Hello, I'm in an emergency. Basically I'm leaving tomorrow for a few days away and I'll have work to do in the train and in the other city.
I own an intel iMac from august 2020 and I backup often on an external SSD (Samsung 1T T5).
Today, I tried to put my iMac save onto my recent Macbook Pro 2021 unfortunately… the Finder doesn't find the hardware, I can't explore the files etc and it's not usable in the Migration Assistant to try to restore from that iMac backup.
Now I'm stucked, I have tried following the advice a friend of mine gave me which is erasing the SSD, formatting to exFat (which is weirdly still showing AFPS case sensitive when I try to read informations about the SSD).
After hours making a new backup of about 500Gb of files from my iMac onto the freshly formatted SSD, it still doesn't show up on the MBP.
Now I'm really stressed and panicking because I really need my files, my set ups for softwares and the different sessions etc from various programs and applications.
I'm sorry for the bad english. I hope someone can help me, thanks a lot.
