[QUOTE="stuartie-b, post: 1802979, member: 400810"] Hi, I'm considering getting a new iMac and if I do I'll use my Time Machine back up to transfer files/applications over. I was wondering, when I do this, does it also copy over the OS I have on my old mac, or does it only transfer over all the files/applications but update the OS to whatever is on the new mac assuming it is a later OS. I currently have Sierra and I ask this because I'm concerned some older apps I rely on mightn't work on High Sierra. Thanks [/QUOTE]
