How to restore files from a Time Machine backup
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 авг 2024
- If you backup your Mac using Time Machine, you can recover lost or delete files on your Mac. You can simply plug in your time machine back up hard drive and enter the time machine.
You can either choose to enter the time machine from a folder within your computer or from the desktop.
Choose a date in time from one of your previous backups. You can now try and find the file that you lost. Select the file and press restore. Time Machine will copy and paste that file to the original folder in your current folder.
And it's that easy to restore files from a Time Machine back up.
To set up the time machine backup for the first time, watch this video:

What a clear, simple instruction. Thank you so much! I was able to restore more than 200 treasured photos from a recent backpacking trip. Well done!
After looking absolutely everywhere for what seems a common problem, your post was enlightening. Thank you.
Hey thanks for the video; just what I needed. Never done a Time Machine backup before this year when I got my new M1 MacBook Pro. Today, Dropbox setup messed around with Documents folder and that was frustrating. I’m really glad that I can restore that folder, and the video makes it pretty easy. Appreciate the help!
Hello and thanks so much for all the great videos that you put out. Please I downgraded my macOS from Sonoma to Ventura, and I am trying restore my MacBook Pro from the Time Machine backup, will it restore the Sonoma OS in my backup while restoring my Apps and Files? I only needed to restore my Apps and Files and not the Sonoma OS. Please how do I get to do that. Thanks and remain blessed.
Excellent video, easy to understand and quick to apply, thanks a lot
This is great! I may need to set this up. Thank you.
Thank you so much for that neat tutorial, i almost lost some files i forgot to restore since i deleted them, so thank you for this. And to remember to unplug my external after a backup so it last longer down the road. Thanks!!
Great info, still in 2024. I heard we can't use this method to retrieve one photo, I wish we could!!!
That was very clear. I’d like the same tutorial to restore photos.
This is SO helpful. Thank you so much. Whew....saved me!!
Thank you for the video. When I open Time machine it doesn't let me browse to select. Just today's file.
Yes, also this happens to me when I click on enter Time Machine. It opens, but it does not allow me to click on files from previous dates to look in them to find a file that I would like to retrieve (find), just today's file. There are no dates given to click on to open backed-up files from previous years, just a small horizontal line that doesn't do anything when I click on it. What should I do?
Where would pictures be stored when trying to find them after back up ?
Simple and useful tips 🙌🏻 . Thanks
Thanks man, very clear and useful.
thanks for this it really helped me
Excellent!
I recently upgraded my internal hard drive on my 2019 iMac bc the drive was faulty and couldn’t be repaired. Before doing so i backed everything to an external hard dive via time capsule. Now when rebooting the computer with Apple R and choosing to restore from time machine, it doesn’t show me a list of back ups. I tried running a disk repair but it didn’t seem to work. Can I start up the new computer and then retrieve everything another way (my files)? Thank you
THANK YOU. May you win the lottery.
Thanks so much
Cuestión. What about if you have and older system like tiger or leopard wen you back it up but want to try it on like said Yosemite or a never iversión in my case my data did not show off that’s why I’m so mad whith apple i could not recover my data
How do you restore "Reminders" from time machine? All mine were erased from my Mac when I used iCloud, even though I told iCloud to make a copy to my Mac. I can see them on iCloud and tried restoring them from iCloud to my Mac, but without and success. So I figured I could get it from Time Machine, but I don't know where the Reminders data reside. Have any ideas?
Thank you for this great information and delivered in your natural way. I so appreciate you getting straight to the point. Very helpful.
I have one question. I'm trying to restore the photos in my 2021 folder because I accidentally deleted/removed 9 of them from there yesterday. When I go into that folder, then into Time Machine, hit restore, it asks me, "The location to which you’re restoring “2021” already contains an item with the same name. Do you want to replace it with the one you’re restoring?" I'm not sure what to do here. I don't know that I want to duplicate that entire folder but I do want to get back the nine images. Any suggestions?
Hi...When I click on the date on the right of the screen it doesn't go back to the date I selected...Any ideas would be greatly appreciated..Thanks...Jay..
same, did you manage to fix it?
