Q: Migration from MacBook El Capitan to new MacBook

I am trying to migrate using Firewire  to Thunderbolt to migrate my data from a 2010 MacBook Pro running OSX El Capitan to a new MacBook Pro presumably running same OSX. The Migration Assistant was turned on in the 2010 MacBook. I am using the Wizard to step through the setup on the new MacBook Pro. It prompted me to input my Apple ID. The activity is now stuck at this point with dialog boxes on the 2010 MacBook indicating data is being transfered. The new MacBook Pro is not moving off the turning gear next to the Apple ID password input form. I cannot get out of this mode by pressing continue or esc. Any ideas?

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), OSX 10.11.4
