To set up your MacBook Pro:

1In Setup Assistant, follow the onscreen instructions until you get to the “Transfer Information to This Mac” screen.

2Do a basic setup, a setup with migration, or transfer information from a Time Machine backup or other disk:

ÂÂ To do a basic setup, select “Don’t transfer now” and click Continue. Follow the remaining prompts to select your wired or wireless network, set up an account, and exit Setup Assistant.

ÂÂ To do a setup with migration, select “From another Mac or PC” and click Continue. Follow the onscreen instructions to select the Mac or PC you want to migrate from. Your Mac or PC must be on the same wired or wireless network. Follow the onscreen instructions for migrating.

ÂÂ To transfer information from a Time Machine backup or another disk, select “From a Time Machine backup or other disk” and click Continue. Select the backup or the other disk that you want to migrate from. Follow the onscreen instructions.

If you don’t intend to keep or use your other computer, it’s best to deauthorize it from playing music, videos, or audiobooks that you’ve purchased from the iTunes Store. Deauthorizing a computer prevents any songs, videos, or audiobooks you’ve purchased from being played by someone else, and frees up another authorization for use. For information about deauthorizing, choose iTunes Help from the Help menu in iTunes.
