• Sure -- do it thru iTunes like you would with an iPhone. Take a backup of yourMacBook on the backup drive and restore it to your new MacBook Pro -- not difficult at all. The drive comes with the appropriate cable which will plug into both computers. Get the drive MAC version to make it simpler it's worth the difference in price.
