Confusion of account migration wizard users

• The Migration Wizard transfers the data of other users?

  My wife and I share a Mac as different "users." If I use the Migration Assistant to transfer data to my new Macbook Pro, it also transfers all of its side (documents, music, etc.)?

  I heard that Migration Wizard allows you to do this. I found it very complicated to set up and easy to make a mistake. Because I'm on several Macs that regularly require copies exact bootable I paid for and have used Carbon Copy Cloner from Mike Bombich https://bombich.com/

  Although the CCC4 ~ $40,-(il est compatible avec El Capitan) you can download a free 30 day trial. It is so easy to install and make a clone. I never had a hick-up using many times. There is a developer good reputation well known, you can contact at any time.

• Migration wizard failed

  I tried to upgrade Yosemite to El Capitan, but failed. If the local bank staff did a clean install for me. Prior to this, internal hard drive for my Mac has been saved using Time Machine, on an encrypted external hard drive. However, Time Machine is unable to restore a back ups (shows the chronology of the previous backups, but the restore button is gray). I tried to use the Migration Wizard, but he quit unexpectedly. In the process, I was prompted to create a new user account, but I'm not in / Users /.

  However, backups are visible in the directory of the external hd (My passport) structure. However, only some, not all directories are available. For example, I was able to copy Documents mailed to the internal hd hd, but Google Drive are not available. More detail in the attachments.

  Please help get access to directories is currently blocked on the external hard drive.

• migration wizard to set up the new mac

  Did a time machine at the top on an old mac and want to transfer only files in my documents folder, but not the Apps on a new machine. Two use of machines, OS ElCapitan which of the three options I have need to select Migration Wizard to minimize transfer "garbage."

  Happy Friday, nigeln!

  I understand you want to be specific about the contents of transfer when migrating from an older Mac to a newer Mac. You are in the right place for help.

  You will need to select the top option during migration: a Mac, Time Machine backup or startup disk. Then, follow the prompts to specify the data you want to transfer.

  In your case, it seems that you can uncheck the box for the Applications folder. Contents of the folder user migrate then, which includes your Documents folder. If you want to be even more precise, click the arrow next to the user account. This will give you access to the drop-down list, where you can select the user account that you want to migrate files.

• Cannot access my safe after the migration of user profile

  Hello everyone, welcome to Australia

  I have a user who migrated their user profile from windows to the field of our profile by using the small business server 2003 to connect Computer Wizard. This wizard have not migrated users or My content Safe fingerprints.
  After connection to the old account and attempts to access my safe with password backup, user could not open it.

  Is it possible for the user to access the content in the folder of the safe MYy that these documents are very important. (Take the user to back up only not ;)))

  Hmmm maybe it's not possible to access the MySafe because the laptop is a part of the domain of s.
  I guess that the laptop was not included in the field when the user has used and saved the files in my safe.
  So maybe you could try to reverse the settings and then you might try to enter the folder MySafe.

• Mail of the Mac Mini, iMac with the migration wizard

  I have a mac mini (2014 - El Capitan) that I have used for some time now and I have many mailboxes (30 +) with many stored messages (100s maybe 1000s).

  I recently picked up a 2011 27 iMac which is running OS X Sierra Final Release Candidate due to vision problems.

  Both units are working well but I would like to transfer my boxes to the letters, messages, and the account settings from the Mac Mini to the iMac using Migration Assistant to take advantage of the larger screen.

  Am I able to select only the data for e-mail (boxes letters, messages and settings) to transfer somewhere in the Migration Wizard interface or will it just to start the transfer of all?

  I use iCloud for note, calendars and contacts, but prefer not to use for e-mail.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  The simplest option would be to use Time Machine to restore your data.

  Other Options:

  You can export the folders you want to transfer the mini using export of Mail under mailbox function in the Menu bar > export a mailbox... Drag to the folder on the desktop on the new iMac and import in Mail. File > import boxes mailbox...

  You can also use a third-party application, Emailchemy to export your Mail on the mini and pull only the folders you want and import. If you have many files, it would be a faster option.

  Otherwise, you could drag on the whole Mail > V3 folder let Sierra update data. This assumes that you have already started using Mail to Sierra.

  You don't have to use iCloud email to use Apple Mail. I strongly suggest that you use IMAP to service what ever you choose to use.  Comcast, Yahoo, Gmail, AOL, Hotmail (other)

  Can I recover Contacts and messaging of an old record without using the Migration Wizard? Disc of the user in question has been very corrupted with several programs having a weird behavior.

