Transfer from Palm IIIe to Mac OS X 10.6.2

I have a Palm IIIe. Recently I switched from a PC to a MAC OS X 10.6.2 (w/Snow Leopard). How do I transfer my addresses from the Palm IIIe to the Mac?

The supported Palm Desktop version does not work on Snow Leopard. Please look at this link for further details: http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/34115_en.html

Address book transfer from Palm 3x to Mac Address Book Lion

Have a vintage Palm3x synched with a vintage Dell Inspiron 8300 desktop computer using XP. Recently aquired a Mac Book Pro with the new Lion OS. Is there any way to transfer the address book and memos from the old machine to the new? Apple recommended trying to transfer via a flash drive using the .csv format. When I tried to export the data from the Palm Desktop OS 3.0.1 to the flash drive, I got a message: : "Export error, *.csv contains an invalid path". Heard from another source that Palm 3X is incompatible with Lion OS anyway, and to try to export to Microsoft Outlook on the old Dell first and then to attempt to synch with the Mac from Outlook...
Any ideas on how this might be done, and if so, what exact steps should I take? Should I still attempt to sync with Outlook with .csv format? Tried this, but couldn't find the appropriate folder to export to - under the C: drive, there were only about 6 or 8 options, none of which seemed to have anything to do with Outlook.

I tried going to the application support folder to get the address book to transfer from my iMac with Leopard to my Powerbook with Tiger. It didn't work for me either. So here's what I did and it worked like a charm:
Select all contacts in each separate group in your address book on your iMac and drag them individually to a thumb or flash drive. This will create a vcard for each of the groups. ( I had 8 groups). Plug the drive into your Powerbook, add the name of each group you are transferring, and drop each group into the proper group on the Address book. This essentially copies each V-Card from one computer to the other. If you have obsolete addresses on your Powerbook, they will be automatically updated. This may be too late to help you, but perhaps someone else may have the same problem.

Access Memos from Palm Z22 to Mac (10.5.4)

Is there a way I can sync my Palm to my Mac and then be able to access the Memos? I bought a keyboard for my Palm and used to use it to type notes in class (back when I had a PC and could access the Memos on the desktop) but there won't be much point if I can't transfer the Memos to my laptop. Any help?
Post relates to: Palm Z22

Hello!
To xfer those Memos from you PalmOS device to the Mac, you need to install the Palm Desktop 4.2.1 for Mac. You can find it here. Its virtually the same thing as the PC counterpart but with some subtle Mac-specific features.

Transfer from old to new Mac impossible

I can't transfer the information from old G5 to a new Mac Pro 8 core. Using T mode, as described, transfer doesn't occur after two hours at all. There is a window "Transferring information" but nothing happens. Using SuperDuper! or Migration Assistant from OS10.4.10 to copy the entire bootable volume from the external HD, is impossible. However, it's possible to copy the old volume to a second, non startup disk, but without libraries, which is worthless.
Do I have to manually transfer the libraries to the new computer in order to use the old applications? It's going to take for ever. I have no idea why the simple transfer from the old Mac to the new doesn't work as advertise.
Milan

When you booted up the new machine the first time, did you use the migration assistant? If not, you might want to try using the Restore disk and restore the Mac Pro to its factory state. Also, take a look at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25773 and A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs. Those should get you started in the right direction.

Using iPod for data transfer from windows to a Mac... is this possible?

ok here's the situation.
my room mate has a (video) iPod 30G colour screen and everything. she has downloaded a show (not from iTunes) on her laptop using windows. We want to use her iPod to transfer the data from that show onto my computer which is an iMac G5 Intel Core Duo.
We connected the iPod to my computer but it was not recognized. Is this because her iPod is formatted for Windows or is there possibly another reason?
if anyone could help that would be great.
thanks

From what I know, windows will not recognize the complicated data of a mac formatted device; hence not recognizing it. Macs can recognize a windows formated ipod though, so if you decide to reformat it on windows, then you can use it on both computers. If you dont though, looks like you are out of luck, sorry.
Hope I helped.

Transfer from Palm Relplayer to PC?

Hi all
About a year ago I loaded a CD into my palm.
Since then, the original CD has become scratched, so I thought I might transfer the file from my Palm back to PC and burn a new copy.
Can’t figure out how to do it though!!
Anyone out there ever manage this?
Thanks!

Do you have the SD card in the device still? If you do you can plug that SD card into your PC and pull the music off that way.

Transfer from palm to computer????

All of my datebook was erased from my computer when work did an upgrade. Is there a way to transfer the data back onto the computer or will have to retype in all appts and such?
Thanks!
Post relates to: Palm Z22

Hello Leenita and welcome to the Palm fourms.
Is the data still on your Z22? If it is, once Palm Desktop is installed (you will need local administrator rights added to your Windows account for the duration of the software install and first HotSync), you can set the HotSync conduits to Handheld overwrites Desktop and perform a HotSync to reload the missing data.
Also, if your old computer is still available, you can use Palm Desktop to export the data and than import it into your new computer with Palm Desktop already installed.

