Leopard didn't migrate all mailboxes from Tiger

My new Leopard mailboxes (2) look good, but it didn't migrate my old MSN HTTP mail account or 2 saved email mailboxes where all pending messages are stored. Also no junk mail is being received. You may think that's good, but many messages are initially routed to junk because the sender is not in my address book and I can then decide if they are truly junk.
Have any of you experienced similar problems? Where can I find my missing email??

Use Import Mailbox. It works fine, just browse to the old mailbox folders when prompted. Also see ...

Can't import my mailboxes from Tiger Mail into Leopard

Hi everyone,
I bought a new MBP and I'm now in the process of carefully importing my mailboxes from Tiger mail, on my Tiger backup HD, to the new mail program. I have about 20000 messages saved since 1999, sorted by project etc. Each time I select a batch of mailboxes to import, I get a failure message when it's almost done, saying that some messages couldn't be imported. This is very frustrating: my e-mail archive is possible the most important collection of files on the computer. I would hate for it to become messed up/corrupted.
Thanks for any suggestions!
Alex

Try copying the directory ~/Library/Mail/ (the library folder in your home directory) from your old computer to the same location on your Leopard install. I believe the versions of Mail in Tiger and Leopard use the same directory structure, so this should work.

Migrating Address Book from Tiger to Leopard

I migrated all data from old machine (G4 Powerbook) to new machine (MacBookPro), but my address book is now messed up. Contacts are not organized in the same groups as in old machine, and some contacts have multiple addresses that are not correct.
Can I copy files over manually from my old machine to the new one? I know the Address Book info is in the Application Support file, but is there a preference I need to copy as well?
Thanks!

copy the directory /homedirectory/library/application support/address book and the file home directory/ library/preferences/com.apple.addressbook.plist from the old computer to the corresponding locations on the new one. Make sure that neither Mail nor address book are running when you do this. start Address book and see if it transfered correctly.

I migrated all data from old PC to new and iTunes successfully transferred to new PC. When I click on a song it says it cannot locate the original. How does one map iTunes file to iMusic to enable play from original files ?

How do I copy Mailboxes from Tiger to new Lion. Library/Mail structure different

My old machine running Tiger 10.4 and Mail 2.1.3 has Library/Mail/Mailboxes with "other stuff" such as Envelope Index, Message rules.plist, etc, also in Mail. The usual advice is to copy the whole of Mail and Preferences to the "same place" on the new machine. But if running Lion/Mail 5.1. the "place" is not the "same".
The new structure is Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes with the "other stuff" in a folder MailData which is also in V2. So does one have to copy old Mailboxes only into new Mailboxes and then the old "other stuff" into new MailData, which itself has different "other stuff" from the old. In other words does the usual straightforward procedure not apply with Lion/Mail5.1 ?

You are correct Setup and Migration are an all or nothing affair, if you choose applications for example it will migrate ALL the apps from your old computer to the new one. The one thing it's smart about is if it "sees" a newer version of an App (let's say iPhoto for example) it will not migrate an older version of iPhoto to the new system.
If the old system has a Firewire connection you can connect the two computer with a cable like this one from Amazon. Then you can start in Target Mode and manually move files and other data. You can find out how to start in Target Mode from http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661

Migrating nested mailboxes from POP to IMAP

How can I migrate a user from POP to IMAP, with their nested mailbox structure and email. I have dragged and dropped the nested mailboxes from the POP account to the IMAP account. All the nested mailboxes transfered as planned, but only the email in the most deeply nested folders transfered.
Is there a smooth way to migrate the nested mailbox structure AND all of the email inside of the nested mailboxes?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

I have the same problem. I copied my subfolders from my POP account into my .Mac account and they show up, but they don't update with new mail. I guess I need to migrate my POP account to an IMAP account but I don't want to lose my 100+ rules and 15 mailboxes.

Migrating all configuration from Crystal Reports Server XI R2 to Crystal Server 2013

Hi,
We're running an old Crystal Reports Server XI R2 SP version (boe 11.5) and we're planning to start using Crystal Server 2013
As far as I know no upgrade is possible and that's not needed either.
Instead I'm interested in the migrate possibilities. I saw this thread but it doesn't answer all the questions https://scn.sap.com/thread/3462417
So first I will install Crystal Server 2013 on a new server and then I use some migrate tool.
Questions:
- does the migrate tool support migrating from my version CR server XI R2 SP1 to Crystal Server 2013 ?
- does the migrate tool copy all report schduling information (recurring schedule, destination etc)? We have ~1000 scheduled reports so doing manually is not an option
- does the migrate tool copy Business views/Business view connections ?
(- odbc data sources are probably not copied but that's ok)
-Mikael

Hi Mikael,
Since you're already on CR Server XI R2, you can use the Upgrade Management Tool to migrate all the content to CR Server 2013.
Anwers to your questions:
1) Yes, the Upgrade Management Tool does support this kind of migration
2) It does seem that the UMT allows you to move all report instances as well as the scheduled jobs over to the new server
3) I've always had issues with Business Views when using Import Wizard however I'm not sure whether they work well with the new UMT. In any case, I always prefer to export the LOVs and BVs from within the Business View Manager to a .xml file and then import them in the higher version of the Server, again, from within the Business View Manager.

Fixing Leopard FTP: Mixed up with PureFTPd from Tiger

Okay, so basically what happened is that I was using (and enjoying) PureFTPd in Tiger, but the manager doesn't work in Leopard. I'm sure it'll be updated eventually, but I figure I'll just use the default one and force it to route through SSH for added security. Unfortunately, I can't get it working. I figured out the files PureFTP added by looking at the package (and removed them), AND I learned about /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ftp.plist... but I don't know what's supposed to go here. It still has all the PureFTPd entries, after all. Can anyone using the default FTP in Leopard post the contents of their ftp.plist file so I can get mine going?

