[QUOTE="evoMR, post: 990076, member: 142088"] Hey guys! This is my first post so please be easy on me. I am currently in the process of backing up and restoring my Macbook Pro (mid-2009) and was wondering: i. For applications, can I just copy them to my external drive and than after the re-install, recopy them back to my Macbook? ii. Also, for application settings, is there a way to copy and paste them too? Or is there a way to back them up so that I could just easily restore the settings? That's pretty much it. Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
