Probably not the right place but...

I've just got back my ibook g4 WITH leopard now installed but with all files/apps etc wiped clean; some recovered on external drive - log job to trawl through...
However, as a part shortcut to this I could possibly transfer many duplicate files/apps from my imac - if I knew how. I have them both connected via firewire but unsure how best to achieve without further potential calamity.
any advice gratefully received...
Thanks, bob

you could use Migration Assistant (it's in /Applications/Utilities) to transfer your data, apps and accounts from the iMac to the ibook.

    The above is an objective from Edexcel's Higher National Diploma syllabus for the unit Java Programming.
    Another part of the syllabus, referring to this, talks about Javascript. Having contacted Edexcel and pointed out that Java and Javascript are different, I was told "oops we meant Java".
    Has anybody any idea what they might be expecting because I can't get them to answer any more queries.

    Either way, if they got it mixed up then that is course you want to stay well away from.
    Java in web page = JSP or JSF, 2 examples.

  • Probably not the right section but....  Java Machine error?

    three computer in a dental office which i've installed the dental software on. (connected to a server)
    2 of the three work flawlessly however one computer gives this error when trying to connect to an EDI server or print.
    Couldn't Start Java Mahine - error: .:Can't create Java VM - DLL Path (null)
    The only difference between the computers is two computers were natively MS XP Pro, and the one with the problem was originally an HP computer that shipped with XP Home edition, and was upgraded to XP Pro.
    I apologize if this is in the wrong section, I'm not a developer.. I just wasn't sure where to go, I couldn't find anything in the MS Knowledge base.
    They have no internet in this office, so it's hard to trial and error and do research on location, any help is appreciated.

    Sun's Java can be uninstalled using the "Add/Remove Programs" function of Windows.
    You might want to test to see if the difference in the PATH is the cause. Temporarily change the PATH of the problem computer to be the same as one that works. Save the original PATH value so you can restore it after testing.

  • I apologise in advance if this is not the right forum, but I need to do a reformat on this computer.  My question is, after deactivation of CC, PS, LR and Bridge do I need to uninstall them as well?

    If you are going to reformat the hard drive, wiping out all data on the computer, there is no need to uninstall.  Deactivation is enough.

  • Not the right category but........

    I know this not the right category, but I've talked to many here about the free program MPEG streamclip. I have a friend who has a Koadak HD zI8 camcorder and is unable to edit the .MOV files using anthing else, other than the Koadk software that he doesn't like.
    He would prefer to use Windows Movie Maker (ya, I know), which takes WMV files as well as AVI files.
    Does anyone know if MPEG streamclip for a PC will work for this scenario?
    Thanks a bunch in advance!

    Well I got this to work using a poop quality setting, which was DV/DVCPRO-NTSC but this was not HD or widescreen. Doesn't MPEG Streamclip have a setting that will preserve a little more quality and work on a PC since it works on a PC???
    Thanks,

  • My Driver is not the right kind but my software is unreadable????

    I have a very complicated problem with my Ipod nano. My USB port does not have the right driver to update my nano but the driver needed is on the nano software, which my computer does not recognize. I have tried the 5 R's three times now, no result. Oddly enough, everything ran smoothly with my old Ipod Mini. What Is Going On?

    If by the nano software, you mean the installer/updater, you can always download the most recent version of that (and iTunes) from Apple.

  • Not sure if I am In the Right Place but I Will Give it a Shot

    Hello- I have been with Verizon for about 4 years. I still have the same phone I got when I initially signed up.  It is a MOTO with everything turned off except incoming and outgoing calls.  I made a "big move" to a 3G USB device because the thought of being able to drive and get on the internet seemed cool.  that worked OK but when the MIFi came out, I went for that in hopes when I was home I could put it out on the porch and not get dropped calls so much.
    I now am up for the New Every Two for the cell phone and the data device.  I heard also that they are doing away with New Every Two so I might be too late.  I would also like to take a big jump for me and get a smartphone or the iPhone.
    I am not good at all at picking this technical stuff up.  I am on my 3 MacBook pro, and still I mess it up for doing something stupid.  the 4G LTE seems cool but I can't et a good picture of what it looks like in the Salt Lake City area.  On my computer it looks like most of the Salt Lake City area is 4G extended and some 3G which I heard can be a nightmare by dropping when you move from 3G to 4GLTE. Somebody emails me sending me the map and saying it was all burgundy being 4G LTE tops with minimal $G extended.  I do not see how they got this but the map they sent me it looks like that.
    I am not clear if the 4G LTE services and products are just making their debut or I should wait awhile until the network expands some.  I was under the impression by the 4G USB device and the bill inserts that Verizon was full force selling their 4GLTE products.
    since I have a New Every Two (if it is still good) for my MOTO phone and the MIFI2200, I can get $35 for the phone and $50 for the MIFI. In looking at the products I saw the Droid X which has outstanding reviews except for the battery. One post said he bought  an extended battery and it made a big difference. If I would like to get rid of the MIFi and get a new phone, would the Droid X be something that would take over for the phone and the internet and the 3G connection?  Would there be any reason to wait until this same phone came out in 4G and once I find out where Salt Lake City, UT is with the 4G network, get a 3G phone?
    I do not have a natural ability to use these devices, in fact I am not sure what exactly this phone would take over.  it sounded like it would be a phone, text, skype phone (not sure what a skype phone is but I do know skype) an internet device all in 3G.
    any help in this  major question.  I do not expect anybody to tell me what to do.  I posted this type of question before & I got nailed by a few guys for wanting someone else to make up my mind for me.  I am looking for suggestions, recommendations, what this phone actually does since i am not familiar with the droid OS.
    Thanks for any help or suggestions.  I will take them all as just one's opinion and suggestions.
    In Full Appreciation!

