Migrate I-Web to a new Mac

I bought a new I-Mac and tried to migrate the I-Web sites from the old one to the new.
I copied them in exactly the same folders but don't appear.
What can I do?
thanks in advance for help

Transfer website from web to a new Mac.

I created my website on my old Mac. It is dead.
I want to transfer my domain from the web to my new Mac and edit with IWeb.
Thanks!

Carl ~ iWeb can't import your published site from the web. iWeb can only open its key Domain file (containing your site data) usually located here:
...If you can't access that on your old Mac and you have no backup copy, you'll have to rebuild the site from scratch — paragraph 2.3 of this FAQ page gives some tips on how to use published files, graphics, photos, etc., to help rebuild the site from scratch:

HT4413 Migration Assistant for a brand new mac that has been used already?

My dad bought a Mini but has been using it for a few months but didn't transfer anything from his old Mac. All his address book entries and files are still on his original Mac. Can Migration Assistant still be of help to transfer over the data without erasing what he's accumlated on his new Mac? Is it going to write over his email for instance?
Thanks!

Migration Assistant is not the tool you need to use at this point. Instead you should manually copy the data you want from the old computer to the new computer. If both computers have Firewire ports then use Target Disk Mode - Transferring files between two computers using FireWire. Boot the old computer into TDM and the new computer normally. You should then find a disk icon for the old computer's drive on the Desktop of the new computer.
Before you do any of the described file copying below be sure you have quit Mail and Address Book if they are now open except where directed.
For Mail you open Mail and select Import from the File menu. Check the top option to import from Apple Mail. Navigate on the old computer to its /Users/username/Library/Mail/ folder and then locate a folder named "Mailboxes." Select the folder and click on the Open button. Select the mailboxes you want to import and click on the Import/OK button. This will import the old mail to a new set of mailboxes in Mail under a mailbox named Imported. You can then move the old mail to wherever you want in Mail.
For contacts locate the /Users/username/Library/Applications Support/AddressBook/ folder. Copy the entire folder to the new computer to the same location on the new computer.
Last, navigate to the /Users/username/Library/Preferences/ folder and copy these preference files: com.apple.mail.plist and all beginning with com.apple.AddressBook. Copy them to the same location on the new computer.

Migrate from old G4 to new mac mini

how can i migrate from an old mac without airport to a new mini? i have them connected by a firewire cable.

See the following: Transferring files between two computers using FireWire
A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications Screensavers written for the PowerPC System Preference add-ons All Unsanity Haxies Browser and other plug-ins Contextual Menu Items Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5 Kernel extensions Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro , SuperDuper , and Drive Genius work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
4. Startup your old Mac in Target Disk Mode.
5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following: >MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)- Migration Tips and Tricks:

Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
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) /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist /Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft.
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

HT1661 I am trying to migrate using firewire to a new mac.

When cables are connected and the old mac is rebooted as target disc the new mac cannot see the old mac to start migration. I have update all software. (old mac 10.6.8 and new mac is 10.7) any ideas. The new mac asks: 'make sure both computers are connected to the same network'

The target disk mode is not working.
Just use a external drive to copy from the old Mac
Then create the same named user accounts on the new machine, log into each of them and import their respective files manually into their Music, Pictures Movies, Documents folders, should be done a lot faster than Migration over Wifi.
Don't copy 10.6 Library, that's different in 10.7 and now hidden. Don't copy the entire users folder, just the contents of Music, Docs, Pics etc into the same folders on the 10.7 machine. Drag and drop copy, simple and elegant, less issues.
Programs: reinstall these from fresh sources using the same license codes, delete off the old machine.
Some times you have to contact the developer for a new key for the new machine, the old key is retired.
This method is better than using Migration Assistant, less chances of problems/corruption/slow downs, you'll have to tweak things a bit more again of course, minor really.
As you should know you can't use older PPC based programs on the 10.7 machine anyway.

Migrating old iPhoto Library to new Mac

Hi,
I recently experienced a hard drive crash on my 5 yr old iMac, so I've purchased a new one instead of repairing and upgrading the old one. I now have a large iPhoto library on a backup drive (drag file copy, not Time Machine, and yes I am using Time Machine now...). Since I started with an older version of iPhoto, I have the Library folder with all the folders visible inside, like the Originals, Modified, etc. I was surprised to see that the iPhoto Library on my new system is a single file. I had hoped to just drag the existing folders to the appropriate location on the new Mac. Barring that, I tried importing the Library from my backup drive into iPhoto '11 on my new system (by just highlighting the Library folder in the import window), and boy what a mess I have now. Most events appear two or three times, with some folders containing all the photos, some containing smaller versions (some type of thumbnails I presume). I had around 25K photos on the old system, now I have over 55K after importing them to the new Mac. After having spent a gajillion hours editing the original photos for dust, color correction, etc, I'm not at all interested in re-doing all this work. I've done some searching but can't find any documentation on moving my old Library to my new iMac. Any suggestions or a good URL would be great.
Thanks
Lou

Never import one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
In your case I woukd simply start over. Trash that Library on the new machine.
To migrate a Library to a new machine is simple:
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine (or in your case, from the Hard Drive) to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
I was surprised to see that the iPhoto Library on my new system is a single file.
Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
Accessing the files in the Library via the Finder has not been supported on any version of iphoto. As an FYI:
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Migrating/upgrading CS5.5 to new mac lion

I currently run CS4 on a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard. I have a new iMac with Lion and I want to upgrade both to CS5.5. My plan was to
     1. leave CS4 on old mac
     2. use Migration Assistant (too late for Setup Assistant!) to bring CS4 along with all the other applications and everything else to new mac from a Time Machine back up on external HD
     3. upgrade both from my new CS5.5 disks
I have been reading about some issues with CS5.5 on Lion and I'm wondering if there is a better way to minimize the potential for problems and accomplish what I want to do. My main concerns are InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and Dreamweaver which I use in a pretty self-taught kind of way. Thank you.

