Thank you so much. I was so nervous about this process. I really appreciate your step by step approach. May the force be with you.

I didn't see him download a new ledger live app from the ledger website. How did you download the ledger live app on your new device?

[@georgie6060]

Thank you! - this was perfect, moved from a PC to a MAC, piece of cake.

[@AnilSingh-pn9vz]

Was it easy ? Same process. My older Mac book pro broke, so I’m picking one up next week.

[@martinbarringer6808]

Excellent video. I had previously just reinstalled Ledger live after a Windows re-install. I realised that I should not have to reset the device but was puzzled when my original accounts did not show up in Ledger Live. This video made clear what was going on. One thing I perhaps could add is that I found that instead of manually re-adding the details of the original accounts, I found that I could restore these by copying the files from a back up of \AppData\Roaming\Ledger Live\ to the equivalent folder overwriting the files created by the Ledger Live install.

[@2335-t7u]

14:12 So, why did the nano not have the Ethereum and Litecoin apps installed? If it has Ethereum and Litecoin wallets inside it, then is *must* have the corresponding apps too, no? Because you need the app first before you can create the wallet. I might be misunderstanding something. Also, what exactly did you mean by "dilemma" here? It looks like you did the exact same thing as with the previous device: you wanted to manage a particular crypto, so you just went and installed the required app. Sounds like the same procedure. What was different exactly?

[@CryptoDad]

In answer to your first question, not necessarily. The corresponding apps do not need to be installed for the wallets to be there. I know that sounds weird. They just needed to have been there at one point in the past. Once a wallet has been created and funded, the ledger will always remember it. But it's not actually remembering it. It is simply recreating it from its master private key. I think what I was trying to demonstrate here was that the older Ledger Nano S did not have room for a whole lot of apps. And so you had to shuffle them on and off to access your various accounts. So basically you can install an app, create a wallet, and then delete the app. And if at any point in the future you reinstall that app, it will access the exact same wallet. Because the master private key of the device will always create the exact same wallet every time. The master private key is used to generate the subkeys for each crypto wallet and it's deterministic. It doesn't just create wallets randomly. It creates them based on a specific pattern. But that pattern is based on your unique randomly-generated master private key. The "dilemma" that I was referring to was that the ledger nano s does not have enough room to hold all of the apps for all of the cryptos said I was managing. That's why I was demonstrating the fact that you have to delete some to reinstall others (shuffle apps). The newer legend Nano S Plus has a lot more room and you don't have to go through all this shuffling to manage multiple cryptos.

[@kingjames007]

Awesome video! I didn't have to enter my phrases to my new laptop. What if someone stole my ledger device? They will need my pin code to acces without the 24 phrase password?

Hello ... please tell me how to solve this matter .. since yesterday I can't use my LEDGER mobile application ..evry time I open the App it remain"s for few seconds then it closes and goes to the mobile desktop screen

I understand how to add the ledger to the new laptop....but what about the metamask that I was using with the ledger? It was an old laptop& I won't turn on to access my seed phrase from that metamask

[@cryptojohnng003nguy4]

Thank for this nice video. I have succesfully install a new ledgerlive on my new device mac laptop. Have also succesfully add and reconnect all my assets. But the ledgerlive didn't show the "total balance amount" of all my assets. That space is empty now. How come?

[@jackgoldstein9297]

Well done tutorial. I have a new machine and the old is only a VM and now difficult to access. I reinstalled the Ledger Live on the Host and cannot see what should be on the device. Should I just restore from the 24 word phrase??

[@laname928]

Could you tell me if the password for ledger live on the first PC will stay the same (and work with the Nano), when you set up ledger live like in this instruction with a different password on a new PC? Thank you.

[@buccos2004]

Your help is so greatly appreciated. Ledger should have this process take just a few clicks, crypto isn't going to get widespread adoption when the wallets are so clunky and hard to understand. It shouldn't be a 50 step process to install ledger on a new laptop or phone.

[@Quickeasytastyrecipes]

Hi there Great video. I didn't see the nano x asking for the pin#. I have one . Do I need to ? My ledger live for some reason doesn't recognize my password. So I bought a new computer. So I can install ledger live on my new computer right?. Can you help me Thank you Carlos. B

[@CryptoDad]

Yeah it’s weird that they don’t force you to create one anymore. You can go to settings in Ledger Live and turn on password lock. Then it will ask you to create one

[@Quickeasytastyrecipes]

@@CryptoDad Thank you I meant the pin # for nano X. I didn't see you putting the pin on the nano x

[@CryptoDad]

@@Quickeasytastyrecipes I try to include every step. But sometimes in the editing I might skip a few things. You always need to re-enter the pin if you disconnect the device and reconnect it.

[@CryptoDad]

Just reread this thread. If you’re just reinstalling Ledger Live on a new computer, your leisure device should retain the original pin that you created. Unless of course you reset the device. But just moving an existing device to a new computer should still require the pin that you originally created. In order to unlock the device

[@Quickeasytastyrecipes]

@@CryptoDad Thank you You really are awesome 👏👍👍

[@Beats_and_Shades]

If i have one laptop already setup with ledger live and then set up another one and made some accounts/ transactions what will I need to do on the first setup laptop to see all these transactions etc.. ? I hope you understand my question. Many thanks 🙏

[@mehdiizadi8243]

Thank you, CryptoDad!

[@starsthedog]

What if all the apps are not on the device, cause nano s doesn't support this much apps?
