Migrated from XP Pro 32 Bit to Win 7 Pro 64 Bit

Used WET, yes another issue with WET, to transfer files from old to new.  I have tried the mig extraction tool and tried transferring back to XP Pro 32 bit machine with no luck.  I do not find the savedata.mig file but I do have a x86 and amd64 directories for 32bit and 64bit within the WindowsEasyTransfer folder which is inside the USMT2.UNC parent directory.
USMT2.UNC
  - WindowsEasyTransfer (folder)
      - amd64 (folder) contains migsetup and other mig related files and support files.
      - x86 (folder) contains migsetup and other mig related files and support files.
  - files IMG000A.DAT to IMG00017.DAT
  - autorun
  - status
  - Windows Easy Transfer (shortcut)
I have spent hours on the phone with MS support to no avail.  Is there any solution yet to extract data from those files knowing what OS WET was used originally to the new OS, in my case 64bit Win7 Pro?  Is there a way to understand the format used to pack the files at the code level?  I have A LOT, as others do as well, of important files/information within those files and I need them back.
So far I can do a bit by bit view of those files but dont know what patterns to look for, encryption/format used, etc....

·         Hi,
As far as I know,  those .DAT files are not quite compatible with Windows 7. Based on my research, as a solution, you can use the loadstate of USMT 2.6.2 to recover .DAT files in a USMT2.UNC directory from the previous Windows XP installation. To do this, please type the following command:
loadstate [Data location]\ /v:5 /l:log.txt /user:"username" /lac
This will restore your user files from XP in Windows 7 in a c:\Document and Settings\%user% directory. Then check the folder to see if you get your files back.
Best Regards
Dale

    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.

  • Migrating from Power Mac G5 to Mac Pro

    Just ordered a new Mac Pro 2009 Nehalem Model, 2.66GHz, Quad Core, 640GB HD, 3GB Ram,
    OSX 10.6 and it should arrive this week.
    I am migrating from my old reliable Power Mac G5, Model 7,2, 400GB System HD, 750GB Scratch Disk HD, 5GB Ram, OSX 10.4.11. The major apps that I have been running are:
    Final Cut Studio 1 (with Final Cut Pro 5.1.4)
    Quick Time 7.6.4
    ILife 08
    IWork 08
    ITunes 9.0.3
    I would like to make the transition to the new Mac Pro as easy and painless as possible.
    Can anyone offer the correct steps do a proper migration that will insure that my files
    (especially the video files & address book entries) are saved and the new machine works as
    it is designed to work?
    Thanks

    Connect the two via Firewire cable and use Migration Assistant or see the following:
    A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
    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 4.1, TechTool Pro 4.6.1, SuperDuper 2.5, and Drive Genius 2.0.2 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.
    Additional links that will be helpful to new Intel-Mac users:

    Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
    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;
    MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)- What to do if migration is unsuccessful;
    MacBook Air- Migration Tips and Tricks;
    MacBook Air- Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and wireless 802.11n networks.
    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)

    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.

  • Migrate from macbook 10.6 to macbook pro 10.5 with time machine

    A disaster fried my macbook. It was running 10.6 and time machined to a timecapsule. I have bought a macbook pro running 10.5 (excitement!). I want to get the data from the timecapsule to the macbook pro without a hitch. I have a family pack of 10.6. I will eventually install 10.6 on the macbook pro.
    I understand that on setup you have the option of importing (using migration assistant?) from a time machine backup. But does this work if the macbook pro is 10.5 and the data is of a 10.6 backup?
    If there will be problems, what are the solutions? Should I initially upgrade the macbook pro to 10.6? If so, does the family pack 10.6 disk do a complete clean install? That is, would this affect installing the ilife suite and other stuff from the macbook pro install disks?
    Alternatively, should I take the harddisk out of the fried macbook and put it in the macbook pro, then clone that system, e.g. carbon copy cloner, and proceed that way?
    As you might guess, I am dazed and confused.
    Your humble servant, &c,
    kizkij

    If both systems are the exact same system, simply taking your hard drive out of the broken machine and installing it in the new machine should give you no problems. At the very least, take the hard drive out of the old system and put in an external enclosure, then mount the drive to the new computer, and you can drag/drop your files.
    Snow Leopard will let you do a clean install (I booted from the SL disc, then used Disk Utility to wipe the drive, then proceed with installation). You can use your Apple software installer disc (for that system) after you upgrade to Snow Leopard with no problems.

