restoring OS X Maverics on MBP from TimeCapsule after boot drive failure?
Hi,
I've had my TIme Capsule for a few years now. Last year I decided to self upgrade the internal HDD to 3TB to actually fit back-ups from my two mac's at home. On my MBP the boot drive failed. It's unfixable unfortunately.
Please advise how to restore full system on a new HDD on my MacBookPro from TimeCapsule, after boot drive failure?
-i must admit, that i am not sure how to connect the laptop with clean/ empty HDD to MBP and make it boot and install it all from Time Capsule.
Moreover, I am not sure how to connect it to Time Capsule, so that it doesn't take 3 days to restore.
There is both an ethernet port as well as USB 2.0 one too.
please give a hand with that.
P.S. That 'old' boot driveis still barely running, I wanted to hand copy at least my iPhoto Library of 110GB in size, but it just keeps crashing, as the file is so big. I mean, I should have it all back-ed up on TimeCapsule, but .... 😉
