Restoring iMessages from old HDD to new SSD Mavericks 10.9.5

Hi everyone
I recently upgraded my late 2011 MBP with an SSD and did a clean install of Mavericks. Took the old HDD out and put in a USB caddy for external usage and to restore my files.
One thing I'm having trouble with though is iMessage. I don't seem to be able to restore the messages from my old HDD to my new SSD.
Just wondering if this can be done and if so how?
Thanks

No.
The Attachment folder that has an Alias in the other.
This is a Pic of the First folder over the second.
I have the Path Bar Showing across the bottom (any Finder window > View Menu > Show Path Bar)
Sorry it is so big but I need the width to show the names of folders in the Path Bar.
There is no way to "Merge" the Chat.db items
However you could keep you new Archive Folder and move the Contents of that from the Old folder (all the Dated Folders of old Chats) so that the Archive is a combo of old and new.
The Alias need to be recreated as it points to the "top" folder. If you Move the Folder then the Alias will "Follow" and be pointing to the External Disk.

Transfering from old HDD to new HDD

I have a MacBook with the standard 80GB HDD and I purchased a new 160GB HDD. My question is, how do transfer everything I have from my 80GB to my new 160GB including prefs, settings, and files. I didn't want to reinstall all my software and reset all my prefs and settings. I have an external HDD that I can use as a "backup disc." What program(s) should I use and/or method(s)?

I did exactly the same thing recently and did as suggested above....
Get the shareware version of superduper. Rename the external HDD the same as your current internal HDD, then get superduper to copy the internal to the external, ensure you select "Make copy bootable" option. Next swop the old internal oto the new one and re-boot selecting the external as the boot disc. The machine should start up exactly as it did using the old internal HDD. Rename the new HDD the same as the old one and get Superduper to copy everything from the external to the new internal, again making sure the make bootable bit is ticked. Now re-start the machine from the new internal and if it goes like mine did, you won't know the difference, other than having a bigger internal HDD.
I'm no Mac/techie expert, far from it, but I got it all to work first time (thanks to advice gained on here.
Finally, as your feeling all clever with yourself, go register Superduper (it's really cheap and it's just saved you a lot of hassle) and then set it up to make regular "smart" backups to the already correctly named external, then you have a complete back up incase things go wrong in the future.
It's a good idea to not touch the old external HDD for at least a few weeks, months is better, just in case something goes goes wrong further down the line and you need to re-install the old HDD to get something to work.
Good luck
Steve.
BTW- I've no idea why you need to rename the external the same as the old internal, a few just suggested it, and I did it, and the copy worked fine, I've heard of others who did exactly the same but didn't rename the external and had less luck, so best to do it!

Transfer iTunes from old HDD to New Computer

My computer died and I have a new one and I want to transfer my itunes Library to the HDD of the new computer? I have the means to connect the old HDD to my new computer through the USB.

Hello lynton123,
It sounds like you have music that you want to transfer from your iPad to your new computer. You can use the Transfer Purchases function to get your iTunes and App Store purchases copied to your computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
Any media that you had imported to your previous iTunes library and synced to your device will have to be re imported to iTunes, and synced over again.
If you still have access to the computer that the iPad used to sync to, you can use this article to copy over the iTunes library from the original computer to the new one:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

T410S clone old HDD to new SSD failed at the last moment, any suggestion

I just purchased a samsung 840 250GB SSD and want to replace my current 250GB Toshiba HDD in my T410s.
I used the Samsung Data Migration Software to clone the old disk to the SSD. However, everytime it came to 99% completion, it pop out the message "The target disk disconnected -0001 [0xffffffff]" and then the cloning failed. It seems all the docs in C: was copied so I tried to boot from the SSD but it said "missing boost mgr". So does any one know what happend? How can I clone my old disk to the SSD and use the SSD to boost the system? I don't want to reinstall anything.
Many thanks!

Is the Recovery Partition a problem or the System_Drv Partition cause the problem?

Restore Iphoto library from Old HDD to new Machine (How 2?)

I crashed my MacBook Pro and have the HDD in ICYbox IB223 module.
With my new MacBook Air I wish to extract the old Library to th enew machine.
How do I do that?
//Thomas

Are you using the same user name for your account as you used to use on the old machine? Then you can simply copy your iPhoto Library using the Finder.
Connect the box to your new mac as an external disk.
Select the disk in the Finder and navigate to the folder where you stored your iPhoto library. Assuming you used to have it in the "Pictures" folder, open the folder "Users" on the drive, then "Your Home Folder", then "Pictures" and drag the iPhoto library to the folder where you want to store it. If you already created anew Library with a different name, rename the old library before you drag it to your Mac.
Then select the library in the new location and double click it to open iPhoto and point it to the library.
If you are using a different user name now than previously, you will need to set the "Ignore ownership on this volume" flag on the drive you copy from. This can be set in the info panal for the drive (File > Get Info").

