Move All Your Stuff to a New Mac — Quick

In the past, if you bought a new Mac, moving all your files, music, photos, and well...everything from your old Mac to your new Mac was quite a production, and I saw it reduce many an NFL lineman to tears.

Well, in Tiger, that's all a thing of the past. Now, when it's time to make the "big move," just connect the two Macs with a FireWire cable, then go to your new Mac and look inside the Applications folder, then go to the Utilities folder, where you'll find an application called Migration Assistant. Double-click on it and since it's an assistant, it will lead you through a series of screens with questions about what you want to do. (Don't worry, they're pretty simple questions; however, some of the most critical questions are entirely in French. Kidding.) That's it — answer the questions and it'll make the move (including copying your settings for things like email, bookmarks and more).
