I have a new 27"iMac following a smashed screen on my old 24" iMac. I have the time machine backup luckily!

But I have also managed to fix my old 24" with a replacement LCD panel.

So my question is this:

How do I restore from time macine to both iMacs so I have all my iTunes films & music on both machines? I also want to put all my iTunes on my Dads new iMac which is in a different house of course.

Any ideas??

Chris

Connect the Time Machine HDD to both Macs (at different times obviously) and use Migration Assistant (Applications / Utilities / ) to restore your user folder or your data or your applications from it.
