Mac Time Machine Part 03: Complete Recovery

[jacquesgambl36]

This is a very "noiseless" video. =p

[MrFlyingRider]

Dude you couldn't remove those icons from the dock because they were running in the background :) that's what the blue light means. Also, if you really wanted to mess it up? Start trashing the system files. It wont let you trash the ones required to boot, though.

[ThySpaceGuy]

what's the name of the song?

[ADKIc3mAnX36O]

Why don't you just click Command A and right click it and remove or drag

[Appleaddict22]

you dont have to do the first 1 minute of this video..

[TalesOfWar]

@Appleaddict22 I think the point was he was showing that you could change all your settings and then get rid of system apps/files and the restore would put it back to how it was before. If you check at the end he goes to Google despite turning all network connections off at the start.

nice camera fail, thx for the info though

[Birdhouse19]

can time machine save additional software that you put on the mac or it gets deleted permanently when restoring the OS.

[familypp]

Hi, I have snow leopard, will my music also be back?

Btw I use a Time Capsule with Time Machine to back up...

[Rayzeur22]

@familypp yes they will be, but you shouldnt use time capsule TONS of people say they last about 18 months and then just overheat and dont work. you should just get a wired hard drive

[TalesOfWar]

@Rayzeur22 Old comment but nobody seemed to reply. The Time Capsules are fine, at least the drive itself is fine. The power supply in the older models packed in but Apple will replace them for you because it's a known issue. The drive itself isn't dead so you can just remove it and stick it into another enclosure or a PC tower or Mac Pro and it should be perfectly fine. I believe Apple will also transfer the files to the replacement TC too if you ask or just give you the old drive.

[MrWep1]

why did you delete some application?

[sneeuwvos]

Very nice tutorial!

[eluve59]

why do you have plastic covering your keyboard?

[mrandymcse]

eluve59-

I hate ergonomic keyboards, and the mac keyboard remained in its plastic because i never used it.

[eluve59]

oh ok. that makes sense

[flight23jordan1]

@mrandymcse What is the name of the song/artist in your video?

[flight23jordan1]

@mrandymcse Hi Andy, what is the name of the song/artist in your video? It's pretty cool, it reminds me of the marimba ring tone for the iphone.

Hi!

When you upgrade to leopard from Tiger, obviously your restore disks are Tiger. So, if you do a Time Machine backup of everything, can you still restore the OS with that the same way? Or is it a different way. Is that option, to restore from backup, on the Tiger disks?

PLEASE somebody help because I am worrying about this.

Thanks

Tom

[mrandymcse]

Time Machine is a new feature for leopard and you need the disc to restore your OS.I'm assuming you will borrow a copy?Anyway, check out my 1st vid on partitioning. You can make a partition with a copy of 10.5 disc that you can boot into (using an external drive on an intel mac).

[ItsMyNaturalColour]

Ahh ok.

I've decided that I'm going to now by a copy, so I should be good. Thanks for the video too.

Thank you for a great and informative video. I was afraid restoring my backup from Time Machine backups, however, because of your video, I can do it with confidence. Thanks a lot.
