new forum , brand new mac user here... i'm opening thread in appropriate place.
have packed old pc in moving container (long story) have retained hard drive. have music collected years on drive, , have been using itunes pc. after many years have decided try mac book (mainly because of best screen quality i've ever seen, that's different topic)
so, have drive, have enclosure, connected usb - next? how move in music files?
opened finder, cannot see directory structure or similar - looks dumb, thing can see 'movies' or 'pictures'.
now, given background linux os (windows dislike microsoft , philosophy), , having read mac os based on unix, puzzled , wondering how following things, if possible @ all? expecting much?
- how open command prompt (is there command prompt?)
- how see file structure in finder. massive able see home directory!
- how see os system files?
- when connect external drive, how see in finder?
- able read pc hard drive @ all?
- if not, there chance import music other way?
lot start with, in hoping valuable answers, closing first post now. cheers
/appications/utilities/terminal.app, shouldn't try until familiar mac basics.
these happen automatically, don't have anything.
yes, plug in. if ntfs format, read only, can read-write ntfs driver mac os x if need it. can drag , drop files straight onto itunes if worked itunes windows.
i recommend learning mac basics first.
