Yes. Thanks. Problem was I had a rare OSX system crash and forgot that I had checked increment copy options to set backup as startup drive. Afterward, I didn't notice that the startup drive had changed.
Now I need to know how I can transfer all my new mail files and other records on the external drive, that accumulated over the past weeks, to my internal drive. Some of these files are buried in Library folders that would be a chore to locate.
Would it hurt anything if I did a one time reverse incremental backup of the external to the internal drive, restart on the internal, and then set the subsequent incremental backups to do nothing after copying?
