[QUOTE="goobimama, post: 566676, member: 17032"] The problem is it is very difficult to find your way through TM files using the Finder or something like that. It is designed to work with the TM interface or you can restore that entire drive onto a new computer while installing Leopard. Try and copy one of those aliases. I've heard a lot of things about TM having hard links and soft links and whatnot. If I got it right, those aliases will actually be the original files. [/QUOTE]
