IiMac restore using time capsule
I used time capsule to back-up/restore my iMac following a hard drive replacement per Apple's recommendation. Now my files are all locked and stating I don't have the permissions to open them. Somebody please help!
How did you restore them?
Our Time Machine eggs spurt Pondini.. is really great at this stuff..
See the whole section Q14-17 here. http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
And permissions as a particular issue here.
E9, E10.. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Permissions should not be an issue if you migrated the backup, as per the instructions.
But I have run across it, and ended up doing a double restore.. first time to external drive then fixed permissions as copied them to the actual Mac.
