Lightroom from a PC to a MAC

I have both Lightroom and Photoshop on my PC laptop. Well now I am in the market to buy a MAC, but do I have to buy new softwear again or is there any way to instal it on to a MAC?

Lightroom is multi-platform so the same serial number will work on Mac and/or Windows and you're allowed to install it on a maximum of two computers at any one time: Mac/Mac, Win/Win or Mac/Win
To install on a Mac, you need to download the Mac installer (.dmg file) from the Adobe website then enter your serial number.
Photoshop is licensed per platform: one serial number, two activations but Windows -only (Win/Win) or Mac-only (Mac/Mac). Not Win/Mac. So you'd have to purchase a Mac version separately.
You could consider joining the Adobe Cloud: it's all multi-platform so the same membership allows you to install all software (max 2 activations at any one time) on Mac/Mac, Win/Win or Mac/Win.

Transferring images from a PC to a Mac

Fist of all, please excuse me if my questions appear elementary but I am a recent convert to Apple and to digital photography. I have a PC desk top computer and a just-purchased MacBook Pro. At the moment all of my images are on the internal hard drive of my PC and the drive is filling up fast. I need a short term solution to my diminishing internal disk space that will tide me over until I learn enough about workflow to invest in a longer term solution. I want to view and edit my images on the MacBook Pro. I realize it's not the best way to edt but it will have to do until I replace my PC with a desktop Mac which I intend to do. But in the meantime I don't want to clog up my Mac unnecessarily with thousands of images. So, my questions: 1)) What is the best way of transferring my images from the PC to my Mac? 2) If I transfer my images to an external hard drive from my PC will my Mac have any problems reading them? 3) Can an external hard drive be formatted to read both PC and Mac files? 4) Rather than get an external drive for my PC (since I don't intend to edit on the PC, am I better to get one for my Mac? 5) Can someone suggest a good on-line tutorial on this topic so that I don't need to trouble all you good folk. Any advice would be appreciated.

There are many solutions: Your first stop is www.macwindows.com, and read everything in site re: formatting ext HD's to run on both,your best solution. There are apps that allow macs to read/write/ drag & drop to /from Fat 32 & NTSF partitions, and visa versa, read about networking and remote controlling PC's and Macs, as well. A simpler but time consuming solution is internet backup/ syncing via Sugar Sync or Mobile me.
*maybe you can help me: I'm about to get my first PC to capture digital dental xrays. I'm told that the imaging sensors drivers only work on a PC/xp or Vista, 32 or 64, though they are written in 32. I want to network (automatic syncing of dental image files and practice mgmt files from the imaging app & mgmt app) the PC to an iMac, either booted in Vista 64 or running it in emulation. The PC Imaging app (Apteryx) and the PC Mgmt app (Dentimax) works either way on the iMac. How do I:(1) set up a wireless network, (2) that onlt auto syncs the 2 dental apps files, (3) on a Vista booted iMac, or ($) on a Vista emulated by Fusion, iMac????? Thanks! I assume a V booted imac is a PC to PC setup, but I have no idea how to do this? I also find it hard to believe that the sensor drivers wont work on a V booted iMac!

If you used Migration Assistant and do not have the PC data on an external disk you can merge the two accounts by copying the data to through Shared folder.

Help transferring contacts from iPhone4 5.01 to Mac without duplicating contacts on either or both lists

When I connect my iPhone running 5.01 to my mac vie iTunes, and transfer contacts, it always duplicates the contacts when synching.
So if I have a single John Doe entry on both my iPhone and Mac, I now get two.
Sometimes it will make 3 or 4 copies.
I want to:
copy my contact list from my iPhone TO my Mac, and update existing entries on my mac, and add new ones that are on my iPhone and not on the Mac, and
transfer contacts from Mac to iPhone that are new to the iPhone
Basically, I have to separate contact lists that I dont want to mix or mesh entirely, and I also want to stop them from duplicating.
The User Manual does not address keeping them from duplicating.
Thanks in advance

