Moving OS X & all applications & documents to a bigger HDD

I have OS X, my applications & most of my data files on a 30GB drive (the original drive tha shipped with my Mac). This is now full.
I also have a 120GB drive which I added for video work.
I would like to move OS X & apps to the bigger drive without reinstalling everything, running updates etc...
I don't care about the content on the 120GB drive & can reformat it.
Will Carbon Copy Cloner do the trick?
Will this defrag and/or optimise in the process?
Do I need to set the jumpers on the drives? (currently the small drive is the master & the large one the slave)
Is there any advantage in splitting the large drive onto 2 or more partitions?
Any help would be appreciated in case (before) I trash my system!
Thanks for your help
John

If you plan to keep both drives installed, then there is no need to change jumpers on the drives. However, if you remove the smaller drive then you will need to change the jumper on the larger drive to MASTER.
The easiest way to do what you want is to use the Restore option of Disk Utility. Do the following:
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the startup volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Drag the startup volume to the Source entry field.
5. Select the backup volume from the leftside list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Check the box to Erase Destination (this is optional but highly recommended.)
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
There are no innate advantages to partitioning the drive.
There is no need to defrag with Panther or Tiger. They defrag on the fly all files less than 20 MBs in size.

  • Business Object linked to application document

    hi All,
    Is there any standard tcode or way to find out a given business object is linked to what all application documents?
    Like for example i would like to know BO FIPP is linked or can be used for what all documents or tcodes??
    How can find out??
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Raj

    Hello Raj,
    this is indeed a sad thing, not having a control table that links transaction codes to objects or classes. The GOS-Integration (Generic Object Services) are implemented within each transaction and usually the business object types used there are hard coded.
    You can have a look at the where-used-list of ABAP class CL_GOS_MANAGER. You'll find an example here, include LMEORF1M at form routine  bus2053_object_publish.  There  you'll see the common way of how objects are used/published.
    Furthermore, the event creation/handling is also usually hard coded.
    Not all transactions that make use of business objects, also use the GOS. So you'll always get a part of this.
    You can also have a look at the where-used-list of Business Object Interface IFGOS.
    Best wishes

  • Will reinstalling Lion via the Lion recovery partition cause you to loose all of your applications, documents, etc or does it just replace the Lion operating system and leave everything else untouched?

    Will reinstalling Lion via the Lion recovery partition cause you to loose all of your applications, documents, etc or does it just replace the Lion operating system and leave everything else untouched?

    The latter. I cant tell you how many times I've reinstalled lion! all your apps will be fine!
    Things that will change are system graphics if you altered them with something like candybar or did it manually.
    Having said that, you should always backup your stuff with time machine incase something does happen.
    This is a very important step which will insure the safety of your files while doing things like updating or installing the OS.
    Please exercise caution when doing things with a Hard Drive.

  • Lost all the documents for all 3 applications in the iPad, what can I do to get them back?

    After latest update, all the documents got lost, have no backup, what can I do and why this happen?

    Along with checking to see if the documents are still there in the browser, sounds like maybe iCloud turned off on the iPad. You can check in Settings.
    Go to Settings.
    On the left hand side, go to iCloud and make sure it is on and the "Document & Data" are ON.
    Then on the left hand side go to Pages and make sure "Use iCloud" is ON.
    Do the same for Numbers and Keynote.
    Maybe a long shot, but worth checking.

  • When I open Pages, it opens all previous documents. But I cannot close them:if I try, the program crashes

    Hello everyone.
    Since middle february, Pages has not been working properly.
    When I start the program, it opens by default a blank page. That was fine until recently. I would simply close it and open my desired document. But now I cannot close the blank document: if I do it, the program crashes.
    I have bypassed the problem by simply minimizing the blank one and going along with my own documents... Unfortunately now the problem has increased, as it will not close any document.
    Therefore when I start the program, it will re-open all the documents and it will crash all the time I try to close them.
    Also, It will not let me save them or turn themm to PDF.
    What can I do ?
    I have also removed the previous software and I bought (again) Pages on the App Store last week... results: NONE!! it still won't work.
    HEEEELLLPPPPP
    thank you

