User folder migration

Hi All,
I have a newb question. I inherited a Mac OS X server, which has been upgraded from 10.5 to 10.6.8. We will be getting a new server (10.8) and I want to buikd a new domain from scratch. I want to migrate the user folders (only 6 users) and keep their permissions on the new setup. What's the best way to ensure privacy once I copy the folders over to the new server. Should I use chown to change the owner at the top level of the migrated folder? Or would it be best to backup the user data from within the profile, then restore the data once I have the network user's home folder setup on the new server?  I have tried using chmod -R -N before and I found that some permissions got messed up. I would like to ensure that users cannot browse to another person's folder and that new files have correct permissions to allow privacy and administrator backups.
Long winded post.
Thanks for slogging through it!

So, the issue you have will be a GUID issue.  You are planning on recreating the users.  So even if there is an asmith on the old server with a UID of 1025 and an asmith on the new server with a UID of 1025, the accounts will have different GUIDs.  ACLs will rely on GUID which is not easily recreated.  Now, you could get past this with a migration of accounts, but for 6 users, this is likely not worth the risk of bringing forward corrupted data that will pain you in the future (10.5.x >> 10.6.x >> 10.8.x = many things can go wrong).
Since this is six users, I think your plan to simply copy over once the new accounts are established is actually the most direct and accommodating.  By doing this, the data will lay down with the proper permissions, eliminating the need to chmod, chown, chflags, etc.  In addition, it staged properly, you will be able to run both systems concurrently allowing for a staged migration from one to the other.

  • Migration Assistant 90 GB from PowerPC to Intel user folder

    This at first seems like it will only take 3 hours. Next thing I know I come back an hour later, it tells me 20 hours. I've verified the directory, even restored the original software on the Intel Mac, and use a dummy folder as my default user folder on the Intel Mac. Are the estimates realistic, or should I just let the machine spend the better part of a couple days trying to transfer if I have that much data?
    I've turned off Energy Saver, Screen Saver, and use Macbrightness to dim the display so there won't be too much burn in.

    Anything in your Library folders. All your PowerPC applications if you overwrite those pre-installed on the Intel machine with those from your PPC machine. Any plug-ins, preference panes, contextual menu items, startup items, etc. If you overwrite Intel items with PPC items then they may not work at all or will cause the system to run very slowly.
    I really don't know what happens if you do an Archive and Install of an Intel system that's been partially altered with PPC components. I don't know if the applications will be replaced or simply transferred. I've only done them on same version/hardware machines.
    If you've migrated "everything" including applications then all the Intel software will be replaced by PPC software. Not a desired outcome. I always recommend not using Migration Assistant and simply transferring only personal files and data plus certain support files and preferences that will not affect the Intel system. Migration Assistant is convenient but it's better used when you are moving across machines that have the same OS X version installed and the hardware is the same (PPC or Intel.)

  • Migration Assistant says it needs 221978913 gb for one user folder

    I am attempting to migrate a colleague of mine from a PowerMac G5 2.0 DP running 10.4.8 to a Mac Pro 2x2.66 machine running 10.4.8 as well.
    I have the old machine hooked up via a firewire cable and idling in target disk mode. On the new machine I login as an user with administrative rights, start up the migration assistant and let it calculate (takes about 5 minutes). Then it says that it needs 221978913 gb for one of the user folders (the one basically being used and needing to migrate). Obviously this isn't correct. The user folder is pretty big (about 110gb) but definitely not 221978913 gb. Everything else such as Applications or the guest user account is the correct size.
    What do I need to do to make this work? I have a feeling its an alias pointing to itself or something like that, but the guy has thousands of files and projects in his folder... there's gotta be a quick and dirty way to find something like that (perhaps a find command or applescript).
    Thanks guys,
    Yvo

    Hi Yvo:
    I've seen outlandish size estimates like that when the directory is messed up; the computer basically doesn't know where the files begin and end, and it comes up with some huge number for the size of the folder.
    Try using Disk Utility to Repair Disk on the G5. If it makes any repairs, try again until it finds no errors. Then try running the migration assistant again and see what it says.
    Good luck,

  • During an aborted migration attempt from old Macbook Pro to new machine running Yosemite my recently installed apps and settings have been placed in a deleted user folder. How do I reinstate them?

