[QUOTE="PatMac, post: 995072, member: 143120"] After persisting with a very slow and decrepit XP laptop, I took the plunge and went for Mac. I've only just started using my new iMac but I want to make some headway on transferring all my data across. Is there an easy way to transfer files? I have an external HD which already holds most of my music and I was thinking to just plug into the iMac and send the files across but can it be that simple? I don't want to install Windows via bootcamp because once everything is switched over that'll be it; and remember I only have XP which has been used and abused over a number of years! Can someone please help me before I make a costly error! I've had a look at other threads but I can't find a satisfactory answer. [/QUOTE]
