[QUOTE="ItalianDream125, post: 1379321, member: 241715"] I have an external hard drive which I was using to back up my old Mac using Time Machine. When I got a new Mac I manually transferred just the files I needed to the new Mac and then I used the same external hard drive to back up my new Mac using Time Machine. I deleted the backups of the old Mac thinking I got all I needed. However, I forgot to look for my Skype chat history, so it's been deleted. Does anyone know of any way those files might be recovered? I really appreciate any help anyone can provide! Thanks! :) [/QUOTE]
