MacBook doesn't have FrieWire port? How to move all the stuff from Mac to MacBook?

Hi,
Just bought my new MacBook (13-inch, mid 2010). Would like to move all the files, programes and etc from my old mac (11-inch, 2006, Tiger) to the MacBook. What's the easiest way of doing?
It seems the MacBook doesn't have a FireWire port.
Thank you!
Andrea

  • How to move all the tables from one tablespace to other for a whole schema

    Hi,
    Is there any way to move all the tables in a schema from one tablespace to other?
    If so please help me out to do that.
    Thanks

    hi,
    here is the steps to move SCOTT's objects from their current tablespace to a NEW_TABLESPACE
    would be:
    1) do an export of all of scott's objects. Make sure no one modifies them after you
    begin this process. You will lose these changes if they do.
    $ exp userid=scott/tiger owner=scott
    2) you would drop all of scotts tables. This will get the indexes as well. I don't
    suggest dropping the user SCOTT but rather dropping scott's objects. Dropping scott
    would cause any system priveleges SCOTT has to disappear and the import would not restore
    them. This script can be used to drop someones tables:
    set heading off
    set feedback off
    set verify off
    set echo off
    spool tmp.sql
    select 'drop table &1..' || table_name || ' cascade constraints;'
    from dba_tables
    where owner = upper('&1')
    spool off
    @tmp.sql
    3) You would modify the user to not have unlimited tablespace (else the IMP will just
    put the objects right back into the tablespace they came from) and then give them
    unlimited quota's on the new tablespace you want the objects to go into and on their
    temporary tablespace (for the sorts the index creates will do)
    alter user SCOTT default tablespace NEW_TABLESPACE
    revoke unlimited tablespace from SCOTT
    alter user SCOTT quota unlimited on NEW_TABLESPACE
    alter user SCOTT quota unlimited on SCOTTS_TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE
    4) you will IMP the data back in for that user. IMP will rewrite the create statements
    to use the users default tablespace when it discovers that it cannot create the objects
    in their original tablespace. Please make sure to review the file imp.log after you do
    this for any and all errors after you import.
    imp userid=scott/tiger full=y ignore=y log=imp.log
    5) you can optionally restore 'unlimited tablespace' to this user (or not). If you do
    not, this user can only create objects in this new tablespace and temp (which in itself
    is not a bad thing)...

  • How can I get all the stuff from my old iPad 2 to my new iPad 2? I have an apple id and have synced and backed up my old iPad 2 regularly.

    How can I get all the stuff from my old iPad 2 to my new iPad 2? I have an apple id and have synced and backed up my old iPad 2 regularly.

    Sky is right you can restore the old backup and it will not affect the old iPad
    To make sure do this:
    1. If you have the old one then just turn off wi-fi and the iPad (that's just for your peace of mind)
    2. Put new iPad on airplane mode (just for no interruptions )
    3. Connect it (while it's on, don't shut it down)
    4. Follow prompts and when it asks if you want to setup as new or restore CHOOSE: RESTORE
    5. It will make its magic (just wait for it to sync, restarts, and finishes) it might ask you to update software if it does just accept
    6. You can rename your new iPad like that you can have a fresh back up
    7. ENJOY your new iPad
    ----------OR-----------
    1. Do the above steps 1, 2, 3.
    2. On step 4 you can choose to set up as new
    3. Then you can choose what to sync on it (click on iPad on the left panel then the tabs on top you choose what you want on it (you can also do that if you restore)
    4. Follow steps 5, 6, 7.
    ****If you don't have your old iPad you can remove it from your account ****
    ****Also when they sync it to a new computer it will setup as new unless they had an old one then they will restore it their old one****
    ****if you have it connected with your MobileMe or iCloud and you have the find my _____ you can also wipe it as soon as it comes online****
    LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS
    AGAIN ENJOY YOUR NEW IPAD!!!

  • Ok, I thought I could do a project in my new Final Cut Pro X. I got everything downloaded on Final Cut and I made my Project. The problem is is has taken so long to render that I don't have time. How do I download the video from Final Cut to Imovie?

    ok, I thought I could do a project in my new Final Cut Pro X. I got everything downloaded on Final Cut and I made my Project. The problem is is has taken so long to render that I don't have time. How do I download the video from Final Cut to Imovie?