How do I restore iPhoto from old computer to new?

I just bought a new computer and would like to merge all of the photos from my old Mac to my new one. How do I do this? I see USB connections but I don't have a usb to usb cord and I am not sure if that exists...? I do have a backup drive. I plugged it in but it is prompting me to backup this new computer, which hardly has anything on it and that is not what I want to do.
I would like to now 2 things-
1) how do I back up from one computer to the other?
2) how do I restore my photos from my backup drive to my computer...?

Are there photos on the new Machine?
If not:
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

HT1589 Transfering iTunes from old HDD to new HDD

Hi,..
The graphics card in my laptop that I had itunes on crashed so I took the hard drive out and placed it into my pc running win7X64bit, My question is, can I, or how do I move my itunes music /photos etc from my old laptop drive to my current C:// drive?
Cheers

If the songs are purchased from itunes they need to be authorized to play on the new machine, before they will play, or be transferred to your ipod. Play one of the purchased songs in itunes, if the new machine is not yet authorized it will bring up a box asking you to enter the itunes account info used to purchase the music. Enter this info and the song should start playing. All songs purchased with that account will now play/transfer from that computer. If you have used multiple accounts to purchase music then each different account will have to be authorized on the new machine.

Transferring from Old HDD to SSD

So, while I'm not a beginner with software development on Linux or using standard UNIX tools, I am very new with ArchLinux. I've been running a setup of mine for a few months on a hard drive in my old Fujitsu T5010 laptop. I bought a Crucial 256 GB SSD and installed it into the laptop.
If you don't want to wade through stuff, skip through the 'My Journey' down to 'My Problem'.
I tried following this guide:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mi … w_hardware
My Journey:
Using rsync, I made a backup of what I thought was a collection of files that were from installations of packages, my edits to configuration files, etc. I've had my misgivings about this method, but followed through with the suggestion on the wiki article.
Anyway, attempt one, I use a net installation and install the barebones (just the base packages) along with pmount and rsync. My backup of my HDD was made to an external HDD I had sitting around in NTFS format (probably not a good idea). So, after ArchLinux was up and running happily, I used pmount to mount my external HDD and rsync to transfer things back to my machine. This caused ArchLinux to not be able to access my SSD on boot up and quite a few other issues that I should have written down... but didn't.
So, attempt two, I wipe the SSD again and install ArchLinux. This time, I was going to start by restoring the home directory of my main user account, rcsvt. Of course, it was late at night and I pointed it at my root directory by mistake causing a ton of junk to be thrown in it. Not thinking properly, I reformatted... again.
So, attempt three, ArchLinux is set up and the home directory of rcsvt is successfully copied and I readded the account with adduser, allowing it to not copy over the skeleton files and instead use the existing ones. Things seemed to be okay. I had also followed the suggestion of using the following code to get a list of packages to reinstall:
$ pacman -Qqe | grep -vx "$(pacman -Qqm)" > Packages
$ pacman -Qqm > Packages.aur
# xargs -a Packages pacman -S --noconfirm --needed
My Problem:
Alright, so, what is my actual problem? Well, I have the feeling that permissions for some of the files copied (or installed with the packages) might be off. Or, maybe it's the permissions of my user account. This is been made especially clear when I've tried to use cabal to install xmobar from scratch to include extra plugins that I used with my configuration. Here's the example:
Log from rcsvt
Log from root
This seems to work with root permissions, but not with the user rcsvt. On my old HDD, my user account was able to do this with no issues.
So, is there something that stands out that I've done wrong by using rsync to copy over my /home/rcsvt directory and reinstalling all of my old packages using the list I generated? I'd really, really hate to have to wipe my system again if it's gone bonky with permissions... but it just doesn't seem like anything would have affected it.
Is there a better way to do this so that my new SSD has the same setup as my old HDD? I know that directly transferring everything is a terrible idea because of changes in hardware... so, I'm at a loss as to what could be done aside from a file backup, which seems to have not worked nearly as well as I would have hoped. I've still got the old HDD, by the way, and a cable to convert SATA to USB. So, I can hook it up to my machine, if that gives me any options.
I've read that NTFS has issues with file permissions; so, should I use rsync directly from my old HDD that was ext4 if I connect it with a SATA to USB?
Other information:
Using visudo, I uncommented the wheel permissions for sudo with no password needed so my user account of rcsvt could use sudo without having to type in a password each time. Aside from that, I haven't made any attempts to alter other files back to the way they were on my old system. As for the old system, I barely edited any files aside from adding some startup modules and editing the global vimrc file.
I really wish I could run my old system as it was because it had everything just where I wanted it.

