New CS6 Owner - Migrating Settings wish

Look, I love Illustrator [and CS6 is not only blindingly fast over CS5 - but packed with sweet new features] - but I'm glad I was a cynic and did something that I've been doing since CS4 [at least].
Namely creating a folder [of folders] of all my Brushes / Swatches / Scripts / Styles / Templates / Actions / Workspaces etc. [I would list custom Stroke Widths over here. but I don't know where that info's kept] before installing a new edition - as the new versions [still] don't ask whether you want to migrate these from your current instalement [so had I not have done my aforementioned, I'd have lost all my custom support I've collected and made over the years].
This would be a nice UI / Consumer amendation for CS7 and beyond - thanks!

> What do I use to store all my files and settings
An external USB or Firewire drive and software like SuperDuper or Synchronize Pro to copy across.

  • I just bought a new Mac and migrated my CS6 over.  Now when I open it, I'm told I'm running a trial version of Cloud.  Why can't I use my CS6 version that I purchased?  I don't want to pay for something I've already bought.

  • How do I migrate settings from CS2 to CS6?

    Hi,
    Being unwilling to mortgage my future to CC, I have taken the plunge and bought CS6 while it is still available. This is on Windows 7.
    Is it feasible to migrate settings from CS2 to CS6 and if so how do I do it? I am not sure whether CS6 installation will automatically uninstall CS2 or require me to do it.
    Thanks.

    Hmmmm…  My pedestrian Mac Book has the lowly Intel GMA 950 chipset with a mere 64 MB of VRAM in the form of Shared System Memory.  Photoshop 13.0.5 chugs along, minus the advanced graphics capabilities or GPU processing, of course.
    Until I acquired the 65-lb Mac Pro, that was my dinky Photoshop CS6 system. 
    I was happy to be able to run ACR 7.4 on it. 
    Once again, accept my most abject apologies for the confusion created by my misunderstanding.

    Congratulations on your investment in a Mac. You're life is truly about to be very simplified. You're going to love your new iBook. I know I do! People always contemplate Mac as being a great platform or not but it usually comes down to the gaming aspect. Silly gamers!. lol... use a PS2 or Xbox or something.. just dont use Microsoft for computing, its unneccessarily complicated yet still so many people adore confusion, WHY?!?
    In response to your email message movement:

    Email messages and settings
    If you use a web-based email service to view and send email, such as Yahoo! Mail or Google’s Gmail, then you won’t need to copy your email or email settings to your new Mac. You can continue using web-based email with our Safari Internet browser.
    However, if your email is managed by a separate application like Outlook or Eudora, then you will probably want to migrate your old mail to your new Mac. Different email programs use different methods of storing messages. We’ve collected some useful links to help.
    Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express use a proprietary format for storing messages. Microsoft’s web site has a tutorial on how to transfer email files. Or you could invest $10 in Little Machines’ Outlook2Mac, which is compatible with Microsoft Outlook only, not Outlook Express.
    Eudora, Netscape Mail or other mbox-based mail application use a standard mail format. Read this article for information.
    You should also make note of your existing email settings. Later, when first using your new Mac, you’ll use this information to set up email. Open your email application, find the “Accounts” area, and write down the following information about your existing email setup:
    Account type: POP or IMAP
    Email address
    Incoming mail server
    Outgoing mail server
    User name and password
    Hope this helps. If you have any questions about your Mac from setup to maintenance to upgrades, let our community of Apple discussion contributors assist you. We know Macs great and are always ready to help as best we can. Good luck and thank you for making the intelligent switch to Apple.

  • I can't get my password manager working. It remembers passwords for websites but when I enter in a new password (because this had to be changed) or when I have a new username + PW that I wish to save, the password manager does not appear.

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPhone by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.
    If you created a new account then you can log out of the old account and in with the new one as above, but any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can re-download its content and download updates to its apps.

  • Migrating settings from  1.5.0.53 MAIN-53.04 to MAIN-53.38 does not work

    I just download the latest SQL Developer, Version 1.5.0.53 Build MAIN-53.38. When I run it it prompts to migrating settings from a previous releases. When I select the configuration directory (~/.sqldeveloper/system1.5.0.53.04) from the previous release it does not import any of my connections.
    The ~/.sqldeveloper/MigrationErrorLog.xml contains only the following:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
    <log>
    </log>
    You can use the "export connections" in the older version and then use "import connections" in the newer version but if you have the connections organized into folders all of the folders are missing on import.

    Migrating from a non- supported release (Early Adopter) to a supported release is not supported. As folders were not supported in releases prior to 1.5, these will not be migrated. Officially the only migration route supported in from 1.2.1 to 1.5.

    I am a long time iTunes user but a new MacBook owner! I keep the majority of my music files on an external hard drive.   I'm trying to view all those files on my MacBook through iTunes.   With windows you would go to : File/Add To Library, and iTunes would add all your selected files to your music library BUT WOULD NOT COPY THEM TO YOUR HARD DRIVE.  In other words, if the external hard drive was connected, you could listen, drag/drop, and edit the files.   When I tried the same thing with my new MacBook... it actually started coping the files to my MacBook harddrive.  I don't want that, it's millions and millions of mp3's that I don't want to keep on my computer, only my external hard drive.   Can anyone help?    I'm sure it's something easy, I'm just so new to the Mac world.   Being an iPhone owner for many many years I'm picking up things fast, but this is getting the best of me!  Help !

