Original File transfer from G4 to new G5

About to buy G5 20" this week -
Apple Store says they can do file transfer from my imac G4 to new G5 for me at time of purchase, but cannot transfer any 3rd party apps (Photoshop, Ill, DreamW, Acrobat, Word, etc.). However in users manual it looks like if I do it originally myself with SetUp assistant, I can include these apps -- but perhaps not later using Migration Assistant after Apple Store has used the SetUp assistant. I'd like to avoid having to re-install all my apps if possible.
Also, If I do it SetUp Assistant myself, is it best to use Firewire cable vs. Ethernet?
Any intelligence/advice would be appreciated.
thanks

I would just drag app files over via Firewire (which is superior over ethernet).
Here is how it is done:

  • File transfer from eMac to new iMac

    I plan on transferring files from my eMac (10.4.11) to the new iMac with mountain Lion. Since the new Mac doesn't have a firewire port, here is my plan:
    1) buy a 400 to 800 firewire adapter cable
    2) buy a 800 firewire to thunderbolt cable
    3) daisychain them and run migration assistant with the eMac in target disk mode
    Will this work?

    If your old iMac has Firewire, you can use the migration assistant that comes with the new iMac described in this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25773
    If your old iMac has no Firewire, networking the two machines has differing instructions depending on which operating system is installed on the old iMac. What's the newest operating system you have installed on the iMac G3, if this is the case?
    Speaking of operating systems, the iMac G5 does not come with Mac OS 9 preinstalled. Nor is it able to boot into Mac OS 9. However, on its installation disks is a program to "restore" Mac OS 9 so that it can be used in Mac OS X's "Classic" environment. The Classic environment allows most Mac OS 9 applications to work, though many drivers that previously worked under Mac OS 9 may not work within the Classic environment for specific peripherals, and graphics drivers for specific games. If you were only using Mac OS 9 previously, you may want to keep around the iMac G3 for those Mac OS 9 applications that don't work in Classic. One of these three articles explains how to load the Mac OS 9 system folder from the iMac G5 disks:

    I'm not sure which one is appropriate.

    video transfer from computer
             Video transfer from computer to new ipad (ret disp) shows transfering process, but it's not in video or movie  . ...Where'd it go ? sync automatically downloaded some -  but was a bit prejudiced and selective with content mainly all edited by me in Moviemaker (windows 7, probably the reason)
             I use technology since neanderthals roamed the planet . ....don't quite understand  all the nuances  . .. .So, my all things "i" (apple/mac) guru has arranged a meeting,    and I'm impatient.  I know some of my videos are in several formats, etc... and I don't quite understand the differences . ...to me, it's complicated, as Alec Baldwin would say.
            Unfortunately, I'm "late" to the game metaphoricaly ( windows vs apple/mac ). I have a couple ipods and actually endorse the ijet remote device (Co. from San Diego). I have pro tools and other hi tech gear in the pro keyboards/sequencing arena where I've been writing computer music since 80's and it's evolution.

    The Apple video app is very limited in what it will play. If you have multiple video formats and if they will play on an iPad, then you likely need a 3rd party vidoe app. One such is BUZZPlayer which is available in the iTunes App Store on a Mac or PC or from the App Store app on an iOS device.
    You transfer the videos to 3rd party video apps using iOS File Sharing.

  • How to extract original file contents from content server

    Hi,
    1)How can we extract original file contents from the content server (which in our case is SAP database itself)...
    2)What exactly is PHIO_ID and LOIO_ID?
    Thanks and regards,
    Santhosh Kumar U.P

    Hi,
    concerning your first question - please decribe, what you are trying to do.
    Question 2:
    LOIO_ID is the ID of the Logical Information Object. A LOIO is not a real document, but kind of a virtual document, a containerfor all "real" versions of a document. A PHIO (physical info object) is a real document.

  • Getting error in file transfer from one system to another system

    Hi All
    One of my client (User) wants to transfer his file from  SAP R/3 System SAP XI system. He is using a customize t-code ZFIR0325 (Trial balance report transfer to Hyperian System). When user execute the  program he is getting error "File Transfer Failed due to Network chk with Admin"
    I checked with Network team but they said it is okay from their side. We also check for authorization but there is no issue regarding authorization.
    Name of File Path of Aplication Server, XI destinaion and XI directory entered by user is correct.
    We also put authorization trace in XI System to RFC User (In file transfer from one system to another system this RFC User is geeing Used) but no authorization issue was found.
    Please help me to resolve this problem. I any detail require I will provide the same.

    Firstly, no one in the community can answer on how a custom transcation code and a program associated with it behaves.
    If there are no authorization issues in the system, you have to look at the exact error message. Look if your XI system is allowed to receive files from the SAP system.
    Unfortunately, you should do some more home work before putting your question here. If everything is fine and configured correctly, then the issue might be with the program.

