Just tried Mac Migration assistant to migrate my account using firewire but no luck. I stuck at “looking for other computers” forever. I’ve tried to restart migration assistant for few times but it still the same. Finally, i found a way to solve this problem.

To solve Mac Migration Assistant keep “looking for other computers”, follow the steps below:-
- Go to “System Preferences” -> “Security”
- Click on Firewall tab and select “Allow all incoming connections”
- Now restart your Mac Migration Assistant, and you should not be stucked at “looking for other computers” again!
Good luck to your migration!
