How to transfer referenced masters from one harddrive to a new one

Hi,
I have about 1 TB of masters located on an external drive. I want to transfer these masters to a new 2 TB drive.
Even though I copied the masters to the new drive and renamend the volume just like the old one, Aperture is unable to locate the masters on the new external drive.
What's the trick? And no, I don't want to use the "relocate masters" or "locate referenced files ..." feature for these 10th of thounds of images.
Thank you.

And no, I don't want to use the "relocate masters" or "locate referenced files ..." feature for these 10th of thounds of images.
That is too bad , for "File > Relocate Original files" is the built in way to do it. You simply have to let Aperture move the files - how else should it keep track of the location of the original files?
Mount both drives.
Select all referenced images in the Browser  at once, for example from the "Photos" view.
Use "File > Relocate originals" and select a folder on your new drive; set a subfolder format and naming format.
Now Aperture will move the originals and hopefully know afterwards were they have gone to.
If you absolutely must move the files on your own, you will have to go thrpough the painful procedure of reconnecting them to their original files, to point Aperture to the new location.

  • How to transfer printer settings from one Mac to another (both OSX)?

    Hello, I have not found a detailed description on how to transfer printer settings from one Mac to another.
    My issue is that I have a Mac G5 with 3 different settings saved as "presets" for the same printer. This works great, since the posters I print (on the large format printer) need different margins and different paper at times.
    This G5 is basically retired and only used for printing. G5 has OSX 10.3.9
    I have a MacPro as its replacement (OSX 10.4.11).
    The MacPro has all my apps and other settings setup to my liking.
    I found several links via Google saying copy this folder or directory, but I am not sure I did it correctly. I don't see the "presets".
    I tried launching the Migration Assistant (I hope that's the correct name), but was concerned the settings on the new MacPro would be overwritten with ALL the old stuff on the older G5. I did not start the transfer process because of this.
    If someone would list the steps needed to accomplish the transfer of printer settings or advise if this is possible, then I would be very grateful! The previous user of the G5 I am using was a "Genius" and I don't know how he created these "preset" choices.
    Thanks!

    Hi SCChelpdesk, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    I found several links via Google saying copy this folder or directory, but I am not sure I did it correctly. I don't see the "presets".
    This is the File that holds that info on Tiger, not certain on Panther...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.print.custompresets.plist
    After moving, you very well might have to change the Owner's Permissions within Get Info window, then log out/in.
    I tried launching the Migration Assistant (I hope that's the correct name), but was concerned the settings on the new MacPro would be overwritten with ALL the old stuff on the older G5. I did not start the transfer process because of this.
    MA would transfer the info, but/and, if the user that had that info had the same Shortname as on the new one, it'll demand you give it a new Shortname to use... but then those settings would be transferred to that new user on the new machine. I think the 1st one will work though.
    The previous user of the G5 I am using was a "Genius" and I don't know how he created these "preset" choices.
    We can go through that way if you like... not all that hard.

  • How to Transfer the iPhone from one computer to another Win XP

    All
    I got my wife a new macbook pro, running Windows XP prof. She has an iphone 3G with 16 GB memory running 3.0.1. So..she wanted to transfer the sync function from her PC to her macbook. Of course, Apple was of NO help at all (but did want to charge us $69.95 since her iphone is out of warranty, and this was an iphone not a mac problem, hmmm..). Took me lots of digging, but here is how you transfer you iphone from one computer to another:
    1. Move you itunes library from the old computer to the new one. To do this, you do NOT just copy it. This is as good a link to use as any to see how to do it, but search the internet and you can find instructions:
    http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-12519_7-10242259-49.html
    2. Transfer your applications you have purchased to the new computer. To do this, open itunes in the new computer, hook up your phone and click on File>transfer purchases (from itunes store) to computer. This will move your applications to the new computer.
    3. Export your MS outlook calendar, contacts, notes, etc. to the new computer by saving each of these categories as a PST file (file>export>then choose the category and type of file)...and then copy these PST files to your new computer and import them into MS outlook.
    4. Copy your playlists from itunes on your old computer to your new computer. This link may be helpful or search the internet again if you need to:

