Lost pro key when migrating

Hi - when using Migration Assistant to transfer my files and programs between my eMac and my new iMac G5, I lost the license code I paid for some time back, along with all my license codes for downloaded programs. I really hope not to have to buy a new one! It's my intention to keep only one of these computers for myself. Is there any way I can get the license code to be recognized on the iMac? I have had to re-purchase my license code at least twice already in my ownership of macs (this is my fourth), and I'd rather not have to buy it again. I've only ever had one machine in my home at a time.
So - can I get the code back, or do I have to buy it again?

Did you not keep the email Apple sent you with the code when you purchased it/them? If you still have the email, just re-enter the key information.
If not, but you purchased the key directly from Apple, log into your account in the Apple Store and click on the Downloadable Software Purchases link. You should find the key shown there.

Lost about 60-75% of my primary and foreign keys when Migrating from SQL Server 7

Hi All,
I did an almost successful migration between SQL Server 7.0 and Oracle9i.
What happened:
I seem to have lost my primary and foreign keys in the migration. The funny thing is when I viewed the constraints and indexes in Toad, they were there. However when I tried to enabled those constraints nothing happened.
I really don't know how I can fixed this, but I don't understand why I didn't get a warning or an error message in the Migration Workbench (latest version).
I did ignore the following errors, could that have anything to do with the keys being lost.
Failed to create User:omwb_emulation; ORA-1920: user name "OMWB_EMULATION" conflicts with another user or role name
Failed to create User:guest;ORA-01920: user name "GUEST" conflicts with another user or role name
These users do not own any objects therefore I ignored them.
Please advise
Thanks

Hi Joe,
Not sure why you are able to see these objects and yet not able to enable them. Did you encounter any errors during the create Oracle Model phase?? Did you encounter any errors during the final Migrate phase?
Also, it is really important to have a tablespace created before an attempt is made to create tables and indexes in the destination Oracle database.

Lost subscribed calendars when migrating to iCloud

My husband and I each have Mobile Me subscriptions. I subscribe to two of his calendars. I have migrated to iCloud (he has not yet) and I have lost his subscriptions. I have resent the inviations to subscribe but this doesn't work. Any suggestions? Thanks

Two issues here: your crontab file, and cron under Tiger.
Installing a new major-version of OS X updates all your system config files to those for the latest versions, which unfortunately means local modifications often get lost. You should be able to re-add tasks to those files (either by hand-editing them or using the 'crontab' command). However, first you have to consider:
On Tiger, cron is still present and usable, but Apple is moving towards using "launchd" and "periodic" services to accomplish what it used to do with cron. Here is an into from Apple: http://developer.apple.com/macosx/launchd.html Can you accomplish what you used to do with cron using the New Way? Or if you switch control of some tasks back to cron, disable those tasks in launchd.
Edit: Here's a useful discussion from MacOSXHints about these issues: http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?t=44671

Lost my key when syncing on an older windows install..

How do you retrieve your key so I can get my old bookmarks and passwords that were saved prior to re installing windows?
I have my username and password but it keeps telling me wrong key.

I see no direct connection.. a printer and the computer setup for internet are not related.
But it sounds like the router in the wife's office is now in the wrong mode..
If you have an existing main router replace the second router for a switch .. that is the easy way.
Otherwise you need to bridge the router if it has that option.. most do not. Or use wan bypass.. where you turn off the dhcp server in the router and fix its ip to match the range of the main router.. this is the hassle of using router as a switch.
BUT I am making a huge number of assumptions.
What I need is the full network layout.. a quick picture would help.
I need main modem.. main router.. (maybe same box or different).. make model and current IP address and how dhcp is setup.
I need secondary router.. if that is what it is, IP and settings.
I want the printer type and model. How it is connected.
BTW I much prefer to see a network printer plugged into the network rather than usb.. it is only a matter of sorting the IP settings and driver pointing to the network rather than local.
Or you should think of it as a broken washing machine and call the technician.. who could fix the whole lot in an hour.

You'll need to erase the drive by booting up holding command-option-r keys into your Recovery Volume.
Use Disk Utility to erase the disk and then Internet Recovery. That will take a while.

