Well this sounds so complicated to me.; I would start all over. I
assume you still have the QS intact, I would start with a brand new
untouched MacBook Pro and just let Migration Assistant do what it
does best.
Hi John,
I really wish I knew what MA does best! <g>
All I want is this: I continue to work with my QS as usual. I will
NEVER EVER abandon it! It is the best machine i have ever had, and
that includes my ex Ford XY.
But my MB should have the latest apps that came installed from Apple
when it was delivered plus all the latest versions of my favourite
apps (like Firefox with add ons and extensions, Cyberduck, iCab ...)
that I have *recently* downloaded fresh from the internet.
And, critically, *in addition*, in respect to things like Mail,
having all my messages from way back, all my old mailboxes, when I
send new messages they go to their destination "from" whatever email
I choose, servers are contacted without bafflement, passwords known.
And in respect to MT-Newswatcher, having all the same groups and
settings and ready to go. About Cyberduck, all the bookmarks and all
the settings and all the passwords known. If keychain is crucial for
passwords, that keychain is updated from the QS.
