[Finale] Switching computers and data transfer
Ok. perhaps one of you computer mavins can help...I am technologically challanged, to say the least. I am presently running Finale 2001 on a Power Mac 6500/275, OS 8.1 ( I know, I know...ancient). My daughter is giving me her I Mac, OS 10.3, in hopes of bringing me into the present century. When I get the I Mac, I want to upgrade to Finale 2004 (compatible, I understand, with the OS X). Problem: (a) My present 2001 upgrade CD will not load onto her I Mac, because, it's an upgrade. When I purchase the 2004 upgrade, I'm sure it would not load to the I Mac for the same reason. Will Finale, in your opinion, give me a whole new (not the upgrade version) CD for 2004 for the same price as the upgrade version ($99)? (b) If I do receive a usuable version of 2004 from Coda, how do I transfer my old Finale files to the new I Mac? My old computer only backs up via a Zip Drive, and the I Mac only accepts CD roms. There may be an easy answer to this, but I'm way to stupid to know it. Any help would be gratefully accepted.

I don't know about Macs, but in a similar situation, Windows XP would not load the driver for my old serial Zip 100 (or, to put it another way, the driver knew nothing of XP, so couldn't insert itself into the right place). I got a USB connected Zip 250, which reads and writes at 100 Mbyte capacity also. This is more convenient for a portable, as it draws its power from the USB port, whereas the old Zip needs mains. Also, you do need a serial port on the new computer, but I have that on mine. -- Ken Moore [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web site: http://www.mooremusic.org.uk/ I reject emails > 100k automatically: warn me beforehand if you want to send one ___ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Philip, (Hopefully, I don't confuse Dean too much)Don't you need a cross-over cable to do that with older macs? Or is that a function of 10.3? I know that my g5 doesn't need a cross-over, but my g3 laptop does. Dean, a cross-over cable is a special kind of network cable that has one end wired in reverse of the other. Older machines weren't smart enough to figure out that if you plug a regular old network cable into two machines, they could talk to each other. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Philip Aker Sent: Thursday, July 08, 2004 5:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Finale] Switching computers and data transfer On Saturday, Jul 3, 2004, at 21:52 America/Vancouver, Dean Estabrook wrote: > (b) If I do receive a usuable version of 2004 from Coda, how do I > transfer my old Finale files to the new I Mac?

RE: [Finale] Switching computers and data transfer
Dean-- Walmart does carry a few things like that. It saved my butt when I was working in Prairie du Chein, WI (2 hours from a city of any size) with a mac laptop with out a floppy drive or wireless internet and needed to email a file. Just plug it into an available USB port. The port will be the same type as the one that you plug the keyboard into. You won't even need to plug it into the wall, the drive gets its power from the computer. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dean Estabrook Sent: Friday, July 09, 2004 1:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Finale] Switching computers and data transfer >Nab a USB Zip100 drive at Wal-Mart (or your favorite computer store) >for $35-40.

Does Walmart really carry that sort of stuff? to which I might add, it doesn't matter which USB port one plugs into; it is plug and play, hot-swappable [that is, you can plug it in, and unplug it without powering down] technology. As to whether Wal Mart carries this stuff, it is my experience that the further in the wilds one is, the more computer stuff Wal Mart carries. Urban stores, such as here in Dallas, carry a little; rurul stores, like 120 miles north in Durant, OK, carry a much wider selection of computer stuf. BUT, for my money, unless time is crucial, I'd first check the iomega on-line store; remanufactured USB-ZIP 100's sell at a discount, with new warranty. But you might also consider different back-up technology; ZIP-250's will read ZIP 100 disks, and my preference would probably be to go to a USB CD-RW drive at this point. ns ___ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

There are different kinds of interfaces for the little flash card readers ($10-$20), so it's easy to pass a 256MB flash card ($40-$60) card from machine to machine.

Re: [Finale] Switching computers and data transfer
First, what type of G3. Does it have USB? If it doesn't, and it has a PCI slot, I'd suggest getting a cheap (like $20) USB card from MacSales.com, and then you have a couple of options on transferring files. You could then get a HD that has USB and move files that way, or you could get a CDR drive and move files. Another option would be to ethernet them. I believe G3s have built in Ethernet. My 9500 does, and it was a PPC 604. You could go get a hub/switch, some cables, and ethernet them. On the OS X machine, you'd go to System Preferences, Networking, and Personal FileSharing. Then on the OS 9/8 one, go to Chooser and find the OS X computer there Another option would be to get a firewire/usb enclosure, and taking out the HD of the G3, and connecting it to the newer computer and moving files that way. This way is a little more risky and involved John Howell wrote: You're right, if anyone can help you, it's probably someone here. I find myself in the same kind of predicament, unfortunately.

Re: [Finale] Switching computers and data transfer
Hi John, Your beige G3 can communicate quite easily with your TiBook, and the different OS's are simply not a problem. There are any number of options (some of which have been discussed already): 1) Connect them directly with an Ethernet crossover cable, then connect via AppleTalk or TCP/IP. 2) Connect them each to an Ethernet hub or router, then connect via AppleTalk or TCP/IP. 3) If the computers are already hooked up via Ethernet to your university network (which I assume they are), you can skip (1) or (2) because they are already connected to the same network, and you can just mount your G3's HD on you PB via AppleTalk or TCP/IP. 4) If you can't figure out how to get AppleTalk or TCP/IP working, there are probably public folders on your university's server that you can copy your files to, and access from both computers. 5) Assuming both computers have Ethernet access, email the files to yourself as attachments. 6) Buy an inexpensive FireWire PCI card for the beige G3, get an external FireWire HD, and transfer the files using that. 7) Buy an inexpensive USB card for the beige G3, and use USB flash cards. Or an external USB CD burner. Or a USB ZIP. Or even (not recommended, but possible) a USB floppy drive. Any USB device, really.
