Guys

My boss has smashed his screen (not sure how) so I have ordered another laptop from Apple that may be here tomorrow if not Monday.

I just need to know the simplest and most effective way to migrating everything including software and settings to his new unit when it arrives?

I've had a read on the web but I thought you guys would no the pit falls and have the best advice?

Many thanks in advance!
 
Hi Slogan

I was thinking of swapping the hard drives but I'm not sure I can actually get to the hard drive on these, haven't got it with me at the minute.

He does have a IOMEGA ULTRAMAX 1TB-ZML from his first order so time machine may be my best option
 
As the screen is shafted I was hoping to have the option of pull the account over from the faulty unit to the brand new one?
 
That sound perfect however my boss would like me to send the faulty unit away (not sure where yet) and have it repaired!

Thanks for the advice so far though..
 
Turns out the screen is viewable on the left handside so I may be able to see what I'm doing after all...

New unit should be here tomorrow or Monday
