Migrating from a Plam T E2 to a 'New' Palm T E2 ?

Ok - working on another plan . . . I have several reconditioned Palm Tungston E2's that I bought off Amazon . . . and am having trouble syncing to the 'new' Palm. The Palms are the exact same hardware - all Tungston E2's.
The instructions on the HP/Palm web site say to install the software that came with the handheld 'because the E2 has code that the handheld needs' or something to that effect. I don't know if that's the 'specific hand held' or the T E2 series. I did it with one unit several months ago and it worked but was a lot of gymnastics.
I tried it again, to migrate to yet a 'newer' handheld and could not get it to work - and nor would my 'current' one sync anymore either - on a Vista PC. However, I hooked the 'current one up via USB to my old XP PC which had at least year-old data left on it and it sync'd beautifully!
Can anyone tell me if I have to re-install the software from the disk - really? OR could I just do a 'Desktop Overwrites Handheld" to the newer handheld? One thing . . . maybe I have to run the disk in order to put the user name on the new hand held. I tried that (on he Vista) & after a couple of times not working the software would not even let me access the 'hardware set up' section to name the new hand held. And the new handheld did not get the user name added to it and it would no longer even connect with the Vista.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I would love to just uninstall everything on the desktop & reinstall Palm Desktop 6.22 from the HP web site & start over . . . & do a hand held overwrites desktop . . but I'm not sure if this will work either.
I guess my real preference at this point would be to run the old Windows XP machine I have so I can use Documents To Go Version 8 (which works with the T E2) and with the Palm Desktop (and of course Pimlical's DateBook 6). But I need to get my user name & data onto the 'new' E2. I have the mose current Palm Desktop aready on this XP machine. Again, I have followed instructions from the HP website to do just this on the Vista . . . but there is something (that I am) missing!
Thanks in advance for help!! Deb

What cable do I need for a full migration from a 2011 MacBook Pro to a new current one-wireless migration way too slow.?

What cable do I need for a full migration from a 2011 MacBook Pro to a new current one-wireless migration way too slow.?

All you need is an Ethernet cable.
Just plug it into both machines. Don't bother with a crossover cable, just a plain old Ethernet cable will do. The Ethernet ports on the Macs are smart and will adjust appropriately.

MIGRATE FROM A POWER PC G5 TO A NEW IMAC - PROGRAMS & FILE - POSSIBLE?

I recall when I migrated from a Windows machine to a MAC years back I was able to move programs & files via (probably at that time) USB.
I want to buy a new IMAC & move everything from a 4 year old Power PC G5 without having to reinstall all programs &/or manually drag & drop files.
Is this posisble?
I do have a LaCie HardDrive & have been using SuperDuper to back up everything since I had problems with ths machine months ago but I do admit I have cut down on this as I have over 700,000 files and the backups take hours & really slow machine down. Plus I notice the LaCie drive turns on even when it is not set up to do a back-up.
But mostly want to know fastest way to get everything form one machine to a new one.
There's software I have downloaded or can't find.
Thanks.

You can use Migration Assistant which will come with your new machine, or you can use an ethernet cable and drag and drop what you need, or you can reverse clone from your SuperDuper backup.

How to migrate from my old MacBook Pro to a new one with less disk space and an external hard drive?

I have just bought a new MacBook Pro and an external hard drive.
Yet I have problems migrating data from my old MacBook Pro (more internal disk space with around 500 GB data) to my new one (internal disk space less than 500 GB).
I have connected all 3 devices but it seems the Migration Assistant does not have an option for us to select to migrate to an external hard drive.
Any other way to do it?
Kindly help me. Thanks.

For your situation, Target disk mode may be the most efficient method:

Migrate from Crystal Report Server XI R2 to new Eclipse RAS SDK Question

Hi,
I am migrating Crystal Report Server XI R2 RAS SDK to Eclipse RAS SDK which seems to be quite easy.
I have the following old code which basicly programmaticly creates a Report from scratch adds a Table and then
populates the Report with a Pojo Collection.
 