    During an aborted migration attempt from old Macbook Pro to a new machine running Yosemite my recently installed apps and settings have been placed in a deleted user folder. How do I reinstate them?

    I suggest starting over. Boot into Recovery mode, wipe the HD, reinstall the OS, and, on first boot, use the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide to do the migration.'

  • What happened to my User folder? Now there is a default.migrated folder instead. I did not upgrade from W7. Always had W8.

    Is my User folder gone? I have no idea what happened to it. Is it possible that a virus has redirected the folder or has placed it somewhere else for access? I have not upgraded from W7.  W8 is the factory installed OS on my system. Any thoughts on
    what happened?

  • How best to move user folder to a Mac Mini + external drive

    I am streamlining my desktop computer setup. Whereas before I was using a PowerMac G5 as my primary desktop computer, I realize I am using my MacBook Pro more often, so in the interests of conserving space, I will be switching over to a Mac Mini connected to my AV system for hosting all my iTunes music, videos, media, photos, etc.
    Here is where I need advice. My PowerMac has a lot more media on it than can fit on the internal hard drive of a Mac Mini. I have already secured a 1 TB external drive which will be permanently connected to the Mac Mini, but I am unsure as to how to best go about copying my data to it.
    My initial thought was that I could move the iTunes music folder to the external drive using the library consolidation feature, and I could copy my iPhoto library to it, then point the respective applications to the new location. However, I want the external to act as my home folder where the OS looks for all my personal data, including movies, documents, etc.
    I know there is a procedure for changing your home folder's location to an external drive, but because of the limited size of the Mac Mini's internal HD, I would like to use migration assistant when I first start using the Mac Mini. Should I hold off on moving the home folder until after I have migrated, or can it be done beforehand?
    Anyone have any thoughts or ideas? Thanks!

    Thanks for the procedure. It seems very easy, but I am wondering about the consequences depending on when I do it. For example, let's say I first copy my entire home folder to the 1 TB external drive, set up the PowerMac to use it as my home folder, then use migration assistant to import my user accounts, applications, and settings onto the Mac Mini. Will it try to extract the data from the external drive onto the Mac Mini's internal drive? There won't be enough room for everything.
    As an alternative, I can move my iTunes library and iPhoto library onto the 1 TB external first, keeping the rest of my user data in its original location. Then it can fit on the Mac Mini, and I can do the migration, then move the home folder to the 1TB external once it's all up and running on the new computer.
    Which will work best?
    I had heard about people using a single drive as their home folder across multiple computers, but that is not the case for me. My MacBook Pro will become my primary computer, but I intend to keep it clear of media, whereas the MacMini will become my media server for my AV system in my living room. The 1 TB will be constantly connected to the Mac Mini, so there shouldnt be a problem with starting it up once the user folder location has been moved.

  • User account is not accessible for login, but remains in Users folder. Can it be re-activated?

    My 18 mo old grandson hit a few keys on my wife's mid 2010 MbPro while she was logged in and eliminated her user login from the startup/login screen. I used resetpassword utility to reset p/w for System Administrator to access the machine and the user folder is intact. (The account also does not appear in the resetpassword pulldown list of users.) I have copied all of the folders except Library in her original account into a newly created account. Is there a procedure to (1) re-activate/re-access her original account, or (2) migrate her original Library information/settings to the new account?

  • My user data ( music, movies, et. al.) take up too much space to fit on my SSD. How do I use the user folder I've copied to my new iMac's hard drive?

    As above. I can use Migration Assistant to move my account from my old machine, but the data are far too extensive to fit on the solid state drive. I copied my user folder over to the new hard drive, but how do I access its contents? More accurately, how do I set the folder on the hard drive as my default storage space?

