When you want to add a picture to a document on your Mac, you can add it in either of two ways: as a floating object (which you place in a particular spot from which it doesn’t move, even if you make changes to the text) or as an inline object (which flows with the surrounding text as you make layout changes).
- Add a floating object. Drag an image file from a Finder window and place it at the spot you want within your document. Alternatively, you can click the Media button on the toolbar and then choose Photos, which takes you to the Media Browser, which displays images from Photos, as well as other locations on your Mac. Navigate to where the file is saved, and drag the image thumbnail to the spot you want to place the image in the document.
You can send a floating object (such as a shape or an image) to the background, where text doesn’t wrap around it. To bring back a background object as a regular floating object, click the object to select it and choose Arrange →Bring to Front.
- Add an inline object. Hold down the Command (⌘) key while you drag an image file from a Finder window and place the image where you want within your document. You can also click the Media button and choose Photos to display the Media Browser. Navigate to the location where the file is saved, hold down the ⌘ key, and drag the image thumbnail to the spot where you want to place it in the document.
To move an image, click it to select it and then drag it to the new location within your document.
Migration Assistant copies all of your files from your old Mac to your new Mac so that you don't have to copy them manually.
- If your files are currently on a PC, follow the PC migration steps instead.
- If you're moving content from a Time Machine backup, follow the steps to restore your Mac from a backup instead.
Get ready
- Install all available software updates on both computers. If your old Mac isn't using OS X Lion or later, and your new Mac isn't using OS X Mavericks or later, follow the Mountain Lion migration steps instead.
- If both computers are using macOS Sierra or later, place them near each other with Wi-Fi turned on. If either one is using OS X El Capitan or earlier, make sure that both are on the same network.
- On your old Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Sharing. Make sure that a name appears in the Computer Name field.

In this example, John Appleseed is a macOS user account. If it has the same name as an account already on your new Mac, you're prompted to either rename the old account or replace the one on your new Mac. If you rename, the old account will appear as a separate user on your new Mac, with a separate home folder and login. If you replace, the old account will delete and then replace the account on your new Mac, including everything in its home folder. - Click Continue to start the transfer. Large transfers might need several hours to complete.
