Migrate from old DMM apppliance to a new DMM appliance

Hi Netpos,
I have been assigned to the following task: I need to install and configure a new DMM and SNS in order to update the version to 5.3 (since the old servers could have been updated only up to 5.2.2).
My concern is related with the content (presentations layout,settings,scheduling etc) of the existing appliances.
Is there a way to migrate the content to the new appliances?

Hi Panayotis,
It is currently not supported to backup DMM/SNS configuration and content from one hardware model and restore them on a different hardware model.
A full migration option from legacy DMM hardware to new one is in plans but not available yet. I would recommend you to follow up on this with your Cisco Account team in order to stay updated on the plan.
Regards,
Marco

Boot into recovery mode, launch Disk Utility and wipe the HD. Quit DU and restore the OS. On first boot, migrate properly, using the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide.

Migrated from old Windows XP laptop to new Windows 8 laptop. Bookmarks, passwords, personalized settings are missing?

We purchased a new Windows 8 laptop. I used Windows Easy Transfer to transfer data from the old laptop to the new laptop. Now, my wife's bookmarks, saved passwords, and other personalized settings do not appear on the new laptop.
I am not sure if Windows Easy Transfer actually migrated my wife's Firefox profile. Where would this be stored on the new laptop?
How can I manually migrate her profile from the old computer to the new computer?

I do not know anything about Windows 8 but if you have Firefox installed and running there is an easy method of finding your profile: let Firefox do it for you by using the troubleshooting option as explained in this article
* [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]
** also see [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
I would imagine your wife's profile should be in a similar location to your own but under another user's name.
To manually migrate the profile just overwrite the existing default profile of your wife in Windows 8 with the full profile folder and files from the XP. For full details on how to do this and further background information please look at:

Although I am unable to give you a direct answer to your question I hope the above articles will help, post back with how you get on.

Migrating from old time capsule to a new one

I have a new Time Capsule (4th gen, 2TB) that I want to replace my old Time Capsule (3rd gen, 2TB).
(The rationale is that I was splitting the original between time machine backups and shared home media but it had become full and performance was sluggish despite the auto-deletion of oldest backups. Instead of getting a USB drive for the other media I decided to upgrade my main TC to the newest version but keep the 3rd Gen just for the media.)
What I'm looking for is a simple explanation for how to set up my new TC to replace my old one. The manual isn't clear on this and I can't find a clear thread on the discussion that mirrors my situation.
My guess is that I need to follow these steps:
- initialise the new TC as (just) an external HD to my Mac
- deactivate time machine then copy the sparsebundles to the new TC
- set up the new TC in network router mode
- deactivate the network router mode on my old TC
- swap the new TC for the old TC
- reactivate time machine and point it towards the new network drive
My first question that I'd be grateful for answers to is: is the above correct or would you propose a different approach for any reason?
My second question is how do I then re-mount the old TC as a shared network drive
- can it connect by wifi or do I need to connect it by ethernet or USB to the 'new' TC?
- I assume I can simply delete the old sparsebundle files and repoint iTunes to access the media
Many thanks for your time in responding!

Alot of your steps depend on the first one which is wrong.. sorry.. you cannot use the TC as external HD.. it is now and forever a network drive.
That being the case.. let me suggest the following order.
- deactivate TM.. yes that stops messy things happening.
- setup the new TC to do all the functions of the existing one. The easiest way to do this is simply pull the old one out the network and install the new one.. otherwise you are trying to make two network connections to the two TC which will by default have the same IP. This will depend though on if you normally use ethernet. Do you?? I will suggest it another way if that is the case.
- Factory reset the old TC.. and then set it in bridge mode and plug it into the new TC by ethernet.
- Make sure all the network connections are full gigabit speed. If you are going to copy the old TM across this is going to take maybe a day or more.. assuming you have the 1TB drive full. TC cannot copy from one to the other direct.. it has to go.. TC1-Computer-TC2. which halves the speed.
Do you really need these old backups.. IMHO it is better.. much better.. to start a fresh TM backup. You can get a USB drive to offload the existing backups using the direct archive method.. although you will need the old 5.6 utility to do it.
- Copying sparsebundles is not hard.. just time consuming. See Q18 with every combo of doing this.
http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
- Then you can erase the old TC and load your media on it.. remembering that the TC has no way to back itself up.. and TM cannot backup a network drive.. so if you store itunes library for instance on it.. and access it by wireless.. except that at some stage it will corrupt itself. Count on it. Make sure you have a backup.
- reactivate TM if you did indeed move the old sparsebundle.. and point it to the right target disk.

