[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1908945, member: 396914"] Mary Lee, it sounds like the migration of your data was not done correctly. You were a bit sparse on telling us what you did, but if you still have the old machine and want to try again (or if you have the backups of the old machine), we can talk you through the process from scratch. If you want that, you will lose everything currently on the drive now, but should be able to get all of the stuff from the old system to the new just fine. As for a mouse, you can get a wireless mouse and use that, or you can get a hub to have more USB-c ports to use for things like the mouse and external drives. So, what MacBook Air (MBA) did you get and what version of macOS is running on it and what was the version of macOS on the old Mac? Where are the files you need to access? [/QUOTE]
