Hello there.
I just moving from win to mac. I have all my projects on one HD that was used on win comp. How do I transfer it to mac HD? Any video links or so?
Hi,
To transfer a project from one (any) computer to other one, use the File > Backup Project function.
This will put all (and only) project related files to a new folder. Then you know you take all files with you and you don’t take unnecessary files.
MacOS can mount a Windows HD read-only, You’ll need to put the drive into an external enclosure, or some other way to connect it. For example, https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7414173#:~:text=How%20is%20the%20disk%20drive,able%20to%20write%20to%20it.
Don’t buy a utility for Mac to use NTFS disks, it’s completely unnecessary. I mention that because the first ten gazillion results in an Internet search are ads for such products.
@Martin.Jirsak - backup each individual project? Seems quite onerous.

Great tip Steve. Thx
Martin,
this is obvious, but not practical when you move over 2000 projects from one HD to another. Thx anyway!