Well, there appears to be NO way to get it to stop doing what its doing.
I have one contact list on my iPhone.
I have a different list on my MacBook pro.
When I connect to update items on my phone via iTunes, I back up the iPhone.
I did my update, and then restored from the backup. That brought back in my iPhone contact list.
However, when I go to put my apps and music, books, etc back on my phone from iTunes on my Mac, I either have to bring my contact list off my mac over and it adds entries to the iphone contact list, or I choose not to sync contacts, and it erases them altogether.
If someone has a suggestion how I can keep my original iPhone contact list on my iphone, without having itunes either wipe it or add unwanted entries from my macbook pro, I'd appreciate it!

Transfering videos from Iphone 4 to laptop, the video is rotateed 90 degrees

After transferring videos from Iphone to laptop, Why would the video be rotated 90 degrees?

IIRC, the iPhone is configured that "normal orientation" for video recording is horizontal with the home button on the right. If you are holding it in a different orientation, then that would be encoded in the EXIF data on the recirded video file. Now if that file is edited and that EXIF data is removed or altered, then you could see what you are seeing. It is also possible that the player yo uare playing the videos back in does not properly support the EXIF data embedded in the videos, which would have the same results. When I record video on my iPhone 5, the playback on my Mac works properly.

Transfering songs from old desktop to laptop

I just purchased a laptop and had a data transfer done from old desktop to laptop which included my itunes files. I know where the files are located, however when I try to import the songs, I locate the files which are organized by artist and when I click on the open button, nothing happens. Is there a way to transfer songs on my ipod to my itunes account on the laptop, or am I going to have to do it another way. PLease help!!!!

"Is there a way to transfer songs on my ipod to my itunes account on the laptop"
You can't sync or drag your non iTMS music back directly from an iPod to iTunes. The transfer of non iTMS content is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod, the transfer of purchased content has recently been introduced with iTunes 7. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. As iTunes 7 is just out some of these may not have caught up with it yet though I haven't experienced any problems with the Mac software I use.

For more on the new function in iTunes 7 look under under File>"Transfer Purchases from iPod" which transfers iTMS purchases. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer

Transfering music from ipod to new laptop on Windows

I recently got a new windows laptop, because my old one broke. I have installed the most updated itunes to it, turned on the home sharing, and I would like to add my songs from my ipod to this new laptop. Also, it will not let me update my itunes on to my ipod without erasing everything I have purchased?
Where can I find my bought music on my itunes account? Is there a way to transfer everything onto my new laptop without starting fresh? I do not want to buy the same song twice. So I won't use the itunes if I cannot transfer everything into one place, and add new songs from my new itunes onto my ipod.
This has happened before, and I redid my entire ipod. I do not want to spend more money on the same songs.
Is there a list of things I can do that will sync all of my music to my new itunes without erasing my ipod?

1). Connect your iPod to your new computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
Alternatively open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically" and choose Ok. Then connect your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. iTunes will only give you the option to copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads etc) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
iTunes & iPod software
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
YamiPod Mac and Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
Floola Mac & Windows
iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

Transferring data from crashed pc to new MacBook Pro Retina

I am trying to transfer data from back-up discs from my old pc to my new MacBook Pro. I have a USB superdrive and have inserted the first backup disc but the Macbook does not seem to be responding. I am trying Migration Assistant but it is stuck on the 'Looking for source' screen. Does Migration Assistant work for a pc backup disc? If not, how should I go about transferring the data without having to do it file by file? I also have the pc backed up on Carbonite but they will only transfer the data to a new pc and not to a mac. Help!

Hi nickih64,
When using the Migration Assistant to move data over, there has to be a computer that has be working as Windows version of Migration Assistant needs to be installed and running to make the connection. You would need to have that working or from your back up disks, drag and drop over the information that you want on your MacBook Pro.

