Tell it to keep both and you will end up with two files--filename and filename1. I think there is also a button or checkbox to say, basically, apply to all so you can move a bunch at a time and have the same decision for all of them. I'm not where I can experiment right now, but you can try it by creating a new folder with some name like "Testing" and put a few files in it, then copy the files from the old MBP to the new with the same names and see if you get the option I am describing. If so, you don't need a script, just select what you want to move and go!</p></blockquote><p></p>
