Transferring Information Thriller, PLEASE HELP!!!

I'm transferring info from my G3 powerbook with OSX to my new drive on my powerbook G4 with OSX. I've gone through the welcome set up questions and selected to "transfer info from another computer". I'm doing it through the firewire "T" set-up. It states it will take 5 hours +. Twice now I wait all of the 5 hours until it says 2 or 3 minutes remaining and it just stays there. This time it has been showing 3 minutes for over over 6 hours (not including the 5 hours it took transfering up until then)! I've even tried shutting it down via the power button and it does nothing. I would say it is frozen, but the blue bar is still animated. PLEASE HELP! I've already seemed to have wasted over 10 hours and need to get work done.

Try running Disk Utility, and Disk Warrior on the G3. Run them alternately until they show no errors.

only title bar opens and nothing else....please help

Normally, when you connect via http, the browser doesn't check for site identity, so I don't understand what's happening there.
Do you have any security-related add-ons that force popular sites to use a secure connection, or claim to provide anonymous browsing?
Were you making the connection on your own network or on a public network (e.g., school, coffee shop)? If it was a public network, maybe the error indicates that your traffic was being intercepted???
Without hands on, this is a tough one to diagnose.

Never mind, got it to work. I stumbled around on Google for a while and somehow ended up reading things from the 'jailbroken' community. They had easy instructions to get out of Recovery mode. Thanks anyway though!
P.S. For anyone who experiences this, here is the fix: Hold Power and Home in unison for 6 seconds, then power on as normal.

How to delete photos in iphone which is transferred from mac, please help?

Hi Everyone..
I got an new iphone5 ...Am not able to delete photos which are transferred from my Mac book pro to my iphone...
Please help and guide me how to delete photos in iphone which is transferred from mac book iphoto..

You need to do it through iTunes, by unsyncing them
Wtih your iPhone connected, open iTunes on your computer, and click on your iPhone's name.
This should bring up the Overview Page, then click on the Photos Tab.
From their uncheck the folders that have the images you want top remove from your phone. Then sync the phone. itunes will remove the pictures during the sync process.

My music information- GONE please help!

I am trying to move itunes 10 from old pc to new pc. All my music is on an external HD. I had my music library of over 500 cd's all organized by artist in folders on the external hd. Now, the new itunes install on the new pc has re-organized my external hd and all the folders are gone! Please help me get them back. How can itunes change my own external HD?? It has put all the songs together under a folder called 'unknown atrist'. The title of the song is still there but all my folders are gone!

Maybe turingtest2 (a regular AD poster) can help with his script, TagFromFilename.
Just try one or two files to make sure it works how you want, before you run it on the whole shebang. I think it will help, but I'm not sure.

Good luck. You're going to need it!

Is it really safe to send such information? Please Help!

Hi everyone,
So, I'm "working" with an iPhone developer, who has already some apps selling on the App Store! I asked him, if he could get me a better icon of his Application for me. Then he answered me kindly, that he would be able to send me a personal preview release of the next release of the correspondent app.
However, he asked me for an info: he wants me to send the iPhone ID (which is found, by clicking on the label 'serial number').
So, is it really safe to send such information?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

"Safe" is a relative term. However, short of waiting for the app to be released on the iTunes App Store, that's the only way to get a version of it. The three possible ways for distributing apps are 1) the App Store, 2) direct distribution within an Enterprise organization for internally-developed apps, and 3) limited sharing by a developer with a release tied to a device serial number.
However, note that #3 may not always be possible, as reported for one developer in this linked article.
To be honest, there's not too much a developer could do with your serial number, other than release the app to you, or perhaps report your iPhone as stolen (pretty unlikely, I think).

I have a MacBook Pro, OX 10.4.11, using Firefox 3.6.19. Some time ago my past History disappeared and stopped recording. I'm trying again to reestablish recording of History; can't find information. Please help.

I do not know any other information to provide. Below it says you have made "some educated guesses about … current browser and operating system." That confuses me because I thought I provided the current information in my basic question. I really need help.

