I am about to get a new Macbook Pro as soon as the 13" model gets refreshed, this will replace my 4 year old iMac. I want to start off with a fairly clean system and not boot from a time machine backup that is going to have a lot of crap on it.
The only things that I want to save are my iTunes media, my iPhoto pics ,my Address Book, and my iCal. Other than that, I want a clean system.
The problem with Time Machine is that I can only tell it what to exclude from my backups...and I don't know what to exclude while still keeping those 4 items backed up.
Can anyone help in telling me what directories I need to back up for these 4 items and I will exclude absolutely everything else?
Or if anyone knows any other tips here, it would be appreciated.
Thanks!
