How do I access Time Capsule files from Time Machine?

I've backed up my MacBook to the Time Capsule but I can't figure out how to access the files from my MacBook's Time Machine. I need to delete files from my MacBook to make space.

Do you realise if you delete files then eventually.. or tomorrow, TM will also delete those files from the TM backup..


You can copy the files as a simple copy and paste to the data directory of the TC.. but there is no backup.. TC is a backup target unable to back itself up.


See Pondini Q14-18 for info about access to the TM backup files..but they are not useful to you..
