  • Import old lso files

    Is it possible to import old LSO files created in Logic Platinum 5 software (Windows) into Logic Pro on Mac?
    I need to be sure before buying that new software
    Thanks for help

    Not possible with the current Logic 9 version, you would need Logic 7 or below to do so!
    Good luck!

  • How can I Import old lbi files to DW8 - solved

    A fast search here found me nothing so if someone knows of a
    post feel free to point me there.
    A year or so ago my DW4 started crashing to desktop everytime
    I opened it, I haven't done much webwork the last few years so it
    wasn't that important but now I just purchased DW8 and if I can't
    get the old library files to work with the new version I am in for
    a world of editing I don't want to deal with to re-create them all
    and update every page that has one (groan).
    I bet if DW didn't crash to desktop I could have exported the
    old one and imported to DW8? But I can't so don't tell me to do
    that :). I MAYYYYYY be able to do it on an old laptop that I think
    it still worked on so that is a last resort, but how can there not
    be some way for the modern DW to scan for old site files that
    existed? I don't get it.

    DW8 and DW4 were identical in the way that they create
    Library items.
    > There used to be a library window that let you click

    There still is. It's in the Assets tab of the Files Panel.

  • Unable to import old AB files- SL

    Hello,
    Just upgraded to SL from Tiger. Did a full backup (not with Time Machine as it wasn't included with Tiger) onto an external drive. ( I used SuperDuper if that helps any)
    I can see all my old AB files on the backup drive (looked in my home Library/app supp/addbk and also found the Metadata folder in /Caches)
    When I tried to import my old data into SL, all my old AB files are greyed out and I can't select them or any folder associated with them in order to import them into Snow Leopard.
    Things I've tried: I took the entire Address Book folder from my backup and used it to replace my Snow Leopard folder of the same name and location. No good. No errors either, just ignores the data.
    Help?

    Woot!
    Seems that the drive has a quirk in that it needs to be triggered during startup to boot.
    I had used the "option key" to select the drive which didn't work. When I went into "System Preferences" and "Startup Disk", selecting the backup and rebooting it worked!
    Sigh. It's illogical quirks like this that drove me to Mac's in the first place -Windoze is rife with them!
    Oh well, this is the first real quirk I've run into, guess I shouldn't complain.
    Thanks for all the help!

  • Won't import old image files

    Help,
    I have a series of directories with 20 year old image files. Mac Info says they are tiffs. Photoshop can open them, preview can open them. Lightroom doesn't even recognize them, I don't even get typical lightroom errors. And these were copied over from CD roms where they were backed up in the era before harddrives were big. And interestingly, some files are recognized and added. Anyone sen anything like this?

    >If the files don't have a .TIF filename extension then add an extension to one of the files  and then see if it will import.
    Bob is right. That is probably the issue. Lightroom doesn't recognize the old filetype/creator metadata codes that Macs used to use 20 years ago so won't recognize that they are image files if there is no extension. You might not realize there is no extension as Mac OS X stupidly hides those by default. You should always turn that option off in the Finder presences->advanced.

  • When downloading iTunes onto a new computer, is there any way to automatically import old music files? Last time I got a new computer I didn't have to use an external drive to update my music library.

    When downloading iTunes onto a new computer, is there any way to automatically important songs from your previous computer? I recently cracked the screen on my computer and cannot access any files. Last time I got a new computer my iTunes media files automatically appeared in my iTunes when I downloaded it, and I did not have to use my external drive. Is this still possible?

    If your backup copy of the old computer was not stolen, then use it to put everything back.

  • IWeb on macbook pro with mavericks cannot import old iWeb files from time machine back up

    Hi! The apple store completely wiped my macbook and installed mavericks. I made a time machine back up before bringing it in to be completely wiped. Computer had bad software so they recommended me to handpick items and bring them over to new operating system without completly putting the entire time machine back up on it.
    So I did but my only concern is Iweb. Now I got Iweb back installed in mavericks I cannot seem to import any files from my back up to my application in my renewed computer with mavericks. I searched for .domains, sites and sites2 but I cannot extract anything and I still have some old websites stored with Iweb and use the application quite a bit...
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks a million....

