I'm having trouble migrating files from my MAC G5 Tower 2.3 gig hz. to new Mac Mini i7

I want to migrate the applications from my G5 Tower to my new Mac Mini. The mini says that Migration Manager on the G5 needs to be updated. I do an update and nothing comes up. I looked at the apple site and there is nothing either.

You need to use the Migration Assistant in the Utilities folder of your Mini, not the one on the G5.

I am having trouble transferring files from an old MacBook (2007) to a MacBook Air over a wireless network. The connection was interrupted and the time was over 24 hours. Is there a better way to do this? I'm using Migration assistant.

I am having trouble transferring files from an old MacBook (2007) to a MacBook Air over a wireless network. The connection was interrupted and the time was over 24 hours. Is there a better way to do this? I'm using Migration assistant. The lack of an ethernet port on MacBook air does not help.

I am having trouble moving files from iPhoto to a thumb drive. Sometimes I can move 20 photos next time I can only move 2 photos or 0---this is during the same session. I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet. Can someone please help?

I am having trouble moving files from iphoto to a thumb drive. During the same session sometime I can move 10 photos at a time, the next time I can only move one photo and sometime no photos will move. I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet. I was using a MacBook Pro and had no problems like this. I then upgraded to the MacBook Pro with Retina Vision and this is the computer I am having problems with. Can anyone please give me a suggestion in how to fix this problem. THANK YOU.

iPhoto problems should be posted in their forums.
I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet.
Needs clarification. You upload from your computer to the internet & download from a website/internet to your computer. So which are you trying to do? Either way, sounds like a browser issue. You need to post in the forum of whichever browser you are using.

I'm having trouble connecting Brother DCP197c to Mac Mini - it worked before Yosemite

I'm having trouble connecting Brother DCP197c to Mac Mini - it worked before Yosemite.
I have downloaded drivers from Brother
I have tried searching for the printer once the drivers have been installed, but nothing...
Not sure what else to do - any helpful suggestions are welcome.
Thank you

I tried the Reset Printer option - it didn't work at first but then I decided to download the drivers again... and now all is fine and dandy.
Thanks for your help

HT4413 Migrating files from old mac using Sata ide adapter

Im trying to migrate files from my old mac hard drive (old mac isnt working- just hooked up hard drive to sata ide adapter) --- when I go to Migration Assistant, "select your disk" it just keeps thinking, it doesnt pull anything up. When just plugging in the sata adapter, it doesnt come up automatically to run either. I have used this adapter before with this old harddrive, so I know it works (I had help the last time)....I just cant figure it out this time. Please help

You cannot use Migration Assistant. When you connect the old HDD, does it appear on the desktop of the MBP. If it does, you will have to transfer the files manually.
If not, does it appear in Disk Utility? Post a screen shot such as this:
Ciao.

I am having trouble copying files from disk to disk, help.

I have a Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5 running Tiger 10.4.3. I am having a problem copying files since I installed Tiger. I am trying to copy from drive "LaCie d2 195 GB", this is a Firewire 800 external drive, to drive "250GB HD", this is an internal drive. The folder that I am having trouble with this morning has 16 PhotoShop files inside of it, it is 768.5 MB. I get this message:
The finder canot comlete the opperation because some data in "Black Valve 3.psd" could not be read or written. (Error code -36)
I tried to open the file in PhotoShop and it would not open, I had to force quit PhotoShop twice to make PhotoShop to close. I opened a copy of the same file with PhotoShop, that was in another folder on drive "250GB HD" and replaced the file on drive "LaCie d2 195 GB". I opened the newly saved file from drive "LaCie d2 195 GB" with PhotoShop with no problem.
To test the time needed I coppied the same folder from "250GB HD" to my startup drive in 48 seconds. Next I copied the folder a second time from "LaCie d2 195 GB" to the "250GB HD", it took 10 minutes and 54 seconds.
My question is do you think the drive is bad or might I reformat "LaCie d2 195 GB" and make it work better?

Error code -36 is an i/o error. That usually means that the computer is having a problem reading or writing the file you're working with, which in turn usually means that the drive has a problem. A sudden slowdown of the magnitude you meantion usually means a severely damaged directory or physical damage to the disk. I'd run a disk fixer such as Disk Utility or Disk Warrior on the slow drive. If it reports problems which can't be fixed, which I suspect it will, I'd back everything up. I just had a LaCie 250GB drive die on me with similar problems (i/o errors, very slow access) and returned it under the warranty.

Migrating files from Power Mac G4 to iMac Intel Core 2 Duo machine.

I'm hoping someone can help me figure this out.
I have a Power Mac G4 that runs OS X 10.2.8. I just got an iMac Intel that runs 10.5.2. Both machines have firewire ports but when I have them connected and try to turn on my G4 while holding down the "T" key, the G4 starts to boot up--then it shuts down.
Does anyone have any idea why this keeps happening? Or, alternatively, is there a way for me to transfer files from my G4 to my iMac without using firewire or a flash drive?

Click here for information; the position of the hard drive on the G4's ATA bus needs to be changed. If it is a SCSI drive, FireWire Target Disk mode cannot be used and the items need to be migrated by hand or the drive placed in an enclosure.

