Hi Katie, This is actually pretty straight forward. I can’t remember exactly when, but at some point in the setup process, you will be prompted to transfer files. If memory serves—it’s been a couple of years since I last did this—you will have two options: transfer wirelessly from your Mac, and restore from backup disk. If you have a backup disk, I would choose the latter. Then just follow the prompts.
Sorry I can’t be more specific, but I don’t think you’ll have any trouble.
