[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1906176, member: 204485"] Hi Ian, because I did not have the necessary cables but did have plenty of time it seemed worth a try. Charlie had recommended the method and all having just done a data transfer for Annie's new iPhone 13 in much the same way I thought why not give it a go. It really is pretty seamless. You just follow the prompts on each device. Initially the process was estimated to take 4 hrs and 49 min but it ended up being just a bit over two hrs. I did nothing on the M1 other than set the language and login to my 5G WiFi band. Both devices were running Monterey so I did not bother to setup an account on the M1 just proceeded with the Migration. After completion the M1 updated to macOS 12.3 The 14" screen really does make a difference, I can increase the zoom on my browser and still fit in the same amount of content. The sound is brilliant compared to the 2015 MBP and I'm very happy not to have the Touch Strip. Unexpectedly Apple decided to keep the Touch ID on the power button which is really handy. I usually unlock with my Apple Watch but now I can add Annies fingerprint to this device just as I have mine on her 2018 MBP. I'm not going to go into performance, I'm sure you can imagine.;) [/QUOTE]
