I Have a New Mac

If you’re a Mac user and you want to upgrade to a new iMac or MacBook, you can use several methods to get your data across and basically pick up where you left off and keep working.

The easiest method is to use Migration Assistant.
​

Transfer to a new Mac with Migration Assistant
​
Use Migration Assistant to copy some or all of your content from one Mac to another Mac.

What does Migration Assistant do?

Migration Assistant transfers documents, apps, user accounts and settings from one Mac to another. It doesn’t delete information from your old Mac or replace the operating system (macOS) on your new Mac.

Migration Assistant can also transfer from a Time Machine backup or transfer from a Windows PC.

• Connect both old and new devices to the same WiFi.
• Run Migration assistant on the Old
• Go through the setup process on your new and tell it to get data from your old Mac device.
• Create a new User Account and password and hit go

This may take some time depending on how much data you need to transfer.
