Migration of CS5 from old to new IMac

This is all I get even after re installing from Adobe. Why?
One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing.  Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop.

  • Migration from old to new iMac do you need to use set up on new or go straight to migration?

    Just got a new iMac and going to migrate from my old 2008 iMac, info from Apple Support is a bit confusing but I want to know if it is best to use the "Set Up" on new iMac before migration or go straight into migration.
    Also the support info says to connect both using ethernet as one option (which is my option) and connected to your network, how do you do this as there is only one ethernet port on each machine and if connected together it would not be possible to connect to a network, ie, the internet via my ISP. Suppot says no router etc needed.
    Somewhat confused so if there is anyone out there who has done this I would appreciate their comments.
    Thank you for any help forthcoming.

  • Transferring from old to new iMac computer

    I am buying a new iMac to replace my 4 year old iMac. I want  want to transfer everything from my old iMac to the new one.
    My question is which transfer method is best, Target disk or Time Machine?
    Am not sure of exactly what happens when I connect the TM to the new computer & if this will download everything including apps.
    Looking for pros & cons of each method before I start.

    Bob,
    Please click the link below for a Time Machine tutorial:
    http://www.apple.com/findouthow/mac/#timemachinebasics
    Time Machine works quite well however as with any system it should be checked from time to time to guarantee everything is still working OK. Kind of like checking the oil on your car or double checking the front door is locked at night.
    If you want to learn more about TM then I would also recommend looking over these TM FAQ's put together by Pondini.

  • Problem moving Mail from old to new iMac

    I followed instructions about moving Mail--with all mail folders and old emails intact--from my old PowerPC iMac to my new Intel 3.20 MHz iMac. I copied the folder "Mail" inside my user library and the "plist" file from Preferences onto my thumb drive from the old computer, then uploaded these files onto the new one. I was able to easily replace the "plist" file with the onscreen prompt (Do you want to replace?), but the Mail folder went into the Library folder as a duplicate only. So, I tried to delete the original and unused Mail folder, but everytime I sent to the trash and empty the trash, it magically reappears, so that my old emails don't show up when I open the Mail program. I know the files are there--but how do I make my new iMac recognize them and how do I delete the empty Mail folder that was on the new computer originally to avoid confusion? Thanks for any advice you can give.

    You may need to rename the copy to be simply Mail. This is best done having first removed any Mail folder on the new Mac, but this should work as well.

  • Moved my CS5 from MacBook to new iMac

    Photoshop, Illustrator open OK, but InDesign gets "quit unexpectedly" alert at start up.  I used Migration Assistant to do the move.  Why only InDesign?

    migrating is problematic with adobe products.
    you should uninstall, clean and then properly install -http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

  • Migrating e-mail from old to new machine

    Hi all. I'm trying to get the old e-mails off my old G3 running OS 9.0.4 and onto my new G5 running 10.4.9. How would I get the inbox and sent folders into the Safari Mail program ?
    I have a Crossover Ethernet Cable if that's of use.
    Please try to keep your answers non-technical and simple.
    Philip

    Philip,
    The available options have pretty well been laid out for you, and there aren't any others that come to mind. The mailboxes that most versions of Netscape email created are readable by Thunderbird, because the Mozilla project and Netscape have many common origins. Mail could probably import the old mailboxes as type Netscape/Mozilla, but first you must figure out a way to transfer the data. You need to go to other forums in these Apple Discussions for older systems and older hardware to find out what you can use to connect either an external hard or or external CD burner to the old G3, or to see if you can connect via Firewire, or if you can network between your new Mac and the old G3.
    No answer specific to email will go beyond that already offered in this topic, but this forum is not the place to get general information about the transfer of data between the G3 running OS9 and the G5 running Tiger. If you do not feel technically capable of sorting the latter out, then none of us here can provide anything more useful for email, per se, and you need to seek expert help that can come to your home or office where these computers are located.

  • Migration assistant stalled ( 110 hours, after 30  hours ). How else can I transfer my data from PC to new iMac without wireless migration assistant?

    i am a new mac user
    i have a new imac
    was trying to transfer data from old pc to imac using migration assistant ( wirelessly )
    i had done it once already, but i noticed that although it took about 8 hours, very little data from the c drive was actually transferred ( i had not noticed i had to designated folders to copy )
    so i did it again, targetting folders on the D drive and my external hard drive F - lots of data ( about 300 GB )
    after an hour i noticed that the estimated time for completion was 88 hours ! i did let it run for about 30 hours anyway and hoped for the best ...
    this morning when i woke up the time remaining was estimated at 42 hours, but then it suddenly jumped to 110 hours !!!
    when i came home 8 hours later, it was still at 110 hours, so i stopped it - i assumed it had crashed ...
    i got a message that one folder on my pc might have been lost - corrupted
    incredibly, after more than 30 hours, no data had actually been transferred to my new mac !!!!
    in any case, i see now that migration assistant created a new user account anyway, which i do not want
    SO
    how can i transfer data from my pc laptop to my new imac, preferrably with a direct cable connection as opposed to wireless, directly into my main account
    and i how can i delete the other account migration assistant created in the initial "successful" transfer
    thanks
    chris

    Ah yes, forget the Firewire cable then, use ethernet.

