[QUOTE="Cybernettr, post: 1842798, member: 403729"] No, all of the original files had to be restored manually (dragged over). I know that is not the ideal situation because it can cause permissions problems. So, I had the Genius Bar guys do it under warranty. I am still on 10.11.6 because this Mac is working fairly well and I am now afraid to update the OS because of the restore problems, in case something goes wrong with the update. However, I am considering upgrading because there is software (newest RapidWeaver) that I want to use that won't run on this version of the OS. That's one reason I am rethinking my backup strategy.
