I am about to install Arduino on a new iMac and wondered if there is an easy way to copy libraries and boards that I have added or do I need to install them one at a time on the new machine.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

You can do a portable installation, and then just copy the directory tree to another machine.
I use this also for having 11 separate Arduino IDE's on my PC (different versions and/or customized)
I have a Windows PC and I see that for the Imac it's not officially supported.
You can copy them. I use the AppImage for Linux so I put everything in "/home/$USER/Arduino" (I believe that's default) and use git to sync that one directory. On an older Apple laptop I did use the .dmg but I don't remember the default directory structure.... (not sure if I ever looked )
Thanks for the replies, I tried to copy the directory with the sketches and libraries in it and it seems to have worked.
