Thanks, in advance, for any help.
I keep my iTunes/iTunes Music folder on an external HD.
I want to restore a previous version from Time Machine but the error message is that there isn't enough room on the external drive to do the restore.
I could trash some music in order to make room on the external drive but that seems a bit scary. Does it sound as dangerous to you as it does to me?
An alternative could be to get a new larger external drive.
But, is it possible to do a restore from Time Machine to a new empty external HD?
I'd prefer not to buy a new drive so if Option 1 (trash some content and restore from Time Machine) is safe, that would be great.
Option 2 - can a restore from Time Machine be executed to a new external HD?
If both are possible, which is preferable?
What say ye enlightened folks?
