[QUOTE="rjonst, post: 1939548, member: 420013"] Hello and thanks for the quick reply. I recall turning the M1 on and just following the guide. The Migration bit came in as one of the questions after the basics, asking if it (MA) were to be used and am fairly positive that it was after setting an admin and user password. That aside, the mouse had been on the charger for almost an hour and the migration took 3+ hours. you are likely right about the account name issue, as this was an old Mac being decommissioned and I'm used to the old 8 character logins. There was nothing transferred to the M1 that cannot be tossed, so if possible it would be best to wipe the system and start over. The issue with the mouse is still on the table. It was charging overnight and was tried again this AM. In neither mode, user login or admin mode, will the mouse be usable. The new cabled mouse will not be here until Thursday, so for the factory reset is the first option. thks [/QUOTE]
