Q: Deleting iTunes playlists
I backed up my old mac and then transferred the data to my new mac. Am I okay to delete the iTunes playlists on my old mac to free up storage? I don't want to lose the songs on my new mac.
MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2016), OS X El Capitan (10.11.4), New mac has OS X El Capitan 10.11.5

If the data has been transferred to your new Mac, it's perfectly okay to delete the iTunes playlist on your old Mac. If you use iTunes, there will a copy of your music on the iTunes desktop. You can also find it in (user)/Music/iTunes Music.
However, in the interest of safety, urge any Mac user to keep a backup of important or valuable files as a backup.
