Need Help on Data Back up and Retrieve

Hi Mac Helpers
I have a Macbook Pro Late 2008 Model and have both my Iphone and iPad synced to it.
I intend to save all my data from the macbook to a Time Machine and then sell my macbook as I intend to buy a new one this July.
My questions are
1) would I be able to retrieve all my settings and data from the Time Machine to my new Macbook.
2) Would my iPhone and iPad Sync with the new macbook or would I need to set up a new sync ? I am hoping once I am able to retrieve all my settings and data from Time Machine to the New Macbook both my iPhone and iPad would be able to sync without requiring the need for a new sync setup .
I hope I was able to make myself clear to you guys.
Thank you in advance

Yep.

Yep. If you restore everything to your new Mac, after you authorize your new Mac, your phone & iPad won't notice any difference.
Make sure you De-Authorize your old Mac BEFORE you wipe it: iTunes>Store>De-Authorize this computer.

  • Need Help in dynamic object building and retrieve infos about it

    Hello,
    I'm building a flex project where i want to add tabs to a navigator which contains a text area and 2 buttons.
    It's ok to build it but my problem is to access to all this data inside the text area..
    This is a part of my code to create a new tab:
                   var newCanvas:Canvas = new Canvas();
                    var newVBox:VBox = new VBox();           
                    var newLabel:Label = new Label();
                    var newText:TextInput = new TextInput();
                    var newChatBox:VBox = new VBox();
                    //var newHBox:HBox = new HBox();
                    //var newButton1:Button = new Button();
                    //var newButton2:Button = new Button();
                    numChild = nav.numChildren + 1;
                    newVBox.label = "Panel " + numChild;
                    newLabel.text = "TabNavigator container panel " + numChild;   
                    newText.id = "txtMsg"+numChild;
                    newText.width = 379;       
                    newChatBox.id="chatMessages";
                    newChatBox.width=550,
                    newChatBox.height=55;  
                   newVBox.addChild(newChatBox);
                    newVBox.addChild(newLabel);
                    newVBox.addChild(newText);
                   newCanvas.addChild(newVBox);
                    child.addChild(newCanvas);   
                    nav.addChild(child);
    When i create it, i get the name of the vbox and the label (exemple: vbox450label449):
    var myobj:Object = nav.selectedChild;
    Alert.show(" test "+myobj.getChildAt(0));
    I want to get the information in the text object instead of his name. How can i do that?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi kglad,
    Thanks for your reply,
    I've try it but it doesn't work..
    I've have this at the beginiing of the code: var objectIndex:uint=0;
    In my function i have this :
                    var newCanvas:Canvas = new Canvas();

                    newVBox.label = "Panel " + numChild;
                    newLabel.name = "newLabel"+objectIndex;   
                    newLabel= getChildByName("newLabel"+objectIndex);
                    Alert.show(newLabel.label);
                   objectIndex++;
    And i have errors, i have tried newLabel:Label= getChildByName("newLabel"+objectIndex); and newLabel:Object= getChildByName("newLabel"+objectIndex);
    but it don't work again..
    I have change the name of the object too without success..
    The name of the object seems to be newLabel0 but i'm unable to get his properties correctly..
    Thanks again and sorry for being slow to understand..

  • I need help restoring data from my time machine.

    1)  On the time machine, where do I find the TRASH file that is located on the dock in my desktop?  I'd like to restore that to a prior date but can't find it.
    2)   I DID A VERY BAD THING & need help to get back to where I was before.   I wanted to delete files that were taking up lots of space.  My OTHER section  was using 160G.  I downloaded OmniDiskSweep and found that 120G was being used by my virtual machine (I run Quicken in Windows, through VMware).  I started to delete files that were called Snapshots assuming these were the snapshots that the program regularly takes of my files. Apparently they were not. I also deleted the program Windows XP Professional because that was never used.  When I try to open VM or quicken program, it says it is missing a particular snapshot, i.e. Snapshot 11104.  I deleted about 20 of these. I left all the other files that said Windows XP Home Edition.  But now it shows that I only have the Professional Edition, even though that's what I deleted.  I'm trying to restore from Time Machine and it looks like the information is not there - I've tried various different backups and nothing seems to have the information I need.  The earliest back up I have is from 5/7 when I started time machine on a new external 1TB HD.  Would that have the information I need since it's the very first back up?  Please Help.

