Re: Using Migration Assistant ? Sierra to Ventura


 

There are a couple of convertors buried in some of the ¡°name change¡± upgrades. Mail is one of the apps that gets affected. It is best to upgrade one major upgrade at a time. Or do a clean install, and chance losing your rules.

?Hi

St Clare software. Go64 is a free app that will determine the 32 bits programs.

One option is to make a clone, remove them and then do the migration.

But yes Migration Assistant will separate the apps and let you know about unsupported.

The rules in Mail is tricky. I have seen both results- the rules came through on two machines when I upgraded to Big Sur. I don¡¯t think they did when we upgraded to Monterey.

?When using Migration Assistant to transfer information from a drive running Sierra to one running Ventura is it possible to exclude 32 bit applications and all files relating to those apps from the transfer in that they will not run on the newer operating system. Also, what is the best method to identify and list all 32 bit apps running on a computer without having to check each one individually?

This is quite a jump in operating systems. Under Sierra I have a lot of archived email set up in AppleMail which I have filtered into many mailboxes. Can I expect all the content in AppleMail to transfer over to Ventura faithfully with the Rules I set up intact?

This is the first time I am using Migration Assistant and I¡¯m a bit nervous about doing it incorrectly. Many thanks for any and all advice.
