HT1349 i need to put the documents from the mac onto the mac book air

i need to put the documents from the mac onto the mac book air. How to I transfer my mac documents and music information to my macBook air?

You have many options.
Network the two Macs
Use a Thunderbolt or FireWire cable and use FireWire Target Disk Mode
Use Setup Assistant when you first set up a new Mac, or Migration Assistant at any time thereafter
Use an inexpensive USB flash drive
Email documents and files to yourself
Use Dropbox or similar service
Those are just a few. If you explain further or reply with the model of your "older" Mac and which OS version it is using, more specific information can be provided.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases

Hi, I have an iTunes account on my laptop set up to work with my old iPod. I now have an iPad and new iPod but set up under a different account- can I put all the songs from my iTunes onto the new devices. Thanks.

Yes
Put all the music on one computer, make sure it is authorized for all accounts, sync.

HT201269 I have years worth of music on my PC that is about to die. If I get an iPad is there anyway to get the music from my PC onto the iPad? I have the iCloud but my understanding is only music actually purchased from iTunes lives int he cloud.

I have years worth of music on my PC that is about to die. If I get an iPad is there anyway to get the music from my PC onto the iPad? I have the iCloud but my understanding is only music actually purchased from iTunes lives int he cloud. I have music that was legally purchased and loaded to my iTunes account from cd's that I no longer own. I need a new laptop and am deciding between the iPad and the Mac book. I use the computer for music, photos, and web - nothing else and nothing fancy. I don't know that there is a way to save my huge music library without saving it to an external hard drive and then loading it to a new one (does the iPad have a port to plug an external hard drive into?)

First, you would need to make a backup of the entire iTunes folder on the PC. You could get music to the iPad if the PC was still functioning, or you would have to move the music to another computer. An iPad is not a laptop, and does not have a port to plug an external drive into. You can sync music to the iPad from the computer, but you are correct, unless you get iTunes Match, you would need a computer to copy the music to and then sync to an iPad.

I am new to Mac Pro but am purchasing one online. can anyone tell me how to get the information from my Toshiba onto the Mac. there are no stores in the state I live in. Do I need to find a location and will they do a transfer from my I Tunes etc?

I am new to Mac Pro and am purchasing one online tonight. Can anyone tell me how to get my information - Itunes, photos, and videos transferred onto the Mac from my Toshiba. the state I live in doesn't have an Apple store but I could take it to Minneapolis when I go. Any ideas where to begin?

You might profit from a visit to a Minneapolis Apple store. With a brand new Mac, I think they will be most helpful - not just with transferring files, but with other advice as well. And I strongly recommend you invest in a back up drive. The Apple folk can help with that as well.

If you sync your ipod to one computer, then u sync it to another can you get the music from your ipod onto the new computer?

i had my ipod synced to one computer. Then that computer died. i want to add more music from another computer, but i dont want to lose my music now. how can i do this?

No. Music only syncs one way - computer to iPod. You would need to use a third-party utility to transfer music from the iPod to the iTunes Library such as Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac

I need to download Photoshop extended from my account onto a Mac. I originally had a windows based laptop. I live in South Africa now and can only access my account and serial numbers. How do I download???

I need do download Photoshop Extended from my adobe account. I bought it in 2011 when I live in Canada and was using a windows based laptop. I now live in South Africa and use a Mac. I can only access my products and serial numbers. How do I download???

As long as you have a legitimate serial number, you can just download a trial version of the version you need from the public Adobe site, install it and input your valid serial number upon installing it.
You will need to apply all available updates, as all downloads are of the original release.
The Extended and the Standard version of Photoshop are one and the same binary. It's your serial number that makes it Extended or Standard.

How can I put my music from my iPad onto the iCloud so I can use it on my Mac book?

And your music has not been purchased from the iTunes Store, consider to sign up for iTunes Match to have all your music in the cloud.

How can I retrieve my pages documents from another account in the iCloud

I was using pages in my ipad. Then I bought a Mac Pro and signes with a new iCloud account. In order to sync it with my ipad I deleite the previous iCloud account from the divise and started it with the new account. I previously choose to keep all the documenta before deleten the account.
Now when opened pages I can not see any of my previous doccuments

You'll need to copy the Pages documents from the old iCloud account to the new one. To do this, go to iCloud.com from your Mac and sign into the old account. Launch Pages beta and confirm that your documents are still there. Assuming they are, select them, then click the gear icon on the menu bar and choose Download Documents and choose the Pages format. This will download copies of the documents to your Mac. Drag the downloaded documents to your desktop and double-click on them to extract them from the .zip files. Next, sign out on iCloud.com and sign back into your new iCloud account. Launch Pages beta in the new account, then drag and drop the documents from your desktop to the Pages beta window to upload them to the new account. You can now access the documents from devices signed into your new account.

You should migrate your iTunes library instead:

Configuring the file server in KM and access,edit the documents from it

Hi friends,
My requirement is to configure the file server where u will have all the structured and unstructured data stored here. So users can share the documents and create, edit ,save the documents from the file server itself.
In KM what kind of file servers are there apart from the one it supports by default.
Can anybody pls provide the configuration steps regarding how to configure the file server i KM.
To configure the file server is webDAV protocol required?
Points would be assigned for the helpful answer.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Sireesha.

Dear Sireesha,
Well KM supports mostly all the File server however we have some restrictions with Novell FS and Sharepoint Server from Microsoft. Like versions and other meta data have some issues.
Alsothough to configure a File Server you need to first create a FS repository Manager. Details can be found in the help guide:

Yes WebDAV protocol is required here.
You can create WebDav RM as well.
