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!

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.

Getting data transfered from old HD to new ones, leaving 2 slots filled . .

Hello,
*(Below is a thread I started in another forum, but, didn't get my final questions answered (see at bottom of this post in BOLD), and am hoping for further help and suggestions. I know there is a lot to read here, but, I think this information will help other novices, such as myself. Thanks!)*
I have 2 new HDs (each 1T) uninstalled, and I have my old HD (160 gigs) currently residing in one of the two slots in my G5. Any ideas on the best way/process to get the data transfered from the old HD to the new ones, leaving my two slots filled with the 2 new drives AND my data from the old HD transfered and intact, with a RAID0 setup?
OR, are there any other suggestions on a good setup with the 2 new HDs??
I'm open to suggestions.
I always back-up on external HDs, so, is their a need for me to worry about setting up a RAID0??
I'm doing video processing for DVD release.
Should I just max out the 2x1T gig HDs and not worry about a HD failure??
All Suggestions welcomed!!
Thanks, Jack
*FROM THE CUTTERMAN:*
You are limited with only 2 drive slots. In this scenario what usually works best is a small fast drive (eg Velocirapter or SSD) for OSX/Applications and a large drive for video files. It is not advisable to have the operating system running from a striped array.
Since you already have the drives, here is what you can do.
Install one new drive and format the partition you wish to use for OSX. You may not want to use the whole drive for OSX, so make 2 partitions. Be sure that it is GPT-formatted so it can boot.
Use CarbonCopy Cloner to copy your current OSX partition to the new one.
Set the startup disk as the new partition.
Remove the old drive and replace it with the second new one.
Reboot, and partition/format new drive.
*Hey Cutterman,*
Thanks for the advice. That sounds like a good set-up. I'll have to research the process of doing what you've advised, but, should work out ok:
A. Install one new drive and format the partition you wish to use for OSX. You may not want to use the whole drive for OSX, so make 2 partitions:
1. Partitions are done under Disc Utilities correct? Never done it before; will take a look.
B. Be sure that it is GPT-formatted so it can boot.
2. GPT is also done under Disc Utilities, correct? Here I start to get a bit confused, as I've formatted Extended Journal, SO, the partition with the OSX & Applications is formatted GPT, and the rest of the HD is formatted as Extended Journal?
C. Use CarbonCopy Cloner to copy your current OSX partition to the new one.
3. So, I partition the first new HD and use Carbon Copy Cloner (also under Disc Utilities) to copy the OSX & Applications from my original HD to the first new HD, correct?
D. Set the startup disk as the new partition.
4. This will be an option when I setup the partition???
E. Remove the old drive and replace it with the second new one.
F. Reboot, and partition/format new drive.
5. QUESTION: So, you recommend not striping the HDs: If I do a RAID 1, which sets up a mirror of the HDs, and since the first new HD is partitioned with the OSX & Applications, AND is set up as the Startup Disk, then the second new HD will also mirror that?? Another QUESTION: Even if the second new HD does not mirror the OSX & Applications, the second HD will only mirror the space/partition not utilized by the OSX & Applications partition, correct?
Thanks for your help!!
Jack
*FROM THE CUTTERMAN:*
OK I will try to answer your questions. To begin, if you want to mirror the 2 drives then you will need to boot from the SL install DVD or an external (USB/firewire) drive to set it up. IMO for your purposes it is too much hassle and a waste of HD space.
1) Yes partitions are created in Disk Utility
2) Yes, you choose a volume Scheme (ie number of partitions) and size them by dragging the separator bar. Then select the planned boot partition and click Options..., then choose GPT. I think it is usually the default but check and make sure. Extended journaled is the usual format.
3) You need to download Carbon Copy. It is a free tool that will copy the entire image of your current system partition to the new one and make it bootable. Consider making a donation as it is a very useful and frequently updated utility. It is fairly intuitive to use. You can also use the restore feature in Disk Utility but I have had more experience with Carbon Copy.
4) Once the copy process is finished the new boot partition will show up under the startup disk selections (this tool is in System Preferences).
*FROM 666Sheep:*
If may i correct one thing: OP, don't choose GPT (GUID Partition Table). You got PPC Mac (G5), so valid partition type for you is Apple Partition Map (APM).
GPT is for Intel Macs and you will not able to boot from this kind of partition.
*FROM THE CUTTERMAN:*
Thanks for the correction- my bad. No familiarity with non-Intel Macs.

