Laptop died... can I rescue files from Time Machine back up and transfer to my kids iMac?

Hi. Not sure this is the right forum, could not find a Time Machine forum.
My 18 month old white Macbook has died (screen and track pad). I cannot afford a new one. I have a time machine backup. Is there a way to either
1. Take the HDD from the laptop and put it into an external HDD enclosuer, plug it into someone else Mac and access my Pages folders etc.
2. Or can I swap out a HDD from another macbook, install the HDD from the dead macbook and use it as normal...
3. Plug in my TM backup into another mac and (kids have macbooks and iMacs) and access my pages folders etc...
4. Or do some other combination of things to get up and running until I can buy another machine?
Many, many thanks for your help.

As long as the machine that is recovering the drive is not older than what's on the drive, and it has enough room to support all the contents of the drive it should work with the Migration Assistant.   Otherwise a piecemeal recovery may be needed.

  • Can't restore files from Time machine backup?

    I kinda successfully restored my files from Time Machine after a clean re-install of Snow Leopard (Time Machine thought they were new files, though, so backed up the 26 GB... waste of space), but now I'm trying to restore the files of the other user on the computer. In her pictures folder, I can't copy the iPhoto Library because I don't have permission to access it! The same problem occurred on my account too, but I was able to go to my Time Machine drive and manually change the permissions for the files I wanted, which doesn't work on her account.
    I have made a Youtube video of the error:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1__PdyAetVg
    Can anyone assist me in restoring the files? That's all I need help in. Thanks

    If the problems were caused by your data. But that's extremely unlikely. It may have been an app, or, much more likely from your description, something corrupted in the Leopard OS. That's one of the problems with upgrading a sick system without knowing what or where the causes are. It's a bit like a brain surgeon operating on himself: if he isn't in tip-top shape to start with, his condition is likely to change, and not for the better.
    Most of us would have recommended first simply doing a +*Repair Disk+* on your internal HD; if that didn't help, installing the "combo" Leopard update; if that didn't work, doing an +Archive and Install+ and re-installing the "combo."
    After a clean re-install of Snow Leopard, my Mac worked fine again (except for the TM trouble). So it probably had something to do with my old files.
    Probably not. Much more likely OSX was somehow damaged. And you got a whole new one.
    How come I could read the files on my external HD and yet not be able to copy the files?
    Time Machine uses special "deny everybody everything" permissions on it's backups, among other things, in an attempt to keep us mere mortals from moving, changing, or deleting things and corrupting them.

  • Time machine on external drive will not back up itunes media file on a separate external drive. Have already reformated itunes media drive,dragged itunes media backup file from time machine (old copy) and removed time machine plist and restarted.

    Two external drives, one for time machine backups and a second (daisy chained firewire) for itunes media folder . Time machine fails to backup the media file saying could not be completed, with no error specified. Steps taken already include reformating drive with media, dragging older media backup file from time machine disc to media disc, and deleting time machine plist and starting time macine preferences upon startup. Media folder is approx 200 gb, mostly ripped dvd movies.
    Any help for this??

  • How Can I Erase Files From Time Machine ?!

    After or while installing 10.6 I had a problem with MAIL which caused my old mail to duplicate itself ... many times. So those files ended up being many Gigs. I didn't realize this so Time Machine backed up those super swelled folders! It filled up my 1T back up HD.
    I know have a 2T HD that I want to use as my new Time Machine HD, but I would first like to get rid of those giant old Mail folders.
    How can I accomplish that? Since they are back up files I can't seem to just delete them ...

    See #12 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.

  • Need advice (help!) Can I get files from Time Machine to a PC

    My Mac book's HD I think is dead. I have an external HD with Time Machine back ups on it. I really NEED to get my address book contacts off and onto my back up PC, for right now. Is there even a way to do that?? and while Im at it what about iTunes library?
    Please tell me there is a way.

