Backup - All Files
Hello...
Am I correct that if I do a Backup - All Files to an external bootable harddrive, then I could put a new harddrive in my MacBook, boot to the external harddrive and run SuperDuper to restore to the new harrddrive, and then boot from the new harrdrive as though nothing had happened? If so, can the new harddrive be a larger size than the original? New to Macs and SuperDuper so my apologies if this is a bit silly, but I want to be sure. MacBook 10.4.8 Intel Core 2 Duo Thx, O. |
Yes and yes. Just make sure you use the right partition format: an internal drive on an Intel mac MUST be partitioned with GUID.

Very good. Thank you! :)

Can't backup because user file corrupt
Not sure whether this is the appropriate place to start a new thread, but I've been unable to complete a backup because I have a corrupt user (home) file. I've launched a new user account, but I can't access the old one since File Vault won't recognize my login. Please advise how to proceed. TIA.

I'm not sure what you mean, Bruce. So, your FileVault is corrupt... but you can't access your old user files? That's because FileVault hides/encrypts them...

I'm really not sure what's going on here, Bruce. Have you called Apple? It seems like the problem is an OSX one...
