I don't see why not. Once purchased you should be able to download the app from Amazon's servers to your new mac and use the same activation code that you originally obtained from Amazon.

I do not know much about macs but if the mac has usb, this should pop up as an external usb hard drive (provided there is a hard drive in the device). If you have both Hard drives plugged in the device then you should be able to use your mac to drag and drop files from one hard drive to the other.

If you have MacOS 10.4 or later on your laptops, yes you can. Windows 8 has the software to choose the files you wish to backup, not sure about apple.

The cord will work but before purchasing it, Apple has a built in application that allows you to transfer files from one mac to another. The application is called Migration Assistant and can be found by clicking on the Finder Icon, then Applications, then Utilities - Migration Assistant is under Utilities. It is easy to use and good directions. I have a wireless home network and can move files from one mac to another without the use of any type of cord hook up.Hope this helps.

I'm pretty sure it will work. Before I retired I was a graphic designer for the local daily newspaper. I transferred graphic files from salesmen's PCs to my Mac using a jumpdrive regularly. I also transferred files from my Mac to the salesmen the same way. You will be able to transfer pretty much any graphic file and word files will depend on both machines carrying compatible software.

I'm surprised you haven't gotten an answer to this question yet. The answer is, fortunately, quite simple. When you get your new Mac, during the setup process, it will ask you if you want to migrate your data from an older Mac. This is the best time to do it, right from the start when you boot for the first time. You can boot your old Mac into "target disk mode" by holding down the "t" key during bootup. This allows you to use the Mac as an (expensive) external FireWire hard drive. Once it's booted this way, use a FireWire cable to connect it to your new Mac, and tell the new Mac to transfer all the data for you. Works beautifully! The only hitch is that some apps (MS Office for one) will recognize that this is a different Mac, and will ask for your activation code. So you'd better have that filed away somewhere! If you've already set up your new Mac, and you want to do this transfer later, you can do it by running Migration Assistant, located in /Applications/Utilities. The downside to this approach is that it is tricky to merge a user account from the old Mac with one on the new Mac, in case you need to do that. That's why it's easier to do this migration prior to setting up anything (including user accounts) on the new Mac.

Files are files, you can transfer any files to the Mac Passport. Just grab and drop into the Passport. Basically it just knows backing up the Mac as a specialty. I have copied files from my PC to my Passport then copied to the Mac. It should be no problem.

Backup to Itunes and the transfer is a snap. I went from a IPad Retina to a mini retina and love it. Much easier to travel with.

I don't have experience with MAC. However, I am having issues currently with the system. A cloud change was made and all my records are missing. Not very excited about it at this time.

I transferred 750GB HD from a MacBook Pro to a 1TB Hybrid drive. It claimed it was going to take 2 days 9 hours using the Macs own OS but it actually took around 14 hours or so to transfer all the data and OS.

I haven't done so, but if U could transfer files between 2 macs that have FireWire 800, then it should work. If you're not sure, I'd check some of the Mac forums.

yes, use Time Machine. it's the native backup app for Macs. and for the love of stuff... DON'T UPGRADE PAST SNOW LEOPARD. not because of this hard drive backup solution... don't do it because Lion, Mountain Lion and Mavericks are all crap.

Please do what Omwave & NeilMike suggested and connect the two iMacs with an ethernet cable. Ignore my advice from yesterday about using a TB cable. There is a good step-by-step guide on the apple website on using Migration Assistant to transfer data between two macs - http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5872

yes, unless one is a mac..then no. you will have to re format the hard drive after using it for a mac.

I used it with my MacBook. It should be fine if you are going from one Mac to another.

Hi there! No, the MAC must be in the original system of your car, if it's not you're gonna have to buy a new one