Now before I would have : 
 
Table oTable = new Table(); 
oTable.setName("reportTable"); 
pbConnAttributes.putStringValue("QE_DatabaseType", "Java Beans Connectivity"); 
pbConnAttributes.putStringValue(PropertyBagHelper.CONNINFO_DATABASE_DLL, "crdb_javabeans.dll"); 
PropertyBag pbLogonProperties = new PropertyBag(); 
pbLogonProperties.putStringValue("Java Bean Classes", className); 
pbLogonProperties.putStringValue("SSOKEY", ""); 
pbConnAttributes.put("QE_LogonProperties", pbLogonProperties); 
pbConnAttributes.putBooleanValue(PropertyBagHelper.CONNINFO_SSO_ENABLED, false); 
oTable.getConnectionInfo().setKind(ConnectionInfoKind.CRQE); 
oTable.getConnectionInfo().setUserName(""); 
oTable.getConnectionInfo().setPassword(null); 
oTable.getConnectionInfo().setAttributes(pbConnAttributes); 
//following statement throws Exception 
doc.getDatabaseController().addTable(oTable, null); 
 
getDatabaseController().setDataSource(pojoCollection, pojoClass.class,"reportTable", "reportTable");
 
 
Now wenn using the c lient eclipse RAS SDK which pbConnAttributes should I use? 
No matter which ones I choose I get a Bad Driver Exception or Named Exception. 
Can anybody help?

Hi Mikael,
Since you're already on CR Server XI R2, you can use the Upgrade Management Tool to migrate all the content to CR Server 2013.
Anwers to your questions:
1) Yes, the Upgrade Management Tool does support this kind of migration
2) It does seem that the UMT allows you to move all report instances as well as the scheduled jobs over to the new server
3) I've always had issues with Business Views when using Import Wizard however I'm not sure whether they work well with the new UMT. In any case, I always prefer to export the LOVs and BVs from within the Business View Manager to a .xml file and then import them in the higher version of the Server, again, from within the Business View Manager.

Migrating from an OLD G4 Server to a new G5 Server

I have been running Server 10.5.8 on my G4 without a problem for the last year. Now we are upgrading to a new G5 server and was wondering how can I migrate the email accounts from my users.
I know that I have to export all my OD users and import them back in the new machine, setup the DNS (or can I copy these settings?) among other things.
This is our email server using IMAP and I just dont want to lose all my users emails. Is there an easy way of doing it?
TIA!

I did this from xServe G4 -> G5 Mac Pro -> xServe Intel a while back when our G4 died - while we don't run email on it, we do have OD Master, iCal, Wiki etc, and operate in "Simple" mode.
Each time I booted the "old" machine off the 10.5 DVD, and did a disk copy (image restore?) from disk to External drive, then did same on new machine and restored from External drive to server. The last time I did it (to Intel xServe) I had no authentication (corrupt LDAP I think) but an OD restore from a recent OD archive got that back up and running.
Considering it was 3 transitions from old to latest technology, I was pretty impressed it went so smooth...

Cannot use Migration Assistant to migrate from a Time Machine backup to a new Mac.

I have a supposedly valid Time Machine backup for both of the MacBook Pro's we have (had). My wifes is Pro is working but mine died. I am replacing it with a MacBook Air. Following the steps, I tried to Migrate all my Pro files and apps from a TM backup using the Migration Assistant but it stops at 'Looking for source' and never gets past this.
I have confirmed the wife's back up is valid using 'Enter Time Machine'. However, on that same Mac Pro, if I use the Migration Assistant, it does not find the hard drive, once again , getting stuck at 'Looking for source just like on the Mac Air.
I went back to BestBuy where I bought the Air and worked with the Apple Rep. He tried it himself on a Mac Pro they had in the store and got the same results.
We called this into MyApple and after elevating this to the next level, they still cannot explain it.
I have used this feature in the past prior to upgrading to Mavericks so I am wondering if the fault is there?
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Dave

I may have solved this (partly). A search reveal A LOT of peoplel having the same issue. One solution put forward was that the Time Machine backups were not complete. I noticed in mine, non of the backups for a quite a while have no Applications or System files backup. The solution was to do a TM reset. I did that and ran a new backup of the one MacBook Pro that is still working. After it was complete, the backup had the Applications and System data in it. I was able to open the Migration ssistant and it found the drive.
Now I just have to hope that the repair shop can salvage my malfuncitoning MB Pro so I can solve the main issue either by Migrating fromht MB Pro or make a new back up of the MB Pro after TM reset and use that for the migration. Won't till tomorrow (hopefully).

