If you were using Wi-Fi, please stop it by restarting the computer. Then connect the Time Machine backup from the old computer to the new computer using a USB cable and then launch Migration Assistant on the new Mac. Why do it this way, simple it works 100% of the time!!!!!!!!!!!

You only need an adapter, you can find them on Amazon for about $9 or you can visit your local Best Buy and get one.

Are you transferring over Wi-Fi?

Hello and thank you. Am I missing something. My old Mac has ports for usb 2. Does that mean I have to get a new cable -usb 2 one end and usb3 the other
Apple tech support said if I restart it could do some damage - to just et it run through the migration!
but thanks. Still will get an adapter. Thanks again
