I'm moving to a new Mac Book Pro (yea, me!) but I can't seem to get my previous Hazel setup moved over to the new machine. I've copied everything I can find...
~/Library/Preferences/com.noodlesoft.Hazel.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.noodlesoft.HazelHelper.plist
~/Library/Application Support/Hazel/

...to the new machine, but it doesn't show my configured folders (which exist on the new machine). I can try and recreate the folders and import the rulesdb files, but they're not obvious which is which (have to open with textedit and scrounge through the files).

Help...

If you are on Mavericks or later, you have to use a special procedure as Apple has complicated things:

- Quit System Preferences.
- Launch Activity Monitor and find HazelHelper. Quit the process.
- Find cfprefsd. Kill any that you can (some may be for other accounts and you can't kill them).
- Restore the following:
- In your Library/Application Support folder, the Hazel folder
- In your Library/Preferences folder, the files starting with com.noodlesoft.
- Reboot.
