Anyhow, it sounds like you already accomplished what you needed, but I figured I'd post this just in case this information proves useful in the future Instead, once a partition has been brought down to the destination, it is fixed at that point on disk, hence the need to work left to right one at a time when you will be adjusting intermediate partitions. It would be nice, and make the wizard more intuitive, if it were possible to initially copy everything down to the destination as-is (creating an "overrun" scenario on the target disk), then shrink "intermediate" partitions such that everything would fit, and THEN for the wizard to allow dragging subsequent partitions to the left on the disk to "snap" them to the end of the newly shrunk preceding partitions, but for some reason that isn't possible. It might have been helpful to post screenshots of your existing disk's partition layout and how Reflect adjusted the destination disk's staged layout after clicking those buttons, but basically, if the partition you wanted to shrink in order to make everything fit onto the larger disk was NOT the last partition on the disk, then you have to drag the source partitions down to target one at a time, working left to right, and when you get to the partition you want to shrink on the destination, adjust its properties as desired before dragging down subsequent partitions. The free version of Reflect can perform this type of clone operation as well, minus the ability to use Rapid Delta Clone, but that doesn't work in partition shrink scenarios anyway.

Think about that, something that I got for free works and does what it's suppose to and a software application I paid over $100 to purchase doesn't have the same capability.

I'm currently using a free cloning application to install my new SSD. It works great for imaging but it's about as intuitive as a bag of rocks when using the cloning function. Stop trying to make things unnecessarily complicated and fix your software. Especially when I paid for the 4 pack of this software. If I clicked on "Minimum size" it showed 43GB partition size and the rest unformated raw space. However it didn't do this, It showed less than a few MB used. I clicked maximum size and what it should have done is show an almost 500GB partition with 43 GB used. There were around 43 GB used on the 1 TB drive and I was going to a new 500 GB SSD. I tried clicking on "Maximum size" and it just didn't work correctly. Most cloning software will adjust the partitions automatically and "sense" that you are cloning from a larger drive to a smaller one.
Finally click on OK to start the cloning process.I tried cloning from a larger disk to a smaller SSD today with Macrium.You will need a blank hard drive or a partition that you have created. Before clicking on Finish to start the cloning, take note that all the data present on the backup partition Destination will be erased. Now Macrium Reflect offers you to schedule your disk cloning.Your blank disc should automatically add itself as a Destination. Select the volume to back up in " Source"then the disk where your backup will be stored in Destination clicking on Select a disk to clone to.

First of all, download and install Macrium Reflect Free.

How to use Macrium Reflect to clone hard drive? Note that Macrium Reflect Free is free for personal use only.
In the event of a problem, you will have to plug in your new disk (if your backup resides in an external hard disk, you will have to boot from USB) or start on the new partition from the BIOS. The program can then make this backup partition Bootable and assign it the same fingerprints as your original partition.