    Not sure what you mean by extract but this might help;
    If you're running Lion or later the Home/Library folder is invisible and that's where the domian files are located.  That folder will be invisible in the TM backups also.  Therefore  you can extract Domain files one at a time out of the TM backups for import into iPhoto.  You would do it as follows:
    1 - download and run Find Any File to search for a file named ".site".
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages.
    2 - the search can take a while due to the structure of the TM backups.
    3 - select the backup from which you want to recover the Domain file.
    4 - drag the file from the search results window to the Desktop.
    If you recover more than one Domain file be sure to rename them after dragging to the Desktop so that you don't overwrite one with the next.
    5 - you can put the Domain file(s) in your Home/LIbrary/Application Support/iWeb folder but will have to make the library visible as follows:
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Optionsmenu to bring the this window:
    To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Import - Old Powerpoint File Fomats

    I have Powerpoint presentations dating back to Office 4.2 in the late 80's. Assuming that, like most software manufactureres, Microsoft would allow importing of old file formats ..thus allowing a "save as" in the current format".... I discarded Office 98 and 4.2. Does anyone know if Keynote will import these old Powerpoint formats?
    As you might expect, numerous email exchanges with Microsoft Technical support have only yeiled a "you can't get there from here" response...no real help.
    If I can impoprt these old presenations I will gladly convert to Keynote without ever looking back

    LSDMD,
    welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Check if you've got a 30-days-trial version of
    Keynote. If not, maybe you could download it here.
    At least I was able to open an old PPT from March
    1998 without problems in Keynote -- except that some
    exotic fonts were missing.
    If this information
    is useful to you, please mark it as "helpful" or
    "solved" using the little buttons in the titlebar of
    this message. Thank you.
    PowerBook G4 17", 1GB   Mac OS X
    (10.4.7)   iMac G5 20"; iPod 3G, iPod Shuffle,
    iSight
    Unfortunately that link and the resulting download wasn't a free-trial ...so I coundn't test it. I would be thrilled to buy Keynote if I could simply establish for myself (by testing it with those old Powerpoints) that it would indeed open them. Do you have any other ideas where I might find a download of a trial version.
    Thanks so much

  • Can I import old MacProject files into something more modern?

    I have some MacProject files which were created on an older Mac under OS7. Under older OSX I could still open those files in the Classic environment. That option has obviously now gone having upgraded Mac and OS to 10.4.8
    I have copies of the older Mac's hard drives safely stored and now want to import or open the MacProject files and save them in an upto date format for my MacBook Pro.
    Any suggestions how I might do this?

    ps_pause,
    Welcome to the discussions.
    It will all depend on the 'save as' options available in the older software. The data will be stored similar to a relational database. Just saving a file as text will not include all the linked information. Take a look at the save and export options.

  • How can I import old email files from Simeon into Apple Mail?

    I used to use Esys Simeon for PC for mail at work.  I recently found my Simeon email files, which I thought I'd lost.  If possible, I'd love to import them to Mail, to have as part of my general email archive.
    The files come as a set of nested folders.  The lowest level of folders each contain a set of separate numbered files each of which contains one email in plain text (complete with all headers).  The folders also contain a number of other '.dat' files with info about the folder contents.
    I'm on Mail 4.5
    Any ideas?

    No. But…
    one email in plain text (complete with all headers).
    How do you know it's plain text? File name extension ".txt"?
    Message Handler?) type file system to mbox
    Not likely. MH would be text, .dat suggests binary. "Mh" in "mh_cache.dat" may stand for "message handler", but it's not MH.
    Try Emailchemy (test it, don't buy it until you know it works). You might have to change file name extensions from .txt to .eml. Or try to find some documentation of Simeon's file formats and directory structure. I doubt it will be easy to find a converter. Given your description, I'd probably use AppleScript.

  • How do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto?  Photoes came across, video said incompatible.

    how do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto?  Photoes came across, video said incompatible.
    i have moved from a mac pro to a mac mini,
    Mini now has mavericks and latest iLife stuff, I clicked import, was all good, then at end, no videos came across.
    Is Mavericks,/iPhoto having a compatibiltiy issue with some video formats....???
    Your help is appreciated gang.: )

    Please describe exactly what you did. In moving to a new machine no importing is involved. The best way is to simply connect the two computers together and drag the iPhoto library from the old one to the pictures folder go the new one and launch iPhoto

  • How to import old iPhone SMS.CSV file into new iPhone?

