Moving apps from old to new

I am planning to get the new Mac air, but i am  wondering wither i could move my applications from my old mac book pro  to the new mac air or not ? These applications are iwork, Microsoft office 2011 and smilers.

It's easy to migrate!
Here's an article called "How to use migration assistant to transfer files from another Mac":

I know iWork '09 amd Microsoft Office 2011 (when updated to their latest versions) will work on your new MacBook Air.  I'm not familiar with smilers.
Enjoy your new machine!

  • I bought a new MacBookPro moved everything from old MacBookPro, new machine runs 10.6.7 - but iPhoto won't 'upgrade' the library - just hangs up supposedly while writing new library. help. thanks.

    How did you "move everything" over?
    Migration assistance does not handle the iPhoto library well sometimes - the best way is to drag the bad iphoto library from the pictures folder on the new system to the desktop, connect the two systems together (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old system to the pictures folder of the new system and launch iPhoto on the new system - it will open and convert the iPhoto library as necessary and you will be fine - once you test the iPhoto library you can delete the one on the desktop

  • Moving apps from old citrus to new Phone

    Your apps are all connected to your Gmail account.  Once you sign in they are supposed to re-install automatically on the new phone (though that doesn't always happen).  If it doesn't happen, you have two options, you can either access the Play Store on your computer here: https://play.google.com/store and click on My Android Apps (top right), then go through them and click install on each one (make sure your new phone is signed into your Gmail account, and open the Play Store on your phone at least once) and they will be pushed to your phone.  Or, you can open the Play Store, then press menu>my apps, then swipe to the right.  This will give you a list of every app you have ever installed, and you can pick which ones to re-install.  I find the computer method to be easier, but hopefully they get pushed to your phone automagically.

  • How to download existing apps from old to new phone?

    how does one download existing apps to new phone from old? please help.

    How did the apps get on your old iPhone?
    They get on your new iPhone in the same way.
    All apps on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the apps to your new iPhone via the iTunes sync process.

  • Help: Moving contacts from old to new account

    how can l move contacts from old account to new

    Hello,
    This greying-out of your iPod's songs are due to what setting you are on in iTunes.
    Go to "Edit -> Preferences -> iPod". Under the "music" tab, there will be three selectinos of options:
    Automatically update ALL songs
    Automatically updater SELECTED songs
    Manually manage songs
    From your description of this issue, you are on one of the "automatic" settings. To un-grey your iPod's songs in iTunes, change that setting to "manually manage music" instead of automatic".
    If any post is helpful or solves your issue, please mark it that way, this makes it clearer to other users what solved your issue, and encourages others to help each other on here. Thank You!
    I hope this answers the question,

  • Moving apps from old machine to new Mac

    My current MacBook belongs to my employer and I must return it. My new employer will purchase a new Mac for me. I will zero out the drive before I hand in the old machine, but what happens to the apps I have on my current machine? Obviously I don't want to have to purchase them again.
    1. Will the apps automatically migrate to my new Mac based on my Apple ID?
    2. What steps must I take to re-install when the time comes?
    Thanks in advance for your replies!

    A lot depends on the individual apps...some will be in the app store under Purchases and can be downloaded again.  Some may not run with the new operating system, if they are legacy apps that required Rosetta, i.e., those that ran under Snow Leopard and older versions of Mac OS X.  Those that ran on Lion should be ok.
    To re-download you will have to login to the Mac App Store with the same AppleID and password as you used to purchase the apps.  They are tied to the AppleID.
    You might want to get an external hard drive and just clone the current internal drive so you have a good, bootable backup copy you can then use to migrate to the new machine.  That would be the safest way to ensure the apps are available to you.

  • 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.

    I have apps from old work account that I can't remember the password to. On my personal phone those apps keep showing up but I can't update them because I can't remember the password. How can I delete them and download on my new account?

    Tap and hold an app until they all start jiggling and an X appears in the icon's top left corner. One by one tap the X to delete the app. when they are all gone you are free to buy them again with your own account.

  • How do you transfer my itunes ,music, apps,from old PC to a new PC

    How do you transfer my old itunes account music,apps from old PC to a new Pc?

    These are two possible approaches that should work to move the existing library to the new laptop.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    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 are reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your library or a backup of it then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
