Is there a reliable way to move 10.5.8 files to mavericks (10.9.5)

Moving files from iMac 10.5.8 to iMac 10.9.5 via Migration assistant is worthless. Likewise using Time Machine backup on external disk. On the
Mavericks device MA complaints the older machine needs updating, however the older machine does recognize the new (ethernet connect).
Mavericks Time Machine keeps looking for a viable backup, won't read the one designated. Ptui on all of it. Looks like the only means availble
is to copy files to intermediate device, then to the new. Then figure out where the files go....

Hi, true, you cannot migrate from 10.5.8 to 10.9.5, you can only migrate from 10.5 to 10.6, then from 10.6 to a higher OSX.

  • HT1766 On an iPhone 5, Is there an easy way to move app icons as a group? instead of one by one?

    On an iPhone 5, Is there an easy way to move app icons as a group? instead of one by one?

    If you have a bunch of apps on one screen yunwantnto move to another as a group, create a folder by holding your finger on ne app until all the icons start shaking and show and "x" in the top left corner of the icon. Press again and don't lift your finger; move that icon with your finger over one of the other icons you want to add to the folder, which will create a folder. Then you can move the other apps you want to move into that folder. When you have all the apps you want to move into that folder, close the folder by tapping on the screen outside the folder. The icons should still be shaking. Then press on the folder you want to move and slide it to the edge of the screen, left or right, until the folder moves to the next screen. Once you get it to the screen of choice, you can leave the apps in that folder or move them out by the same process. When you are done moving things around, press the Home button and the icons will stop shaking. Now they will stay put.
    Alternatively,my can sync your device with iTunes and move the icons around in the Apps windows in iTunes, then re-sync your device after you're finished. That will rearrange your icons on the device.
    Good luck!

  • Is there an easy way to move contacts and calander from my office microsoft outlook to personal imac?

    is there an easy way to move contacts and calander from my office microsoft outlook to my personal imac?

    You can import the clips in the order you want them to play, which would be the quickest.
    Or you can put them all in the timeline, then zoom out on the timeline (two finger squeeze).
    That makes it easier to hold the clip, and drag it to the start.

  • There is no way to move text freely to the position you want. Am I missing something..or you just can't do it?

    there is no way to move text freely to the position you want. Am I missing something..or you just can't do it?

    I use FCP X with Lion and, after clicking the little icon with the four dots in the lower left corner of the viewer window, I can move my titles and text.  I noticed, however, that I cannot click and drag from just anywhere on the viewer screen, but I have to click in the smaller rectangle surrounding the text.  Just to make sure I don't miss it, I usually just click on a letter in the text and drag the text block to where I want it.  That's probably just a habit from programs I have used in the past that require that. I think you guys got it right ... just need to get close to the text for it to work.  Of course, it goes without saying you also need to select the text clip first.

  • A way to move layers from one file to another in actions?

    Ok, question for the gurus out there - rather than try to explain, I'll give you an example: Lets say I have a series of adjustment layers that I want to apply to a sequence of 40 images. The adjustments are in a layer group, and are saved as a separate file.
    I DON'T want to drag and drop them, I want to run an action that will copy the adjustments to each image- now I know I can save down each adjustment as a separate file, lets a curve (acv) a selective color (ahu) file and load THAT in as part of my action. But I don't want to do that either, because these adjustments will change and I want to easily re-render my changes on all 40 images in one step.
    I also don't want to use After Effects to do it, because my client doesn't own it. There used to be
    a way to move layers from one file to another in actions because I seem to remember doing it. The answer is not Duplicate Group either because that needs you to specify a destination file name.
    Is it possible to do this without scripting? I'm pretty sure it used to be because I seem to remember doing it, just cant remember HOW I did. Maybe I'm wrong about this though.
    Thanks and sorry for the long post, this has been baffling me for weeks.

    Thanks Ed, but as I explained above
    "I know I can save down each adjustment as a separate file, lets a curve (acv) a selective color (ahu) file and load THAT in as part of my action. But I don't want to do that either"
    What I want to know is is there a way to move adjustment layers from one file to another in an action. I know also that you can use the clipboard to move pixel layers, but I've yet to find a way to move adjustments.

    I'm using PC with Windows 8.1. I got onto the Creative Cloud and downloaded "Flash Professional CC and Mobile Device Packaging (2014)". <--- That would be the file. I can't open or run it from CC and I couldn't find a file in my computer either.
    I've also found direct downloads for the trial version and hit the set-up button, it loads up, and then nothing happens.

    Hi
    Bookmark management is important, especially when using multiple browsers. Unfortunately, each browsers approach is sorely lacking.
    Given you have numerous bookmarks, consider trying out a 3rd party Bookmark Manager. The best out there at the moment is Bookdog. I'm not sure if it permits color coding of folders, however, it seems to simplify locating and managing URL's. Sometime later this year, the vendor this replaces this product with one better suited to Leopard. It's called BookMacster.

