So i am trying to transfer my old mac powerbook settings to my new macbook pro.

connected the firewire cables, and it starts transfer. but then it looks like it gets stuck at 5 hrs and 57 mins. time doesnt change at all. and no noise on hard drives.

anyone run into any problems before. any ideas to fix this? can i put all data on extrernal hard drive, lacie, then update mbp with that?


(Solved now. i used a different type of cable. and it worked overnight. so happy to get rid of my malfunctioning old powerbook)
