    Be aware that you have to disconnect your old Mac from iCloud before you start cleaning it up. I didn't know that they were linked. I deleted off the old and it did the same to the new. I lost files because of this.

    Couple of questions for you kind sir.
    1. Does it matter if the old mac is real old like a 2011 MacBook to a new modern mac?
    2. Is there a way to use ethernet connection for both mac’s to speed up the process?

    • @DionMedia
      @DionMedia  10 месяцев назад +2

      Great questions. First if you are coming from an old Mac, my advice would be to update it to the newest IOS possible which will maximize the best transfer possible. I have not done it with a gap that large, but try. For your second question. See the section on the Thunderbolt cable and do the process with an ethernet cable. It should speed up the process a lot.

    My old laptop (hasn’t frozen), but it does say “transferring settings, will take 20 minutes”, and that was 7 hours ago and it still says this…. It hasn’t frozen but the progress bar hasn’t moved either. Do you think it’s hopeful of continuing to do something?

    Hi Dion, great and clear video! Thanks a lot.
    I got a new MacBook Air M2 and used the migration assistant to transfer the data from my MacBook Pro 2014. This all worked, but I do have problems with office licenses on the new Mac, among other things. I would actually like to erase my new macbook air again to do a clean install and start "fresh".
    Is it possible to just log out from icloud and erase the new macbook air? The data will still be on my old MacBook Pro, right? And can I also only use the migration assistant to, for example, transfer the photos later?

    • @DionMedia
      @DionMedia  8 месяцев назад

      Hi, sorry for the belated reply. There are more aspects to your question. It is possible to erase your new MacBook Air and start from scratch. There are many good tutorial videos that will help you with this process. Then from there, if you want to transfer specific files. Best is to select them manually and transfer them to an external drive, from there manually to your new computer. In regard to office licenses I have experienced something similar. It depends on the app, but you might have to buy an additional license.

    Hello awesome vid. Here is my question. I have a 2021 14" Macbook pro max(little over 1 year old) running sonoma. I'm trading it in for a new 16" Macbook pro running Sonoma. I noticed you began the migration assistant using wi fi then just switched to usb c cable( I have a usb c thunderbolt 3 cable) to initially begin the migration assistant with wifi to get it started then just plug in the cable? Does the data transfer just automatically switch over to cable or is there something else I need to do? That seemed to be what you did. My new mac will be here next wed and I have 14 days to ship back the old 14". Also would a usb c thunderbolt 4 cable be even faster than a 3? Thank you

    • @DionMedia

    When transferring the data, does that also include purchased photo editing software like Lightroom or Luminar Neo etc?

      Yes, sometimes you will need to relog into your account, like with Lightroom

    When you say they are mirrors now. I have and old 2013 MacBook Pro with Catalina porting over to a new MacBook Pro Sonoma 14.4 Mirror would mean what in this context? Thank you

    Hey Buddy, one question. I use all the Apple Office applications on my old MacBook but when I ordered it two years ago, Iit was delivered with Windows Office Suit and Final Cut Pro pre installed. When I migrate from my old Mac to the new, will it also transfer those applications and will I be able to use them on the new Mac without issues? Thank you 🙏

    do I connect the USB C cable between the two Macs right from the beginning? In the video the Macs were connected a little later.

    I will be migrating from an 9yr old MacBook Pro which operates on OS Catalina to a new MacBook Air. Migrating will not replace the new apps with the older apps?

    hi! i love this tutorial and it honestly helped me so much however during the information transferring process, the number of files transferred has been stuck on the same number for an hour and there is no movement and the time remaining keeps increasing. What should I do?

      HI, overlooked this one. I assume it has been fixed by now. My advice would have been to wait a bit longer or to try again. Most of the time it goes in the first attempt, but not always

    Question: If you use a USB-C cable to expedite the transfer of data from one MacBook Air to another is it necessary that the computers be on the same WiFi network?

    • @DionMedia
      @DionMedia  9 месяцев назад

      No, you have to activate the new of course, but after that the process should function

    For some reason I can’t get thunderbolt to be recognized during migration. I have restarted the process 5 times and have both MacBook plugged in to the wall plus tethered together with another thunderbolt cord. I’ve restarted both etc.

    How about transfer of files from MacBook ProRD (2015) which only has USB A? Can I use USB A to USB C cable for connecting old Mc with the new MacBook Pro M3?

    Thank you for sharing! How about the Mac OS system? My old iMac has Catalina. The new iMac should have the latest OS system.
