New Computer w/(2) ssd's - New Aperture Workflow?

I'm finally getting a decent machine to handle Aperture 3:
Intel i7-3820 4.67GHz Quad Core
32GBs DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
120GB SATA6GBp/s SSD (OS & Application Drive)
Nvidia GTS 450 1GB DDR3 Video Card
120GB SATA6GBp/s SSD Scratch Drive
3TB 7,200rpm 64MB Cache Hard Drive (backup & storage)
It will run OS Lion 10.7.5
Current machine is an early 2006 i mac core duo with 2GB of ram (lets not talk about that) 
Current workflow involves referenced masters (480GB worth)  stored on an external 500GB firewire drive, and the library (46GB) on the HD.
I keep a vault for the library, and back-up all the raw files to another external.
(my raw image files run about 25MB each)
With this new machine, I'll be moving from a Fiesta to a Ferrari, and I might need some driving lessons!
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Dino, San Francisco Bay Area

Manatee,
Have you tried a different Vid Card or RAM to see if the comp boots? Also have you tried the Vid Card in another comp to see if you cannot duplicate the issue or not?
Take Care,
Richard
´lo!
No, haven´t tried a different setup yet.
My old comp has only AGP and low freq memory. And i´m a ronery student with no money 
Just wondering if this was  a known issue...

    I have my my original itunes on my old computer that doesnt accept CD's anymore and My new computer has some of the old songs and some new songs. How do I get all my old content on the new computer and still keep the new content? I also have a few different ipods and I want to have all the songs on all of them but it wont let me.

Frustrated please help!!

    Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • HT201250 when restoring a time machine backup to a new computer, does it affect the new operating system on the new computer

    when restoring a time machine backup to a new computer, does it affect the new operating system on the new computer?

    That depends on how you do it.
    By far the best, easiest, most reliable method is to use Setup Assistant when your shiny new Mac first starts up, to transfer your apps, users, data, etc.   That doesn't disturb either the OS or basic Apple apps that came with the new Mac.  See Using Setup Assistant on Mountain Lion or Lion.
    There is a facility to restore an entire system from Time Machine backups, including the version of OSX on the backup, but that's for use when your internal HD has been erased or replaced only.  It's not a good idea to restore the full backup of one Mac to a different one.  Depending on the circumstances, the installer may not allow it.  Even if it does, the Mac may not start up, or may kernel panic, or not work properly.

  • Hard drive crashed and had over 800 songs on my iPod.  Can I transfer all my songs from my iPod to my new computer so I can download new songs without losing any of my songs?

    My old desktop crashed and I had over 800+ songs on my old computer.  I have a new laptop but want to transfer ALL songs to my new computer not just those purchased on iTunes.  I want to save all 800+ songs and then begin to download new songs to my iPod.  Any suggestions?

  • I have a new computer, and I downloaded a new iTunes for my iPod, but it only transferred my Purchased Songs to my Library, not the other mp3s. Now when I go to add more mp3s and sync, it will add it to my Library, but not my iPod itself... What happened?

    I want to add more songs, but I cannot figure out how to sync my iPod to actually transfer my mp3s. I had done it before, which is how I have most of my songs, but I don't know what I can do without totally erasing everyhing and starting over... Which I don't want to do, because I have a new computer and no old files. I'll have to do that if worst comes to worst, I guess. Hoping there's some other way around it.

    You can only synce an iPod to one iTunes Library/one computer.  However, you can manage music among different computer . see:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    If you want to transfer non-iTunes purchased music from an iPod to a computer other than the one you synced the music from you need to use a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

  • HT4527 My old HP computer has died, that had all my music on it. I have now bought a new computer, installed Itunes on my new computer. I was wondering if there was any way my music could ne transferred?

    My old HP computer has died which had all my music on it, I reinstalled Itunes on my new laptop....is there any way my music can be put on my new computer??

