How to transfer photos from Imac to Macbook Pro using firewire?

What is the best way to transfer photos from my Imac to Macbook Pro using firewire?

Put one of the computers in Target Disk mode by holding down the T key while your computer is starting. By doing this, the hard drive of the computer you put in Target Disk will appear as an external drive in the other computer, so just open a Finder window and choose the other computer's hard drive in the sidebar.
Then, just go to the folder where your pictures are and copy them to your computer or to the Mac in Target Disk mode, depending on the computer you put in Target Disk

  • How to transfer photos from itouch to macbook pro

    Hello,
    long story short, my iphoto library got deleted before the transfer was complete to aperture.......i now have 2000 corrupted photos. i only have one back up. ther are all still on my itouch (4th gen with 4.3.5). i need a way to transfer them to my macbook pro (mid 2009 2.53 ghz running lion 10.7.1) i have tried just imported via iphoto and aperture but all it does is transfer the files that my ipod has saved on it, the camera roll i think its called. what would be the best way to get all of them?

    The backup of the ipod only contains the photos from the camera roll. You might be able to transfer the other photos using 3rd party software like Touchcopy for example.

  • How to transfer music from iPhone to macbook pro using Yosemite

    Hello,
    I am wanting to transfer all of my music and playlists (including music downloaded from internet) from my iPhone 5 (iOS 8.1.1) to my macbook pro which is using Yosemite (10.10.1) How would I do this?
    Thanks!

    Syncing will only transfer music purchased from the iTunes store to your computer.  Music from other sources can only be transfered from your phone to your computer using 3rd party software such as PhoneView (Mac) or Touch Copy (PC or Mac).

    Connect the iPad to your MBP and open iTunes.  In the photos section of your iPad in iTunes you can choose selected albums, Events or the entire iPhoto library to sync to your iPad.

    how to install software from imac to macbook pro

    Are you using one of the newer iMac's with no DVD drive? If so, you can either get an external CD/DVD drive (any make - doesn't have to be Apple) or, if you have another Mac on the same network that has a CD/DVD drive you may be able to do it by turning on 'DVD or CD Sharing' on that Mac (System Preferences>Sharing). Hopefully you'll see the disk on the Mac without the DVD drive and be able to install from there.

  • Move Photos from IMac to  Macbook Pro

    Hello,
    I have a late 2009 iMac, 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB memory, OSX 10.10.01, 258 GB of free memory.
    I have 90 GB of photos on this Mac and I would like to transfer them to a new Macbook Pro. The Processor is 2.5 GHS Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, OS X 10.10.01, 456 GB free memory. Is this a reasonable idea? I don't see much on Migration assistant anymore. I am looking for a solution. Thank you in advance for any response. I read a few of the questions from others last night and just want to add, you people are Saints.

    468 GB of free memory.
    Just so we're all using the correct terms:  you mean 468 GB of free space on your hard drive, right.  That's not considered memory.
    How are the pictures stored on your old Mac?  Are they in an iPhoto Library? If so connect the two Macs via an LAN, Target Disk Mode or other means and drag the iPhoto Library package from the old Mac to the Pictures folder on the new Mac. 

  • Transfer files from iMac to MacBook pro

    I have an iMac (5.1) and have just ordered a new MacBook pro.  I have everything from my iMac backed up via SuperDuper and Time Machine on an external hard drive.  What is the best way to transfer all my files (mainly music and photos) to my new MacBook Pro ?  Does, for example, the fact that my iMac is running Snow Leopard and MacBook Pro will have Lion make any difference to the best way to transfer everything ?   Also, one relevant problem is that iPhoto on my iMac has also gone into meltdown and will not even open so i do not know if this complicates how I transfer my iphoto library to my new computer. Grateful for any help and advice.

    You can transfer your files using Time Machine perfectly, and you won't have problems because it doesn't matter the version that your old Mac have. You shouldn't have issues with your iPhoto library, because the problem is the app

  • Transfer photos from iPad to Macbook Pro??

    Hi All,
    My daughter has an iPad which I want to download some of the images off to my MBP.
    - I have tried turning on Airdrop and can't see the iPad.
    - I have tried using 'Image Capture' which sees the iPad but none of the images on it.
    (See images attached).
    What is the easiest way to transfer photos from an iPad to MBP assuming I don't want to Sync the iPad to the MBP? (Just transfer them).
    Macbook Pro 15" - 10.9.5 (Mavericks).
    iPad - iPad Air 5th gen 64GB
    Thanks in Advance.
    Matt.

