Time Machine Question

[Aspect]

Say you have everything backed up with time machine, then you put a fresh image on your machine. Is there a way of syncing your last snapshot of files back on to your machine?

Does this make sense to anyone?

So if i got a time capsule, would i need to backup my files in the traditional way as well as using time machine? Thats what im getting at really.

if you had your mac backed up with time machine, then did a fresh install, you could then put your old machine files back on. i think thats what you mean.

How would you do that then?

Don't bother with ^

Create a full snapshot with Time Machine.. then when you reinstall Leopard choose to have the data imported "from a Time Machine backup" on the Leopard installation wizard.

That's exactly what i was after. Glad to know it can be done. Cheers mate
