Migrate from mac mini mountain lion to mbp lion
Any suggestions on how to migrate a mac mini on mountain lion to a macbook pro on lion. Booting from time machine doesn't work because it only wants to restore to the original computer. Migration assistant doesn't show the backup drive as a source for the restore. Not sure how to proceed.
Let's backup, because when I said that earlier I thought you were leaving Lion on the MBP. So, you should be able to erase the drive in the MBP, then boot from the Time Machine backup. If you have 10.8.2 backed up, then there is an invisible copy of the Recovery HD. Connect the Time Machine backup drive to the MBP.
Boot Using OPTION key:
1. Restart the computer.
2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "OPTION" key.
3. Release the key when the boot manager appears.
4. Select the Recovery HD on the Time Machine backup drive.
5. Click on the arrow button below the icon.
Once it boots up you can use the main menu to first repartition and reformat the MBP's drive, then restore the Time Machine backup to the MBP.
Sort of sorry to go in such circle to get to this point, but I just did not understand the goal. Forgive my being so thick-headed today.

Trying to migrate from Mac-mini Tiger to Mac-mini Lion and Migration Assistant cannot find my Firewire, 400 to 800, "T" disk although it shows up in the new Mac's computer folder. It seems that Mac-mini Tiger is as it should be and the firewire cable is OK. Something about the Migration Assistant is being missed, but I have no idea what it is.
HelpAddendum: I read on a post here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=420169) about removing some kext files in order to trick OSX into thinking that there were no FireWire ports.
I followed the instructions and removed from /System/Library/Extensions/ the following files:
IOFireWireSerialBusProtocolTransport.kext
IOFireWireAVC.kext
IOFireWireFamily.kext
IOFireWireIP.kext
IOFireWireSBP2.kext
I restarted and BAM...Snow Leopard booted crazy fast and the mouse and keyboard worked instantly.
The System Profiler says "No FireWire ports were found."
So this tells me that the FW port is probably the culprit and is messing up the installation.
So how do I hack the Mountain Lion installer and tell it to ignore the FW port, which is obviously quite dead? Or is there something I can do to the Base system that is similar? -
HT4889 Is it possible to migrate from Tiger to Mountain Lion????
It seems that the Mountain Lion migration assistant on a MacBook Air does not see an attached iBook G4 via thunderbolt/firewire as valid volume. For Lion there is an explanation, that it only works via Firewire. What about Mountain Lion? I think the migration assistant should be able to migrate from any ancient OS X version...
No, you cannot migrate directly from Tiger to Mountain Lion as described in HT4889 - Setup Assistant and Migration Assistant are both broken in 10.8.2 and the procedure in HT4889 does not work.
What you can do is either upgrade your iBook G4 to Leopard and then migrate from Leopard to Mountain Lion, or migrate from Tiger to another machine running Leopard/Snow Leopard/Lion and then to your new machine running Mountain Lion.
In theory it is still possible to purchase OS X Leopard directly from Apple as a special order if you call them or something like that. Don't pay $200 to scammers on eBay, please!!
The nice thing about using Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant is that it really seems to do a good job of migrating contacts/calendar/email and everything else, although obviously you will need to replace all of your old PowerPC apps. -
Migration from Mavericks to mountain lion?
Hi,
Apple had to replace my dead hard drive (Macbook pro). Then they reinstalled Mavericks while I was on Mountain lion previously.
I used Migration Assistant to transfer profile from my iMAC (Mountain Lion 10.8.5) to my Macbook Pro (with new hard drive and Mavericks 10.9.2). Although my profile has been installed on my refreshed macbook pro, it is still using Mavericks and not Mountain lion as I expected. Is there anything that I can do to transfer my iMAC to my Macbook pro (and overwrite MAvericks)?
Many thanks for your advice.You can only roll back as far as the OS that your computer shipped with. If the replacement system is one that would have shipped with Mav's that is as far back as you can go. This is likely the situation.
You can always try and re-install Mountain Lion if you'd like by completely erasing your Macintosh HD and using a a USB installer with Mountain Lion: http://www.macrumors.com/2012/07/25/create-a-bootable-mountain-lion-usb-key-inst aller/
but even if that is possible, which it may not be on that system, it may cause more issues than it is worth.
Is there a reason you do not want to use Mavericks? -
Mac Mini/Mountain Lion sleeps but won't wake up (or crashes) every night.
Hi everybody,
I have a mid-2010 mac mini server on which I recently installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 (without server stuff).
Every night, it stops responding. The led is on but the display is off and it does not respond to mouse/keyboard. I even tried remote desktop.
The only solution is the power button...
What I already did :
- Reset Pram/Nvram
- Reset SMC
I also took a look at the console and I found a message that is fired just before the machine stops responding.