    Hello
    I was warned of your problem by Jerrold.
    As I'm really besy this evening, I didn't read carefully the available message.
    What you get is a Lion's feature named "Resume".
    If you dislike me (as I do but I don't feel useful to rant against it) there are several ways to get rid of it.
    (1) In theory, it's sufficient to uncheck a box in the General System PrefPane.
    I wrote « in theory » because, at least in the French version this feature is broken.
    (2) Some third party tools are delivered to rule the feature's behavior for each application.
    Here are two free ones :
    Lion Tweaks ( http://ifredrik.com/applications/ )
    TinkerTool ( http://www.bresink.com/osx/TinkerTool.html )
    (3) As none of them apply on my French System, I designed a home made brute force tool.

    Save this script as as Script and store it in the folder :
    <startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:
    On my machine, thanks to FastScripts, I attached a shortcut to this script.
    So, when I press cmd +option + ctrl + Q I get this dialog :
    On an English System, the buttons are :
    Cancel, Restart, Shutdown.
    When we trigger the last two, the folder storing the dats required by the system to apply « Resume » is emptied so when we restart the machine no extraneous window is opened.
    I didn't described the way to reach the folder named Scripts.
    I'm sur that Jerrold will do that with a better English.

  • How do I keep all my documents in iBooks that were purchased from on line store not at the iTunes Store. (Ver 7 has screwed up iBooks and it no longer works)

    I have hundreds of 3rd party purchased lists and legal documents I keep in Ibooks. Since upgrading to version
    7 iBooks only opens for a few seconds then closes any open document and kicks me all the way out of iBooks
    How do I keep these and reload ibooks ? I am 500 miles from my main PC and need thee forms now.

    The iPad is not new. It is almost 2 yrs old. Many of the documents are legal documents, legal journals text books etc that have a 30 day limit on downloads and that time period has expired. Your post suggested closing all applications and forcing a power down. That I have done several times. I have not restored the software as that would require deleting the contents. Not all the files are backed up and the ones that are, reside on my personal laptop that is states away and will be for at least a week and I need the data now.

    Hi Kunwar,
    first check, Have you created message for all the documents and what is the dispatch time in the message. You have to select option no. 3 ( send with application own transaction) for output type WE03.
    SPRO >> Materials Management >> Inventory Management & Physical Inventory >> Output Determination >> Maintain Output types >> Click on Output type go to default values and set the dispatch time as 3
    Hope this will help you.

  • Printer just started feeding a blank page after some, but not all printed documents

    Printer just started feeding a blank page after some, but not all printed documents

    Hi @cam21 ,
    I understand that you are having issues printing, after some documents you are getting blank pages. I would be happy to help you.
    I would do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
    Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
    Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
    This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    What application are you printing from?
    It may be a setting in the application.
    Does this happen from all applications?
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. http://www.hp.com/go/tools>Using HP Diagnostic Tools for HP Printers in Windows.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • All application slow to molasse after Installing Security-Update 2010_007

    After installing security update, ALL applications, all commands in X11 had response times ALL key strokes of the order of seconds to minutes with >93% of system CPU idle. Console displays the message below ever 60-70 seconds.
    11/11/10 4:25:36 PM updatedyld_sharedcache[12] for arch=i386 failed: read failure copying dylib errno=5 for /System/Library/Frameworks/Accelerate.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/vecLib.fr amework/Versions/A/libLAPACK.dylib while copying /System/Library/Frameworks/Accelerate.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/vecLib.fr amework/Versions/A/libLAPACK.dylib to shared cache
    The solution is a modification of this link
    http://www.macosxhints.ch/forums/showthread.php?t=15517
    Basically, the offending file /System/.../LibLAPACK.dylib is moved from the system directory to a current directory, e.g.,
    sudo mv /System/Library/Frameworks/Accelerate.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/vecLib.fr amework/Versions/A/libLAPACK.dylib .
    and then back to the original directory, e.g.,
    sudo mv libLAPACK.dylib /System/Library/Frameworks/Accelerate.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/vecLib.fr amework/Versions/A/libLAPACK.dylib
    Problem solved without reboot as system immediately returns to normal. Why would a security update from Apple cause this?