*Hi All,*
*Since this process will come to a head on Tuesday/Wednesday, and I hope to be successful in transferring Old HD data to new HD/s.*
*A: I'm still a little foggy here, as I thought I'd set up the 2 new T-gig HDs so that if one of them failed, I'd still have the data backed up on the other HD; more ideas concerning this would be reassuring:*
*WHAT DOES "IMO" mean?*
*(IMO for your purposes it is too much hassle and a waste of HD space.)*
*As I understand the points made: After I partition the first new HD, and Carbon Copy data from old HD, I then install second new HD, and this will just act as an overflow from the first partitioned HD, correct? Because, if set up a Raid1/Mirror, the OSX partitioned portion of the first new HD will not copy to the second new HD, and that space on the second new HD will be wasted, correct?*
*Also: I have to set up RAID1 (if I do not set up RAID0), correct?*
*RAID 1*
*From WIKI: RAID 1 mirrors the contents of the disks, making a form of 1:1 ratio real time mirroring. The contents of each disk in the array are identical to that of every other disk in the array. A RAID 1 array requires a minimum of two drives.*
*Carbon Copy is a free tool that will copy the entire image of your current system partition to the new one and make it bootable.*
*1. Is my old HD partitioned? Is that done automatically by MAC prior to PC purchase?*
*2. Do I Carbon Copy the whole old HD or just parts? (eg. OSX, Photo Shop, After Effects, Various Files)*
*3. I read that it is necessary to DEACTIVATE Photo Shop (I have CS3) prior to doing Carbon Copy. Is that correct? If so, does this also apply to other Adobe applications? Such as After Affects, Illustrator??*
*Thanks to all for the help!!*

Confusing Information:
A1: You also want to make sure the drive you are backing up to is formatted Mac HFS Extended (HFS+) if using Mac OS 8.1 or above.
A2: On PowerPC Macs, your clone should be partitioned as Apple Partition Map.
*Q? I thought the new HD (1T) should be formatted in Extended Journaled?*
B: Also disable Spotlight (in 10.4 only) on your destination drive using Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Spotlight -> Privacy to add the destination drive to the pane.
*Q? I'm using 10.4.11, so, I should follow these instructions?*
C: If possible, boot into safe mode to perform the backup (holding the SHIFT key at startup). In addition, you can clone while logged into another administrative user that you don't use at all to avoid further complications of changes which may be happening to your regular user (though don't use Fast User Switching to get into that other user, since that other user is still active when fast user switching is used). Otherwise you are going to be running a backup on a live system which could have changes happening while you are attempting to backup. These may yield an imperfect clone, with uncertain success at recovery. It may be possible that your clone will have its own hardware issues, so make at least two copies.

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.

Fonts- transferring from old Mac to new Mac

I used FontDoctor to check and collect all my fonts from my old MBP and copied them to my new MBP OSX-10.6.4.
But I don't want to install duplicates or older versions of fonts over newer ones. Will FontBook refrain from adding dups, prefer newer fonts to older, and prefer OT over TT over PS fonts. If so, how do I get FontBook to extract from my copied font collection only the appropriate fonts for installation.
If not what font managers will do that.

