What is the best way to transfer contacts from Android (Note 3) to iPhone 6?

I have a back-up of my iPhone 5 in iTunes, but it is about a year old. I would like to use the restore, for apps, pics, etc. and also transfer my current contacts from my Samsung Note 3. What is the best way to do that?

What is the best way to import contacts from a spreadsheet to my iphone 4S

Hi,
I have around 20,000 contacts that I wish to import onto my iphone 4S.
I am currently compiling a spreadsheet from all different sources. I am based in the UK.
Would there be any format that I need to used?
Is there some sort of application that can be usedto import contacts from different sources?
Thanks guys!

The only way you're gonna get your contacts into the iPhone contacts app is by syncing them through iTunes, from a supported contact application on your computer, or through an Exchange setup like Gmail. So, you will have to get these contacts into Oulook, Windows Address Book, OS X Address Book or in the "cloud".

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!

Remove the hard drive and get one of these USB hard drive adapters. http://tinyurl.com/a5l2htj Then plug the adapter into your iMac to see/retrieve the files.

If you know how to set up a computer-to-computer Ethernet network, then you can give that a try, but a hard drive will be faster than Ethernet unless you don't have a lot to transfer.

Do not use "mini" DVD's in any slot loading DVD drive.
Buy a cheap "tray loading" external DVD drive and attach it to your Mac.

What is the best way to transfer iPhoto from MacBook Pro to iMac?

What is the best way to transfer iPhoto from MacBook Pro to iMac?

the only way is 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 is the best way to transfer photos from old Macbook Pro to new Macbook Pro?

If you only need to transfer photos, connect the two Macs to the same network. Enable file sharing on both, and copy the iPhoto folder from your old Mac to the new one. Put it in your Pictures folder. This assumes you have no photos on your new MacBook Pro you wish to keep. If you do then let me know.
The first time you launch the new version of iPhoto with a Library created by an older version, it will most likely want to "upgrade your iPhoto Library". This is normal.

What's the best way to transfer files from dead MDD G4 PowerMac to new iMac desktop?

My Mirrored Drive Door 1 ghz G4 Power Mac recently stopped powering on. I have just purchased a new iMac with 2.5 ghz intel core i5. What is the best way for me to transfer the files to the new machine?
Someone on another thread recommended buying a converter cable like this one: http://www.newertech.com/products/usb2_adaptv2.php
Will I need to use transfer software too? I'd like to bring my playlists along to the new machine but don't need any of the software.
Thanks!

That will work. You could also remove the hard drive from the MDD and put it in an external enclosure so you would have it for backup.
You can use the utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, to transfer files - MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

Hi,
It is annoying when we lost our contacts on iPhone. So many people want to transfer contacts from iPhone to computer in case of losing them.
I have tested many programs to transfer my contacts from my iPhone to my computer. And I think a third party program - iPhone Contacts Backup can give you a satisfying answer. So here I recommend it to you.

What is the best way to transfer files from Windows XP to a new MacBook Pro?

I am about to make the switch from PC to Mac, but I am not completely sure how I should transfer all of my old files (Word docs, PowerPoints, Excel Sheets, pictures, etc.) over to the new Mac. I read this article, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796, and it said to download Windows Migration Assistant. It says that a new user account will be created on the Mac containing all of the transferred material. I assume that I can just pull stuff from the newly created account and put it on the main or administrative account? Also, I assume that I can delete the created account after I get everything that I want off of it, but I am new to the whole Mac thing and assuming never gets anyone anywhere. One more thing, I do not want to transfer over my email accounts from Outlook because there is some kind of problem with the way they are set up. I want to just start them completely over in Mail. The article says that the program will automatically transfer over email accounts. Is there a way to avoid that or just transfer stuff manually? If anyone has transferred files this way before, I would really appreciate any insight you can give me. Thanks!

Best way would be NOT to use any sort of migration program, just copy the files over and place them in the same Music, Pictures, Documents folders on the Mac like it is on Windows.
All you need a external USB drive you can pick up at any office or computer store, I would advise powered and either the same size or larger (not too big) than your boot drive on the Mac. So later you can make a clone of OS X, as there is NO system restore on a Mac.
Most drives are formatted MBR with a FAT32 (named "MSDOS" in Apple's Disk Utility) and can be read on a Mac just as easily.
If for some reason your external drive has been already formatted by Windows into NTFS format, then a Mac can't read it without paying for more software and having to hassle with updates, it not working etc. So format the external drive FAT (FAT32) or even exFAT on the PC first (exFAT needs a free download from Microsoft on XP machines)
When you connect the drive, simply drag and drop your files right into the same folders, this way you can control what comes over and what stays.
If you want a free program that can open your Office files without having to pay for OfficeMac, then the free LibreOffice is available and works great.

Hi, what's the best way to transfer content from a Sony dcr-sx31 to an iMac

Hi looking for some help please. I want to transfer video from my Sony dcr-sx31 to an iMac for editing and creating DVDs. I've heard that this is not straight forward so hoping someone can give me the best approach or some top tips please

Thanks for the update. The labeling around here is about as counter-intuitive as they could make it. This forum is for original iMacs with PowerPC ("PPC") processors that were made from 1998 to late 2005. All iMacs since then have Intel processors--very different beasties--so they get a separate forum here:
iMac (Intel)
That where you find your gurus when you get your new iMac. Typically, forums for older models like this get less traffic and therefore fewer eyeballs than forums for newer products,
However, you may get faster response for contacting Sony. I recall their Mac support being hit or miss depending on the product line.
for editing and creating DVDs
Also note that new iMacs come with iLife BUT iLife no longer includes the DVD creator program iDVD on preinstalled bundles. Apparently people have been able to get it by calling Apple and protesting that there computer did not ship with all the components that are in the iLife Boxed set. YMMV

What is the best way to transfer libraries from Aperture?

Hi,
Apologies for what must be an increasingly common question. I've searched the forum but all I could get were returns from early 2013 and previous. I am asking this question because the offered tool on this site has an appalling rating after 37 reviews so I will not be using that.
Any "quick fix" tool recommendations would be appreciated, tools which have been proven to work well. Also, in regard to losing saved edits which were made in Aperture (I understand they will be transferred as finalised Jpegs), I'm not overly concerned with this since I am at a place where I have finalised most, if not all, my photos which deserved the attention anyway, so even a quick way for me to get the actual files from the folder structure may be helpful, so I can import afresh?
Any other suggestions very welcome, and thank you.

If you can get it to work, most folks should use the Adobe Plugin. Although the manual method is good, especially if you tag data beforehand, you have the ability to transfer more information, more automatically, with the plugin. For example, stacks can be transferred. Adobe says Faces should work, but that piece still has bugs.
Most importantly, the plugin will allow you to copy both masters and previews (at the ore-specified, generated resolution). The manual method makes combining these difficult two, especially stacking the two.
