Transfer from broken old Mac

I have a MacBook that the screen is cracked in some spots. Bought a new one to transfer to but I can’t see all the prompts. Is there any other way?

Mirror the Screen to an External Display:

Performing the following will mirror the Home Screen, and allow you to use it as if it were you laptop's screen.

  • Without Touchbar: Hold Down [command + F1]
  • With Touchbar: Hold Down: [command + dull screen]


HDMI is like the cable you use. So use either of these adapters, given you have the port:

USB-C: Belkin USB-C to HDMI Adapter - Apple