  • Migrating from iMac G5 (Tiger) to Macbook Pro (Leopard) over a network

    I just got my new Macbook (running Leopard) and trying to migrate all my files/settings from my iMac over (running Tiger). The instructions tell me to use Migration Assistant.
    On new Mac, I open Migration Assistant and select migrate "From other Mac". I am doing this over network so a 6 digit code was provided. It then instructs me to power on my old Mac, ensure latest OS X software is updated (10.4.11), open Migration Assistant and select migrate "To another Mac".
    Here's where I am stuck. On my old Mac, there is no "To another Mac" option to select.. thus I am not given a chance to input the 6 digit code to connect the 2 computers.
    Is the problem to do with my old Mac being an older version, thus it's Migration Assistant application is also older and does not support a migrate "to another mac" option?

    Migration Assistant does not work well for migrating from a Power PC machine to an Intel Machine. Try this instead:

  • Migration from Photoshop Elements 8 (Windows 7 64 bit) to PE 12 (MAC)

    I am planning to move from a PC Windows 7-based system to a MAC.  As part of this move I will need to migrate Photoshop Elements from PE 8 in Windows to PE 12 on MAC.  Back in July, I previously asked what steps would be necessary to migrate to PE 11 on MAC, but I delayed making the move (waiting for the new MacBook Pro) and will now be migrating to PE 12. 
    Do I still follow the same steps for a (hopefully!) smooth transition of my tagged photos and catalog?  i.e., migrate from PE 8 (Windows) to PE 12 (Windows).  Then from PE 12 (Windows) to PE 12 (MAC).  Are there any gotchas or caveats that I should be aware of?  I've read a few horror stories in various places and am nervous. 
    Thanks, Amy

    I'm a bit slow on implementation.  So far I have good news and bad news.  But bottom line, I need some additional help.
    First the good news: The upgrade in Windows from PE 8 to PE 12 went smoothly, with all tags and their hierarchical structure maintained.  Ditto for Albums which showed up under "Local Albums."
    I am now stymied with the bad news and hoping for more guidance:  I just got my new MacBook last week, with my data files transfered over from my Windows PC.  Unfortunately, the migration to PE 12 MAC (installed for me with the disc from the boxed version) did not make the transition smoothly.  All of my tags came in under "Imported Keyword Tags," with the hierarchical structure totally flattened, and they cannot be dragged-and-dropped into a renewed structure into People, Places, and Events tags, as appropriate.  Also, all of my Albums have disappeared. 
    I'm thinking that maybe I should restore the catalog.  But when I started to do so, I was asked to choose between New or Original Location.  Then, when I chose "original location" (not wanting to clutter my new hard drive with duplicates), PE 12 gave me a warning about the potential for changes to the existing file structure.  So I stopped and decided to come back to the Adobe Forum for more help. 
    Thanks in advance!  Again!  Amy

  • Migrating from PS Elements 6.0 (WIN) to LR (MAC)

    Hello all...tried searching the forums for advice on migrating my PS Elements 6.0 (WIN) library to LR (MAC). No success. Hoping that someone here can offer advice on how to successfully make the move. My PS Elements library is fully organized into albums, lots of keyword too.
    Any advice on how t make this the move with as little pain as possible will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Buy 2.0 when it comes out. 1.x came out before Elements 6 and so doesn't support migration. 2.0 will, but only on Windows. So you'll need to migrate it on Windows then move it to mac.

  • Migrating from G4 Mac Mini to Mac Pro

    Hi There,
    I'll be receiving my new Mac Pro tomorrow - to say I'm excited is an understatement - and I want to make sure I set it up as efficiently as possible. I plan on having the same 3 Account names on the new Mac Pro, and I'm happy re-installing all of my favourite applications for the Intel version, but its my data that's bothering me.
    Is it really as simple as copying the relevant folders from the Mini to the Pro ?
    I'm only really interested in Mail (for my wife's mail account), my iTunes Library, my photos (from iPhoto '06 to '08) and my Firefox/Safari bookmarks. Having read various threads, it seems that I overwrite the whole folder on the new Pro with the whole folder from the Mini e.g. \home\library\Mail on the Mini overwrites \home\library\Mail on the Pro, \home\pictures from Mini overwrites \home\pictures on the Pro, etc
    I'm worried that in copying these folders to the new Pro that I'm going to bring old crap over and soil my nice new Pro.
    Anyone care to re-assure/correct me ?
    Thanks

    If your Mini is already running Leopard I don't see a problem using Migration Assistant. Or you can connect the two via Target Disk Mode and simply copy your personal files to the new computer. This latter is the safest method. The following will help with certain items:
    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)
    /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
    /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder)
    /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)

  • Migrating from G5 mac to Mac Book Pro: How to use the Migration Assistant?

