Migration did not transfer app files
I used Migration to transfer my 10.6.8 apps, files ect to a new iMac with Mavericks.
I must say that the Migration system leaves much to be desired. I have a app (probably more than one) where the shell was transferred but not the files that it contained. The app maker says to go into the app and extract the files . How do I do that?

I suspect they apps might not run under Mavericks.
While your computer might meet the requirements, also check your applications for Mavericks compatibility here: http://roaringapps.com/
Lion and later do not support PowerPC software. They must be Intel native.

I backed up my 3gs to the iCloud and when I synced my 4S, it did not transfer my game histories or my 3rd party app histories. When I look at my iCloud storage, it shows both phones under the same name. Is there a way to merge them together in iCloud? I tried adding the account to my 4S but since they are both named the same, it says I already have that account added! Help!!
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming you have finished with your old backup.....
You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage...... -
I just bought a new iMac and used the Migration Assistant to transfer my files. Initially, all was working, but now a week later, I get the message that the application manager is missing, and I cannot get Photoshop and InDesign to launch. For my personal use, I did not a need to join Creative Cloud. Have you any suggestions for a work-around?
Try to install Adobe application Manager from below link and check

I migrated from a PC to a Mac Book Pro. The contacts transferred over to the Mac along with many contacts that I had deleted sometime ago. Also some contacts did not transfer at all. How can I perform a correct and up to date migration of my contacts?
well no reply from the community. sniff- do i stink!? - probably a little bit. If i have lost all that data then I'm gonna really really pong.
Any ways i have purchased a 1tb usb HDD and have managed to duplicate the dmg file onto it. however still unable to mount the **** thing. so now i have ordered disk warrior which will be in my possession tomorrow.

i have done the update, but any apps that i have downloaded did not transfer. where do i go to get them back on my homescreen?
you need to go to APP STORE, Then click on Purchased and you will see all the program which u can download from iCloud. I hope u made an account otherwise u will need to install everything again. The most important when u install a new iOS is to backup all your files first and then u can proceed installing the new one.

Will someone please help me?
My files, photos, email files, software programs, calendar info, and all information did NOT transfer over to Mavericks (from Mt Lion). How do I get all my stuff to appear when using Mavericks?
My email did transfer over.
Thank you.First click on the Apple > Logout and Log back in or restart the unit see if that solves it. If it doesn't do you have a backup of your system prior to upgrade? Check Disk Utility and see how much space is being used to make sure the drive wasn't somehow erased.

ITunes music files did not transfer afte rebooting OS software
hi there
I had to reboot system 10.3 software- I was happy because I had everything backed up on a Lacie external drive that i had formatted as a bootable disk. So when my iBook came back from the repair shop with a new blank OS and asked me if I wanted to transfer files from another computer, I did, from the Lacie hard drive. Only my iTunes music did not transfer, and so far it seems like I have to import files one by one- I can not figure out how to import the whole lot of music files.
Additionally, all my other files, mostly Word, were imported with the "created on" date all set to 1970, for some reason. That is annoying; any ideas from anyone? Thank you very much

Hello
A couple of years ago, I purchased my first MAC OS X 10.7.5
I transferred my iTunes library from my old PC to the new MAC.
You transferred your library to your Mac a couple of years ago?
Or you have been using the Mac for a couple of years and just now transferred the library?
I followed instructions,

I purchased a new MacBook Pro and when transferring files iphoto did not transfer. I have a question mark in the place of the icon. My pictures are in library but can't properly access iphoto. Thank you
Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff. -

HT201301 Old app did not transfer over to iOS 7
I had the app 1 password for all my passwords & the app did not transfer over. Anyone having issues similar to this? I had to re-download the app to find out that I had to pay the $17.99 for the new version and it can't find any of my info that is important. Any ideas? Thank you!
King is correct, the contract w the studios limits you to a single download. I gather these were never synced to your computer? If you have a backup, they would be there.

I updated os on my iphone and itunes did not transfer my apps, what can i do?
I updated my iphone 4 to IOS 5, in the processs itunes asked me if i wanted to transfer my purchased apps to my iphone, I clicked on transfer, however itunes did not transfer the apps and removed them from my iphone. How can i recover the apps I purchased?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
For device connectivity issues see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, and TS4062: iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi syncing.

I recently re-installed Snow leapod onto my macbook. Previously the system was running snow, I believe I may have visited a corrupt website or something. Anyhow, I backed up all of my information onto disks before reformatting, and the format went well. However, I realized after the fact that some important video footage did not transfer to my DVD-R's that I saved my data too. Is there any possible way I could recover this information? I'm trying to recovery software I found recomended online, but im not sure what the outcome of it will be. I know things are not looking good, but was hoping someone could please help me.
Also, as for what I did. I put the OS disk into my computer, restarted it and ran through the screens to completely reinstall the OS. Then, I had to install my Snow Leapord CD because my origional OS was not the newer SL. Its my own fault, I just didnt think of every file off the top of my head before startign the process. I assumed everything was on the backup disks I had just burned.

I had a computer crash but was able to manually drag over and save all my imovie projects. The corresponding videos did not transfer over during the migration. I have had to manually go in and re-import each of the video clips. Will the manually reimported clips automatically replace the missing files and keep the edits intact?
So for example, a missing file in the project has the first 5 seconds clipped off and some image stabilization. The project says I need to reimport the original source media (File X). I import File X so it is now in the library. Will imovie now recognize File X as the source media and automatically plug it in, complete with the cropped 5 seconds and image stabilization? If it is not automatic, is there a process I need to complete to accomplish this?
Thankyou very much for the help.If you attempt to start a new project and import one of those files does it allow you to simply import them?

IGoogle settings did not transfer over from IE 8 to FF4.
Hmm...
I had an iGoogle page in IE 8, but the settings did not transfer over to a new install of FF 4?
What might be the problem and can stillI migrate those setting to FF 4?
Thanks.
P.S. It worked fine on another system with the same configs. Strange.Playlists are part of the iTunes Library.itl file, so if you just moved the music folder, your playlists would not have transferred. This site might be of help:
