What is the best firewire to transfer from my old PC to my MacAir

Hello,
I have an old Toshiba from 2006 that I recently replaced with the MacBook Air and I want to transfer files. I was told that a Firewire is the best way but I haven't a clue of what the best one would be that is compatible with both. Or if I can even use a firewire for this.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I think all you have to do: Open LP, locate your loop folders, drag them on top of the Logic Pro loop folder, and you will be fine. Just like GB works.

    What's the best way to migrate from a 2010 iMac running Yosemite to a new 2014 iMac?

    Hello jonfromnorth caldwell,
    The article linked below details how to utilize target disk mode to transfer files. This can also be used in conjuction with Migration assistant to transfer your information quickly (the 2010 iMac will appear as a storage device to the new iMac).

  • What is the best way to transfer from one computer to another?

    In the next couple weeks, I'm going to be buying a MacBook Pro. I want to transfer my whole library (with all rolls, albums, slideshows, etc) intact. What is the best way to do this? I assume it's as easy as copying the whole iPhoto Library Folder, correct? Should I copy the iPhoto .plist files as well?
    Thanks

    Daniel:
    You're right about what to copy. Just the entire iPhoto Library folder into the Pictures folder on the new MBP. I'd also download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field. This is just a little insurance that the ownership and permissions are set correctly after the transfer. INo need copy the preference file as one will be generated when you first open iPhoto on the MPB and the file paths in it will be unique to the current Mac. Best to start with a new one.

  • What's the best way to migrate from an old ipad to a new ipad?

    Well, it's more than that. I gave my husband a new ipad for his birthday. He needs to set up the new ipad and can't figure out the best way to do it. Any advice to minimize frustration and lost apps?
    Then I want to zero out his old ipad and claim it as my own. Any advice on the best way to do that?
    thanks in advance.

    Two major ways for hubby to get going with the new iPad.
    1.  Do a full backup of the current iPad, then "restore" the new iPad from the backup.
    2.  Do a complete new setup on the new iPad, and download all the apps again from your app store purchases.
    Each approach has advantages and disadvantages.  #1 is faster and less burdensome, but if there are any quirks with programs or data that may have caused problems on the old iPad, you will carry them over to the new iPad.  #2 is the cleanest way for a new machine, but you may lose some data.
    In either case, once he is comfortable with the new iPad and it is acting as it should, you can wipe the old iPad by going to Reset and wiping the machine to restore factory specs.  Following that, you can set it up fresh for your own use.

  • HT204350 I,m going to change my Mac mini server and time capsule at the same time what's the best way to transfer from both of my old machines

    I've just purchased a new Mac mini server and also a new time capsule is there any easy way to ghost or transfer the new machines at the same time or is it best to do one at a time?

    I have no direct experience transferring a TC and computer at the same time, but prudence tells me to do one, test to be sure it is correct only then do the other. It will take twice as long from process start to finish, but avoids any nasty surprises at process end. In close to 40 years experience, I have never seen a "crash conversion" (everything at the same time) that did not have at least one major disaster. I am sure it can happen but the odds are heavily against it. Patience is a virtue!

  • What is the best way to transfer my iphoto library from old imac to new imac. both have iphoto 9.2.1

    What is the best way to transfer my iphoto library from current imac to my new imac.  Both imacs have iphoto 9.2.1
    os on old imac is 10.6.8.   os on new imac is 10.7.2.   I want the albums  and events to stay intact.  I have 4500 photos and 79 videos. 14.9 gb. looking for some advice here. Thanks so much.

    Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

  • What's the best way to transfer 11,000 photo's from my old mac to my new one?

    What's the best way to transfer 11,000 photo's on iphoto to iphoto on my new mac.  I've just spent 24 hours importing them onlu for it to say there is not enough space available  - BUT I'VE JUST BOUGHT AN NEW UPGRADED MAC?

    Don't import them.
    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.

  • What is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac?

    what is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac? I don't have a time capsule, so I cannot use time machine.
    thanks

    Your best bet by far is to use Setup Assistant when the new Mac first starts up to transfer directly from the old one. 
    It's similar to Migration Assistant, but doing it that way will avoid having an extra user account.
    Either way, you can connect them via FireWire, Thunderbolt, or your network, but avoid wireless if at all possible.  You can connect both to your netwrork via Ethernet, or put a single cable between the two. 
    See Using Setup Assistant on Mountain Lion or Lion for details.

  • What is the best way to transfer my music library from my windows pc to my new macbook air?

    what is the best way to transfer my large iTunes library from my windows pc to my new macbook air?  Not all purchased, many from CDs I owned

    Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive.  Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes.  At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
    If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music  then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there.  (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

  • What's the best way to transfer everything from my 5-year-old iMac to my 1-year-old iMac?

    What's the best way to transfer everything from my 5-year-old iMac to my 1-year-old iMac?
    I'm doing role reversal with these two.  The newer imac is becoming our business computer, the older one will be our personal computer from now on until it gives out.  For the record, I have Carbonite on the business unit.  Should be a no-brainer, right?  (Which is precisely why I'm asking!)
    Thanks for whatever timely and accurate advise you may have.

    Thanks. I stumbled across migration assistant later that afternoon in a google search. Just finished using it today to do the deed. Appreciate your quick response!
