[QUOTE="NAP1947, post: 1291645, member: 80102"] I read here a lot but have not had to post very much, however, I have caused myself a Time Machine problem that I need help with. I have both an iMac and MacBook Pro. The MBP is getting old and performance is down. I did a migration from the MBP to a new account on the iMac then copied all necessary files to the old main account on the iMac. Here is where I screwed up. I set up Time Machine figuring it would do an incremental to my iMac. It did not happen, it created a new full backup and now I cannot access my old backup stuff just the new one. I looked at the MyBookWorld I use for Time Machine and it appears the files are there based on the disc space. I want to end up with access to all my backed up files in some manner. How do I sort out the mess I have created for myself? [/QUOTE]