Transfer from G5 machine to Mac Pro

I know there must be so many people asking this but I just wanna be sure.
I am buying a Mac Pro (2.66 Ghz Quad Core) from a friend and need to transfer my existing stuff over to the the mac pro.
What is the simplest way to do it?
He says I can transfer my system drive (On a G5 machine-Tiger) onto the Mac pro by using a firewire cable and then just slot in my audio drive (into the Mac pro) and everything will work fine. Is this correct? Won't there be issues with the plug-ins etc.?
Thanks for all your help.

Don't do this.
All your apps, plug-ins and everything else were installed using PPC code in the UB installers. Just copying stuff over will lead to all sorts of problems. Also, anything authorized via challenge/response won't work as the hardware ID is going to be different.
Take the time to reinstall everything fresh. Your library items will all be fresh and corruption-free, and you'll be much happier; it's a great opportunity to do some serious spring cleaning, and leave out junk you've installed over time that you really don't want or need. Yes, it'll take longer, but you'll land up with a cleaner, more stable system.
Your project drive is a different matter. Assuming it just contains data, you can add it to a bay and you should be fine. You might consider copying everything off the drive, partitioning it and install a clone system backup so you can try out updates and OS upgrades in the future without affecting your main system. Then just copy your project data back to the main partition. A dual-boot machine is a great time saver if disaster strikes.
Happy New Mac!

Easy transfer from ipod to computer mac

I have brought my apple MacBook Pro as of yesterday - and do love it, but I am having problem with get my ipod library transfer to the mac. I phoned support they advised me to down load the subject line (a free download) which then should work --- it didn't!..
Please can you help me?

You can only "transfer" purchased music from the iPod to your computer. Any music you ripped from CDs or purchased elsewhere will have to be moved (either fromt he computer you originally synced with or using third-party software.
If you used third-party software and it didn't work, it would be helpful if you told us what you used and what happened.
Also...are you really running OS 9? If so, which of version of iTunes do you have? It could be that a much older version of iTunes is not compatible with the current third-party apps available to do this.

Transfer from apple tv to mac

Does anyone know if there is a way to transfer files from my Apple TV back to my Mac? I had a bunch of movies files that I ripped to place on my Apple TV. Some of the files on my Mac were accidentally deleted, so I was hoping I could transfer them back from my Apple TV. I'm using a 1st generation, if that helps. And these are not movies purchased on iTunes.
THanks,
Bryan

That's not possible unfortunately. The next time you connect the Apple TV to an iTunes library, all the synced content it contains will be deleted. If the content you have lost is valuable enough to you, you might consider removing the drive from the Apple TV and connecting it to your computer, however this is not straight forward since the Apple TV isn't designed to be serviced by the user.
Can I suggest you get yourself an external hard drive and start using Time Machine or another back up utility. Data loss is often sudden and unexpected and far too late to do anything about in many cases.

Audiobooks transfer from itunes on my mac

i have a large number (150) audiobooks on my mac in iTunes.
I have tried all i can to transfer them to my new iPhone I just received today, but it does - except for one single book - not seem to work. When I try the books on my mac, I can listen to them without any problem but they just simply do not appear on the IPhone.
What am I doing wrong?

I have exactly the same issue. Just one book out of 45 syncs to my iPod touch.

Sorry, new. How to get rid of files left from firewire transfer from old to new mac shows up in finder.

When I transferred files by firewire from a macbook to a macbook (snow leopard) I find some type of files in the finder of the newer mac. They look like
user files and appear to show network connections or something I do not recognize, I don't seem to be able to delete these files for some reason. Is there
any way short of formatting and starting over please??
Thanks

The best method is to archive the contents of the TC to a disk.. archive is available via the airport utility.
Simply plug in a USB drive large enough to store all the material presently on the TC, 1TB or 2TB or 3TB.. whichever model it is.
Archive I have drawn red box around.
Once the archive has completed ..
Use the Erase disk.. just the Quick erase is ok.. takes a couple of min and then you have a nice empty drive to start loading TM backups on.

Photo file transfer from mobile phone onto Mac-cannot open photos in iPhoto

Message reads: "Unreadable files: 1 The following file could not be imported. (The file is in the iPhoto Library Folder.)"
I have successfully transferred photos from my mobile phone into my iPhoto Library, however I cannot see or edit these in iPhoto. They have been transferred as Preview shots and are only viewable in Finder: /Users/aaronandjuliemuir/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Fiji Iguana with Max.jpg
Why can't I see these in my actual iPhoto application?

jam000
Why?
The following file could not be imported. (The file is in the iPhoto Library Folder.)"
Drag the file from the iPhoto Library Folder to the desktop and then try and import it.
