Time machine not recognising TM backup file
I changed my startup drive to an external drive temporarily, started up from that drive and then reverted to the original internal drive and restarted. TM now wants to start a new backup. The old backup file is sitting on the backup disk ready to go but TM does not see it. How can I get the previous backup file to be available inside TM.
