migartion sharepoint web application sharepoint 2013 to sharepoint online

actually i tried to migrate lists and document libraries from one site to another site in sharepoint 2013 and migrate sites also from 2010 to sharepoint 2013. But,I want to migrate web application from sharepoint 2013 to sharepoint online.
We are limited to creating Site collections only in SharePoint online. You cannot create/migrate the complete web application to SharePoint online in one go. You would have to migrate either a complete site collection or site level.
I have experience migrating with SharePoint migration tool from Microsoft (which is free software) and it worked well.
However, i would suggest to migrate individual site level as it would be easy to manage. I have tried migrating a site collection which failed after 40% and it was difficult to debug where the error was. I later figured it was the nintex form on a document library that was a culprit.
Good luck with your project!

Now I wanted to create SharePoint 'Custom WebPart' in Office 365 online without using Visual Studio 2010,2012,2013.
Please Guide me on this by providing some reference links for creating "Custom WebParts" in Office 365 Online and how can i use created web parts.
Edited:
Are there any online tools or sharepoint apps like 'NAPA' available for develop custom Web Parts online?
You can create sandbox solutions with SharePoint online.
But in SharePoint 2013 You can do many things just with Content Editor Web Part, javascript and REST services. And with search and display templates.
We are using such technics with our on-premise SharePont 2013. And its cover all our needs. Client Object Model and REST services cover almost all SharPoint features. For content processing you can use Content by Search Web Part with display templates. For UI you can use javascript components like JQuery UI.

How to create customized web parts using sharepoint designer 2007?

I want to create a new customized web part through sharepoint designer not using the default one. Can anyone tell me is this possible to do it in sharepoint designer? or do I need any other software to do this?
Generally speaking, SharePoint designer doesn't do custom web parts. You can do some work with dataview web parts to retrieve data from external systems, but for the most part you need Visual Studio to create a custom web part. Here is a basic tutorial.

Sharepoint 2010: publishing reports?

I know that Sharepoint 2010 will store almost everything into its databases. We have a reporting application and we would like to publish our reports into Sharepoint 2010. We don't have any integration kit for Sharepoint 2010. What options do we have? Can we publish our reports into Sharepoint database or how this should be implemented?
From your question, I can't tell if you want a programmatic solution or not. Either way, you can store your reports into a SharePoint Document Library
A) By manually uploading the reports to the SharePoint Document Library
or
B) By creating a simple app or web service to do the job for you

How to develop a Central Administration-Feature in SharePoint 2010?

Hallo,
i need to create a feature for the Central Administration in SharePoint 2010, but i do not know how to do that. I have found websites like SharePoint Tip #26. Do you know “How to create Central Administration feature”? or SharePoint Central Administration Feature, but they refer to SharePoint 2007 and not to SharePoint 2010.
Are there any websites, books, etc. that teach how to create a Central Administration feature in SharePoint 2010 ?
Thanks!
Creating Central Admin pages in SharePoint 2010 works identical to 2007. The main difference is that the IDs for the menu locations (Where the link will be located in central admin) is completely different.
Have a look at my series about porting a 2007 SharePoint app to 2010. It deals with this topic.
You you can just activate any your features in central admin manually if you like. (If you have deployed your solution also to that web application)
And would that AutoActivateInCentralAdmin be deprecated in 2010?
