I now have a second Apple laptop. All my data was transferred and is fine. Wanted to use my old one as back-up and maybe play some games but now have no facility for internet and emails. When I queried it with my friend was told Apple does not let you use same data on two laptops.
In the past did read on here that some of you have second laptop as back-up. Do not want to pay out if this is not possible or offend my friend if he did not know if this was possible.