  • File transfer from one system to another system

    How can I use ODI to do file transfer from one system to another system ?
    Do I need to create Models or I have to simply use Jython procedure/script to do the same ? Kindly help. I have done DB to DB using Knowledge Modules. But I am not able to understand this piece.
    Kindly help.

    If you are asking about file transfer use ODI FTP tool to do it. If you are asking about file transformation..
    You can not do file transformation directly in ODI like we do in any other ETL tool like data stage or Ab Initio.. File transformation in ODI can be done using staging database in an interface(i.e ELT way).
    Create source and target data stores for the file to be transformed. Create an interface using File to SQL LKM to load the file into staging database and then use SQL to File Integration knowledge module.

  • File transfer from old G4 iBook to new MacBook Pro

    I hope this is the right place for this post/question....
    I am trying to do a file migration from my old iBook G4 PPC to my new MacBook Pro. The iBook does not have the migration utility and when I put the new OSX DVD in from my MacBook (as instructed to do in the Migration utility's steps) it does not read it (presumably because it is not the right processor, etc) so I had no luck doing the computer to computer transfer. I do not have the "Time Machine" utility on the old computer and using my regular back-up did not allow me to migrate using the "other drive" option (MacBook never saw the drive in the utility, but does mount it and allow me to access it as a drive). I can do this the hard way, file by file, but I have a couple of concerns that I want to check on before I spend hours going down a bad path.
    1) I have thousands of songs in my iTunes... can I drag and drop these? What about my play lists?
    2) iPhoto - I have thousands of photos - how do I easily transfer those over in their respective scrapbooks?
    3) Bookmarks, I can deal with by trying to find the file and importing them, or doing it manually, although there are a lot of them. Easier way?
    4) Outlook - I can try to export and import using the built in features, but not sure if that will pull all the folders and structure.
    Those are the big ones... I have had this computer for 8 years, so it is pretty embedded in my life and I am hoping for a utility or something that will help this process.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Keith

    The migration utility in the newer computer's OS X would usually allow
    the older Mac's info to be pulled into the new computer; the installer
    disc for the new Mac won't do anything for the old PPC Mac since it
    would be unreadable. Intel-based Mac machine-specific discs won't
    work in PPC-based Macs; and in general different machines can't
    or won't use the install-restore discs from other models.
    There may have been a way via ethernet, usb or firewire to share files
    using a System Preference panel setting to facilitate this action. The
    suggested method should be adequate. You can also put an iTunes
    library and iPhoto library on a suitable external drive to par-down the
    content and reduce clutter in a portable computer's hard disk drive
    and still be able to access those carefully moved libraries from there.
    Some good support documents in Apple Support tell how to do this.
    In Firefox, you will have to rename the old folder of bookmarks to the
    same name as the existing new apps folder for them to be seen. I
    just replaced folders, carefully, so if that didn't work the first time, the
    items were easy to find and try again later. Once you get the folder,
    the contents should appear in the new browser version as they had
    in the older one, to some extent, after the file or contents are moved.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
    The Knowledgebase article <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1963?viewlocale=en_US">Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated</a> refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
    If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate.  Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
    Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
    >Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
    >Screensavers written for the PowerPC
    >System Preference add-ons
    >All Unsanity Haxies
    >Browser and other plug-ins
    >Contextual Menu Items
    >Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
    >Kernel extensions
    >Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries</li>
    See also <a href="http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/universal_binary/univ ersal_binary_exec_a/chapter_950_section_1.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002217-CH 210-TPXREF101">What Can Be Translated by Rosetta</a>.
    In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
    If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
    If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
    The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
    Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior 4.1, TechTool Pro 4.6.1, SuperDuper 2.5, and Drive Genius 2.0.2 work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard.  The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries.  Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
    Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check <a href="http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060126094146180">MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index</a>.
    <b>Additional links that will be helpful to new Intel-Mac users</b>:

    <a href="http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25773">Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ</a>
    Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking
    will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs.   The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode.  It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
    <b>If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions</b>:
    1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
    2. Backup your data.  This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
    3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
    4. Startup your old Mac in Target Disk Mode.
    5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
    <b>If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)</b>
    1. Set up a local home network: <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1433">Creating a small Ethernet Network</a>.

  • Transfer from iPod to new PC

    can anyone help...
    I recently had my pc stolen amongst other items from my house....fortunately my mini ipod was in my car at the time and this wasn't nicked...
    can anyone tell me how to transfer the songs i have on my mini to a brand new Dell laptop...
    can i do this or do i need some 3rd party software???

