On your other mac your slow mac should come up as an external hard drive, go into it, find the users folder and in that it should say *name*'s iMac or something like that. drag that folder on you other mac, or you can have another extern hard drive connected and drag it to that. Once it copies, eject your slow imac and, well... do whatever you have to do.</p></blockquote><p></p>
