[QUOTE="Alwyn, post: 1872685, member: 153944"] There’s a lot for me to digest here but I’ll try to answer the key issues requiring answers. After Big Sur was installed I restored from a CCC backup of my 2014 iMac While The installation was proceeding I took the 2014 iMac into another room and erased the Time Machine backup on a separate external disk drive using disk utility. I then did a new backup. Obviously this means that it was later than the CCC backup. Your question what is ‘it’ that can’t recognise the new Time Machine backup? Answer: in System Preferences/Time Machine I see Time Machine 1. It reads 733 GB available, Oldest backup: None, Latest Backup: None. Looking in the same place with Time Machine connected to the 2014 iMac it reads Only backup 6 January 2021. [/QUOTE]
