How to Transfer Preferences (Passwords, etc.)

When running Safari 2.0.4 and transferring it from one Mac to another, how do I transfer things like Password settings, so I don't have to #$($($#%(@!! re-enter all of them again?
Thank you and enjoy the leftovers.

This forum is intended for issues with & discussion relating to Apple's applications "Mail" & "Address Book." You will get better results posting your problem to a more appropriate forum area, like Safari or Installation & Setup.
That said, make sure you are complying with Apple's license agreement (one copy of the OS purchased per Mac) & use Migration Assistant if appropriate to transfer all your prefs, etc. to a new Mac.

How to transfer metadata (tags etc) from Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 to A P Elements 8

I have just bought the Adobe Elements 8. I was told that this product was the upgrade product from the trial version of Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. Can't find a clear solution in this forum of how to transfer the metadata to the Adobe Elements 8 and continue the indexing with the latest product. Hopefully somebody can help.

If you still have your 3.2 psa catalog in your "My Catalogs" folder, try
downloading PSE5 from here:
http://www.johnrellis.com/photoshop_elements_5.0_trial_version.exe.
PSE5 should be able to find your catalog and you can convert it into PSE5.
If that doesn't work, it may be because you weren't able to run "reconnect
all missing files" in PSA3.2 before attempting the conversion. If all your
photos were still connected, this should work. Then you can open PSE8 and
convert PSE5 into PSE8. Do a "reconnect all missing files" in PSE5 before
you do the conversion. Even though all my files were connected when I
converted PSA2 into PSE5, PSE5 had about 30 unconnected photos.
Good luck!

Multi-Machine Blueprint- How to share IPs, passwords, etc..

I am trying to configure a multi-machine deployment in Application Director. I want the machines to have each others IPs, db passwords, and things like that. So they can all run together in a little environment hosting apps and websites. I am looking for help on how to share these variables with all the VMs in the blueprint. I see some out of the box examples in App D, but I don't find a properties dictionary or any docs that explain how to accomplish this. I have attached a pic to show what VMware has done out of the box. Notice the "appserver_node_ips" and the text in the value column.
Does anybody know how to set this up or where to get info that explains these properties and their options?

You can use component dependencies to share property values between components. E.g.
Say I have a node which will have 2 app components on it.
Component c1 has properties
p1
p2
Component c2 has properties
p3
p4
p1copy
p2copy
If you look in the upper right of the Blueprint builder there is a chain icon which lets you define dependencies between components (either on the same nodes or different ones)
With a dependency in place between my example components (c2 depends on c1) we can then bind the p1copy property value in c2 to the value in c1 in the following notation
self:c1.p1
This expression breaks down as
<node name>:<component name>:<property name>
Quite simple and very powerful
Also, there are some built-ins for each node such as
self:ip
self:hostname
etc.
This is all mostly in the docs but you'll wrap your head around it pretty quickly if you play about with it

To make it possible to encrypt and decrypt , keys has to be exchanged , of course i can use SSL but i need to have a certificate for it and i dont want to , therefore keys has to be exchanged and we got same problem as before ( client or server sends a key in plaintext )
there are some special algorthims for keys exchange securely , but i cannt find it

How to transfer apps/contacts, etc.

If this is an obvious answer, please go easy on me. I am so not tech savvy at all.
I have an iphone 4s through AT&T. I may come to regret this (because I'm happy with AT&T and I've heard Sprint's network *****), but because of an unbelievable deal through my brother in law who works for Sprint, I am switching to an iphone 4s through them. But how do I get all of my stuff off my current iphone? Apps, contacts, music, etc?
Thank you!

I have a laptop Mac and an Ipad, and would like to transfer pictures, videos, etc from the ipad to the Mac but not from the Mac to the Ipad, how can I set up the iCloud in both devises to do so?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your best method would be to connect via USB and transfer that way, since videos are not transferred using photostream.
However you can stop photos on your mac being added to photostream in the iPhoto preferences > photostream by unchecking the automatic upload box.

I am trying to install an app. When I click install, my old gmail account shows and asks for my password etc but I have a new gmail account that is associated with my apple id. How can I get it to default to the new gmail?

I am trying to install an app in my iphone. When I click Install, my old gmail account comes up for verification and it asks for my password etc. I dont use this account anymore and have a new gmail account that is associated with my apple account. How can I get the new gmail to default when I am trying to install apps?

Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID.

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.

How do I transfer pictures, music, etc to another account on the same Macbook?

I needed to create another user on my MacBook, but am not sure how to transfer my pictures, music, etc from my other account to this one. Any ideas? Thanks!

Thanks Carolyn,
Unfortunately, there isn't an IMPORT option in Adobe Bridge 6.
There must be a way to do this, otherwise any photo that is in iPhoto would not be able to be worked on in Photoshop!
Or am I going crazy?
Thanks again

I just bought an iPhone5
To ensure my old iPhon4 was backed up i...
1. Deleted the iPhone4 backup from iTunes prefs(devices)
2. I then sycnched the iPhone4 to get a new backup of the old Phone.
I then installed my new iPhone5 from the fresh backup of the old iPhone4
This way i got my new iPhone5 exactly as my old iPhone4
Screens all looked the same, EVERYTHING the same.
Some minor adjustments were needed afterwards.
Hope this helps.

How to transfer files(pdfs/music.etc)between two pcs

how to transfer files(pdfs/music.etc)between two pcs?

Yes, you pretty much just drag and drop or copy and paste depending on which way you like better. It is pretty much like connecting an external hard drive. Just find the files you want and copy them over to your other computer.
This is one of my favorite features from Macs. It's very simple to do and because it's Firewire even large files transfer over very quickly.

The camera roll is not part of the sync process at all.
You should be importing these photos to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. Youc an organize them on your computer and sync the to the iphone if you wish.
The photos sync from the computer to the iphone is one way.
The iphone mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.
