So when a chap buys a new (refurbished) Mac what should he do? I have an old Mini running Mountain Lion, and a new Mini running El Capitan. As the new Mini will not run the software versions I prefer, (Aperture, iMovie HD, Affinity Designer, Pages, and something else I forget), I bought a refurbished 27" iMac mid 2010 with 3TB hard drive and 32 GB of memory, running Mountain Lion. 2018-02-08T20:11:32+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1544#7388 Euan Williams info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Clone the old Mini with your preferred software to the iMac??? 2018-02-10T16:33:54+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1544#7400 Tony Still info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Probably equivalent to Euan's suggestion but: Ensure that the new Mac's OS X etc is up to date, then use Migration Assistant to copy your apps and files? 2018-02-11T10:41:30+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1544#7406 Eric Jervis info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Thank you Euan and Tony, I shall do that today using Migration Assistant.
