2nd User Account on Mac after transfer from PC? I transferred files from my old PC to my new Mac, which already had my user account created, tied to my Apple ID. Once the files were transferred, it saved them on my Mac under a new user account, which migration assistant prompted me to make in order to transfer files. Is there a way to transfer them to my existing Mac user account? Now I have 2 users on my Mac, both me, but one has the transferred files from PC and the one I used doesn't. Forgive me, new to Mac.
