What chords do i need for a data migration from macbook 2008 to  macbook air 2012

My 2008 macbook has a firewire port and my new macbook air 2012 has a thunderbolt port. I have a thunderbolt cable but i can't find an adapter to firewire or the firewire cord? Should I return the thunderbolt cable and surrender the 100 bucks for one-on-one or go through the tedious process of using my external hard drive as the 'messenger boy'?

There's all sorts of ThunderBolt to FireWire adapters out there. Here's one on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Apple-Thunderbolt-to-FireWire-Adapter/dp/B008RXYOKY/ref=sr _1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1346277186&sr=8-11&keywords=thunderbolt+firewire
You'd also need a FireWire 800 to 400 adapter. http://www.amazon.com/elago-FireWire-400-800-Adapter/dp/B002TF0ZDQ/ref=sr_1_8?ie =UTF8&qid=1346277133&sr=8-8&keywords=thunderbolt+to+firewire

    What cable do I need for a full migration from a 2011 MacBook Pro to a new current one-wireless migration way too slow.?

    All you need is an Ethernet cable.
    Just plug it into both machines. Don't bother with a crossover cable, just a plain old Ethernet cable will do. The Ethernet ports on the Macs are smart and will adjust appropriately.

  • What drivers do I need for a dell V515w AIO printer on my MacBook Pro OX S 10.7.2

    What drivers do I need for a Dell V515w all in one printer for my MacBook Pro OS X 10.7.2 ????

    Uh, tough call, you'll have to check what is used with a PC, drivers or driver+software.
    If driver+software then that's a problem as they likely won't write one for OS X.
    If drivers you can install these open source one and hopefully it might work,  Dell and Apple don't get along so you likely won't see Dell drivers installed by Apple in OS X like they do for others.

  • What User authorization objects needed for connecting to SAP from xMII?

    We eneter a SAP user and password for connecting to SAP from xMII to retrieve the metadata of the incoming IDocs.
    When I specify a user with SAP_ALL user profiles, the IDocs are received properly in xMII. If I specify a user with privileges to run only certain transactions, IDocs are not received in xMII.
    What user authorization objects are needed for this user to connect to SAP from xMII?
    Thanks,
    Sara

    Sam,
    I turned on the SAP System trace for this user and figured out the following auth. objects are required for receiving IDocs in xMII:
    C_TCLA_BKA
    S_RFC
    S_CTS_ADMI
    B_ALE_MAST
    S_IDOCDEFT
    The following auth. object is required for making JCO call to SAP from xMII:

  • Need Help in Data migration from standard 10g to standard to 11g RAC

    Hi,
    We are running an application in Standard 10g (Not RAC). Our service provider has installed a fresh standard 11g RAC and did not transfer the data from 10g to 11g RAC.
    I want to migrate the 10g data to 11g RAC.
    I wanted to know the followings
    1) Easy data transfer technique (Data Pump or RMAN) & How do I do that (Steps)
    2) How to backup the fresh 11g RAC (In case of errors in data transfer process to recover the base) (How to do)
    Appreciate your help as I only have average knowledge in DBA.
    Thanks.

  • What makes a field eligible for selecting data in a subreport?

    Hello,
    I have posted the following question to [StackOverflow|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4366702/what-makes-a-field-eligible-for-selecting-data-in-a-subreport], but it has so far generated no replies. I decided to cross-post it here to see if I could get a better result.
    The TL;DR of it is that I have a field which I should be able to link in my Subreport, but it does not appear, and I was wondering what I need to do to make it appear.
    I have a Crystal Report I'm trying to recreate from scratch after an update from VS2008 to VS2010 caused it to implode horribly.
    I've gotten most of the way through, but I'm at a stage where I'm linking a field in the Main Report to a corresponding field in the Subreport.
    I have set up a bunch of Database fields in the Subreport, I've added the table I want, TableA, I've linked it up as everything was linked in the original report, with TableA at the head of the linking chain, so that all the rows I want can be derived from the result of that first query ( Actually, all of the links from the original Report were red in the Database Fields linking dialog, whereas mine are a bit rainbow-y. All the links in TableA are red, though... _ )
    In the "Subreport Links" dialog, I have an integer which I know is being pulled from the database correctly. I've added it in the "Fields to link to" listbox, and selected the newly-created parameter in the "Subreport parameter to use" combobox. I've ticked the "Select data in subreport based on field" checkbox.
    The database field I want to link to then does not appear in the second combobox.
    Another integer field in TableA shows up fine in the "Select data..." combobox (and is linked to another field being passed in), so I don't know why these two integer fields, which are equally important, and exist on the same level, on the same table, are being treated differently by the report designed.
    Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

    Here is what I'd do:
    1) Download CR 2008 eval designer from here:
    http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx
    2) Try the linking in CR 2008 designer
    3) If it does not work there, ask why not in the [CR design|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio; forum.
    4) If you get the linking working in the CR 200 designer, try to run the report in your VS2010 app (after ensuring the report woks as expected in CR 2008).
    5) If (4) above works out for you, please let me know as this may be an issue with CRVS2010.

  • What technical components are needed for integration of SAP BI and BO?

    Hello,
    What technical components are needed for integration of SAP BI and BO?

    Hi,
    you need to setup a BOBJ server (eg. BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 or BO Edge 3.1) and then install the BusinessObjects integration Kit for SAP on the same machine your BOBJ server runs.
    In order to build reports you can either use Crystal Reports (eg Install Crystal Report Designer 2008 V1 if you have an XI 3.1 server installed), WebIntelligence (Install the Business Objects XI 3.1 Client Tools in order to be able to build universes), BusinessObjects Voyager or XCelsius. Please note that you have to always install the BOBJ integration Kit for SAP (should be the same version as your server and client installation) on your clients AFTER you installed one or more of the above client tools.
    Please take again a look at the following link for more detailed information (from Ingo) on this:
