Which is the best way to migrate from aperture to lightroom?

Hello everybody,
I have been using the Aperture trial for some time and I found it interesting.
Unfortunately in the meanwhile Lion came out and I find it ugly. Although I do not want to discuss about Lion here I plan to move away from Apple as soon as my 2007 iMac stops working, so I moved to applications supported by other OSs (Preview->Acrobat reader, iWorks->MSOffice, Mail->Thunderbird and so on). I am also going to buy Lightroom, that will also work on my new Win7 laptop I had to buy for a new job.
My question is: is there a way to quickly migrate my Aperture library to Lightroom or should I reimport all the original photos into it?
Thank you for your attention
Stefano

I realize this topic is old but doens't appear to be answered.

I agree. I went the adobe way. I love my MBPr though.

I wrote about why I think it's better for photos here why it's better for video (for fusion videographers only) here, why I switched here, and how to switch here with this associated video tutorial for switching.
Those posts list the pros and cons between the two.

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).

Which one is the best way in migration from sap bpc ms 5.1 to nw7.5

Hi,
I am doing Migration project from SAP BPC MS to NW.
In this which one is the best way migrating By manually or By using SAP Migration tool.
What are the merits and demarits migrating by manually.
The data is moving from MS to NW as it is by using sap migration tool.
Could you please answer my questions as early as possible.

Hi,
You would need manual effort anyways. Some of the objects are not either migrated or you need to update manually after the migration. Example, reports have to be modifed and as they may not work due to some of the options.
Also your packages, script logic etc have to recreated. So its upto you as the migration toosl takes across your appset, applications, dimensions and the master data etc. The manual involvement is inevitable. You need to probably take what the tool allows you to do and make manual corrections for the objects that are not supported.
Thanks,
Sreeni

What is the best way to migrate from Forms to ADF?

We are in a big quagmire. Our company has been into Oracle Forms development for over 15 years. We have applications developed in Forms 6i and 10g. We have about 5 products and these 5 products have about 25 to 30 different versions. i.e. we maintain about 30 different versions of our applications. Each version of the application has about 100 forms and 100 reports.
Now, since Forms has come to the End of life from 11g we want to move to ADF. We tried Forms to ADF migration tools but failed. So now we have decided to manually rewrite the applications in ADF.
Our Forms / PL/SQL developers, designers and analysts (total about 40) are all Oracle Forms people. They have no experience in Java.
What I want to know is:
(1.) What is the BEST way to achieve this?
(2.) Do we have to learn Java, JSF and ADF?? (i.e. All 3)?
(3.) Is it mandatory to learn JSF??
(4.) Assuming, comprehensive training can be given, how long will it take for Forms people to learn ADF?
(5.) What type of training will be required?? (Java, JSF, ADF, JDeveloper etc.)
(6.) How LONG will this take? i.e. to train all 40 and then get rewrite an application of 100+ forms and 100+ reports? (Ballpark is OK).
(7.) Any other technologies we should learn??
Edited by: user12240205 on Jul 18, 2012 5:48 AM

Obvoiusly the longer you have for training the better but I think the minimum would be
1) Java skills - I think to start off, 1 or two days reading something like Head First Java http://www.amazon.com/Head-First-Java-Kathy-Sierra/dp/0596009208
2) I'd then get "The Quick Start Guide to Fusion Development" http://www.amazon.com/Quick-Start-Oracle-Fusion-Development/dp/0071744282/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1343201618&sr=1-1&keywords=jdeveloper+quick (declaration: I'm the author so have a vested interest, but I still think its a good place to start. - this should be about 2-3 days to read and also to try things out.
3) In parallel I'd be watching these ADF Insider Basics http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/adfinsider-093342.html#a1 - a couple of hours
4) I'd then try this tutorial http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/jdev/obe11jdev/ps1/ria_application/developriaapplication_long.htm - 3 hours.
5) Optionally, if you are coming from a Forms background I would also read http://download.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/jdeveloper/11gdemos/SummitADF/SummitADF_Redevelopment.pdf and watch http://download.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/jdeveloper/11gdemos/Forms_Redevelopment_ADF/Forms_Redevelopment_ADF.html - which is about 2 hours of work.
I think this would be the absolute MINIMUM to at least be able to build some basic applications and to start feeling your way - everything else outlined in the "ADF COLLATERAL TOUR" http://download.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/jdeveloper/11gdemos/ADFTour/ADFTour.html could be learned as you start building some proof of concept. However, I'd wouldn't suggest you try building a real application with only one weeks exposure (in the same way I wouldn't expect you to design a product database with only one week training). I would probably expect your developers to have at least the above training and then spend about a month or so (minimum) building proof of concepts (or testing themselves with the ADF Insider Essentials Tasks). Furthermore, I'd probably expect you to have at least on senior developer/architect, with much more experience who can be making decisions on things like reuse, partitioning, architecture etc.
Of course, this is all subjective but I hope it helps.
regards
Grant
ps
Of course, we also have formal Oracle University Training courses which you could attend (or they can be purchased to watch on line).

Which is the best way to migrate the SQL SERVER 2000 Database to SQL SERVER 2003 Database?

Hi,
I need to migrate the Production database sql server 2000 to Sql server 2003, Please give me the best idea to migrate the database without any loss data, credentials and Objects.
Nandha Kumar

SQL server does not have any version named SQL server 2003 please check the version correctly it should be either SQL 2005,2008,2008 R2,2012
You can use the backup/restore to upgrade the SQL 2000 database to till SQL 2005,2008,2008R2
For SQL Server 2000 to 2012
First upgrade from SQL 2000 database to either SQL 2005, 2008 or 2008R2 and than upgrade it to SQL 2012.
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/eaa1eb44-729f-466b-8233-cb768fbb4208/upgrading-to-sql-server-2008-from-sql-server-2000?forum=sqlsetupandupgrade

And after migration to SQL 2005 or 2008, if you want to script the database than can generate scripts pick DB and check off "script all objects in the selected database".

You can upgrade from SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008, and SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012.

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.

Having trouble migrating from old Macbook to new Macbook Pro with Retina Display.

Which is the best way of exporting from FCE HD to DVD?

I've been quite disappointed with the results I've been getting while burning DVD's. I've been exporting some really nice looking DV footage out of FCE HD and into Toast Titanium, where it's then burnt. Everything works well apart from the slightly pixelated result. Although I'm shooting in DV, I thought a good quality, new camera would give better results then I seem to be getting. I've exported the finished footage in Quicktime, and in Dv Stream formats, but both these seem to compress my footage. Can I export uncompressed? How do I do this?, and will Toast Titanium then be able to handle it? Many thanks.

Exporting it uncompressed will make no difference. The material has already been compressed when it was shot. It's sounds like Toast isn't encoding the material very well. I've never heard anyone say it has a great encoder. iDVD5's is supposed to be better, and you can get better results with care using Compressor or Bit Vice.

The best way to migrate image library and Lightroom settings form PC to Mac?

I want to migrate my image library and Lightroom Catalogs and settings over to my new Mac Pro. My images are currently on a separate external drive, whilst my Lightroom Catalogs and settings are on my old PC.
My intention is to situate my entire image library on it's own dedicated drive, which is one of the four separate drives on the Mac (in this instance, drive 4). I have also installed Lightroom 3 onto drive 1 (the same drive as the OS and all other applications, including CS5). I bought this as an upgrade to LR2, which is on my PC.
My questions are:
(a) How do I transfer my LR2 Catalogs and settings housed on my PC, over to LR3 on the Mac?
(b) Once the library has been moved, what do I need to do to get Lightroom to find them?

(a) How do I transfer my LR2 Catalogs and settings housed on my PC, over to LR3 on the Mac?
Simply copy them. When you launch the LR2 catalog in LR3 you will be prompted to convert it to a version 3 catalog. This will create a duplicate. Once you are satisfied all is well you can delete the version 2 catalog.
(b) Once the library has been moved, what do I need to do to get Lightroom to find them?
Control click on the topmost folder and direct lightroom to the current location of the folder on the external drive. All images in subfolders should sync nicely.

What is the best way to migrate zoning from an MDS9216i to a Nexus 5596?

I am migrating from a MDS9216i to a Nexus 5596. We have dual paths, so I can migrate one leg at a time and the full function for these switches is fiber channel attached storage.
What is the best way to migrate the zoning information? I have been told I can ISL the new and old switch together and then push the zoning to the new switch. Is that better than just cutting and pasting the zoning information to the new switch?
Also, I have to move four Brocade M4424 switches to the new switches - they are currently attached via interop mode 1, but will now be attached using NPIV. Has anyone done this before, and did you have any issues?
Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

What is the best way to migrate PSE6 Catalog (Wxp) to new computer W7, PSE11?

What is the best way to migrate PSE6 Catalog (Wxp) to new computer W7, PSE11? Previous PSE6 recovery (Wxp) after a failed HD resulted in pictures showing but not opening due to connection issues. Had to restore pictures from backup and rebuild the catalog and albums. Found a third party fix afterwards that has no support past PSE8. Trying to make this migration to PSE11 painless.

That's a very common and classical situation :
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html
Just make sure that your backup to the external drive is ok : you should find a 'backup.tly' file in the folder.
Use the PSE11 organizer to restore from the PSE7 backup : the first step restores all your media files, the second automatically does a catalog conversion to the PSE11 format.
Read the note in the above link about restoring from XP to ulterior Win OS. You can also restore to a 'custom' location. For instance in a 'C:\My new library' folder. Make sure that master folder is accessible to all users, and if you want, you can move the catalog (database) itself from that location to the default location : catalog manager, option to move catalogs to location accessible to all users.

I meant RECORDS instead of REGISTERS.Maybe that is where you are going wrong, records are for putting on turntables.
