Problem Transferring items between computers

Hi, I followed the instructions under Transferring items between computers, and the pc I tranferred to gives me an error message stating: "Document is not licensed for this device type." Both devices are HP with WIndows 7. The ebook opens just fine on one HP, but not on the second HP. How can I get it to open successfully on both computers? Thank you.

Ken,
If you need to regularly transfer data then I'd set up an Ethernet connection to file share and then transfer (modern Macs have at least 100BaseT Ethernet (which is around 12MBps max).
If it's a irregular transfer you don't do often then using Firewire Target Disk Mode (theoretical 50MBps max) is probably easiest:
Connect the two Macs with a 6pin-to-6pin Firewire cable.
Restart the donor Mac which has the files on it and hold down the T key.
The hard disk of the donor Mac will appear on the second Mac.
Transfer your files.
Drag the hard disk of the donor Mac to the Trash to unmount it.
Power down the donor Mac using the power button.
Other options include networking over Firewire (again about 50Mbps but some overheads for the protocols involved) or Airport (original approx 1MBps max, Extreme approx 6MBps max).

ITunes 11.0.2 will not allow me to drag any files to import items between computers using Home Sharing. Help?

There are no "import" thumbnails and I'm un able to drag and drop files. I've ensured on both computers that they both have sharing capabilities. All the websites say that I should be able to just drag and drop the files into the outgoing computer linked to my homesharing network, but there is not reaction from the file when i try to grab it.Thanks everyone!

I can not find the "Show menu" button either!    I am trying to do Home Sharing between 2 PCs in the same room. The Home Sharing Libraries show up ok on each, with the various tunes displaying on each, but I can not move (or "import") tunes from one computer to the other!   It also won't allow me to drag from my husband's library to my library, and vice versa.    I can play them ok on each computer, but the dragging or importing is not happening.
Apple, please fix this!   Both PCs are up to date with iTunes 11.0.2.26.
Anyone have any suggestions?   I just want to move legally purchased music from one computer to the other. This shouldn't be that difficult.     It's supposed to be the point of Home Sharing!

Problem transferring calls between Voip phones when the call is originated

Hi,
I have configured a gateway h323 (3640- 12.3) to communicate with Cisco Callmanager 3.3(4).
On the H323 gateway I have installed one BRI interface and one FXS interface.
Inside my network I am using VoIP telephones 7910.
Originating calls in the Voip telephones which destination is the PSTN is working fine;
Receiving calls from PSTN that destination is VoIP telephones is OK also;
Redirecting or doing Hold on calls between VoiP telephones works but..
When redirecting or doing Hold on calls between a VoiP telephone and a call from PSTN I loose the voice stream.
Apparently, all signalling is working fine because when redirecting the call originated in the PSTN from one VoIP telephone to another VoIP telephone, I can see the Calling number ID. Even if I use the telephone keyboard, I can listen the tones, but I have no voice stream.
Please any help will be welcome.
Thanks,
David Costa

I have tried different configurations and now it is working. The problem is that I couldnt identify were the miss configuration was.
Another question is: Can I use a codec with compression between voip interface of h323 gateway and the Callmanager or Voip phones to pass music on hold?
Now I only pass music on hold if I configure G.711 on the voip interface of h323 gateway.
Thanks,
David Costa

Transferring Music Between Computers With Ipod (Very Unique Situation)

My Ipod has about 300+ songs on it that aren't on my old desktop (Windows)and I would like to know if I can get those 300 songs off the Ipod and onto my new MacBook Pro. I looked at the tutorial for how to do this and I saw two problems I would need to address. The first is the guide says something about not being able to move the files from a PC to a Mac and the second is it talks about updating the files on the ipod which I can't do since the files I want to find aren't on there. Can I move these files without updating the Ipod? Oh and by the way I moved all the other files over to the MacBook.

There's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
If you prefer something more automated there are also a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. I use Senuti but check the others out and choose whichever you are happy with.

There is also a new function in iTunes 7 under File, "Transfer Purchases from iPod" which transfers iTMS purchases. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting to your MacBook and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press *No* (or "Cancel" if you are using iTunes 7). Pressing "Yes" (or Erase and Sync in iTunes 7) will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod will 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. In iTunes 7 Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting: Managing content manually on iPod
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.

Transferring profiles between computers via time machine

This may be a dumb question, but I'll ask anyway. My new MBPR is one of the ones with a faulty battery in the 100k+ thread below, and Apple agreed to send me a brand new one. The problem is, they're not sending it until they receive the defective one back. I need to migrate over the profile to this new computer. Files aren't my concern, as they're all backed up - but my profile and network settings are.
In my company, our Mac "specialist" took a new job, and they're in the process of trying to replace him. So, I don't want to go through the nightmare of reconfiguring the network settings on the new machine.
But, if getting a new machine is the only option - is it possible to restore that sort of thing from a HD backup, the same way that you would migrate in a direct connection from computer to computer?

Make a Time Machine backup of your current computer. When the new computer arrives, use Setup Assistant to restore the Time Machine backup of your old computer to your new computer. Your new computer will then be identical to your old computer...network settings and all.

