You are. You find exactly the same thing I do. The trick then is to open the
backup you really want, then select the stuff you want and cut and paste like
normal. Now, I should add that an Apple customer service person advised
against this as it might corrupt some files: however, I have
Possibly corrupt, eh? Not too comforting, but if you've never run into that,
I'm not overly concerned. I have my absolutely vital files stored in a Box
account, just in case the worst happens. Well, a final check of my backups, and
I'll run the install. See you all on the other side! :)

Alex, You need to go to Finder.
1. In the sidepanel, find Time Machine backups.Do not open in side panel.
2. vo + j to backups.backup
3. Open backups.backup
4. Open the next folder.
5. Then you should see backups with dates.
To see dates more closely hit shift-vo + down arrow to interact with
Hi all,
I'm about to format my hard drive, remove my Windows partition, and re-install
Mavericks. I have a Time Machine backup that' I've been keeping since November,
so there are different versions of everything. Once my system is back up, how
do I restore my documents? I'll be re-installing
My experience is that you don’t do the time machine backup until after you’ve
done the reinstall. You want to go from Utitilies, select to do a time machine
backup, then, from there, you are presented with a table of drives from whitch
you can select the drive from which you wish to do a
Ray, did you mean restore instead of backup? Once my Mac has a fresh copy of
mavericks on it, I don't want to restore everything. I want my iTunes library,
work files, audio projects, and so on, but I don't want, for instance, my
Applications folder or other system folders. I just had a peek at
You could boot off the install Disk and restore from a time machine backup from
there.
I haven't done this often enough to give steps on how to do this but you should
be able to figure it out. If not, maybe someone else could chime in.
One thing that I will coshin you to do is to make sure that
Hello. just copuy and paste from the time machine back up from the shortcut

Hi Cara,
From experience, I did a wipe and install with Leopard and then
used time machine to pull a backup from wich to restore. This worked
like a charm for me. I just chose the latest date and I got
everything back. As a note, I did this after the install during the

You can also do a restore from the install DVD by launching the dvd as
if you were going to install the whole system. However, after you get
VO running and you've answered the language questions. On the next

You will then be

Ah, thanks Dan, this is possibly exactly what I want. smile
However, as a note of concern, when I did my last Time Machine
