[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1639807"] Windows apps don't run on Mac unless you install a virtual environment or install Windows natively on a separate partition using Boot Camp (Win 7 only I believe, though it might be supporting Win 8 by now). You can certainly move your documents, music, photos and videos over without issue, and your contacts and email might come over smoothly with a little help. There is a built-in program on the Mac called TextEdit that can read Word files, but it's pretty basic. Are you saying you bought and installed Office 2011 for Mac on that machine? If so, the files should open up pretty straightforwardly. [/QUOTE]
