I've learned a lot of tricks and fixes for the Mac. If you ever have any problems, send me a DU email and I'll be happy to help if I can.

At the risk of being overbearing, the storage drive in your old PC is probably secure and the files can be retrieved and copied to a new external drive. Then you can transfer everything to your new machine and they will most likely be accessible from the Mac software.

Best of luck!