    Your media is stored in Final Cut Events folder > "name of event"  > original media. The Final Cut Events folder is in your movies folder or at the root level of an external drive if you are using one to store your media. Simply open iMovie and under file menu select import movies. Navigate to the original media folder and import your clips to Imovie event library.

  • How do I move all the photos from the i-photo library on one account to the i-photo library on another account?

    I have recently bought a new mac mini running Lion, and yesterday I migrated an account off an older machine running Tiger.
    I want to delete the older account from this machine as it is causing some problems with i-cloud, but I want to transfer the photos first and add them to a different account on the new computer.
    So my question is How do I move all the photos from the i-photo library on one account to the i-photo library on another account?

    Copy the iPhoto library from the old Mac to the Desktop of the new one.  Then download the paid version of  iPhoto Library Manager, which is now compatible with Mt. Lion, and use it to merge the two libraries into a new, third library.  This will preserve the two libraries in case the merged library isn't to your liking. 
    Here are screenshots of iPLM's coping and merging preferences:
    When you're satisfied that the new, merged libraray is complete and working OK you can delete the two earlier libraries.

  • How to move all the standard and adhoc reports from cube to multi provider

    How to move all the standard and adhoc reports from the basic cube to multi provider?
    i created this multiprovider to do the maintenence on the basic cube. for example the infocube physical partition, line item dimension and compression.
    what we decided to do is move all the Standard and ad-hoc reports from the basic cube to the multiprovider. How to do it? and make a copy of the basic cube and do the maintenence on the cube. please help.
    Thanks in advance sdn experts!

    Hi Les,
    This sounds good and one thing we try to always keep in mind when undertaking such activities is to always minimise the impact to the user and make the process as transparent to them as possible. So lets say you have your multiprovider and copied queries up in Prod, these queries will still pick up the data from the base cube.
    Now you need to make a copy of the base cube for some changes to the cube model, I would suggest that you copy the cube and make your changes on the copied cube itself. Then 9depending on the changes done) you can load data from Original Cube to New Cube. When this is being done, make sure that you change your queries to add a restriction on 0INFORPOV by Original Cube.
    After the load to the new cube is complete you can run reports restricted to each cube to verify the numbers. Then change the 0INFOPROV restriction in the queries to point to the New Cube and disengage the old cube from the multiprovider.
    Hope this helps...

  • If i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

    if i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

    Depends on how you do it
    If you create a partition with Boot Camp and format that partition correctly
    Then install Windows your data should not be touched
    If you do anything wrong or there is any mishap during the whole procedure you could lose everything
    Hence the reason I suggest that you backup first

  • How to get all the values from the dropdown menu

    How to get all the values from the dropdown menu
    I need to be able to extract all values from the dropdown menu; I know how to get all those values as a string, but I need to be able to access each item; (the value in a dropdown menu will change dynamically)
    How do I get number of item is selection dropdown?
    How do I extract a ?name? for each value, one by one?
    How do I change a selection by referring to particular index of the item in a dropdown menu?
    Here is the Path to dropdown menu that I'm trying to access (form contains number of similar dropdowns)
    RSWApp.om.GetElementByPath "window(index=0).form(id=""aspnetForm"" | action=""advancedsearch.aspx"" | index=0).formelement[SELECT](name=""ctl00$MainContent$hardwareBrand"" | id=""ctl00_MainContent_hardwareBrand"" | index=16)", element
    Message was edited by: testtest

    The findElement method allows various attributes to be used to search. Take the following two examples for the element below:
    <Select Name=ProdType ID=testProd>
    </Select>
    I can find the element based on its name or any other attribute, I just need to specify what I am looking for. To find it by name I would do the following:
    Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("ProdType","SELECT","Name")
    If I want to search by id I could do the following:
    Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("testProd","SELECT","ID")
    Usually you will use whatever is available. Since the select element has no name or ID on the Empirix home page, I used the onChange attribute. You can use any attribute as long as you specify which one you are using (last argument in these examples)
    You can use the FindElement to grab links, text boxes, etc.
    The next example grabs from a link on a page
    Home
    Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("Home","A","innerText")
    I hope this helps clear it up.
