ICal and server upgrade Help please.

Hi folks,
I am running 10.5.2 server on a dual G4 tower and in particular iCal, which has been running very well. I want to upgrade to a new iMac, and so far I have been unable to figure out how to successfully recreate all accounts (only 7) and re-use the account calendars (about 4350 events so far).
The upgrade and migration documents only cover 10.4.10 server going to 10.5 server, not 10.5.2 PPC server migrating to intel 10.5.2 server.
I can't clone as PPC disk format is apm and intel is guid.
Please tell me how to move the accounts from PPC to intel (?export admin and users, import admin and users?) and how to copy the calendars from PPC to intel to keep all the events.
Finally how do you get the individual user icals to reload the calendars once they have been binded by directory utility.
regards and thanks in advance

You don't say what model eMac you have. There are several http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/emac/index-emac.html
I'm guessing it's the 700MHz model since you said it only has 128MB RAM. You can upgrade the OS to Tiger 10.4, but, you need to upgrade the RAM to at least 512MB (1GB would be better). The spec page at the above link has a link to OWC, a good source for RAM.
However, Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available for $129 by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753). For other sources, do a Google search for MA453Z/A (10.4.6), MA190Z/A (10.4.3) and M9639Z/A (10.4) . Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) and not a model specific version (gray) (See Can I use another Mac's system restore disc on my Mac? ). Expect to pay (possibly a lot) more than the Apple list price of $129.
Also check these web stores: http://www.lacomputercompany.com/cgi-bin/rpcart/index.cgi?command=dispitem&type= sku&sku=19521 http://www.allmac.com/shop/index.php?cPath=5_10003
After you install the base 10.4.x, update to the final Tiger version 10.4.11. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Look at this link Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Installing Software Support Page
http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/
You can also download the Tiger Installation and Setup Guide
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/TigerInstall_SetupGuide.pdf
When you upgrade the OS, do it via Archive & Install. See About the Archive and Install feature http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710
Be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings. Also, repair permissions before and after the install.
After you install Tiger, suggest you download & install the Firefox browser for OS 10.4 (freeware) http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
 Cheers, Tom

    I tend to make my playlists right on my ipod. This did not happen for the last 2 years. Just started recently. Did get a new computer recently.

    That is because you got a new computer. You can only sync all media from one syncing computer. You can sync from any computer to iPod using the manual method but that does not sync from iPod to computer.

    Dear all, this is my issue, I have since the beginning (October 2014) with my iPhone 5S, 64GB: My volume control is disabled after plugging in and unplugging headphones, Help Please...

    This should not happen if you have the output volume in System Prefs/Sound set low. Have you tried setting the ITunes player volume at top left a bit lower?

  • Broken Bonjour with Canon MF4350d after 10.6 upgrade - Help Please.

    I have been using a Canon 4350d with no problems with 10.5.8 - including Printer Sharing (Bonjour). Now, after updating to 10.6 (now 10.6.2) I can still print fine, but I have lost all Printer Sharing. All settings appear to be right, and my other macs appear to be printing through the one connected via USB to the printer, but it never goes through. HELP Please. Thank you.

    According to the UFR2 User Guide on page 2-8, the driver can be removed from the Mac by trashing the following folders. Note that you should delete the print queue first, by opening Print & Fax, selecting the MF model in the Printers list and pressing the minus button.
    System Volume > Library > Printers > Canon > UFR2
    System Volume > Library > Launch Agents > jp.co.canon.UFR2.BG.plist
    System Volume > Library > Printers > PPDs > Contents > Resources > en.lproj > CNTD**Z*2.ppd.gz
    (where * indicates the printer model and 2 indicates the language of driver used)
    With these files removed you can then empty the trash, although you may have to open Activity Monitor and stop the 'UFR II Backgrounder' service before you are able to remove all the files from the trash.
    With the v2.10 driver removed you are ready to add another driver. However you need to be aware that the v1.80 driver cannot be used on 10.6. If you were using it previously then it would suggest that the 10.6 Mac was an upgrade from 10.5 rather than a clean 10.6 install. On a clean 10.6 Mac, then v1.80 driver will not operate correctly.
    What you may be able to do is have the v1.80 driver installed on a Mac running Leopard and shared. You may then be able to use the v2.10 driver on the Snow Leopard Mac's to print to the Leopard share using the v1.80 driver. Note that I haven't tried this so I cannot say if this will work for you. Personally I always ensure I get a printer with Ethernet or wireless support so that I can avoid printer sharing...

  • Adding and removing listeners help please...

    hi guys i have a pop up box that adds a listener depedent on a variable.
    like such
         if(upload_typ != 'O' && upload_typ != 'E')
        {RPanel.DSUB.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, DatabaseSend)};
       if(upload_typ == 'O')
        {RPanel.DSUB.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, DataSendOntme)};
        if (upload_typ == 'E')
        {RPanel.DSUB.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, EncumSendVal)}
    how do i remove the listeners? i continue to see examples of removing listeners but yet i dont see what the remove listener functions should do.
      any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Miguel

    In your case, because you can't be sure what listener was added, you can remove them all, and if they have not been added, no harm:
    RPanel.DSUB.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, DatabaseSend);
    RPanel.DSUB.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, DataSendOntme);
    RPanel.DSUB.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, EncumSendVal);
    Alternatively, you could register the ones that actually get added to an object (associative array) and remove only those when necessary.
    If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such. Thanks!

  • Browser cuts off half of table and contents? Help please.

