Merge mailbox contents of iBook G4 & MacBook

I'm wanting to merge the mailbox contents of "Mail" Version 2.1.3 (753.1) from my old iBook G4 (Mac OS X Version 10.4.11). The message says "you can't use this version of the application Mail with this version of Mac OS X (10.6.4). I'm aware I could "forward" them through my ISP, but is there a simpler solution please.

My iBook fan comes on every once in a while when things really start to get hot. It runs for a while and then shuts off. Crashing before the fan comes on might be due to something other than just heat.
A dead fan should give an error code with the Apple Hardware Test.
Keep in mind, even a dead iBook has value for a lot of people, either parted out or whole. A marginally working one might even have more.
Check out this thread for suggestions:

Good luck!

  • How to export my mailboxes from Imac to new Macbook Pro?

    I am getting a new Macbook Pro 13" today (not sure if it will ship with Snow Leopard). How can I just move all of my mailbox contents, and maybe bookmarks from Safari and other account information over from my Imac Time Machine backup. A few months ago I used my Time Machine from the Imac to move everything over to the new portable, including PHotos and all documents, etc. Is there a way of picking and choosing during setup assistance just a few things.
    The other option is whether I can simply export the contents of my mailbox into a file--two accounts--over to the new computer? Can I do the same with the contents of Iphoto and ITunes?
    Thanks

    See the following:
    Folders You Can Move to Your new Mac
    From the Home folder copy the contents of Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites.
    In your /Home/Library/ folder:
    /Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
    /Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
    Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
    /Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)

  • From iBook to MacBook, from '06 to '08: A big leap indeed!

    I currently have an iBook. I have just purchased a new MacBook. I created a site using iWeb '06,
    and I need to:
    (1) transfer the website from iBook to MacBook
    (2) and go from '06 to '08.
    How does one transfer a site from one computer to another? (Even if you copy the contents of your "sites" folder, iWeb doesn't create it, I've found when I tried to transfer from one user account to another.)
    And will there be any problems going from '06 to '08?

    Hi xharris,
    1) Have a look at the following page about transferring the website from one computer to the other
    http://alyeska.altervista.org/en/iWebTransferSite.html
    (also read Note 1 of that page!)
    2) Be sure to update iWeb '08 to the latest version (2.0.3). Then double-click the domain file you transferred and iWeb will launch and prompt you to update the domain file to version 2.
    The problems some people experience are that some objects might move and not be in the right place anymore or things like that. Just have a look at it once you opened it in iweb '08 before publishing it to the web.
    Also make a Backup of the Domain file before- after- you updated and from time to time

  • Exchange 2007 - restored (merged) Mailboxes - Problem with items in Outlook

    Hey guys,
    last week we had to restore and merge our Exchange Mailbox Database. We had a running Database with data until Oct 14 and merged a recent backup into the User Mailboxes.
    Some mailboxes didn´t have problems, others have from then on doublicated Mails, Calendar Items, Tasks, ... even deleted/renamed folders appear now again WITH email content.
    I don´t understand what happend there and if I can do something.
    Hope someone could help me!
    Regards

    Hi,
    According your post, I understand that some mailbox contain duplicate items after restore and merge mailbox.
    If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Are you run Restore-Mailbox with AllowDuplicates parameter? Please double check in OWA.
    Besides, please run below command to check the structure of mailbox folder:
    MailboxFolderStatistics “identity” | Select Name,FolderSize,FolderAndSubfolderSize
    If the issue only occur on Outlook client side, please run Outlook with online mode or reconfigure a new profile for testing.
    Thanks

  • Merge Folder Contents

    Hey all,
    I've been trying to merge the contents of my MacBook Pro's iTunes folder with that on my external HD. I deleted a lot of the music on my laptop, but downloaded new songs from the Apple Store.
    How do I merge the contents, keep the old and add the new? I tried a simple click-and-drag, but that deleted the songs which weren't in the folder on my laptop, and I lost a lot of music.
    Thanks.
    Best,
    Ted

  • After I used the migration tool to transfer contents of my previous MacBook Pro I cannot log in to my new MacBook Pro. I have tried using old and new passwords but to no effect. I cannot use my Apple ID. How can I re-set my MBook to factory setting pls?

    I have been a proud owner of Apple products for many years. However, this problem is very frustrating! Any help will be appreciated. I used the migration tool to transfer the contents of my old MacBook Pro to my new shiny MacBook Pro Retina! After migration finished I tried to access my new MacBook Pro retina. However, when asking me to log in it refuses to accept the passwords from either the new MacBook or the old one! I do not have the option of using my Apple ID either.... Please help! Unfortunately, I am past my 90 day Apple Support!!

    Restart holding down the CMD+R keys, launch Disk Utility and erase the HD, quit DU, and restore the OS. On first boot, use the Setup Assistant to do the migration. Details in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide.

  • When I bought my Mac Air OSX Version 10.9.2 my daughter helped me migrate the contents of my previous macbook.  But in the process seems to have duplicated the iTunes library .  The start up disk is almost full and plus it doesn't my iPhone.  Please help!