    Since your old computer is now longer working, the only songs that can easily be transferred are the ones you have purchased from iTunes. If you can access the files from the hard drive of the old computer, you can import those songs into the iTunes library on your new computer. Otherwise, you will need to re-import those songs from their original sources, be it CDs, file sharing sites, etc.

    Yes. I have no personal experience with this, but it is possible to recover your music from an iPod. See this link: http://guides.macrumors.com/Recovering_Songs_from_an_iPod

  • Yippee! New computer starts ok...new questions...

    Hi, everyone. My new system starts ok and boots up fine. Bios all set up. I am leaving bios 1.3 in since it's working fine. Not OC'ing. Next step is to load Windows XP Pro, I would assume.
    My question is; what drivers should I load or not load for the mobo? (I have downloaded the latest from MSI rather than use the CD that came with the mobo.)  For example, I see people say not to load Corecell and not to load the IDE SW drivers. (No IDE hard drives are in use on the new computer.)
    What network drivers? I think I've seen that people are having trouble with a certain driver? Ver. 6.66? And should use 6.53???
    What Realtek sound drivers?
    I could also use a guide or tutorial for connecting XP to a router I already have. (Linksys WRT54G). For now it won't be wireless. Does it matter which RJ-45 jack to use on the mobo?
    Thanks much. 

    Hello !!
    I think you should use the standart nforce driver provided by nvidia. yes do not use the IDE driver provided by nvidia, it could cause problems with optical drives.   
    nVidia Drivers
    For Realtek drivers ( Onboard Sound & second LAN ):
    Realtek Downloads
    You should be able to use both lan ports onboard....you should try which one works best for you....

  • I have a new computer and have downloaded some new CD's to my music Library.  When synching the new songs will not download even though there is abundant room on the Ipod and the new songs are checked.  Could this be a Windows 8 issue?

    I have purchased another computer with the Windows 8 OS.  When trying to synch the Ipod to capture some new music I have recently downloaded, the new songs will not show up on my IPod even though I have checked each one to synch.  Any ideas?

    I have a syncing issue involved with putting music on my iphone i am also using windows 8 so who knows?...

  • IS THERE AN EASY WAY TO TRANSFER MY BOOKMARKS TO MY NEW COMPUTER. OLD HP XP NEW HP WINDOWS 7

    CAN BOOKMARKS BE TRANSFERED TO MY NEW HP LAPTOP WITH WINDOWS 7

    That is not normally a problem. It is usually possible to export from one browser and import to the other. What is the browser on the older XP is that firefox or Internet Explorer? and if firefox is it an up to date version eg 3.6 ?
    You also need some way to transfer the files, standard methods may include over a wifi network, or by copying to media such as a CD or a FlashDrive.

  • How do I transfer my itunes to my new computer, do I need a new acct???

    Is there a way to log on to my new itunes with my current apple id and transfer my music??

    Yes, you only have a limit of 5 authorised computers that are linked to your account.
    (You can deauthorise all of them if you reach the limit but you can only do this once a year)

  • Setting up FileVault on New Computer

    When setting up FileVault on a new computer, is it better to copy over all user data and THEN turn on FileVault? Or is it better to turn on FileVault and THEN copy over the user data?
    Thanks.

    I dissagree.
    If your new computer contains a SSD drive then you must turn on FV first.
    Why?
    Because studies have shown that you can not successfully securely erase an SSD drive.  What this means is that once you put any sensitive data on a SSD drive, even if you encrypt it later and "secure delete" the non encrypted data, it is still possible to recover quite easily.
    Bottom line, if you have a SSD or Fusion Drive on your new computer, enable FV PRIOR to coping over any data from your old computer.

  • I am trying to put the music from my ipod onto my new computer. After installing itunes and connecting my ipod touch a message comes up saying that my ipod is already synced with another library. What can I do to sync it with a new library?

    I recently got a new computer and got rid of my old one. I am trying to put the music from my ipod touch onto my new computer but keep getting a message saying that my ipod is already synced with a library and cannot be synced with more than one. How do I access that library on my new computer and if I can't are their other ways for me to put the music on my ipod into my new computer?

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:

    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