@@intrepidski9417 Yeah but I dot know how..🤦.I know the external hard drive has to be plugged in... Maybe try the Apple help?...
Can you search for a file if you don't memorize the date it was backed up?
I have Time Machine however, how do I pull up the backed up files/folders? I hit the time machine icon but nothing happens. I can’t see what is on the time machine 🙄
Thanks for the great video! Is there a way to restore an application fro TM? Thanks again. 👍😊
Hello, how can I restore my previous dock layout (not mac original setting) with Time Machine ? Thanks.
Great video. You do awesome work. I deleted a number of videos from iPhoto after backing them up on a hard drive that I use exclusively for RUclips videos. That hard drive failed and a local tech company could not open it. Now when I go into my time machine to check another hard drive that I use specifically for backups, my iPhoto folder doesn't show up anywhere so I cant retrieve my missing videos. It appears time machine is not backing up my iPhoto file. I don't have it checked off as an exclusion in the options box. Any ideas what is going on?
Where and how can we ask direct questions to the poster of the video? I see good questions here that are not answered. When I click on Enger Time Machine, the window opens but for most of
the previously backed-up files from last and previous years, there is no date, just a small horizontal line, to click on and that does not open anything when clicked on. Only the file indicated as Today's file has a date next to it. And when I click on that date, there are no files that open up that I can click on to find the file that I am looking for. What should I do?
great video, thank you
I accidentally deleted all my emails from the Mail archive folder. I do have Time Machine backup but the restore button does not activate. HELP!

What if your time machine backup is from another OS version? Can you still restore?
Mine doesn’t let me click the red backups?!
Mine either. Is screwy if you back it up on and older version of ti a new one it won’t do it. Don’t know why I los many files that I cannot recover so I’m done with apple
I'm on El Capitan right now and want to switch to Yosemite. I did do a backup of my materials and am currently even in the process of copying one of the partitions I did have on my main drive to an external one for the time being.... I know we're all rushed for time so allow me to come to my point..... My main objective is to copy EVERYTHING such as files and other data.... but, leaving the OS El Capitan behind so that everything can function happily within Yosemite..... How can that be done?
Why are my backups every 11 days and not every hour of everyday like I have it set to? Can you expand the dates and time s further? 🤔
Perfect! Big help
My Mac HD died. No problem I thought, I've got a back up. I plug in my Lacie, and I see all the old back ups going back to 2016, but when I clicked on them and tried to restore, nothing! I backed up my new hard drive to the same machine and no problem there or restoring files (hope I have done anything wrong there) so it's still working. The old back up dates are visible (I only backed up every 6 months so there aren't many). Is there anything I can do? I notice when I look at space, there's about 2.63 tb capacity in a 3tb lacie. As my replacement hard drive has only used about 100GB, does that suggest there are old back ups there I can't see, or is that illusory? There's irreplaceable stuff on there so I'll be heartbroken if they've gone. Is this a common time machine problem (failure to restore when an internal HD dies)? Thanks.
What is the equivalent of timemachine for windows ?
I cant click on restore
My restore button is grayed out? Cant restore anything ☹️
Nice
Need your help. New to macOS.I have a iMac w/1tb SSD running on Big Sur 11.1. I have a T7 1tb I was using as a Time Machine drive with a APFS format. After viewing some of your Time Machine videos I realized I've undersized by BU drive. I now have a 4tb 7200 RPM ext drive and have formatted it for TM as well in APFS and have told TM that it is by BU drive. Question is How can I move or copy the previous backups from the T7 to the new drive. It will not let me copy or drag n drop the files over tot he new drive. Seems like the new APFS format does not like to do that. Any help would be appreciated . Thanks, for all of your helpful videos.
I wish I had a good answer for you. I’ve never done that before. When I switched drives for time machine, I usually started a fresh back up and kept the old drive in the closet. I’ve never tried to migrate backups from two separate drives into one drive
@@Howfinity Got it.. I'll do the same. I was hoping I could off load the T7 and redeploy it. Appreciate the quick response. Tony
"Optimize Mac Storage" has to be unchecked in iCloud Preferences for this to work.
I cant thank you enough