For future reference, I just did this last week and it was just:
1. Boot into live cd
2. Mount both drives
3. format ssd to ext4
4. use cp -a to copy everything from the hdd to the ssd
5. setup grub with the ssd
and that was it.
Now the thing is, it seems you may have done that rsync without preserving the owner/permissions and stuff. But you're saying you haven't wiped your old hdd yet right?
Yeah, I've still got it. By everything, do you literally mean from the root directory (not /root/ but /)? Wouldn't that cause a lot of issues? If not, I'm willing to give it a shot. I'll just have to remember to update fstab again.
lemons wrote:I'm not sure if this would work but could creating the same users on the new hard drive possibly work?
I actually did that as the only user I had on the old drive was rcsvt. There seems to be something of issue with either that account's directory or the way the packages were installed from my list.

Best method to assign old itunes library on old hdd to new computer with new itunes software on ssd.

Hi everyone,
I put an old windows xp desktop to rest that had all my itunes software and files on it. I pulled the 3.5 internall hdd with the xp os and all the itunes program software and itunes music files from this old computer. I just added into my new computer via sata cables and its showing and i have access to it. I have an ssd as my main drive on my main new computer. This is where windows 7 pro is sitting. Ive never had itunes on this computer. Im wondering if it is as easy as the below;
1. install itunes on the ssd c: drive
2. hold down shift while opening itunes for the first time
3. point to the library.itl file on the old 3.5 internall hdd
Will itunes then always see and link to this itl file on my old hdd and work fine? My concerns are;
1. does it matter that this old hdd has a windows os on it along with the itunes program and all its associated files/ folder
2. i dont want itunes to start copying all those music files from the old hdd to my ssd. this would crash my ssd, as its not very large.
3. if the above works fine will my ipod when first mounted sync up fine?
4. are i do the hold down shift thing, what settings should i change in itunes? i know ill have to auth the computer. but how about organization settings?
And final question. I plan on using this old hdd just to store itunes music. I plan on deleting all the other folders, program files etc. Everything but the itunes folder. Is this safe? Should i leave certain windows os files on the hdd as to not disturb necessary processes?
Thanks!

Still no luck on this. Would it be easier to migrate the iTunes across using migration assistant? Is it possible to migrate it across while making it save the migrated library to the second eHDD (I would erase the copy of the library on that drive before doing so)
The PB is a G4 867 with firewire 400 (but only UBS1) and running 10.3.9 (not sure what version iTunes) - I can daisy chain it to the mini's FW800 with couple of external drives I have.
I have held off using migration assistant as all the files and stuff I want is on the eHDD and I don't want any unnecessary legacy items from the PB getting onto the mini.

