Please help!!! How can I restore my music, pics and docs after replacing the hardrive?
Last week I had to replace the harddrive on my 2008 Macbook when it crashed while attempting to upgrade the OS to 10.6.8. Compuzone replaced and installed a new hardrive. I was using a Western Digital hardrive to backup Time Machine. After getting my Macbook back I turned it on and used the Migration Assistant to migrate my data. But, alas! I still can't find my music, pics and docs that were on the previous harddrive. When I click on the external hardrive I can not see anything. No pics or music. I thought I might drag and drop but I can't even find the files.
What am I doing wrong? Is it possible I might not have set up Time Machine correctly and none of my personal valuables had been backed up fro the last 5 years. Am I going to have to shell out another 200 bones for a data extraction from the old hard drive? What a bummer! Can you help a brother out?
