Move Logic from MacBook to iMac

Hi, i recently moved from my old macbook to the new imac and i would like to know how to move Logic from one pc to the other.
I checked in the app store but only the new Pro x is available and i don't have anything in the purchased area.
Someone can help me?
Paolo

Paolo,
Just to clarify,
You will have to install Logic Pro 9 from the DVDs you have as part of Logic Studio 2.0 (It is the fiull version yes? If not remember you will also need your previous Logic Pro 8 serial.. as well as the Logic 9 upgrade serial to install)
Once you have installed Logic Studio via DVD you must update it via  OS X's update utility as Logic will not work correctly until you do so..
So, yes, grab an external DVD drive... and use that.
You could use other methods but the reality is, installing from scratch is the only real way to avoid all kinds of issues that using such things as restoring from Time Machine backups or using the Migration Assistant, typically cause.
As you have a new Mac.. might as well install it the right way giving you a good clean fresh start

  • How to move music from MacBook to iMac?

    I have used another software program to transfer music on cassette tapes to digital files. Because it is a lengthy process, I used my Intel MacBook Pro to do it. The music is now in iTunes on the MacBook, and I want to ADD the songs to the iTunes music already on my G5 Power PC.
    Can someone explain, in layman’s terms, how I can do this? I’ve seen topics on similar topics, but I’ve overwhelmed by the answers!

    Well, the problem is solved.
    The wonderful tech guys at Compucraft helped me out. I consolidated my libraries on the G5, and everything seems to be working fine. The only glitch is that I cannot access the 6 songs I tried to play before consolidating my libraries. Oh well, small price to pay.
    Thanks Niel for your help. I'm now rocking out to "The Outfield: Play Deep"! I'm marking this solved.

  • How do you move iMovies from MacBook Pro to iMac?

    How do you move iMovies from MacBook Pro to iMac?  I started some projects on my MacBook Pro but would rather have the larger working area provided on the iMac large 27 inch screen. 

    Hi there rainyri!
    The easiest way for you to do this is to transfer the information to an external drive as an intermediary, then transfer the information from your drive to the internal drive on your iMac. We have an article that explains the steps for doing this, and it can be found here:

  • When I transferred my iPhoto from macbook to iMac it created double events for each, how do I correct this?

    When I transferred my iPhoto from macbook to iMac it created double events for each, how do I correct this?

    How did you do it?
    Here's what should work:
    To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
    Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
    But however you do choose to link the two machines...
    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

  • What's the best way to move files from my 2012 iMac to my 2014 MBP?

    What’s a good way to move files from my 2012 iMac to my MBP?
    I prefer to do graphic work on my 21-inch iMac (2012 version). But when I travel I need to copy files to my 2014 MBP. I learned that my 2012 iMac is too old for use of AirDrop, so I’m copying and moving files with a flash drive. That seems slow and clumsy. Is there a better way?

    Target Disk Mode would provide a direct connection between the two Macs:

  • How to transfer a 8GB .MOV file from MacBook Air (late 2013) via external HD (Samsung S2 Portable) to a Dell laptop ?

    Hi guys and galls,
    How can I transfer a 8GB .MOV file from MacBook Air (mid 2013) via external HD (Samsung S2 Portable) to a Dell laptop ? The mentioned file currently will not let me transfer it to my ext HD. I want to upload it afterwards to a Dell laptop with Windows software installed.
    Reformatting the drive doesn't seem to be the sollution, since this will erase all the data stored on the ext HD, and it will only allow me to use the drive with either Apple or Microsoft equipment.
    Please HELP, running out of options here... Thnx, "Apple-Dummy"

    How can I tell whether my External HD is formatted NTFS?
    Attach the HDD to your MBP.  Click on the icon on the desktop COMMAND+I. It will produce a display such as this and look what it says by FORMAT.
    How do I format my External HD: FAT or ExFAT?
    Do this on a PC.  You will have to use the Windows equivalent of Disk Utility.  I am not a Windows user so I cannot give you detailed information regarding this.  I have seen on these forums that there are at times compatibility problems if formatted on a Mac.
    Which one is preferred, FAT or ExFAT? And why?
    Use ExFAT.  FAT has a file size limitation of 4 GB.

  • I transferred files and photos from MacBook to iMac via ethernet cable and using migration assistant. However every time I transferred, it created a separate user and it transferred all files and photos again and again. So now I have 3 users accounts ?

