[QUOTE="Narpstar, post: 1186632, member: 186900"] Hmm.. I didn't actually ever do a Time Machine backup. I just took the hard drive with OS X on it out of the iMac. It seems lots of things didn't transfer over... most of the Applications transferred without a problem (although my Steam games are not installed, even though Steam is). Settings carried over. The things which didn't were: Libraries (iTunes, iPhoto, etc.), and documents and files which I had just stored in folders. [/QUOTE]
