How do I confirm the iphoto data is backed up on external drive?
I have a mac mini. It is full with mostly pics and videos in iphoto. I bought a 1 TB Seagate external drive and backed up the whole computer via time machine. About 300 MB moved over. Before I delete the valuable pics of the kids - how can I confirm the photos and videos are in fact moved over? I went into the seagate drive, found Backups.backupdb which seems to be a directory of the computer that was backed up. UNder that I see the name of the computer, and things like:
library
desktop pictures
graphics...
a whole bunch of stuff. But nothing that looks like photos, pics, iphoto, etc.
What am I missing? "speak" slowly - I'm a PC convert to Mac that is struggling with the Apple way here.
