While waiting for suggestions about airport express I tried to use the firewire to transfer stuff from my old imac to brand new powerbook.

Firstly Migration utility didn't like that the user was named the same, so asked me to rename incoming user files.
Then it moved all the stuff to a subfolder of my home directory.
1)Do I just drag it to the appropriate usual place?
2) many of the folders are marked red and have 0kb eg Pictures; itunes Do I just drag these over individually or is there some reason they weren't copied over?


When I have time I'll try the airport suggestions.
