Switching from 1.67 TI to another 1.67 TI but they will never be together.

Hi All,
I'm switching from my Old 1.67 TI to a new (supplied by Apple - no charge!!) Powerbook (maybe a MacBook). The only problem - I have to send in my old PB before I receive my new one?
I want to make the transition seemless and I've heard mention of cloning my old system then moving it to the new computer. Any tips, threads or links you can refer me to?
I have a external 250GB FW to back up onto...
Thanks in advance!
D
Powerbook G4 Ti 1Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

Download "Back-Up 3" from .mac and then back up your Home Folder, Personal settings and anything else you want to keep to your external drive.
When you get your new computer, copy Back-Up onto that one and do a Restore using Back Up
You should be good to go

  • How do you switch from one iTunes account to another on your apple tv?

    How do you switch from one iTunes account to another on your apple tv?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    I assume you do mean a different account and not simply a different iTunes library. Unfortunately, in order to switch accounts, you would need to log out and log in to the second account.

  • HT201320 How can I switch from one email user to another?

    How can I switch from one email account to another?

    You have to select between the two accounts in the mail app.
    Say for instance that you are reading an email in your XYZ email account. Tap the button in the upper left corner of the mail app to back out all the way to where you can see all of the email accounts.... Tap InBox, then tap XYZ email Account and that will take you back to the main MailBoxes window.
    Is that what you want to know? There is no way to simply "toggle" between the two accounts.

  • How to keep Itunes playing music when switching from one user account to another?

    On my old pc, that running XP, itunes would continue playing when I was switching from one user account to another.
    Now I have a new PC running win8 and the music stops playing when I switch from one user account to another. I think Itunes is still running on the user that is not active, but the music is not coming out of the speekers.
    Does anyone know how I can get the win8 pc to do as the old XP machine?

    Hello over here,
    The steps below detail how to place an input chooser that will allow for the adjustment of your keyboard layout while on the login screen.
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    Click Users & Groups to display the pane (or choose User & Groups from the View menu).
    If the lock icon in the lower-left corner of the window is closed, click it, then enter the name and password of an administrator to unlock it.
    Click Login Options.
    Select the "Show Input menu in login window" checkbox.
    From the Apple menu, choose Log Out.
    At the login window, click the Input menu (shows the name of the currently selected input source next to a keyboard icon) in the upper-right corner of the screen, then select the desired input source or keyboard layout. If you don't see the input source you are looking for, move the pointer over Other Input Sources, then select the input source from the complete list that appears.

    Hi,
    How to switch from one Data base to another data base if first data base server like in restoring,blocking,network disconnected state.
    Please help out for the same.

    Sounds like a problem for forums/support from the DB provider, as this problem is normally solved through some form of HA provided by the DB (or some cluster software, but still not Java) with, normally, a shared (virtual) IP address.

  • I seem to have 2 Apple IDs, one on my MacBook Pro and another on my devices.  If I switch from MobileMe to iCloud on my Mac (under the apple logo) will my devices work and sync in iCloud.  I have no idea how I go 2 IDs

    Can I get rid of one  ID?  How do I do that?

    one on my MacBook Pro
    That's not an Apple ID. That is your admin account which you can view in System Preferencs > Accounts or Users & Groups.
    If I switch from MobileMe to iCloud on my Mac (under the apple logo) will my devices work and sync in iCloud.  I have no idea how I go 2 IDs
    Just use your current Apple ID when you setup your iCloud account that you use for your devices.

  • I have zinced songs from my PC to my iPad  and it has copied all the songs on my pc but some are showing very faintly on my iPad and these songs will not play. I have tried to delete them but they will not stay hilighted and show delete to enable me to do

    Can anyone help me to delete the faintly listed songs on my iPad which I have transferred from my Pc but they will not play on my iPad.

    Thanks for trying to help me. 
    First, in you reply (and i've read this elsewhere), you imply that i need to check a box that says "manually manage music."  OK, great, but where do i find such box?  Is that on the iphone or in itunes?  Also, i am afraid of losing what i already do have on my phone.  I have about 150 songs, some of which were purchesed thru itunes, but most of which i "dropped and dragged" from my older computer with the older version of itunes.  When i go to itunes with my iphone plugged in, all of the boxes are grayed out, except one at the top that says "Sync Music".  When i check this box, i get an error warning that says "Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones from this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?  Music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones synced to [name of my iPhone] from other iTunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this iTunes library." 
    So, i have over 3000+ songs in my itunes library on my computer... obviously that isn't going to fit on my phone. So then, what is going to happen?  I'll lose everything that is already on my phone PLUS it will NOT be able to sync? 
    Is now the time to buy a Zune?!?  For the company that is supposedly "user friendly", Apple has really managed to screw this one up. 
    Thanks, John

    FCPX crashed and I reported it here. Tom Wolsky suggested I trash prefs, perform an fsck, reboot and redownload FCPX from the App store. The reboot was okay but Safari will not let me access the App Store to redownload FCP. I'm running 10.6.8 but the App Store icon is grayed out. I get a "Safari doesn't recognize addresses starting with macappstore."
    How do I get to the App Store to get FCPX back? I'm using the Trial version now.

    How are you linking to the App Store from Safari? From this page?

    File Sharing over Bluetooth is not a feature of iOS devices. iOS does not include the required Bluetooth profiles to allow this. You cannot add this feature, so you may as well stop trying.

  • TS2972 I have 46 movies downloaded from apple on my windows 7 PC I can only see 32 of them on my apple tv, I keep trying to share on my computer but they will not connect, any ideas?

    I have 46 movies downloaded from apple on my windows 7 PC I can only see 32 of them on my apple tv, I keep trying to share on my computer but they will not connect, any ideas? Sometimes I can connect though computer and get all my movies but usually I  can not connect though the network.

    thank you Diesel vdub  this helps but I just need to clarify - I understand about copying the intire folder ( cool thanks ) for the second part though, you are saying I can not do this if the 2nd computer does not have internet access? ( which you seem to be saying - bother! )
    many thanks

    I lost the Icons from my 4s 6.1.2 IOS I can see them in Itunes but they will not restore to the Phone

    What icons are you talking about?
    Are you talking about apps that you've downloaded?  if so just sync them back to your phone using iTunes.

  • My iPad was stolen in brazil.  i cannot get the manufacturer id number from my iPhone or my macbook air....they are all linked together though.  any suggestions on how and if i can possibly retrieve this and thus locate the device? thanks julie

    Launch iTunes, go to the Preferences, select Devices, and hover your cursor over the backup file for the iPod. That should show you the serial number, IMEI, and possibly the MEID.
    The manufacturer ID will not help you locate the iPad, though. If you set up the Find My iPad service in the Settings prior to the iPad going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPad is turned on, connected to a WiFi or 3G network, and has not had the Find My iPad service disabled or the iPad been completely restored). 
    If you did not set up Find My iPad, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPad (the iTunes Store, for instance). 
    Regards.

  • Sent photos from iPhone to email and messenger on iPad intercepted but now will not let me see them. Help?

    Sent photos from iPhone to email and messenger on iPad intercepted but now will not let me see them. Help?

    If you sent the photos directly from the Photos app, it is quite possible that you selected Message rather than Mail when you emailed them to yourself. I assume that is how they ended up in the Messages app. I also assume that you no longer have the old phone or you could just email them to yourself again. Is that a correct assumption? If you cannot access the photos on the old phone any longer, and you can see them in the messages app randomly, try closing the Messages app completely and reset the device and then see if the photos reappear.
    In order to close the Messages app, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to Messages and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