    Chad,
    I must disagree with Nerowolf on this one. You should be able to get the items you need off the drive, even connected to a PC.
    Contrary to what Nerowolf believes, Time Machine stores backups as standard, complete files; it does not make "incremental" backups in the traditional sense. Each and every backup includes every file from the source, and each one is a complete file.
    The trick with Time Machine is that the data associated with those many, many files is only copied to the drive once, and each "iteration" of the same file links to that single copy of the data. The process whereby this occurs is called "multiple hard links," and the resultant files are called "multi-linked files."
    You need not be concerned with all this. The important point is that the files are seen as normal files to you and to the OS.
    The real problem, however, is that those files are stored on a volume formatted as HFS+, and Windows cannot normally access this file system. If you attempt to connect your Time Machine drive to a PC, it will want to format it. If you really need to access the drive, you'll need something like MacDrive, a PC utility that allows Windows to mount and access HFS+ volumes. Look for it on Versiontracker.com (in order to use it, you'll need to pay for it).
    CAVEAT: I do not know with certainty that MacDrive includes compatibility with Multi-linked files. Multi-linking is part and parcel of the HFS+ file system format, so there may be no problem, but you might want to double-check to make sure Multi-linked files are fully supported in MacDrive.

  • IWeb on macbook pro with mavericks cannot import old iWeb files from time machine back up

    Hi! The apple store completely wiped my macbook and installed mavericks. I made a time machine back up before bringing it in to be completely wiped. Computer had bad software so they recommended me to handpick items and bring them over to new operating system without completly putting the entire time machine back up on it.
    So I did but my only concern is Iweb. Now I got Iweb back installed in mavericks I cannot seem to import any files from my back up to my application in my renewed computer with mavericks. I searched for .domains, sites and sites2 but I cannot extract anything and I still have some old websites stored with Iweb and use the application quite a bit...
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks a million....

    Not sure what you mean by extract but this might help;
    If you're running Lion or later the Home/Library folder is invisible and that's where the domian files are located.  That folder will be invisible in the TM backups also.  Therefore  you can extract Domain files one at a time out of the TM backups for import into iPhoto.  You would do it as follows:
    1 - download and run Find Any File to search for a file named ".site".
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages.
    2 - the search can take a while due to the structure of the TM backups.
    3 - select the backup from which you want to recover the Domain file.
    4 - drag the file from the search results window to the Desktop.
    If you recover more than one Domain file be sure to rename them after dragging to the Desktop so that you don't overwrite one with the next.
    5 - you can put the Domain file(s) in your Home/LIbrary/Application Support/iWeb folder but will have to make the library visible as follows:
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible in Lion or Mt. Lion enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Optionsmenu to bring the this window:
    To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • System Restore from Time Machine Back up and Mail

    Hi
    I have around 16,000 Messages in my Mail 3.2 Inbox. I use Gmail IMAP service. One thing I like about Mail is that next to all my messages there are these arrows that indicate whether I have replied to or forwarded a particular message and clicking on them takes me to my response to a particular email.
    I need to reformat my MBP HD and want to do a system restore through Time Machine.
    My question is, will Mail return to my current state (with all the arrows and tags) after I do the complete restore from Time Machine.
    Any help on this is highly appreciated.
    Cheers!

    Ah, ok, that rules that out.
    I think it wasn't backing up because it was showing I had files on the external but I couldn't locate them. It's my understanding that the external must be blank to back your computer up with time machine.
    No, it doesn't have to be empty (although Time Machine works best if it has its own, exclusive space).  Without the error message(s), we don't know what is/was wrong.
    I have run the Verify Disk on the internal and it says its all good.
    Ah, good.  That means you don't have directory problems.
    I have not run a Repair Disk Permissions. I am not sure how to do that? Is that also located in the Disk Utility.
    Yup, same window, different button.
    I tried to just run the update from the update software option in the apple on the top left. I also then ran the combo that I downloaded from the apple site.
    With what results?  Did they compete?  If not, what message did you get?

  • Can you recover files from Time Machine

    It looks like my wife had a total disaster today. First, a couple of days ago her iMac stopped working. I have been trying to get it to reboot and have tried repairing the HD using disk utility, but the directory is corrupted. Tonight, I tried to use TechTool but it did not seem to repair the directory. I am assuming that the HD has failed and will have to completely rebuild.
    To make matters worse, today the dog ate her Treo 680. So all her address book and calendar is destroyed on the phone.
    I have both backed up on TM, but when I rebuild the iMac will TM recognize this or can I pull the files from TM from a newly rebuilt iMac?

    I probably should have been clearer: I only backed up certain files, not the whole drive on TM. Thus, I am curious if I can recover say iCal, AddressBook, etc. since these data bases were backed up on both her phone and TM, and now that the phone is destroyed, I need to know how I can find these specific files on TM.
    I looked into the TM drive last night and its not clear where they might be.

