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?

Replacing HD With SSD, Need To Install OS X (Not Clone Old HD) On New SSD

Hello All!!
I am getting a new Samsung 830 series 256GB SSD today which I am going to put in my 2011 (late year) MacBook Pro 15". I would like to put the new SSD in with a fresh installation of OS X (I don't want to clone my old hard drive). Can anyone please outline the steps to do this or put a link to a web page that explains it in nice simple terms?
I have tried searching around but I can't seem to find any page that is helpful. I did find one website that explained how to put the OS X on a USB flash drive. They said to download OS X from the App Store but when I checked it was like $27. I don't want to pay for a newer version of OS X I just want to put a fresh install of the version I already have (10.7.5) on the new SSD.
Thank you!

Believe it or not, a clone of your old boot drive onto a blank powered, Disk Utility formatted GUID / OS X Extended (Journaled )external drive is the safest choice.
This gives you something to boot the computer with in case of trouble with the SSD, when formatting it and reverse cloning everything back on.
I know what you said, you want a clean install of OS X. However in 10.7 and later to install OS X fresh needs the Recovery HD partiton to be booted from, on the boot drive, to download 10.7 from Apple's servers.
So the object here is to clone your old boot drive clone to the formatted SSD of everything, OS X and Recovery Partition (plus any Apple hidden gems), then when that's completed, later boot into Recovery HD and wipe just the Macintosh HD partiton clean and clean install OS X there again.
There is only one software that can do this and it's Carbon Copy Cloner. Superdupes can't clone Recovery HD.
Just use the CCC's default setting to clone one drive to another. Hold the option key down while booting to enter Startup Manager, where you can select which drive you want to boot from.
To first format any blank or soon ot be overwrtitten drive, use Disk Utility to select the entire drive and Partition: Options: GUID and OS X ext. jorun., as the format.
To erase the Macnitosh HD partition, hold command r boot from the SSD to enter Recovery HD and select the Macintosh HD partiton in Disk Utility to erase it. Then quit and floow the instructions to reinstall 10.7 fresh from Apple's servers.
There is plenty of good info here

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.

Clone Old HDD to New MacBook's HDD

I have a 2010 MBP that I have recently replaced with a mid-2012 MBP. I'll be going from a 250gb to 500gb. I'm nearly positive it was up to date with the latest software 10.8.3 or .4. I want to clone all the content onto my new MBP. Which way is best to go about this migration assitant? Carbon Copy Cloner?
Given I only have the HDD and a usb to sata cable. I would like my current system to be an exact copy of my old one with files, programs etc.
Please note that I also have a windows partition!

Connect the two using a Firewire cable. Boot the new computer into Target Disk Mode.

     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.

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.

I just purchased a new mac mini and would like to use my old dell monitor. I tried a HD to VGA adapter converter,it plugs in, but nothing shows on the monitor. Any suggestions? Thanks

What do you mean by "HD to VGA adapter converter"?
Do you mean have an HDMI to VGA adapter connected the the Mini's HDMI port?
Or maybe you plugged n the the included HDMI to DVI adapter and then connected a DVI to DVI adapter?
In either case that will not work since VGA is analog and the Mini's HDMI port is digital only.
You need to purchase a mini displayport to VGA adapter. It plugs into the Mini's Thunderbolt port.

TS1382 I have a ipod classic 160GB and it's not showing any music anymore, but there is still 7GB of memory being used, and I don't have it back up on my itunes, since I had to put a new hard drive on my computer. Any suggestion to find out whats on that

I have a ipod classic 160GB and it's not showing any music anymore, but there is still showing 7GB of memory being used, and I don't have it backed up on my itunes, since I had to put a new hard drive on my computer. Any suggestion to find out whats on that memory or to get it the music back, there is approximately over 1400 songs on it?

What is the memory being used by, is it Other? If it is, that means the iPod can no longer read the music, so it has put it all in "Other".
The usual fix for this is to allow the iPod to Sync with its iTunes Library. If that doesn't work, the next option is to Restore the iPod using the Restore command in iTunes, on the Device/Summary pane.
Unless you are very (very) lucky, I suspect that you are going to have to Restore your iPod. Restoring will remove everything form the iPod and put back onto it only what it finds in your iTunes Library, which you say is currently empty.
If you have to rebuild your Library after this issue, by adding all the music back again, this is going to be hard to hear, but for the future, you may want to consider always having a backup of your library. The easiset way to back the Library up is;
if the Library is small enough, burn it to a DVD, as digital files, not a "music CD".
If your Library is too large for a DVD, buy yourself an external hard drive and copy the Library onto the drive. Remember to update the backup every so often.

My laptop was stolen and I need to be able to connect my iPhone4 to the new laptop and transfer content (photos, mp3's, apps etc.) to the new laptop. I'm afraid to try a sync in case it deletes all the content off the iPhone. Any suggestions?

You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

A classic chicken/egg problem. I see this in the Apple TV manual:
You can also hold down Menu and Right for 6 seconds to pair Apple TV and the Apple Remote.
When you successfully pair your Apple Remote, Apple TV displays a chainlink symbol ( ) above a picture of a remote. Apple TV now works only with the paired remote.
You might have to change your screen name (kidding).
