Hello all,
I just got a new base model 15" MBP. I'm upgrading from my mid-09 13" MBP.
So last night when I got the new one, I opened it up replaced the HD, reinstall the OS and migrated everything else over from my time machine back-up.
Everything came over great, BUT when I tried to open my VM (VMWare Fusion) I got a message that said it could not open and that my virtual machine appears to be in use.
I then tried to clone my old HD in my old computer and move it that way. Again, everything seemed fine until I tried opening my VM. I got the same message.
This is my first time migrating an existing VM.
Thoughts? What am I doing wrong?