Warning! Using SuperDuper to clone from an HDD to an SSD might seriously da

WARNING! USING SUPERDUPER TO CLONE FROM AN HDD TO AN SSD MIGHT SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE HEALTH OF YOUR SSD!
This is the new thread which I referred to when replying to:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2274972&start=0&tstart=0
I used SuperDuper to clone from a VelociRaptor 300GB HDD to an OCZ Agility EX SLC SSD, with disastrous results.
To save me the time of rewriting all the events please refer to the following emails and online submissions:
(Biltan-Wales - 21 Dec 2009 - 11.02 GMT):-
After reading several very favourable product reviews of the above SSD, I have just purchased one from Aria Technology Ltd., to use as a boot drive for my (early 2009) 8-Core 2.93GHz Intel Xeon Nehalem desktop workstation.
Also, prior to purchase of an OCZ SSD, I posted a question on Apple's Discussions' Forum:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2263023&tstart=0
From the response to this, and from reading several other threads regarding SSDs, I found that several Mac Pro owners are using OCZ SSDs as boot drives, and in some cases employing up to 3 of them.
I received my Agility EX from Aria on 16th. December, and yesterday afternoon I decided to set up my boot drive and 4 drive RAID 0, as described in: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2263023&tstart=0
First of all I used SuperDuper to clone from my VelociRaptor 300GB drive in Bay 1, to my original Apple (WD) 640GB drive in Bay 2.
Then I removed the original Apple drive, and installed it in an ONNTO dataTale TQ-M12H external single enclosure, using a Firewire 800 interface connection. Next I selected this as my boot drive to check it would boot OK, restarted my system, and there was no problem.
So my next step was to install the Agility EX, and another 3 VelociRaptor 300GB drives, in the Mac pro workstation.
First, I reselected VelociRaptor 1 as my boot drive, so that I could use SuperDuper to clone to the Agility EX.
The Agility EX was installed in the lower of the 2 optical bays, and was connected to the pre-wired SATA and power cable, and the VelociRaptors were placed in hard drive bays 2, 3, and 4.
I then started up the Mac Pro, and there were 4 message boxes on the desktop, requesting that the drives should be initialised. So then I used Disk Utility to initialise the 4 drives. The SSD was named "Agility EX Boot", and the others "VelociRaptor 2", VelociRaptor 3, and VelociRaptor 4". The Mac system accepted all 4, and mounted desk top icons for each drive. I cannot remember the exact figure, but the Agility EX was listed as approx. 64GB in Disk Utility after its initialisation. All 4 VelociRaptors are shown as 300.07GB. All drives were formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
The next stage was to use SuperDuper to clone from VelociRaptor 1 to the Agility EX Boot drive.
Everything was fine until 28.00GB had been copied, and then nothing more would copy. The total to be cloned was just under 30GB, which should not have been a problem with a SSD disk capacity of approx. 64GB, but everything was frozen at that point - exactly 28.00GB!
Eventually, my only option was to stop the process, and quit Super Duper.
Then I restarted the system to try again, but this is where there is a real problem now!
My system does not recognise the Agility EX at all now! Also, it is no longer listed in Disk Utility!
The system does not even acknowledge its existence! It is not even shown on the desktop at start-up, whereas I thought that perhaps there might have been another message box requesting that it should be reinitialised.
I tried disconnecting and reconnecting everything - all drives, interface connections, power cables etc., but to no avail!
This morning I tried this again, but still I cannot get my system to even acknowledge the Agility EX, let alone list it!
So at the moment I am still using VelociRaptor 1 as my boot drive, and, in fact, as my main drive, because I am reluctant to use it with the 3 other VelociRaptors as a 4 drive RAID 0 set up until I get this problem with the Agility EX resolved.
(OCZ - 22 Dec 2009 - 18.29 GMT):-
Cloning from a HDD to an SSD is very problematic. I strongly recommend against doing this. Instead you will want to just install normally onto the SSD. You can clone from SSD to SSD, or from HDD to HDD, but going from one to the other can cause issues.
Try disconnecting the drive from the computer for an hour or so. This will allow all power in the drive to fully discharge. This is a way of resetting the drive that can usually recover the drive. Then plug the drive back in. Does the drive show up again?
If so, delete the partition on the drive, then create a new partition and then install the OS onto it clean rather than clone the OS onto the drive. That should resolve the issues you are having.
(Biltan-Wales - 23 Dec 2009 - 16.19 GMT):-
Thank you for your advice.
I have now disconnected the Agility EX SSD, and removed it from my Mac Pro's lower optical bay.
As Christmas is imminent, and I will not be using my system very much over the next few days, I will leave the drive for 4 to 5 days to allow ample time for all the power to discharge.
Then I will reconnect it, and I will let you know whether or not the drive is recognised by my system.
I was not aware that cloning from a HDD to an SSD could be problematic. Several threads on the Apple Support Discussion Forum have recommended using SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner for this purpose. SuperDuper is the preferred option of most Forum members, whereas Lloyd Chambers (diglloyd.com), author of "macperformanceguide.com", uses Carbon Copy Cloner to clone his HDD boot drives to his Intel and Crucial SSDs.
After the Agility EX had been set up as my system boot drive, my intention was to use SuperDuper to clone from it to my original Apple (WD) HDD, now in an external enclosure with Firewire 800 interface, and then use SuperDuper's Smart Update for regular backups, so that I always had an up to date spare boot drive for the OS and applications.
The current VelociRaptor 1 boot drive would then be erased, and I would then use the Mac OS Disk Utility to create a 4 drive software RAID ) with the other 3 VelociRaptors, and this would be backed up using Time Machine to my existing WD My Book Studio Edition II 2TB External Hard Drive.
Please correct me if I have misunderstood your advice, but are you saying that I should only use another SSD, and not my original Apple (WD) HDD, as my back-up external boot drive? I don't know of any other Mac users who are using SSDs for that purpose, possibly because of the prohibitive cost of doing so.
I am more than happy to follow your advice to reinstall the Mac OS and my applications cleanly onto the Agility EX, and, in fact, I did exactly that with my first VelociRaptor HDD, before I had SuperDuper. However, that would still leave me with the problem of how to set up and maintain an external back-up system boot drive, without incurring the expense of another SSD. Any suggestions please?
Anyway the most important matter is the existing problem, and I am hoping that following your advice will resolve this.
I will contact you again early next week. In the meantime have a very enjoyable Christmas!
(OCZ - 24 Dec 2009 - 00.25 GMT):-
If the image is of an HDD and that image is then cloned onto an SSD that does tend to be problematic. I do not recommend doing this, as an image of the HDD somewhat regularly does fail to copy onto an SSD and still remain functional or fast.
You can store the image file on any sort of drive. Storing the image file is fine, as that is just a digital file, so the storage medium doesn't matter. Its actually applying that image to a drive is where the problems often occur.
You can image from a HDD to a HDD just fine, or an SSD to an SSD just fine, but going from one to the other is problematic enough that I recommend not doing this. Sometimes it works just fine, but other times it can fail catastrophically to the point of even bricking the drive. To error on the side of caution I recommend just going a clean install on the new SSD.
Once you have that clean install done you can then take an image of that SSD and image on to other SSD's, or store the image on a HDD for backup purposes.
(Biltan-Wales - 29 Dec 2009 - 13.16 GMT)
Thank you for your last email.
Further to your previous email, and my reply of 23/12/2009. this morning I reconnected the Agility EX SSD.
However, unfortunately, the drive has not showed up again on my system. There is no icon for it on the desktop, nor is it listed in Disk utility.
When I checked Serial-ATAS in my Mac Pro's System Profiler, all 6 Intel ICH10 AHCI are listed in the Serial-ATA Device Tree, but, whereas all my other drives are sub-listed, there is nothing underneath the ICH10 AHCI for the lower optical bay.
As the drive has had 6 days to discharge and reset, it would appear that it has not recovered.
Where do I go from here?
I am still awaiting a reply from OCZ, but that is not surprising, because of the different time zones and the Christmas?New Year holiday period.
In the meantime does anybody else have any ideas, please?