    I am assuming it's real data because it's taking up storage on my HD.  It falls in the category "other" and the total of this section is 160G. Here is a snapshot of the virtual machine.
    I also took a shot of the VM snapshots & it tells how much space is being taken up by the snapshots.
    I've now changed the number of snapshots taken down to 12 (didn't know I had this option) & I can delete alot of the 21 snapshots that have already been saved.  I have no idea how much of the HD was set aside for the VM because someone else installed it for me 5 years ago.  I've had enough problems with it over the years that I've wanted to switch to Quicken for Mac or find another financial program to use. I've upgraded the VM 2x over the years, but didn't want to spend $100 for Version 5.   I understand the concept of a VM but that's about all.
    I did do the disk cleanup in Windows on the C drive.  I deleted 700 MB of temporary files and then compressed 4G of data down to 2G.  While the cleanup was progressing it said that the C drive was 30.99G and 78% of it was free.  That just doesn't make sense to me.  It recommended a defrag, so I did that also.
    I'm pretty sure it's real data because I recently had to switch from a 320G external HD for TM, to a 1T HD.  One TM backup was over 300G which I found to be excessive because I basically use my computer for mail, some word processing, and my financial data.
    Thanks again for all your help. I really appreciate it.

  • Oracle XE 10g database offline need help getting it back in 11g EE

    Our server crashed...completely crashed...lightning took it clean out. It was older hardware running server 2003, oracle xe 10g, so we replaced it with a newer better server running 2008r2 (64bit I might add).
    I need to bring the old database, tablespaces and datafiles back online with the new server and the new instance of Oracle.
    I have sucessfully installed oracle 11g EE and can create new a new database (all is online with this), but I need my old data back for PCM 13.1. I cannot find any good online documentation regarding this issue, and we are down until its corrected. Obviously just copying the data over isnt going to work, so any help is much appreciated.
    I have good copies of the old hard drives with the folder structures intact, but there is no chance of getting the old OS back online without purchasing old matching hardware and just slamming the drives into it.
    Basically how do I get the new instance of Oracle to open and run my older database...how do I restore it?

    I did it...yay! Here's what I did...I installed a fresh copy of oracle 10g xe in my virtual xp mode. Stopped the database after installation...deleted and replaced the oradata and fast_recovery_area folders with my old data. Started the database and everything worked so far. In the server with 2008 r2 I installed 11g xe, same system password. I then installed SQL Developer on both computers (easier for me than typing out the scripts). In the XP mode 10g xe computer I did a FULL data pump export to a dump directory. I then moved the dump file to the new server and ran a data pump import, appending data if existing. First time, failed....checked the log and obviously I missed the fact the folder structure MUST be the same for the datafiles or I would have to remap (too much work). The default oradata folder is different in 10g than 11g. I created the oradata folder in 11g xe in the same location as 10g would put it and ran the import script again. BAM, it worked this time...I have my data back in 11g xe and my software was able to find it like it should. Thank you for your consideration and help...hope this helps someone else down the road.

  • Need Help with Dates

    I am printing a calendar and certain events will be helds on certain dates.
    One can edit the event if it has not passed the date. Events in the past can be viewed but not edited.
    When I query the database the date must be formatted dd-MMM-yy
    I am able to get today's date by doing this:
    java.util.Date today = new java.util.Date();
    String formatString = "dd-MMM-yy";
    SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(formatString);
    String today_str = sdf.format(today);
    My code for printing the calendar: I left out some of the table formatting in the JSP page.
    GregorianCalendar d = new GregorianCalendar();
    int today = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
    int month = d.get(Calendar.MONTH);
    d.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);
    int weekday = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
    for(int i = Calendar.SUNDAY; i < weekday; i++)
    out.print("<td> </td>");
    do {
    int day = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
    out.print("<td>" + day + "</td>");
    String formatString = "dd-MMM-yy";
    SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(formatString);
    //if(event exists on this day
    // Get results
    // print link for viewing
    // if (after today) print link for edit
    if(weekday == Calendar.SATURDAY)
    out.println("</tr><tr valign=top>");
    d.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);
    weekday = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
    } while(d.get(Calendar.MONTH) == month);
    if(weekday != Calendar.SUNDAY)
    System.out.println();
    The part I need help on is this:
    //if(event exists on this day
    // Get results
    // print link for viewing
    // if (after today) print link for edit
    I'm looping through each day of the month to print the days. I have the month, day, year as integers. How can I create a date object out of that and compare it to today's date to test if it's before or after today???
    All the function in the Date class that I think would do this have been deprecated.

