So. Got a new computer (Macbook Pro, extra spiffy screen). Determined that using Migration Assistant via wireless would take about two days. (Yes, really.) So I bought the appropriate firewire cable and did it in two hours, instead.
Got everything on this new, spiffy, beautiful computer. It's all here.
But I can't access it. There are folders, with all my stuff in them. They have those little European "do not enter" symbols on them. And when I try to open them the computer says "you don't have permission to see its contents." Feh. So, okay, there was a password on the old computer. It just so happens that I chose the same one for the new computer, so if it *asked* me for one, I should be fine. But it doesn't ask.
Anyone know what I should do?
