MY BOOK LIVE DUO USER MANUAL Starting a Backup. To start a backup at any time, select Back Up Now on the drop-down menu: Note: To delete Time Machine backups, use the My Book Live Duo dashboard. (See "Managing Computer Backups and Safepoints" on page 85.) Retrieving Backed-Up Items You might sometimes want to retrieve files and other items backed up on the My Book Live Duo drive. For example, you might have lost a file, or you want to see files from a week ago. You can retrieve individual items, multiple items, shares, or if your system crashes, your entire hard drive. To retrieve backed-up items to your hard drive: 1. Open the window on your computer where you want the item restored. For example, if you are retrieved a document, open the Documents folder. (If you are restoring an item on your desktop, you do not need to open a window.) 2. Click the Time Machine icon in the Dock, or select Enter Time Machine from the dropdown menu: All of your backups display in a cascade, with the most recent in front.