    Hey VisMagica and welcome to the forum -
    You can upgrade the RAM and Hard Drive yourself and save money. It is extremely easy and there are several instructional videos on the internet. Plus there's the friendly help available by the kind folks in this forum. If you want to have Apple or a service center do this for you, you will have to get a quote from them. Apple does not sell notebook drives.
    Depending on your MacBook, you can increase your RAM to 2GB-4GB. The HD possibilities go up to 500GB. Your most expensive venture will be Leopard.
    Costs (in US dollars):
    Ram $30-60
    HD $50-100
    Leopard $129
    Tools needed: Phillips 00 screwdriver, #T8 Torx Screwdriver, any coin

  • Not sure if this is the right place, but I need help working with wtmpx

    I am trying to write a program that collects data from the /var/adm/wtmpx file and I would like to use the structures and functions provided by the utmpx.h file in /usr/include. I can read the utmpx file with no problem, however I would like to read the wtmpx file. I think the way to do it is to use the function utmpxname(). However, this appears to be the one function that doesn't seem to work. The compiler complains that there is no function utmpxname(). I am mainly a C++ programmer so this code is a little confusing to me. Where can I find the actual implementation of the utmpxname()? PLEASE HELP!!

    This is a Solaris question. You should post it to that discussion.
    Items in section 3 of the manual are not part of the compiler. They
    would be in libc or some other system lib distributed with
    the OS and not maintained under the compiler collection.

  • Not sure if this is the right place but......."noisy iMac, whats the deal?"

    Hey,
    I had recentely been having problems with my first gen iMac G5 (distorted video, noisy fans e.t.c), but after sending it in for repair ,courtesy of Apple Extention Repair Program, I am still having problems. I don't get the distorted video anymore but I am still getting the noise coming from my computer. Should this all have been taken care of when I put it in for repair or is the noise a seperate issue? Also, is there anyway I can fix this because it is driving me crazy?!?!?!
    Thanks
    Ian

    Since it was in for repair, I certainly would have mentioned it to the techs when I brought it in.
    There is no way for you to fix it, as the parts are no longer considered user serviceable.
    Since you just sent it in, I would call them and tell Apple that you are still having noise issues and see what they will do.

  • Not the right place to ask this but...

    iPhone 4S will start shipping to my country in the 22nd of November, but retailers here are starting to sell it at twice what it costs.
    I though Apple condemned this actions. Can you elucidate me?

  • App store billing issue (prob not the right place for this but i couldn't find a better one)

    I have been using the same card for my itunes account for as long as i have had an itunes account and a personal credit card, all of a sudden about a week or so ago while trying to update some applications on my iphone it asked me to sign in and confirm my billing information, from that day on it has refused to recognise the security code for my credit card or any other credit card for that matter, has anyone else had a similar issue with billing for their app store/itunes account and if so is this something that can be fixed easily without sending the device out or going to a repair centre
    the most frustrating thing of all is all of the updates i need to install are free updates for applications that were also free :-/

    go to http://zip4.usps.com/zip4/welcome.jsp, enter your billing address, it will then show you how the USPS recognizes your address. Enter that address EXACTLY how it is shown on the USPS site into your itunes billing address info.

  • Not sure if this is the right place, but what video capture software....

    do you recommend? I need something that's cost efficient. I see that there is Mac Capture and Screen Record software that is available and both are under $30. Do any of you have experience with either one of these? Or are there any other that you guys recommend? I want to record the audio and video of the video files that I play on my Powerbook. Thanks.

    To me cost efficient is what works the best.

  • Mabye not the right place-iphone 3gs 16gb costs?

    Hello!
    I live in Israel, and in 2 more weeks i will be in the united stats.
    I've decided that i want to buy myself an iphone 3gs there(i know that i wouldn't be able to talk until "something" would happen)and i want to know, how much an iphone costs without any contracts to at&t? i heard that it's 599, is it correct?
    thanks a lot, Dvir Ginzburg.

    I don't think AT&T will sell you a phone like this. That pricing is usually for replacement by existing customers.
    I would have someone call first to confirm.
    Also, if i were you, I would not count on "that something" happening in 2 months. 6 Months if ever. If you really want an iPhone, order one from Buy.com as it is carrier unlocked nad resold from Italy. Or go to Europe and buy a carrier unlocked phone.
    Buying a new AT&T phone has a high probability of being an iPod for 6 months or forever.
