I'm trying to restore an old Photos library from Time Machine but I get the following notification and can't proceed, help
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to restore an old Photos library to my mac from Time Machine on my external drive but I get the following notification and can't proceed:
"The library “Photos Library Old” is in a Time Machine backup. Open the original library."
I don't have the original library, only the one on the external drive backup I'm trying to restore. This is a different library to the one I'm using currently on my mac, and I don't want to replace my current one. I just want to get access to the old one. I tried the "Repair" option but again, I end up with the "The library “Photos Library Old” is in a Time Machine backup. Open the original library."
Any ideas how to fix it?
Thank you