  • I just bought the latest Mac mini i5 but every time I try to transfer my files from time machine back-up of my mini mid 2011 model I always come up with some sort of problem?

    I am so fed up with using time machine to restore my files from my previous mini. I have tried several different ways and every time there is some sort of problem. I just want to restore it back to the original setting and manually reinstall my  personal software. My question is: Is it better to reinstall osx using the recovery drive or downloaded from the app store. Also if you have already reinstalled from the app store does that effect the recovery drive?

    It does not make any difference it you reinstall from recovery partition or app store since in either case the OSX install files are downloaded from Apple servers.
    What problems (error message?) are you gettng whenb trying to restore form TM?

  • Can I copy files from Time Machine to another Mac (or flash drive, etc)?

    I hosed my hard drive yesterday (dropped the MBP on a hard floor).  Fortunately, I have a TM backup that was done only an hour or so before the accident.  It will take me a couple of days to get a new HD and install it, so I'm wondering if it will mess up the TM backup if I copy some of the files onto another system so I can continue stuff I need to do until I can restore the system.
    I do *not* intend to do any work, change files, etc on the backup drive, just want to work on them on another system, then copy back *after* the MBP is restored and functional.
    Thanks,
    Chuck

    That is very useful info!  Thanks.  I have a new drive in and the TM restore went fine, so I'm in business again.
    So you are saying that this method will not damage TM access to the backup file, as for example in needing to do a complete restore?
    Thanks again,
    Chuck

  • Retrieve ipad files from time machine

    I have a number of files on my ipad that are stored in time machine.
    Is there any way to access and retrieve these without totally rebuilding my ipad?

    It depends on which files.  If they are files that can be transferred to the iPad by connecting to iTunes then you can copy the files from Time Machine to your iTunes file sharing then transfer the files to your iPad:

    Can I restore photo files from Time Machine without the use of an external drive?  While I was transferring photos back and forth from a thumb drive something went haywire and my IPhoto was wiped clean!  When I click on Time Machine I see all the dated pages (without an external storage drive connected), go back to a date where all my photo files are there, click "restore", and I get the message:  "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in file cant be read or written (error code - 36)"

  • I can't restore 'library' with support files from Time Machine

    backup - I can't restore 'library' with support files from Time Machine - Ask Different
    Due to an accident, my entire applications folder with all the support files, including plists and caches got deleted.
    I tried restoring by files from the most recent Time Machine backups but I cannot retrieve my applications with the support files.
    I even tried it with migration assistant on a new image.
    Is this impossible?
    Must I start from scratch?
    Details of the ‘accident’
    I was using this app called ‘AppCleaner’ that also automatically deletes related support files which are normally left behind if one simply trashes an Application.
    In the search view, I typed the app name and I selected all the apps in the results using Command + A. Unfortunately, this selected every single Application in the Applications Folder in the background and I trashed and deleted all files.
    Anyway.
    I tried to restore the applications and library from my Time Machine Back-ups but failed to do so because I didn’t have enough space to restore. (I have a 11inch Macbook Air 2012 64GB SSD
    When I tried to restart in recovery mode, I had the same problem, I was disallowed the option to restore using my time capsule backups because my SSD didn’t have enough space for the backup.
    I then tried to restore it to a totally different but new image on a 64GB USB3.0 Sandisk USB Stick, but the process stopped after hours of being stuck around 30.4 percent and the computer was unable to boot, leaving me with a persistent verbose message suggesting it couldn’t identify the os, kernel or anything.
    I finally tried restoring the state using migration assistant on the very same SSD that had my files missing. This happened successfully and I have all my applications in the applications folder.
    But now I have 13GB free (I had 2GB before) and all my application support files, saved states, preferences, caches and customizations are gone.
    Basically, it feels like I just got a new macbook with my documents and itunes folder loaded on to it.
    How can I get my apps back to the pre-deletion state or is this impossible? Do I have to start from scratch? I thought my Time Machine Backups would restore it to exactly the same state, am I wrong?

    Message was edited by: Arsenenger

    Can you simply navigate to your Time Machine backup with the Finder? Treat it like an external hardrive and just look for your old Applications folder. /Applications/
    Also, quite a few apps put config and support files in ~/Library/Application\ Support/
    So you may be able to get the files from there as well.
