Hey guys,
So, I upgraded my hard drive, and after going through the install, it appears time machine has not done what it promised. When I attempted to restore to the new drive (twice now), absolutely 0 applications were restored. Not even OS programs such as safari and time machine...
So now what? What is the best way to get everything from my old (now external) drive onto my new (now internal) drive? I read a bit about CCC, but I'm confused if it will be possible to clone from external to internal. (i.e. would I boot from the external drive and install CCC there? Or install CCC on my internal (which currently doesn't even have an OS)).
If I did migration assistant, would everything be exactly the same? Even applications?
I'd really appreciate some help.
Very bummed about time machine's failure...
Ps. I really don't want to have to put the old drive back in if possible
