Migration Assistant

migration assistant (MA) running for 15 hours. From: 2011 MacBook Pro/High Sierra To: 2018 MacBook Pro/Mojove. Wondering if moving 475gb of data should take this long, or if this is normal.


  • no error messages
  • progress bar almost to the end
  • both units spinning wheel (not rainbow, just network spinning wheel)


At what point do I terminate the process?


Thanks....

MacBook Pro

Yes I would terminate it. In my experience a migration never took more than an hour to complete. Are you connecting the two computers via Wi-Fi or a network? If so connect them with a USB cable and all should go well. Good luck.