Transferring photos from a Canon to my Mac

I recently bought a Canon Power Shot. I have used it and transferred photos to my Mac and didnt have any problems. Now all of a sudden, I turned it on, to import the pictures to the computer, and the camera just turns itself off and the Mac says no camera detected ! I dont know if this is a problem with the camera or the Mac. The camera works fine when actually taking pictures. Can anyone help ?

Hi..
Try this ...
Open Image Capture located in your Applications folder. Connect your camera.
Select the camera under Devices.
Now click the pop up menu bottom left corner of the Image Capture window and select the app you want to import photos with to your Mac.
Before disconnecting the camera from your Mac, right or control click the camera icon on the Desktop then click Eject.

Transferring music from old PC to new mac

Hey guys,
I recently sold my alienware to buy the new macbook pro. That being said, I never had both computers ar the same time - I sold one, then bought the other like a week after. Now, as I try to transfer all my iPhone's data into my new macbook, It seems that the only option for my music is to erase it. This has struck me as an enormous inconvenience; Is there a way-simply put-to plug in my iPhone to my new mac and transfer all its music to the mac's library?
Thanks in advance,
Omarjr50

Welcome to the discussions,
Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your iphone, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought music from the Store to your computer.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your iphone got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Can I move Lightroom from a PC to a Mac?

I am about to move from PC to Mac.Someone has suggested to me that I will not be able to move my copy of Lightroom across from one to the other. I didn't want to argue the point with them since they are somewhat more knowledgeable about such things than me, but I am sure that I can. I didn't have to choose a platform when I bought my copy. Perhaps he was referring to the licence. But then again, I'm sure I am licenced for using Lightroom on at least two computers. Who is correct?
Assuming I am, does it matter that they are differnt platforms? As I said, I want to migrate from one to the other, so I don't intend to use it on both anyway.

Well Dorin, that is news to me! Out of curiosity, I went through the buying process at Adobe to see what happens. Unlike when buying Photoshop, where you have to make a specific choice of platform, with Lightroom, no selection option is available. It simply shows the platform as "Mac/Win". So it makes more sense to buy the disc version rather than the download one.
Marek, I did indeed install LR1 from a disc. I did however, upgrade to LR2 via a download. Presumably, that will make a difference. Perhaps I should install the disc version (LR1) onto the Mac and then upgrade straight to LR3. I was going to get 3 anyway. Would that work? Will there be consequences for me regarding my catalogs, collections, etc, which I went at great pains to organize in LR2?
As a side issue and this will only be of interest to UK buyers, Adobe add VAT at 17.5% for hard copies, but bizarrely apply VAT 21% for the download version.

Transferring files from old computer freezes on Mac Pro

Hi everyone-
I'm new around here and I'm having a problem. I just bought the Mac Pro and right now I am trying to transfer my files from my older computer to this new one. My old computer is a Powerbook G4 Laptop, and I want some files to be on the Mac Pro. So I attached a firewire cable to the Powerbook G4 and to the Mac Pro, and I booted up the Powerbook G4 and held the 'T' button down like you are supposed to. The Powerbook then shows up in the finder window on the Mac Pro, but then all of a sudden the Mac Pro freezes. Even when it didn't freeze, I clicked on the Powerbook G4 Hard Drive icon in the finder window, and some of the drive's contents load but then I just get the spinning colored pinwheel. And nothing happens! Why is this happening, can someone help me out? I tried it earlier and it worked, but now it is repeatedly not working. Thanks!

If you have both computer connected to the same internet connection there's nothing to do cable-wise. All you need to do is…
1) Go to the Sharing System Preference and turn in Personal File Sharing on one of the system, preferably the PowerBook
2) Go to the other system and select the Network menu item from the Go menu (in the Finder)
3) You should now find your other system here and double click on it
4) You should now be asked to log in, just use the log in details you would use to start the other system
5) Now you will be asked which "volume" you want to connect to (select the one that is names you login if you only want to copy documents)
6) You will now have access to the other computer with a disk mount on yur Desktop
