Want to get everything from hard drive backups from old iMac that where backed up with Time Machine onto new iPad.
Im stuck on how to do it?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2), null
Backups are restored on an iPad using iTunes not Time Machine.
Instructions here > Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support
Latest version of iTunes requirer a Mac running v10.8.5 or later > http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
You don't. You can restore the time machine backup to a Mac. You can not restore it to an iPad. As functional as an iPad may be for a computer, it is not a Mac.
Thanks for replying. Brain fart here.
What I'm trying to do is get everything that was backed up from my old IMac with time machine onto my new iMac. Not iPad as I typed in before.
This Time Machine resource is a little dated - http://pondini.org/OSX/Home.html , but its contents are still relevant. If you are setting up a new Mac and want to restore the data held on Time Machine from an old Mac the information on Setup Assistant vs. Migration Assistant should help.
New iMac
