Repair a Time Machine error after restoring from Time Machine
Authored by: astrosmash on Nov 03, '09 08:43:17AM

I recently upgraded to a new MacBook Pro and I transferred my data using my Time Machine backup, just to see how well it would work.

The restore worked great. However, to continue using the backup on the new machine it will create duplicate versions of all your data.

Better advice would be to open Time Machine and delete your big-ticket items like your music and video collections. That should free up enough space to backup your new machine without losing your existing Time Machine history.
