If you want to use Migration Assistant then just connect the two computers and start up Migration Assistant in your Applications folder. Here is the <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3322" target="_blank">instructions</a>.As to your Target Disk Mode problem I don't know why your old computer is not cooperating but for TDM to work all you need is one computer to cooperate. This means that if your new computer works when you hold down the T key then you can use your old computer to transfer files to your new. TDM is a two way street meaning it doesn't matter which computer is the target computer. Whichever computer is in command you can use it to transfer files to and from the other computer.</blockquote>