What have you figured out? Anything? What you show just shows a pretty quiet system except for firefox having a bunch of tabs open. You've got some page ins and outs so you maybe your'e hitting your HD with swap files more than what you think?
I think something like coconut battery app or something like it will tell you the charge cycles on the battery. How many do you have?
Lastly, are you using any extensions like ad blocker, or click to flash?

Any machine that has a ethernet port can go wireless. It may be cheap to buy another computer.
Ethernet Bridge
Please note this requires mac os x 10.5 or greater to configure or windows xp to configure.
Ethernet Bridge "The versatile Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge can make any wired Ethernet-equipped device a part of your wireless network." from linksys example: http://www.amazon.com/Linksys-RE1000-Wireless-N-Range-Extender/dp/B005FDXMJS/ref =sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1314563758&sr=8-1
Once configured, you can use it on any ethernet port.
Airport ExpressAirport Express is an external unit and you can configure it as a bridge. 802.11n ( I believe you will need a more modern version of Mac OS X to configure. Sadly, Apple uses a configuration program to configure, not a web browser. )

Query by serial number
Apple's warrenty database will identify the type of Mac you have. Your serial number is securely sent, but you get only the name of your machine.

This site provides more information, but lacks security.
"A serial number is a unique, identifying number or group of numbers and letters assigned to an individual piece of hardware or software. It's used for various things depending on the product / brand but what is your Mac's serial number for and more importantly... what is it hiding and what can it do for you ?"

Hi, i backed up my ipad 2 then restored it on my new ipad mini, however not all of my music was transfered! somebody please help me!

Icloud does not backup music.It simply gives you access to music you purchased with iTunes.
For non-iTunes media you will need to sync with iTunes.

When i downloaded itunes to my husbands iphone all of his contacts,pictures erased and downloaded my contacts and pictures. how can i reset all his information? please help

When I downloaded my Itunes list to my husbands IPhone, all of his contacts, pictures erased and MY contacts and pictures downloaded to his phone. How can I restore or get back his information to his phone?

He needs to restore his phone using the computer he normally syncs with. He also needs to pay more attention to the prompts he gets before he just clicks on "OK"...
There is no way to "undo" this. Sounds like he plugged it into a computer he'd never synced with before and it offered to restore from an existing backup... yours.

Transferring my library, please help

My computer recently crashed but I was able to salvage my harddrive and put my music collection onto a couple of dvds. I now have a new computer and have put all my music onto it and am attempting to import that music into iTunes. However, all music that was either bought on iTunes or ripped off cds using iTunes (in other words everything that was previously in my iTunes folder) I can't import into my new iTunes. When I try to "add folder to library" I get the pop up window that says it's importing and it goes through all my music but at the end of the importing process my music hasn't actually been imported...Anyone know what's up? Can anyone help?
Thanks a lot,
Tim

hi Tim!
hmmmm. head into your "advanced" preferences tab, and check to see what folder you have set as a location for imports. is it your itunes music folder?
love, b

Sharing information? PLEASE HELP.

Is it possible to share contacts and recieve the same messages on two different iphones even with separete accounts?

You mean separate iCloud accounts? You can share messages by using the same Apple ID for iMessage (in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive) on both phones. To share and sync contacts with both phones you either have to share the same iCloud account on both phones, or sync them both with the same contact management program (such as Outlook or Mac Contacts/Address Book) on your computer using iTunes.

Problem installing itunes, quicktime or anything else. Stuck at "Publishing Product Information" then error. Please help!

Dear apple community, I'm having trouble installing ANY apple programs, i.e. Quicktime, iTunes, Application support etc. The installer gets stuck at "Publishing Product information" and eventually gives me an error information. Please help! I desparately need to install quicktime atleast! I tried installing an old version but it says "install apple application support" or something along that matter. When I unrar'd itunes installer and tried installing just the application support, but that too got stuck at "Publishing Product information". This is making life very hard for me. Any help would be awesome!!

These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736FD, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?)