  • Qosmio X500 Folder migration utility and low disk space drice C

    This may be a longish post as I try to explain my problem... please forgive.
    I've had my X500 for just over three months now.
    It took a little while before the folder migration utility woke up I didn't know it was there after I'd done a limited copy of folders across from my old Qosmio F20. After it had woken up and I'd been able to transfer folders/files across it cleared a lot of room from the 'tiny' - I feel, 60 Gb SSD C drive.
    I keep getting a message coming up sometimes, when I boot up, that the folder migration utility has a setting for me. If I open the utility it shows no folders in the 'C' drive area and folders already transfered [from first using it] in the right hand side for the 'D' drive. Text in the bottom of the utility says something like "if you have done some manual transfers then it can't do anything"... something along those lines - sorry for not being clear on that.
    I've recently installed some other programs and have endeavoured each time to do a custom install to the D drive to program files [x86] folder. However, drive C is now showing low disk space at 5.58 of 59.2 Gb.
    Checking the folders copies??? I thought for the programs I installed I find lots of folders/files in those program folders so taking up a lot of space.
    What is the best way to free up space on drive 'C' please?
    Should I manually copy the data contained in the folders [not just a 'name' ... ie; AVID... folder but possibly also in the drive C Program files [x86] folder] to the same named folders on drive D?
    If I did, would the programs work properly or would there be problems in the program being located?
    When the utility first activated [by itself] I thought "Great... transfer of all my old data to the X500 will be easy" but it doesn't seem to be the case. I was expecting that any new programs installed would be automatically copied to drive D. I'm getting somewhat paranoid about the low disk space on drive C.
    Help would be appreciated.

    Thanks for coming forward PauPau.
    Firstly, when I got the x500 I had lots of documents etc., I wanted to transfer over so I used the Win7 Transfer program to make the back up/transfer images. In doing the transfer across [after the copies of] the X500 gave an error warning that the C: drive had insufficient space to do the full copies. At this time/stage I was not aware that the X500 had a folder migration utility. What ever made it 'wake up' and make itself known I have no idea but I used it when it did. My first problem was probably in using the Win7 file transfer - for getting files/folders across from the old computer to the x500!
    I ended up doing a factory reset about three times before this utility made it self known. I found NOTHING in ant documentation about the X500 about this utility and how to make use of it when I bought the laptop. Not sure if you are aware of the make up of the X500 having 2 hard drives; a 'C:' drive of 65Gb SSD and a SATA 'D:' drive of 650GB. If you do then my apologies if that comes over in any 'bad' way. The D: drive is NOT a partition of 1 installed hard drive as your reply would seem to suggest you are thinking.
    The migration folder utility, when used first time, copied/transfered folders across - even program folders such as Program files [x86] - and left 'similar' named folders on the C: drive. At that time I then thought that any future installs of programs would be put in the D: drive. Only when watching the first time for a new program install did I see it going to the C: Program and Program files [x86] folders instead of those in the D: drive. I then had to uninstall and do a custom install to direct to the D: drive. However... some data appears that it can NOT be directed from the install disk to the D: drive and still goes to the C: drive - HENCE the issue I am having with the small amount of remaining free space on the C: drive.
    I accept what you say in reply to my question about the best way to free up space but, based on as explained above, should I have to do a re-install of any program I try to run after being moved to the same named corresponding folder on the separate D: drive [if that is what I have to do] I think the install disk will still do an automatic install of these to the C: drive as at that stage there seems no way of stopping it. Although given the option in a custom install to change the 'drive' to install to such as the D: some data is still going to C: and I'll be in the same predicament that I am now.
    If that's the case then maybe this is something that TOSHIBA should be looking in to solving if they are going to produce laptops with two hard drives - - - even if one [the C: drive] is of the SSD make to speed thing up.
    I DO appreciate your input. MAybe I didn't explain properly first time... and maybe I haven't this time - in which case I apologies.
    Are there no other X500 users with the same issue?
    Thanks. I may just have to give it a go and transfer these data files/folders manually to the D: and see what happens if no one here can guide as to stop any hair pulling frustrations if it goes wrong.

  • Public Folder Migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchage 2007

    Dear All,
    We are having 2 exchange 2007 server in single copy cluster (SCR) with 1 branch exchange server in parent domain and another Ex2007 single copy cluster in child domain. We have deployed exchange 2013 SP1 in parent domain with ex2007 co-existence. We have
    migrated all parent domain users mailbox from Ex2007 to Ex2013 SP1. All Ex2007 have public folders (FP). We want to decommission public folder server in parent domain and want to keep PF only in child domain (Ex2007) which should be accessible by all users.
    We are facing a strange issue. As told earlier, in parent domain for ex2007 we have 2 Server in single copy cluster + 1 branch. Both have 1 FP each. We want to remove branch 1st. We ran "MoveAllReplica.ps1" script on branch to move all replica
    to single copy cluster. Now it shows system folder with all 0 contents as shown below:
    [PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-PublicFolderStatistics -Server branch

    Now the issue is, if we dismount the FP store on branch server, all users are unable to access their FP. they get error saying exchange is down for maintenance. If we see connection status then we saw that its trying to connect branch FP server. In all client
    setting we have removed branch server PF folder. What are we missing? Now our users who migrated to Ex2013 don't have any FP client setting also to look into. We tried reading lots of stuff but nothing seems to fix. Any advise is highly appreciated.
    Feel free to revert for any clarity!!
    Thanks in advance!!