    Oh, and I also tried iPhoto via USB which doesn't work either.
    Just a thought, but based on the fact that Image Capture and iPhoto did not see any of the images, that leads me to beleive that the images that you are trying to transfer are not in the camera roll on her iPad. You can only import images to iPhoto and Image Capture if the images are in the camera roll album on her iPad. If the images are in Photo Stream, she can save them to the camer roll and then you can import them.mAynced photos cannot be imported using this method.
    If the images were synced to her iPad from another computer, you can use a WiFi transfer app to move the images from her iPad to your Mac. I use this one.

    DropBox would be another way to transfer photos from her iPad to your Mac.

  • How to transfer/migrate from Late 2008 MacBook Pro to MacBook Pro, with retina?

    Is there anyway of directly connecting a Late 2008 MacBook Pro to a MacBook Pro, with retina, in a Target Disk Mode way without having to wait for the magical adapter in July?
    Should I go to the Apple Store, buy a normal MacBook Pro, use it to do the transfer, and return it?
    Thanks to anyone for taking the time to answer.

    There is Setup Assistant when you first boot the new Mac, over wireless it's supposed to migrate for you, however I hear it can take hours and days to complete.
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/MacBook_Pro_Retina_QuickStart.pdf
    Another faster method would be to use the free/donations Carbon Copy Cloner the old Mac to a blank USB3, 2,1 drive, then hook it up to the new Mac and use Setup Assistant (or Migration Assistant) that way, it will think it's another Mac.
    You can also simply drag and drop files into a same named account on the new machine manually from the clone.
    It should take about a hour per 250GB to clone, about another hour for Setup Assistant.
    Over wireless it could take a eternity.

  • How to transfer files from imac to macbook air

    I recently received my macbook air and I was trying to transfer iWork to my new macbook.
    Typically, I have no problems in the transfer process when I have done this before from my iMac to my Powerbook. And now, with the Macbook Air, my iMac tells me that the device isn't connected to the Macbook Air....but it IS showing that it is discovered.
    Sounds very confusing, I know.
    I just need to know how to transfer Pages to my Macbook Air from my iMac.
    If anyone can help, PLEASE DO!
    Thanks!

  • How do i transfer photos from ipad to MacBook Pro about 100

    After update to yosemite i have about 150 photos that are on my ipad and not on MacBook Pro.  Is there a way to sync the photos from ipad to computer

    I did sync thro iTunes so will have to import them where i can find them...yuck
    The synced photos should be in an album in the "Albums" tab of your iPod.
    As long as you did not transfer  the synced photos to your computer do on no account activate "iCloud Photo Library Beta" on your iPad. That will wipe all synced photos from the iPad.
    You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures in the Camera Roll or Saved Photos from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device:
    Email them from the device to yourself.
    Copy them from the emails to your computer.

  • Can a USB cable be used to transfer data from imac to macbook pro

    Unless he is able to
    work on the college computers (Apple) for projects
    and homework on campus he will surely need something

    Yes
    Can anyone tell me if Apples are really superior to
    PCs in graphics?
    For video and graphical work, Macs are generally considered to be the industry standard and what you would work on in the graphics industry.
    I also would like to know if Apples
    are reliable--
    I have used ten or more Macs in our office over the last five years and are still using them all today and all have worked fine.
    how easy are they to install things
    like additional RAM, etc--
    Depends on the model some are easier than others, the PowerMac was very very easy, others are more complex.
    how is Apples
    support---
    Applecare has a good reputation and most people recommend Applecare.
    how does the Apple OS compare to Windows???
    It is not so much a situation of which is better they are different.
    Personally as someone who uses both on a daily basis more and more I prefer using OS X.
    I do understand that Windows has a lot of
    negatives--virus's --loopholes--etc.
    Which is something which is less of an issue on the Mac.
    Has anyone an idea if an Apple can be assembled at
    home??
    No
    I would really like to save some money on an
    Apple, if there is a way.
    Buy a secondhand Mac, but for high-end graphical work you would need a decent Mac.
    One thing that people often forget is how long Macs last.
    I got my PowerMac in 2003 and it is still a really fast computer and I am expecting it to last another three years or more as my main computer.
