After back up, can i choose only certain files to restore?

I am currently backing up my entire Macbook so i can reinstall Leopard. I was wondering after the reinstallation of Leopard if i can be able to choose only certain files like my music, pictures, ETC? Because i would like to start to use the root account.

As Duane has mentioned, you will be able to access Time Machine backups from your computer by setting Time Machine up again and choosing your Time Capsule as the backup disk. You will need your TC disk password as well.
I think I recall a user who said he could not access his backups after reinstalling the operating system on his machine. He couldn't remember the TC password and...he could not go back into KeyChain Access to try to retrieve his password because the application had been reinstalled, erasing the old stored data. Keep your TC password in a safe place as you will not be able to access the TC without it.
In the event that you are having difficulty with restoring Time Machine backups, you also have the ability to use Migration Assistant to move files back from the TC to your computer. You will need your TC password to do this as well. You won't be able to selectively choose just the files you want to move, but you can always go back into your hard drive and delete the files that you don't want or need.

Can I choose which backup file to restore?

Just lost my data off my 3GS, which would hang during the backup, sync, upgrade process every time I tried to go from OS 3 to 4 in the past 6 mos or so.
Went to Apple store, decided to just trash everything, restart on OS 4 and just use most recent successful backup to restore. Ended up upgrading to an iPhone 4 instead...
Came home and looked up my .mdbackup files and there are three of the them. May, October and November of 2010. I plugged in my new phone, hoping to access the most recent backup and it shows only the May one.
Is there any way to access and restore to what appears to be the most recent November backup file?
Thanks.

Thanks Barney - is it really that simple? I didn't think to do that. Will try that this evening. Appreciated.

I'm wanting to migrate certain applications from my MacBook Pro over to my newer Mini, but Migration Assistant doesn't allow doing this by choosing which applications to migrate-how can I pick only certain ones?

You only bought it four months ago, so it's still under warrantly.
Call Applecare or call your nearest Applestore to make an appointment. Tell them your mac has serious technical issues, describe them shortly.

Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
I found the answer to my question.
When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.

Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

Hey ilyaz20360341,
Could you please specify how exactly did you transfer Acrobat from one MAC to other.
You might need to deactivate the software from your old machine and then activate it on the new one with the same serial number (for Acrobat license) or Adobe credentials (for Acrobat subscription).
If you have done the same way, then let me know if you are able to open Acrobat itself.
Do you get any specific error message while opening a PDF?
Hope to get your response.
Regards,
Anubha

How to restore only certain files

i did an erase and install (hopefully to remove a problem that we and the apple store genius have ben unable to find. . i did not yet use time machine to migrate all files to the macbook because i want to migrate only certain files. how do i migrate only some files selectively, and not all of them as would happen in doing a complete restore ?

Yes. You'll need to use the TM "Star Wars" interface to locate the files and restore.

Premiere Pro CS5 crashing when exporting (only certain file types)

Hi
I have found that when I try and export media in Premiere Pro CS5, it often crashes during the export. It says
It's only certain file types. For instance, Vimeo HD seems okay but Vimeo SD always crashes mid-export. MPEG is okay too, but MPEG2-DVD always crashes.
Sometimes it says this: "Error Compiling Movie - Unknown Error" but doesn't throw me out of Premiere altogether.
Other times it crashes altogether and Windows gives me this error message: "Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 258.96 stopped responding and has successfully recovered". Premiere Pro then stops responding so I have to re-open it and start exporting again.
I have checked there are no gaps in my timeline and I have rendered the whole work area. Besides, I doubt it's anything that I'm doing wrong with the project itself because it's exporting fine in some formats.
I am also experiencing random crashes when editing too. Not that often, but occasionally it throws me out - and twice it has made the whole screen go crazy, with weird dotting across the screen (it's scary, it looks like the monitor itself has broken!).
Any help would be appreciated!
Nick
PS I have a pretty decent new PC - Dell Studio XPS, 8GB, 2x1TB drives, etc. Premiere itself is working great, except for these crashes.

Some drivers do not work well in some systems... so go to nVidia and try a different (usually newer) driver for your card
These notes are for Encore, but they MAY also work in Premiere

HT1386 i have an old i touch. it's full and won't sync at all. how can i choose only the cd's i want from itunes on my desk top to sync into the itouch? if i just plug it in it just tells me it's full leaving my old music in place. is there a way?

how can i (if i evan can) select only certain cd's stored in my itunes to sync into my itouch. right now i have too much music loaded into my itunes - desktop and when i try to sync my 16gb itouch it just tells me it can not sync because there is not enough space and i realize that. can i pick and choose from my desktop what i want going into my itouch? help would be wonderful and i would need pretty detailed info for a guy like me to get it done - thanks

With the iPod connected to the computer go to the Music pane for the iPod in iTunes and check the box that says sync only checked songs. The check the songs you want synced and click on Sync. For more info see:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod

I just purchased Aperture and have 20,000 photos in my iPhoto Library. Can I import only certain events from iPhoto into Aperture or do I have to merge the whole iPhoto library?