Transfering files from old mac mini to new mac mini

I just purchased a new mac mini intel duo OSX 10.4.10, with which I am using my existing monitor, keyboard and mouse. I want to transfer important files and software from my old original mac mini without having to purchase a whole new set of peripherals, which seems to be indicated when the set up assistant directs connecting the CPU's with firewire cable. Please advise. Thanks.

No need for a second set of peripherals. Plug the firewire cable into both computers and the keyboard into the old Mac and start it up in FireWire target mode (hold the T key while turning it on). Now unplug the keyboard and connect it to the new one. Start up the Migration Assistant and go.

How do I move iWeb files from my Mac Mini to my Macbook Air?

Just bought a new Macbook Air and trying to work on websites I created on Mac Mini - cant seem to figure out how to import them into my Macbook Air

Quit iWeb, go to Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb and try double clicking the domain file.
Also highlight it and click the get info button.
In the info window under Sharing & Permissions, make sure you have Read & Write Privileges.

HT4796 Transfer files from older mac mini to new macbook pro: incompatible ports

I have an older Mac Mini with only USB ports. I just bought a MacBook Pro with thunderbolt and USB 3 ports. I need to transfer my data to my new MacBook Pro using the Migration Assistant but the direct connection ports are not compatible. How can I do this?

Use FireWire, Ethernet, or wireless. The first two can be adapted to a Thunderbolt port.

Troubles with File sharing on Mac Mini Server

Hi
Experience crash behavior of 10.6 server on my Mac Mini with DataBox connected containing all kind of data, except the system software which is installed on the internal hard drive. All my shared volumes, about 10, generating more or less regular (about every 30 minutes) the server preferences to crash.
The two entries in the console log are always to same for all shared volumes I have:
19.02.10 00:07:18 Server Preferences53715 XSActionManager: Removing queued action (Zugriffsrechte lesen) due to coalescing (readSettingspath/Volumes/DataBox 2/Dumy)
19.02.10 00:07:18 Server Preferences53715 The shared folder 'Dumy' has custom file system ACLs which cannot be displayed. Editing the permissions may replace any custom ACLs.
Once a day, the console log shows for all services running on the server:
19.02.10 05:37:17 Server Preferences53715 Error: The server 'Dumy.com' reported an error while processing a command of type: 'readSettings' in plug-in: 'servermgr_accounts'. Error: Error Domain=XSActionErrorDomain Code=408 UserInfo=0x107e2c650 "A network error occurred"
Did anybody have a good idea how to overcome this and how to decode the "UserInfo=0x107e2c650"
Thanks for taking care.

If I understand your question correctly, is there a reason you've replaced the integrated MySQL within Mac OS X Server with a second MySQL database implementation? (That's almost inherently going to get tangled; you'll need to shut off the default implementation.)
Or is this a Perl module you've loaded and that is now tipping over? If you haven't replaced MySQL here, then have you started MySQL and run some tests with the database itself? This to make sure MySQL is operational, and that the problem you're working on is in the Perl pieces and not in the MySQL layer?

I am having troubles receiving files from my phone with Bluetooth

So, I am trying to send pictures from my phone to my MacBook Pro via Bluetooth. I have looked at other topics saying under "Sharing" in System Preferences I just have to check the bluetooth part and it will work but it still doesnt work. The only trouble I am having really is finding the files that are sent. I have it set to go to my Documents but I cant find it there. Any help would be great.
Thanks

Iphone supports bluetooth for stereo headsets/speakers, telephone headsets/handsfree devices, some peer-to-peer apps from the app store, some keyboards and tethering where provided by the carrier.
Other than this, it will not connect to any phone/device/computer/etc.

I am having trouble importing files from file sharing in the same household. I have followed the tutorials but do not have the tab at the bottom of Itunes "Import to library"

When I go to file sharing on Itunes, I am unable to import files to my itunes. I can play them, but am unable to move them to my library. I have been through the tutorial and when I get to "show menu at the bottom of library" there is no menu. I do not have the tab "items not in my library" or "import" I have been through the upper tab and see no option in the view menu and have also consolidated the files. Any suggestions?

Having trouble exporting file from After Effects CS5.5

I am trying to add some titles to a Multi Camera mix I have finished. I have exported my multi cam that I created in Premiere Pro as an MPEG.
So hears what I have done:
- open After effects
- create new composition (HD 1080x1440- length 2:16 (so clip fits)
- I place my clip in the time line the type some text.
- in the effects bar I click the roll up and select "Browse Presets" which opens adobe bridge
- I apply my effects and they play back in elements fine...
When I try to export my clip as a Premiere Pro Project it doesnt keep my animated txt when I open it. Says it does not support the presets. his
Con someone please help me export this project? Getting very frustrating. I need it as a High Res HD file

Create the titles in After Effects without the MPEG. (Or if you must use it as a reference, go ahead and do so, and then when you're done creating the title, delete the MPEG.)
Then go back to PP and select File>Dynamic Link>Import After Effects Composition... Navigate to the AE project that has the title, and bring in that composition. It will appear in your bin as a clip. Then you add it to the sequence and export the completed video with titles.