Sarahw2e the biggest issue you could end up having would be to use the Migration assistant to transfer over Creative Suite 4. If you want Creative Suite 4 to be installed on your new Macintosh then I would recommend a fresh installation from the install media.
For issues with Lion in general I would recommend reviewing Known issues | Adobe products | Mac OS 10.7 Lion.

Problems migrating PS CS5 to our new Mac

We just purchased a new iMac and are starting to transfer all our stuff over from our old Mac mini. The first order of business was to move over Lightroom, and that went fine; it works just like on the old machine. However, we're having trouble getting PS to work.
We deactivated PS on the old machine and downloaded the disk image for PS from Adobe. When we ran the installer, it accepted our serial number, and completed with no problems. However, starting PS gives the message "Could not initialize Photoshop failed to initialize CoolType." There's an OK button which just makes the application quit. After scratching our heads a bit and not making progress, we tried running the uninstaller and then reinstalling from scratch--same result. We found some suggestions dealing with such a problem that involved users on network file systems, but we of course don't have anything like that. This is for an iMac with OS X version 10.6.6. Any ideas? We have no clue where to start.

…to be safe we decided to start from scratch. We reinstalled the OS and factory apps…
A very wise move.
In my experience gained when helping troubleshoot a substantial number of Macs over the years, "migrating" either OS files, applications, or program files is a guarantee of endless grief in the long run. Others disagree.
My advice is to install from the original media. Data files have to be copied, transferred or migrated, of course.

Migration assistant can't find new mac

Any ideas?

No, I'm quite clearly not,
Having never run the setup migration or standalone migration routines I wasn't aware that it had skipped a step and I was setting up a new account. I was filling fields in expecting it to be part of the process, not a different thing entirely.
That said, I did by mistake, realised mistake, rectified it. None of that relates to my original query, which i typed in a hurry on an ipad as both macs were in meltdown.
This was a lot more annoying a process than I expected, and compounded by having to deal with a keyboardwarrior into the bargain.
The solution to original probem was turn off and on again . At that point my old mac could see the new one and the transfer started, or rather, didn't.
You sir are a buffoon.
People come here for help, not abuse from the likes of you, if you've nothing helpful to say then stick a sock in it.
You made the error of using Migration rather than Setup Assistant, Apple didn't do that for you. I don't care how high your horse is, nobody else's hands are on your keyboard.

Migrate email from old to new mac (outlook to entourage)

Hello.
Anyone have any ideas on how to migrate email messages from an old imac (OS 9.2) to a new one (OS X). The old machine is running Outlook and the new one is Entourage. There are ways to save individuals messages as text and then move them over, but that is a lot of saving (one at a time). I don't see an export option in Outlook.
Thanks for any advice.
imac Mac OS X (10.4.7)

When you booted up the new machine the first time, did you use the migration assistant? If not, you might want to try using the Restore disk and restore the Mac Pro to its factory state. Also, take a look at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25773 and A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs. Those should get you started in the right direction.

Migration Assistant Deleted Files from New Mac

I had bought a new laptop and wanted to put the files from my old laptop onto my new one and used the time machine and migration assistant. When I realized that i forgot to transfer a folder, I went back on the migration assistant and only clicked to transfer the desktop folder and no other files. Once the transfer was complete, I realized that all my files that I had accumulated recently onto my new laptop were deleted. Is there anyway to get those files back (they weren't on the time machine, since they were from the past week or so)?

Did you have TM running with the new laptop.. if so you should be able to recover the lost files.. otherwise they could be gone.
Did you have the same user logged on as you had in the original setup.. when you migrate it is so so important NOT to use the same login name.. by doing it twice you might have messed it up. Unless you were backing up the files are gone.. but make sure there is not another user created on the disk.
You might be able to undelete files but I am not very hopeful. That might be the last opportunity though to recover.

Getting migrated CS4 running on a new Mac

I bought Creative Suite 4 Design Premium a few years ago and installed and used it on my 2008 MacBook Pro until last Sunday. It was never installed on any other computer. On Monday I replaced that machine with a new MacBook Pro and migrated everything from the old machine to the new one via a Time Machine backup. Both machines are running Yosemite 10.10.1. I understand from Adobe's "Activation & Deactivation Help" file that activation should take place automatically on the new machine when I open one of the CS4 applications, but when I try to open any of them I receive the following message:
"Licensing for this product has stopped working.
"This product has has encountered a problem which requires that you restart your computer before it can be launched.
"If you continue to see this message after restarting your computer, please contact either your IT administrator or Adobe technical support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.
"Error: 150:30
"http://www.adobe.com/support/"
Restarting the computer doesn't help, and I don't know what to do now. I don't see anything pertinent on the Adobe support site, though I obviously haven't looked at every page and link there. I'm very reluctant to deactivate CS4 on the old machine before I get it working on the new one. I understand that I'm supposed to be able to have it activated on two machines, as long as it's only used on one of them at a time.
Can anyone help me get CS4 running again, or direct me to a helpful Adobe document?

Migration seldom works with Adobe software - you need to install using installation files. If your disc doesn't load in properly there are links where you can download the installation files.
Uninstall and use the Cleaner Tool. Then install using your discs or via download.