  • Can't migrate from G4 to new iMac

    I just brought home my new iMac today and can't transfer my info from my G4. It finds the firewire, but on the screen that calculates the size of the volumes to transfer it only finds the network. The users, applications and file sizes just "calculate", it just hangs and does nothing. I've waiting over 20 minutes for something to change and nothing does.
    What am I not doing to get the info from old to new?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    You can get better help if you post everything about your two computers: system, ram, devices connected etc.
    The way you connected both computers.
    Just in case you don't know, for me it has worked this way.
    Permissions repaired in the old Mac
    Both connected via firewire - the iMac first - the old one started holding down "T" key - in Utilities Folder "Migration Assistant" will guide you.
    Hopefully this can help you

  • Migration from old to new MacBook Pro

    Old machine uses Leopard. New machine uses Snow Leopard. If I use migration assistant from old to new, will new machine end up with Leopard instead of retaining Snow Leopard?

    Hi guys, sorry to bug in. I searched on the different discussions available and found yours to be closest to my query.
    I hope you don't me popping a few questions regarding Migration Assistant.
    I have had a MacBook Air for about 2 years now, and recently bought a MacBook Pro.
    I performed a Migration of the content in MBA to MBP and it was successful as far as content transfer is concerned.
    Now I have the database from the MBA in the new MBP, but none of the user setting or Applications were "installed". I tried to open "Applications", "Movies" folders, but I was not allowed to open them.
    Is it possible to migrate the content and use as if it was in MBA? Or do I have to download and reinstall the various programs/applications I had in MBA again? (eg Handbrake, VM Fusion, etc)?
    Much appreciated for your time & feedback.
    Tony

  • I MIGRATED MUSIC AND PHOTOS FROM PC TO NEW IMAC VIA ETHERNET/MIGRATION ASSISTANT. IT SAID that job was completed but i cannot find anyof my stuff. where is it?

    i cannot find music, photos or documents after migrating from pc to new imac. both computers said transfer was successful but i cannot find anything. where is it?

    It went to a new user Account.
    Go to: Apple > System Preferences > Users & Groups to see the new Account.
    For more info, see > About Windows Migration Assistant
    Notes
    This process will create a new user account on your Mac that contains the data migrated from the Windows PC.  It will not merge the information with any existing user accounts on your Mac.
    This article only applies to migrating from a Windows-based PC to a Mac. For assistance with performing a migration from one Mac to another, please see How to use Migration Assistant to transfer files from another Mac.
    Windows-specific file types, such as .exe files, are not transferred.
    You will need to enter your password when you first use an account, such as when you use your transferred email account in the Mail application for the first time.

  • How do I migrate my albums from old mac to my new macbook?

    How do I migrate my albums from old mac to my new macbook? The photos are already migrated, but I've lost all the old groupings in the albums and I don't want to manually re-group the thousands of photos!!!

    I was using version 6.0.6 of iPhoto.
    My issue is that I already have sorted the photos into Albums - about 50 of them. And now on my new computer I can't see any of the albums I had sorted them into, and I don't want to have to recreate all those Albums!  That was one of the primary reasons I stuck with Apple when I upgraded. Had I known it wouldn't bring the albums over, I probably wouldn't have bought another apple.
    Is there any way to get all the work I've already done in organising my photos onto my new computer? Thanks for your help.

    thanks for your help. You may right that Adobe Photoshop is not a tidy programm. But it is the only of my applications that make problems after using the MA. Anf for what the MA ist made for?
    But i still have a question. Is this cc-cleaner as well working for Photoshop Elements 8.0? I tried the link but at the second step "Uninstall Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications" I do not find at the Application folder the Utitily folder.
    Thanks

    How did you migrate? Unless you cloned over a complete system you just made a bunch more trouble for yourself. You can never, never migrate PSE with the migration assistant. PSE is not a tidy package app in accordance with the apple developer guidelines. It strews stuff all over your hard drive and puts things in places the MA isn't programmed to look. Now you will have a lot of manual cleaning up to do. You must always reinstall PSE from scratch.
    First download and run this:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation -problems.html
    Then you can manually remove the bits that got copied over. You can't use spotlight to help with this; it's programmed to ignore these kinds of files. In addition to what's in the applications folder, you will need to go to the library at the top level of your hard drive>Application Support>Adobe and remove anything in there, as well as your username>library>preferences. Then you can reinstall from your original media.
