Hello,

I'm looking to migrate all user fonts from my old Mac to my new one, without using the migration assistant or Time Machine.

Does anyone have a quick solution please?

Thank you very much.

Configuration: Mac OS X (10.11) / Firefox 44.0

    Hello,

    The fonts available for each user are the fonts found in the Fonts folders on the Mac located at these places:

    hard drive / Library / Fonts

    hard drive / users / username / Library / Fonts

    When you install a new font, you can install it so that it is available for all users or just for yourself. Hence the presence of these different folders. Therefore, you need to copy the desired folders or fonts to make them accessible between users (for example, Users / Shared folder), and use the Font Book application, and the Add Fonts... menu, then specify the fonts to add in the chosen folder.

    to access the user library:

      Great Francis, by displaying the user library that was hidden since I am on OS X 10.11.1, I was able to do an AirDrop in 2 seconds.

      Thanks for your help ;)