Best way to migrate from Imac 2 GHz core duo to new imac

Am upgrading from a 6 yo iMac running 10.6.8 to the latest and greatest. Old machine still running and fully backed-up via time capsule to an external hard drive. What's best (cleanest) way to transfer. Some of the older software (Microsoft Office X) will not be needed.
Thanks.

Just upgraded from a late 2006 Core2Duo iMac to a 2011 21.5" iMac using migration assistant over Ethernet. Smooth as silk. Don't trust the status bars telling you how much time you have left, they lie. Once you start it, walk away and come back in a few hours, or let it run either overnight or while you're at work so you're not obsessing over it the whole time.
You may need to re-enter license keys, etc, for some software, but I did not. Office 2011, VMWare, etc. all came over fully intact and usable.

HT4889 I just complete a migration from my Mac Book Pro to my new Mac Book Pro but none of the files on my desktop appear anywhere. Suggestions please.

I have just completed a lengthy migration of all my files from an old Mac Book Pro to my new Mac Book Pro and I find that none of my files on my desktop have been transferred. So, I do not have the confidence that all my files have been transferred. What did I do wrong and what can I do to fix this matter. Sugggestions welcome. Thanks

Open the Users folder, drag the migrated home folder to the desktop, provide your administrator password, and retrieve the files from there. If desired, you can then use the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences to delete the migrated account. This can be done in reverse if you only want the migrated account.

Username "staff" conflict when migrating from old 10.4.11 server to new

Our old server (Quicksilver 933) running OSX Server 10.4.11 had a 'catchall' username that my design staff used for production. That username is 'Staff'. It is part of the 'staff' group on the server admin.
When I installed our brand new Mac Mini Server (Snow Leopard server), I connected them together for the 'one time migration'. All the users migrated except the one called 'staff'. It does not show up in the user manager at all; however if I try to create it the system says it already exists.
Suggestions?
Message was edited by: James Jepsen

staff is one of the groups in recent Mac OS X Server releases, and I wouldn't expect it'll copy over.
WGM menu > Preferences > enable the All Records setting if it's not already selected.
Still in WGM, select Accounts > All Records (bulls-eye) > and then Groups on the pop-up selector.
Best to pick something else.

How do I migrate from my old MacBook Air to my new Macbook Air ?

I do have the Thunderbolt display for my old one.

You can connect your two MBA with a Thunderbolt cable and use target disk mode. Connnect the two and restart the old MBA while holding the 'T' key. Then, assuming you've never started your new MBA, start it and follow the process of registering it and eventually Setup Assistant will let you migrate your account(s) and applications.
If you've already started the new computer initiate target disk mode as described and then run Migration Assistant.

How do I migrate from a firewire backup disc to a new iMac?

The drive on my 27 inch iMac (late 2007 model) has stopped working, so I need to get a new iMac. My old iMac has a bootable backup on an external firewire drive. How do I migrate the backup to the iMac, which has no firewire input?

Connect it through a FireWire to Thunderbolt adapter.

Migration from 10.5.8 in PPC to new server on 10.6.x

Hi,
Currently running 10.5.8 server on a ppc Mac. Looking, at moving to 10.6.x which will thus require new hardware.
Problem is the existing server has a valid externally signed SSL cert. for Web and email and is the domain master for the OD.
If this was a desktop I'd boot the existing box up in target mode and then migrate then upgrade, but I get the feeling the cert. and the Open Directory suff is going to really object to that.
Anyone go any thoughts on how easy this is going to be? I'm guessing new cert. will be required, then moving the clients to new mail server......

To start programming, you can use Mac OS X 10.5.8 and an old Xcode version if you don't want to upgrade now. With this, you will get a first look into the OS X and iPhone OS environment.
However, respecting to iOS programming, I recommend you to upgrade to, at least, Mountain Lion if you can. OS X Mountain Lion needs a Late 2008 Aluminum MacBook or an Early 2009 MacBook, so if you haven't got one of them, you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion.
First, buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard# Make a backup of your files, insert the DVD and upgrade. After upgrading, open  > Software Update, and install 10.6.8.
Now, if you want, you can upgrade to Lion, if your computer isn't compatible with Mountain Lion. Lion will allow you to use the most recent Xcode version, so you can have a look at programming for the most recent iOS version, which is really useful because you can learn how to create apps for the new iOS 6 features, and if you are a registered developer, you can get access to iOS 7 beta and prepare your apps