Any clue ?Hi, I'm quite interested by your issue, because i get the exact same one.
On my mini (late 2012), system doesn t wake up from sleep if it has slept for more than 1 hour.
In fact I get the exact same message as you get in your console.
When I try and wake up system before the programmed maintenance wakeup, it wakes up fine.
But as soon as this programmed time has passed, it just won t wake up, I have to force switch it off via the power button and restart it.
I have nothing plugged on my mini except : AC - Thunderbolt display, and LAN connected to my freebox.
Do you still have the issue or is it ok now for you ?
I'll try in the upcoming days to plug the freebox in the thunderbolt display's adapter instead of the macmini's rj45. -
I have a mac mini with 2GB ram. I just downloaded OSX Mountain Lion and my performance has come to a crawl. WIll adding memory solve this problem?
Most definitely, 2GB of RAM is hardly enough to run Mountain Lion, let alone Safari and other App's at the same time.

Kernel panics mac mini mountain lion
Been having Kernel Panics on 2012 Mac Mini since September. Running Mountain Lion. I've done hardware test, Apple Store did one as well. Here's a list of things I thought were causing them:
Bad Monitor
Bad Monitor Cable
Use of USB devices, including 3rd party keyboards and mice (non-apple), hard drives and external dvd drives/writers
Time Machine
Connection to a Windows File Server
Logmein
DVD Fab
I've changed and/or deleted all of the above and am still getting them. Lately, they seem to be associated with internet surfing. Happens with Safari, Chrome and Firefox, seemingly random. But not isolated to just internet surfing. Have had them when importing pictures using Iphoto, using Itunes, or even when the computer was unattended and not being used at all.
I've also zapped PRAM, repaired disk permissions and more.
Here is my latest log:

I have a 2011 Mac Mini running 10.7 server (i7, 8Gb RAB, Dual 500 GB 7200 rpm drives). I use the Mini exclusively as a DAW and am running Logic Express 9 with Native Instrument and Toontrack VST's. I also use a Presonus Firewire mixer.
I am planning my upgrade to 10.8 while I wait for all my VST's to become fully compatible (with 10.8), I wanted know if Mountain Lion will bring significant performance improvements or if am I better off staying with 10.7 Server ?Let me ask the question again, why are you planning to upgrade to 10.8? What does 10.8 do that 10.7 does not?
Honestly, the first prinicple of a working computer is - if it is stable and you are productive with it, don't change it unless you know why the change is required.
If 10.8 does something that you really need, jump on it. But, before you do, make a full working clone of your 10.7 system disk. This is your insurance if things go south in the upgrade process or your programs are not fully compatible. You can get back to your working system in an hour or so.
Good luck,

Migrating from SnowLeopard to Mountain Lion does not start
Just got a brand new 15"MacBook Pro Retina running Mountain Lion.
First thing I tried to do after selecting language and keyboard was to try to migrate everything from my 15" MacBookPro running Snow Leopard but the process does not even start
After connecting both via ethernet cable, the computers recongnized each other, and I started the process but it has been showing "Preparing to transfer user documents for more than 4 hours"
No progress bar, no expected time for completion. nothing at all
Any suggestions on what to do?
Thanks in advanceDiable anti virus software.

How do I copy files from Mac Book Mountain Lion 10.8.3 to a Seagate External Hard Drive
please help
Have you connected the drive to your computer? Is the drive formatted for a Mac? Can you see the drive either on the desktop or in the sidebar of a Finder window? Are you able to (double) click on the drive icon to open it up in Finder? If yes to these, you should just be able to drag and drop.

Incorrect link to "OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mountain Lion and earlier". Should be http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6025
I think the OP is saying OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mountain Lion and earlier (which should be a link to HT4889) just links back to OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mavericks (HT5872).
It does indeed do that, & HT4889 seems to be MIA. -
I have two older macs running Mountain Lion that have been upgraded over the years from Leopard. They have continued to be able to print to a Canon IP5000 and use a driver that is fully functional. On the new MacBook Pro, the printer is found, but no driver is available for Mountain Lion from apple or Canon. Is there a way of getting the driver info from the old mac so that it will work on the new one?
Sorry, it says "New Event," not "New Entry." My bad.

I just updated my mac from Tiger to Mountain Lion. wiped the computer clean and started fresh Loaded Photoshop elements 11 (brand new in the box) and when I try to start it - it comes up saying - Licensing for the product has stopped working contact for help. in Looking for help I was directed here. what do I do?
I don't know enough to not follow directions. I bought the software brand new in a sealed from factory box. Had it sitting around until - last week when I deleted flash on my computer and had to upgrade to the new OSX. Mountain Lion doesn't use iPhoto - so I had to go with something else. Since I already had this new - unopened package I opened it up. Shut down all running programs - inserted the disk and followed all the directions for installation. Still it didn't work.
I have now uninstalled it (the proper way) and am going to try again.
I appreciate your responses.
Thank you!
If this doesn't work - I am going to just buy Lightroom.