Hi LamboMong,
just try this:
http://refit.sourceforge.net
install, reboot twice and choose the Windows-Partition on next startup.
(The apple-bootloader doesn't display all bootable harddisks.
With rEFIt you can boot from all partitions/harddisks on your computer.)
I hope that will solve your problem.

When migrating from a pc to macbook pro migration assistant caused multiple user accounts how do I get the data all in to one account now that it is migrated ?

I am switching over to apple from a PC platform and I have tried to use migration assistant to transfer the stuff on my PC to my macbook pro. When i tried the first time the two went to sleep due the long time required to transfer 13 GB of data and the transfer failed. I tried to transfer again only opting for some of the data but when I did it created a second user account . I tried again and now I have transferred most of the data but I have it in three user accounts. Not what I wanted to do. Is there an easy fix for this or do Ineed to start from scratch ?

Open the Users folder on the internal drive, drag all of the other home folders to the desktop, and then move the files inside to the desired locations.

Hi,
Troubleshooting a start up script can be difficult. There are some third party programs that also keep logs of start up programs, however for Firefox this may be different.
Is Firefox a startup program? [http://www.winxptutor.com/msinfo32.htm]
Its also possible to check the Web developer tools for any scripts in a page: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Debugger]
In the control panel there is also Administrative tools to view event logs, but this may be something a local technician can walk you through.

QT Pro key - Migrating from PB to MBP

Hello there, I just got a MacBook Pro and transfered (just about everything transferable) from my old PB using the Migration Assistant. I can see that my QT Pro key was transfered over with the migration process that was part of the original configuration in the MBP. The question is: If I decided to format the MBP's HD and reinstall the OSX, could I just reenter the Pro Key that I purchased with my PB and will it work? If not, then how else can I do it (obviously not meaning that I have to buy a new key)?
I suppose that this must be possible since the migration utilily actually migrates the Pro key itself.
Thanks in advance.
George...

Yes, you would be able to open the QT Preferences, choose the Registration pane, and the enter your registration name and the Pro Key you received from Apple. It is best to do it by using copy and paste from the email confirmation to assure you get the exact key strokes needed.

thank you Malcolm J. Rayfield for your replay. but this didn't help, because i bought the "pro" bevore that.

I just purchased Quicktime pro key but when I go to system preferences to enter it Quicktime icon is not there

I just bought Quicktime Pro key but when I go into system preferences, quicktime icon is not there

Thanks for the answer, but that doesn't answer the question why the icon whether it's QT Player or QT Pro is not appearing in system Pereferences. I have a MacBook running OS X 10.7.4 and there isn't an a QT icon in system preferences.
By the way, what is QuickTime X Pro? I recently purchased QT 7 Pro.
Thanks

Logic Pro X loops not changing key when imported

Hi everyone,
I am a newbie and I have found a problem when importing Audio files (Loops) from the Loop section into a song I am working on in the project area. When I do this instead of the imported loop changing its key to fit in with the Key signature of the song I am writing it stays in its own key. For example the song I am writing is in C Major and the imported Loop is in A sharp. I have been told that when you import this loop by dragging and dropping into the project area that it should automatically change to the key of the project which of course is C Major but this is not happening and I do not know why?
When I then try to add other instruments in the key of C Major for example a bassline I discover that playing a bass line in C Major is completely out of the tune with the imported loop which is in A sharp. When I play notes from the A sharp scale over this imported loop it is perfectly in tune so its clear that for some reason the loop is not changing its key when its imported.
Any solutions for this would be greatfully received.

Recently got a MacBook Pro. When I use it for work purposes, I plug in a large screen and key board. When in this mode I would like to shut off the laptop screen or even close the lid. Is that possible?

RECENTLY GOT A mACKbOOK PRO. WHEN USING IT FOR WORK PURPOSES I PLUG IN A LARGE SCREEN AND KEYBOARD, THAT WORKS FINE. HOWEVER WOULD LIKE TO CLOSE LID ON THE LAPTOP, OR AT LEAST SHUT DOWN THE LAPTOP SCREEN WHILE USING THE LARGE SCREEN. IS THAT POSSIBLE?

Hi Jim,
Craig is right on with his post. Hope he won't mind if I add the following link, as recently it has been noted by some posts here that there are some "quirks" with Clamshell Mode:
