Time Machine is a backup software application distributed as part of macOS, desktop operating system developed by Apple. The software is designed to work with AirPort Time Capsule, the Wi-Fi router with built-in hard disk, as well as other internal and external disk drives. It was introduced in Mac OS X Leopard. Time Capsule or Airport Base Station attached storage. But with Mac OS X 10.7, Apple have now made more advanced cases possible. As with most advanced stuff, you will need to open up Terminal to do it. The new tmutil command. Back to the HOWTO. In order to create a Time Machine backup on a network folder you need to follow these. If you are planning to get the best external hard drive for MAC, Time Capsule is the most reliable, and it comes with 3TB and 2TB storage space. Those who are in need of more MAC hard drive can consider having the 3TB one. Packed with so many interesting features, this Time Capsule is not comparable with any other storage devices.

'Bring Time Capsule home, plug it in, click a few buttons on your Macs and voila—all the Macs in your house are being backed up automatically, every hour of every day,' said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. 'With Time Capsule and Time Machine, all your irreplaceable photos, movies and documents are automatically protected and incredibly easy to retrieve if they are ever lost.'
Built to work seamlessly with Time Machine, Time Capsule lets users wirelessly back up all of the data on their Macs, find lost files and even restore all of their software. In the event a file is lost, users can wirelessly search back through time to find deleted files, applications, photos and other digital media and then instantly restore the file. If it's ever necessary, Leopard can also easily restore an entire system from the Time Machine backup on Time Capsule.
In addition to being the best way to back up a Mac, Time Capsule is also a full-featured Wi-Fi base station with the latest 802.11n technology. Delivering up to five times the performance and twice the range of 802.11g, 802.11n* is built in to Apple's iMac® desktop and the entire Mac notebook line up, including MacBook®, MacBook Pro and the new MacBook Air. Time Capsule features a sleek design with a built-in power supply and connections to print wirelessly to a USB printer. With Time Capsule, it's very easy for users to create a secure, wireless network for up to 50 users and set security restrictions such as Internet access limits for children's computers.
At $299 for a 500GB model and $499 for a 1TB model and a fully integrated 802.11n AirPort Extreme® Base Station, Time Capsule can serve as a backup solution for multiple computers as well as the backbone for a high-speed, 802.11n wireless network, making it effortless and affordable for everyone at home, school or work to protect their digital files.

When you buy a new Mac you likely want to transfer all of your data and applications from your current Mac to a new Mac. Here are instructions on how to accomplish this migration using a current Time Machine backup of your current Mac. I'm going to provide instructions for two different scenarios.

If you're just taking your new Mac out of it's box and turning it on for the first time follow the instructions in Scenario 1 – Setup Assistant.

Alternatively, if you've already turned on your new Mac and created a user account then follow the instructions in Scenario 2 – Migration Assistant.

Mac
Scenario 1 – Setup Assistant

Important Note: When you turn on your Mac for the first time, you'll be asked a series of setup questions. These questions are presented by Apple's Setup Assistant. The exact questions have varied across different versions of the Mac operating system. I can't list every variation in this article so these instructions will be more general and not precise, step-by-step instructions.

Preparation

Make sure you have an up-to-date backup of your current Mac, by doing the following. Click on the Time Machine icon near the clock. Read the first two lines which tell you when the most recent backup was performed. Ideally, it would read something like 'Latest backup today at 11:32 am'

Look at your external backup hard drive's ports to see if you're connecting it to your Mac using a USB or Firewire cable. Look at your new Mac to see what types of ports it has. You might need an adapter to connect your external, backup hard drive to your new Mac. If you store your Time Machine backup data on a Time Capsule then you don't need to worry about connectors since your new Mac will connect to the Time Machine via your network.

If your backup drive has a USB port then you should have a pretty easy time connecting it to your new Mac since all Macs have USB ports. However, if you bought a Mac that has USB-C ports, then you'll need either Apple's USB-C to USB adapter or an equivalent third party adapter.

