If you already have it set up, then just plug the drive in and that's it. It will start. If you do not go to time machine prefs in system settings and choose the disk. It might or might not erase what's already there if it is full. Take care. > On Dec 3, 2014, at 8:28 AM, Eleanor Martha Burke

I would like to do a back-up to my external hard drive, I know it is done through time machine. Would someone be kind enough as to tell me step by step how to do this? For instance, do I have to highlight the external hard drive first before going in to time machine, etc. Eleanor <--- Mac
