How to Transfer an Application to a New Macbook Pro

Hello everyone.
I just bought a new 13" Macbook Pro with Retina Display. I only want to transfer a few of my applications from my old macbook to my new one, like Microsoft Office and Matlab. How would I go about just transferring these apps, insted of using Migration Assistant.
Thank you.

You can download Office from Microsoft - https://www.microsoft.com/mac/trial - just download the trial version and enter your activation code (which I assume that you still have? It's on the CD sleeve and if you don't have the CD, you may not have the activation code).
Then download MATLAB if you got it from the Internet.

  • How do I remove old applications from my new Macbook Pro that came over when the data on my iMac was migrated to the new computer.

    How do I remove old applications from my new Macbook Pro that were part of the data that was migrated over from my older iMac?
    Thanks

    If the applications were originally drag and drop installations you can simply drag them to the trash and empty. If they were installed by an installer there should be an uninstaller included. If you're not sure you should check with the software developer for instructions. In this case Google can be your friend.

  • How to enable automatic punctuation on a new MacBook Pro with retina?

    Can you tell me how to enable automatic punctuation on a new MacBook Pro with retina? Thanks

    In which application?  (There is no system wide punctuation.) 
    And how is the computer supposed to know what is the correct punctuation?  For example "Let's eat, Mom!" versus "Let's eat Mom!"  (Sort of depends upon whether your computer has weathered the zombie apocalypse, I guess.)

  • How to migrate PowerBook G4 Tiger to new MacBook Pro 15" Lion via ethernet cable? Migration Assistant to old to update, apparently.

    How to migrate PowerBook G4 Tiger to new MacBook Pro 15" Lion via ethernet cable? Migration Assistant to old to update, apparently.

    Ah, a Powerbook. I miss that.  Anyways, I believe that the Powerbook G4 has an Firewire 400/800 port.  Why don't you do that?  It's fast, and you don't have to set up one of those funky reverse wire ethernet cables.  I wouldn't use Migration Assistant, but that's just me.  Too many issues.  I'd start up your brand new MacBook Pro and during the setup assistant, it'll ask you to transfer data from an older Mac.  Using firewire with a Target Disk Mode, it's pretty fast.
    If you have already opened up your new Mac and are using it, then use Migration assistant, but also with the Firewire (preferably 800).

  • Which files do I transfer from external drive to new MacBook Pro?

    Hi there,
    My hard drive went bad on my MacBook Pro, but fortunately I did a weekly backup.
    Unfortunately, it was not a Cloned back up or a Time Machine backup, so I can't seem to be able to use the Migration Assistant to transfer my files to my new MacBook Pro.
    Is there a list of files that I should make sure to copy over?
    I know that I need to copy my apps that aren't already native to Mavericks.  Also, most of the files in my User Folder.  Is it wise to copy the entire library in the User Folder, or should I select individual files and folders?  Is there anything else I should look for?
    If there is a step by step tutorial on this, and I have somehow missed it, please point me on my way. 
    Thanks for any help.

    Is it a bad idea to copy things to the library (the one that is located at  macintosh hd/library)?
    One thing is for sure...I'll be switching to Time Machine or CCC...this is taking a looooong time. 
    So, any ideas out there?
    It is too late, but either a bootable clone (I use SuperDuper!) or a Time Machine backup would have made the transition smooth.
    I do not know of any "cookbook" approach to help you.
    I think I would have reinstalled OS X 10.9.4 and then moved all my data files. I do not know what settings, files, etc. would need to be moved.

  • How quick to export HD footage on new Macbook Pro?

    I have a mid 2007 Macbook Pro (2.4 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 gig memory, 7200 rpm hard drive) and will be editing HD footage soon. I've been told I should avoid it with my laptop though it seems to work fine on the whole.
    What it does seem slow on is exporting and was wondering if someone could help me judge this....
    I exported a Quicktime Movie of 2 mins 59 secs of XDCam EX footage shot at 35 mbs and it took 10 mins 51 secs. (I put a couple of lower thirds on it and few video tracks.) Just how does this hold up against a new Macbook Pro? Is this good or bad?
    Thanks

    do some searching here.  My experience has been to set up my xdcam sequences  to render as prores.  I thought this sped things up as I think every bit of an xdcam sequence has to be rendered even if you're exporting with current settings, but I seem to remember a recent thread saying this wasn't true.

  • I started my iTunes account on my Dell Desktop years ago and want to know how to import my files onto my new MacBook Pro?

    I started my iTunes account on my Dell Desktop years ago and want to know how to import my files onto my new MacBook Pro?

    It should be in Favorites.
    If not, click on the desktop then go to Finder menu > Preferences > Sidebar and tick Music.
    Your Music folder is in Macintosh HD > Users > Your username.

  • How do I transfer my data to my new macbook pro using an external hard drive?

    I've already set up my new MacBook Pro is my issue. It asked me if I'd like to "Migrate" my stuff or use an external hard drive etc but at the time I didn't transfer my data from my old MacBook yet. I was going to manually do it later as I had to wait for my External hard drive to back my old Mac up. Now it's that time and I have no idea how to do it. I believe I've researched best of my ability.
    I feel like I'm asking a pretty dumb question. If I were to just drag all my programs out like my Adobe Suite on to my new macbook pro would that work? I feel like that's just too easy and incorrect. Please and thank you.

    The Adobe suite can be downloaded free, you dont have to copy it at all, under standard CS6 Adobe rules, if you own the suite, you get 2 computers "activated at any one time"  Make sure, if youre not using the older computer, you deactivate the software under the HELP menu in Adobe.
    format the new drive in disk utility ......APPLICATIONS.....UTILITIES.....DISK UTILITIES.......select the external drive and format (if its new and empty!!!) under the ERASE button with Mac OSX extended journaled
    copy all your important stuff from older computer , pics, files, documents, personal anything.
    most of you apps, i ASSUME you bought in the (other than Adobe software, or Office suite, etc etc,..... obviously) in the MAC APP store, so you can reload them on the new computer without copying them , makes things very easy......just open APP STORE, and download what you already bought.
    really the only important things , is copy all important work files, documents, pictures, personal ABC...XYZ......  obviously.
    the migration is about emails, contacts, etc etc etc, also data, just because you passed it by at the time doesnt mean you still cant do it,    go to the SEARCH at menu at top and type in MIGRATION ASSISTANT  to do it again , since you passed it by at first .
    the only thing you NEED / SHOULD copy is all your personal stuff........Applications need to be reinstall from either ONLINE download,.......or from the MAC APP STORE,........  you cant just copy the apps over (in most cases) and toss them onto the new computer
    Nahh, there are no dumb questions, just dumb mistakes because you DIDNT ask any questions, and we all make those here and there.

  • How do i transfer files from pc to new macbook pro running yosemite

    I want to transfer documents, pictures and iTunes library from Dell pc running Windows Vista to new MacBook pro running Yosemite.

    Use the Migration Assistant, or move the files manually through file sharing or an external drive. If you've already set the MacBook Pro up and use the Migration Assistant, the files will be put into a different user account.

  • How to get my itunes on my new macBook pro

    Howw do I get my itunes on my new MacBook Pro?

    The application should be pre-installed.  If you mean transfer a library:
    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
