Transfer individual apps on new MBP from Time Machine?


i bought new (still in box) mid-2014 macbook pro retina. have current computer backed through time machine. pick , choose apps , folders bring on old computer.

example, want bring on google chrome, apple email , adobe lightroom (with now) not older adobe apps , other random apps downloaded 1 reason or another.

what's best way this?

current mbp running 10.10.3 yosemite , new 1 (presumably) running 10.9 mavericks. haven't turned on new mbp yet.

i'm decent getting technical side of things let's assume know nothing when respond.

thanks!
 

when start new mac take through set menu. you'll login wifi , icloud , ask if use want transfer data machine (after inviting update el capitan likely). should able connect time machine drive , either select whole backup restore or select folders. unfortunately may let specific "applications" , "documents". either can delete unwanted apps , files once they've been moved on or may have temporarily move them hard drive , create backup without them. don't recommend setting mac new , dragging , dropping files time machine. apps can't moved way since tend store needed files , information in multiple places. know personal experience doesn't work ms office.

Poll: iWork ’09 vs iWork 2013-15

do prefer iwork ’09, @ least in terms of functionality or prefer new of iwork 2013-15? prefer iwork ’09 in terms of functionality, i’d see think. if you’d read more opinion on old , new versions of iwork, can take @ article: http://jbmachelp.x10host.com/mac/mac-index/software/declining-apple-software-by.html   jblagden said: ↑ do prefer iwork ’09, @ least in terms of functionality or prefer new of iwork 2013-15? click expand... there's no doubt apple has "dumbed down" iwork 09 apps latest versions, pages popular of three. perhaps that's why give away suite new mac or ios device. need use office because of compatibility issues did use pages other things, however, don't use @ all.   Forums Macs ...
