format disk Time Machine
How do I format my Time Machine hard disk in order to make new copies of my new Mac? It may seem a strange question, but I have bought a new Mac and transferred everything on my old Mac to the new one. So far so good. Now I want to make new Time Machine copies of my new Mac, but it stopped copying at the time that I used my old Mac for the last time. Time Machine does not make copies of my new Mac, though the hard disk is recognized by the Mac as a Time Machine disk. Can I format the extern hard disk that I use for Time Machine. I want to make brand new copies of my new Mac (as if the old one never existed). How do I do that?