I just purchased Aperture and have 20,000 + photos in my iPhoto Library. I see that I can create a unified library between the two. I am wondering if I can import only certain events from iPhoto (like only 2014 events) into Aperture or do I have to merge the whole iPhoto library? Are there any benefits to bringing the whole iPhoto library over to Aperture (iPhoto is SO SLOW for me, I wonder if it is because I have so many photos). Or, any detriment to only bring a few events over?
And, if I don't merge the two libraries, I assume that means I cannot do it at a later date?
Help. My local Apple store has had very few Aperture workshops, and the next one is like 2 months away.

Thank you so much for this information. Here are some responses/comments:
Disk space - it says 114.43 GB out of 499.25 GB free. I have no idea if that is enough.
iPhoto version is 9.5.1
Again, I am not sure how to know if I have 3rd party software...but I don't think I do. Is 3rd party software anything non-apple?
I will try rebuilding the library. if that doesn't help, maybe I need more memory...? That is what Apple suggested, but that, of course, means buying something else. I've already bought APERTURE, on their recommendation...
It wasn't, and they told me it was slow because I had too many photos for iPhoto to handle and that I should buy Aperture. Which I did.
What is your iPhoto version? Are you using the most recent version 9.5.1?
iPhoto can handle 20000 photos, no problem. Your computer can be slow for several reasons:
The most common problem for slowness - insufficient disk space. Don't let your free disk space drop below 20 GB of free space, better more. If the operating system does not have enough working space and the applications you are using, you will notice a very lagging behaviour.
Older or incompatible softweare can cripple your mac. Do you have any older third-party software installed, that might have installed incompatible kernel extensions?
Aperture might be slow or keep crashing, if you imported a corrupted image or incompatible video, that cannot be processed. Then Aperture will try over and over again to create previews and never succeed. You could test for this situation, by launching Aperture with the Shift-key held down. This will defer the generation of previews. If Aperture will launch and work better this way, you probably have some bad media in your photo library.
Another problem to check for is a corruption of your Aperture/iPhoto library. You have run the First Aid Tools to repair the iPhoto Library, but have you ever tried to rebuild the library? See this post by Old Toad: Rebuild iPhoto Version 11

Why can't I delete certain files from my Time Capsule?

I don't have my Time Capsule set up to back up every hour or so. It's set up so that I can manually drag & drop files into it. I've been trying to free up space by deleting some movie files that don't need anymore. They appear to be just .avi format but I haven't been paying close enough attention to see if any other formats won't delete. What prevents certain files from being deleted from the Time Capsule?

What about the setting for "Secure Shared Disks"?

I didn't check EVERY single video and their info but a few I checked had the same permissions: "Everyone" and "Read & Write"
I only asked about each folder down the hierarchy to and including one video you can't delete.
If you copy a new file into each of the higher-level folders down to and including the "MOVIES" folder, can you then delete that new file?
If you're willing to use a command in a Terminal session, I can tell you how to determine what process has a file open.
I'll be offline for the next few hours, so I won't be able to reply as quickly as I've been for the last several exchanges.

How can I read only text files in a directory.

I've written a program to read files in a directory but I'd like for it to only read the text files of that directory.
import java.io.*;
public class Data {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
String target_dir = "C:\\files";
File dir = new File(target_dir);
File[] files = dir.listFiles();
for (File textfiles : files) {
if (textfiles.isFile()) {
BufferedReader inputStream = null;
try {
inputStream = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(textfiles));
String line;
while ((line = inputStream.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
} finally {
if (inputStream != null) {
inputStream.close();

You have mentioned you want to read only text files.
If you are referring to some specific set of extentions, you can filter based on that.
ex: you want to read only .txt files, you can add an if condition as below :
if(textfiles.getName().endsWith(".txt")) {
// Add your code here
Cheers

How can I sync only certain apps after a restore instead of all of them?

I've been serisouly frustrated with iTunes trying to find a way to sync only the apps I want to sync. But iTunes insists that I sync every single app I have downloaded in the past to my phone and I don't want all of them on there. Now after restoring I have a bunch of apps on my phone waiting to sync and now have to either restore again or individually delete all 155 of them. Are there certain settings I'm missing here? Please help!!

Thanks for the help I did not receive
Hey, glad I didn't help.
I mean, you waited a whole 38 minutes for someone to volunteer their assistance.
FYI:
Select the iPhone in iTunes.
Click the Apps tab.
Click Sync apps and tick the apps you want to sync.
Click Apply at bottom.
You're welcome.
After literally digging for forever.
Something less than 38 minutes is forever? (time it took to post first question, find answer, get upset and post 2nd time).
Oh, and thanks for posting how you resolved the issue so others (who may not get an immediate reply) will know how to solve a similar issue without getting upset.

Restoring only certain files after reinstall

Hi Everyone,
I want to do a fresh install of Mavericks on my Mac Mini because it's become bloated with a bunch of work stuff and is super slow. I don't need any of the stuff in my own profile as it's now all on my MBP. When I do the restore from Time Machine I just want to restore my wife's profile and only her iTunes and iPhoto libraries - the rest can be trashed.
Is there a way to just chose certain applications and folders to be restored? Or do I need to clean up everything first, back up and then reinstall Mavericks and restore from the new backup?
Cheers,
Adam

I think so. See if this helps:

After back up, can i choose only certain files to restore?
