[QUOTE="Lamboom, post: 1774679, member: 142552"] [b]Target **** mode[/b] Wow.. So many comments.. Thanks Much! I may be jumping in at the wrong place.. But I did try Target disk mode using the Ethernet cable.. But, that didn't work.. Now.. a CROSSOVER Ethernet is interesting! I have some :-), and tomorrow, I'll have a FW400 to FW800 adapter firewire setup to try... in Target disk mode. I have been having fun transferring movies and still pics via a USB thumb drive... Methinks Pigoo3 is correct The G4 is a pedestal Mac (10.5.8) & the 27" Late 2009 ...is !0.10.5 so,, Migration Asst is not likely to work... When both are connected (wired) to the LAN .. they both show up .. on the IP scanner; however, I'm a bit clueless at having one computer interact with another over the network.. I'm lucky to print a document using a printer on the network.. sending a file from one Mac to another Mac (with different OS) is way outside my pay grade. Best Regards, Michael [/QUOTE]
