Hi,
I just received a new 13" macbook pro and I want to put my hard drive from my old macbook pro into the new macbook pro. I successfully installed it, but when I boot the hard drive, it stays on the apple logo for a prolong period of time. Ive waited maybe 10 minutes the longest but it should boot right up. There is no spinning wheel under the logo. The hard drive is filled with my files including Snow Leopard. The reason I dont want to use migration assistant is because I would be downgrading the hard drive size. Old hard drive=750gb New harddrive=500gb. What can I do to get this old 750gb hard drive to boot or what am I doing wrong? any suggestions?
