Hi,
On one of my Macs I've still Snow Leopard running and I'm using Time Machine for backups.
Question: After upgrading to Lion on that Mac, will I be able to continue "incremental" Time Machine backups OR will I have to make a complete Time Machine backup of the entire hard drive?
Many thanks.
iMac (27-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.7.4)
See Pondini's TM FAQs for starters.
Thanks, I know of Pondini's TM FAQs but unfortunately I can't find the answer to my question there.
Because of the new OS, Time Machine will want to backup the whole new OS and all other files affected by it. It's a lengthy backup. Then it will go back to incremental backups.
Hope this helps 🙂
Thanks, it helps.
