[QUOTE="Matthewdw, post: 701291, member: 62927"] Hello, New here. Apple is replacing my old G5 with the new Imac due to some hardware issues. Apple Rocks! :Cool: The problem is the old machine needs to leave me before the new one will be shipped (understandable). I just connected a 500GB Maxtor Onetouch4 to save all my stuff until the new Imac gets here. Looks like the hard drive backups movies,music,photos and documents automatically. My questions are what other things should I be aware of that need to be saved manually? I'm trying to think of things like bookmarks but am afraid after the old Imac is long gone I'll be missing stuff. And My wife is set up as a separate user to keep her Itunes apart from mine but after backing up both users when I look in the drive I can only find data relevant to which ever user is in play at the time? Thanks. I know I'm mostly a flashing 12:00 and hope this isn't too boring. Matt [url]http://www.matthewdwalker.com/[/url] [/QUOTE]
