How to slect applications not to move with migration

Just received my 2011 iMac.  I to transfer data from my dome iMac G4.  None of the apps. ( Print Shop, Office, Adobe photoshop elements) have upgrade so planning to purchase recent ones.  How do I tell Migration which apps to transfer using firewire.
If I allow migration to move all data over and these apps are not compatible will I be told this so I can delete the app and all hidden support files?
Thanks.
John Montgomery

Neither Migration Assistant nor Setup Assistant have the ability to pick and choose which apps to migrate, its an all or nothing proposition. Because you are migrating from a PPC based machine I would recommend first starting over using Setup Assistant rather than MA. They are cousins however they are different in:
1. MA isn't as reliable SA
2. MA creates a new use  account when SA does not
Next I would recommend only migrating Documents and Settings and leaving behind the Apps. Do a manual install of your Apps on the new machine. This is more time consuming but is a more reliable method and also give you the opportunity to update old apps that need updating. At the same time you can check if they're compatible with Snow Leopard.
As I mentioned earlier I would start over (again a long term time saver) by using Setup Assistant tips beginning where he discusses "Second chance....."

  • How to Make application usable by persons with disabilities as blind

    Hi All,
    I am developing a custom webcenter portal application.
    During the development 1 thought came to my mind that I should develop the application for persons with disabilities such as blind.
    But I have no idea from where to start and how to move further.
    I searched on internet but could not found anything other than -

    Please suggest me how to move forward and what consideration i should take before moving ahead.
    Also Please guide me about the limitations.Any idea regarding this would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Accessibility involves making your application usable by persons with disabilities such as low vision or blindness, deafness, or other physical limitations.
    In the simplest of terms, this >means creating applications that can be used without a mouse (keyboard only),
    used with a screen reader for blind or low-vision users, and used without reliance on sound, color, >or animation and timing.Have a look at -

  • How do I have an image move with a text box?

    I need to embed an image within a text box so that when I add additional text in the future, the image moves with the text that surrounds it.
    For example, if I have a paragraph of text, then on the following line vertically I have an image, then on the following line another paragraph of text ... When I add additional paragraphs of text above the image, how can I have the image track down to stay between the original two paragraphs of text?

    Thanks Zak!  I figured that out but now have another problem that I just posted. The app keeps locking up when I try to export HTML or upload my site to the server. Please give me any advise on how to handle it.
    Here's my other post:
    Hi,
    I just upgraded to the latest version of Muse. I made a few changes to my site and I'm trying to export the HTML. I've now tried 3 times and the app locks up at 89%. It completes all pages, but locks up there. When I look into the Muse Export folder, there is nothing there. The window reads "Finishing export" but it stays at that point for more than an hour when I finally give up and force quit.
    Any ideas? Anyone else having this issue? Any ideas on how to get my HTML exported successfully?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Just an update. Previously I was attempting to export HTML to the Muse Export folder on my computer. I described what happened above. Now, I'm trying to publish directly to my FTP site. Its doing basically the same behavior where it exports all desktop pages (189 of them) then it locks up. However, the interesting thing is that when exporting to the Muse Export folder on my computer this said it was 89% complete. When uploading to my server, it says its 59% computer when all pages have been exported. Both options result in the app locking up and never completing the export. I did check my site online to see if the pages were really updated. I made a change to the nav bar on the master so I should see that on every page. It is not showing up online yet even though the app says all 189 pages have been exported. Still looking for help, all advice and ideas will be appreciated! I do want to get my updates online.

  • How do I save an edited movie with brightness, contrast adjustments

    I am using Quicktime pro ver 7.6.4(518.35) and I love its editing features especially the rotation and brightness adjustment features. Is it possible to save a move with these edits so they will be view correct with the basic Quicktime player? I have a movie that I edited the contrast and brightness and resave it as its original MOV file. The new contrast and brightness setting show up when I play the video on the same computer that has my Quicktime pro on it. But, when I play it on another computer with the basic Quicktime player the movie reverts to the original Contrast and brightness. Am I doing something wrong? I even tried to export it to another format and lose the video portion of the movie.
    I would hope that I could fully edit a movie save it and give it to my family so they can view it like it was edited. Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Ok, after some searching, I found the export filter settings...
    However, the exported video appearance does not match that of the source video with similar A/V settings.
    Example 1 = Source video (.3g2) with A/V settings, recorded with screen capture software. *http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezvE6sUeUb0*
    Example 2 = Source video with similar export filter settings (brightness/contrast) *http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tQYXWX17zQ*
    When the video gets brighter, the brightness dims and when the video gets darker, the brightness increases... contrast settings seemed to be ignored.
    All I can say is.. what the HECK?
    It's pretty sad when I have to rely on screen capture software to get the desired result! Luckily the source video was taken with a cell phone, so there was no noticeable loss in video quality.

  • How to install applications for multiple iPads with one ID?

    Hey guys,
    I have to prepare many iPads for work, and I've found the process to be very redundant. In order to ensure that the applications are tied to the ID of the final client, I have to first create an account under my email, download all the applications and then change the email to the client's. Now when I have to prepare another device, I have to delete the applications in iTunes and re-download them with a new account to make sure they are tied to the next ID. Is there a way to download and sync all the applications under one ID, and not have issue with updates in the future? Keep in mind I'm only installing free applications.

    I was referring in particular to the logs that are created by Workshop
    itself (in the workshop directory). It creates workshop.log and netui.log.

    Steven,
    which workshop log file are you referring to ?
    the workshop log files are usually saved to the domain directory.
    If the developers are each going to start their own server instances then
    there should be no issues.
    The best option for you is to create multiple domains for each developer.
    They will share the same workshop installation, but they will each have
    their own instances.

