Default will migration work?
it appears my system drive bit the dust

the day i upgraded to cs5 and right after watching a DVD of steven king's 1408

weird


i have a clone...pretty much

since they won't give me my drive back and suggest it is corrupted

can i use migration and merge my old stuff with the new system the "geniuses" are putting in on G5

then i'll re clone?

It works however the safer way to go is to start fresh. Manually copy user data as necessary. Reinstall applications from scratch.

I agree, i've migrated two systems and had all sorts of strange happenings. I'd do a clean install.

i'd rather clone back from my clone that spend hours re installing

what quirks can happen from migration
