what to do if migration assistant lost thunderbolt connection

  • #1

So, question for those who take but migrated To their new m1. Has apple Fixed the migration assistant problem? For the by few machines, target deejay mode runs dog tiresome (like usb 2 or 3 speeds), and a live transfer always uses the network. Thunderbolt would be vastly faster than either, but I've never gotten it to piece of work, and have always resorted to a ccc clone to an ssd every bit the fastest method.

anyone get a real tb migration this go around?

Apple really needs to up their game here.

Switching from an M1 mini to my new M1 Macbook Pro took far too long.

I tried connecting directly cable to cablevision but had no luck making it go faster.

Because the interfaces bachelor on these machines, it's simply not proficient plenty. I just want to migrate and get to using my new computer!

I did Migration Assistant from my i9 to M1Max. For some reason information technology stayed on the WiFi connection for a while before switching over to Thunderbolt (and went much faster).

Worked for me when migrating from an M1 MBA to M1 Pro MBP 14. Just connected a brusque TB cablevision and the Migration Assistant window displayed connection via Thunderbolt. Was done with a 350GB transfer in... <45 mins, give or take.

March 29, 2022: It still does not work with a Thunderbolt connexion .I tried to gear up my new Mac Studio by using Migration Banana to clone my 2017 iMac. i had a Thunderbolt iv cable successfully connected between the two macs merely there was no style to switch connections within Migration Assistant. In fact I had to do several tricks just to get the connectedness to switch from WiFi to Ethernet. Withal, get this, the Migration app literally has a line of text correct below the "Current Connectedness" that said "Connecting a Thunderbolt cable may transfer data faster".

Then I chosen Apple tree Support. The tech did not know how to use Thunderbolt either and so he sent an inquiry to the upper level support. They came dorsum and said it won't work, but they could not respond why, or why the Migration Assistant told me it would work. In fact, they could not explain how to even select Ethernet over WiFi connections. All the directions they gave me failed to work. The just way I got Ethernet to work was to totally re-install MacOS 12.3 Monterey on the Mac Studio and use the Migration Assistant equally if I were initially setting upwardly the computer for the first time. Took nearly an hour to move over one.3 TB to the Mac Studio over gigabit ethernet.

Non a expert way to starting time off with a new $3K+ Mac......

Cheers. I ended upward doing a carbon copy cloned clone to an ssd, then migrated from that, simply like the final few machines. I don't accept ethernet dongles, and Wi-Fi is simply horribly tedious. Actually odd that apple tree has abandoned best in class migration.

If anyone else is still having this problem, I figured out the issue for me with an iMac Pro to a Mac studio. I had to brand a thunderbolt service on the original iMac pro nether network system preferences, then while the Mac studio was on, I connected them and made certain they could run across each other by going into the settings under the Thunderbolt bridge. Information technology should show as active when you lot look at your thunderbolt ports.

After starting migration assistant on both, Thunderbolt worked. 🤷🏻‍♂️