  • Records created locally - is there a reliable way to report on this?

    We need to run a report and return Order records that were created locally only (not online).
    I wondered if there is a reliable way to check if records were created on the remote client vs. the online client?
    e.g. is there some field which is only set locally, or function that works differently locally to online?
    The only thing we came up with so far was, for a limited number of orders, the Order Number for local orders (which is based on: Expr: 'RowIdToRowIdNum ([Id])') appears to create differently formatted order numbers locally to online (but is that by design?) and will it be reliable?
    Or is there another method to see were the orders were created?

    You can read more on ROW_ID's on Supportweb: What is RowID/ROW_ID, and How is it Generated and Used? [ID 476256.1]
    It looks like the Corporate Prefix is different for local databases and it looks like it's by design.
    "The corporate prefix will always be unique for any database (main or local). The server maintains its original value, and mobile databases created against that particular server database are always assigned a new, unique value."

  • Is there an easier way to move pics taken on iPhone 3G to Album on iPhone?

    So, is there no quick way to put the Camera Roll pictures into an album on the iPhone 3g?
    Here is how I do it now:
    1) Click on an image in Camera Roll
    2) Send it to Mobile Me in an album I named Camera Roll
    3) Then download from Mobile Me to my PC
    4) Then put in the folders I am syncing via iTunes.
    5) Then sync iTunes.
    Not every intuitive at all.
    Am I missing something?
    Is there a way to move pictures from the "Camera Roll" on the iPhone itself?
    Thanks again.

    Yeah, it's all pretty stunted right now. It's been driving me bonkers. I'm looking for a good geotagging solution and all the 3rd party programs are crap and the possibility of MobileMe is just too hampered by limitations.

  • So there is no way to move a rented HD movie between computers?

    I just rented a HD movie on my 13" MacBook, but I really want to watch it on my 24" iMac. I can't just move the file, my iMac won't play it stating it has been locked to another computer. Some threads are saying that I can move it by syncing it to my iPhone, but the iPhone won't recieve the movie because it's in HD.
    So... Is there REALLY no way for me to watch this film on my iMac without paying the $4.99 again??? I wouldn't in my wildest dreams suspected that I couldn't move the file between my approved computers, otherwise I wouldn't have rented a HD movie onto a 13". (why the heck would I do that??)

    Is there REALLY no way for me to watch this film on my iMac without paying the $4.99 again?

    In all the years in using Dreamweaver. I have never used the embed code generated by by Dreamweaver. The coding not complete and I feel better writing my own. Untill a few years ago I found this neat little program that write a fairly complete code.
    PAGEot...and it free. It not only writes the emebed code but it can write the javascript code for IE7 (for Windows). Plus it does a lot of other neat things that you do with Quicktime...play lists, poster frames to name a few.

    You can either use the html page it makes or just copy and paste the embed code into you own html...
    The coding it makes is compliant with most major browsers. either PC or Mac.

  • Is there a general way to find any type of file IN a JAR ?

    Hi I've written an application that I want to distribute in an executable JAR format. The application runs find when I double click the Jar but ONLY when the config file is outside the Jar, however I want to distribute every thing in the Jar, because I want my program to be self contained.
    I've read a lot of threads, read the Sun tutorial for JARs, but I haven't found a general way to find files within the Jar. Pehaps I should set the Class-Path in the manifest, but from what I've read in Sun Tutorial that seems that it only works for Classes.
    So my question is:
    Is there a general way to find any kind file ( *.txt, *.dat, *.for ) that is not a *.class, within the Jar ? Is that done on the manifest or when creating the Jar ?
    The code for the app that actually works is:
                URL url = getClass().getResource( fileName );
                inputFile = new File( fileName );
                fr = new FileReader( inputFile );
                char[] dat = new char[ (int) inputFile.length() ];
                fr.read( dat );
                sDat = new String( dat );
                fr.close();
                // Parse config.txt
                System.out.print("Reading metaconfig parameters...\n");
                parseFile() ;where filename is "./config.txt".
    I intend later to use a *.dat file wich will contain an object with the necessary data to configur the rest of the program instead of a *.txt file
    Hope you can help me
    Thank you !

  • Is there an easy way to convert and import MTS files from a external hardrive so that I can edit them in FCP?

    I am trying to convert game footage that is in MTS format to something that I can edit into a quick highlights video. I have final cut express and the standard IMovie '09. looking for easiest solution, everything seems to involve using one application to convert to Quicktime and then dropping file into Iphoto etc. is there an easy way?

    I'm not completely sure that MPEG Streamclip can convert AVCHD footage (.mts files).  If MPEG Streamclip doesn't do the job, then get a copy of Clipwrap, which was designed for transcoding .mts files to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec (that's the format/codec you need to convert the .mts files to for use in FCE).
