Moving data from PC to Mac?

12 years 7 months ago #151797 by Mayo
I would like to move from PC to Mac but wondering about all my data on my PC. Can this be imported and saved on a Mac? I was told it was possible but I would like to know what specifically will need to be done. I guess I just want additional peace of mind from users here. I would hate to buy a new computer only to find out that my files can't be read on a Mac :blink:

Most of the information will move over no problem, you might need software to run certain programs on your Mac. But most files should be able to view.

Ok, have you ever run Microsoft office on a Mac? How does that work out?