Hi thanon,
"So the SSD is not visible, not even in disk utility, even after a restart ?":-
No.
"Check the log of SuperDuper (Window-Show Log); warnings are in red, I think.":-
This is a copy of the log, but it only refers to the original Mac (WD) drive as the Target Volume and it only lists the last Smart Update. There is no record of the original cloning to the same drive on 21st. December, nor of the interim Smart Updates. There is no record logged at all for the OCZ Agility EX SSD, despite the unsuccessful cloning attempt on 21st. December:-

"Maybe turn the MP off, pull the power cord and disconnect all external devices but keyboard and mouse, disconnct the SSD, reconnect and start MP":-
I have tried this several times without any success.
"Also, make sure no programs are running during cloning, and leave the computer alone.":-
SuperDuper was the only program running when I cloned firstly to the Mac (WD) HDD, and secondly to the Agility EX on 21st. December.
Also everything was disconnected before I removed and transferred the Mac HDD to an external enclosure.
After I had checked that the Mac HDD had been cloned successfully, everything was disconnected again before I fitted the Agility Ex and the other 3 VelociRaptors in the lower optical drive bay, and drive bays 2,3 & 4 respectively.
I used a Lindy anti-static Service Kit throughout the whole process. I purchased this originally for when I installed 16GB of Kingston RAM, an ATI Radeon HD4870, and my first VelociRaptor

How do I move pictures from old iphone to new iphone

How do I move pictures from old iphone to new iphone

If you want to transfer your camera roll photos, along with text messages and other data and settings from your old phone to your new one, back up the old phone then restore the backup to your new one (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109). If you only want to transfer the photos, import them from your old phone to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, then put them in a folder and sync them to your new phone by selecting the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing. (Be aware that photos synced to your phone using iTunes can only be deleted later by syncing them off again. They can't be deleted directly on the phone.)

How to transfer iBooks books & PDFs from old iPad to new iPad?