    I transferred files and photos from MacBook to iMac via ethernet cable and using migration assistant. However every time I transferred, it created a separate user and it transferred all files and photos again and again. So now I have 3 users accounts with all files and photos saved 3 times on same iMac !! Any idea how to avoid this ?

    Yes, you ran into a very understandable problem.
    When you use Migration Assistant, it cannot over-write the account that you happen to be using at the time. Upon migrating accounts, it will tell you that it is going to create a new one, but that message is easy to miss.
    If you have three identical accounts, log in to the account you want to keep, and delete the redundant ones in System Preferences > Users & Groups.
    Now that you know, the easiest way to migrate accounts is to use Setup Assistant when you first get a new Mac. That eliminates any possibility for this to occur, but most people are so eager to use their new Mac that they elect to migrate later.
    That's OK too, but in that case you would want to create a temporary account whose sole purpose is to run Migration Assistant so that you may migrate your old one with an identical name. Be sure to give the new account Administrator privileges. When that finishes you would log in to the newly migrated account, and delete the temporary account.

  • How do I transfer files from macbook to iMac?

    can I transfer filels directly from macbook to imac or do I have to do it through dropbox or bluetooth?

    Easiest and quickest way is to connect the two machines with an ethernet wire...they will automatically network with each other.
    The hard drive of the MacBook should appear on the desktop of the iMac, open it, find the files you want to transfer and drag-and-drop to the appropriate folder of the iMac.

  • How do I transfer photos from macbook to imac?

    How do I transfer photos from macbook to imac?

    There are serveral ways.  Depending on how many there are you can email them to yourself.  You could also put them on a flash drive and download them onto your iMac.  Another way could be to Airdrop them (I suggest putting them all in a folder or compressing them to a .zip if you do this) from one to another.  Those would be the most simple ways to do it.

  • My Photoshop CS6 Extended did not transfer properly from Macbook to iMac. I am being asked to 'buy' it.

    My Photoshop CS6 Extended did not transfer properly from Macbook to iMac. It was treated as a trial and now I am being asked to 'buy' it.

    I have run into this before. Click on "license this product" on the Trial countdown screen.
    Sign in if asked with your Adobe ID/Password  The Cloud is an option for those who do not have a serial number license. It isn't mandatory.
    Then look for the "I have a serial number" option.
    And enter it from there and activate. Your trial should convert to Photoshop Standard or Extended depending on the serial number.
    Of course migrating or restoring from Time Machine does break licensing.
    So aside from uninstall, run the Cleaner tool Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    and use Disk Utility to verify your disk and run a "Repair Permissions" before install.

  • Access denied when I move files from MacBook to desktop

    When move files from my MacBook Pro to my G5 desktop, I can't open them. I get an "access denied" message. I can fix the problem by going to "info" and changing the access, but how can I fix this so it doesn't happen at all? I don't want to have the hassle of resetting the access for each file every time I swap files back and forth between the laptop and desktop.

    Ask and you will receive:
    You can do the same thing in terminal using the chmod command, but it requires a bit more of a learning curve.
    Leo server has a Built in GUI that allows you to do the same thing as Sandbox, I really feel Apple should have included something similar in the consumer version of Leo, since we are forced to deal with ACL's in Leo whether we want to or not. They are turned on by default and can only be turned off temporarily (fsaclctl command) as they will resume automatically at the next reboot.
    Of course you must master the basics before attempting
    ACL's from the command line.
    Here are some links to some Leo ACL and command line documents:

  • Transfering Aperture Files from MacBook to iMac

    I have Aperture on both a MacBook and iMac. I want to transfer photos, as aperture projects, from my MacBook onto my iMac. I can't seem to make this happen. Currently, I connect the 2 computers, use the MacBook as an external drive and drag the projects onto the iMac desktop and then import them from the desltop into Aperture. Very, very slow. Any suggestions on how to send Aperture projects on the MacBook straight into Aperture (as projects) on the iMac. Thanks very much for any advice. Anthony
    iMac5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    There is a very big difference in speed depending on whether you transfer projects with referenced images, or managed images.
    Saving/exporting projects with referenced files is really fast! (but of course you need to reconnect the master files if you haven't stored them on an external drive while importing).
    I could be wrong but I believe almost everyone here waits for a solution to synchronize a laptop and desktop seamlessly. since most user seem to have adopted the paradigm "laptop: use while/after photoshoot" --> "desktop: edit and adjust"....
    my temporary solution is to use the same external disk in most cases for masters, and export import "approjects". It's tricky, but works as a temporary compromise.
