[QUOTE="Allalum, post: 1431351, member: 265025"] Thank you mrplow. Since my post I have been researching Time Machine and while it is much better than windows backup, like you said, it doesn't provide the Archive type backup I seek. I have reservations about copying the whole iPhoto Library as I saw on a forum something about messing up the "library" and not being able to retrieve some files. I am interested in the option of "open up the iPhoto Library 'package' and just copy the originals to an external". By this do you mean: Open iPhoto. Open event. Select photos. Go File>Export and change Kind to 'Original' then click export? Alternatively I like the idea of copying and exporting but not sure what you mean (as in how). Again, thank you for your guidance.. it is REALLY appreciated. [/QUOTE]