If your backup drive has only a FireWire port then you'll definitely need an adapter since Apple stopped including FireWire ports on new Macs around 2012. If your new Mac has a Thunderbolt port on it then get a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter.If your backup drive has both FireWire and USB ports, I'd suggest you switch and use the USB port.

If your new Mac has only USB-C ports then it would be easiest for you to switch to using an external backup drive that has USB port on it. Use this USB-external drive to backup your current Mac and then use an Apple USB-C to USB adapter or an equivalent third party adapter to connect your backup drive to your Mac.

Migration or Transfer

  • Take your new Mac out of it's box and turn it on.
  • Turn on its bluetooth wireless keyboard and mouse, if it has these peripherals.
  • Plug an ethernet cord into the back of your Mac, if you use one.
  • Connect your backup hard drive to your new Mac. If your backups are stored on a Time Capsule then your Mac will find the backups once you connect your Mac to your wireless network, which you'll be prompted to do by the Setup Assistant. Keep reading.
  • The Setup Assistant will display a series of questions. For example, it commonly starts by asking you to select the type of keyboard you're using and your preferred language.
  • You will be asked to connect your Mac to your wireless network
  • You will be asked if you want to transfer data from another Mac or a backup of a mac. Select this option.
  • Your new Mac will indicate that it's looking for sources that contain Time Machine backups. It should detect either your external hard drive or your Time Capsule.
  • Select your desired backup source and then click Continue.
  • Follow the prompts to select all of your data and applications and start the transfer.
  • Sit back and be patient. This transfer can take hours depending upon how much data you have and the speed of your backup hard drive or network. I often start a migration at the end of the day and let it run overnight.
  • When the migration has finished, the Mac will likely restart on it own.

Post-Migration

  • A cursory examination will be performed of the applications that you transferred onto the new Mac. This examination could identify some old, incompatible applications. If any are detected, they will be disabled and you will be notified.
  • The Setup Assistant may ask you some additional questions about whether you want to enable various services and/or sign in to iCloud using your AppleID account. Answer these questions as you prefer.

At this point, the Mac should be ready for you to use. You can login to your user account and begin to test its applications and install appropriate updates.

Scenario 2 – Migration Assistant

If you've already turned on your new Mac and created a user account Migration Assistant then you'll need to follow a slightly different process.

Preparation

Follow the instructions listed in the Preparation phase of Scenario 1 – Setup Assistant. At the end of this preparation stage your backup hard drive, containing a recent backup of your current Mac should be connected to your brand new Mac.

Migration or Transfer

  • Turn on your Mac and login to the user account that you previously created.
  • Open the Migration Assistant application which you'll find inside the Utilities folder which is located inside the Applications folder.
  • Follow the Migration Assistant's prompts and select the option to transfer data from another Mac or a Time Machine backup. The exact prompts have varied across different versions of the Mac operating system. I cannot list every variation in this article so these instructions will be more general and not precise, step-by-step instructions.
  • Your new Mac will indicate that it's looking for sources that contain Time Machine backups. It should detect either your external hard drive or your Time Capsule. (If it does not see your Time Capsule then make sure your new Mac is connected to your home network.)
  • Select your desired backup source and then click Continue.
  • Follow the prompts to select all of your data and applications and start the transfer. If the user account name that you created on your new Mac matches the user account name on your current Mac then Migration Assistant will ask you if you want to keep both accounts or let the user account from the current Mac replace the account you created on your new Mac when you took it out of the box. The choice is yours. The safe thing to do is to keep both accounts but if you haven't created any data in your new account then you could replace it.
  • Sit back and be patient. This transfer can take hours depending upon how much data you have and the speed of your backup hard drive or network. I often start a migration at the end of the day and let it run overnight.
  • When the migration has finished, the Mac will likely restart on it own.

At this point, the Mac should be ready for you to use. You can login to your user account and begin to test its applications and install appropriate updates.