    In iTunes 11 uncheck the preferences setting in in the iTunes Preferences panel "Advanced > Copy Files to iTunes Media folder when adding to Library"

  • I just setup mine and my wife's iphone 4 on new ios5 and icloud settings.  Our phones are both on my account.  Her phone is receiving my contacts, calendars, etc. due to this.  Is there a way I can separate her phone from my account in itunes and icloud?

    I just set up mine and my wife's iphone 4 on new ios5 and icloud settings.  I have both phones on one account and actually she purchases apps/music with my sign in and password on her phone. 
    Now that we are set up on icloud settings, her phone is receiving my calendars, contacts, etc.  she does not want and does not need any of these items on her phone.  How can I separate the two now?  is there a way to have a different login and password for her phone so that it sets up on its own icloud settings?
    Thanks

    She should create her own Apple ID and start using it for everything, including purchasing.
    It starts on the computer in iTunes. There are 2 elements we are dealing with;
    purchasing items from iTunes (apps, music) and playing items in iTunes.
    Only one Apple ID can be signed in at a time for purchasing. But you can "authorize" multiple Apple IDs for playing. As long as iTunes is "authorized" with both your Apple IDs, items purchased with these different accounts can coexhist in one iTunes Library.
    Why this is important, it has to do with back up and being able to transfer purchased items to the computer.
    Once your wife sets up her own account, she will want to connect the iPhone to the computer to back it up and transfer any new purchases, iTunes will need to be authorized for that to happen.     
    With that said, a new feature of iColud is back up. It will back up everything to the cloud. You need to turn it on, it's at the bottom of the iCloud settings on the iPhone. It is limited to 5GB for free, you can buy more. I used all 5GB my first back up, but I have a lot of crap, and there's a lot of things on the iPhone that get backed up that don't count against the 5GB, so it might be plenty of space for you.
    When it comes to the iCloud and contacts/calendars, again your wife needs her own account. (ASAP)  Does she have a computer in her life that has a list of her contacts and calendars. I hope so, because it sounds like her contacts on her iPhone are now mixed with yours. Or I hope there is still an untouched list of contacts on the iPhone that iCloud didn't mix.  Either way Delete your iCloud account from her iPhone. Remove the data, as long as it isn't hers. This will delete all info being synced to the cloud. If she still has a list of her old contacts on the iPhone, great. If not, I hope she has them somewhere else, like her own computer.
    Create her an iCloud account. Enter the account info where ever there is a list of contacts/calendars and get the info onto the cloud, then add the iCloud settings to any other devices. 
    Any new apps/music purchased with her account will back up to the cloud. I don't think apps purchased with your account will. She will also need to enter your password for updating these apps, because they were purchased with your account.
    I hope this helped and didn't make thing more confusing.  Good luck!

  • NEW THINKPAD OWNER SEEKING HELP

    Hello everyone-
    I am a new ThinkPad owner.  I purchased a used T40 recently and love it. I installed Windows7 on it (it came with W7, but I wiped the hard drive clean and re-installed).
    I do have a few issues I was hoping to get some help on.
    Nothing happens when I hit the IBM Access button.  I know the button itself works because I’ve used it to get into the BIOS.  I read on the Lenovo website that I have to get a separate driver to use with Windows7, but I have note been able to find it.  Does anyone know where I can find it?
    Also, my ThinkPad has a 32G ATI Radeon 9000 video card, but I don’t think I have the proper driver for it because Windows installed a Standard VGA driver and I am not able to use Aero (which I was before).  I’ve searched both ATI and Lenovo websites for a driver. Any idea where else I can find it?
    Thanks for your help.
    T40 2373-94U
    ATI Radeon 9000, 32MB

    Recovery parition can only be installed from IBM/Lenovo recovery media, and for your machine these were only available in W2K and XP. You'll never be able to have a proper recovery partition with W7, even if you were to install the OS from recovery media for T400, since the hardware is way too different.
    You can't install a better video card, since the card itself is soldered to the motherboard. You could swap an entire motherboard. How cost-effective this would be in the long run is up to you to decide.
    Hope this helps.

It took me three days to finally get a code to do it and when I tried downloading it, the estimated time was 74 days 17 hours. Now an error occurred. What do I do? I am very frustrated and just want the great software to download in a resonalbe time!

    Take your Mac to a location with a fast, relaible Internet connection that will be all yours during the duration of the download.
    If you want to complain, PLEASE call Apple and do so.
    Internet only downloads of OS X is completely stupid, it assumes everyone has reliable Internet everywhere and /or no data caps.

  • Just downloaded Firefox 6.0 and have restarted 4 plus times, but it continues to hang while launching. I cannot open new windows, change any settings, or do anything but Force Quit. I'm on Mac OSX 10.5.8. How do I get past this hang?

    Long story short: Simply get CC for teams. At 500 bucks a year it's a steal and those 5 licenses in the base package (or was it 10 even?) cover all your computers, at least the 3 ones you mentioned. For system requirements refer to the individual product pages.
