I got a new MBP, but before I received it I gave my old MBP to Mom.

I did back up my old MBP using Time Machine before I wiped all the data off the computer.

However, when I got my new MBP I did not want to restore all the data from my old computer. Over the years a bunch of crap media and applications got all mixed up in it, so I just wanted to transfer the bare essentials.

I have successfully moved all my music, photos, and essential programs to the new MBP from the external hard drive, but there are a couple things I cannot find.

1. iWeb data
-I cannot find where iWeb stores its data
UPDATE - finally found the iWeb data
*The Domain file is located at username/Library/Application Support/iWeb.

2. My address book contacts
-These exist somewhere on my backup
-These exist on my iphone
(I do have MobileMe, but didn't realize I could save and transfer them to and from there until later when I was on the phone with my mom talking her through getting her data onto my old MBP)

UPDATE 2 - The address book data was in almost same place as the iWeb data!
- username/Library/Application Support/Address Book

I don't know why it wasn't coming up in spotlight searches.
