Restoring from File History created on old computer to a new computer
I'm thinking this should be easy, but it isn't turning out that way.
Computer A is dying, has a current File History. I am setting up Computer B and I want to use File History on B to restore from A. Instead, B can't see A's File History and just insists on creating its own. I don't want it to corrupt the backup on A's history
So the File History of A is on an external drive. I connect the external drive to B and go to File History. B just wants to write a File History of B and can't see the ones created by A.
Help, please!
Or am I just better off copying everything to an external drive and then copying it back to the new laptop?
