[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1397963"] Nope, there's no glitch. That's perfectly normal behaviour when the user has gone on and created a new account and set it up BEFORE using Migration Assistant. It's a security measure to prevent any possibility of overwriting the user's existing settings, files etc. What bahasport SHOULD have done is used the Migration Assistant AS they were setting up the new account. Ah well, what's done is done. Depending on how long ago this transpired, it might be easier for him/her to just take whatever files they want from their current new account, put them on a thumb drive, log into the "migration" account, add the documents there, then delete the "first" account and make the "migration" account the main one. Your other suggestions are also valid options too. [/QUOTE]
