Q: I have a new mac book pro, i need to copy my stuff from my old mac book pro
hi all, i have just splashed the cash and got myself a new mac book pro, without the DVD drive.
I would now like to transfer all my stuff from my old mac book pro, the easiest and quickest way possible.
while i was in the shop spending my money, the fella told me i can do it by connecting the two computers together via Firewire/Thunderbolt and using Time Machine !.
I have a Firewire/Thunderbolt adapter and a Firewire Cable :-)
But i would like to have somebody, somewhere point me in the right direction so that i dont mess up, i havent done this, this way before, is there Step by Step details anywhere please, i am unable to find any info anywhere else !
Thanks for looking and if you can help/advise so much the better :-)

I just went thru a similar situation. Replaced my iMac with a new Macbook Pro. I used Apple's Migration Assistant. Piece of cake!