(Well, it seems my title got truncated; originally it read: How to transfer iBooks books & PDFs from old iPad to new iPad?)
I've recently gotten an iPad Air to replace my previous iPad 2. I have a bunch of books and PDFs in iBooks on the old iPad, and want to transfer them to the new iPad.
A search of Apple Support informs me that anything I've purchased from iBooks can be downloaded at any time to any of my devices (works like Amazon's Kindle system, apparently), but nearly all the content I have in iBooks on the iPad I've downloaded from other sources, so it won't be in my iBooks Store account (I might have bought one book there).
I've also seen several instructions on how to copy all my data from the old iPad to the new via Backup & Restore, but that seems to require restoring the new iPad to factory setup, which would delete everything I have on it now – including a bunch more books I've gotten since I started using the new iPad. And I don't want to copy everything, only the books/PDFs (the new iPad has everything I want, except for the books).
Since there seems to be no way to transfer files directly from one iPad to the other, it seems it must be done via iTunes on my MacBook Pro (and I want to copy all the books/PDFs to the computer anyway). So I connected the iPad 2 to my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.4) and opened iTunes (11.3.1). Then clicked on the iPad's name in the sidebar to the left, and on Books below it. I see a list of the books on the iPad. I check the little boxes by all their names to select them (not sure if that's necessary, but it seems like a good idea), then click on the Sync button at the lower right, to the right of the bar at the bottom of the window with colored bands showing memory usage on the iPad. A message appears saying "The app 'iBooks' was not installed on the iPad '[name]' because the app could not be found."
But iBooks is already on the iPad; I have it open and see the list of books in it, which matches the list shown in iTunes. The message has a "More Information" button; I click that and it opens an Apple Support article titled "iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open": "Learn what to do if you see one of these issues with an app you downloaded from the App Store on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: The app unexpectedly quits; The app stops responding; You can’t open the app." But none of these apply; the iBooks app is on the iPad, and works fine there.
The article suggests: (1) Restart the App. I've done that, no help. (2) Restart your device. Done that, no help. (3) Update your device software and your apps. The iPad is running iOS 6.1.3, iBooks 3.1.3; not the latest versions, no, but I'd rather not update it to newer, bigger, more power-hungry versions if I don't have to. Is it that iTunes 11 doesn't work with iOS 6? I haven't seen this stated anywhere.
So instead I click the OK button on the message, but nothing further happens, so far as I can tell: None of the books/PDFs on the iPad (about 380MB) appear in iBooks on the MacBook Pro.
I click on "Books" in the row of words across the top of the iTunes window, and it shows me the single PDF presently in iBooks on the MacBook Pro. I click the box by "Sync Books", and a message appears: "Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones from this iPad and sync with this iTunes library?" Well, no, that's exactly what I DON'T want to do. I don't want to erase the 380MB of books and PDFs on the iPad and replace them with the single PDF now in iBooks on the MacBook Pro. I want to copy the books from the iPad 2 to iTunes, so I can copy them back to the new iPad Air (if, God willing, I can figure out how to do that without erasing the books now on the iPad Air).
I've been working with Macintosh computers for over 26 years. It's always been a fairly simple process to copy files from one computer to another. I don't want to "sync" all the data (address book, email, God knows what else) on the iPad with the corresponding information on the MacBook Pro – especially if that will erase everything on the iPad (which has information not on the MacBook Pro, e.g. 380MB of books). I just want to copy the books and PDFs in iBooks from the old iPad to the MacBook Pro, then to the new iPad, adding them to the books on the new iPad, so I don't lose anything.
Can anybody give me a clue?

Transferring your prepaid cellular data account depends on your carrier. AT&T lets you move it yourself when you go to Cellular Data in Settings and log into your account with your previous AT&T user name and password. For iPads with Sprint service, you can set up an account on the new iPad and contact Sprint Customer Care (888-211-4727 and go through the menus) to deactivate the old plan and get credit for unused service. For Verizon, call the company’s customer service number for mobile broadband support (800-786-8419) and ask to have your account transferred.

I had a data migration done from old iMac to new iMac, how do I use that file to find my old email contacts, Safari bookmarks, etc ?

I recently had a data migration from old iMac to new iMac 11.2
How do I use that data file to get old email contacts, Safari bookmarks, etc ?

FireWire cables are dirt cheap and that's how you should be doing the migration. You might have to start over, wiping the new machine's HD, and restoring the software as described in the Everything Mac manual that came with it. See Best Practices and Setup new Mac for more details.
