i transfered all of my info from my old mac to my new one..but the show up as 2 different user accounts..how can i make it only one??

Log in from one account, drag the other account's home folder from the Users folder to the desktop, provide your administrator password, move anything you want into the corresponding location of the current account's home folder, and use the Accounts pane of System Preferences to remove the other account. You cannot delete a logged-in account or the only administrator account on the machine from System Preferences.

I just migrated everything from an old Mac to a new one, but now Acrobat Professional will not launch. I get an error message: "Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional cannot be launched at this time......"

I just migrated everything from an old Mac to a new one, but now Acrobat Professional will not launch. I get an error message: "Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional cannot be launched at this time......"

I used "Migration Assistant" to send everything from my old mac to my new which included my copy of Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional. I tried downloading an update but when it asked me to find the version of acrobat to replace it was grayed out and I was unable to select it. My OS is 10.9.4

I transferred all my Itunes music from an old PC to my new one with Windows 7. Now I cannot edit "artist" or anything else for the songs. It is all greyed out and I cannot enter information. Is there any way to correct this problem?

I transferred all of my music from an older PC to my new one with Windows 7. Now I cannot edit selected songs. The information is greyed out and I can't type over it (on all my music except NEW downloads). Can anyone help? I even have a few songs with NO artist tag and I can't write anything in them either.

It's a permissions problem. Try this: right click on your iTunes icon and choose "run as administrator" that might fix it.

How can I transfer all my info from my old mac to a new one?

how can I transfer all my info from my old macbook to my mac mini?
My Mac mini chash about one month ago and I got it back from apple, I didnt have a time michine back up for this one but in my old mac I have almost all my files, so I want to transfer all the data to the Mac mini with no problem

You can use migration assitant which is located in the Utility Folder under Applications. The compters can be connected via ethernet, fire wire, or wifi. My recommendation is not to use wifi.
You run migration assistant on both machines and you can choose to transfer everything or just data.
Another way is to use migration assistant to restore from a time machine backup.

Hi,
Which operating system are you running on?
The date & Time can be displayed by going to the View menu and checking Details - also File Names if you want them displayed.
The Album information is saved within the catalog so it sounds as though you didn't do a catalog backup on the old computer and a catalog restore on the new computer which is the recommended way of transferring elements data. Did you just copy the photos over?

This is a question for my brother, and he has an iMac PPC (he calls it the "ball") from 2003, which has a FireWire port. He wants to get a new iMac, which I see has the Thunderbolt port.
The new iMacs also have a FireWire 800 port, so a FireWire cable will work. The "ball" sounds like a G4 iMac, which has a FireWire 400 port, so either a cable with different plugs or an adapter would be needed.
He has found your very detailed instructions about using Migration Asst
For best results, use Setup Assistant when the new Mac first starts up, not Migration Assistant later on.
to set up the new Mac with everything he currently has on his old Mac.
Since the old Mac is a PPC Mac, he/you probably should not transfer applications -- most 3rd-party apps that work on the old Mac won't work on the new one.
I see the Apple store has a Thunderbolt-Fire Wire cable -- will this do the trick?
It looks like it would, but it's F/W 800, so you'll still need a F/W 400-to-F/W 800 cable and an adapter.
Or, use an Ethernet cable and transfer via network.

I just got my new iPhone 4 today, can I just plug it up to my computer and it will transfer all of my info from my 3g iPhone to the new one or will I lose everything?

I have recently transferred data from my old Mac to my new one. The result was good, but I have 2 users now, whose data I want to merge into 1 single user, so to avoid having to switch from one user to the other to view and use certain files. How to do it

I have recently transferred data from my old Mac to my new one. The result was good, but I have 2 users now, whose data I want to merge into 1 single user, so to avoid having to switch from one user to the other to view and use certain files. How to do it?

Here's an easy way:
Pick the user that you want to eliminate (making sure that the remaining user has administrator privileges) and move all of the data that you want to keep into the Shared folder. Reboot or log out and login to the user you want to keep. Copy all the data from the Shared folder into your account - placing it neatly in folders (Documents, Music, Movies, etc.).
Once the data is moved, log into the account you want to delete just once more to make certain that you've grabbed all the data you want to keep. Log out and log back into your admin account and go to System Preferences>Users & Groups and delete the 'old' user.
That should do it.

I would like to copy all the songs from one Ipod into another. All the songs are into my Itunes account, I tried to drag and drop the songs from the old Ipod to the new one but it doesn't work. Is there a way to do it ?

Hello everybody,
I would like to copy all the songs from one Ipod into another. All the songs are into my Itunes account, I tried to drag and drop the songs from the old Ipod to the new one but it doesn't work. Is there a way to do it ?
I share one Itunes account with other people from my family and one person would like to keep the same songs on the new Ipod as the ones which were on the old one.
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hello Chris,
Thanks for your answer. I was hoping for an easier answer. Too bad there is no drag and drop solution, it would have been much easier.
Thanks for answering so fast.
Bye.

Transferring CS4 from an old Mac to a new one, I get a notice saying "licensing for this product has stopped working" Error 150:30. Don't know what to do? Thanks.

I'm trying to migrate my CS4 from my old Mac to my new one. When trying to open photoshop, i get a message saying "Licensing for this product has stopped working." And "Error: 150:30" I don't know what to do from here. Can someone help me? Thanks.

"Migrating" and/or "transferring" an application is not just asking for trouble but demanding it!
Always install an Adobe application from scratch, from the original media: CD or download.

How do I move apps from an old mac to a new one

I am purchasing a new Macbook Pro after having my old one for six years. I have numerous apps that I have purchased and downloaded over the years. I don't want to loose them and really don't want to have to purchase them again. Can I and how can I move apps from my old Mac to my new one?

Be sure you back your current system up BEFORE you do anything. If you use Time Machine, migration assistant works well.
