[QUOTE="Alcuinson, post: 1523961, member: 58186"] My daughter's MacBook was stolen; her replacement machine is a Windows8 laptop; we have her external HD with TimeMachine(TM) backups on it -- How do we get the pictures, music, and documents (about 50 GB?) from the TM backup disk to an external Hard drive that we can share/connect to the Windows laptop? -- I have access to a Mac Mini, but it only has about 4 GB of free space on its hard drive -- we have purchased a 1 TB Western Digital(WD) My Passport drive as her new "PC backup" drive, and wish to use it as the transfer mechanism -- The Mac Mini (OS X version 10.6.8) sees WD drive and the TM drive -- I've tried Migration assistant, but when I select all of the files that I want to transfer, I get a negative number in "Remaining Space" and therefore no option to "Continue" 00 any thoughts/help is appreciated.
