Ah, sorry, didn't mention that. I'm doing it wirelessly because I don't have a firewire cable around (I've moved so many times recently, all of my extra cables are in boxes somewhere). I'm guessing that's why it's asking for the passcode, since it's a wireless transfer.

Amanda, ¬are you migrating everything via firewire cable? I've done this several times and once you put your notebook into target disk mode, you should be able to have the migration assistant just pull the data across. Unless the notebooks are differnt, you should be able to hold the letter t down immediately after hearing the startup chime on the notebook.
How are you performing the transfer?

Hi everyone,
So, here's the deal. I've been using a Macbook running Leopard since December. Most has gone beautifully, hence I recently (read: yesterday) purchased a new iMac. So now I'm trying to move stuff over to the iMac from the Macbook using Migration Assistant. The iMac is telling me that I need to enter a passcode into the Macbook. I see the passcode just fine, but when I go to the migration assistant window on the Macbook, there's no field to enter said passcode. It tells me that it sees my iMac and it says I need to enter the passcode the iMac gave me, but there's no edit field. Am I totally missing something, or is this just something that VO doesn't work with? If this has been covered before, I apologize. I'm at a total loss.
