[QUOTE="agwilliams, post: 1706872, member: 331046"] Thanks for the response. I have followed your advice over the bookmarks and transferred them successfully. Quite simple, once you're pointed in the right direction! I should say that I wanted to migrate the contents of my iMac to the MacBook because, after three faultless years, the iMac has started playing up over the past week. It keeps locking up for no obvious reason, and I am often having to force a switch-off manually. So I thought I'd better save everything to the MacBook in case the iMac dies. However, since the failed migration the MacBook has also started playing up....:Angry: Is there some kind of diagnostic/repair utility I could try, or might installing El Capitan help? (so far avoided due to reported problems). I should add that my IT skills are limited to only the routine uses I make of it. [/QUOTE]
