One machine doesn't recognise the other

I want to migrate data from my MBP to an iMac using ethernet cable but neither machine recgnises the other. MBP is running Mavericks and iMac is running Mount Lion. What can I try?

Hi,
Is this via a router ?
Or by two standalone machines and one Ethernet cable (no other network) ?
If via a router do you have the Show Share option enabled in the Finder's Preferences > Side Bar ?
In System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing is the access allowed ?
If Bonjour Shares are not showing up in the Finder's Side Bar check this out
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3789
You may also want to enable SMB in the advanced Button of File Sharing in the Sharing in System Preferences.
You may also want to check System Preferences > Network and see if they have IP addresses in the same range (the first three should be the same)

TS4006 I want to set up "find my ipad" on my sister's ipad, so we can find each other's iPads. However, this seems to require differing individual cloud email addresses, so one ipad wouldn't recognise the other one. How do I get round this?

Many thanks for the quick response.
I'm fine with using the same ID for iCloud, so I'll give that a try.
You mention that a lost ipad can be found from any computer. As a relative computer novice, I didn't know this. How would I go about carrying out such a search?
I don't think I'd use the find friends app. My concern is to find a lost or stolen ipad.
Thanks

I have XP on one machine and 7 on the other. Firefox 8 works perfectly on XP but my other machine is a disaster. I can not access the add ons at all and everything is gone: too many tabs-roboform whatever?????????????????

It seems that the upgrade has destroyed the entire firefox experience. What is also strange is that the desktop image is coming through the top of the Firefox page.

Jon already touched on this, but to use your "new" network, without NAT, the subnet needs to be "known".
With NAT, you can place multiple hosts behind one (or several) IPs on your existing subnet. I.e. you new subnet doesn't need to be known. (In fact, you could use any subnet you want.)
The reason the Linksys worked well yet the 2600 did not, "Enterprise" class routers generally don't handle PAT as well many consumer class routers. (NB: True NAT would probably work just fine, but what you need is to overload an IP, i.e. PAT). So, many applications won't work. (NB: I believe newer IOS versions do better, though.)
Many small Cisco Enterprise class routers, especially those from two generatations ago, were designed for "slow" WAN links, like single T1s or partial T1s, or perhaps for a few Mbps DSL. If your link has more bandwidth the router may not have the performance to support it effectively.

Audio chat works on one machine, but not on the other!

First up, my setup:
Comcast Cable Modem -> Linksys Router -> iMac (Core2Duo), PowerBook (G4), Vonage
Both systems running OS X 10.4.10. Both systems are connected through their Airport cards (ethernet cables are pulled) to the router.
To better debug the problem I turned the Firewall and LittleSnitch off on both systems.
The router's firewall is turned off as well.
Port forwarding is also checked, and the PowerBook is not even listed having any ports forwarded at all (that's the one iChat audio chat works).
There must be something blocking the iMac... but I can't seem to figure it out. Any help greatly appreciated!
Here the error message when trying to start a audio chat on the iMac:

well, i updated the router (latest firmware is from april 2006!). rebooted the modem, then the router, restarted ichat. same problem unfortunately. however i found some geeky cool-aid on macosxhints. a shell script which configures the router to enable dmz, and another one to disable dmz. with a little shell script one should be able to enable dmz, start ichat. and upon quitting ichat disable dmz. not the best solution, but this will help me out...
thanks to tony for his help! (we should send him a fruit basket or something 8)

HT201250 I have two external hard drives. One is my Time Machine backup drive. The other I use for external storage of files (documents, photos, movies, etc). Can I set Time Machine to backup BOTH my Mac hard drive and my other external hard drive?

I have two external hard drives. One is my Time Machine backup drive. The other I use for external storage of files (documents, photos, movies, etc). Can I set Time Machine to backup BOTH my Mac hard drive and my other external hard drive?

Yes you can make multiple backups on one hard drive, for example if you’ve 1TB hard drive installed in your PC and you’ve two Mac Machines with 500GB drive each then you just make two backup images with size of 500GB each.

