How to transfer photos from Time Machine backup on external HDD to new Mac
I got a new MBP and when I was transferring Time Machine backup from external HDD while setting up, it froze and I ended up going to Genius Bar and having reinstalled OS. After the OS was reinstalled, I was told by Apple associate, something on my saved data on external HDD is corrupted and I have to manually copy what I want on my new machine.
Now I want to transfer all photos to new machine. I don't even know what and where to I have to transfer. Do I have to transfer whole Photo Library (that icon)? I tried to open old Photo Library without transferring and the message says:
Repair Library Permissions
This photo library is locked or you do not have permissions to make changes to it. Photos can try to repair the permissions.
I have no idea what to do. If someone can give me an advice, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.
