Hi folks, i'm trying to restore my itunes folders from a timemachine backup on a win7 pc. is this possible? I tried installing the airport utility which allowed me to access the timemachine server. I see my old macbook air backup, but there's nothing in the folders to copy/paste over using a proggie like microspit synctoy. I just wanted to put my itunes library on my work pc.

Do you have a Time Capsule (the white quadratic box with Ethernet ports) or an external HDD connected to an AirPort Extreme / Express?

How do you connect to your Time Machine from your Windows computer, if PC is short for "Windows computer"?

I could do either pretty easily. It was kind of a boneheaded post; i totally forgot that its a completely different OS and language and can't be just a simple cut/paste. Its not critical that I get it copied to the PC, just wanted to out of convienance.