    Dear All,
    We did little research and below are the results:
    1. After moving Mailbox from SingleCopyCluster(SCC) DB to Ex2013, the user while connecting to PF connects to branch exchange PFs (where is his client setting points to SCC PF). He can access PF on SCC as well
    2. If we discount branch PF DB, user gets error "Exchange server down for maintenance" while expanding PF. If we see connection status then it shows trying to connecting to Branch PF
    3. If we move the mailbox back to old Ex2007 SCC, users connects to right PF (only SCC) and can work without issue even if we discount branch PF DB
    As we have migrated MBX to Ex2013, there is no client setting to point migrated users to SCC PF.
    Hope it help all of you to suggest what might fix this..
    Thanks again..

  • Mac OS X, User Folder and Case-sensitivity (plus a Partitioning Question)

    Hello everybody.
    Today, I'd like to start a new thread regarding the configuration of OS X and the formatting of the drive with a HFS+ (case-sensitive, journaled) file system.
    There is a problem that has been tormenting me for quite some time now, and so far I haven't been able to find a losution yet.
    Here is the issue. When I bought my MacBook Pro (early 2011), I changed the main dirve to an hybrid SSD destinating the original 750GB to a Time Machine backup disk. As a consequence I had to make a fresh install of OS X. When it came the time of formatting I've opted for:
    Creating two partitions: 1 for the OS and 1 for the user folder (I have only one admin-user). Back then, I was coming from a Win enviroment and having two partitions seemed to be the best option for me. (Less chanche of user-data corruption in case something goes wrong in the OS partition).
    Chose a HFS+ (case-sensitive, journaled) file system. It seemed to be the more complete alternative.
    Everything was absolutely for a couple of months then I encountered the first issue: Adobe products don't work on a case-sensitive fs.
    I managed to get Photoshop to work eventually (manually correcing folders name) and didn't care too much about the rest.
    In the meantime over a year has passed and I kept the mentioned configuration, uptdating to Lion and ML. Recently another couple of isses have appeared: AutoCAD presents the same problem as Adobe and there is an issue in the keyboard balcklight control (from forums seems that ML is not able to store any information in System Preferences regarding the backlight).
    Despite the fact that case-sensitive fs seems to be the future solution chosen by Apple, it is still premature to have it as OS fs unless you are an hard-core developer that don't care about tons of programs that would eventually miss from your application folder.
    Being decided to move back to a case-insesntive fs, I need wish I could calrify a couple of doubts before proceding:
    (Not relatete to fs) Is it a good practice to keep user folder on a separate volume? Does it generates any issue on the base of your experience?
    Is it possible to have the OS on case-insensitive fs and the user folder on a case-sensitive one? Does the OS have an issue with that?
    The second point is the most critical as my data are now on a case-sensitive volume. They mostly consists in documents, images and music which should be migrated on a case-insensitive volume seamlessy, however, I'm not 100% sure about what happened during the last year (i.e. if there has been the generation of not-unique names).
    Furhtermore, I wish I could keep a case-sens volume as I plan to be dealing with a Linux enviroment soon. If that could be the user volume, this would be amazing.
    I'd also like to ask personal opinion on advantages of having case-sens fs.
    I understand I asked lots of questions in a single post. I hope, however, that this thread could be a base to collect some of the quite dispersive topics related to case-sensitivity present on the web.
    Best Regards,
    Alexander

    Linc, in the provious post you said there might be issues having user data on a separte partition.
    Which kind of issues are you tihnking of? Have you ever encountered such problems?
    The biggest risk is that poorly written software will assume your home directory is at /Users/you and will fail (or worse) if it doesn't like what it finds there.
    I really appreciated if you could be more specific and don't worry about being too technical.
    There are two ways you can go about it.
    1) Set everything up normally as if you only had one partition. Create your user on that one parition. Then, copy all the real user data to the 2nd partition. Using your admin account, make sure that all the permission on the user folder on the 2nd partition are the same as on the original partition. The, use System Preferences > Users & Groups > your account > right/control click > Advanced > Home directory and change it to the home directory on the 2nd partition. Log in to that new account. Make sure everything works. Then delete the user directory at /Users.
    2) A even more robust, old-school option is to create an /etc/fstab file and have your 2nd partition mounted at /Users. Then, everything will function normally and your user home directories will all be at /Users. /Users will, however, be on a different volume.