  Yes. With the old drive mounted and available, open Mail and choose import mailboxes... from the file menu of mail. In the dialog box import data from , choose Apple Mail.

• Where is the Migration Wizard?

  I have three MacBook Pro. My most old, 5-6 years, repeated that she was seriously infected by a virus. I erased it. Now, I restart and OS X Utilities push the info, with four options: restore of backup Time Machine, reinstall OS X, Get help online or disk utility. I time Machine using my current Mac brand new, but I can't restore the old Mac directly by using the new Time Machine copies. It tells me to use the Migration Wizard. Where is he? I have yet a third Mac, a few years more recent than this one, that I can restore from reformatted. Is Time Machine restore possible? How can I find Migration Wizard with these four options on the screen? Thank you.

• Time Machine backup migration wizard

  Hello

  I have a MBP (2012 model) running OSX 10.11.6. The hard drive has encountered an error that I couldn't get (invalid node structure). After spending the better part of a day of troubleshooting, I finally erased the drive and reinstall the OS from the OSX Internet Recovery Mode option. After that I reinstalled OSX version accompanying (Mavericks), I was going to transfer all my files from my USB external time Machine drive. I checked using the Migration Wizard, and I had the opportunity to transfer any of the player. Instead, I thought I'd be better to first upgrade to el capitan (it was on 10.11.6 when it stopped working) and install the programs I use (MS Office) before the transfer, so I went through this process. Now when I try to restore the files using Migration Assistant in el Capitan, he can't seem to find the USB Time Machine backup drive - it retains just turn on "the search for Source...". "on the transfer to this Mac screen information. If I leave the Migration Wizard, the USB key is accessible in the Finder. Don't know what to do at this point, but I really need these files (years of family photos are my biggest concern about losing).

  Thank you

  Mike Camden

  OK - I've solved it. For some reason, it wouldn't find the backup disk, Time Machine in the Migration Wizard, when I plugged directly on the port of USB of MBP (although he appeared and is accessible from the Finder); However, on a whim, I plugged into the USB port on my Airport Extreme, connected my MBP to it as a shared resource on the network and is running Migration Wizard again. Migration assistant immediately found and was able to make the Time Machine restore - it took much longer overall than network he would like a USB drive, but I let it run all night, and everything was finished this morning.

• Migration wizard issues

  Hey all,.

  I have an old MacBook Pro (2008) that is running OS 10.10.5. Recently bought a new MacBook Pro, which of course turns 10.11.5. You wanted to use the Migration Wizard to move data from my old computer to the new. Here is what happened:

  Brought back by mistake a USB-to-ethernet adapter to use with the new computer. Did not work as it does not see the network. Thinking that I had all weekend, I thought that I would let turn via wi - fi. Got two computers to connect through the Migration Wizard and let the process go. After about an hour, I noticed that it would take 15 hours to transfer everything I wanted to transfer. I saw then that I needed to love at first sight to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter for the new mac and it should take much less time with a wired connected in this way. Ran and got the adapter and when I got home, I stopped in Migration Wizard.

  Now when I try to connect both computers again, I'm stuck and not in the sense that one might think. The old computer does not see the new computer at all to connect. The computer sees the old thin computer, but no matter what I do (connect directly using a crossover cable and a regular ethernet cable, or just plug them both on the same network).

  What should I do to get the old computer to see a new? It must have something to do with the abandonment of the process because we were connected for a while. I even restarted the new macbook from scratch and it still not connect.

  Any help would certainly be appreciated.

  If you try to migrate directly from the old Mac and migration has not been successful, save the old Mac with Time Machine or disk utility and try to migrate from the backup.

• Why to have latest version of applications was replaced by the earlier version after Migration Wizard

  I recently bought a new iMac running the Version OS X El Capitan entered 10.11.5 pre loaded with the latest Numbers, Keynote, iMovie, GarageBand etc applications.  Unfortunately after you run the Migration Wizard from a backup Time Machine to migrate the data from my previous iMac, apps like iMovie and GarageBand have returned back to older versions.  Please can someone tell me how I can get the latest versions that have been initially installed without having to pay for download on the App Store.  Thank you.

  Have you checked the App Store for updates? If you go to the App Store purchases tab, apps appear there? If so, try to download them again.
