How can I restore 1 picture from time capsule

I am trying to import 1 picture from my time capsule backup. It only allows me to do 1.

The process is a bit different if you are rerring to an image in iPhoto.
If that is is the case, make sure Time Machine is closed.
From the dock, open iPhoto as you normally would
From the iPhoto File menu at the upper left hand corner of the screen. select Browse Backups
Using the scale at the right of the Time Machine window, go back to a date when you know that you had the impage on your computer
Navigate using Events or Photos to locate your image
Click Restore at the bottom of the Time Machine window to restore your image
Close Time Machine

  • How can I restore photos from Time Capsule/Machine w/o getting lots of duplicates?

    Hi All,
    I recently "lost" some photos and tried going into Time Capsule/Machine to restore them.  I went to applications, opened Time Machine, got the "Star Wars" like screen, scrolled to the appropriate date (I thought), clicked on that date, went to my user name, clicked on Pictures and then clicked on iPhoto Library.  It asked me if I wanted to create a copy called iPhoto Library2 and I said yes. 
    Next I clicked on restore and it began restoring my iPhoto Library from that day.  Unfortunately it created copy after copy after copy of each photo, hundreds!!  And it broke down each photo into faces. Again and again and again. Bottom line is that since I must have picked the wrong date my pics weren't there.
    I decided to delete iPhoto Library 2 and there were some 130,000 items to delete.  Then it took about 24 hours to secure empty my trash.
    So my question is how can I avoid this next time?  I really want to get these photos back but am afraid to try it again.
    Thanks in advance for any advice!  They are of my 19 year old niece's visit to Australia so the pressure is on!
    Kindest regards,
    Becky

    You might post this query on the iPhoto forum and perhaps someone there can provide an answer.
    I tried this on my MBP and it seems that you have to restore the entire iPhoto Library.  What I did was put the current library in a separate folder on the desktop and then I restored the library from a prior date.  If you were to do that, you then could extract the desired photos and then delete the restored library.  Then place the current library back to the original location and import the desired photos.
    Not tidy but it seems it will work.
    Ciao.

  • I deleted my contacts by mistake and can't restore them from time capsule

    Please Help!!
    I deleted around 4000 contacts by mistake with a script deleting the annoying duplicates that come with cloud syncs.
    I can't restore them from my time capsule, I have read other posts and they suggest to copy the contacts folder in a back up from my time machine, Time Machine volume -> Users ->Yued1 -> Library -> Application Support -> CONTACTS, coping the folder in to my desktop and deleting the one in my computer all with out internet connection so iCloud won't cause problems, export the contacts, connect to the internet and then once connected let iCloud do its thing and then import the exported contacts, it all sounds good but when I mount my time capsule volume I get the folder backups.backupdb>Yued's Macbook Pro>(The backup folder of the date I choose)>Macintosh HD>Users>yued1 but Inside yued1 there is no Library folder, I did the command in terminal to show all files and folders, terminal accepted it relaunched finder but still won't see library, the only folder in my time capsule with library, is inside Macintosh HD but doesn't have a contacts folder inside application support.
    I have OS 10.9.4 processor 2.2 GHz i7 and 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    I don't know what time capsule I have except that is a 1TB from 2011
    I really appreciate your time helping me out. thank you!

    Thanks for your help,
    It takes forever to go from one window to another back in time, once I get to the one I want and click restore It goes back to my desktop as it would when restoring something else but the contacts stay the same...
    I do see all the deleted contacts in the snapshots, but can't restore them

  • How can I remove backup from time capsule?

    I have a new Imac and transferred my documents and settings via time capsule from my previous Imac to my new Imac.
    I have removed my account and data etc from my first Imac and gave this one to my daughter.
    When trying activate time capsule on my new Imac I can not make backups because there is not enough space.
    Also I can not make the machine understand that the backup on the time capsule is from the data on this new Imac.
    So my only option? Is to delete all the backups from my timecapsule and start new.
    How do I delete the backups from my timecapsule?

    If you want to completely erase the Time Capsule drive and start over.....
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click the Disks icon
    Click the Disks tab just below the icon
    Click Erase
    The "Quick Erase" option will only take few moments

  • In Ical I lost one of my calendar group, how do I restore it from time capsule

    in Ical i lost one of my calendar groups, how do I get it back.  I have a time capsule.
    thanks

    salvsalinas,
    Look in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library Folder, where you will find a "Calendars" Folder, which can be replaced using Time Machine.
    Make sure that you quit iCal before attempting to replace the folder, and choose a timeline when the group last existed.
    Good Luck.

  • How can I restore iCal from time machine

    Hi can I restore the data from iCal from time machine?

    The data is in ~/Library/Calendars 
    The folders have gibberish names; you can't tell which folder is which calendar, so you probably need to restore the entire folder.
    But if you have your Calendars synched via iCloud, there may not be anything there, since iCloud is where the "real" data resides.

  • Entourage 2008 calendar deleted. How can i restore it from time machine backup?

    I have my Entourage 2008 calendar sync with ical. I accidentally deleted Entourage on the left column of ical, and it deleted the calendar on on Entourage. I want to restore the calendar. I have used time machine to backup my hard drive. I just don't know how or what to do.

    Quit iCal.
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, copy the text on the line below into the box that opens, and press return:
    ~/Library/Calendars
    Enter Time Machine and restore the selected folder from the last snapshot that was taken before the deletion. Relaunch iCal and test.

  • How can I restore iMessages from Time Machine to a clean install?

    Hello,
    I just recently did a clean install of Mavericks.  I was wondering how to transfer all my saved iMessages from my Time Machine drive to this clean install?
    Thanks in advance!

    Sign out of iMessage and all other IM accounts, if any. Quit Messages. Hold down the option key and select
              Go ▹ Library
    from the Finder menu bar. A folder window will open.
    Enter Time Machine and restore the subfolder named "Messages" from a backup that predates the unwanted changes, then log out and log back in.
    If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, delete the subfolder Containers/com.apple.iChat.

  • How can I restore HD from Time Machine on 10.7?

    My daughter's MacBook Air had water damage and hard drive was replaced. She has a full backup on time machine. She has already turned on the computer with the new hard drive on and clicked "later" when prompted to restore. What do we need to do to now get all the contents of her hard drive as backed up on TM moved on to her new HD?

    Do I hold down command R when I startup?
    Yes.
    Does this partition the computer's hard drive and therefore use up part of the space?
    No. The recovery partition was created when you installed Lion. It's invisible.
    Any known problems from doing it this way rather than re-installing Lion and using Set Up Assistant?
    As long as you have a full backup to restore from, it should be the same.

  • How can I delete .sparsebundle  from Time Capsule?

    Hi, can anyone help me with my problem?
    I want to delete backup of my iMac from TimeCapsule to create a fresh new one.
    But it seems not so easy.
    I've turned off TimeMachine on iMac and tried to delete sparsebundle from TimeCapsule via Finder. Result is infinite waiting for removal in Finder dialog window.
    I've tried to select 'no backup disk' in TimeMachine preferences but got the same result.
    All software and firmware are updated to latest versions.
    I cannot erase the whole TimeCapsule drive as described in other posts here because I have a backup of my MacBook Pro on it and I need to keep it.
    Thank you for any help and information.

    Thank you Bob.
    Finally my old backup has been deleted.
    It seems I was waiting not enough.
    Anyway thanks for advice and care
    Now I'm waiting for my new backup to create.
