[QUOTE="anfieldgirl, post: 912673, member: 122707"] Hey guys, I'm planning to do a clean install soon and I just want to make sure I get this right. I just have some questions to ask. 1. When I create the backup file, I'm going to be placing my files on a iPod (I don't have an actual hard drive). So I'm planning to copy the following, I just have some questions. - Documents - Pictures - Movies [B]- Applications (will the applications work when I move them back?) - Library (is this essential?) - System (is this essential?)[/B] 2. After the backup, do I just put the disk in and click "Erase and Install" and wait? 3. Once its done I place the files back? Please do reply, your comments will really be appreciated. Thank You!