    Hello,
    What is the best way to install the WL 8.1 Platform for multiple
    developers on a single UNIX machine? These developers may start
    concurrent instances.
    The problems I see are that the log files generated by Workshop would
    be shared among concurrent users, permissions would need to be set so
    that the user that is running the instance that creates the log files
    will need to create the file with permissions that everyone can use. Are
    there any other issues to doing this?
    I could not find the information on this in the documentation.

  • "Could not load movie" with YouTube videos.

    Hi there,
    In both the past and present I have had much difficulty with playing many YouTube videos on my iPod touch 4. This happens to be the case no matter if I am in the YouTube app or on the mobile YouTube site in safari. I will try to play a video to watch it and often times I blue box will pop up saying 'could not load movie'. This makes video viewing and sharing quite difficult! Please help! Thank you very much!
    - Samuel Amos

    Here is an explanation for you for the "could not load movie" error, which I have also received on my iPad.
    If you run across this error on your iDevice, keep the following in mind:
    This is taken from another site, so I will quote:
    "Most of the time its due to the age of the video upload, this one for example was done back in 2009 which was 2 years ago now. YouTube as you know relies heavily on Flash for video playback which is not compatible with the iOS range.
    However to combat this, YouTube did work on converting chunks of videos to H264 playback, but by default the entire backlog of videos did not go through this conversion process...so you will find the odd video out there that does not play.
    I believe though (and please someone correct me here if i am wrong) YouTube by default now encodes uploads in H264 as well as flash and a few other formats for multi-platform enjoyment :-) "

  • How can I record parts of movies with Quicktime on my i5 Macbook Pro?

    I love the options Quicktime offers me in screen recording. Before I went over to the "Mac-Side" I played around with different Windows-based screen recording software but couldnt find any that offered seamless recording. Quicktime gives me just that. My problem, however, is this. Whenever I try to record a movie or video clip with screen recording, all I can see of the video is a bunch of white and grey blocks. Why is this? Is there an option I need to click or a specific resolution I need to record in so I can clip parts of videos?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Not that way, no.  As to how you could do it, the hosts here don't like discussion of such things...  Movie studios would be disturbed at the idea of putting their movies in the iTunes Store if the Apple site was being used to discuss potential piracy methods.
    So, I could tell you, but then they'd have to kill you.  (Or remove my post maybe. )

  • How can I sync Notes from Outlook with my iPhone

    Calendar, Contacts and E-mail works great, but I live by the notes in Outlook. I switch from Blackberry to iPhone. I am using notes to store quick account info and notes from users while working. When I am back to the office I sync everything with outlook so I can have backup in case something happens to my phone. Any chance somebody developed App that can be used to sync notes between Outlook and iPhone, or even ITunes and iPhone?

    I think I solved my problem. Contacts in Outlook have Notes section. I just created another set of contacts and rename that contact group "NOTES". I copied all my notes from notes folder in outlook to this new contact group and now my notes are syncing using exchange active sync just like my regular contacts. Problem solved without any third party application.

  • Adf application not rendered correctly with url ip and url localhost.

    Hi all.
    I have a strange problem. When I enter to my adf application deployed in a local stand alone weblogic server with the ip:
    http://localhost:7001/Application/faces/index
    it renders fine. But when I load it with the url:
    http://10.5.14.15:7001/Application/faces/index (private ip), it doesn´t render fine. Tables haven´t the same style, and some elements appear selected like if I have selected them with the mouse.
    This problem only happens with internet explorer, not with Chrome.
    Also when I see a table inside a region in a jspx, the with of the header of the columns is not rendered correctly, causing the width of the header row not be the same than the other rows.
    This problem also happens only with internet explorer.
    Any help please?
    Internet Explorer 8. JDeveloper 11g.2. Weblogic 10.3.5.0
    Also happens with Internet Explorer.
    Maybe encoding? doctype?
    Thanks

    What would the DOCTYPE have to do with the IP address?
    Have you looked at the HTML source in the different browsers and tried to debug what's wrong? Sounds like there may be some images/css files that aren't being downloaded in IE when you use that IP address. Are you sure IE isn't configured with a proxy?

  • HT4910 how do i sync notes from Outlook with icloud?

    Hi. Just migrated over from a Blackberry, and need to sync my iPhone 4s with Outlook 2010. I can sync the Contacts and Calender, albeit only in the iCloud, but although Notes shows up on the phone under settings, in iCloud and Outlook is does not sync or show up. Further issues are that because both Contacts and Calender are only in the iCloud (otherwise i would have duplicates of everything) the search option in Outlook will not work. In addition, the upcoming appointments viewing pane (on r/h side of emails) is also blank. Went into Apple store, and they could not help. Surely Apple and Microsoft want both products to work seemlessly with each other?

    I think I solved my problem. Contacts in Outlook have Notes section. I just created another set of contacts and rename that contact group "NOTES". I copied all my notes from notes folder in outlook to this new contact group and now my notes are syncing using exchange active sync just like my regular contacts.

  • How to get Podcasts not to play with songs?

    Hello:
    I just downloaded about 10 podcasts, and this is the first time that I have downloaded any podcasts. I noticed that when I started playing my music that the podcasts are also in my music lineup, and therefore they also play with the music alphabetically. I would like to seprate my podcasts from my music. How can I do this?

    You can create a "Music Only" smart playlist in iTunes with the settings:
    Select "match all of the following rules" and set filters:
    Kind - contains - audio
    and
    Genre - is not - Podcast
    This playlist will exclude podcasts and anything not audio (eg videos). In the future you can add additional filters to exclude audiobooks, etc. If you want to play music, just play this playlist.
