I need to transfer my iTunes library, email and a few clean files from my PC to my new Mac. I was about to use the Migration Assistant, however I am concerned that viruses on my PC will tag along. Should I be concerned?

How do I transfer my pictures from my iMac to my new Mac Mini?
How do I transfer my pictures from my iMac to my new Mac Mini?
Are they in an iPhoto Library? If so:
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else. -

I have transferred word files form my PC to my new Mac Book Pro. Some of the word files are feint and will not open as you cant select them. Also you cant delete them either because the cursor wont highlight or select them. Any ideas anyone?
Have you tried looking at the file in list view in the Finder and seeing if they actually occupy any space? i.e. "Size"? There shouldn't be any problem with Office documents, Adobe pdfs, etc. If they migrated properly - did you use Migration Assistant or some similar utility?

How do i transfer a playlist from a pc to my new mac?
I am having trouble moving my music from a pc to my new mac that i will be taking to college. Help would be great!
Are you just wantiing to transfer a playlist to the Mac without the tracks? If so what do you get if you right-click on the playlist. On the Mac we get this contextual menu:
Select Export to get this:
That produces a text based playlist that you can copy to the Mac and have iTunes import as a playlist. Since I don't do windows it's all conjecture and theory at this point but hopefully iTunes for Windows works the same as for Mac.

Can't transfer files from my PC to my new Mac over our wireless network
I have a Linksys WRT54G router connected to a cable modem, which is connected to a desktop PC. I have a Dell laptop connected to the internet wirelessly, and my MacBook Pro is also connected to the internet wirelessly. No problem there, the internet works on both.
However, I'm trying to transfer my files from the Dell to my new MacBook, and I get to the point where it asks for my username and password. I've typed in everything I can think of, and the Mac gives me Error -43, 'something or other is not found'.
I don't remember ever assigning myself a username or password when I set up the wireless network. I've had no problem connecting to the Internet with the Dell laptop, but have never been able to share files or a printer with the desktop PC to which the router is connected.
What's going on here?However, I'm trying to transfer my files from the Dell to my new MacBook, and I get to the point where it asks for my username and password. I've typed in everything I can think of, and the Mac gives me Error -43, 'something or other is not found'.
That would be the username & password of the user account on the Mac.

How to transfer video files from Sony Handycam DCR-SR42 to Mac?
How do i transfer video files from a Sony Handycam DCR-SR42 to Mac?
First suggestion would be to read your manual that came with the camea for proper cable use for transfer. The iMac has a FW800 port and also USB2.0 port. Once connected you can import them into iMove and edit them from there. Some Sony codecs may require converting.
Firewire Cable is first needful thing. -
I used the migration assistant to transfer my photos from PC to mac. The photos were not organized at all. They were in the all files section in my finder. I just clicked and drug the pics file to iphoto and the are just in there in a big bunch. Was there a way I could have had them transferred over in there folders from PC?
The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
Do you know where the actual photo files are located on your laptop? If so, you can transfer them to the Mac over a LAN or by saving them to an external HDD, thumb drive or burning them to a disk. Then you can import the photos to the iPhoto app that came on your new Mac.
It would be the same process for the videos, however, it would depend what type of video files they are, as to which Mac app might allow you to view them.
BTW, since your Mac is new you need to Accept the iLife apps; iPhoto, GarageBand and iMovie into your Mac App Store/iTunes account. Open the MAS, sign into you account, go to the Purchased pane and accept the apps. -
I've changed countries and have to contact Apple to get my account transferred but can't find any way to directly contact Apple, as can't use my iPhone in Mexico.
The only way to stop her information is to have her turn off iCloud and wipe the device.
then you can set up with your Apple ID and information.
if she doesn't remove the device from her iCloud account you will not be able to update apps and will run into the activation lock at some point.

Hi there, my old mac book recently died and I opted to buy a new macbook pro, instead of pouring lots of money into the old computer. I was able to get my hard drive out, and I bought a 2.5" Sata Nootbook Drive Upgrade Kit. I have also installed superduper!....but I can't really figure out how to get everything to work. I just want to be able to take some of my files from my hard drive, not everything...
Any suggestions?
Thanks!I don't know what a "2.5" Sata Nootbook Drive Upgrade Kit" is but if you have a internal drive you need to connect all you needed was a $20 IDE/SATA to USB adapter
You don't need Superduper, that's software designed to clone a entire Mac's boot drive to a external drive for bootable backup purposes using the same machine/make/model.
Since the new Mac is different than the old one you can't clone (well you could but it will break the machine) the old drive to the new one.
However you can use the adapter above and software Apple provides in the Utilities folder on the NEW MAC, called Migration Assistant to transfer your User to the new machine.
However this might not be the best course of action as it can transfer unwanted data and cause problems in the Library, old programs that won't run on 10.7, etc.
You can simply create the same named user on the machine (System Preferences > Accounts) log into it and then connect the external drive with the adapter and copy the contents of your users folders over and place into the same.
It's always good to have another Admin level user account on the machine in case the primary one has a User based issue and you need to log into the other and grab files. So if either manually or via using Migration Assistant you wind up with two user accounts on the machine, it's really not that big of a deal. -
How can I transfer my music from an Ipod to my new MAC? My old computer broke.
My old computer broke. I got a new MAC Book PRO. I have all may music in an Ipod classic. Can I recover my music to my new MAc?
Does the old hard drive still work? You can buy an external hard drive case and transfer data to your new Macbook Pro and recover your itunes libary. As far as i'm aware, Apple have not created software or allow you to move music from ipod to Mac.
