How to move referenced files from 1 EHD to another EHD

I have an ap lib of 100,000 images/videos stored on a gdrive 2 TB. I want to move them to a Drobo 5d and don't know how. I have my aperture library set up exactly the way i have it set up on my gdrive. Do I use 2 finder windows to drag all of my projects from the gdrive to the Drobo? If so, do I also drag the aperture library folder? If I do this how will aperture know to look for the files on the new Drobo 5d and not the gdrive? Or do I have to go into each individual project in aperture and relocate the originals to the new Drobo 5d? This seems like it would take forever. What I want to accomplish is to have all of my images and the metadata, geotags, edits etc associated with these images on the new Drobo 5d. I greatly appreciate any help on how to do this. Thank you

A BIG thank you for all to respond. As I am not techie at all I find this process intimdating bc I have worked so long to create large ap lib i currently have. I have spent the last week reading and re-reading many posts and tips from this site and the ap manual. I am curently running a repair of library permissions and whenever that finishes i am going to relocate my originals to the new EHD (drobo 5d).
So, there is one thing I am confused about. I will go to photos ( 115,000) select all go to file, relocate masters. Now, the scary part for me: How do I ensure that the same project structure I currently have in aperture gets "relocated" to the new EHd? For example, in my library I have 1660 projects of which 90 percent are organized as 2013_06_07 , 2013_06_06, etc the remaining 10 precent are by names, ex Vacation Ireland 2012. i also have various albums. In the relocate origianls menu how do I ensure that they relocate in the same structure? I dont know which options to choose
? Subfolder? Custom subfolder? Name format? Custom name?
I just want all the images to move over with all their keywords, geotages, ratings, etc and staye in the same projects they are currently in.
I fear that you have already answered this for me and i have failed to fully understand....thank you

How to move a file from a page to another one in a wiki?

Is it possible to move a file from a page to another one in a wiki (wiki server 4)?

Files uploaded via "+" button and "Upload File to "My wiki name"" can be moved just like normal wiki pages by clicking the "sprocket" button and selecting "Move to Wiki"
Fils attached via the "paperclip" button when editing a page, must be downloaded first, deleted from the initial page and reattached to the new page.

Plz help me.If possible give me sample code .
I am in deep trouble for this project.

Use java.io.File.renameTo(...) (look it up in the API documentation).
Renaming a file doesn't work if you're trying to move files from one disk to another disk. In that case, you have to copy the file and delete the original.

How to move SQL database from one location to another location i.e. from C' drive to D' drive

Hi, How to move SQL database from one location to another location i.e. from C' drive to D' drive ? please share some link.
Thanks and Regards, Rangnath Mali

Hi Rangnath,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to move databased from C drive to D drive.
You can detach Database so that the files become independent, cut and paste the files from source to destination and attach again.
There are two similar posts for your reference:

How to move PDF file from Spool to Application Server?

How to move PDF file from Spool to Application Server?
Cannot use RSTXPDFT4 because that converts OTF to PDF and the file is already PDF.
RSTXPDFT5 doesn't work. It picks the file up and assigns it a 'text' type and outputs a 1 line txt (1kb in size) on the server with the spool number in it!
The program which outputs the file to the spool, in the first place, uses adobe forms and outputs to a printer of type PDF.

Hi Gemini ,
Please refer the below links.

Dear all ,
How to move a reports from one account to another account.
These are reports sent automatically. Unfortunately, I do not know where to find them and how to export to another account.

Hi,
You can use the Transaction SCC1 to move the data from One Client to Another Client for a Client dependent table.
The data should be present in a Transport and you can import to Transport to any client using SCC1.
Contact the Basis team to know how to use SCC1.

How to move database objects from one user to another user

Could someone help how to move database objects from one user to another user
Thanks in advance

Thanks a lot for the reply.
Actually I wanted to know whether there is any command to change the owner ship of the table.
For ex table1 belongs to user1. can the owner of table1 to be changed to owner2.
directly using an oracle command. I knew that it can be done using import and export, since the table was 200 million thought the rename command would be faster instead of import and export.
Thanks Billy for letting me know that it is not possible using oracle query.

Move stickie file from one mac to another, move stickie file from one mac to another, How do I move stickie file from one mac to another

How do you transfer the stickie data file from one mac to another?

I think this is the file -
In (hard drive) > Users > yourhomefolder (the one with the house icon) > Library, look for a loose file named StickiesDatabase
Copying that file to the same location on the new machine (and replacing the file there now) should move the notes. It is probably a good idea that both machines be running the same OS X version.

How do i move a file from one directory to another?

Can anyone help me in moving a file from one directory to another?
The following code just does not work!!
File source_file = new File(source_file);
if(source_file.exists())
File dest_file = new File(destination_file);
if(!dest_file.exists())
boolean moved = source_file.renameTo(dest_file);
System.out.println("moved.."+moved);
The varirable moved is always false.
Can anyone tell me whts wrong in this code?

The problem in your code is you used file object as argument when you create a new File. I changed a little bit codes and it should be fine now.
String source_file1="test111.txt";
String destination_file1="test222.txt";
try{
     File source_file = new File(source_file1);
     if(source_file.exists())
          File dest_file = new File(destination_file1);
          if(!dest_file.exists())
               boolean moved = source_file.renameTo(dest_file);
               System.out.println("moved.."+moved);
catch(Exception e){
           e.printStackTrace();
}