    Hi,
    When viewing the page using some versions of IE7, the area
    where the Virtual tour viewer is and anything within the same table
    is cut in half ! I never even noticed it as I test on a laptop and
    desktop, both running IE7 and Firefox and there were no problems.
    Got 3 emails of totally different people asking where the other
    half of the page is, plus a friends browser does it also.
    The link is
    http://www.cicadastudio.ca/newyork.html
    The virtual tour viewer in the iframe, thumbnails and links
    are in the first big table. This gets cut in half approx after the
    text for each thumbnail so anything to the right is just white. No
    flash/quicktime logos and only half the viewer shows. It still
    works though loading the default panorama!
    The big table below holding regular still images with the
    black background displays correctly. Very strange.
    Does any one else only see half the table or know what may be
    causing it to happen? The most obvious thing would be the iframe
    but this has happed with some of the other pages also and they have
    no iframes on them.
    Thanks
    Andrew

     I see and It only prints half the photo? Interesting...
    What i would suggest doing is this,
    - go to the page/photo on face book where you are trying to print/save from
    - right click on the Photo and ""Save As"", now i would recommend saving them in the " My Pictures" from within the "My Documents" folder
    -Once saved, go ahead and open them up (Pictures)  from within the Folder and not the website, unfortunately, it sounds like the web site is not allowing the full command/picture to be sent through, but being a 3rd party Site We cannot be sure..
    -that is what i would advised to get those to Print Fully and to your Expectations

  • I keep losing my connection from iMac to keyboard and mouse any help please

    I keep losing connection between imac and my mouse and key board.I then have to power off and reboot to get connection can anyone help please!!!!

    Hi
    Update date for anyone who ha suffered with the problem of losing connection to an ext HDD.
    For me, the solution appears to have been achieved by making use of my old 802.11 b&g Airport Extreme base station and my new 802.11 n Airport Extreme Base Station.
    My network is now setup as follows:-
    Airport 802.11 n - 5GHz
    Macbook Black
    Apple TV
    Time Capsule
    Airport Express Base Station
    Airport 802.11 b&g - 2.4GHz
    Playstation 3
    Xbox 360 Elite
    Nintendo Wii
    iPhones
    iPod Touch
    Canon Wi-fi Printer
    iMac G5
    Sony VAIO TX2P
    I connect my ADSL line to both AEBS by ethernet, changed the settings and this has dramatically improved my connection reliability and speed when streaming movies and/or music.
    Through trial & error, I have also discovered that the other problems that I have are connected to situations when restart my Macbook after a shut down or restart and my iPhone is connected. This causes iTunes to start up but due to the restart, the ext HDD is not ready and therefore, ITunes opens its local library - I now just try to remember to use the Option key to choose the library. Finally, if the laptop just runs out of juice, the ext HDD doesn't have the chance to have a friendly handshake before losing its connection. When I restart, the connection does to the HDD fails and I have to restart AEBS
    I hope that helps anyone with similar problems or who wants to make the most of their fast 802.11n equipment by making is use of that kit that was maybe considered redundant - by creating a dual frequency network that maximizes speeds on 802.11 n whilst allowing use of the legacy 802.11 b&g devices.

  • Ical and palm desktop - help

    I'm using palm desktop to syn with my palm treo.
    I would like to syn my palm desktop calendar with ical.
    Anybody knows how to do it?
    Thanks!

    You cannot simultaneously synchronize 'conflicting' data types with your Palm device. So, for example, your can…
    • synchronize contacts between your handheld the Palm Desktop, or
    • synchronize contacts between the Address Book and your handheld using iSync, or
    • synchronize contacts between the Address Book and your handheld using the Missing Sync for Palm OS and Mark/Space contacts
    …but, you cannot choose to perform 2 or more of these options. You must pick an environment—the Palm Desktop or the Address Book and iCal—and a program by which to do this—the Palm Desktop, iSync or the Missing Sync for Palm OS.
    The same is true for calendaring and task data. You must choose an environment and an appropriate program to execute and supervise your synchronization events.
    It is possible to cross environments by directing contacts to one, and calendaring and tasks to another, but this is a special application best avoided unless you have a very specific reason for choosing this option.
    So define precisely what it is you want to accomplish, and I will outline the configuration instructions you need to follow. It's also important to know which Treo model you intend to synchronize, as those prior to the Treo 650 present some challenges, and the Palm OS-based Treo 650 and later another set when iSync is the program chosen.
    Any 'advanced' Palm device which uses Palm OS 5.4 or later is better supported by the Missing Sync for Palm OS, and any Palm device which uses the Windows Mobile OS requires the use of third-party software like the Missing Sync for Windows Mobile.

  • Switching from external Email server to Exchange, Understanding Dis-Joint, and a little help please

    I'm pretty new at installing exchange myself and have never done Exchange 2013
    While going through the install help online I came across disjointed domains. I think I'm over thinking this but here is what I have and what I want to do. Any other tips would be great as well. 
    Customer currently has a domain, internal dns and email through GoDaddy. Lets call it smallschool.com 
    Internally they have a new Active Directory (2012) and the domain is in.smallschool.com. There is no external DNS except GoDaddy. I plan to use that (if that's ok). 
    I have built a Hyper-V for Exchange 2013 and have installed pre-requisites. 
    My Current Question are...
    Do I need to set up dis-joint dns suffix and modify the msds-allowdnssuffix attribute? I have the instructions, I just don't know if this is a must or not with the domain names like they are.
    Am I going to run into any trouble switching GoDaddy's email to Exchange Server? Any Tips?
    Thank You, 
    fixitrod

    Hi fixitrod,
    Agree with Ed Crowley. If your original used domain is smallschool.com in GoDaddy, I suppose your email address would be
    [email protected]
    If that is the case, when you deployed a new AD domain with in.smallschool.com, we can create an accepted domain for smallschool.com in Exchange 2013. If you want to still use Godaddy for external message sending and receiving, you can create an external
    relay domain. For more information about configuring external relay fomain, please refer to:
