How to sync iphone 4 + ipad (1st gen) from old mac mini to new pc laptop

hey, ive been trying to find a solution to this problem but havent found a single result. the problem is that i know how to sync apps, videos etc. however i dont know how to transfer the app data, like progress in games, or application settings, and so on. is there any way to do this? thank you.

Firstly on the Mac, sync and backup both devices to
iTunes.  Make sure everything is set up to sync all
the items you want.
Then follow this to process to move your iTunes
library to the PC:

p.s.  Make sure you keep your old Mini around until you are sure
         all is working well.

  • Transfering files from old mac mini to new mac mini

    I just purchased a new mac mini intel duo OSX 10.4.10, with which I am using my existing monitor, keyboard and mouse. I want to transfer important files and software from my old original mac mini without having to purchase a whole new set of peripherals, which seems to be indicated when the set up assistant directs connecting the CPU's with firewire cable. Please advise. Thanks.

    No need for a second set of peripherals. Plug the firewire cable into both computers and the keyboard into the old Mac and start it up in FireWire target mode (hold the T key while turning it on). Now unplug the keyboard and connect it to the new one. Start up the Migration Assistant and go.

  • How to sync iphone s through itunes on old mac

    I backed up my old iphone to my mac os x 10.5.8. I just bought a new I phone s. I want to sync it with my mac so I can pull up my old apps, contacts, etc. through itunes. When I plug in my phone, it says I have to download Itunes 11.3 or later. I can't update my itunes. It says I have the latest itunes update, but it is only 10.6. Any suggestions on how I can sync my new phone using my mac and more specifically using itunes?

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, it can't sync that iPhone.
    If it's an Intel Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.

  • How would I migrate OS 10.6 from my mac mini to my macbook running 10.5 ?

    How would I migrate OS 10.6 from my mac mini to my macbook running 10.5 ?  I eventually want to upgrade to 10.8.  Can I upgrade to 10.8 from 10.6 OS?  I recently purchased an iPhone 5.  I wanna use the iCloud.

    The license you have only covers one computer, and the install disks from one type of Mac will not work on another type. You need to buy another copy of Snow Leopard.
    Start by checking if it can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

  • Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

    Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

    Hey ilyaz20360341,
    Could you please specify how exactly did you transfer Acrobat from one MAC to other.
    You might need to deactivate the software from your old machine and then activate it on the new one with the same serial number (for Acrobat license) or Adobe credentials (for Acrobat subscription).
    If you have done the same way, then let me know if you are able to open Acrobat itself.
    Do you get any specific error message while opening a PDF?
    Hope to get your response.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • Received new mac how do you get all your information from old mac?

    Received a new mac for my daughter.  How do you get all the information from old mac?

    Your best bet, by far, is to use Setup Assistant when your shiny new Mac first starts up (not Migration Assistant later).

  • How do I migrate my albums from old mac to my new macbook?

    How do I migrate my albums from old mac to my new macbook? The photos are already migrated, but I've lost all the old groupings in the albums and I don't want to manually re-group the thousands of photos!!!

    I was using version 6.0.6 of iPhoto.
    My issue is that I already have sorted the photos into Albums - about 50 of them. And now on my new computer I can't see any of the albums I had sorted them into, and I don't want to have to recreate all those Albums!  That was one of the primary reasons I stuck with Apple when I upgraded. Had I known it wouldn't bring the albums over, I probably wouldn't have bought another apple.
    Is there any way to get all the work I've already done in organising my photos onto my new computer? Thanks for your help.

  • Digital copies of movies can no longer sync on mini ipad (1st gen) but works on mini w/retina display; using Windows XP; just installed Win 7 but lost libraries

    have 2 mini ipads.  1st gen can no longer add digital movies from my iTunes library/purchased content.  cannot sync; error msg "cant be played in HD; your computer must have Windows 7 & a built in display or a display that supports HDCP.  My mini w/Retina works fine.  My PC is on Windows XP so I installed Windows 7 (dual boot) but my iTunes library is linked to the XP Operating System. Added about 100 digital movies to my iTunes library on Windows 7.  How can I fix the 1st gen mini iPAD to accept the High Def content?  It worked back in Feb 2014 when I added movies, but not this time? Thanks.

    Would you mind opening a new bug on this at bugbase.adobe.com?  Please include your dxdiag report, a specific URL and a link to this forum thread.
    In the meantime, you might want to try our 11.3 beta or rollback to a previous version of the player to see if that resolves the problem.
    Thanks,

  • Should I upgrade iPad (1st Gen) from iOS 4.2.1 to iOs 5.1.1?

    I am using iPad (Wi-Fi only) from last 2 years mainly for web surfing and emails. iOS 5 is sure slick and tempting. Should I upgrade or not? I dont want iPad to get sluggish after update, in that way I am better off with iOS 4.2.1 running smoothly on it. Help pls.!

    I dunno sabatoge.    
    It seems like it would be nice to have ipade 1st gen to get 6.0
    But it would certainly help safari from crashing.     Still.
    I wouldn't,t say that 5.1.1 is the LAST UPGRADE.          Apple might still do something.
