We can never stress the importance of backups enough. If something happens to your computer, you want to know that your documents and data are safe. For Mac users, backing up is made incredibly easy by the Time Machine program. Jason shows us how to back up your Mac with Time Machine in OS X El Capitan. TD Curran is now CityMac!

  1. On the other hand, would Time Machine allow me to selectively back up specific folders on my Mac?
  2. Does the external drive has to be completely empty to use it?
  3. That was quite a helpful video. I still have a few doubts though.
    -Does the time machine app backup even the OS of the Mac each time we do this?
    -I am using a 128GB flash drive on my Mac HD but I am backing up to a 64GB SD card. The time machine app still backs-up stuff to the SD card though.
  4. and how to restore a backup from Time Machine?
  5. if you have a brand new external drive it is highly recommended to take the time/extra step and write zero's to the new drive. this will prevent issues later on down the line with the drive becoming corrupted. and also encrypt the drive obviously
  6. nice job!!!!!
  7. How do I change the format to my hard drive ? The time machine doesn't allow to back up on my external hard drive.
    Thanks
  8. hey i would like some help, im pressing the ON on the time machine but there is no disks to choose from, it keeps searching for some Airport Base Station ..
  9. Thanks for the video. The Time Machine save only the data or the apps too. Like apple apps or others mac software? Thanks.
  10. I upgraded to El capitan... now I only can read my Seagate Hardrive can't save anything. Do I have to this process?
