Clickfree DVD Transformer for Macintosh: User Guide

Restoring my content

Note:

At the start of a restore,

Clickfree

asks you to insert a backup disk with a particular

number and date.
In addition, as the restore proceeds, if you have backed up the computer more than
once,

Clickfree

may ask you to insert one or more other backup disks with a

particular numbers and dates.

,

AND TO WHERE

?

When

Clickfree

restore runs without you changing any options, it restores all of the

content that was backed up, and puts it in the

Restored Files

folder under your

Home

folder.

If you prefer, you can easily tell

Clickfree

to restore your files to any place on your

computer’s hard disk that is convenient for you.

For details, see:

“How do I let Clickfree restore decide what to restore and where?” on page 20

LICKFREE RESTORE DECIDE WHAT TO RESTORE AND WHERE

?

You can allow

Clickfree

to make the decisions about what to restore and to where, but you

need to confirm what

Clickfree

plans to do.

To let

Clickfree

decide what to restore and to where:

1. Make sure that your computer is switched on and has finished starting up.

2. Log in, if that is what you normally do.

3. Connect the DVD Transformer to a USB port on your computer.

4. Wait for the

Clickfree

window to appear – this may take up to 60 seconds.

The

Clickfree

Welcome

window appears with the countdown, just as it did when you

used it to back up your content.

But this time you are not going to allow

Clickfree

to start the backup.

Because you have backed up content using the DVD Transformer, the countdown
window now shows buttons at the bottom to allow you to

View Files

and

Restore

files.
