[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1129972, member: 46727"] If you did the procedure correctly, Time Machine should have restored everything including documents, photos, music, apps, etc. I have done this several times and always got a complete restore. Are you sure you made a complete TM backup and not exclude anything? If you have a complete TM backup and some things did not get restored, go ahead and try to manually restore them. In my opinion, a better way to swap hard drives and retain everything is to use cloning software such as Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper, however, Time Machine should work as I stated above.