Question on Transfering Music Between Computers

I have read the article on using the iPod as a harddrive and transferring to a new computer...but there's still a couple things I'm not clear about.
1. If I wanted to tranfer my iTunes library to a new computer, I would first transfer all the music to my iPod, then, in the new computer, make sure Syncing is off, and then simply transfer purchases from iPod? I got confused in the article where it reads: "If you've erased the iTunes library on your computer, there's no way to use the Finder or My Computer to copy the media from your iPod to reconstitute the library on your computer." Is this simply saying the only way to restore the library is to use the "transfer purchases from iPod" option or re-burn and buy all my music?
2. If I purchase a song from another computer and load it to my iPod, will the song be erased when I hook my iPod to my home computer if it syncs before I use the "Transfer purchases from iPod" option?

can anyone help here?

Transferring Ical between computers

I have recently transferred all data from an old Macbook to my new Macbook Pro using firewire. Unfortunately the bug that was in ical was also transferred and so will not sync with Mobile Me. I have returned the old Macbook back to factory settings using the installation disks so there is now a good copy of ical on the old machine. I now want to transfer the good ical to my new Macbook Pro, can this be done using firewire or any other means? If not how can I fix my ical?

Just what it says - open System Preferences, click on Mobile Me, and in the Advanced tab there should be an option to reset your sync data.

Transferring Printers Between Computers

I just finished setting a new Retina MBP up from a Time Machine Backup, and printers were not transferred. On the source machine, updated to 10.9.2, there are 7 printers, however on the destination machine, running 10.9.5, no printers copied over. Is there a way to export printers from the source and import them into the destination or some other method of copying printers from one computer to another in Mavericks?

I have no idea if that is possible or if it is done with Migration Assistant.
Seems like it would be faster to just Add the printers.

Sharing/transferring music between computers

I am trying to transfer/share my "podcasts" folder, "purchased" folder, and a personal folder from this computer, my father's laptop, to our home computer, a desktop computer. My dad also uses iTunes on this laptop, so we each have a separate folder within iTunes for our playlists, thus my only transferring certain playlists. I followed each step precisely as shown in the article about this on the website, but it did not work, as many times as I checked to make sure I was doing everything right. When I go to the home desktop computer and check the Look for Shared Music box in the Preferences section, then click OK, nothing ever comes into the source list, where the folders from this laptop are supposed to be. Please help! The home computer is new, and the old one was not capable of having iTunes, so all I am trying to do is transfer my iTunes folders and the music contained in them from this laptop to that computer. Any suggestions? Please?!

Transferring info between computers

my old macbook may have finally died. The battery is bulging and i think its overheated. But it will turn on - with a power cord. I need to transfer files and programmes from that computer to a new macbook PRO. I cant operate the mouse or cursor on the old computer but the hard drive seems intact.
can i start up new computer so that i can see the screen and obtain info from the old one and then copy it across before the old one completelt gives out.
Cheers

With the old computer turned off, connect the computers to eachother using an ethernet cable. Then turn on the old computer while holding down the "T" key, and keep holding the "T" key until it starts up. This will start it in Target Disk Mode. The old hard drive will (should) mount to the new computer's desktop. Then transfer away!
You can also use a Firwire or Thunderbolt cable
I hope this helps!

Transfering settings between computers

I have a new computer and installed elements 11 on it. I have a complete backup of the hard-drive of my old computer.
How do I get all my old settings, tagged people and catalogue from my old computer program on my new one ? I have a large selection of tagged people and places and do not want to lose that information about all the video.
Thank you.

What is the extension for a catalogue ?
A catalog is not a single file, it's a folder containing the main database, catalog.pse13db, together with other files and subfolders (including the cache for thumbnails). The default location (which may be a hidden folder in Windows) can be found by the Help/System info menu of the organizer. You should be able to find that folder in your old computer and to copy it where you want on the new computer. The problem I mentionned will be to get all your pictures 'reconnected'. That can be done with the 'reconnect' command.

Transfering files between computers

I have just ordered an iMac G5 1.9 ghz 17" computer and need to transfer my files from my eMac 700 to the new iMac G5. I also ordered a firewire male to male cable for the transfer. Any suggestions for how to do it so that, other than system software, all my programs and data will be duplicated? I have Drive Genius 1.1.5 and also use SuperDuper for my backups.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Since you are backed up, you can use the Migration Assistant on the new machine:

HELP! Transferring bookmarks between computers

I just bought a new PowerMac and I need to transfer my Safari bookmarks from my Malibu Barbie G5. How do I do it when I've got the two connected?
Thanks!

Move the file Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist from your home folder on the old computer to the same location on the new one.

Transferring purchases between computers & different accounts

I have many songs currently on my shuffle of which were downloaded from from a computer and an account that I no longer have access to. I have a new computer and have esablished a new account and purchased new songs. My computer will access the current library on my ipod but will not allow me to make any changes to it. I've purchased songs on my new computer/account and it will not allow me to transfer them to my shuffle. Essentially how do i fix this so I can edit my ipod and add new songs to it. The account that i originally downloaded the songs from is now inactive.

Bummer, now you are forever going to have to look after 2 itunes accounts.
You need to get into that old account. See if the apple iforgot page helps.
You need to authorize this new PC for both itunes store accounts.
