I tried Target Disk Mode but I need to make the Intel target as it reboots and shuts down randomly for reasons unknown (it's a 2012). It seems I don't have the correct cabling or maybe it can't work this way when one of the machines is Silicon. In any case I'm hoping someone will have a creative solution as I have many gigs to move and miles to go before I sleep...
MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 15.1
The internal drive can be easily removed from the 2012 MBP. With that done it's a simple matter to install the drive into an external case or use a drive adapter cable and connect it to the new MBP for access and copying.
Check macsales.com for external cases. Amazon is easy to buy from as well.
Angel Johnson this is perfect…allows me to work without rushing. I can’t tell you how much it helps. Than you SO MUCH!
How can I move files from a failing Intel MacBook Pro to a Silicon MBP with these restrictions?
