When I migrated from a PC to my first Mac I simply dragged the data I wanted onto and external HD, plugged the drive into the Mac and dragged the files onto the Mac. However, Apple recommends Move your data from a Windows PC to your Mac and note the section called If you have issues moving your data as there are likely some settings on the PC you are missing.


Good luck!