Will FontBook refrain from adding dups, prefer newer fonts to older, and prefer OT over TT over PS fonts.
No to both. It will let you install anything and then tell you after the fact you have duplicates (conflicts). It will not prefer any font type over another. About the only thing it does on that front is to try and keep conflicting fonts from overriding any system fonts of the same name. But it doesn't always succeed at that, either.
If so, how do I get FontBook to extract from my copied font collection only the appropriate fonts for installation.
You can't. Until it sees the internal names of the fonts you want to activate, it can't know if there will be a conflict.
If not what font managers will do that.
Suitcase Fusion 2 and FontExplorer X Pro are much better for that. As with Font Book, they can't know there will be a conflict until you activate fonts that do. But they are much better as to how they respond to it. Font Book just lets them conflict and then marks them. You have to decide what to do from there.
Suitcase has preferences that will one; tell you when there is a conflict. And then the overall choice of either activating the requested font (automatically turning off the conflicting font), or keeping the current font active (not activating the font you were trying to turn on). FEX Pro will notify you when there are conflicts and present the same choices; leave the fonts on that are already active, or turn them off and activate the new ones. You can do them one at a time, or apply to all instances.

Transferring from old Mac to new Mac

Have just purchased an iMac and have transferred data from an old iMac and MacBook Pro so I now have two accounts on my new computer. Can I merge the two accounts and if so, how? Can I have both accounts open at the same time? Preference is to merge in to one.
Adam Birchall

Sounds like you are doing fine. However, there is a bit of a difference between what you describe and what the original topic poster wanted to do. The original question was about how to merge two accounts that are already on the new computer into one account. That's why I suggested using the Shared folder. Your question is about how to transfer from an external drive (the Time Machine backup) to your new MacBook's internal drive; that's different, and you do not need to use the Shared folder. You should be able to transfer the files directly from the external drive to the appropriate location on in your +user home folder+, not the Shared folder.
Also, if you don't want to do it manually using Finder, there is a utility called Migration Assistant, in Applications/Utilities. You can use it to transfer user data from a Time Machine backup drive to your new Mac. Personally, I do it manually using Finder, because I have more control over what gets transferred (and how it is done), but Migration Assistant is certainly convenient. You can post back if you have questions about it.
You CAN copy your data into the Shared folder, and that would make the data accessible to more than one user account on your MacBook. However, if you are the only user, there is no need to use the Shared folder; just copy the files directly from the external drive to the internal drive, into your +user home folder+ (the house icon in the Finder window sidebar).
you mentioned that some files (particularly music files) won't automatically pop up into iTunes
Again, the original topic poster was trying to merge data from two accounts into one account. In that case, you have to pick one account as the master and add the data from the other account to it. That makes it hard to preserve things like iTunes playlists, rating, etc. from the account that is NOT the master account. You can add music easily by dragging and dropping the music files to the iTunes window, but that just adds the songs to the library; it does not preserve supporting data such as ratings, playlists, play count, etc.
In your case, it should be easier. Here's how to do it for iTunes. On the MacBook, quit iTunes if it is running. Open a Finder window to
<user home folder>/Music/
In that folder, there is a folder called iTunes. If you use the default settings for iTunes, that folder has all the data iTunes uses. So what you need to do is copy the iTunes folder from the old Mac to take the place of the iTunes folder on the new Mac. For this to work, on the old iMac, iTunes must also have kept all of its data in the iTunes folder (you can post back if it was set up differently on the old Mac). After replacing the existing iTunes folder with the iTunes folder from the old Mac, when you run iTunes on the new Mac, it will use the data from the iTunes folder you copied over from the old Mac, and iTunes should look like it did on the old Mac. The only concern is that the old Mac was pretty old, so it may have used an older version of iTunes, not the current iTunes 9. However, I think iTunes will convert the data as needed, when it runs for the first time with the data, so it should be OK.
I kind of summarized how to do it instead of writing the steps in detail, so if you have any questions, you can post back.

