Moving Thunderbird from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 8.1

Hi,
I have not yet found a way to move all my e-mails from my Old PC Windows 7 Starter to my New PC Windows 8.1
How do I do it ?
Easy transfer did not work and manually I do not know what folders to move
Thanks for your help

There is an add-on to TB which allows import and export of emails in various formats to a separate storage medium (external disk, thumb drive, etc.).
The instructions on how to download and install it can be found at http://barryduggan.info/exportMail.php
Then you can export your address book in LDIF and import it in Win 8.1

Moving iTunes from Windows to a Mac... for multiple iPods

I have just bought a new MacBook Air, and am facing a problem of how to move my current iTunes over to it!
The main problem is that I currently have 3 different iPods on the go (shuffle, video and iPhone) all with different music on them. At the moment I have managed to put an iTunes library for each of them on 3 different windows laptops/computers, but as I'm off to university I would ideally like to put all 3 libraries on my new MBA.
Has anyone got any advice on how the best way is to do this? Would a separate hard-disk work for moving the music over from Windows to Mac? Also I have no idea how you create 3 separate iTunes libraries on one MacBook!
Thanks in advance

The easy answer is to just drag and drop all her music files into the new iTunes Library on her new 12" PB.
Get them on media (CD/DVD) or however you want. My favorite method is to get both systems on the network, drag copies to a temporary folder on the desktop. Then the PC is out of the loop. And you have not commited to a MOVE or DELETE of the source at this point. Then, drag and drop the temporary folder into iTunes. As long as it is setup properly, iTunes will COPY the files as added, and ORGANIZE the files and folders for you. After all that, delete the temporary folder.

Moving LR2 from Windows to Mac; drive formatting issue...

Over the past year I have gradually switched from Windows OS to Mac OS and Lightroom is one of the last to migrate.
I have a 22+K image library (both images and movies) with a deep directory structure accumulated over many years, currently on a Windows NTFS formated drive. I moved the LR catalog to the Mac without problems and it now has no problem "seeing" the images on the Windows drive, HOWEVR, since this is a NTFS formatted drive I can only read and not write to the drive and thus I need to move the library to either a FAT32 Windows drive or (better) to a native Mac OS drive.
The problem I am running into is that if I move/copy the images outside of LR, the software cannot "see" the images on the new Mac OS formatted drive. Moving the library from within LR does not work because when LR tries to erase the images from the Widows drive it returns an error and stops the process. Exporting the image catalog seems to export the images and not the movies that are scattered through the folders and thus creates a file managing headache. I have read extensively through tutorials, support pages and discussion forums and cannot find a discussion of my specific problem. Am I missing something? Any suggestions?

Thank you for both suggestions! I am not quite sure what to make of this... I had tried what Jao vdL suggested before and it didn't work. Upon trying to find the files on the Mac-formated drive I usually get the message:"Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo. You will not be able to make adjustments to the photo" At the time my understanding was that the problem arises from the different ways that both formats handle individual files.
Just in case, I tried the whole process again last night and got the same error message but then I left the computer running overnight and this morning everything seems to be fine. As far as I can tell the library and catalog are intact and LR is behaving normallly. Strange! Regardless what the reasons behind all this are, it worked so... thank you!

Moved file from Windows XP to Windows 7 - reason sound is bad?

I can access my ITUNES after moving file from XP to laptop which uses WIN 7 but the sound is awful when playing through ITUNES. Music much better when played through WINDOWS Media. The equalizer doesn't seem to be engaged. Is there a setting that might be getting in the way or do you think it's the way it was transferred .... or something else. GENIUS's at stores offer no help since my laptop isn't an APPLE. No sympathy there either.

The equalizer doesn't seem to be engaged
Is it engaged?
Check the EQ and check the settings in iTunes prefs -> Playback

Moving music from windows media player

i swear ive done this before, but i cannot remember how i did it. how do i move .wma files from windows media player into itunes library? i cannot drag them over, i just get the circle w/ a slash. ive tried sync-ing them directly onto my nano from media player program & it lists them in the pop up window on my computer, but they are lsited no where in song titles on my actual nano for me to access. ive tried converying the format & it wont allow me. i know it can be done, i just cant figure out how. thank you.

First, find out where Media Player has stored the music files on your computer. It typically is in Documents and Settings\(Your Name)\My documents\My Music and then there should be a folder that has a name that resembles Media Player. If you pull up Tools>Options and click the "Rip Music" tab it will show you where you have your music stored. So then pull up this folder that it tells you to, then pull up the iTunes window as well, and then simply drag and drop the folders into your iTunes music library. iTunes will convert the songs automatically for you, sometimes this may take a while. For example, I have 3300 songs on my Hard Drive and it took the entire day for iTunes to convert all of the ones it needed to. So just be patient and you should be good to go.

Moving Contacts from Windows XP Outlook to Mac Leopard Entourage

Is this possible? Can you provide directions? I have Bootcamp if it helps. Thanks.
Louis

Latan:
There is a way of importing contacts from Windows XP Outlook to Mac Leopard Entourage and that is by saving a file in a Text - comma separated values and then importing into Entourage.
Here is how:
1. Open Outlook in Windows
2. Click on File and then *Import and Export*
3. Choose *Export to a file* and hit Next
4. Choose *Comma Separated Values (Windows)* and hit Next
5. Then highlight Contacts and hit Next
6. Choose a filename and a place to save the exported file and hit Next
7. Confirm with a check mark next to *Export "Contacts" from folder: Contacts* and hit Finish
The above will have generated a file with the exported contacts from Outlook. Remember its name and location on the HD.
1. Open Entourage in Leopard
2. Go to File and choose Import
3. Place a check mark on *Contacts or Messages from a text file* and click the *Right Arrow* at the bottom right of the window.
4. Place a check mark on *Import contacts from a tab- or comma-delimited text file* and click on the *Right Arrow* at the bottom right of the window.
5. Locate the file that you created above and highlight it in the next window. Once done then hit Import
That should bring in all the contacts into Entourage.
The above instructions are for importing outlook contacts into Entourage (Office 2008 for Mac). If you have any other version then it should still work however the menu choices may be slightly different.

