Upgrading from 7 to 8 on new PC and synching with old 7 used on old PC and iPad/iPhone

 

Please add this step to you sparse migration instructions, which somehow give a linear path through the process, with no 'if this happens do this' type info. Poor. 

Install 7 on new PC

Install 8 on new PC

import 7 to 8 with prompt, this is told in the instructions but not given if 7 is not already installed. Thanks.
