On new MacBooks (Big Sur, 11.2.3, M1) disk space is costly, because there is no alternative to apple parts. So i have NOT used Migration Assistant, to copy over all the old files from Time Machine Backup. (Same user name & number on the new Mac)
But when i try to copy files manually from the old Time Machine Volume using Path Finder i get a Permission Denied Error.
So i tried to copy using the terminal with cp
command. This worked when doing it with a sudo
in front.
But then i have problems with the copies. They can not be written and not deleted anymore.
Copying with sudo cp -RX source target
worked better. The files were write- and deleteable, but they loose i.e. their original date.
How can i copy from a Time Machine Backup without all these problems?
