New Mac set up: transfer info

I don’t want to transfer anything to my new Mac but it’s stuck on “transfer information to this new Mac” screen. How do I move beyond it? Thanks.

Hi Ditimus,

Can you not select the skip button in the bottom left corner of the window? If not, shut down your Mac, and try again.

Old Mac / New Mac I'm trying to move my data from my very old (2015) Mac to my new Mac, but no transfer app seems common between the two. Can someone help me figure out how to transfer my data? lkrand

New Mac Mini - how to transfer data I have a new Mac Mini and I want to transfer the data from my old one. Is there a way to so it so programs transfer too? I did ask this question previously and came back to review the answer, but despite being a member here since the late 1990s but since about 4 years ago every time I log in all my data is gone and it treats me as a new member. So please be kind and don't think I am rude if you are the person who kindly steered me to the Apple how to do it before.