    Need Help with Dates
    Here is some information about dates:
    There are many edible palm fruits, and one of the most widespread and favored of these is the data (Phoenix dactylifera). Dates were cultivated in ancient land from Mesopotamia to prehistoric Egypt, possibly as early as 6000 B.C. Then--as now--dates were a staple for the natives of those dry regions. Much later, Arabs spread dates around northern Africa, and dates were introduced into California by the Spaniards in 1765, around Mission San Ignacio.
    The date prefers dry, hot climates, because date fruits are injured at temperatures of 20 degrees F, and the damp climate of the California coast was not favorable for fruit production. In the mid-1800s, the date industry developed in California's hot interior valleys and in Arizona. Now the date industry in the United States is localized mostly in the Coachella Valley, where the sandy soils permit the plants to be deeply irrigated. Today the new varieties, mostly introduced in this century, produce about 40 million pounds of dates per annum, or over 60% of the dates consumed in this country. The rest are imported mainly from Persia. According to one survey, about one million people are engaged entirely in date palm cultivation worldwide.
    Hope that helps.

    Hi,
       My friend did change the IPad Wallpaper and when i try to restore it back to the original wall paper. I don't find it at all. Now how do i restore back to the
    default wallpaper. 
    I did try the below options to restore

    James, in case you are having a problem, these are the steps:
    1. Restart the computer holding the Command and R keys
    2. In the OS X Utilities window, select Disk Utility and click continue
    3. From the sidebar, select your internal disk drive
    4. Click the Erase tab near the top of the Disk Utility window
    5. Choose Mac OS Extended (Journales) from the pop-up menu
    6. Change the name of the disk drive if you want to
    7. Click the Erase button near the bottom right of the Disk Utility window
    8. In the confirmation dialog that appears, click Erase
    9. From the menu bar, choose Disk Utility > Quit Disk Utility
    10. In the OS X Utilities winddow, select Reinstall OS X and click Continue
    11. In the Install OS X window, click Continue
    12. Read and licenss agreement and click Agree
    13. In the confirmation dialog that appears, click Agree
    14. Select your computer's disk drive form the list of available volumes, click Install
    The installer will recreate an OS X Recovery HD, and then restart to the newly created OS X Recovery HD, and then continue with the remainder of the isntall process.  This second part may take a while so be patient.  When it completes, the iMac will restart again into the installed copy of Mac OS X as a new machine.  You will be greeted by the full Setup Assistant.

  • My partner deleted my itunes (10) library. I use a WD external back-up and retrieved my itunes library, but when i try to play a song i get the message 'could not be used because the original file could not be found Would you like to locate it?'

    My partner deleted, by accident my itunes library. I have an iMac 10.6.7, Itunes 10. I use an WD passport as an external back up and retrieved my itunes library but now get the message "could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" so itunes is not recognised the exclamation marked songs, how do i get the retrieved files recognised. At times I get fed-up with Apple blocking files being used, although I like the product its restrictions are so silly!

    You not only have to retrieve the library file from the backup drive but the actual music files (usually stored within the "iTunes Media" folder) as well.

  • TS4268 I need help getting my face time and imessage to work.

    I need help getting my face time and imessage to work. It is saying wating for activation. I just got my iphone 5 2 days ago. I have reset it from the phone and from itunes on the computer, made sure I'm attached to wifi.

    The 3 basic troubleshooting steps are these in order: 1. Restart your iphone  2.  Reset your settings/iphone  3.  Restore your iphone.  Since your iphone is only a couple of days old, you should backup your device before restoring.  If you don't have anything on your iphone that you care to lose, then simply restoring without a backup is fine.  A quick reset of pressing the sleep/wake button (top of iphone) and your home button simultaneously and holding it until the silver Apple logo appears.
