William is of course quite right - I do not need all that old junk and the stuff that I am transferring is just going into an 'old junk' file because I know I will need some of it soonish.<br /><br />The music is a different matter because unless I transfer this I cannot sync my iPods with iTunes - and need to download new music I buy into the iMac.<br /><br />I am indeed creating a very tidy file system. <br /> I have a sound backup strategy and will report on this.Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11283813317560446754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-10660734203087292212010-05-05T10:54:35.692-04:002010-05-05T10:54:35.692-04:00Phillip: In my humble opinion, it's possible t...Phillip: In my humble opinion, it's possible that transferring archives of all kinds from your old PC to your Macintosh is <b><i>not</i></b> necessarily the most urgent and worthwhile task that you should be carrying out at present. For the moment, your new machine is in a pristine state, free of all forms of corrupt software and data. You should take advantage of this lovely moment of purity to establish a profound relationship with the new computer… instead of immediately clogging its arteries with tons of ancient stuff. You can survive for a few weeks without your thousands of songs and old files, while you explore the virgin machine, and get yourself organized. For example: Have you started to create a set of well-named basic folders in your Documents directory, so that you'll be able to store things away neatly as soon as they come into existence? If you don't do this from the outset, then your Macintosh desktop will soon be transformed into a huge bloody mess, where you can no longer find anything. Have you decided upon a sound backup strategy? Have you started to get to know the Pages tool, for writing? Have you started to look into the ideal tool to use for handling photos in the context of <b><i>Vienna for Dummies</i></b>? Are you in fact using the Macintosh already to create posts for your blog? (If so, then congratulations!) Many questions come to mind, and I'm a little alarmed to find you lamenting the absence of an ancient song…William Skyvingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10052367756561555096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-62771363994677437912010-05-05T10:30:10.551-04:002010-05-05T10:30:10.551-04:00I wondered why you never call me anymore...I wondered why you never call me anymore...Wanderlusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12099758957492165428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-74091868655033609772010-05-05T07:32:30.481-04:002010-05-05T07:32:30.481-04:00My darling, my sweet, my precious .. have you trie...My darling, my sweet, my precious .. have you tried resynching your iPhone with your old Windowns PC to get the information back on to the iPhone? PK says you will have already taken the Windows PC out to the rubbish by now, but I do not think you will have.

The music is straight out of Mozart, while the lyrics are frankly Shakespearean. But there's a risk in putting this kind of stuff onto a powerful Macintosh, as it might interfere with the operating system and/or the machine's famous "core". Fragile human brains, too, could be attacked by Chad Morgan's song. But I hope that Badger will be happy once again, now that his old Aussie friend has been brought back to the fold.William Skyvingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10052367756561555096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-39108211414239239242010-05-05T06:09:05.271-04:002010-05-05T06:09:05.271-04:00`like a stoned snail crawling through marmalade...`like a stoned snail crawling through marmalade'<br /><br />love it!Merlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16016902664632768908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-89608665680333245472010-05-05T04:41:35.835-04:002010-05-05T04:41:35.835-04:00I've tracked down two copies of the lost perfo...I've tracked down two copies of the lost performance here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zUx6YGt7rE<br />And here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWfFFMcfEt4&NR=1PKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11204337758789880215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-75589279985247561712010-05-05T04:31:28.349-04:002010-05-05T04:31:28.349-04:00Anyone can see those Apples are second hand...
