HT3224 I am new to Mac and started transferring data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro.  Connection was lost once I started and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring Information' screen.  How do I get out of this screen to attempt the connection again?

II am new to Mac and was trying to transfer data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro.  The connection was lost however and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring you nformation' screen.  How do I get out of this screen so I can attempt the connection again?  Is it safe to force shut down of my Mac and will it still prompt me through all the setup process again?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If your Mac and PC are connected by Ethernet, unplug and plug that cable again. If not, you have to turn off the MacBook by holding the Power button.
In the next startup, try to transfer your files again. It's important not to interrupt the transfer process, because in most cases, you will stop it and you won't be able to resume it

  • Hey, I accidently upgraded my iphone 4 os to ios5, and stuck in "could not activate". How do i get out of this ? Thanks

    hey, I accidently upgraded my iphone 4  to ios5, and stuck in "could not activate". How do i get out of this ? Thanks
    Got a i7 processor with win 7 64bit.
    How do i get back ?

    How do you "accidentaly" upgrade to iOS 5?  Are you a registered developer?  As I understand, Apple has told developers that they do NOT support downgrading from the Beta. You'll have to go over to the developers forums and see if someone there can help you.
    If you're not a registered developer, then congratulations. You are now the proud owner of an iBrick until you either pay to enter the developers program or until the final release comes out in the fall.

  • Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode

    Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode
    Hello, I am having problems migrating data from my old PC running XP (SP3) to my new Mac Pro 2012 using the Migration Assistant.
    - I downloaded and installed the Windows Migration Assistant from Apple
    - My Mac recognized PC and displays passcode
    - The sasscode does not show / display on my PC
    - My Mac is then stuck in "authenticating" loop and the PC is stuck "waiting for Mac to connect."
    - Both computers are connected on same network (have connected PC on WIFI and using ethernet to Reuter)
    I have looked on support site and only response I saw says to reinstall Windows Migration Assistant (which I have done)
    Any ideas?  If cant get this to workare there instructions for manually bring across relevant data eg itunes music and apps, photos, picasa data etc?

    Why not turn off the Windows firewall and uninstall any other firewall software you have installed?
    If you are using a Norton product uninstall it and discard it. To fully unistall most Norton products you have to go to the Norton website and download a soecial program to completely get rid of it. The normal uninstall feature built into the program will not remove all of it.

    How do you get out of Full Screen mode in Excel? No red or yellow buttons visible. Using just installed Yosemite iOS 10.10.2

    I Don't think Microsoft updated it for those buttons. Look for a blue button with arrows in it on the right side of the menu bar.
    Also try Esc key.

  • How do I get out of this box????

    I froze after the original installation of lightroom 3 and couldn't decide whether to create a new lr file or upgrade my elements 9 file.  At the freezing point I am stuck in a little box which asks me to (myself!) create the file or choose another file.
    I don't know where to  create the file, or how to name it, or where to put it.  Would prefer to upgrade my photoshop elements file, but no longer seem to have that choice.  I can't get back to that choice.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled my new lightroom, but it just comes up to that box.
    Help help help please.

    Hi there...yikes, I don't use this email address very often and didn't see all the messages until just now.  I went on chat with an adobe person this morning, and he walked me through the manual removal procedure, including how to find hidden files.  Once I had deleted lightroom in that place, everything was fine and I could relaumch it completely...thanks for your interest.