Use the Office for Mac and ignore using Parallels for that. If you have PC only apps you have to run that are MS Windows only then consider Parallels. Just transfer your main PC, using Migration Assistant. If you don't know how then simply read over Pondini's article called Lion or Mountain Lion Setup Assistant tips and look for the section on migrating from a PC. Millions have done what you are about to, it's far from leading edge these days, if you go to an Apple Store to purchase they will offer this as a service, something you might be interested in.

Call Apple and make a appointment.
You have 3 months of care and up to 3 years with paid AppleCare, let them handle it and bring everything in.

Migration from old macbook air to new macbook air...beware

Although spent hours on the phone with Apple and bought necessary cables, they were not able to get migration assistant to work using ethernet.
You can't use firewire as new macbook air doesn't have it. You can use thunderbold as old macbook air doesn't have it.
Finally I was told to use Time Machine. After connecting old macbook air backup to new macbook air and using migration assistant, I got a message saying (essentially) 'you can use this from an old mac'. Spent more time on the phone with Senior tech support. They had no clue.
Finally called the store. Genius said, you can't migrate from old macbook air with Snow Leopard to new macbook air with Lion. You must upgrade old macbook air to Lion first.
GEEZ, do you think someone at tech support might have mentioned that DAYS ago?

That is bad info.
The MBA that I am using right now used a TM backup from my old MBP, which was running Snow Leopard. Absolutely no problems using Setup Assistant to import all the apps, data, user settings. The session performed flawlessly, and took about an hour to move everything.
If at all possible, use Setup Assitant, rather than Migration Assistant. The transition will be seamless.

Migration from old MBP to new MBP

I am curious. I have set up 10GB of my hard drive on the original MBP for the Windows. In the migration from the original MBP to the new MBP, does the Windows hard drive get migrated over as well?

Gordon:
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
To the best of my knowledge Migration Assistant will Migrate OS X. If Windows is installed in an emulator such as VMware Fusion, it will be migrated, as VMware Fusion is an application that runs in Mac OS X. If it is installed in Boot Camp you will need to clone it separately using a utility like WinClone.

Balance transfer from old recon a/c to new recon a/c

Hello
We have changed the vendor''s reconciliation account.....now we have to transfer the balance of open items....from old recon a/c to new one..........
....what is the best way to do this.......
regards

It says:
A balance sheet eadjustment distributes
receivables and payables in customer and vendor reconciliation accounts,
Account Determination
For each account, you can specify an adjustment account to post the readjustment to. Otherwise, the system posts the readjustment to the original account.
To distinguish readjustment postings from other postings, you should create separate adjustment accounts and have the readjustments posted to them.
Since reconciliation accounts cannot be posted to directly, you have to specify adjustment accounts for them.
Since readjustments are posted without tax, the accounts posted to cannot be relevant to tax.
Adjustment accounts are determined when calculating the distribution.
Can you please check the configuration in OBBW.
Define Adjustment Accounts for Changed Reconciliation Accoun
In this activity you define the numbers of the accounts for the automatic transfer postings which are made if the reconciliation accounts are changed. Postings are made to these accounts to sort the open items.
Sorting open items is necessary to be able to display the receivables and the payables according to the legal requirements for creating balance sheets.
Activities
1. Enter the required accounts.
2. Make sure that the accounts you enter are created.

Can I merge ical from old, non cloud Mac with new one?

Can I merge ical from old, non cloud Mac with new one?
I cannot sync from old G5 so if I backup that iCal, can I merge it with new iCal on my new Mac without losing new Mac calenday details?
Thanks.
Jeff

Jeff,
First, iCloud: How to back up iCloud data.
Next, use iCal>File>Export>Export...for the calendar that you want to use for the export. Move the .ics file to your new computer, and double click the file. You will be offered a choice of creating a new calendar in iCloud, or importing to an existing calendar. Make the appropriate choice for your circumstances.
