MS All Models Using 1 monitor, possible to transfer apps from current MS to new one?

[silverlakerCA]

I have one monitor and hope to transfer my apps from my current MS M1 to my new MS M4.
Any suggestions on how to make this work?

Thank you!

Use time machine to backup your current computer and then restore it to you new mac

Like maflynn says above...

Get an external drive.
Back up the old Studio to the drive.
(You should always have a backup, anyway!)

When the new Mac comes, take it out of the box and set it up on the table.
Connect the backup drive.
Press the power-on button for the first time.
Begin setup. Setup assistant will ask if you wish to migrate from another Mac or drive. YES, you do, so...
... point the way to the backup and give SA a moment to "digest" things.
SA will present you with a list of stuff that can be migrated. I suggest you just accept the defaults (which is "everything").

Let setup assistant do its job.
When done, you should see your new login screen, which will look pretty much like the older one.
So... log in and "look around"...

Thanks for this.
I have a number of apps I purchased from makers like Topaz and Native Instruments.
And the easier ones are the one through Mac Store.
