Migrate from iMac G5 w/Leopard to iMac (Intel) w/Tiger
I'm giving my daughter my 2007 iMac Intel. It came with Tiger and the upgrade dvd to Leopard, and I have since upgraded it to Lion.
Her iMac G5 (PPC) is running Leopard.
I erased the 2007 iMac so she would have a clean install from the backup of her G5. However, I don't know how I can upgrade the Intel back to at least Leopard so I can migrate her data and they would both have the same OS for the transfer. Can you transfer data from Leopard down to Tiger? It doesn't seem like that would be a good idea.
Can I just make a dummy account to do the Leopard upgrade and delete it later? Will that affect the migration of her stuff, home folder, user name?
Thanks, Sandy
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
