I don't think I ever saw an answer to this one. Were the files you
copied applications by chance? Apps under the hood are really whole
directory tree bundles which may have dozens or hundreds of files. So 48
apps could have turned into thousands of files to copy. Just a thought.

Hi,
I'm moving off of my old MacBook 13 and onto my new MacBook Pro 13. I shared the Documents folder
on the new computer, went over to the old one, went into its Documents folder, did a select all and
copy and it said 48 items copied. I went to the shared folder in Finder from the new computer
while on the older one. I did a "paste" and it said something about pasting 48 items
which sounded good to me. I was asked if I wanted to replace items and I said yes to replace all.
Then, still on the older machine, I get a dialogue that says "Copying" and it says it is
copying more than 3000 files to the Documents folder on the new computer.
What did I do wrong? Where did the 48 files that I copied go? I think this is
the first task I've needed where Windows seems easier, not easier enough to go
back, just a bit easier in one way.
