Hi all,
I'm in need of some help. I want to completely restore my system based off a time machine backup onto my macbook (OSX 6.8) I'm aware that to do this I need to either have an installation CD in my machine and press cmd+R during startup. Though I dont have any such disk. My time machine is an external drive connected via usb and I've been told to hold alt/option during startup with my drive connected - supposedly I should see "Recovery HD" and then I know what to do from there but the problem is I dont see "Recovery HD" I only see my macbook's own HD
At this stage I've tried plugging in my hard drive in and out again & using a firewire connection but nothing has worked.
Please help! Thanks
