[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1900389, member: 396914"] Yes, that is what I eventually did. I used EACAS to get back to factory status, then at the first offer, took MA to migrate from my last TM backup and everything migrated just fine. Sorry, but I don't understand that question. You have to agree to the migration during the setup, and point to the source for the migration, so it isn't "no input." The suggestion from Eclectic Light was to create an account, then apply any updates/upgrades that have been issued from Apple after the machine was manufactured but before you bought it, then do MA. I think I would revise that to 1) create an account, 2) update/upgrade, 3) run EACAS to get back to factory (but with the upgrades now in place) 4) use MA to recreate my account. That seems to be the best of both approaches and avoids the hassles I ran into. [/QUOTE]
