Migrating 2 user folders to new iMacs

[gduncan]

My wife and I currently share a Mac Mini and we're looking to get 2 new iMacs. How do I move my user folder to one iMac and hers onto the other?

Do you use two separate accounts or a joint account on the current Mac Mini?

Transfer the user that you want on each, from your old Mac, using Migration Assistant on each new Mac.

You can choose to transfer _everything_, except the user account that you don't want - for example...

Satcomer: Yes, I meant 2 user accounts when I wrote 2 user folders. I thought the two terms were synonymous.

Thanks, DeltaMac. I think you answered my question. It's been quite a while since I last used Migration Assistant to transfer from one Mac to another. I'll have to watch for that option when I next use it.
