Retrospect Backup from 2005...


Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone,

I have a retrospect backup of my old Mac Pro (1st Intel Generation) from around 2005 on a USB hard drive, and I was wondering if there is any way to access the files stored on it. I've downloaded the new client, but it seems it isn't compatible with the older backups. Any advice would be much appreciated.

A client isn't doing any good in this situation. You need the full application. There is a 30 (?) day trial available.

 

The current version (9) is able to restore from a version 6 backup set. First you need to recreate the catalog file and then you should be able to restore the files. Restore ALL of them and then make a new backup, so you don't have to do this process again.
