[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1703074, member: 131855"] According to[URL="http://archive.oreilly.com/pub/a/mac/2005/05/17/tiger.html"] this article[/URL] Tiger shipped with an early version of the Migration Assistant. IIRC it was a bit twitchy for some users. It could also be a bit slow on some of the Power PC machines so give it plenty of time. If it hangs near the end of the process reboot and check to see if everything you need transferred. Sometimes it sees to wait till it was about to quit before hanging. Sometimes I've had to run it a second time to get everything transferred. [/QUOTE]
