If your computers are not on a network but both of the computers do have USB ports, the best method for performing a migration is to use a USB file transfer cable.

A USB file transfer is very simple. When you install Move Me on each computer, the necessary USB driver is installed automatically.  Then just connect the appropriate cable to the USB port on each computer, run Move Me on both computers, and select USB Transfer as your migration method.

Currently, the USB file transfer method can only be used with our Laplink® USB 1.1 File Transfer Cable OR Laplink USB 2.0 File Transfer Cable (made by Laplink Software, Inc.)  You can purchase either of these cables from our online store.  Other USB cables will not work with Move Me. 

IMPORTANT NOTE:
In order to benefit from the increased speed of USB 2.0, both computers must be equipped with a USB 2.0 port.  If one or both of your computers is equipped with a slower USB 1.1 port, you can perform your migration with a 1.1 or 2.0 cable, but your data will be transferred at the slower 1.1 speed.  Unless you have a USB 2.0 port on each computer, you can save money by purchasing a USB 1.1 cable.
