Searching the web has not yielded any relevant results for me, thus I'm posting here in hope of shedding some light on the matter.
I currently own a 15" MBP. This machine is backed up to a NAS, using encrypted Time Machine backups. In a few days time, my new MBA will arrive. My thought is to "restore" the new MBA with the encrypted backup from the previous Mac. While I have successfully "restored" backups from old machines to new ones earlier, these backups were not encrypted as is the case now.
As long as I can connect to the Time Machine server on my NAS and supply the correct encryption password previously set, I assue I will be able to "restore" my new MBA with the old MBP backup without issues, or are there limitations to the encrypted backups that prevent me from using this procedure somehow?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
