Time Machine
Hi everybody!
I used to have a 2009 iMac that went beyond recovery and is already being recycled into something else. I always backed up my files to a Time Capsule using Time Machine app.
When I got a new iMac, I used the Migration Assistant to fully recover all my files, configurations, etc. Everything perfect!
Not quite! Now Time Machine is telling me there is no available space for continuing backing up my files.
After some digging, I learned that Time Machine does not erase backup files from another machine. Also, I’ve discovered that the way to erase old backup files from other machines is by means of “tmutil” command. It happens that when I used “tmutil listbackups” command to see all backups stored in the Time Capsule, it showed me only the back-ups from the new machine.
The question I’d like to ask you is: how can I erase some of the old back-ups of my old machine? Remember I no longer have the old machine!
Thank you in advance,
Fernando Freitas
