Networking my old iMac with my new one

Hi,
I would like to connect my old "Lampshade" iMac G4 with my new one, which has a 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. I basically want to connect a 2001 iMac with a 2008. I was told I could connect it via Firewire (400 to 800 or 800 to 800???). I'm a bit confused.
Thank you.

correct.

depends on what ports are available. if the old Mac has a FW 400 port, you need an adapter or a FW 400/800 cable.

If I replace my old iMac with a new one can I burn DVDs on an external drive using Mountain Lion or Toast?

My 2006 iMac is getting a bit long in the tooth and I was thinking of replacing it with a new one. However, Mac have not included an optical drive and I back up my photographs on DVD as well as external hard drives. I also supply DVDs of my work to friends etc.
Will I be able to burn to an external drive using Mountain Lion or other software such as Toast? Does the burn option still exist on the new machines?

Hello,
You shouldn't have any problem, if you do just try Burn...

Don't migrate wirelessly unless you have a very fast wireless connection. Anything other than 5 GHz 802.11n is likely to take an unacceptable amount of time.

I have cs5.5 master collection. Replaced my iMac with a new one, used migration assistant, now on the new iMac the apps will not open,

Thanks

Thanks Romshina
I read the link you send me and thanks, but the thing is that I still can't get into my Adobe Id, because when I try they ask me to reset my password in an email they will send me to my old account and there is the problem, because I don't have acces to that old acount, [email protected]
now this is my new email, because the las one it was hacked and I just can't get back to it.
So I would like to have access to my account and update this new email account, to have acces to my CC account.

If you are past the return date, you can sell the older iPad and put the money towards a new one.

Compare an old report with the new one

Hi,
i have saved a report in Answers. Then in my cube data are changed. In Answers i re-submit request and save new report with new data. Now I would compare two reports. But when i open old report, data shown are new. So I have two identical reports. How can I compare an old report with the new one? Thanks
Giancarlo

ok then why don't you create two distinct reports but each with different filter value on the time column.
so that one report will give you old results. another report will give you new results.

I can't migrate files from my old imac to a new one.

I can't migrate files from my old imac to a new one. I'm using a firewire 800 to a thunderboldlt adapter, my new imac doesn't find the source. Would a usb 2 to usb 2 work?

Did you put your old iMac in Target Disk mode? You need to do this to use Migration Assistant to transfer your files to the new iMac.
Hold the T key while your old iMac is starting up to start up in Target Disk mode. After doing this, your new iMac will detect it as an external drive, so now you can transfer your files through Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5872?viewlocale=en_US

Transferring Abobe CS5 from old iMac to a new one

I'll be getting a new computer later this year. How easy is it to transfer Adobe CS5 from my old iMac to my new one? Thanks for any help.

Let me try to simplify things for you.
You can install CS5 on you new MAC. For that, as Dov said, deactivate CS5 from your old machine and then install it using the dvd installer or downloaded installer on the 2nd machine.
If you donot have a dvd drive on the new MAC, you can use your old MAC and copy the disc to its desktop and bring it over to new MAC using usb drive.
Alternatively, you can download CS5 directly on you new MAC using the below website but make sure to read the "Very Important Instructions", mentioned on that website, very carefully before downloading it.

No. but you can sell it privately and use the proceeds towards a newer used model.

I replaced an old Itouch with a new one, and now Itunes will not recognize the new one.

I recently replaced my old I Touch with a new one. Now I cannot get Itunes to recognize it in my library.

You need iTunes 10.7 or later on the computer.

How to replace an old DC with a new one with out to much work

Without having to unjoin and rejoin all the clients to the new domain?
Basically my company has an old Server 2003 R2 standard and we are getting a new server machine with a 6 core E5 Xeon that will have Server 2012 R2 standard installed. I will be transferring all the data from the company share drive easily
and making it shareable on the new server. I just don't want to go over to each computer and unjoin them from the old domain and join them to the new domain on the new server, and have to setup their outlook, move their data in the user profile etc...
I want to keep the same domain name and users.

Probably your easiest option is to join the new 2012 R2 server to your existing domain, promote it to be a second domain controller, then once it's running as a DC move the FSMO roles from the old server to the new one (see
http://trunkofmemorie.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/how-to-change-fsmo-roles-in-windows-2012.html for a step by step guide to the process) so the new server effectively is in charge, then when you're ready you can demote the old server before disjoining it
from the domain and retiring it.
See http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/show/57636-migrate-active-directory-from-server-2003-to-server-2012-r2 and
http://blogs.msmvps.com/mweber/2012/07/30/upgrading-an-active-directory-domain-from-windows-server-2003-or-windows-server-2003-r2-to-windows-server-2012/ and
http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2014/04/02/step-by-step-active-directory-migration-from-windows-server-2003-to-windows-server-2012.aspx and full details of all the steps required, since there's a fair bit involved.

HT1349 combining my old itunes with a new one

My computer crashed and I need to combine my old itunes into my new one!

What do you mean by "iTunes"? iTunes is a program that runs on the computer and there isn't really anything to combine -- it's like saying you want to combine Word with Word. Do you mean your library? Do you mean you created a new AppleID and a new Store account?
Do you have a backup from your old computer?

Replacing my old iphone with a new one, need guidance/help please

Hello fellow iPhone users.
This is my first post on these message boards ever so please excuse me if this has already been discuessed before.
Recently a friend of mine dropped my iphone pretty badly and it got scratched up except for the screen however he offered to replace it for me by buying me a new one. I insisted he didnt need to but now its too late because he already opened the box. My question is, what is the process I have to do to activate my new iPhone and deactivate my old one? Can someone explain to me the steps involved in this process?
Also, how can I transfer all my contacts that are only on my iPhone to my computer so that I can transfer my contacts back again to my new phone? Also, how can I transfer all my bookmarks on my older iPhone to my comptuer so that I can send them to my new phone? Is there any clear cut easy way to do this process? Any help is much appreciated.
Essentially, what I want to do is restore all my settings, text messages, email settings, wifi hot spots, bookmarks, images etc etc on to my new iPhone while restoring my older iPhone to its blank factory condition.
Thanks a bunch

iphonefan1,
To transfer your information from your old iPhone to your new iPhone, you are going to want to do a few things:
1) Backup any information on the old iPhone to your computer. You can use Windows Address book or Outlook (2003 or 2007) to backup contacts and Internet Explorer to backup your bookmarks. You will need to import any pictures you have taken on the iPhone to your computer (they do not sync) or email them if you would like them saved. Sync your old iPhone with iTunes so that it will make a backup of your text messages and other preference information.
This article describes what information can be directly synced from your iPhone to the computer:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306071
2) Take your SIM card out of your old iPhone and put it into the new iPhone. This takes all of your ATT account information to the new iPhone so that you will not have to run through a full activation again. You will have to run through a mini-activation, but all of your information will already be set up.
3) Connect the new iPhone into your computer. As part of the mini-activation process, iTunes will ask you if you want to restore your iPhone from the backup. If you say yes, then it will use the preferences from your old iPhone and put them on the new iPhone. You can then sync any information (contacts, bookmarks, photos, etc.) that you backed up on the computer from the old iPhone to the new iPhone.
This article will help you import the data on your computer to the iPhone:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305741
4) Once you are confident that all of your information has been transferred from the old iPhone to the new one, you can restore the old iPhone and that will put the software back to factory settings. That will also erase all of your old data. (This process cannot be undone, so please make sure you do not need any information off the old iPhone before you restore.)
Hope this helps!
Jennifer B.
