I've yet to transfer my stuff from my old 2011 MBP to my new 2015 MPB :smh: just hate the whole process. Gotta do it soon

How will you be transferring your stuff?

Why not use Time Machine?

I backup my MBP weekly since the information on it is invaluable to me.

Only gripe I have is the device I use, Seagate backup plus drive, gets stuck at times.
 
No need to even use time machine, you can do a direct transfer using migration assistant. Doesn't take much effort, just time.
 
Got my new MacBook Pro today. Can't wait to use it. Right now I'm transferring my data. It's going to take 3.5 hours but once it's done I'll feel great. So I bought a thunderbolt cable from apple for 22 bucks and it don't even work. I need to return that joint to apple and get my money back. But I ended up getting it to work by taking my ssd out my old MacBook and putting it into an adapter to connect via USB into my new MacBook and works great. It was the same exact method when I upgraded my hd to ssd in my 2011 and had to transfer all my data to the ssd before putting it in my MacBook Pro 2011
 
Important to note if you're doing migration assistant mac to mac via thunderbolt or any other method it works best if both machines are on the latest versions of whatever OSX they have.
 
Question, I'm sure I could google but maybe someone has a easy way to do it.

So I might be getting a new MacBook soon and I still have the bottom half of my old one with the old HDD.

How would I go about extracting some stuff from it? I forgot what I even had on it honestly
 
im using the macbook now... joint feels too fast... my 2011 was great but cant explain it this is on another level... didnt test out videos yet on here but i will soon

Just got the 2015 mbp new. 128gb version (MF839LL/A). No taxes plus 10% off. Only $1160.

This is my first Macbook. I've dealt with iOS devices before but never had my own Macbook. No idea what I'm doing honestly. I don't know what I don't know.

Any particulary good set-up/familiarization guides?

So you have a broken Macbook and want to extract the data from the HDD?

I've taken the HDD out and used this to extract the data. Really easy to use. Hope this helps.

Can someone recommend a good USB-C hub for the Macbook Pro?

I like the HooToo but looking for more options/opinions

I forgot what it's called, but if you go back in this thread to about when or right before the Mackbook Pro dropped, we spoke about one. It's about $100. Just can't remember the name. Sorry.

Apple dropped the prices on the mac pro but the redesign won't be out until late 2017 or early 2018.

Just my Touchbar MBP in today. 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, and 3.1 GHz i5 CPU. In love with this thing so far :smokin

Anyone run Windows on their MBP? Do you guys recommend doing it in a VM or with Bootcamp?

What are you looking for in the hub?

I was looking for something similar to this:

Mainly looking for the SD Card reader, regular USB-A and HDMI output. I ended up buying the Apple USB-C digital AV multiport for $20. It doesnt have the SD Card reader but can't beat that price.
