   It does not look like one can delete files or folders from inside a 
Time Machine backup. So I will leave things as they are.

   Quick note here. My backup drive is not encrypted. I need to play 
with it some more but one thing I cannot do is delete files from the backup.

Re: Browsing Time Machine

2024-05-12 Thread Ian Robinson
Hi Dave,

My Time Machine backup is encrypted. Hence, when I attach the drive to the 
computer, a system dialogue pops up asking for the password. Once entered, 
there is a few seconds delay then the Seagate drive shows up on the Desktop. 
After that, I can browse the drive like any other drive; no other steps are 
needed.

That may work, but I think first you need to select the backup file and open 
the image mounter to get it added to the desktop.

When I’ve checked my own Time Machine backups, the easiest way seems to be to 
open the drive and navigate the folders in Finder in the usual way.

My Time Machine drive is set to show up on the Desktop. 
After pressing Command+o on the drive, there was a list of folders named with 
the date of the various backups, with the newest at the bottom of the list.
Within each of the folders there was a Data folder.
The contents of the Data folder is the same as the SSD of the MacBook. I could 
navigate to my user folder and open Documents, Downloads, etc. I didn’t

I do remember some discussion though.
1. Find the timeline areea by stop interacting and then going to the next
item .
2. The backup selection is a slider that can be navigated several ways.
ONce you find the date, then go back to your main finder area and find the
folder.

How you actually recover a selected folder or item, I am not 100  sure, but
I would expect a either the file menu or the contextual menu should have  a
selector for this.

BTW did you know there is now a universal Apple URL for all documentation
that includes historic items?
