Moving to a new mac, PPC =>Intel
#8
Your plan is insane and sure to fail. Use migration assistant and choose to move everything.

[quote Black Landlord]Thanks for any answers.
I am moving from a PPC to an intel mac.
I nixed out the "helpers" because I wasn't ready; I've heard I can relaunch them but don't know how or whether I want to.

Here's what I was thinking . . .

Copy my Applications, Users, and Library folders to the new mac, and swap 'em out for the fresh ones there.

Put my tunes and images and documents and such where they should go . . .

Any reason the above won't work? Will I get hung up by the moved stuff not being written for Intel?
Both systems will be Leopard.

Thanks.