    How can Stuart copy music between computers, when his original one was stolen?!<<</div>
    Precisely! He can't use his iPod to transfer his libary to a new computer because his original was stolen.
    In order to use your iPod to transfer songs to a new computer, you need another authorized computer. A third party app will be required if the origianl computer is unavailable. My answer simply piggy backs on yours and points him to a link to show what he apparently wants to do is impossible.
    "Copying songs from your iPod to your computer
    The iTunes library on your computer holds all the songs you've encoded from your CD collection or purchased from the iTunes Music Store. With default settings, iTunes automatically copies the songs in your library to your iPod. When you use your iPod as a hard disk, you can't see the songs iTunes copies to your iPod in the Finder or My Computer. This is normal. Using the Finder or My Computer, you can't copy these song files from your iPod back to iTunes or to any other computer. The synchronization between your iPod and your computer is always one way: from iTunes to iPod.
    If you've erased the music library on your computer, there's no way to use the Finder or My Computer to copy the songs from your iPod to reconstitute the library on your computer. One solution is to encode the songs from your CD collection again, then sync your new library with iPod. If you purchased songs from the iTunes Music Store and didn't back them up, there's no way to download them again. You'll have to buy new copies of the songs.
    So what if you have some songs on one computer and you want to--legally--copy them to another. Can you use iPod's hard disk for that? Sure.
    Configure iPod as a hard disk as described above.
    Locate the iTunes Music folder on your computer. Inside the iTunes Music folder are all the songs you've encoded or purchased. They're organized by artist in various folders.
    Drag the song files you want to copy to the iPod disk icon in the Finder or in My Computer. The number of songs you can copy will depend on how much free space there is on your iPod's hard disk. The computer copies the songs to your iPod. Keep in mind that iPod can't play these songs. You have to copy songs with iTunes in order to listen to them with iPod.
    Eject iPod before disconnecting it from the computer.
    Connect your iPod to the other computer. iTunes opens and asks if you want to associate your iPod with the music library on that computer. Make sure you don't do that, unless you really want to.
    Double-click the iPod icon in the Finder or My Computer. A new window appears.
    Arrange the windows so you can see the contents of your iPod and the iTunes library.
    Drag the songs from your iPod to the iTunes window. The computer copies the songs to the iTunes Music folder on this computer.
    To free up space on your iPod, drag the songs you copied to the Trash or Recycle bin and empty it.
    Eject iPod before disconnecting it from the computer."

  • Transfer from iPod to New Computer

    I use my iPod to listen to recordings of lectures. I do the recording using a digital recorder, then download to the PC and import into iTunes then sync to iPod.
    Recently my PC crashed and the hard disk is no longer recognized. I will have to buy a new hard disk and reinstall everything to get that PC up and running. It will take a long time.
    I tried to sync from iPod to another PC to continue using the iPod but it won't let me. I got a message saying that everything in my iPod will be deleted if I use it with another PC.
    I can understand the copyright issue for purchased music but I don't have any -- everything in my iPod is recording of lectures.
    I looked for Apple Support but all their Support web site does is refer me to this forum.
    Can someone suggest a way to transfer from iPod to a new PC? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for all your help,

    Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    iRepo Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Computer was stolen--how to transfer from iPod to new computer

    My computer was stolen and I want to transfer my iPod library to my new computer. I know how to transfer from one computer to another using an iPod but is there a way to do it when I don't have the computer that has my iTunes library?

    There are a number of third party utilities you can use to retrieve the files from your iPod. This is just a selection.
    YamiPod
    PodUtil
    PodPlayer
    iPodAgent
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive posted in this thread: iPod to iTunes
    If your iPod was set for automatic update change it to manual update. While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 3 and 30 seconds depending on your computer. Then go to Preferences>iPod and check the "Manually manage songs and playlists" box.
    Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again.
    Another way is to connect your iPod and before it starts to sync, click the little X on the right hand side of the display beside the "Do Not Disconnect" message. The display is the little window to the right of the iTunes control buttons: iPod Interface
    Or you could look at the method described in this link: How to keep iTunes from automatically updating your iPod
    Go with whichever method you feel most comfortable. If at any point you are asked if you want to link your iPod to a new library, click No.

  • Bluetooth file transfer from Sharp GX29 mobile phone to iBook

    hello all,
    got a new sharp gx29 mobile phone.
    problem:
    cannot send files via bluetooth to my ibook.
    but can send from ibook to Sharp.
    when trying to send from phone, a dialog window opens on mac os x, asking whether accept or cancel the transfer.
    no matter how many times i click on accept, nothing happens, sometimes it hits it, and goes further to a transfer dialog window with the transfer progress bar, but it starts to transfer and stops at about 5-10%, and nothing happens.
    Any one has Sharp GX series and problems like me?
    I know that Sharp is not supported by isync, but that's not what I am trying to do (isync), just a normal file transfer.
    Thnx
    Tom

    I myself have missed the obvious many times so I'm going to ask.
    In System Preferences/Bluetooth/Sharing. Do you have: Bluetooth File Transfer and File Exchange checked???? Then make sure your settings in the pop up menus on the right are correct.
    If you have everything set properly in Bluetooth preferences on your iBook then you might try the Sharp web site for troubleshooting since you can't send files via Bluetooth to your iBook, not the other way around. Sounds like maybe your Sharp possibly has something blocked somewhere...
