[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1845445, member: 204485"] I think you are saying you have a new iMac 2020. If you have an old Time Machine backup, from an older device (Computer) and you want to restore data from it to your new iMac you will need to use Migration Assistant. Have a look at this article. It's a bit old but the process is still much the same. If it works or not may depend on what computer and OS was backed up. [URL="https://www.macworld.com/article/2066996/how-to-transfer-backups-from-time-machine-to-a-new-mac.html"]How to transfer backups from Time Machine to a new Mac | Macworld[/URL] Let us know what results you get from Disk Utility first. PS. Super Duper is an alternative to Time Machine but different in the way it works. I have TM and a Clone copy of my hard drive. [/QUOTE]
