Hi Blitto,

You ‘A Pest’ … never ;-)

Time Machine backs up your entire system  (other than some things like system 
work files, most caches, trash, etc.), including ‘All User Accounts, unless you 
specifically exclude things.

Don’t exclude anything, let TM backup the whole system on the computer.

Hi again WAMUGers
Sorry - i am being a pest this morning.

Please can anyone tell me:
if I am logged in to the family iMac which has 2 other user accounts, when i 
run a Time Machine backup - does it back up the other user accounts as well or 
just mine plus the software/system stuff?
