Migrating Logic and all plug ins from old mac to new mac

Hi,
I understand Migration Assistant will bring over all my old files from my Macbook Pro to my new Mac Pro.  My question is, I have Logic Pro 7 and authorization key (USB), my new Mac Pro has Logic Pro 9, can I use all my old music files by just using Migration Assistant?  What about registration or authorization?  What about my 3rd Party Plug ins?  Do I have to re install all of them, or will they come over as well through the Migration?  Anyone with any experience actually doing a similiar migration to mine, all advice or tips would rock.

some 3rd party plug ins you will have to reauthorize and it can be quite a pain but it does work. im not sure if your old logic files will work though

    Received a new mac for my daughter.  How do you get all the information from old mac?

    Your best bet, by far, is to use Setup Assistant when your shiny new Mac first starts up (not Migration Assistant later).

  • Third Party Plug Ins from old computer?

    Before I ask my next question, I just want to thank everyone out there that take the time to help others on this board.
    I have a non bootable drive from my old computer (just died last week, power supply) and I also have it's contents backed up on an external drive. I have so many third party plug ins for my iMovie on my old G5, but how can I get them on my new computer? Slick was nice enough to re-email me everything I have purchased through them. One Company's plug ins I used most is no longer in business. Do I have to kiss it goodbye or can I still get it into my new Pro Mac?
    Thanks, Beth

    As long as you have a working drive, whether FireWire or something else, why not just connect it to your Mac Pro?
    As to whether they will work, or cause trouble, that would have to be updated to Universal Binary or to work with current iMovie would be another matter and probably happen anyway.
    Importing or migrating old powerppc applications and support files often cause problems and can be a "monkey wrench" effect. Reinstall is always best.
    Going forward, always keep originals, burn to CD/DVD all your downloads and software purchases, even copies of your CDs.
    If you have a list, or Google even might be able to resolve this.
    The fact it isn't bootable you should be able to copy or recover files. You just don't want to use Migration Assistant for applications, even if it sees the drives and could.

  • Stop all plug-ins from updating for enterprise support

    We want to control the flash, java, and other plug in versions for our enterprise and do not want it automatically updated by Firefox. How can I stop firefox from trying to update?
    This would include Firefox updates. We will update globally when we are ready and after we have tested with our production applications.

    What does the update window look like? This is the official plugin update site:
    https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/
    Is that it, or something else?
    What you're seeing may be generated by an add-on. Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized add-ons on these two tabs:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Plugins category<br>
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    If you would like comments on whether any of your extensions look untrustworthy, you can extract a list from the Troubleshooting Information page. Either:
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the upper left corner is a button to "Copy text to clipboard". When pasting into a reply, you'll see a lot of preference information below the extensions list. You can delete that lower part if you don't want comments on those.

  • Transfer iTunes Library and iPhone Sync data from old iMac to new Macbook Pro

    Hi,
    I bought a macbook pro in September last year, previous to this I had an iMac. This has all my music and iTunes stored on it.
    Is there a way to transfer my iTunes over to my new Macbook Pro and sync my iPhone as if my phone thinks it's the same computer, so I don't have to restore my phone or set it up as a new one.
    Thanks.

    Yes.
    Simply copy the entire /Music/iTunes folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.

  • How to copy all the data from old computer to new computer (server)

    Dear all,
    As I want to upgrade the server from old computer to a new one.
    I want to ask how and easy way to copy all of table, sequence, ......data from existing old computer to new computer.
    The old server is window 2000 Server with oracle 10g
    The new server may window 2003 Server with oracle 10g
    Thanks a lot
    Francis SZE

    As far as I can see you are copying from db10g for windows to another host on the same platform and same OS, so a simple cold backup taken from the source database can be restored at the target host. You must first make sure the configuration files and service be created prior to performing the database startup procedure at the target host. You may also as suggested, perform an rman duplication task

  • How do I transfer ALL partitioned drives from old mbp to new, with ethernet / migrate assistant, aside from only main mac HD partition?

