Time Machine doesn't erase old backups. That's only done when your Time Machine disk or Time Capsule gets full.


If you want to mean that you have connected the Time Capsule to another Mac to create another Time Machine backup, you should know that the old backup isn't modified, and you can still restore files from that old backup > http://pondini.org/TM/E3.html
