SubjectAny catches on restoring from an old Mac OS X v10.8.5 Time Machine HDD backup to new SSD on a 13.3" MacBook Pro (9,2; MD102ll/A)?
Message-ID<0Zednby4RbovlpfLnZ2dnUU7-cmdnZ2d@earthlink.com>
Hello.

It looks like I'll be helping my client get a SSD to replace his dying, 
dropped HDD, in his 13.3" MacBook Pro (9,2; MD102ll/A) soon. Since he 
still has his Mac OS X v10.8.5's Time Machine's HDD backup, I assume it 
is straight easy to restore like I did yesterday (took about three hours 
to finish) from a bigger HDD to a smaller SSD? Or will I run into issues 
that I don't know about?

Thank you in advance. :)

as long as all of the data fits, there won't be an issue.

Wait. How do I format the brand new SSD in MBP after swapping? I think 
Recovery has to be on the installed drive? Does MBP's firmware have its 
own recovery or something?

What exact model Mac is this? It's relatively new, right?

If you don't have a recovery partition (which is the case with a new drive)
and you have an internet connection available you can still use OS X
Internet Recovery by holding down the Command-R while starting the
computer.

Naturally this will be slower; so if you have a 8GB or larger USB stick
handy, placing the OS X installer on that would be preferable. But if not,
Internet recovery is the simplest method.

You can read all about OS X Internet Recovery here:

That's plenty new enough to use OS X Internet Recovery.

Yes, it's quite convenient.

No. What I am saying is Internet Recovery is slower than the normal
Recovery partition method since everything must be transferred over the
network. So it may be preferable to get a 8GB USB stick place the OS X
installer on it, so that the install happens locally rather than over
the internet which is naturally slower. So if you have or can get a 8GB
USB stick, placing the installer on it is the better (faster) way to go.
If you don't have that option, just do the Internet Recovery instead.

Ah. I should make a bootable USB flash media then just in case. I have a 
32 GB flash drive and already copied the installer app file.

That's what I would do. It only takes a few minutes to do, and you can
boot on the USB stick by holding down the Option key during startup to
install. Installation from a USB stick is quick.

I'll make that then since online took too long. ;) Wait, do I really 
need the installer to do Time Machine recover? I found 
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202294 and it has a 1 GB Recovery Disk 
Assistant that boots up the same Utilities stuff as the local drive, but 
externally. If I boot from it, then I should be able to restore from 
Time Machine's backup.

You can try it, and if it doesn't work, put an installer on the USB stick.

I tried. It seems to work. Much faster than online. I also have a copy 
of v10.8.5 app installer copy. :) It looks like I can use 
http://diskmakerx.com/ to make a bootable USB flash?

No need to bother with that if you have the Recovery Disk Assistant.

I just checked this out. It took a few minutes to do it online. Even 
though I am not planning to install a brand new Mac OS X from scratch, I 
noticed it offered Lion, but MPB had Mt. Lion (upgrade) for 3 years..

I have a v10.8.2 installer (app) copy even though it is a few 
point versions old. Will this be OK? I think I will put it on my 32 GB 
USB flash stick just in case online restore fails.

To do what?

I'm not sure what you are talking about. As far as I know, Internet
Recovery will always offer the latest version of OS X for installation. You
probably booted on a *local* recovery partition instead. 

As described in the MacWorld article I told you about, if a local recovery
partition exists (on any mounted volume available), the computer will boot
from that rather than doing Internet recovery.

That won't work since the USB stick won't be a bootable installer. You have
to create it a certain way, which is different depending on what version OS
X you want to put on the stick. For Mountain Lion, you do it by using Disk
Utility to restore the InstallESD.dmg disk image to the USB stick. Here are
instructions showing how to do that. It's pretty simple and takes just a
few minutes:

To see if it works and how long it took. It took a few minutes. At least 
I have an idea how it works.

Nope, it was definitely online since I had to enter the wifi password 
and had to wait a long time. I know this MPB came with 10.7.x (Lion) 
preinstalled and then I upgraded it to v10.8.2 (Mountain Lion).

Hmm. Why did it ask me for a password for wifi?

Ah, you mean it took a few minutes to boot and get to the initial installer
screen? That would make sense. The actual installation would also be much
slower, as you can imagine, since everything would have to be transferred
to the computer over the Internet.

Interesting. I was under the impression, based on what I read about it,
that it would always offer the latest OS version. Maybe I'm wrong about
that. At any rate, you can always upgrade afterwards to the latest. No
biggie.

It must have been doing the Internet recovery then.

No, I meant the Internet Recovery's Utilities options for Time Machine 
restoration, Reinstall Mac OS X, Disk Utility, etc.

Yeah, just extra steps, work, etc. IIRC, clean OS X installation doesn't 
include iWorks stuff that came preinstalled with the Mac computer?