Okay, I think I figured things out. First off, you need to delete the PureFTPD startup item, or it will keep respawning its FTP information. This can be done by deleting /Library/StartupItems/PureFTPD.
Next, you need to replace the contents of the ftp.plist file in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons with the following (extracted from my Dad's Macbook). It may be a good idea to just use the Plist editor and switch the application and parameters manually, if you have it installed with XCode, but otherwise it should work so long as you don't miss anything and it's valid XML. You won't normally have write access here, so you either need to edit it externally and copy it in, or use sudo nano, sudo vi, or whatever. Note that you should also make sure the ownership is still root and group wheel after you are done, as it could end up with you as owner instead (if you copied it from elsewhere). To switch it back, just do:
sudo chown root ftp.plist
sudo chgrp wheel ftp.plist

How migrate all settings from CC to CC2014

In InDesign sync works, in Illustrator and Photoshop sync don't works.

"CC 2014 is a new version of Photoshop, and when you first launch it, you are offered the opportunity to migrate your old settings if you wish."
That pretty much says it's automated. Were talking about Adobe settings & presets (this includes personal presets made with your software).
And syncing settings is not the same thing as migrating them from one version to another.
Where was this explained to your customers? (Without them having to search for it)
This isn't just an issue with PS it's pretty much all your CC Apps. Check your message boards.
https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/how-to/creative-cloud-sync-settings.html
Nothing happened when I first opened PS or Illustrator. I was not given the option to sync. Are you trying to tell me that my presets & settings (including Workspaces) from
the previous version will not work with this new version? Nonsense. So why didn't they sync?

Migration to lion from tiger

I am attempting to migrate from a tiger OS 10.4 Macbook to a Lion Macbook Pro. Everytime that migration is initiated my Pro states that I need to run an update on my Tiger Macbook. Once I attempt to update there is no update available. How do I make THIS **** WORK??!

Assuming both have Firewire & you have the proper FW cable, then you only need Migration Assistant on the newer one, put the old one in Target mode...

Trouble Migrating Eudora mailboxes from Windows PC to Mac

I am having trouble transferring my Eudora mail boxes from my old Windows 2000 PC to my new iMac. I successfully installed Eudora for Mac but ran into a snag.
According to Eudora, Windows .mbx mailbox files can easily be migrated from Windows to Mac:
http://www.eudora.com/techsupport/kb/1644hq.html
However they must be converted with their CRLF utility in order to work under Mac. They provide a link to this utility on the aforementioned page.
I downloaded their CRLF v1.2 utility and installed it on my Mac, except either it's not working, or I don't know how to use it, and the readme instructions that came with it are confusing and unclear. Executing CRLF v1.2 generates a "...not supported in this system" error.
(taken from the Eudora support page)
"Moving the Mailboxes:
Both versions of Eudora keep their mailboxes in the same format, so conversion is relatively painless. However, Macintosh and Windows file systems handle text differently, so line feed conversion must be done. You can do this by FTPing the files in ASCII (text) mode, or by using a carriage return/line feed conversion utility like CRLF. It's very important that you FTP or convert the files to take care of the carriage return/line feed processing.
The mailbox files on the PC are the ones in the Eudora directory that end in ".MBX". (Don't bring over the ".TOC" files). "
I tried removing the .mbx extension, but Mac only recognizes it as "Document." Eudora doesn't recognize it as an "Eudora mailbox file." I see the Eudora mailbox files Eudora generated have no file extension.
I signed up for Eudora support forum so I could ask there, but they never sent me a confirmation email with activation link, so I can't post anything there. There's no way to contact the webmaster about this problem, email bounces back with "we no longer offer support."

these reads will be helpful: one and two.

Can I migrate ALL data from my PB to my Fiancee's iMac as a separate user

Hello,
I need to move all of my data from my 12" G4 PB (iTunes, iPhone, movies) onto my fiancee's iMac as a different user. Currently the only user profile on her iMac is her (family uses it).
I'm a Mac guy but am forced to trade the PB for Windows laptop to continue my training with MS SQL Server 2005, but I do not want to lose everything I have accumulated over the past couple of years, plus I just upgraded to a 16gb 3G iPhone.
Thanks for the help!

Create a new account for yourself. Probably the easiest way to transfer is to start up the PB in Target Disk Mode (if that is supported on that model) and use it as a source drive for copying your files to your new account while logged into the iMac. You might want to review application compatibility for opening your data files. You also don't say what model iMac but if it is a new one running Leopard you will lose Classic compatibility.
[How to use FireWire target disk mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583] includes description of hardware and software requirements.

Importing mailboxes from Tiger (Mail v. 2.1.3) to Panther (Mail v. 1.3.11)?

Is it possible to import mailboxes into Mail v. 1.3.11 running under Panther (10.3.9) that were originally created and stored in Mail v. 2.1.3 under Tiger (OSX 10.4)?
I have a dual boot Mac with Tiger and Panther running on separate drives; after moving over to Tiger I'm finding some incompatibilities with older software and want to move back to Panther permanently on this machine, hence I need to get all my latest mail folders back into the older version of Mail.
I've been sucessful in importing them, but they appeear as empty, and won't refresh even if I rebuild them.
Is there a way to do this?

Hi Jona,
Not sure if this is your situation but is it possible that it is a problem with Tiger's emlx format and Panther's mbox format? I'm confused though because you say that you were able to import them but they are just "empty" files.
See if emlx to mbox Converter - 1.0.3 can help. I have not used Tiger (I use Panther 10.3.9) so I am not sure that is your problem but worth looking at.
Just be careful to not delete anything before testing to make sure they have imported correctly!
If not a problem with format then perhaps with indexing.
good luck,
LS