    Unfortunately, my G5 Mac died with a logic board defect. Fortunately, all the data are preserved as the harddisk is fully working (and ready to migrate)
    Now to come to my question: I want to migrate the data from my G5 harddisk to my MacBook Pro using the migration assistant. My major interest is to preserve my preference settings as well as the application support folder within the library folder. Will I run into trouble as some of the applications won´t run properly on Intel Macs or will the migration assistant automatically sort those out. If not, it seems like a lot of manual work I´ll have to do.
    How have others done the port from G4/G5 to Intel Macs (additionally, it will be from Tiger to leopard to make things even more complicated)?
    Thanks a lot for your help

    Thanks very much for your help

    Hi Wolfgang,
    Using MA from a PPC to an Intel Mac can give you some trouble down the road. Usually, the problems caused by this are difficult to track down, so you are better off moving selected files manually.
    Kappy has written a helpful guide for the PPC to Intel transition, which you can read in this thread:

  • HT1373 I originally used iTunes and loaded my personal music to it when I got an iPod Shuffle long ago.  I have now migrated from Windows environments to a MacBook Pro.  My old iTunes account is associated with a dead email address at HP. How do I move it

    I am trying to get an old iTunes account reactivated for my new MacBook Pro.  Originally I had iTunes for my iPod Shuffle and connected to it with a Windows laptop.  I have dumped Windows in favor of Mac OS and now have a MacBook Pro with iTunes installed.  I want to get at the 100s of songs I had out on iTunes but my email address for the old account is no longer active (was a work account and I have since retired).  How do I get a new email address (and ID) assigned into my old account so I can access it and get at my music?

    Unfortunatly, you can't. I had the problem with an iPod classic and looked into it. You could make a new apple account and transfer it to that, but thats it and even that isn't garenteed to work.

    Getting a constant error message... deleted the files stated in the forum and tried to run the LicenceRepair but nothing is happening... ran the .py file in teminal but still getting the error message... My MacBook is running OSX 10.9.3

    Sorry, but Apple's Migration feature doesn't work with Adobe applications.
    1. Use the Cleaner tool to remove what you copied onto your computer:
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    2. Install CS4 from your original install discs, or from your back of the CS4 install files.

  • DB Migration from oracle 8.1 32bit to 64 bit

    Hi,
    We are working on oracle 8.1 on 32 bit on solaris 64bit operating system. We are working on SAP R/3 4.6C.
    We want to migrate our oracle database form 32 bit to 64 bit.
    If anyone can help me with some documentation, it would be helpful. Please send to my mail id [email protected]
    Also, please suggest some preperatory steps for the same.
    Thanks,
    Sailesh K

