Mac pro 1,1 to mac pro 2,4

helloi, I have just bought a used Mac Pro 2,4 (I think) to replace my Mac Pro 1,1. My question is what is the easiest way to migrate. Can I simply place the drive 1 disk from the old machine in one of the slots of the new machine and use restore or migration assist to move the data?
thanks, ron

The 2009 model Mac Pro 4,1 changed from a mainboard with processors DIMMson riser-cards to a stripped-down mainboard and processor and memeories on a separate slide-out shelf. In the process, the seld design also changed. So if you are moving to a MacPro 4,1 or later, you will have to dismount the drive and mount it on a new sled.
Other methods include FireWire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet File Sharing, and restoring just Users (or User plus Allications) from your Time Machine Backup drive.
The simplest method is Setup Assistant -- when the Mac first comes up at the end of Installer, tell it where the stuff to be migrated is right then.

How to install Mac OS 9 on my MacBook Pro?

I have recently bought a MacBook Pro. It came with the Mac OS X Tiger operating system. However, I need Classis environment for one of the programs that I wish to use so I went on and bought a new Mac OS 9 install CD, which I tried to install onto my machine by booting up from the CD-Rom. When I try and follow the instructions on the CD, i.e. "Hold down the C key as your computer starts up" it does not seem to do anything. The computer boots up in the Mac OS X as if I have no Mac OS 9 install disk inserted in my drive.
If anyone could give me any help as to how I would be able to install the Mac OS 9 on my MacBook Pro I would be more than happy.
Note: I have got my hard drive partitioned into two partitions.
I am looking forward to some suggestions/answers as to where my problem actually is.
Thx.

Hi, gmujkic. OS 9 and Classic are not supported by the Intel processor in your MacBook Pro. None of the Intel Macs, as shipped, runs Classic applications. Nowhere in any of the literature on the Intel Macs will you find any hint of Classic support. It would have been wiser to look into this before buying the MacBook Pro — you might have decided to buy a Powerbook G4 instead.
Third-party hacks/emulators allowing you to run OS 9 apps may be in the works, but Apple will not support them. Use them, if/when they appear, at your own risk, and subject to whatever limitations they may impose on your ability to run the Classic software you like.

My Mac App Store on my MacBook Pro does not work properly.

My Mac App Store on my MacBook Pro 15 inch does not work properly. When i go on to the app store, my wi-fi resets and then my app store quits. Why is this? How can i fix this problem? Please Help

Back up all your files, on boot up when you first press the power button, press CMd and r and keep pressing until you get something apart from a apple logo. Then click reinstall Mac OS X or something like that. You may be prompted to insert your disk.
Good luck

I have a 17" Mac Book Pro and a 13" Mac Book Pro...both use the same Apple ID. My wife now wants to change the Apple ID on the 13" to her Apple ID. How do I do this and not loose the information on that computer?

Hello Teddy53149 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
Follow this procedure:
Change your OS X account name and home directory name - Apple Support
As they recommend and as always when you're messing with administrator accounts back everything up first.

I want to install XP Pro SP2 on a Mac Mini from a 2003 RIS server.

I want to install XP Pro SP2 on a Mac Mini from a 2003 RIS server. Is this possiIble? How is it done?
The mac has 10.5 which has bootcamp to enable Windows install. I have created a partition but the bootcamp utility asks for a CD. I want to install a RIS build. The Mac has a option for network boot but this seems to only work with Mac Server. I assume the network adapter is not PXE compatible and so a boot disk of some kind will be needed to kick this off?.

Can the mac air print to HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 plus Wireless e-all-in-one?

AirPrint is an iOS 5 protocol. It is not used on the Mac or Lion. What you *can* do is add the wireless printer to you network and print from the mac using that.

Can I run a mxo2 mini and a BMD intensity pro on the same mac pro?

Hi to everyone,
I have a strange question to you: Can I run a Matrox MXO2 mini and a Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro on the same Mac Pro?
That's because I find more versatile using a MXO2 with editing software (I have an AVID MC 5.5.3 and I don't want to update it to 6 yet) and I'd like to begin to use DaVinci Resolve from Blackmagic Design which, of course, functions only with their cards. My goal is to output Resolve to my FullHD CRT instrumental monitor without spending the money to upgrade AVID for now, I'm fine with 5.5.3.
I won't use them togheter but alternatively as you can easily imagine.
thanks
best regards,
ginuz

Hossein,
As Guido said, you can use BootCamp to partition the drive. If you want to install, or reinstall Windows. You would launch BootCamp and it will actually guide you through the installation, you will only need to decide how large a partition you want. I would use BootCamp, I would not use disk utility. When you have installed Windows and you want to boot into windows, when you start your MBP hold down the option key, this will give you trha option of booting Mac OSX or Windows.

I updated to OS X Mavericks and now trying to run Logic Pro X on a MacBook Pro mid-2009, using an M-Audio Axiom 49 and an M-Audio Fast Track Pro... Logic keeps telling me that Mac OS X MIDI Services are not available... How do I solve this problem?

I updated to OS X Mavericks and now trying to run Logic Pro X on a MacBook Pro mid-2009, using an M-Audio Axiom 49 and an M-Audio Fast Track Pro... Logic keeps telling me that Mac OS X MIDI Services are not available... How do I solve this problem?

I just checked to see if the update to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 solved any of the issues outlined in my previous post, and to my dismay, nothing has changed -- all of the previous problems persist.
My iMac (8) -- it's renamed itself eight times since the recent troubleshoot with the Apple tech rep -- shows up as a shared device in Finder on my MacBook Pro, but when I click on it, I cannot establish a connection using "Connect As". So I've attempted to connect using the menu "Go/Connect to Server...", using both (alternately) the iMac's name and IP address, to no avail. I get a message which reads: "There was a problem connecting to the server 'Peter's iMac (8)'. This server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again."
Here's what I know:
The server -- Peter's iMac (8) does exist;
The server -- Peter's iMac (8) is available at this time;
The server name -- Peter's iMac (8) -- is correct, as specified in the system sharing preferences;
The server IP address is correct, as specified in the system sharing preferences;
The network connection is active when I attempt to connect.
I'm convinced the problems stem directly from the OS X Yosemite update. None of this was ever remotely an issue in the previous OS X's -- any of them. This is maddening! What can be done? Apple?? Anyone???

I kept a dual boot of windows 7 and mac os x lion in macbook pro. so, should i keep antivirus for windows 7? which is prescribable between bit defender(bd) and microsoft security essentials(mse)?does bd and mse un-installs easily?

lower your font size unless you have difficulty
MS Security Essentials is excellent
Then again maybe time to investigate Windows 8 RP (which uses Defender)

On your friend's computer with an internet connection, log into the Mac App Store with your ID and download Yosemite from the Purchases section of the Mac App Store. The make a bootable USB install media using
http://liondiskmaker.com/
Then boot from that on your computer and install
You need an internet connection to install via Recovery mode
