just when i thought i'd solved it .......
i no longer have access to the computer from which this backup was created - it's offering me the option to unlink my imac? if I click that option, which imac will be unlinked? the old one (on which the backup was originally created, which has been wiped and sold on) or the new one on which i'm currently working?