    Dear ,
    you are going to upgrade from 8.1.7.3 (32-bit) to 8.1.7.3 (64-bit).  This
    applies if you are running Java inside the database.
    1)  Shutdown your 32-bit 8.1.7.3 database.  Shutdown the listener.
    2)  Take a cold backup of this database.
    3)  Install Oracle RDBMS 8.1.7.0 (64-bit)
    4)  Apply patchset 8.1.7.3 (64-bit) to this oracle home.
    5)  Copy your init.ora from the 32-bit home to the 64-bit home.
    6)  Edit the init.ora of the 64-bit ORACLE_HOME so that the following
        parameters are set as follows:
        aq_tm_processes = 0
        job_queue_processes = 0
        systemtrig_enabled = FALSE
        db_block_buffers= (at least 2000)
        shared_pool_size= (at least 150MB)
        java_pool_size= (at least 20MB)
    7)  sqlplus internal or sys
        startup restrict your 8.1.7.3 database using the ORACLE HOME of
        8.1.7.3(64-bit).
    8)  delete from duc$ where pack='JIS$INTERCEPTOR$' and proc='USER_DROPPED';
        commit;
        @?/rdbms/admin/utlip.sql
    9)  Go to Metalink, select Patches, and put in 1994933 for the 'Patch Number'.
        It will come up with a patch saying that it is for HP, but it is actually
        generic for Oracle on all platforms.
        After downloading the patch, extract it and keep track of where you put
        the rmsro.sql and invalidate.sql files.
    10) Now run the following, again from sql*plus connected as internal or sys:
        SQL> @?/javavm/install/initjvmaux.sql
        SQL> @<directory where you placed the files from step 9>/rmsro.sql
        SQL> call rmsro.run();
        SQL> @<directory where you placed the files from step 9>/invalidate.sql
    11) shutdown normal the database
    12) If you are following this procedure because you are converting word size
        from 8.1.7.3 32-bit to 8.1.7.3 64-bit *ON SOLARIS*, then you also need
        to apply another fix.
        Go to Metalink, select Patches, and put in 2209569 for the 'Patch Number'.
        After downloading the patch, extract it and put the classes.bin file from
        the downloaded patch into $ORACLE_HOME/javavm/admin.  This will replace the
        classes.bin file which is already there.
    13) Startup restrict your 64-bit 8.1.7.3 database
    14) Sql*plus internal or sys and type
        SQL> create or replace java system
          2  /
    15) Shutdown the database
    16) Startup restrict the database, connect as internal or sys and run
        SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql;
        -- To check on the progress of utlrp.sql, you can open a second sql
           prompt and do a select count(*) from dba_objects where status!='VALID';
           This count should keep decreasing as the script progresses to
           revalidate all the objects.
        -- If you get an ORA-29554 unhandled Java out of memory condition error,
           simply rerun utlrp.sql again and it will pick up where it left off.
    17) Shutdown the database
        (Note: you may get an ORA-600 [729] error, which can be ignored.
        If that is the case, simply do a shutdown abort before continuing)
    18) Change the SYSTEMTRIG_ENABLED parameter in your init.ora as follows.
        SYSTEMTRIG_ENABLED =TRUE
    19) Startup restrict, connect as internal or sys and run:
        SQL> insert into duc$ (owner, pack, proc, field1, operation#, seq)
             values ('SYS','JIS$INTERCEPTOR$','USER_DROPPED',0,1,1);
        SQL> commit;
    20) shutdown the database
    21) Modify the database startup parameters JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES and
        AQ_TM_PROCESSES (and shared_pool_size/java_pool_size/db_block_buffers if
        you modified them earlier) back to their original values.
    22) restart the database
    23) check that you are able to startup & shutdown normally the database
        without hanging anywhere.

    Now i need to migrate to the new hardware with different hardware,windows version,Oracle Version and new disks as well.
    Migration PLan:
    1- install 32-bit enteprise edition 10gR2 on existing system and migrate RAC from 10gR1 Standard Edition to 10gR2 Enterprise Edition first.
    2- how should i de-attach datafiles in ASM so that i can take them to new machine. attach them and run rest of the migration steps. (in a non-asm environment i can just copy the datafiles using network to the new machine)
    3- once the diskgroup/datafile are available on new hardware i can run the scripts to change wordsize.
    please advise how step2 can be done.
    do i need to take care of the 2 rac-nodes or just do all the migration using one node?
    thanks.

    Hi;
    1- Installl Redhat Enterprose Linux 5 64 bit ( need to confirm the 5.x version ) as the current DB 10.2.0.5 will not certified for RHEL6Correct only 11.2.0.3 db version is certified with RHEL6.
    In oracle certification I can see the certified 64 bit RHEL OS for 10.2.0.5 is RHEL5 ("Oracle Database 10.2.0.5.0 is certified on Linux x86-64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5"). Please let me know the last supported version in RHEL5 which I can go for. I could not find anything about it. I am thinking, I can go for RHEL 5.5 and in the same OS can I upgrade DB 10.2.0.5 to version 11.2.0.3 after the migration.?The latest version is 5.8 and you can download it from e-delivery.

  • What's the best way to migrate from Macbook to Macbook Pro with renting?

    Having trouble migrating from old Macbook to new Macbook Pro with Retina Display.  It seems I skipped some steps and it looked like it was working over wifi but there were password problems I didn't find out until I quit the process after about 5 hours.  How long should it take over wireless?  Should I skip that altogether?
