Suitable ethernet cable for my new Imac 27-inch iMac 3.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 and old imac 1 GHZ PowerPC G4

I am looking for a Suitable ethernet cable for my new Imac 27-inch iMac 3.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 (Mavericks 10.9.4) & old imac 1 GHZ PowerPC G4 (10.4.11) for transfering files, documents, photos into my new intel mac from my old power PC imac.
Can anyone please advise me which suitable ethernet cable would be suitable for tasks.
Many thanks
Niall

Note, the iMac G4 1 Ghz only supports 10/100 base-T. Firewire is up to 4 faster with a cable such as this one:

and adapted to this one:

http://www.macsales.com/ may offer cheaper cables.
And since you are migrating from a G4, be sure to make your files portable to newer data formats before transferring. Old Appleworks/Clarisworks files are not compatible:

I bought a new iMac today. I'm using migration assistant to move all my software, but the time just keeps getting longer. It says connect an Ethernet cable for faster data transfer. I did, but that doesn't seem to help. Any ideas?

m1doc,
Are you migrating from a Mac or a MS Window machine? Either way you probably should be in touch with AppleCare, you have 90 days of free AppleCare telephone support. They can usually help on issues like this. If you don't know the phone number please use http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 to help find the number in your country.

I transferred settings and files from old MacBook air to new one. New one now gives popup about failing to connect to server (old iMac). the new Mac air and old iMac have never met and are 2000 miles apart. How do I stop the popups?

Change your settings in Sharing preferences, for one, and remove the server out of the Finder's sidebar. Obviously, this is the result of transfering all your other computer's preferences to your new computer.

The new iMac 21.5-inch Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 3.1GHz, 8 GBSDRAM, 1 TB Fusion Drive, has Haswell processor inside ?

I want to buy for my new office, 2 pieces of iMac 21.5-inch Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 3.1GHz
8 GBSDRAM, 1 TB Fusion Drive.
I wan to be sure 100%, that this model has inside the new fourth generation Haswell processor.
I don't find anywhere "Haswell" write in the specification.
Please advice!

If it is a Late 2013 model it has the Haswell CPU. Right you won't but Apple only sells the latest models on the main Mac store website and all others, last year models, get move to the Refurbished area or are sold off to Apple store or Apple authorized resellers.

Old Entourage is POP and new Mavericks MAIL is IMAP I believe. I don;t know how to export in the forms you mention. Frances

How do I transfer contents of hard drive on PPC iMac G4 to a new quad-core Intel Core i5

         Although my PPC iMac G4 still works OK, I am beginning to realise the time has probably come to get a current model in order to keep up with all the advances that have happened since I bought it about 8 years ago: I will probably get the new quad-core Intel Core i5.
         As this will only be my second computer, I am wondering how I can transfer all the stuff on my hard drive onto a new computer and how easy it will be,given the apparently outdated connections on my G4 like USB 1,and possibly other things I don't know about.I am running 10.4.11.
          Any tips gratefully received.

As Allen indicates, Setup Assistant appears automatically, since you do have firewire, the transfer should be speedy, depending on how much data are on the G4. The firewire on your G4 is FW400, your new Mac has FW800, but you can get an inexensive adaptor that will allow the connection, since the ports are different.
You don't need an external now, but I strongly advise getting one, with a drive as large or larger than your new Mac, you should clone/back up frequently, I use SuperDuper! which will allow automatic backups.

I have new MacBook Pro with OS 10.10. My MAIL program was working but suddenly won't recognize my VERIZON FIOS server. FYI, the MAIL programs on my iPAD and old iMAC continue to work. No answer yet from Apple Support HELP!!!

Additional Information.
On my Mail Accounts setup it was set to "verizon.net" on incoming.
Now it faintly reads, "incoming.yahoo.verizon.net"
This came up automatically .... I did not do it and I cannot change it

Can I uninstall FCE 4 from and Old iMac, and reinstall in a new iMac

I have and Old iMac G5, last year I bought FCE 4, and now, I'm changing to a new iMac Intel Core processor i5.
Can i uninstall the FCE 4 and Install it to my new iMac Intel core Processor i5?
Is really urgent.

legrma -
Yes, you can do this. Just uninstall FCE from your old G5 iMac; then install it on your new i5 iMac.
The license allows you to install FCE on 1 desktop Mac and 1 laptop Mac as long as you own both and do not use FCE on both at the same time. You can move it from Mac to Mac as long as you abide by the license terms.

