HI
I'd like to transfer all my files and stuff over to my mac from my pc, But got confused after looking at the apple switch 101 migrate page.

I have two ethernet cables if that helps and a router. Just didn't want to pay for a program that does the same thing as the ethernet cables according the apple site.

Thanks and Merry Christmas.

I think the instructions are quite straightforward

What exactly are you having trouble with?
