  • I want to transfer files from a functioning hard drive in a nonfunctioning MacBook Pro to an external drive. I have an IDE/SATA drive adapter. The files won't fit on the drive for a working computer I have. Can I use it to transfer files to the external?

    Good luck and you are welcome.
    Like I said, I bought one of their inexpensive enclosures and now can use the hard drive just as a source for the files that are on it...my external drives are much larger and faster so I just plug that drive in when I need something from it.
    This one is on sale for $16 http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/ES2.5BPU2S/

  • My iPHone is connected to my iMac, and I want to transfer files from iMace to IPhone. Instructions say to go to iTunes, look under Devices for my Device. I do so, and no devices are listed. How do I get iTunes to recognize my iPhone?

    Make sure your iMac is on 10.6.8 or higher and your iTunes is up to date.  If it is, then restart your computer, open iTunes, then plug in your device.  If it still is not showing up, follow the steps listed here: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

  • I want to transfer files from a Win XP PC to a Mac using Time Capsule via Ethernet connection.  Is this possible?

    I want to transfer files from a Win XP PC to a Mac using Time Capsule via Ethernet connection.  Is this possible?

    Sure.. the PC connects by SMB.. the Mac connects by AFP or SMB..
    But you can simply share SMB directly from the Mac.. there is no need to copy files through the TC. Go to system preference, sharing, and turn on SMB for the folder you want to share files to / from on the Mac.
    Make sure you have a common username and password also helps.
    If you have a TC already can you copy files to it via the windows machine??

  • I want to transfer photos from Droid phone to Mac?

    I want to transfer photos from Droid phone to Mac?

    Ooooo.  I think I can help here.  If you use your cord.  Look at the top of the Android screen where you will see an icon showing the USB.  Slide your finger down so you see USB connection and press.  Change it to Windows Media Sync.   Click OK.   If you don't want anything to happen, change it back to Charge Only when you are through.
    This may allow IPhoto or Finder to find your photos.  If Not, I've sometimes had to restart the Mac.  Use Import on Iphotos.  Sometimes it will show the Droid when the Finder won't.

  • I want to transfer files from my Mac Pro top Mac Air. i'M WRITING A BOOK SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE IT, WHICH IS ON PAGES, COMES ALONG AND IS IN TACT. iS THIS HARD TO DO FOR A SLIGHTLY ELDERLY PERSON WHO WANTS IT DONE RIGHT AND SO THAT I CAN GET TO WORK

    I am buying an Apple Air and want to transfer files including a book I am writing on Pages.
    I am not very tech savy. I have been told, however, by a number of friends I can save $1000 and do this myself.
    I don't mind giving it a whirl, but i don';t want to loose anything in the transfer, And, I was hoping this was a fairly quick, fool-proof, process.
    I have looked into this a bit and was wondering if I need two (2) Ethernet cables? That is,one from the Mac Pro to the Ethernet and one from the Apple Air to the Ethernet? Or, is it one just one cable to the Ethernet? And, if so, from the Apple Pro or the Apple Air to the Ehternet?
    I'm assuming a dsiplay box appears on either or both of the notebooks? Perhaps prompting you to transfer everthing you have on the Apple Pro hard drive to the
    the Apple Air hard drive? Or, to selection files? Dumb question: I assume my book, which is written on Pages is on The Apprle Pro hard drive? Correct? Or is it on a file folder separately?
    I appreciate any feedback yuou may have.
    Again, is it striaghtforward and easy to accomplish?
    Thanks,
    -Larry

    The following may help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5872
    Note that the MacBook Air does not have an ethernet port so you can either use wi-fi if you have that, or you can buy an ethernet adpater such as: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC704ZM/A/apple-usb-ethernet-adapter or you could use an external disk.
    Also, if you took it to a local shop that specializes in Macs the cost shouldn't be anywhere near $1000 for them to assist. More like $100 and could even be free if they sell Macs and you buy the new one there.

  • HT4796 Can I transfer files from a PC to Mac Book Pro using an ethernet connection cable and if so what kind

    Can I transfer files from a PC Windows 8 based operating system to a MAC Book Pro using an ethernet cable and if so what type of cable. The wi-fi system where I am temporarily located is very slow and thus the transfer may take hours.

  • How do I transfer files from my old Power Mac Mini to my new one?

    Oops...thought I had to write the question in the above spot. 
    Question:  How do I transfer my files from my old Power Mac Mini to my new Intel based Mac Mini?  From what I read, I needed a 40/80 cable, which I bought.  However, I only have one monitor. 
    (I tried to copy files onto a blank dvd, but it wouldn't format and kept spitting the disk out) (?)

    Anna,
    Here is a discussion on the same topic that will save some typing:

    Jolly makes a good point about screen sharing.
    I prefer the firewire approach just because I have had more problems with ethernet connections than with firewire connections.  Both options work, firewire has just been easier for me when the operating system on the machines are different.  Read the options and post back if you would like additional coaching.

  • How do I transfer files from windows to i-Mac

    I have just purchased the new i-Mac and wanting to transfer my files - I bought a portable USB 2.0 hard drive that says it is compatible with windows and Mac OS 10.4 or later but when I bought it the sales guy said that before transferring any files i had to format it first on the Mac with FAT32 so it can be used on both machines.  Is this correct as I'm not too sure how to format it - the instructions on the box say that it is Plug-n-Play and ready for immediate use.  Does this mean I should be able to use on both machines?
    Thanks for help! :-)

    found the answer! yay! :-)

  • I am trying to help my mother build her iTunes library.  I want to transfer files from my iTunes to hers.  I have tried HomeSharing, but the "Show/Import" menu buttons are nowhere to be seen on either of our computers.  We have PCs, not MacBooks.

    I want to import some of my iTunes files to my mother's iTunes account so she doesn't have to pay again to get them.  We are going on a trip soon, and she wanted some movies to watch on here iPad.  Some of the movies, I already have.  I can't seem to do anything.  Homesharing has been useless, because while her iTunes can 'see' my iTunes and vice versa, the magic "Show" and more importantly the magic "Import" buttons are nowhere to be seen. How in the **** am I supposed to share my files if I can't import them to her library for her?  I have seen many solutions for people using iTunes on a MacBook, but we don't have MacBooks in our house.  I have a Samsung laptop and Mom has a Gateway laptop, and both operate on Windows 7.  Seriously.  This should not be impossible, but right now, it seems that way.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Will iTunes allow me to do this? I'm not really all that familiar with Windows computers. I have recently had to move to a PC because my $3000 macBook Pro died one month after the warranty was up. How could I get iTunes to accept media from another computer?