So What is the Max Ram Support ?
Officially 16GB however OWC has advised it will support 32GB. BTW you can trust OWC, they are a reliable vendor that specializes in Macs. They test everything the either make or sell. Also they have terrific support and will ship internationally.

Best RAM to buy for a 27" 2.93GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7?

Dear all
I'm brand new to Apple computers and would therefore appreciate any advice you can offer relating to RAM.
I will soon be purchasing a 27" 2.93GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 complete with 2TB hard drive.
I also plan on purchasing 2x4gb RAM sticks separately but from reviews that I've read I see that not all ram is created equally...
Thus far I have discovered the following brands: Kingston, Komputerbay and Crucial. I would be most obliged if someone could let me know what the best brand is for the ram... I have found Komputerbay to be the cheapest but I've read a review from someone who said they didn't find it to be a good performer so that made me think it's best to pay a bit more.
Thank you for reading and I look forward to hearing your replies
Kind regards
Kate
P.S. I'm based in the UK

Dear all
Thank you for your prompt responses - most appreciated!
Roger, I was particularly pleased with your answer as last night (after much internet research) I decided to go with Crucial... They were also offering a 10% off 'one day only' discount which seemed too good to miss! I purchased the RAM for a good price: £198 including discount for 2x4gb sticks - the same RAM averaged £250 on Amazon.
I will be ordering the iMac on Friday. Doubtless I will be back online thereafter to clarify that I have installed the RAM correctly; I haven't ever installed RAM before but given how easy it looks and the cost savings involved I thought I'd have a crack at it!
In total I will be running with 12gb RAM - no idea whether I actually need that much or not but I'd rather buy the best of everything from the outset so that I don't need to tweak things at a later date... Also thought a high amount of RAM would be advantageous given the screen size etc.
Again, thanks to you all.

Looking at buying an 3.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 iMac.....NEED HELP!

Ok so I'm thinking about switching to Mac from PC and I need help. Here is what I plan on getting:
3.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
8GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM
2TB Serial ATA Drive
AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2GB GDDR5
My questions are:
1. How long has this configuration been out? i.e. how soon will Apple upgrade the iMac to better CPU and GUI?
2. Can you add a SSD later?
3. Without being able to add a New GUI (and other upgrades you can do with a PC) how long would this iMac last with the way technology advances?
4. What problems if any are the iMac experiencing right now?

I guess I should rephrase the question. How long has the 3.4 i7 and AMD Radeon 6970M been available in the iMac? What I don't wont to do is get the 3.4 i7 and next week a 3.6 comes out etc. I read the same thing from http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#iMac
This machine was released in May 2011. The configuration you are quoting is currently state of the art for an iMac. Without knowing how you use your computer it's extremely difficult to say how long it will be useful. If you are professional musician or filmmaker where you tax the CPU's capabilities then spending the money when a significantly faster machine is released should make little difference to you. However if use the machine for basics like surfing the web, e-mail and some MS Office work this machine is overkill now and will be for many years. If you use the machine primarily as a gaming platform then you would enjoy it as long as the GPU keeps up with your gaming demands.
So the question back to you is how do you intend to use the computer?

I've only had my new iMac for a week and today when I rebooted I got a gray circle with a line through it. I've already done the command-r and used Disk Utility to Repair Disk and Repair Disk Permissions... over and over. As a last resort I even reinstalled Mountain Lion with the OS X Internet Recover. No such luck. After it still booted with the gray circle with a line through it.
I was able to use "Scan Image for Restore" to see that all my files are on the hard drive.
What should I do?

Thanks for the response, mende1!
Unfortunately, I also previously tried booting with the Shift key. Nothing. It acted like I wasn't even pressing the Shift key. I tried it multiple times. Sorry, I forgot to say that in my initial post.
I just tried the Option key and selected Macintosh HD (the only option). I still got the gray circle with the line though it.
I've already spent at least 30-40 hours installing all my software and transferring over all my pics and music. I can't "erase the disk and install OS X again".