IMac doesn't recognise the internal hard disk (intermittent)

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could give me an advice on this problem.
Background: A few days ago my iMac (20-inch MA877LL) would not boot up, it would sit on the gray screen with the wheel spinning for ever. I thought the OS might have got corrupted so I tried to re-install Snow Leopard from the CD. Installation fails with a message like 'the content of HD can not be changed'. I then went to Disk Utilities trying to repair the disk but had no luck with the repair so I decided to format the disk. I managed to get into my hard disk using the cmd R key combination at power up and backed up my essential files onto a external hard disk. I formatted/erase the hard disk (zeroed out) and tried to reinstall the Snow Leopard again. The installation failed again. Rebooted the system again and tried to re instal again but this time I got as far as the 'select the disk where you want to install Mac OS' but my Hard Disk is not listed, it's a blank list! Rebooted the maching again, tried the installation, this time it sees the hard disk but the installation fails again.
I have tried to change the boot source by hodling the 'alt' key down at power up, but I am only given the option of the CD drive with installation disk as the boot source i.e. no Har Disk. It appears that the Hard Disk is intermittently recognised and hence my problem with booting the maching when the problem started.
I am happy to purchase an internal disk to replace the existing one, but I have a feeling the actual Disk it's OK, after all I managed to access my data to back up and then format it with no problem. I just think there's a problem somewhere that intemittently doesn't recognise the Hard Disk.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

You need to have the hard drive replaced. The one that is currently installed has failed.

How do I import an iPhoto Library (V.7.1.5) created on my old MacBook (10. 6.8) into my new Macbook pro (10.9.1) running iPhoto 9.5.1? I tried copying onto memory stick and moving to new mac, but new iPhoto doesn't recognise the library.

How do I import an iPhoto Library (V.7.1.5) created on my old MacBook (10. 6.8) into my new Macbook pro (10.9.1) running iPhoto 9.5.1? I tried copying onto memory stick and moving to new mac, but new iPhoto doesn't recognise the library.

So what exactly did you copy over? If it's a 12 gig iPhoto Library then it sounds like the files are there. Perhaps the copy went wrong along the way.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Regards

I have photos on a cd which I'm trying to open . If I click on them I can see the picture in the preview, but when I double click it doesn't recognise the picture. They are all in .jpg format. Tried copying them but it said some data cannot be read.

Select one and hit the Space bar to view it in QuickLook. Use the forward arrow keys to move from file to file. If the file can't be viewed in the QuickLook mode then the file is damaged and probably can't be copied or moved.
You could try a photo file recovery application like MediaRECOVER which can scan the memory card and tell you what files, if any, can be recovered before you have to purchase it.

How do I get my iPad and IPhone synced where if I delete an email off one it is deleted off the other device?

How do I get my iPad and IPhone synced where if I delete an email off one it is deleted off the other device? I can get all the Apps and music from one to the other but why won't the emails I delete off one not delete off the other? Is there anyway where I can make this happen?

As James says, make sure that you are using the IMAP servers for your email. You will need to check the help pages for your email provider to get the correct settings in all your devices. POP really doesn't fit the needs of todays mutiple access, always on internet, so you are better off moving to IMAP.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Satelite L645 doesn't recognise the internal CD/DVD Drive

thing is, this computer a Satelite L634 SP4019M doesn't recognise the internal CD/DVD drive, not even as an unocupied drive in the "My Computer" folder (just the C: drive is displayed). I have searched and I don't think I will find drivers for this online... what else can I do?
Does it has anything to do with this very same computer not recognising it's own touchpad as well? (I use an external mouse, to compensate)

Good for you.
In case somebody viewing this doesn't understand what happened (I don't), the usual fix is here.

It is possible that you are not following instructions correctly in the DNG converter. The DNG converter interface asks for the FOLDER that contains your raw images. Choose the folder, but don't open it. After you have chosen the folder, click on the Convert button. The DNG conversion process should start. Does that help you?
