Duplication, but restoration not Photos of Time machine

I have a large collection of Photos stored on my external HD that contains thousands of faces defined. Trying to solve a problem of random reboot on my new iMac, by Apple, I eliminated the files of faces in the Photos on this computer, but believe that the face IDS are intact on the external hard drive because it has not been used recently for TM backups. The last time that he saved, he supported Photos that still had the names linked to the faces. Before I take the Time Machine, I want to copy the Photos, including the names of face, of a flash drive for safes (and possibly add that the names back into the Photos once that resolve us the problem of random restart). But I can only figure out how to 'restore' Photos of Time Machine. I don't want to restore the old file Photos, because the Faces can be the source of our problem of ransom-restart. Instead, I just want to download my last copy of TM's Photos, including the names, on a drive connected to the iMac. Can someone tell me how to download the most recent file of Photos of my external hard drive to a flash drive without updating the files of Photos now running on the iMac? Thanks for the tips!

You can not copy pieces of backups TM TM don't just clone files but save changes and maintains a database showing how to reassemble the file from a specified date - you can use the software TM to restore the things - you can restore to an alternate location and then select the restored library - however It is not recommended to make changes to the content of the photo library using external software because the library is a very complex SQLite database and any change can corrupt him causing loss of data

  • Restored HD from a Time Machine backup of my old iMac (stolen) from my new MacBook Pro.  Not all the files have been restored.

    My iMac 27 "(2011) so my wife 13 '' MacBook Pro (2011) were recently stolen after our House was robbed.  My wife got a new MacBook Pro and I restored it successfully its data (selected "backup restore Time Machine" during the installation of its new MacBook Pro).  However, I also got a new 15 "MacBook Pro in lieu of the iMac 27".  I have, once again, selected "Restore from Time Machine backup" (selected the iMac as the backup source) when installing my new MacBook Pro.  When it was finally over, I told Time Machine to inherit from the backup.  Unfortunately, none of the files in the My Documents folder or the photos in my photo library have been restored.  Was it a bad idea to try to use the backup of the iMac as a source for the MacBook Pro (both running El Capitan)?

    is it possible that your documents are stored on another drive which was not part of the backup plan? or is the HD in the big enough MBP to inherent the old backup.

    If you open the time machine with the original backup disc, you should be able to browse the content

    If the files are found, you can restore by right-clicking (or CTRL + left mouse)

  • How to recover a specific photo in photo with Time Machine library

    Hello

    I've always been very careful with my backups and I use Time Machine since I work on a Mac.

    I was wondering how I can retrieve a specific photo I would have deleted it by mistake a few months ago?

    I use Mac Photo enforcement.

    It seems that the only way to recover the entire library, but if I use this file recovered, I wouldn't have the new photo imported after that the backup was performed.

    How to pick up only the photo that I need?

    Thank you

    Roland

    You can not.  Restore the library on the desktop, open it with Photos, locate the pictures you need to restore, export to desktop, open your library of work, import photos and, finally, to remove the library restored to office.

    Tell Apple what missing features you want restored or new features added in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

  • Restore Safari bookmarks without time-Machine?

    Hello, all the

    Out of nowhere, one of my main folders Safari bookmarks disappeared. I'm a fairly knowledgeable Mac user and have no idea how they were deleted.

    I do usually external manual backups readers when I did some import an audio works and not very often otherwise (if I don't have a backup from a few months ago) but I added several important bookmarks since it went past 'poof '. It is also a way of saying that I have never set up Time Machine.

    So, how can I restore my bookmark.plist over current (tonight) without Time Machine. I know that Firefox - when I used to use it - kept many old .plists and you could scroll just to find later. It seems that Safari would keep much as well even without Time Machine configuration. At least I hope so.

    Thank you

    MacBook Pro 10.8.5

    Safari 6.2.8

    Is the .plist bookmark empty or missing?

    If lack then a drive recovery application can be able of recovering them.

    If it is empty while you are out of luck

  • Impossible to restore a file from Time Machine

    I messed up a data file and tried to restore from Time Machine. It produces the message "the operation cannot be performed because you have not granted access to the Finances of 2016 VDJS. I use an iMac 2009 beginning running OS 10.8.5. I checked permissions, and since I'm the only person using this computer all read - write permission. The version of the file I am trying to use to replace the messed up one was recorded only a few days ago and should have the same permissions. I apparently can't use disk utility to verify or repair permissions on the time Machine if the problem is with the saved file. I have another backup using DropBox, but I organized "intelligently" so that it records the changes made to the files they are saved on the computer, if the vehicle has currently the messed registered version. Others have reported this problem as a result of this message on the permissions, but not in similar circumstances, while the situation I'm in.

  • Restore specific files of Time Machine on El Capitan

    Hello

    I want to restore specific files from a Time Machine after then reinstalling OS.

    In Time Machine that only highlight the buttons front and rear back 1 week and the sidebar, but it develops, is RED and is unclickable. I can find files by searching for them but I want to restore all of my documents and specific applications to try to remember all is not practical. The sidebar being red means it's inaccessible and if not, how can I access content on specific date, the function used to work in Yosemite and back ups I'm looking are El Capitan so don't know why I can't access it. Thank you.

    Time Machine, please press the shift-command-C key combination. The windshield will show the mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible. Select the one you want and search for files to restore.

    If you need to restore from a backup of the hidden user library folder, first select a snapshot, and then press shift-command-G. A go to the folder dialog box opens. In this document, you enter the path to the folder. The dialog box will help you by automatically filling parts of the path when you start typing.

    The path starts with the slash character ("/"). Enter that. The rest of the parts is separated by slashes.

    The next part is the date and time of the current snapshot. Enter a '2', and the rest of the date should be filled in automatically. Press the right arrow key to access the end of the path. Enter a slash to start the next game.

    Next is the volume name (usually "Macintosh HD" unless you assigned a different name.) Start typing, then jump to the end and enter a slash.

    The next part is 'Users', followed by a slash.

    Then is your short user name. It is also the name of your home folder, which is represented by an icon of the House in the sidebar of a Finder window.

    Finally, enter "Library", and then press return. You should now be in the library folder. From there, you can move like in the Finder. You can also select another snapshot of the same folder.

  • Restoring iTunes only from Time Machine backup

    Hi all

    I just installed a new SSD on my iMac and the only thing I want to really restore is my iTunes library of music, playlists, movies, applications and device back ups.

    Is someone can you please tell me how I can restore only on the iTunes on the new SSD part?

    I was able to locate the iTunes folder manually in the time Machine up which is sitting on my Airport Time Capsule 2 TB.

    Would it be a matter of clicking and dragging the folder iTunes from the drive external hard Time Machine for the new SSD internal?

    Or would I need to use Migration Assistance or another method?

    Thank you very much

    If you have not changed anything, your iTunes library must be stored in the music folder, so it would be as simple as the copy of your iTunes library to your Time Capsule in the folder music of your SSD. In doing so, iTunes will detect your library the next time you open it and you will keep all your data on it.

    Another option would be to use the Migration Wizard, but keep in mind that the wizard can migrate the other files, as well as your old user account.
