I just ordered the following: Unibody MBP 15"..W/ 2.8 C2D and 7200 RPM HD
24 "Cinema Display
Time Capsule
Various other goodies - Including CS4 extended
Everything will be here by the end of the week or early the following week and I'd like to be ready so I have the first of what I am sure will be MANY questions considering I have been a PC user for 25 years.
- I have a WD Mybook 500GB drive with my backup files on it (MS Office)....I will be using them on the new MBP. Can I use that drive to copy the files to my MBP? I used Memeo backup to back it up...Will that transfer over or should I just re-copy the files using drag and drop and then copy over the the new machine?
- I've never backed up my Itunes (I dont think)...How do I move my Itunes music library over? Will my account work on the new computer for downloads etc...?
- I'd like to save my "Favorites" websites from IE....Is there an easy way to import them to Safari or should I just E-Mail myself the links and save from there?
I've been thinking about this move to MAC since before the new laptops were released...I waited for those and then thought maybe an IMAC and a MB....So I waited for the new IMAC's...(And waited......) Now I think one machine will be better and this ought to be plenty powerful enough to last me awhile...All I really do is CS4, MS Office, internet, music.....I'm excited...But the transition from one up and running computer to the other has me a little nervous....Any tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated...Thanks!