    When I bought my Mac Air OSX Version 10.9.2 my daughter helped me migrate the contents of my previous macbook.  But in the process seems to have duplicated the iTunes library - How do I get rid of one.  The start up disk is almost full and plus it doesn't synch properly with my iPhone 4S.  Please help!

    Hello nicky:
    You should run repair disk from your software install DVD before you try anything else. The crash may have damaged some of your directories - and a possible cause of the "missing/not missing" tunes.

  • How can I ensure the content in iBooks on my iPad also syncs with my mini iPad?

    How can I ensure my content in iBooks on my iPad 3 syncs with the iBooks in my mini iPad?

    If they are iTunes purchased/downloaded ibooks then as long as they are still in the store you should be able to re-download them via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app on the second device. For ebooks and epubs from other sources you will need to sync them - even though they aren't iTunes purchases you should be able to copy them from a device to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync them to the other device. You can then keep bookmarks and collections in-line between the two devices via Settings > iBooks on the two devices (the 'sync collections' will keep collections in-line between devices, but it won't copy the copy the actual ibooks between devices).

  • How to make table of contents in IBooks Author?

    I am having trouble with the Table of Contents in IBooks Author, I have completed successfully all the steps and pages,
    photos and widgets, but have been stuck on the Table of Contents for months.  I've Googled and searched for help,
    but either don't understand or it doesn't apply to my book.  I am trying to publish a Children's Book which really doesn't need
    the Table of Contents, but apparently they won't publish without one. 
    Please advise if you have an answer for this frustrating problem,
    thank you!

    Crafting a chapter-less book is possible, but a minimum of one section is required.
    Remove the chapter label, leave the TOC blank and you'll then have a basic/generic point from which to work with. Use the 'File/Save As Template' menu before modifying further if you want to reuse later, etc.
    Keep in mind that the default navigation means at the very least there will be a series of small dots along the bottom of the screen indicating sections, which when tapped will display thumbnails. If your book isn't doing that (landscape), try another template.

  • I just installed ios8.0 on my iPad, and now I can't preview my content in iBooks Author. What does "No ATC" mean? That's the message I get.

    I just installed iOS 8.0 on my iPad, and now I can't preview my content on iBooks Author. I get the message "No ATC". What does that mean?

    I am geting the same message when updating to IOS-5.  "Please re-insert you SIM, or visit your carrier store to receive a replacement SIM card."  Unfortunately we are stuck as well and I have not found anyone yet to give a solution???  Will end up going to Apple tomorrow :-(

  • I installed Magellan Content Manager on my MacBook Pro. I want to delete it. How do I do that?

    I installed Magellan Content Manager on my MacBook Pro. I want to delete it. How do I do this?

    It is easiest to do this if you have access to an external hard drive that is formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled).
    Attach the hard drive.
    In iMovie on your Mac Book, click VIEW?EVENTS BY DISK.
    You should see a small icon for your external drive in your Project Library List. Hold down the Command Key while dragging the small icon for your Project to the small icon for the external drive - then drop.
    (Note 1: Holding down the Command Key makes this a move. If you do not hold down the Command key, it will Copy not Move.)
    (Note 2: If you used Keywords, use Copy not Move. If you use Move, you will lose the Keywords.)
    Now, select the Project in the Project Library so it is highlighted. Click FILE/CONSOLIDATE MEDIA...
    This will copy over all music and photos used in the project, and it will either Copy or Move all Events used in the project to the external drive.
    When done, you can eject the external drive and plug it into the new Mac.
    You can run the project off the external drive as is. However, if you want to move everything to the internal drive, you can repeat the process above. Command-Drag the project to the internal drive, and then select it, and FILE/CONSOLDATE MEDIA...
    Consolidate Media moves or copies all assets to the same drive where the project is.

    When is apple going to make ibook for MacBook? I use Nook because its avalible for my MacBook. Im not going to buy a ipad just to read on.

    "When is apple going to make ibook for MacBook? "  There is no way to know when or if such a thing will happen unless Apple announces.

  • HT4059 can you use ibook on macbook pro

    can you use ibook on macbook pro? If so, how do i read the free books from itune?

    "if you can use the Kindle app from iPad to Macbook, shouldn't you be able to do the same with an apple product?"
    No.
    The kndle app provides this feature.
    Ibooks does not.
    " I would rather buy books from iBooks"
    You can buy form whomever you like.
    " but not being able to go from device to device like in Kindle is a problem."
    You can read iboks on ipod touch/ipad/iphone, just not your computer.

  • I've just bought a new mac and I want to transfer the content from my old Macbook to my new. If I have iCloud enabled on both devices, is this simple, or is there a limit to what I can transfer? For example, can I upload word files to iCloud?

    I've just bought a new mac and I want to transfer the content from my old Macbook to my new. If I have iCloud enabled on both devices, is this simple, or is there a limit to what I can transfer? For example, can I upload word files to iCloud?

    iCloud is not the way to do this. You should use Migration Assistant - with this you can transfer your complete User folder from the old Mac including preferences and logins. You will need to connect the two with FireWire or USB depending on the models.
    Ideally you should do this before you set up the new Mac - if you create a user account with the same name than the Migration will have to give the migrated user folder a different name. When you first switch on the new Mac it should ask you if you want to transfer your data, and give you instructions.
