I have just successfully transferred my iTunes, iPhoto, documents folders etc from my trusty eMac G4 to my mid 09 13" MBP Intel. Before I go any further I would appreciate some advice on the next step as this is the first time I have done this.
The transferred folders are now on the hard drive of my MBP in a folder with the name that I used as the Admin on my old Mac.
I am unable to access anything in this folder as I get a message saying "The folder can not be opened because you don't have permission to see it's contents". I presume that I have to go into System Preferences>Accounts and log into the account that has just been transferred.
Basically my question is how do I integrate the new folders with the existing ones and use just one account name. I have never used iTunes, iPhoto or Mail on my MBP. Do I have to get them setup first or will that happen when I find out how to migrate the old files into the system.
Any advice would be truly appreciated.
Michael.
