Special Usage
If the user is migrating data because of systemwide issues, it is best to copy only user accounts and reinstall applications with the original installation process, first noting the settings and then re-entering them manually. At least one account being migrated should be an administration-level account, or one should be created after user accounts have been migrated. A user account protected by FileVault can be migrated only during the initial Setup Assistant process of a new Mac, or the first time Mac OS X is started after a fresh install of the operating system. It cannot be done later by going to Migration Assistant application in the /Applications/Utilities folder. The full disk encryption FileVault 2 introduced in OS X Lion does not have this limitation, after a password for the whole disk is entered there is no difference to a normal disk for any application. User files located on FileVault 2 system disks can be migrated at any time.

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or usage:
“The universal social pressure upon women to be all alike, and do all the same things, and to be content with identical restrictions, has resulted not only in terrible suffering in the lives of exceptional women, but also in the loss of unmeasured feminine values in special gifts. The Drama of the Woman of Genius has too often been a tragedy of misshapen and perverted power.”
—Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)
“Girls who put out are tramps. Girls who don’t are ladies. This is, however, a rather archaic usage of the word. Should one of you boys happen upon a girl who doesn’t put out, do not jump to the conclusion that you have found a lady. What you have probably found is a lesbian.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1951)