Moving farm from Windows 2008 R2 to Windows 2012 (R2?)

I've been asked to move our current small SP2010 Server farm (WFE, App, and SQL) from Windows 2008 R2 servers to new Windows 2012 servers.
Any limitations that would prevent this from happening? Any major differences? Installation through the GUI won't be a problem? Any benefits to tout? I've installed 2012 R2 on a HyperV but haven't messed around with it much beyond that.
Thanks,
Scott

For SharePoint 2010, I would suggest sticking to 2008 R2. It is the most well tested operating system for SharePoint 2010. There may be some unknown gotchas that the community is unaware of with Server 2012 or 2012 R2.
Otherwise, everything should 'just work' with SP2 media.

Moving picture from Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition 3.0 to a folder in MY PICTURES

What is a simple way to move a picture (or group of pictures) from Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition 3.0 to a folder in MY PICTURES? I do not have a PHD in computer science, but I am a Grandpa, so please make the directions simple. I have a PC with Windows XP. Thank you.

Hi Chester,
Unfortunately with the SE version, it does NOT have a MOVE utility. The GOOD
news is that it will update itself on where you physically moved the
picture.
Step 1. Click on Start, Programs, Accessories, Windows Explorer and locate
the image that you wish to move;
Step 2. Move the image to My Pictures per your question;
Step 3. Open Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition;
Step 4. Click File, Reconnect All Missing Files.
That my friend should be it. Have a nice day.
Cheers

Moving music from Windows Media Player to iTunes

Hi
Apologies if this is repeating what others have asked many times in the past - I know what these forums can get like sometimes! I have had a look around though and couldn't find a definitive answer, so...
I have to date put all my music in Windows Media player on my PC. I am now going to buy an ipod so, obviously, I need my music in iTunes.
Is it simply a case of copying the folders from 'My Music' into the iTunes version of 'My Music'? If so, where is the iTunes version of 'My Music'..?!
Thanks
Percy

FIrst before I say anything else, As of now its only...6:30am here on the east coast USA (Which means its 3AM in California) so the event has not taken place yet. Apple is very secritive about what there doing, and anything you hear is rumor til apple comes out, says what there doing/announcing and makes it fact.
Now that said, there has been RUMORS (So far) apple MIGHT release some type of new nano and/or video ipod along with an announcement they have made deals with hollywood to start selling movies on there US store.
I just wanted to give you a heads up just incase you was buying today and the rumors turned out to be true. I would of utterly hated for you me or anyone to buy an ipod today, and then later in the afternoon, or tommorrow apple release a new ipod. If that happend to me... I would be Cursing up a storm (Southern slang meaning I would be REALLY UPSET LOL)
Theres alot of news about the event along with rumors that have be heard, just not confirmed by apple yet. One of them is here

Moving iPod from Windows to Mac OS

I have an 80GB iPod color. I was using it on my Windows laptop, till the laptop died. I purchased a MacBook Pro and would like to start using the iPod with the MacBook. When I connect the iPod to the Mac, I see the Do Not Disconnect message. The iPod was locked when I connected it, and the lock symbol remains no matter what position the switch is in. Also, the battery life indicator is not showing an increase in charge. My guess is the iPod is frozen. When I sync'd my iPod to my old Windows laptop, did I essentially lock myself out of using it with a Mac?
Right now, I have unplugged it from the MacBook and I am hoping that when it loses it's current charge it will reset back to a state where I can play music. But how do I use my iPod with my new laptop I guess is the real question.

15' MacBook Pro 2.33GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8) 80GB iPod Color

You simply plug the iPhone into the new Mac via USB and sync it with iTunes. Doing that, though, will erase all the contents on the device. Before you do anything you should transfer your personal data, including iTunes library, from the original computer to the new Mac. These Apple KB articles will help:

Moving iTunes from Windows 2000 to Vista Home Premium

I am buying a new computer and am currently using Windows 2000. I have an older version of iTunes on it because I haven't been able to download the new version since Windows 2000 is no longer supported.
I have my entire iTunes folder backed up on another computer via a home network. I am wondering how to get all this onto my new computer. Should I:
Install the new version of iTunes on my new computer and authorize this computer?
Copy the iTunes folder from my back-up computer to the C: drive of my new computer?
If I do this, will it automatically restore all my playlists on the new computer?
Also, I have a lot of mp3 files that I have imported into my library which are currently residing on my C: drive and not in the iTunes folder. I believe iTunes is "pointing" to those files. If I move these mp3 files to the same location (same folder name) on the C: drive of my new computer will these be restored as well, or will I have to import them all into iTunes again? We're talking about 400 songs here and I would rather not do that if I don't have to.
Thanks for any help you can give me!

By clicking "yes" to that message, anything on your iPod _*that isn't in your iTunes library*_ will be deleted from the iPod.
If you need to transfer music from your iPod to your new iTunes installation, then check out Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
*_Do this before you do anything else,*_ or you may lose what's on the iPod.
