I just got a new iMac, and in the process of transferring files from my old MacBook, I seemed to have lost some music files (I hastily deleted the backup files of the external drive I was using without checking to make sure everything transferred over...:() I was originally going to just restore all of my data using my Time Capsule backup, but it was about 100GB worth of data, so I decided to keep only the necessary files and start fresh. The thing is, I never cleared my old files off the Time Capsule, so i was thinking I could get the music files from there. The only problem is I don't really know how to access the backup of my old computer on the Time Capsule with my new computer. Any ideas? Thanks!
