[peel] Catastrophe!

[John Gray]

The ‘time machine’ facility on the Mac is wonderful, it helped me restore a lot of stuff.  I didn’t lose any photos, or other personal stuff.  But I definitely need to get a larger storage drive!  The ironic thing is I had recently gone with a neighbour to PC World to get her laptop attended to (under warranty) and had castigated her for not backing things up.

Thanks

John

I have had to reinstall my Mac OS, start again from scratch.  Fortunately most things were backed up.  However, my music folders had become so large and numerous that I had to be selective with my backups.  So my John Peel folder is OK, but some of the associated stuff has vanished.  I am sure I acquired some of these from links posted here, so if anyone can help with these I would be very grateful -