Lost gmail folder content when transferring from old mac to new

I got a new Mac Pro recently and used Migration Assistant to transfer everything from my old mac to the new one. Everything worked fine except in my gmail account. None of the mailbox folders I set up transferred. How can I get them onto the new machine?

If I activate 2-step verification now, would it somehow allow me to access the "lost" gmail folders?
No. Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Aperture 3 Issues when transferring from old Mac to new Mac

I just bought a new iMac 21.5 yesterday. I transferred all my apps and files from the old 17 inch from my Time Machine Backup.
I am running Ap 3.0.3 - RAW 3.0.2 - all software updates I can find are installed.
Have reinstalled 3.0.3 Aperture update
MOst things seem to have worked fine except Aperture.
Some images in some projects either don't display at all, some just have the white box, some are just black, some are full of odd noise (as if the raw version wasnt supported)...
All displayed perfectly before the move - the files are on my drive.
All are in JPG format.
Help please!

I had this same problem but now I think it is as "solved" as it can be. I tried rebuilding multiple times, and I even created a new library and imported my old one into it. After lengthy discussions with Apple support, it seems the problem is a conflict between Snow Leopard 10.6.3, Aperture 3, and the NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT graphics card. The good news is that Apple is aware of the problem and is working on it, the bad news is that they haven't yet fixed it.
I followed the Apple tech's recommendation and it seemed to mostly fix the problem. He had me roll back from 10.6.3 to 10.6.2. You'll need to boot from your Snow Leopard install disc and re-install SL (no, this will not do anything to your files). Then, go to the Apple website and download the 10.6.2 combo update and install. (i.e., do not allow the computer to do an automatic software upgrade to 10.6.3 like it wants to).
What I get now is my Aperture 3 working much faster and with none of the strange artifacts I had before. The only exception is when I'm viewing a photo in full screen mode - for some shots I'm still getting the weirdness. However, this is still a huge improvement over what I had before - I can now actually use Aperture again
Good luck!

HT201317 Privacy concerns having files transferred from old Mac to new Mac.

I am buying a new Mac. I was told that all of my files and photos on my old Mac could be transferred to my new Mac if I left both Macs at the Apple Store for a couple of days. To be honest, I am concerned about privacy issues. Is there is a way to remove files and photos to iCloud and off the old Mac before taking it to the Apple Store?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't use iCloud to do this.
Moving information from one Mac to another is quite simple and you could do it yourself.

Files transferred from old iMac to new iMac, permission/editing problems

I recently purchased a new iMac this month because my old one was no longer working, I can't keep it on for more than 2 minutes.
I always used Time Machine to back up my files, when I transferred all my files to my new iMac I was given alot of trouble with the permissions problem. I got the files to open by copying the folders to the desktop but, for example, all my iTunes music cannot be edited. I get alot of error messages about not being able to save iTunes library because I don't have write permissions.
How do I authenticate the files/folders so I don't have this problem?
Old iMac was purchased in Dec 2007, it has Leopard OS.

If you want your new computer to be very much like your old, during the startup you would choose to migrate before choosing to create a new user. Then, the migration assistant creates the same user on the new computer. Did you do that?
Or did you do this:
If you first create a new user with the same name as the old one you want to migrate, Migration Assistant won't let you migrate as that username since it already exists.
You could create a new user that you will later use as an admin/test account. Then, while logged into the new account, delete the old account and use the Migration Assistant in the Utilities folder to Migrate from your Time Machine backup--it should create a new user with the old user info.
However, if you didn't get any errors from Migration Assistant, I'm not sure why the file permissions are askew.

Transferring from old pc to new one

does anyone know how to transfer my library from my old pc to my new one?
There are a couple that have gone onto the new one for some reason and not the rest.
Any advice would be appreciated.

There are a few things you could do, from networking the two computers, using an external hard drive or even use an iPod to make the move. Have a look at this User Tip: Migrating iTunes for Windows to a new PC
If you can network the computers there is also this one: Copying songs over a network to use with iTunes for Windows
