unlimited quota's on the new tablespace you want the objects to go into and on their
temporary tablespace (for the sorts the index creates will do)
alter user SCOTT default tablespace NEW_TABLESPACE
revoke unlimited tablespace from SCOTT
alter user SCOTT quota unlimited on NEW_TABLESPACE
alter user SCOTT quota unlimited on SCOTTS_TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE
4) you will IMP the data back in for that user. IMP will rewrite the create statements
to use the users default tablespace when it discovers that it cannot create the objects
in their original tablespace. Please make sure to review the file imp.log after you do
this for any and all errors after you import.
imp userid=scott/tiger full=y ignore=y log=imp.log
5) you can optionally restore 'unlimited tablespace' to this user (or not). If you do
not, this user can only create objects in this new tablespace and temp (which in itself
is not a bad thing)...

When I use migration assistant to move all my data from my Macbook Air to my Pro, it uses the last full back up not the last partial back up. The last full backup is two months old though. Both machines are running Mountain Lion. How do I get my latest 1

Hi
I need to move my data from a time capsule that backuped my Macbook Air (which has been destroyed by liquid damage) to my Macbook Pro. The Air and the Pro both run Mountain Lion and I have a clean installation on the Macbook Pro.
I used Migration Assitant to move the data across but while I have back ups of my Air up to 24 hours before it was destroyed, the migration assistant only wishes to migrate data from the last full back up that it finds which is 2 months old.
Please can you advise how I can restore the latest data to my Macbook Pro.
Many thanks.

please let me know the linksys device model number you are using ..

How to move tables with data from one client to another

Hello friends
I have 2 clients 001 and 002.
I have created a table with lots of data on client 001.
I have to get the same table on 002 also with the same data.
Is there an easier way of transfering this data from one table to another?
I would appreciate any feedback on this.
I know that mappings etc., can be done using the export and import of tpz file. So I want to know if there is any similar thing to transfer a table with data.
THanks
Ram

hi
thanks for the response
We are working on a sandbox system for demo purpose.
Actually we have two different group of people using two different clients created on the same server.
Our group is using client 001 and another group is using client 002.
We don't want the changes that one group does to the table to affect the other.
Our group has created a z-table and have entered considerable amount of data.
However, the other group also need to create the same table with the same data.
So to avoid double work, we were trying to see if there is a way to copy the table with data created on 001 to 002.
Any suggestions / feedback will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ram

How to transfer all the data from Logic pro to other drive (faster)?

Hi
I am trying to upgrade the performance of my Mac and decided to upgrade the RAM and to use a dedicated HardDrive for Logic Pro using firewire (i have a mac mini server...). Think the Processor e fast enough...
How can i transfer all the information for that drive?
Can i move the media library from the OS drive to the new drive? or has it to stay were initially instaled?
I moved to Mac because my Windows "Super 16GB QuadCore PC" was giviing me trouble...in relation to connections, critical errors...
I am a novice on the Mac "ways"...
Can someone give me directions?

Logic doesn't store the majority of its data in designated library places, so you can put your session files and audio files wherever you want. If you move the location of something, say an audio file, and logic doesn't know where to find that asset, then it'll present you with a dialog box which asks you if you can tell it where you moved it to, or if you'd like it to go off and search for files of that name for you. They're all just files on a hard disk. There's only a few things which have to be stored in particular places, such as preferences or sampler instruments. Anything that isn't part of the program, you can store it wherever you want. In a session you can have for example all the live parts on one hard disk, and then all your samples on another hard disk. It's all arbitrary and can be defined by you.
So yes, you can generally keep your media library wherever you want (as far as Logic is concerned).

How to copy all the data from old computer to new computer (server)

Dear all,
As I want to upgrade the server from old computer to a new one.
I want to ask how and easy way to copy all of table, sequence, ......data from existing old computer to new computer.
The old server is window 2000 Server with oracle 10g
The new server may window 2003 Server with oracle 10g
Thanks a lot
Francis SZE

As far as I can see you are copying from db10g for windows to another host on the same platform and same OS, so a simple cold backup taken from the source database can be restored at the target host. You must first make sure the configuration files and service be created prior to performing the database startup procedure at the target host. You may also as suggested, perform an rman duplication task