    Hey everyone,
    So I've spent a couple days on this as I just upgraded to the iPhone5S from my 4S.  Long story short, my backup restore didn't work after multiple tries (gave me the file is corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone error). 
    I tried:
    -reinstalling itunes
    -updating itunes
    -combining the 5S backup with the old 4S backup
    -tinyumbrella
    and a few of other things as I've forgot now.
    The most important things I needed was the contact list and SMS history.  I've got the contact list from extracting is successfully from the iTunes backup folder and using iCloud, but cannot figure out how to import the SMS.CSV file into my iPhone5S.
    Any suggestions on how I can get my SMS messages from my iPhone4s into my 5S?
    If anyone has any other suggestions on getting my Backup Restore to work that would be awesome too!
    Thanks!

    A word on SMS text messages. It is pracitcally impossible to import an SMS text-messages file to a new iPhone and have the Messages app on the new device read the messages.
    You can transfer, however contacts and other individual data (such as calendars and notes) from one iphone to the next. I had my old Nokia which whose contacts I exported to a CSV file. I then imported the file to my iphone which converted the file into multiple contacts in the Contacts app on the iphone. You can use a contact management app such as this one in order to import the contact file to the new iPhone.

  • I imported files from an external hard drive to Itunes on a new computer.  they imported & play fine, but the ratings & playlists are gone & i am unable to update any info.  I found a file name playlist on old drive & imported now most files are missing!

    I imported files from an external hard drive to Itunes on a new computer.  they imported & play fine, but the ratings & playlists are gone & i am unable to update any info.  I found a file name playlist on old drive & imported now most files are missing!  Help!

    Can you locate the iTunes Library.itl file on the old drive? Ideally you would have simply copied over the entire iTunes folder structure from <User's Music> on the old computer into <User's Music> on the new one to transfer the library will all playlists, ratings, play counts etc. intact.

  • How do I import playlists from an old library file?

    How do I import playlists from an old library file?
    I have a new computer and it has the music files completely reorganized from my last computer so I can't just drop in my old library files and have it work. Basically, I'm hoping there is some way to recover my old playlists from my old backed up copy of my music library without recreating my old jumbled file paths and just using my old library.

    Backup the current passwords with the Password Exporter extension.
    Then you can re-import them afterward.
    For restoring the names and passwords from Firefox 3.5.x and later you need the file signons.sqlite from the old profile.
    You also need the corresponding file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/key3.db key3.db] that stores the encryption key in addition to the signons file.
    Password Exporter: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2848
    See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Password_Manager#Backing_up_and_restoring_passwords
    For the bookmarks to need to do something similar unless you have a HTML backup of the old bookmarks because restoring a JSON backup replaces all current bookmarks.
    If you need to preserve current bookmarks then you can export your bookmarks in Firefox to an HTML file and import that file afterward.
    Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Export HTML & Import HTML > From File
    Another possibility is to use the clipboard to store selected bookmarks before restoring a JSON backup (e.g. All Bookmarks: Ctrl + A and Ctrl + C).
    You can paste the bookmarks from the clipboard back after you have restored a JSON backup.
    That will preserve all data including tags and annotations, but you should create an HTML backup to be safe.

  • I have been trying to import old family dads into iMovie. I receive the following message "None of the selected files or folders can be imported"

    I have been trying to import old family dvd's into iMovie. I receive the following message "None of the selected files or folders can be imported" Is there a problem with the format not being recognized by Imovie? Same home dvd's work on internal dvd player. Any Ideas?

    You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    which is free, but you must also have the  Apple mpeg2 plugin :
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
    (unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
    which is a mere $20.
    Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
    http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
    which costs $25.
    For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
    Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
    And from the TOU of these forums:
    Keep within the Law

    Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
    If you are running Lion or later:
    From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
    The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion onwards, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it. See this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3381
    To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
    The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. (The same applies to Mountain Lion even though that has it preinstalled.) You don't have to install QuickTime 7.