    5. Now...the important part...how to transfer all your settings from the iphone to the new computer....this is the part that was hard to find online, but finally got it: NOTE: THE BACKUP THAT ITUNES MAKES BACKS UP THE APPLICATION SETTINGS BUT NOT THE APPS SO THIS IS WHY YOU NEED TO TRANSFER THE APPS TO THE NEW COMPUTER. The settings have all the data you put into your apps, email settings, preferences, etc...so its a huge time save to transfer these to the new computer also.
    -Sync your iphone with your old computer to have a backup in case you mess up...in that case you can restore from your old computer and start over
    -Plug your iphone into the new ocmputer and start itunes. It will detect your phone (I assume you have already authorized your new computer to use the library and playlists and apps that you moved)
    -Right click on the "iphone" on the left bar...you will see a popup menu...click on "BACKUP". Let it backup your iphone to the new computer. It will NOT sync the phone
    -When the backup is done....copy the backup file to a temp directory to be safe. The backup is located in "documents and settings">user name>applications>apple computer>mobile sync. If you cannot see it, you need to open windows explorer (not internet explorer) and go to tools>folder options>view and click on "show hidden files and folders" Note YOU CANNOT JUST COPY THE BACKUP FROM THE OLD COMPUTER TO THE NEW COMPUTER AS SUGGESTED ON SOME WEB SITES...THIS DOES NOT WORK, ITUNES WILL NOT IDENTIFY THE BACKUP EVEN IF YOU PUT IT IN THE FOLDER IN THE NEW COMPUTER THAT MIRRORS THE FOLDER LOCATION IN THE OLD COMPUTER.
    -OK now you are ready...click restore on the iphone and restore the phone to factory settings. This will happen in a few minutes (10-15 mins).
    -The phone will reboot and itunes will recognize the phone again...as a restored phone. It will then ask you if you want to restore it from the backup..say YES. You then need to go through all the itunes tabs and click on everything you want to sync to the phone (playlists, movies, podcasts, ringtones, etc). Once you are done going thru the tabs click "apply" and the sync will start. Go out, to a movie, to bed, whatever because it will take hours to sync.
    -Once the sync is done...voila...your iphone has been moved with ALL the settings to the new computer. Check it. Then you can delete the backup you put into the temp folder if it is OK
    -Deauthorize your old computer
    This worked for Win XP...should work for Vista. The whole process took many hours so don't rush through it (i'm guessing 12 hours total work).

  • How to transfer Lightroom settings  from one catalog to another?

    Lightroom 5. I have combined two catalogs into one "Master Catalog" per Julian Kosts tutorial ( http://tv.adobe.com/watch/adobe-evangelists-julieanne-kost/lr3-merging-individual-lightroo m-catalogs-into-a-master-catalog-/ ) without incident. However, my presets are not to be found. Could there be other issues? How Do I properly get these presets into my Master Catalog?
    How to transfer Lightroom settings  from one catalog to another?

    Nevermind.
    Per the turorials, this is suppose to occur automatically.
    In the rare event that it does not, forced by lack of support through Adobe or the forums, I am relagated to resolve my problem the old fasjion way. Guessing at a solution of dragging and dropping (risking overwritting current the newer LR5 files (careful now).
    I love the product but trying to get problem resolution here has been disapointing.
    I'd like to retract this entire question session.

  • Re :- How to Transfer GL Balance from One A/c to Another Account

    hii gurus
    please tell me  how to transfer GL balances from one GL Account to another GL Account. Could u tell me T- Code for the same.

    Hello
    We transfer GL account balance from one GL a/c to another GL a/c in the following situations.
    When the GL a/c need to be maintained in Open item Management, say GL a/c belongs to a Balance sheet item but you have forgot to check the Open Item Management check box and made entries to that particular GL a/c.
    In this situation you can’t activate the Open item Management when the A/C is having balance, so first u need to make the GL a/c zero balance and than check Open item Management check box, follow the following steps.
    Create another dummy GL a/c, say ABC and the GL a/c which you want to make zero balance is having Dr Balance. Now make a posting using FB50 or F-02, you Dr the ABC GL a/c and Cr the other GL a/c so that the GL a/c balance becomes zero, now go to GL master and check the Open item Management check box. And again make posting through F-02 Crediting the ABC GL a/c and Debiting the other GL a/c.

  • How to transfer the tables from one file group to another file group in SQL 2008.?

    Hello all,
    I have few issues regarding the transfer of the tables from one file group to another file group  in SQL 2008 and also How can we  backup
    and restore the particular database based on file group level.
    Let’s say I have a tables stored within the different FG. such as
    Tables                                                    
      File group
    Dimension tables                                              
                                                                     Primary

    Well after all my full day research on this topic had paid off, I finally got the solution and am so happy to research on these things. It makes
    us feel really happy after all our research and hard work doesn't goes as waste.
    Finally I got what I am looking for and want to make sure that I am able to transfer the tables from DEFAULT_FG to another FG without tables
    having clustered index on that tables .
    With the help of the link below I finally got my solution where Roberto’s coded store procedure simply works for this.
    Really thanks to him for his great post and thanks to all for your response and your valuable time.

  • How do I transfer old masters from a vault to a new machine

    I have Aperture Masters on an old iMac, saved into a vault on an external hard disk . I bought a new iMac and want to bring the originals from my old machine onto the new machine.
    Presumably, I can download them from the vault to the new machine, but I'm not sure how.
    So far, I've managed to import versions onto the new machine but not masters. I'm terrified of doing the wrong thing and losing thousands of vital photos, so any help greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Tell us what it is you're doing to get the versions.
    Was the old library managed or referenced? If you used a referenced library, your masters were not backed up to the vault.
    If you used a managed library, restoring from a vault is straight forward. Just launch Aperture on the new iMac then choose
    File>>Vault>>Restore Library then tell Aperture where the vault is. You might want to create a new blank library before you start.
