I have an old time capsule 3tb that I no longer use and has 1.7 tb of data. I can’t remember what machine used to back up to it but I’m hoping for a treasure trove of missing pictures.
I have multiple machines but don’t Want to over write the local data.
How would you go about extracting files from a sparse bundle to a Nas or external drive in High Sierra?
I’m lost.
Did you try holding the option key and clicking the Time Machine icon inn the upper right menu bar>Browse Other Back Up Disk

Not sure if 'Browse Other Backup Disk' would show backup content.
If unsuccessful, you may still try to connect to TC (need username/password), should be able to view a list of files (sparsebundle) with machine name (Macs using the TC as backup disk). Assuming backups are not encrypted, double click to mount on desktop, and you should be able to browse the disk.
Good luck.
I have not but I’m going to try right now. Thank you. I’ll report back snortly
Thank you!