    Andreas, do you have this info in english? I'm having a similar problem, and I want to see if I can solve it; or could you tell me what you did to solve it?

  • If I upgrade to Mac OS X Lion will I lose Applications/Documents/etc.

    I was wondering if I upgrade to Mac OS X Lion tomorrow, will my applications and all the documents that are saved on my computer be there after the upgrade? I do not have money to buy an external hard drive right now to do the back up, so will I be safe without it?

    Hi,
    Look at it this way...
    If you have a Backup and (for whatever reason) Something goes Horrible Wrong.. You have Lost Nothing...
    Without a Backup... You could Lose Everything....
    Not a Nice Thought At All...
    So take all the Advice already Offered and Backup... Backup... Backup...
    And then Upgrade your OS...
    Just my 2 cents worth...

  • Global item for all applications in a workspace

    Hi All,
    Is there a way to set a global item available for all applications in a workspace?

    Sabiha,
    I know this is a bit late, but here's what I did. This answer spans your question a bit but may be helpful to others.
    I have a dev, test, and prod environment so we have difference values depending on the instance. When moving an app from dev to test I don't want to have to modify any substitution strings since that can become a pain and possibilities of someone forgetting something is high.
    1- Great a table called global_values, which has a value_name, and value
    Let's say you wanted to store an email address: admin_email...
    2- Make sure to insert into global_values ('ADMIN_EMAIL, '[email protected]');
    3- For each application you have, create an application item called G_ADMIN_EMAIL
    4- For each application create a process (on login) called: Set Global Values. In this use the util:
    HTMLDB_UTIL.SET_SESSION_STATE (
    p_name => 'G_ADMIN_EMAIL',
    p_value => <function to get the global value> );
    4(extra): For one application item this is ok, but to make it even better, just create a function that will set all the application items so you don't have to change this in all your applications.
    The advantage with all this is that the data is stored in the DB and will help you move from instances without any errors. The disadvantage is that it'll be a slight performance hit since you're calling a function for each user login. You'll also have to add an application_item for each of your applications....

  • Application document created by IDoc

    Guys,
    Is there a function module that would give me the Application document that got created by posting a given IDoc? In other words, if I know the Idoc number, is there an easy way to get the application document number, once the Idoc posted succesfully?
    All this from an ABAP program is what I mean.
    Your help is appreciated.
    Thanks a lot,
    Viktor

    these are some of the functions which you can use for the application document

  • Inbound idoc application document not posted

    Hi,
    idoc status is 51 i.e. application document not posted.. when im tyring to send the cm data to other system it is successfull and doing some modifications in that and the same is sent from the other non-sap system to sap system.
    During the sending from non-sap to sap system, the inbound idoc is getting the error as 51. and also providing some field name as kna1-cassd is not an input field.
    This field is not being provided with any value but still the idoc is getting error with this field.
    "Even i tried in the sap system itself, taking some sample data tested in we19 and executing with inbound idoc f.m:IDOC_INPUT_DEBITOR.. still the  idoc is getting error message as 51 (with the same field).
    Please provide your valuable suggestions to solve this problem.
    I had created one cm and tried but still the same message is comming.
    Awaiting your help.
    thanks
    rohith

    Thanks for all your suggestions..
    The problem is that im using the standard function module:IDOC_INPUT_DEBITOR..
    So, this function module cannot be modified which is not my requirement.
    My requirement is that i will send an outbound idoc to some non-sap system and now the non-sap system will make some modifications and resent to sap system (here in sap it is an inbound processing).
    So, during inbound processing the status is showing as 51 due to the field kna1-cassd..
    So i cannot make any customization but the inbound processing should be done and it should be saved into the db...
    Hope you have got a clear requirement.
    Waiting for your response.
    Thanks
