Hi Martin,
To use firewire transfer, you need to have started one one the
computers in
Target mode - that way it just shows up as an external firewire
drive on the
other machine.
For the way you describe, ie to use the iMac to do the work, you
need to
start the e-mac in target mode. To do that, just hold down the "T" key
whilst you boot up or restart the eMac. It should startup with a blank
screen apart from the firewire symbol drifting around the screen.
You should then be able to see a new external drive (with the name
of the
eMac harddrive) on the iMac.
HTH
Cheers
Neil

Hi Everyone
I have an I-MC RUNNING 10.4.11 AND AN e- Mac running 10.4.11 as
well.I linked both machines with an firewire and try to transfer
my i-
Tunes library to the e-mac .
Can't find the e-mac in FINDER window on I-Mac.
How can I make sure that only the songs which are not on the e-mac
get imported.
Thanks a lot Martin
