You need to be very specific with Geek Squad and the Apple set up. If you just as to have your files transferred over to the new computer they will make a "transfer" file with all of your documents. It will not carry over anything else. You are better off doing a "time machine" backup just prior to the transfer and ask the Geek Squad to to a Time Machine backup transfer for that specific date and time. This will then clone your new computer with everything, including applications and customization. They will resist and tell you to just download the applications again, however, you will then need to add you modifications and all of your passwords. It is not an easy task. ALSO, tell them what you want to NAME your computer and the password. If you do not they will call your computer Owner and it is VERY HARD to change without messing up the root for all of your files. Not aware of any recycle program, but most of the time you are better donating the old equipment. Good Luck and hope this helps.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I really cannot answer. I would assume that the Geek Squad would be able to easily handle that for you. I kept my old Mac. And I setup the new one on my own.