  • No "Deleted Users" folder

    I used the Migration Assistant to transfer a user's settings and files from one laptop to another. The user's account had already been manually created on the new laptop, and contained some files I wanted to keep.
    During the migration, I received a dialog advising that the user to be transferred already existed, and gave the option to save the existing user's files under the "Deleted Users" folder - perfect for my needs.
    However after the transfer, I cannot find a Delete Users folder (or anything similar) anywhere on the disk, and cannot locate the files of the existing user account anywhere.
    What has happened to the promised backup of the existing user's files??
    (Before you criticize my actions too much, yes, I do have an external backup of sorts, but not totally up-to-date. And I launched the Migration Assistant with a view to exploring my options - if it had not suggested moving the existing account to a Deleted Users folders, I would have done something very similar myself maually!!)

    Your profile says Leopard. If so, wrong forums. If not, update your info. As for Deleted Users, if created it exists at: "name of boot volume"/Users/Deleted Users/.

  • How To Copy User Folder/Application Folder To Fresh Drive

    I have a friend's iMac G5 whose hard drive went south. Fortunately I was able to copy its contents onto an external firewire drive before it totally lost its data. I installed a new hard drive in the iMac and put on a fresh copy of Leopard and iLife '80 - using my friend's same name for the user folder. Migration Assistant won't see the folder as it is on a connected but not bootable drive. So I need to manually drag over her data but I am concerned about just how to do this in a way that won't put me (and her) in "permissions agony." What's the best way to do this? Her system was running Tiger 10.4.11.
    Plus the same is the case for her old applications folder. How can I get all that including the files that go into various libraries. Migration assistant would be so wonderful as it handles all that stuff...any help with this part also?
    Thanks in advance.

    I was able to have a fairly successful conclusion to my dilemma. I had copied her information using Retrospect's Duplicate function and all her data was copied onto a firewire drive. This was done as her drive was going south before it totally deteriorated. I made a new administrative user with a slightly different user name (adding a 1 to her name) and copied all the user folder data over. Then I deleted the original user (and the 1 on her new user name) and was left with all her stuff in good shape with no permission problems that couldn't be taken care of with Disk Utility. Of course the Applications folder was one I didn't bother with because of how so many applications install things all over the place, preferences, application support folders, etc.; but, after a reinstall of most of her applications, things to seem to be working quite well. A few of her applications that I had no install for, I copied over successfully from her old application folder itself. Not bad.
    I bought a Time Capsule for her use and am backing up that way for her...as well doing a Super Duper incremental back also onto the Time Capsule.
    Thanks for your help.

  • User folder larger than Macintosh HD

    I am trying to merge my user onto an iMac with an existing user. I checked the size of my Time Machine backup and it looked like there was ample room on the target machine. However, when I attempted to move my user using Migration Assistant, I was told that there was not enough space. As it turns out, my user folder is occupying more space than what Macintosh HD reports it is using. I have used both Finder and Disk Utility to confirm this. I have attached screenshots of the finder results for both Macintosh HD and my user folder. I am on OS X Yosemite version 10.10.3, on a 24-inch early 2008 iMac (this is the machine that I will be getting rid of).I've tried the following suggestions, but so far the problem persists:
    Starting up in the Recovery partition and repairing Macintosh HD, but it said there was nothing wrong with the disk.
    I have repaired disk permissions several times
    Run fsck from Single User Mode, all to no avail.
    I've manually deleted the .DS_Store files from Macintosh HD and my user folder and then relaunched Finder
    I have also attempted to force Spotlight to reindex my entire hard drive
    So at this point I'm at a loss to explain the discrepancy in size and don't know of any other options. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    I used Disk Utility to repair permissions and this is what I got.
