Hi,

As far as I know, you can migrate data with Migrate Assistant from Mojave MacBook Pro to Catalina MacBook Pro.


  1. Open Migration Assistant, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.
  2. Click Continue.
  3. When asked how you want to transfer your information, select the option to transfer from a Mac, Time Machine backup, or startup disk.
  4. Click Continue.