    Hi there
    Does anyone know how I can migrate ALL of the partitioned drives from my old macbook 17 inch to new macbook 2013?
    Seems like it only transfers the Macintosh HD drive - ie the user account - and I can't figure out how to transfer the rest of the partitioned drives?
    I am using an ethernet cable with thunderbolt adapter. (I don't have a thunderbolt firewire adapter to use a firewire cable in disc target mode - hoping I can perform the FULL transfer using just the ethernet cable?
    but no additional options for transferring additional drives show up when I use Migrate assistant?
    Thanks

    You can't use Migration Assistant to transfer files to OS X Mountain Lion from Mac OS X Tiger. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4889?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    What you have to do is to connect both Macs with FireWire, put the old one in Target Disk mode (hold the T key while the Mac mini is starting) and use Finder to restore the data you need manually. Another option is to transfer your files over the network > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1549

  • HT4527 I want to move all my iTunes from old PC to new PC but Home Sharing on both and it works.  At Step 11, I clicked Home Sharing Import button doesn't work.

    Help!  I want to move all my iTunes music, podcasts, etc. from an old PC to a new PC. I set up Home Sharing on both and it works.  I followed the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 to the letter.  At Step 11, I clicked on Home Sharing on my new PC, then Edit > Select All so I could then import everything to the new computer.  No matter what I try, the Import button doesn't work.  There are two buttons on the lower right hand side of the iTunes screen - one for Settings and one for Import.  The Settings button is clickable but the Import button isn't even live.  In other words, I can see it but not click on it.  I have double-checked my firewall and it is not the problem.  How can I get the Import button to work? 

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • Migrating music and all iTunes info from pc to Mac

    I have just purchased my first Mac.. I have been totally unsuccessful migrating any information over.
    I have even selected single folders and 10 hrs later no luck.
    How do i get all of my itunes music,podcasts etc transfered over to my new Mac?
    Help please...

    First, you have to transfert your iTunes file from your PC to your Mac. To do so, you have to go to your music folder on your PC and locate the "iTunes" folder. Copy it to an external hardrive. Then, copy this folder on your Mac into the Music folder.
    Now maintain the alt button on your Mac and open iTunes. It will ask you if you want create or locate your iTunes Library. Click on choose library. Select your iTunes folder.
    You will then have all your playlists, music, videos, podcasts back.

  • I followed the instructions to copy and paste ALL profile files from old PowerBook to new MacBook Pro, so why are no bookmarks now shown in Firefox?

    From the page
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recovering-important-data-from-an-old-profile#w_copying-files-between-profile-folders
    After dragging and dropping the profile folder from the old PowerBook to the new MacBook Pro, I followed the copy/paste instructions, apparently successfully, to replace all the files in the latter with all the files in the former -- essentially to transfer my Firefox browser functionality from the old computer to the new. However, on starting Firefox, I have ZERO bookmarks (in other words, Firefox looks like it did when I downloaded and installed it a couple days ago). One note: When I performed the operation, I had used the new version of Firefox almost not at all, yet in the course of copying and pasting I had to permit replacement of HUNDREDS of bookmark files with identical names. How could THIS be?!?

    It is normally best to only restore personal data that you really need (bookmarks, passwords, etc.) and not a full profile folder.
    The xxxx in the name of the JSON backup (bookmarks-####-##-##_xxxx_$$$$.jsonlz4) denotes the number of bookmarks in the file and a file hash ($$$$) is appended to check if it is necessary to save a new backup, so only if there is a different hash because bookmarks were modified then a new backup is created.
    If you remove the newer backups that were created before you restored the backup and only leave the bookmark backups from the saved profile then Firefox should rebuild the bookmarks when you remove all the places files.

    Can you attach a screenshot to clarify what you mean with ''all those hundreds of bookmarks, now residing in the profile folder''?

  • I have an iPhone 4 now and I just got the iPhone 4s so how do I backup all my data from old phone to new?

    I have  the iPhone 4 and just upgraded to iPhone 4s how do I backup my data before I activate my iphone 4s? Please help!!

    iOS devices are designed to be sync'd with a single computer, so thinking of future updates, backups and so forth, yes, it would be best to do it on your computer - the one you normally use for iTunes.
    Note that backing up also does not backup everything in iTunes.  Contacts, for example, will be backed up into whatever contact management program you normally use on your computer (eg. outlook on a Windows PC, contacts on a Mac).
    If you have never backed up your iPhone, now is the opportune time to do so and learn how.  Not having a backup means if anything goes wrong with your phone (or you loose it or it is stolen), you risk losing everything on it.
